Chapter 250 - The Ranking
In the past years, the top rankers in the grand tournament would usually be from the Dongsheng Academy and the Xixing Academy. Occasionally, there would also be some winners from Beichen Academy.
As for the Zhongsheng Academy and the Nanzhan Academy, they could not even get into the top five.
Hence, in the past grand tournaments, the ones that everyone discussed the most were the Dongsheng Academy and the Xixing Academy.
But this year, it was different.
"Do you guys think that it"s possible for the Zhongsheng Academy?"
Upon hearing this, everyone quieted down. They looked at each other and nodded slightly.
In the past, it was naturally impossible for the Zhongsheng Academy. But after experiencing a few rounds, there were already quite a number of people in the crowd who felt that it might be possible for Zhongsheng Academy this year as well?
After all, the Zhongsheng Academy had defeated Bei Chen, who was ranked second!
Furthermore, the Zhongsheng Academy had also displayed a certain level of strength. This made everyone feel that the Zhongsheng Academy this year was indeed very different from the previous years.
"I feel that Jin Wuling, who is still the number one in Dongsheng, might be able to clinch the first place."
Upon hearing those words, many people nodded their heads in agreement.
Jin Wuling came from the Dongsheng Academy, which was ranked second. To be able to become the number one amongst all the heaven"s favorites, his strength was indeed not to be underestimated. In the past years, the majority of those who had obtained first place had also come from Dongsheng.
"Shangguan Jing has a big potential too. Don"t forget that he is an emperor rank cultivation technique, the white tiger spirit body, and he wields killing intent!"
When these words were said, quite a number of people nodded their heads in agreement.
There were only a few emperor rank cultivation techniques in the entire south continent, and the White Tiger Spirit body was the legendary killing intent body. In a battle, ordinary people would not be able to withstand it.
It was quite possible for him to take first place.
"Is it possible for the refined Saint Academy to take first place?"
Someone asked in a low voice. Then, everyone looked at each other in silence.
The refined Saint Academy had exceeded everyone"s expectations. They didn"t think that it was very likely for him to take first place, but if they were to really argue about it, no one could guarantee that it would be impossible for the Zhongsheng Academy.
This man"s unblinking gaze attracted the attention of the girl beside him.
The girl"s lovely hair was simply tied up. She was delicate and charming, and her entire person seemed to be full of vitality. At this moment, she waved her small hand crisply, interrupting the man"s gaze.
The man gradually exhaled and turned towards his younger sister. His gaze carried a hint of doting, but it was still difficult to conceal the trace of shock that remained.
"That man"s scary!"
The man slowly opened his mouth and said these words carefully.
When his younger sister heard this, her beautiful eyes widened and she was immediately shocked.
She was still clear about her elder brother.
They were born in the Jiang family of the martial region. Their elder brother was called Jiang Yi, and their younger sister was Jiang Qin.
Although the Jiang Family couldn"t compare to the Wu Family, they were still a heavenly king level force. They were also one of the strongest families in the entire martial region other than the Wu Family.
Jiang Yi was also known as the rising of the Jiang family, the existence that would suppress the Jiang family"s fate for the next few thousand years!
He was only a few dozen years old and had already entered the cult master realm. Among those in the same realm, there were very few people who were his match.
Jiang Qin usually admired her brother the most, and she knew how terrifying his strength was. In the entire martial arts region, there were only a few people in the same realm who could defeat her brother.
Now, her elder brother actually told her that he saw a terrifying person!
Her younger sister Jiang Qin followed Jiang Yi"s line of sight and looked over. When she saw the extremely handsome Xuan Yi, her eyes lit up. After that, she was stunned.
She had never seen Xuan Yi before, but if she only looked at his watch, what was so terrifying about this kind of person? It wasn"t that terrifying, right?
Jiang Qin hesitated for a moment, but she still told him the truth. "I feel that he should be quite kind. Was he very strong? How did he compare to you, Elder Brother?"
In Jiang Qin"s understanding, her brother was an extremely powerful figure.
To be able to compare to her brother, what was the strength of the person opposite him? How did he compare to her brother?
However, Jiang Qin"s simple question startled Jiang Yi, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
"How can I compare to him..."
Jiang Yi shook his head, and a sigh appeared on his face.
"Although I"m the number one in my family and a sect master, I"m afraid I won"t be able to survive even one move from him."
Jiang Qin was even more shocked when she heard this. She looked at Xuan Yi in disbelief, as if she wanted to see a flower on Xuan Yi"s face.
Based on the impression that Xuan Yi gave her, she didn"t feel that he was too powerful.
Her elder brother was a genius, yet he could not even last one move in front of him. Just who was he?
A greater curiosity arose in Jiang Qin"s heart. She could not wait to know who the other party was. was he really that powerful?
"You don"t know him, but you must have heard of him."
Jiang Yi"s eyes were filled with disappointment, but there was also a hint of yearning in them.
"He is the strongest in the southern continent"s Yuan religion master realm, the number one on the yuan roll, Xuan Yi."
"Boom!"
As soon as these words were said, Jiang Qin was so shocked that she stood up.
The small ponytail behind her fluttered, and her eyes were wide open.
"You said..."
"He is the Xuan Yi that was spread all over the southern continent a while ago?"
At this moment on the stage.
After Cai Ling"er defeated the third place of East victory, there were still a few people left in the entire Zhongsheng Academy.
Other than the two people who had been eliminated in the beginning, there was actually not a single person who had been eliminated from the Zhongsheng Academy!
As for the other academies, more or less half of their members had already been eliminated. Beichen Academy was in an even worse state, for they had been directly eliminated from the third place. As a result, other than those who were still able to hold on after being placed in second place, the others had been eliminated from the top two academies, basically, all of them had been eliminated.
The Princ.i.p.al of Beichen looked gloomy.
After a few rounds, it was the Middle Sage"s eighth lightning spirit"s turn to fight against the Western Star Academy. The lightning spirit burst forth with a thunderous roar and barely managed to repel its opponent. After that, it was flung off the stage by the other party"s whip.
Seeing this, everyone below the stage heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Middle Sage had finally returned to his normal level.
After the lightning spirit, there were only a dozen or so people left on the stage, and the top ten of the south continent were finally chosen, among which, the Middle Sage Academy took up more than half.
During the selection of the rankings, the Middle Sage Academy went all out. Yu Linglong swept through all the enemies, Jian Chen followed closely behind. The Bright Moon and blue were the ones who didn"t give in. Cai Ling"er"s multicolored sword Qi was unstoppable.
The entire floating island was silent. Looking at the six people who stood proudly on the field, their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Di Wuxin shook his head with a bitter smile. He took a step forward and stood beside them.
Ever since they learned that Dongsheng Academy had declared that they would beat the entire Zhongsheng Academy to death, the disciples of Xuans.h.i.+ did not hold back either. They beat the number one disciple of Dongsheng, Jin Wuling, until his face was swollen. He stood unsteadily behind the seven of them with a dazed look in his eyes.
He was no match for Yu Linglong.
He was instantly killed by Jian Chen.
As the number one disciple of Dongsheng, he was not even a match for the seven Zhongsheng students.
Six of them possessed sword intent, and it was obvious that they were from the same sect. The other person was filled with killing intent when he fought, and he could even defeat the White Tiger Spirit Body!
Jin Wuling and the others weren"t a match for him either, so they were ranked eighth.
Once the ranking was out, the entire l.u.s.tful sky island fell into silence.
