Chapter 47: Elemental Academies Successively Make the Ranking
"What kind of bullshit genius ranking is this? Do they even know how to judge?"
"How can a kid whose Martial Soul is flawed and whose Rank is lower than mine be placed ahead of me?"
Huyan Li roared angrily at the sky.
"I want to see what kind of three-headed, six-armed characters are ranked ahead."
"If they don't deserve the fame, hmph!"
He held his breath, staring intently at the heavenly curtain.
[..]
He wanted to see if this ranking was truly fair or not.
The golden light of the heavenly curtain flowed, seemingly ignoring his dissatisfaction, and quickly condensed the information for the next name.
[genius ranking, Eighteenth Place: Huo Wu!]
[Soul Power Rank: Rank 39 control system Battle Spirit Elder]
[Martial Soul: Fire Shadow (Top-tier Fire Attribute Martial Soul, possessing both control and attack characteristics)]
[Affiliation: Blazing Academy]
[Evaluation: Unique Martial Soul, extremely strong mastery over the Fire Attribute, outstanding talent, competitive Heart-Nature, possesses extremely strong explosive power.]
[Reward: Soul Power increased by one Rank, the lifespan of all Soul Rings increased by five hundred years, a one-thousand-year left arm Soul Bone.]
"Huo Wu! It's that Genius girl from Blazing Academy!"
"The Fire Shadow Martial Soul is indeed very strong. I heard her older brother, Huo Wushuang, is also formidable."
"The lifespan of the Soul Rings increased by five hundred years! This reward is higher than the previous two people!"
...In the direction of Blazing Academy.
A cheer erupted.
Huo Wu, dressed in red, tall and graceful, with a beautiful face carrying a hint of arrogance, felt the Soul Power growing within her, a confident smile gracing her lips.
She raised her head to look at the sky, fighting Martial Soul burning in her beautiful eyes.
"Eighteenth place? Not enough! My goal is the top ten!"
Meanwhile, Huyan Li of the Elephant Armored Academy saw Huo Wu ranked eighteenth, and her reward was much better than his.
Although he was still somewhat displeased, he knew Huo Wu's and Blazing Academy's reputation and could reluctantly accept it.
He patiently continued to watch.
He wanted to see how many more "Genius" figures were ahead... The golden light of the heavenly curtain flowed, and the new ranking slowly emerged amidst widespread anticipation.
[genius ranking, Seventeenth Place: Feng Xiaotian!]
[Soul Power Rank: Rank 40 agility-attack system Battle Spirit Ancestor]
[Martial Soul: Double Headed Storm Wolf (Top-tier mutated Beast Spirit, possessing both speed and attack)]
[Affiliation: Divine Wind Academy]
[Evaluation: Martial Soul mutation brings extreme speed and unique Self-Created Martial Soul Abilities, extraordinary talent, astonishing perseverance.]
[Reward: Soul Power increased by one Rank, the lifespan of all Soul Rings increased by eight hundred years, a two-thousand-year right arm Soul Bone!]
"It's Feng Xiaotian! The captain of the Divine Wind Academy battle team!"
"The Double Headed Storm Wolf, that's an extremely powerful mutated Martial Soul! I heard he even created his own Soul skills, Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes—each slash stronger than the last, its power limitless!"
"Reaching the Spirit Ancestor Rank in his twenties, this speed is considered top-tier among the agility-attack system. It looks like Divine Wind Academy will become famous this time!"
"..."
Discussions erupted all over the continent.
Especially among the various academies and Sects, Feng Xiaotian's inclusion on the ranking caused quite a stir.
Inside Thunder Academy.
The Dean looked at the heavenly curtain and said to Yu Tianxin beside him, "Tianxin, did you see that? Feng Xiaotian's Self-created Soul Skill is his greatest advantage."
"Although your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul is strong, you must be careful when facing an opponent who pushes a single characteristic to the extreme."
Yu Tianxin, the direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, had a resolute face and spoke in a deep voice.
"Dean, don't worry. His storm wind is fast, but my Thunder is fiercer. If we meet in the tournament, I will definitely use absolute power to break his continuous slashes!"
Although his tone was confident, his eyes revealed the importance he placed on Feng Xiaotian's unique Self-created Soul Skill... Over at Blazing Academy.
The atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
Huo Wushuang patted his younger sister Huo Wu's shoulder and smiled, "It seems that kid Feng Xiaotian is still one step ahead of you."
Huo Wu snorted, her pretty face filled with an unwillingness to admit defeat: "Hmph, he's just relying on being older and having a few higher Ranks of Soul Power."
"Brother, just watch. If we meet in the tournament, I will definitely use my Repulsion Fire Ring to keep him away!"
Even so, when she felt the scorching gaze Feng Xiaotian often directed toward her, and the "coincidence" of the Soul Bone reward, a strange feeling involuntarily arose in her heart...
Inside Divine Wind Academy.
Feng Xiaotian, dressed in a green robe, with a handsome face marked by a hint of wildness, felt the reward integrate into his body.
His Soul Power instantly Broke through to Rank forty-one.
His Soul Rings shone brighter, and a light yet powerful sensation spread through his right arm. A cheerful smile appeared on his face.
Seeing Huo Wu ranked eighteenth and himself seventeenth, Feng Xiaotian felt an inexplicable joy.
Especially noting that Huo Wu received a left arm Soul Bone while he received a right arm Soul Bone.
The "one left, one right" coincidence made him feel that this was simply a destiny decreed by heaven!
"Little Sister Huo Wu, it seems we have a great affinity,"
Feng Xiaotian muttered softly, his eyes flashing with the determination to succeed.
This further solidified his resolve to pursue Huo Wu.
"Next time we meet, I must make her look at me with new eyes!"
...Elephant Armored Academy.
When Huyan Li saw Feng Xiaotian's ranking and reward, the dissatisfaction in his heart dissipated somewhat.
He was clear about Feng Xiaotian's reputation and strength; the Double Headed Storm Wolf Martial Soul combined with a Self-created Soul Skill was indeed troublesome.
Being ranked seventeenth was well-deserved.
Although Huyan Li's defense was strong, his speed and offensive methods were relatively singular, and in this aspect, he was indeed not as comprehensive as Feng Xiaotian.
"It seems this ranking does have its rationale..."
Huyan Li muttered.
When his gaze swept over Ma Hongjun's name in nineteenth place again, he was still somewhat unhappy.
But mostly, it was a curious desire for verification.
"Evil Fire Phoenix... how strong is its defense? If I get the chance, I must personally test your mettle and see why you are ranked ahead of me!"
...Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Bone Douluo Gu Rong smiled faintly: "That kid Feng Xiaotian is quite a talent. To develop a mutated Martial Soul to this extent and even create his own Soul skills, his Heart-Nature and perseverance are commendable."
"Old Chen, do you think his storm wind can surpass your Seven Kill Sword?"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "While speed is invincible, it also has limits. His storm wind relies on continuous acceleration and stacked attacks."
"But my sword is the ultimate sharpness and speed. Our Realms are different; they cannot be compared."
He paused, looking at Ning Fengzhi, "However, this child is indeed worth paying attention to. Divine Wind Academy has certainly gained recognition this time."
Ning Fengzhi nodded with a smile: "The emergence of Geniuses is a blessing for the continent. I just wonder how many more people from Rongrong's Big Dipper Academy will make the ranking next."
...[genius ranking, Sixteenth Place: Dai Mubai!]
[Soul Power Rank: Rank 39 attack system Battle Spirit Elder]
[Martial Soul: Evil Eyes White Tiger (Top-tier attack system Beast Spirit)]
[Affiliation: Shrek Academy]
[Evaluation: The Martial Soul is domineering, attack power is extremely strong, possesses enhancement Secret Techniques like White Tiger Vajra Transformation. As a Star Luo Prince, his Heart-Nature has flaws, but his potential is enormous.]
[Reward: Soul Power increased by one Rank, the lifespan of all Soul Rings increased by one thousand five hundred years, and physical quality comprehensively enhanced by one hundred percent!]
