"Because I... possess the Extreme Dao Sword!"
Xie Feng's mind raced, and a giant silver sword appeared out of thin air.
Sword Qi is invincible! Sword Intent is invincible! Sword Radiance is invincible!
The moment the sword was drawn, the sky darkened, sand and stones flew, and mountains collapsed!
As soon as the Sword Might was first revealed, countless Nether Clan were swept into the tornado formed by the Sword Might, their souls scattered and their spirits destroyed.
When the Extreme Dao Sword is drawn, its sharpness is unmatched!
Xie Feng raised his hand, moved it slightly, and the Extreme Dao Sword whistled out, killing ten Dao Master Realm elders with a single strike!
Netherworld's pupils contracted.
The other members of the Nether Clan were also stunned.
Even after eliminating so many people, Xie Feng was still dissatisfied. He shook his head. "Why didn't you line up in a row? That way, I could have killed you all with one sword strike... Spreading out like that, you really don't know any better."
Netherworld: "..."
What the...
I really want to beat this person to death!
He raised his eyes, his killing intent surging, and said, "Is this the power of the Extreme Dao Sword? This clan leader... wishes to witness it for myself!"
At this moment!
Suddenly, ten thousand rays of purple light shone down on the earth.
Thump!!
The heavens resounded, signaling the announcement of the new rankings!
[Second Place]
Name: Pei Jue
Cultivation level: Ninth Stage of the Dao Venerable Realm
Belongs to: Star Clan
Potential: SSSS
Overall assessment: 92
"Hiss! Pei Jue! I heard this is the Star Clan Chief!"
" The Star Clan has always been a reclusive clan, but for some unknown reason, they suddenly revealed themselves to the world thirty years ago and announced that the position of clan leader would be inherited by a child who was only ten years old!"
"This Pei Jue is truly the strongest prodigy! He ascended to the throne at the age of ten, was invincible among the younger generation at twenty, and reached the unprecedented Ninth Stage of the Dao Venerable Realm at forty! Even though he's not in the martial world, everyone in the martial world has to call him 'brother'!"
"Wait! This person is universally acknowledged as the best in the world, why is he only second? That shouldn't be..."
"If he's second, who dares to claim invincibility?!"
Even if you buried me, I still couldn't imagine who could be stronger than him!
When the second piece of information appeared, the noise in the city was even greater than usual.
They found it unbelievable!
Pei Jue, the youngest patriarch in the history of the Star Clan, the most talented genius, and the undisputed number one prodigy in the world, is actually ranked second?
So who will be number one?
Or rather...
Who has the power to be above him?
All eyes were on the Heavenly Ranking, everyone watching intently, waiting for the final appearance of the top spot...
And this name will inevitably become the strongest focus and the most attention. If his strength cannot convince the public, if he cannot make a name for himself, it will cause a huge uproar in the world!
All eyes turned to him...
They waited anxiously, eager to see if the result met their expectations and to see the final name.
They had never felt time pass so slowly...
Purple light swirled above the Heavenly Ranking, shining with boundless brilliance, and finally, lines of information appeared!
[First Place]
Name: Xie Feng
Cultivation level: Seventh Stage of the Dao God Realm
Affiliation: Xuanji Sect
Potential: SSSSS
Overall assessment: 100
The number one on the Heavenly Ranking has appeared!
at the same time!
People were utterly shocked!
"Who is Xie Feng? My God, where did he come from?!"
" Seventh Stage of the Dao God Realm?! Dao God Realm! How can this suppress Pei Jue, who is at the Ninth Stage of the Dao Venerable Realm? Huh? How can this be!"
"Help! It's the Xuanji Sect again! Which sect is this? They occupy eighth, sixth, third, and first place on the Xuanji Sect Heavenly Ranking! I'm impressed! They're too awesome!"
"His potential is also unprecedented, SSSSS!! Can anyone really reach this level?! A perfect score in overall strength! A perfect score! Look at the second place, only 92!"
"What kind of monster is this, unmatched in its speed and awe?!"
Then, the video appeared!
In the video, a majestic green mountain gradually comes into view as it approaches. A figure in green stands on the mountaintop. Although the face is not visible, the figure exudes an awe-inspiring presence!
A person, it seems, transforms into a Chaos!
Enigmatic and powerful, shrouded in mist!
He stood there, like a god, or a demon lord; saint and demon, light and darkness, were perfectly blended within him, flawless.
The world fell silent; everyone was too stunned to speak, overwhelmed by the overwhelming power emanating from the video.
Above a swirling nebula, Pei Jue looked up at the Heavenly Ranking, his dark green eyes calm and composed.
"Clan leader! Have you even looked at the Heavenly Ranking?! This is outrageous! Where did this Xie Feng come from? Why does everyone believe in the authority of the Heavenly Ranking? The Heavenly Ranking says someone has strong potential, so they're strong; the Heavenly Ranking says someone's overall assessment is whatever it is? What makes them so special?!"
A boy dressed in black hurried over. He had thick eyebrows, a round face, and still looked quite young. At that moment, his face was full of anger.
He was Pei Jue's bodyguard.
Pei Jue slowly put his hands behind his back, glanced at the young man, and said calmly, " Xiao Tian, calm down. My master taught me that one should strive to be the best, and if you can't, you should reflect on yourself. When you encounter someone you are not as good as, first calm down, treat them with a normal attitude, and then examine yourself. If you find that it is your own laziness, then work hard to improve yourself. As the saying goes, 'When you see someone virtuous, think of emulating them.' This Xie Feng must have extraordinary qualities to become the top of the list."
Xiao Tian frowned. "Why don't you doubt the Heavenly Ranking? Don't you think it's too mysterious and bizarre?!"
Pei Jue countered, "Do you suspect it's some kind of tactic? I've had my doubts too, but facts speak louder than words. Or, to put it another way, why must I be invincible?"
Xiao Tian snorted and turned his head, "I... just inexplicably dislike Xie Feng!"
"Is it because you feel he took away the place that originally belonged to me?"
"That's right!"
"So, why should I be number one? There are always people better than you, and mountains higher than mountains. Perhaps I'm not strong enough and need more training. There's a saying that goes, 'Only in the cold of winter do we know the pine and cypress remain evergreen.' Don't you want me to become a pine and cypress?"
Pei Jue patiently offered guidance.
Xiao Tian scratched his ear. "Clan leader, you're lecturing again! I... I don't understand!"
Pei Jue said, "What I mean is, accept the fact that your clan leader is not a peerless genius, understand?"
"I understand..."
No, you don't understand. You're still resentful, but you just don't want to argue with me.
"..."
Xiao Tian was speechless and lowered his head.
Pei Jue gazed at the purple-gold list in the sky, his eyes slightly narrowed, and murmured, "For some reason, the Xuanji Sect ' gives me a strange sense of familiarity. It's as if I've vaguely heard it somewhere before..."
Xiao Tian said, "Look at you, you're so angry you're hallucinating! How could you have ever heard of such a thing! There's no such thing as the Xuanji Sect in the entire Dao Realm."
Pei Jue was silent for a moment, then turned and asked, "By the way, Xiao Tian, what brings you here?"
"Your uncle is up to his old tricks again! He insists you go back, saying you've been in seclusion for several months and it's time for you to return!"
"Are these his exact words?"
"Ah? Yes, yes..."
"It would be a miracle if he spoke to me so politely. Never mind, let's go."
Pei Jue shook his head, flicked his sleeves, and disappeared with Xiao Tian into the nebula vortex.
