Chapter 1038: Rank Change
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
So far, Yun Yang had only swept through dozens of human trafficking organizations. Of course, there were more of these evil sc.u.m in the Bound of Universe!
Among these organizations, the smallest had more than fifty people, and many even had thousands. These people had done so much evil that they deserved to die. He just needed to find them one by one and kill them all!
As long as he continued to do that, he believed that it would not be long before he could break through to the sixth level.
‘After this banner compet.i.tion is over, the Residence of Nine Supremes needs to act again. It is time for the disciples to go out there and experience the world with their own strength,’ Yun Yang thought.
“Master, Hu Xiaofan…” Yun Xiuxin was looking for him again.
He sighed. ‘Can’t these two live together peacefully for one day?’
…
The cultivation of the Residence of Nine Supremes disciples was shocking and amazing in Dong Qitian’s eyes. Now, with the opportunity to become stronger, the hard work and efforts of these children from the bottom of society had shocked everyone.
They were totally desperate in their cultivation.
It was common to see disciples cultivating in the square in the dead of night. While cultivating, they were also trying to refrain from making noises. Moreover, they were practicing every move with great seriousness!
Every once in a while, there would be puddles of sweat on the ground; everyone, be it a boy or girl, always had wisps of wet hair stuck to their foreheads. Each one of them was clenching his or her jaw and puffing rapidly…
Only five to six days after the breakthrough, even the least gifted disciples were already familiar with their new strength.
The time they took to adapt to the new strength was twice as fast as Dong Qitian’s estimate of twelve days!
Although they were only beginning to become familiar with the new strength and still had a considerable gap from fully mastering them, this achievement and progress were still enough to shock any sect in the Bound of Universe.
‘In other sects, each one of these seventy-five first-generation disciples of the Residence of Nine Supremes would be a genius!’ Dong Qitian sighed in his heart and gave a shocking comment.
However, he also knew that this group of children’s sense of belonging to the Residence of Nine Supremes could not be broken by any external force. Even if there was no oath, it was still the same.
Their lives were dark before this, and only the Residence of Nine Supremes gave them hope. Moreover, most children knew very well that their apt.i.tudes were nothing but rubbish at that time.
Those children with great apt.i.tudes had been picked out. If they were really gifted, the human traffickers would not have abused them. They were really just a bunch of trash.
However, when they came to the Residence of Nine Supremes, the masters did not abandon them, but used a lot of resources to transform them! This kindness and virtue would never be forgotten!
There were still two months and three days to go before the compet.i.tion of the Celestial Luck Banner. In an atmosphere of spiritual Qi fluctuation, the chief disciple of the Residence of Nine Supremes, Sun Mingxiu, made a successful breakthrough and became the first Honor-level disciple.
Three days later, Bai Yexing also broke through to the realm of Honor, officially surpa.s.sing Yu Chenghang and becoming the second Honor-level disciple.
Only half a day later, Yu Chenghang also made a successful breakthrough.
After Yun Xiuxin ascended the realm of Supreme Acme, her progress was more than complete, and she continued to climb upward, successfully breaking through to the peak of Supreme Acme, only one step away from the realm of Honors. Her cultivation base was currently only below Sun Mingxiu, Bai Yexing, and Yu Chenghang. Hu Xiaofan had advanced to the high-level of Supreme Acme, while Lin Xiaorou and Cheng Jiajia had reached the intermediate level.
Moreover, Lu Changman also broke through to the rank of Supreme Acme, landing firmly at the beginner level.
At this point, there were three genuine Honors and more than twenty Supreme Acmes among all the first-generation disciples of the Residence of Nine Supremes, while the rest had all reached the peak level of the Supreme realm. Basically, each of them was just one step away from a breakthrough.
Dong Qitian, who had witnessed the Residence of Nine Supremes grow from nothing to so strong in such a short time, felt absolutely speechless. He really could not find anything to complain about. At the same time, the compet.i.tion within the Residence of Nine Supremes was also in full swing.
Disciples were not allowed to insult each other’s parents and elders, to fight in private, or to hurt each other. As a result, there was only one thing left for them to compete with: ranking!
The top ten disciples were naturally at the top level among all disciples. Under the top ten, the disciples set their own rankings accordingly.
There were ten positions of the Supreme Acme realm and ten positions of the Supreme realm.
Although there were no Heaven Mystics and Earth Mystics among them, the rankings still needed to be kept. After all, they would still have junior brothers and sisters in the future, and everyone’s cultivation base would go through the process from low to high.
During this period of time, the group of little guys, including Yun Xiuxin, were all proud and always addressed themselves as seniors in front of all other disciples.
Once again, the top ten disciples ranking compet.i.tion was held, with many climaxes and endless surprises!
Sun Mingxiu was the first to break out in a cold sweat with fright.
Yu Chenghang was now ranked third, so he was naturally not strong enough to pose a threat to Sun Mingxiu. However, Bai Yexing, who caught up from behind, came in strong and almost knocked him down from the top!
They had a fierce fight, and it took Sun Mingxiu a great effort as well as all his trump cards to suppress the other successfully. It was not until the end of the fight that Sun Mingxiu put his heart, which had been hanging in his throat throughout the battle, back into his chest. He then realized that his robe was already soaking wet with cold sweat.
It was too dangerous!
‘If I don’t work hard, maybe I will become the second junior brother after the next compet.i.tion…’
If such a thing became a reality, it would be really embarra.s.sing for him!
Bai Yexing, who had just secured the position of the top ten first-generation disciples, was also scared out in a cold sweat. He was prepared to face Yu Chenghang’s challenge, and he had easily suppressed him. However, when he was facing Yun Xiuxin’s challenge, who was clearly weaker than him, he almost failed miserably, although their cultivation bases were one rank apart!
At the beginning of their battle, Bai Yexing held the lead with a higher rank and gained the upper hand. But Yun Xiuxin, who refused to give up the entire time, suddenly had an epiphany in the battle and unexpectedly broke through to the realm of Honors!
If it were not for the last-minute breakthrough in the battle, which caused Yun Xiuxin’s cultivation base to soar but also made her no longer familiar with her strength, Bai Yexing might really have failed miserably!
Although Bai Yexing eventually won the battle, his face was pale for a long time!
By this time, the difference between the disciples’ apt.i.tudes and their personal efforts were gradually showing. A new ranking of the Residence of Nine Supremes’s top ten first-generation disciples had been released.
The chief disciple was still Sun Mingxiu, while the second disciple was replaced by Bai Yexing. In third place was Yu Chenghang, while in fourth place was Yun Xiuxin, who climbed all the way up but was defeated by Bai Yexing.
The fact that Yun Xiuxin almost broke into the top three certainly caused a great shock, but the shock was not as great as that of another newly-promoted disciple!
The tenth place was taken by Hu Xiaofan!
