Chapter 177 Shui Bing'er, Seventh on the Charm Ranking!
Gu Yuena was not angry at all when she heard the praise from everyone; on the contrary, she was even happier.
She tightened her grip on Lu Ming's arm, her face beaming with pride.
"That's natural."
"The man I've set my sights on is, of course, the best in the world."
Lu Ming listened to the chatter of the women around him, but didn't say much. However, the smile on his lips never faded.
Being surrounded by so many women, all of whom are stunning beauties, is indeed a wonderful feeling.
Just as everyone stepped into the area of the main tent.
Above the heavens, the golden list trembled once more.
Buzz—
This time, the scale of the operation was larger than any before.
Amidst the pink glow of the sunset, glistening snowflakes began to fall.
But the snowflakes weren't cold; instead, they carried a refreshing fragrance.
A blue beam of light crashed down.
Within the pillar of light, a colossal phantom of an ice phoenix soared into the sky, letting out a resounding cry.
[Ranked seventh on the Douluo Continent Charm Ranking!]
Everyone stopped in their tracks and looked up.
As the rosy light shimmered, a tall and slender figure slowly emerged.
Her long, light blue hair reached her waist, and her skin was as clear and translucent as ice and snow.
Her appearance was extremely beautiful, not in a flamboyant way, but in a pure beauty that exuded an extreme coolness.
But beneath this aloofness lies a sense of nobility and arrogance befitting a top-tier martial soul possessor.
Seventh place: Shui Bing'er
[Identity: Captain of the Tianshui Academy team, owner of the top-grade beast martial soul Ice Phoenix, inheritor of a first-level deity]
[Charming Commentary: With skin of ice and snow and bones of jade, she is like a phoenix spreading its wings to soar through the cold heavens. She is an elf of ice and snow, and a queen of storms. Cold on the outside, warm on the inside, and unyielding. That touch of ultimate icy blue is the clearest color in the world.]
[Rewards for ranking: Ice Phoenix bloodline purified to god-level (ancestral), martial soul evolved into "Ancient Ice Phoenix", soul power increased by seven levels, and the "Absolute Zero" domain obtained.]
With the rankings released.
Shui Bing'er, standing behind Gu Yuena, was completely enveloped by that blue light.
She looked at her hands with a somewhat blank expression.
The soul power within his body was surging wildly, and his martial soul, the Ice Phoenix, was possessing him uncontrollably.
But this time, the phantom of the ice phoenix was no longer the same as before; it had become even larger and more sacred.
Each feather seems to be sculpted from the purest ice crystals, exuding an aura from the ancient wilderness.
"I...I'm on the list too?"
Shui Bing'er could hardly believe it.
Although she was confident in her appearance, she never imagined she would be ranked seventh.
After all, there are so many important figures ahead of us.
Lu Ming turned around, looked at Shui Bing'er bathed in divine light, and nodded slightly.
"good."
"Ancient Ice Phoenix, this bloodline is no less than that of a true dragon."
"Absorb this well, and you will have a place in the future realm of gods."
Overjoyed to receive Lu Ming's affirmation, Shui Bing'er quickly bowed in greeting.
Thank you.
...
at the same time.
The Heavenly Dou Empire faction.
Inside the tent where the Shrek team was located, the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
"Smack!"
A crisp sound.
Ma Hongjun crushed the teacup in his hand, splashing scalding tea all over his hand, but he seemed oblivious to the pain.
Those cunning little eyes were now bloodshot, staring intently at Shui Bing'er's image on the sky.
That look in his eyes was filled with resentment, hatred, and a twisted, perverse desire.
"Shui Bing'er…"
"Shui Bing'er!!!"
Ma Hongjun squeezed out these three words through gritted teeth, his voice hoarse, like a vengeful ghost demanding a life.
How could he possibly forget this woman?
Back in the Soul Master Competition, it was this woman who led the group of women from Tianshui Academy to utterly defeat the Shrek Academy team.
More importantly.
It was during that battle that, due to the clash of their soul skills and an unexpected event, occurred.
His place...
Although he wasn't completely crippled, he was left with a lifelong disability, becoming a genderless and useless person.
For Ma Hongjun, who was extremely lecherous, this was worse than death.
Every time the night is quiet, the pain of helplessness drives him to the brink of madness.
"Seventh place?"
"A top-grade ice phoenix?"
Ma Hongjun let out a strange laugh, his facial features contorted into a grimace.
"Great, that's wonderful."
"I was wondering where to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come to me like this."
"It's actually right across from Jialing Pass!"
Ma Hongjun suddenly turned his head to look at Tang San, his eyes flashing with a crazed light.
"Third Brother!"
"Once we break through Jialing Pass, I must keep Shui Bing'er for myself!"
"I'll make her wish she were dead!"
"I'm going to lock her in a cage and torture her every day until she begs me to kill her!"
"Isn't she aloof? Isn't she pure and innocent?"
"I'm going to find a hundred beggars and beat them up in front of her..."
Ma Hongjun's words became increasingly vulgar and offensive.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, who were present, frowned and a hint of disgust flashed in their eyes.
Although they were rivals of Shui Bing'er, as women, they instinctively felt disgusted upon hearing Ma Hongjun's despicable remarks.
Dai Mubai patted Ma Hongjun on the shoulder and echoed him with a sinister look:
"Don't worry, Fatty."
"I'll help you hold her down then."
"This kind of woman needs to be properly disciplined."
Tang San, sitting in the first seat, kept wiping the Trident of the Sea God in his hand with a blank expression.
At this moment, he slowly raised his head, glanced at Shui Bing'er in the sky, and then glanced at the direction of Jialing Pass across the way.
"Fatty, I'll avenge you."
"It's not just Shui Bing'er."
"Everyone in the Spirit Hall will pay the price for this."
Tang San stood up, walked to the entrance of the main tent, and gazed at the distant Jialing Pass, a resolute look flashing in his eyes.
"Lu Ming's strength has increased dramatically, and even the Silver Dragon King is on his side."
"With our current strength, we probably won't be able to break through Jialing Pass."
Tang San's voice was calm, but it carried a chilling undertone.
Master Yu Xiaogang sat to the side, his stiff face full of solemnity.
"Mistress, what are you planning to do?"
"The current situation is very unfavorable to us."
"Lu Ming has the advantage of timing and location, and he also has the reward of the Golden List. A direct confrontation is not an option."
Tang San turned around, looked at everyone, and a cruel smile appeared on his lips.
"Teacher, have you forgotten who I am?"
"I am the successor of the Sea God, and also the chosen one of the Asura God."
"Since the power of the human realm is insufficient, let's borrow the power of the divine realm."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the tent was taken aback.
Ning Rongrong couldn't help but ask:
"Third Brother, what do you mean by this?"
"There are rules in the divine realm that gods cannot arbitrarily interfere in wars in the lower realms."
Tang San gave a cold laugh.
"rule?"
"Rules are made by the strong."
"The divine realm is now also paying attention to Lu Ming."
"His existence has already threatened the rule of the divine realm."
