"The 27th ranked Divine General Fushan the closest to us!"
After glancing through the top thirty on the list, the person in charge immediately replied.
To be selected by the Donglin Government, he must have been highly skilled and had worked very hard. He was introduced as a general in the army, stationed in the Southern Theater of the Federation.
They usually stay at the military base in Red Mountain.
It is separated from this place by seven administrative regions.
At the Heavenly River's current speed, it should arrive in about two days.
"A military Divine General..."
Ning Chuan murmured softly.
The scope of the Chosen Battle does not include the military, so he cannot challenge them to a duel under the pretext of offering guidance.
However, he is also a high-ranking military officer, so the other party is unlikely to refuse.
"Let's choose the Divine General Fushan and set off."
Ning Chuan made up his mind.
The person in charge took his leave and went to the cockpit to relay Ning Chuan's instructions.
Ugh!
The Heavenly River changed direction and headed south, its engines unleashing powerful acceleration, moving incredibly fast, almost tearing the wind apart.
He left Xiyou at noon that day.
Meanwhile, a piece of news swept the internet, stealing a lot of the discussion surrounding the Divine General Ranking.
It's related to Ning Chuan.
After the Knight Rankings were updated, he was ranked number one!
Lu Zhan's victory over the Black-Scaled Eagle, Fifth Heaven Realm, did not become widely known.
The judges Divine General completely unaware.
In fact, they were unaware that Lin Longxing had been killed by Ning Chuan.
Ning Chuan was ranked first because he decisively defeated the previously second-ranked Old Man Sirius in the previous one-on-one battle.
Ning Chuan remained calm upon learning of this and didn't pay much attention to it.
To put it bluntly...
It's just a list!
However, the Federation public reacted quite differently, with a great uproar.
"Reaching the top of the Knight Rankings at the age of eighteen is unprecedented and awe-inspiring!"
"To be honest, I'm not envious or jealous, because I wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing!"
Many people were deeply moved and unable to calm down.
Ning Chuan's ascent to the top of the Knight Rankings was expected, but they didn't anticipate it would happen so quickly.
Spring Festival hasn't even arrived yet.
Ning Chuan is too young!
At eighteen years old, the Federation's number one Knight... even the title of the number one Knight of the Martial Star —the two seem completely unrelated.
However, it actually happened to the same person.
It's truly shocking.
Unrest has erupted in various places, and related discussions are emerging one after another.
One comment in particular gained immense popularity, sparking widespread discussion among the public!
Many martial arts masters joined in, engaging in heated debates.
That's a problem that involves Ning Chuan's strength.
"Where would the top-ranked knight on the Knight Rankings rank on the Divine General Ranking?"
Both lists are produced by the government and have extremely high credibility, covering almost all the powerful figures in the Federation.
There is no overlap between them.
This gave everyone a chance to discuss!
Knight and Divine General are separated by a whole realm, worlds apart, but the profound Law Mystic Truth also greatly enhance their combat power.
Cross-border victories are not isolated incidents.
Otherwise, there would be no such thing as Titled Knight.
Ning Chuan, in particular, already possessed combat strength comparable to a Divine General when he was already at the Dharma Aspect Realm.
"I don't know the exact numbers, but it's definitely in the top 100!"
A renowned martial arts master stated this with certainty.
Because the Old Man Sirius, whom Ning Chuan killed, had fought against several hundred Divine General, and the two were evenly matched!
Ning Chuan is definitely stronger than them!
"The 'top 100' label is too general. The 99th and the 1st place are both within this range, but their abilities are worlds apart!"
Many people were dissatisfied with this answer and wanted to know the specific rankings.
"Out of the top 50, I guess. After all, I'm a whole realm behind; going any higher isn't realistic!"
Someone spoke, but it didn't elicit much agreement.
His words were unfounded.
Simple logical deductions cannot convince the public. Ning Chuan's extraordinary achievements are not a one-off occurrence; many people have learned their lesson.
"Stop arguing! We'll soon find out roughly how strong Ning Chuan is!"
At this point, a newspaper made a statement, speaking with certainty, and uploaded a photograph.
The pixels are somewhat blurry.
However, it is still clear that the film is of the Heavenly River, with its trailing light and shadows as it speeds through the high sky.
The photo has an accompanying text.
"I took this photo by chance while exploring the border area between West Forest and Xiyou!"
Upon seeing this picture, many people's first thought is that Ning Chuan is about to conquer Xiyou!
Of course, they knew that their target wouldn't be any local geniuses from Xiyou.
Those people are not qualified to fight.
As expected, Ning Chuan's trip to Xiyou is aimed at the strongest expert, the Dragon Martial Divine General!
Divine General Ranking!
The Federation was instantly abuzz with excitement, with countless people anticipating a major battle between the two sides.
"If Ning Chuan loses, needless to say, he'll be ranked after the Dragon Martial Divine General. If he wins, we can still estimate his approximate ranking based on the difficulty of the battle!"
"That photo was taken at nine o'clock in the morning. Judging by the time, Ning Chuan has already found the Dragon Martial Divine General!"
Many people were excited and went online to watch the live broadcast of the Ning Chuan Chosen Battle.
However, the screen remained black, and the broadcast never started.
The same applies to other online media; there is no relevant information.
Late into the night, many people couldn't hold back any longer.
"Could it be that Dragon Martial Divine General n't in Xiyou?!"
"It can't be that the Dragon Martial Divine General avoiding battle, can it?!"
Similar speculations have emerged one after another.
Ning Chuan has a brilliant record and is determined to become Path of Invincibility. No one thinks he would avoid battle.
But soon, a piece of news went viral online, shattering the many speculations.
Dragon Martial Divine General spoke by name, saying, "I was full of anticipation and ready to fight, but I haven't received any message from Ning Chuan!"
His words subtly revealed a hint of dissatisfaction.
Everyone was stunned, not understanding why Ning Chuan did not challenge the Dragon Martial Divine General to a duel.
Not prepared?
Or was something urgent come up?
The related doubts did not last long.
Xiyou's government account released an announcement stating that the Heavenly River sent a message yesterday evening indicating its imminent arrival, but changed its mind at 9:00 AM this morning, canceling its mission and having already left Xiyou.
The announcement was worded strictly and showed no emotional fluctuation.
However, it specifically points out the time difference in which the Heavenly River changed its mind.
Anyone with discerning eyes can see that this occurred around the time the Divine General Ranking appeared.
The internet fell silent for a brief moment.
Many people who are concerned about this matter are feeling uneasy.
Xiyou is the strongest of the administrative regions that Ning Chuan is fighting for.
But he left on his own initiative!
Then consider this specific time period.
The same thought unconsciously popped into many people's minds.
Avoid war!
Upon seeing the ranking of the Dragon Martial Divine General, Ning Chuan felt he was no match for him and changed his itinerary.
But what puzzled everyone was that Ning Chuan didn't seem like that kind of person.
Therefore, they did not rush to make any statements.
"Why are there no related comments? Faced with the evidence, the online trolls can't cover it up anymore, huh!"
Suddenly, someone spoke, their voice filled with mockery and sarcasm.
Ning Chuan has a large following in the Federation, and upon seeing this, many people were immediately displeased and left a series of comments criticizing him.
" God Ning hasn't explained yet, why are you in such a hurry!"
" Ning Chuan has no fear of battle. Even when he was still in the Awakening Stage, he dared to fight a Martial Artist spy from the Heavenly Martial Realm to rescue his female classmate!"
