Chapter 42 Jing Yuan's painstaking efforts! The tenth place on the Martial Soul Ranking is revealed! Tang San is stunned!
The Snow Empress nodded slightly, her eyes, even purer than ice and snow, looking at the man on the recliner.
"I never expected that Shui Bing'er's master would be the Emperor."
Both of them were in turmoil.
Living in the far north, they weren't particularly familiar with the intricacies of the human world, but they were utterly impressed by the man's methods.
Jing Yuan listened to their conversation, lazily half-opening his eyes, a playful smile playing on his lips.
"Shui Bing'er?"
He murmured the name, and the image of the girl who always wore blue appeared in his mind.
"My Bingbing's apprentice..."
Jing Yuan chuckled softly, his fingers rhythmically tapping the armrest.
"She's a bit strange."
"I've heard that she's as cold as ice in front of strangers, so why does she blush so easily in front of me?"
As he spoke, Jing Yuan stroked his chin, looking thoughtful.
"My gut feeling tells me something's wrong!"
The Ice Empress and the Snow Empress exchanged a glance, both seeing helplessness in each other's eyes.
This emperor is incredibly powerful and has a deep mind, so why does he seem so oblivious when it comes to matters of love and sex?
Or is he playing dumb?
Jing Yuan stretched and didn't dwell on the topic for too long.
His gaze pierced through the wind and snow, seemingly looking towards the distant south.
"As for Jialing Pass, there's no need to worry."
"Whether it's Tang San or Qian Renxue, it's just children playing house; they can't cause any real trouble."
The Shence General clearly wasn't very interested in the fiercely contested battlefield.
He lay back down in the rocking chair and settled into the most comfortable position.
"More than anything else, I'm thinking about how to get back."
At this moment, golden light flowed across the sky, and Jing Yuan's reward transformed into a falling meteor.
Although he was not listed, Heaven also bestowed gifts upon him as the master of those who were listed.
Jing Yuan probed the ball of light with his divine sense.
"The reward for being ranked first on the power list, besides upgrading all my soul rings by one million years, also gave me a fragment of a map of the universe and the starry sea."
Feeling the surge of power within his body and the fragmented star map that appeared in his mind, Jing Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
"Once these fragments are collected, a complete map of the universe can be pieced together!"
"If we had a complete map of the universe, we would be able to find our way back."
He breathed a sigh of relief. He had been in Douluo Continent for quite some time now. Although it was a leisurely place, it was not his homeland after all.
"Power Ranking, Martial Soul Ranking, Strength Ranking—no matter what the ranking is, I can be number one."
"Our Luofu Immortal Ship can also dominate the rankings."
Jing Yuan closed his eyes, his tone calm, yet it exuded an arrogance that looked down upon the world.
"In that case, I will stay quietly in Douluo Continent and wait for the Heavenly Reward to be delivered to me."
Why bother traveling around?
Thinking of this, the image of that pink-haired, always busy figure involuntarily came to mind.
Jing Yuan's lips curled slightly, as if he were having a conversation across time and space, and he sighed softly:
"Fu Xuan, oh Fu Xuan."
"True wise people use their brains."
"You are a brilliant strategist, but your temperament is still too reckless!"
The wind and snow swept up his voice.
"You should go down and reflect on your actions. I hope that one day you will understand my good intentions."
...
Just as Jing Yuan was sighing, the golden characters in the sky rolled again, and a vast pressure instantly swept across the entire continent.
The new rankings are about to be revealed.
[Ranked tenth on the Martial Soul Ranking: Six-Winged Angel!]
[Owner: Qian Renxue]
[A divine-level martial soul! Qian Renxue possesses innate soul power of level 20, perfectly compatible with the Six-Winged Angel martial soul! Qian Renxue has reached the level of the first-generation Angel God!]
[Reward: Soul Power increased from the initial stage of a Level One God to the intermediate stage of a Level One God! Divine Skill: Angelic Glory!]
At that moment, the entire continent seemed to be put on pause.
After a deathly silence, a deafening roar erupted.
"What?! The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is only ranked tenth? How is that possible?! Such a low ranking!!!"
"This is a god-level martial soul!"
"Is there something wrong with the Sky Curtain? That's the legendary Angel God Martial Soul, how could it not even make it into the top nine?"
"..."
Whether they were ordinary people or high-ranking Soul Masters, their faces were filled with horror at this moment.
In this world's understanding, the six-winged angel is the pinnacle of martial souls, a synonym for holiness and power.
But now, this myth has been shattered.
A god-level martial soul, merely a goalkeeper?
...
Spirit City, Hall of Offerings.
Before the enormous angel statue, an old man staggered backward, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Qian Daoliu stared intently at the sky, his breathing rapid.
"How is this possible..."
"The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is only ranked tenth?"
He devoted his life to serving the angels, regarding this glory as his life.
"Xue'er is very compatible with the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, even surpassing me back then."
"Such talent, such a martial soul, and she can only be ranked tenth?"
The old man's hands were trembling; this was a huge blow to his faith.
...
Outside Jialing Pass, Shrek Camp.
The people who were originally worried about the war situation were now stunned by the message from the sky.
Zhu Zhuqing stared at the line of golden characters, a strange light flashing in her eyes.
"Qian Renxue is really amazing."
Although they are enemies, as Soul Masters, it is instinctive to respect the strong.
Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists. She had always longed to become stronger, and deep down, she even wanted to become a powerful figure like Qian Renxue, standing on the clouds and looking down on all living beings.
Inside the large tent.
Yu Xiaogang suddenly stood up, smashing the teacup in his hand on the ground.
"Shock..."
The man, who called himself a master, no longer had his usual composure on his face.
"Among martial souls, the quality of a single martial soul definitely ranks in the top three!"
"This is a true divinely bestowed martial soul, with innate level 20 full soul power!"
"But it's only ranked tenth?"
Yu Xiaogang paced back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
Ning Rongrong covered her mouth, unable to hide the shock in her eyes.
"The tenth is a divine-level martial soul. What were the previous nine martial souls?"
"Is there something more powerful than a god in this world?"
Tang San, standing to the side, was pale.
He looked at his hands, and the twin martial souls he had always been so proud of didn't seem so appealing anymore.
"Although I possess twin martial souls, both the Blue Silver Emperor and the Clear Sky Hammer are top-tier..."
"But I'm not confident I can get first place."
Tang San's voice was somewhat hoarse.
If even a perfect six-winged angel can only rank tenth, then where would his Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer rank if they were combined?
