Before everyone's eyes, a name suddenly appeared in everyone's sight, stunning them into silence.
Eighty-first, Lin Xuan, student of the Primordial Holy Heaven, Emperor Realm, Level 61.
Lin Xuan...
How could it be him?!
"It was him..."
Many people, without prior arrangement, felt a wave of dizziness.
Before the list was released, they considered many possibilities, but they never expected it to be Lin Xuan.
Even though he had recently defeated Zhang Yu, who was capable of defeating the second-ranked of the Ten Saints, and won the championship of the academy competition, in everyone's eyes, the distance between Lin Xuan and Wan Renshan, the leader of the Ten Saints, was still considerable.
Even Wan Renshan only reached the forty-fifth level, yet he managed to pass the sixty-first level.
If such an unbelievable thing had been told to them by someone else, they would never have believed it. But now, the facts are right in front of them, leaving them no choice but to believe it.
" Lin Xuan is actually this monstrous? He's just a freshman!"
The person speaking was completely bewildered, their tone revealing confusion and incomprehension.
When everyone witnessed this name reach the top, they were all stunned, and the area Demon-Subduing Hall was eerily quiet.
It wasn't that they couldn't accept the result; it was just that it was too shocking, so shocking that they didn't know how to react.
" Lin Xuan..."
Wan Renshan's expression was also one of astonishment.
His entire impression of this name came from Wenren Nian, but it was only a vague impression.
When he returned from the Demon Battlefield, a friend mentioned that he had won first place in this year's academy competition. At the time, he didn't pay much attention, just taking it as a joke and letting it pass by casually.
It's just that the college ranked first; it doesn't mean much to him.
But nowadays...
While he was stunned, a seed of shock also took root in his heart, sprouted, and exploded with a crack, leaving him speechless as he stared blankly at the light above him and his name on the list.
Having failed at level 45, he knew very well just how difficult it was to overcome even one level.
Lin Xuan did it so easily.
even...
He's still pushing his way up!
The moment the lights on the sixty-second floor illuminated, even Bai Wuya and Elder Qi were somewhat shocked.
They anticipated that Lin Xuan had a high chance of making the list, but they didn't expect that ranking at the bottom would be far from his limit.
He still has the energy to continue!
Outsiders could only stare at the Demon-Subduing Hall with shocked expressions. Demon-Subduing Hall, Lin Xuan lightly flicked his sword, its light sharp and a trace of blood falling solemnly. He curled the corners of his mouth, his posture carefree.
Sixty-three... that should be enough, right?
Every ten floors cleared, the reward resources would appear in the center of the tower after the challenge was completed. The resources in his Storage Bag had accumulated to almost the level Lin Xuan had expected.
It gets harder as you go on. Although he still has the strength to do his best to reach the top, his current rewards are enough, so there's no need to gamble on the probability of success.
The remaining rewards in the Demon-Subduing Hall can be collected next time.
"They're gone."
Having received the reward, Lin Xuan felt somewhat weary. He casually shook his head and left the Demon-Subduing Hall.
What is glory to others, the Demon-Subduing Hall worth fighting for at all costs, is to him nothing more than a means to acquire resources.
As for the remaining resources, when isn't it okay to acquire them?
From the outside, when people saw the light on the sixty-third floor dim and the light on the sixty-fourth floor never come on again, they didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or be shocked and astonished.
Even though Lin Xuan only made it to level 63, his ranking still placed him in the top 20!
They had witnessed such an achievement firsthand; how could they not be shocked?
The Demon-Subduing Hall rankings, which had remained unchanged for a millennium, finally welcomed a newcomer. This newcomer skipped sixty-three levels in one fell swoop, directly surging into the top twenty and forcefully occupying the twentieth position. How could they not be astonished...?
They were not just surprised; this scene was something they would never forget!
Whether it was the students, the holy master, Bai Wuya, or Elder Qi, everyone was astonished by the final results, and their hearts surged with indescribable excitement.
Elder Qi didn't even know what expression to make when greeting Lin Xuan.
His original estimate for Lin Xuan was only within the top fifty.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan exceeded his expectations and directly reached the twentieth.
At that time, Bai Wuya thought that Elder Qi was really overestimating Lin Xuan. Top fifty? That was really too difficult. Just getting on the list was already incredibly difficult, let alone top fifty...
His trust in Lin Xuan's talent doesn't mean he's blindly optimistic.
Even if Lin Xuan is the world's number one genius, his strength is only at the Perfect Emperor Realm.
First fifty?
Is it possible?
result...
"You and I..." Bai Wuya sighed deeply, but his tone was filled with extreme joy, "We really underestimated this child."
Lin Xuan gave them a huge surprise!
Upon making the list, he immediately achieved a top-twenty ranking, a feat comparable to legendary deans throughout history!
Suddenly, the wavering thoughts in Bai Wuya's mind took shape, no longer fluttering in his heart, but becoming fixed and tangible.
Bai Wuya murmured to himself.
His successor, the next dean...
Once he verified Lin Xuan's identity and confirmed there were no problems, the position he had been waiting for would finally be filled!
And, no one else but him!
For several days in a row, the entire Primordial Holy Heaven was abuzz with discussion about Lin Xuan.
This dark horse, who has only recently joined the Primordial Holy Heaven, is truly astonishing.
No one expected that Wan Renshan one among the Ten Saints, couldn't compare to him.
This is really...
The heated discussion was accompanied by regret.
After the Demon-Subduing Hall incident that day, they waited outside for a long time but didn't see Lin Xuan. Undeterred, they mustered up their courage to ask the Dean, and only then did they learn some news from him.
He chuckled and said, "You mean Lin Xuan? He's already left."
Both he and Elder Qi saw Lin Xuan leave the Demon-Subduing Hall and sensed the array on Lin Xuan's body that concealed his aura and figure. Knowing that this child didn't like being surrounded or flattered, they naturally didn't go forward to disturb him.
That's certainly true.
Lin Xuan wasn't one to like being high-profile. Before leaving the Demon-Subduing Hall, he knew that his ranking would likely cause a sensation, and there were probably quite a few people outside.
So he simply activated a small-scale formation that temporarily concealed his presence and blended into the crowd before leaving.
Unfortunately...
"These portable array plates are running out." Looking at yet another array plate that had been used up, Lin Xuan shook his head regretfully.
He was not proficient in formations; his knowledge of formations was only superficial, enough for his needs.
The array plates on his body were prepared for him by Wu Liang and Yunli.
Knowing that their master disliked crowds, the two of them had prepared many array plates well in advance.
Now that the group has disappeared and his disciples are no longer around, it should be a rare moment of peace and quiet, but Lin Xuan still feels somewhat uneasy.
"That's enough."
Thinking about this, I can't help but feel a little sentimental.
Lin Xuan shook his head, erasing all sorts of thoughts from his mind, and turned to organize the resources he had acquired in the Demon-Subduing Hall.
We have enough resources; it's time to improve ourselves.
