In the central square of the inner city stood two huge stone tablets that were ten meters tall. The surface of the stone tablets was as smooth as a mirror, like two tall glass pagodas.
These were the Qilin Ranking and the Qian Heaven Ranking which covered the various county cities.
The surface of the stone tablet was filled with portraits from top to bottom. There were also faint words behind it.
At this moment, the stone tablet on the left suddenly emitted a faint green light.
“The Qilin Ranking has changed!’
The passersby were attracted by this scene and all the busybodies surrounded him.
“295th! The Rain Overturning Sword, Lang Fanyun, has left the rankings!’
“How is this possible? This person seems to be the successor of the Heavenly Saint Grotto -Heaven?
“Could it be that the aristocratic family has made a move?
The onlookers discussed animatedly. Lang Fanyun was off the rankings, but no newbie replaced him.
There were only two possibilities. The first was that Lang Fanyun had used a special method to get off the rankings.
The other was to kill an expert who was powerful but did not meet the requirements to be on the rankings.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Just as everyone was guessing, a dazzling green light suddenly bloomed above the Qilin Ranking.
“Look, the top 50 has changed the rankings!’
“42nd! Name: Su Tianqi, Origin: Cloud Prefecture City’s Su family, Martial Arts: Heavenly Profound Policy, Realm: Four Qi Grandmaster!”
“The Su family, one of the three aristocratic families of Cloud Prefecture, the legacy disciple of the Heavenly Saint Sect!”
“First, there was Qi Yuntian, then Qi Xuanming, and now, there’s Su Tianqi. If a Martial God reappears in the world, there’s hope for the revival of martial arts!”
The onlookers were mainly martial artists. Now that the martial path was weak, almost all the positions at the top of the Qilin Ranking and the Qian Heaven Ranking were occupied by people with spirit beast bloodlines and descendants of the Divine Weapon Family. There were very few geniuses who chose the martial path.
At this moment, a man and a woman stood at the back of the crowd and looked at the Qilin Ranking.
The man was handsome and wore blue clothes. The woman was wearing a white dress that covered her face, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes.
The two of them looked to be in their mid-twenties. Their temperaments were refined and their appearances were outstanding. When they stood together, they looked like a perfect couple.
They were Su Tianqi and Su Ningqiu, who were traveling in the Cloud Prefecture
“Cousin, they’re all praising you! Before the Central Prefecture Trial opens next year, you can definitely enter the top 20 and let everyone know your name!” Su Ningqiu was very happy to hear everyone’s discussion.
“It’s not so easy to enter the top 20.” Su Tianqi was very pleased, but he was not complacent.
“I believe Cousin can definitely do it!” Su Ningqiu was confident in him.
“I’m still far from it. I have to at least reach the Five Qi Perfection Realm and cultivate the Heavenly Profound Policy to the Third Level.”
“If I cultivate the Heavenly Profound Policy to the Third Level, won’t I be able to challenge Snake-level experts?”
“This is the foundation to enter the top 20,” Su Tianqi said seriously.
“Although they’re all on the same ranking, the top 20 all have the ability to fight above their level.”
“That exaggerated?!” Su Ningqiu’s eyes widened.
“Didn’t you notice that there’s not a single pure martial artist in the top 20? Qi Xuanming cultivates the Heavenly Saint Sect’s ultimate technique and has the Golden Sword Body. Last month, he just advanced to the 25th place. If he wants to enter the top 20, he probably has to break through in his sword technique or break through to the Five Qi Realm.”
“The difference between a martial artist and a descendant of an aristocratic family of the same level is so big?”
“It can’t be helped. These people in the top 20 either have a powerful spirit beast bloodline or have been recognized by a divine weapon and can control a complete low-grade pseudo-divine weapon. Once these people activate the power of their bloodline or activate the divine weapon at all costs, it’s really difficult for martial artists of the same level to resist.” Su Tianqi’s expression was solemn.
“Martial artists can only rely on themselves. The difference is too great.” Su Ningqiu pursed her lips, looking a little dejected.
“If there was still a Martial God alive who could build a ‘spirit pool’, martial artists would be able to greatly weaken the influence of the power of the divine weapon by soaking in the water of the spirit pool. They would not suffer a huge loss against descendants of aristocratic families of the same level.” Su Tianqi sighed.
Even though his heart was focused on martial arts and his will was firm, he still felt that the path ahead was bumpy and he did not know where it led.
“The spirit pool left behind by the sect a thousand years ago is already close to drying up. Only the Fiend Condensation Martial Saint is qualified to soak in it. Otherwise, Cousin will definitely be able to defeat all of them!”
Su Ningqiu clenched her fists.
“Even if we soak in the water of the spirit pool, martial artists still don’t have the advantage against spirit beast Bloodline Holders of the same level.” Su Tianqi smiled bitterly.
“Then wouldn’t Young Master Han and Young Master Lang be in danger?” Su Ningqiu’s expression changed slightly.
His cousin had obtained information that Murong Qi was looking for trouble
with the Furious Flood Dragon Gang.
The two of them rushed to Yuan Chang County without stopping to inform Han Zhao and Lang Fanyun.
However, when they arrived at Yuan Chang County, they encountered a challenger on the way and were delayed.
“Brother Lang must have thought of a way to get off the rankings to avoid Murong Qi.”
Su Tianqi looked up at the position above the Qilin Ranking. He did not believe that Lang Fanyun was dead.
Through some special methods, the people on the rankings could be removed from the rankings. However, it was very troublesome.
“Brother Han’s Furious Flood Dragon Gang has already joined the Qi family. The Qi family shouldn’t stand by and do nothing.” Su Tianqi’s tone was a little uncertain.
“Is Murong Qi really that powerful?” Su Ningqiu asked.
“Murong Qi was on the rankings two years ago. In his first battle, he killed the prince of the State of Qi, Jiang Min, who was originally ranked nineteenth. Jiang Min has an astonishing battle record of killing a First Fiend Martial Saint.”
“How is this possible?” Su Ningqiu was shocked. Murong Qi already had such strength two years ago. Now, he would probably be even stronger.
“Look at the 18th place, Qi Xiu of the Qi family. He’s the same years old as Qi Xuanming. His Nether Firefly Bloodline is similar to Qi Xuanming’s, but he killed a first-level Snake-level demon last year!” Su Tianqi said in a low voice..
