This became the strongest question in everyone's hearts.
Between a Great Grandmaster and a Heavenly Human, there was an uncrossable chasm!
How exactly did Fahai cross that boundary and reach a height that shocked the world?
Someone immediately asked, "Detective Zhang, do you know how he did it?"
"Yes, this is too bizarre. To be able to kill a Heavenly Human, there must be a special reason."
"Detective Zhang, do you have any inside information? Why not tell us?"
However, this time Zhang Jinjiu shook his head, "This, I don't know either."
"I wasn't present at the battle in Jinling. What I know is that Fahai was able to kill Zhuge Zhengwo..."
"It is said that he borrowed the power of the legendary 'evil emperor relic'."
"evil emperor relic?!"
Everyone suddenly understood.
No wonder he could act Heaven-Defying and kill a Heavenly Human!
The evil emperor relic was no ordinary item!
It was a treasure of the Demonic Sect, passed down for countless generations, and successive evil emperors sealed their life's Internal Energy within it.
The power accumulated by each generation far exceeded imagination.
Even a person with no Foundation, as long as they absorbed the essence within the evil emperor relic, could instantly ascend to a Heavenly Human!
Even if their talent was mediocre, relying solely on Internal Energy, they could still become a top expert!
"It must be a rumor!"
"Even Fahai couldn't be this strong, to kill a Heavenly Human with just the Great Grandmaster Realm!"
"In my opinion, the rumors outside are too exaggerated. Fahai must have refined the power within the evil emperor relic to enter the Heavenly Human Realm and kill Zhuge Zhengwo."
"There's also a saying that Fahai, in the Great Grandmaster Realm, went against a Heavenly Human!"
In their eyes, only a Heavenly Human could kill a Heavenly Human!
Tianji Old Man once said that Fahai's combat power was unparalleled, and no one in the same Realm could match him!
Presumably, he must have broken through to the Heavenly Human Realm and then, relying on his invincible power, killed Zhuge Zhengwo!
But Zhang Jinjiu gently shook his head and slowly spoke.
"You are all wrong, Fahai is not a Heavenly Human."
"He is only a Five-Rank Grandmaster."
"Ah? Five-Rank Grandmaster? What?! Five-Rank Grandmaster!"
For a moment, someone suddenly turned to look at Zhang Jinjiu, their neck making a clicking sound!
But he ignored it completely!
Five-Rank Grandmaster!
To kill a Heavenly Human as a Five-Rank Grandmaster!
A Heavenly Human, that was an existence comparable to a god!
Splitting mountains and severing rivers was not difficult!
Such a powerful individual, even another Heavenly Human might not be able to erase him!
But Fahai did something even more incredible!
He actually killed a Heavenly Human with the cultivation of a Great Grandmaster!
The rumors in the Jianghu were not groundless!
In an instant, all the Jianghu people in the entire restaurant were stunned and shocked.
How could this be!
Fahai, killing a Heavenly Human in the Great Grandmaster Realm?!
This was too astonishing!
Everyone showed an expression of disbelief.
Zhang Jinjiu sighed slightly, "At first, I didn't believe it either."
"But the fact is, Fahai really accomplished this feat that is enough to shake the world."
"As a Great Grandmaster, he killed a Heavenly Human in a backhand move!"
"If that's truly the case..."
Suddenly, someone gasped, as if thinking of something: "Then won't the Tianji Tower's ranking have to be rewritten again?"
"Is Fahai going to directly rush to the god ranking this time?"
"Last time he was first on the Earth Ranking, this time he's probably going to leap to the top of the god ranking!"
The person next to him nodded repeatedly: "Of course, among the god ranking, who has the record of killing a Heavenly Human? Only Fahai!"
"Perhaps it's not just about reaching the top!"
"Fahai killed a Heavenly Human! From the perspective of strength, he has already surpassed the god ranking!"
"But Fahai's cultivation is ultimately that of a Great Grandmaster, so he can't enter the god ranking, right?"
"Hiss—you really dare to think, god ranking?!"
god ranking!
That was the supreme ranking in legends!
Those listed on the god ranking were all Heavenly Humans!
In this era where Land Immortals did not appear, Heavenly Humans were the Peak of the Jianghu!
Like deities, almost omnipotent!
Upon hearing this, some people were so shocked they couldn't even stand steadily!
"Could it be... really the god ranking?!"
That supreme existence, above all living beings!
Could it be that Fahai was also going to become one of them?
Although Fahai killed a Heavenly Human, his true cultivation was only at the Great Grandmaster Realm.
Would Tianji Tower make an exception and include him in the god ranking because of this battle's achievement?
At the same time, inside the Tianji Tower's Intelligence Pavilion.
The Intelligence Elder held the intelligence report, staring at the writing on the paper, his hands trembling slightly, and even the beard on his chin vibrated.
How could there be such an astonishing young man in the world?
The ranking was updated only a few times a year, and he had long ceased to care about those regular updates.
What truly made him restless at this moment was Fahai's terrifying performance!
Who wouldn't be amazed?
A teenager in his teens, who debuted less than a year ago, successively accomplished great deeds that shocked the Jianghu.
The entire Martial Forest was shaken by it!
What a terrifying talent this was!
First, he fought against the Half-Step Celestial Being Fan Qinghui and defeated her.
Then, with the help of the evil emperor relic, he fought against the Heavenly Human Zhuge Zhengwo as a Great Grandmaster, and finally managed to kill him.
Which of Fahai's deeds wasn't Heaven-Defying!
Yes, this person was an anomaly!
A rare anomaly in a thousand years!
The Intelligence Elder put down the intelligence report, rubbed his temples, and let out a long breath.
"Fahai, Fahai, you are truly an extraordinary Prodigy."
"Simply... simply too much!"
After a long time, he finally found suitable words to describe his feelings.
Who would have thought that a Great Grandmaster could reach this step!
How could such a terrifying and bizarre person appear in the world!
How should this little monster be ranked?
Killing a Heavenly Human, he already possessed the strength to contend with a Heavenly Human.
But that was after all with the help of the evil emperor relic.
And he himself was merely a Five-Rank Grandmaster.
If he were to be listed in the god ranking.
An existence that could kill a Heavenly Human, placing him in the god ranking would obviously be a bit of an injustice.
For a time, the Intelligence Elder was in a dilemma, not knowing how to decide.
At this moment, someone walked in from outside the door.
"Elder, the Tower Master sent a secret letter!"
Upon hearing this, the Intelligence Elder immediately stood up, his face showing joy.
The Tower Master sending a letter at this time must be about Fahai's ranking!
It was truly a timely help!
Opening the secret letter, the Intelligence Elder's tense expression immediately relaxed.
The Tower Master still had the idea!
On the secret letter, several large characters were clearly written:
First on the god ranking!
Below it was a line of small text, as if fearing that people would not understand its meaning.
"Although Fahai killed the Heavenly Human Zhuge Zhengwo, he borrowed the power of the evil emperor relic, so he cannot enter the god ranking. However, he defeated the Half-Step Celestial Being Fan Qinghui with his own strength, and his strength is sufficient to rival a Heavenly Human, so he is listed at the top of the god ranking, commanding the Great Grandmaster Realm."
Additionally, there was an attached secret order regarding the adjustment of the heavenly pride ranking.
Fahai undoubtedly took the top spot, even suppressing Nangong Yi behind him.
A Great Grandmaster, only fifteen years old, with the record of defeating a Half-Step Celestial Being and killing a Heavenly Human.
If such achievements could not make him the first on the heavenly pride ranking, then it was definitely not Fahai's problem, but the ranking itself had a problem!
What was even more noteworthy was that below the words "Fahai", a line of red small characters was clearly marked:
"Combat power, comparable to a Heavenly Human!"
These few short words were the most astonishing evaluation!
Compared to the name at the top of the ranking, this recognition was even rarer!
Many people have been at the top of the heavenly pride ranking throughout history, but very few have received this evaluation.
How many people were not Heavenly Humans but possessed the power to rival a Heavenly Human?
"This..."
The Elder in green robes spread his hands, holding the secret letter personally written by the Tianji Tower Master.
He gasped, his expression filled with shock.
Such a high degree of praise!
