Chapter 166: Chapter 144: Huge Change in the Spirit Ranking
The scene unfolding in the sky left everyone watching outside the arena utterly shocked.
The majestic Fire Sparrow, with its wings unfolded to a staggering length of over 130 meters, its feathers resembling flames, lowered its proud head before a tiny human boy, who was not even as tall as one of its feathers.
This image struck deeply into the hearts of all onlookers!
Then, screams and cheers swept across the entire mountain gate plaza and the viewing area below Sky Extreme Cliff in an instant.
"My God!"
"He did it, Ye Chen really did it!"
"This formidable Great Demon, a huge Fire Sparrow with the strength of a high-ranking Great Demon, was actually subdued by Ye Chen!"
"Incredible, it's just too incredible! Could it be that Ye Chen's strength is now comparable to a late-stage Spirit Sea Realm expert?! And he's only fifteen years old, at the eleventh level of True Qi!"
"In the first round at the Strength-Testing Giant Rock, Ye Chen activated all the strength patterns and completely shattered the rock! In the second round with the Purple Lightning Pearl's speed of movement technique assessment, Ye Chen once again created the miracle of being hit only fifteen times!
In the third and fourth rounds of the practical examination, his performance was still so exceptional, still surpassing everyone else!"
"Climbing to the eighty-eighth Floating Peak and subduing the high-ranking Great Demon Fire Sparrow, in this selection for true disciples, Ye Chen has utterly created a miracle, surpassing even Yu Luoxuan, who was the most favored to win!"
"Ye Chen, is the undisputed number one!"
The entire mountain gate plaza, with tens of thousands of spectators, whether they were disciples of the Taixuan Sect in the True Qi Realm or disciples from other sects, were all cheering and screaming wildly.
The true disciple competition they witnessed was simply too thrilling!
Ye Chen's performance throughout the four rounds of assessment echoed continuously in their minds.
Especially the scene where Ye Chen spread his wings to rescue the falling boy and his last battle with the Great Demon Fire Sparrow were deeply ingrained in their minds, unforgettable for a long time.
The disciples in the mountain gate plaza, watching the practical examination through the giant light screen, were extremely excited and screaming incessantly, not to mention those below Sky Extreme Cliff who witnessed Ye Chen's performance firsthand.
Looking at the traces of the great battle still lingering in the sky, at the peaks of the Floating Peaks that had been shattered and collapsed, and seeing the huge Fire Sparrow lowering its head in front of Ye Chen, all the young competitors knew the Taixuan Sect had acquired an extraordinary youth!
This Ye Chen, who had exceptionally participated in the selection for true disciples, definitely had the strength to become a part of the grand Taixuan Sect!
"Ye Chen!"
Seeing Ye Chen subduing the huge Fire Sparrow, Jiang Yao could no longer hold back; her figure moved, and she flew towards Ye Chen.
Ye Chen looked at the beautiful girl flying towards him, then at the Great Demon Fire Sparrow by his side, and finally, he raised his head to look at the entire Taixuan Sect.
The four rounds of assessments, with his successful capture of the huge Fire Sparrow, had finally come to an end.
The selection for true disciples had finally concluded!
He could finally enter the six-rank great Taixuan Sect and become one of its true disciples! He had at last fulfilled the agreement he made with Fairy Jia Luo in Taixuan!
When Ye Chen, accompanied by Jiang Yao and the huge Fire Sparrow, descended from the sky, the entire area of Sky Extreme Cliff erupted into fervor!
All the people crowded around Ye Chen.
Amid the crowd, Fairy Jia Luo said with a smile, "The assessment for Ye Chen is over, and so is the assessment for everyone else!"
"Now, let's announce the results of all four rounds of the assessment!"
Whoosh!
Fairy Jia Luo's finger lightly tapped.
A giant light screen emerged, displaying the final assessment scores for all the young competitors.
Among the more than nine hundred competitors, Ye Chen, with his shattering of the Strength-Testing Giant Rock, being hit only fifteen times by the Purple Lightning Pearl, climbing to the eighty-eighth Floating Peak, and subduing the high-ranking Great Demon Fire Sparrow, had performed the best in all four rounds, amassing a total assessment score of eleven thousand one hundred and eighty-sixty-five points, firmly seated in first place!
…
"The selection for true disciples has concluded after all four rounds!"
"Ye Chen, with a total assessment score of eleven thousand one hundred and eighty-sixty-five points, ranked first!"
"Yu Luoxuan, with a total assessment score of three thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven points, ranked second!"
"Mu Yunlei, with a total assessment score of two thousand eight hundred and thirty-eight points, ranked third!"
"And then there's He Lang in fourth place, Shen Quan in fifth…"
As Fairy Jia Luo activated the giant light screen at Sky Extreme Cliff, a similar giant light screen at the mountain gate plaza also displayed the scores for all the competitors.
Everyone looked up at the cumulative assessment results after the conclusion of all four rounds.
When they saw that Ye Chen's total assessment score was even higher than the combined scores of those ranked second and third, Yu Luoxuan and Mu Yunlei, all the disciples who had been excited about Ye Chen's capture of the Great Demon Fire Sparrow began to cheer joyfully!
They knew that, with the end of the Taixuan Sect's true disciple selection event, Ye Chen's name would certainly spread throughout the entire Taixuan Sect, the Eastern Domain of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, and even the whole Heavenly Wind Kingdom, just as Jiang Yao did when she triumphed in the same event previously!
…
The most secretive and powerful place in the Taixuan Sect is the Inner Peak, where true disciples and elders reside.
In each Inner Peak, there is a huge mountain wall.
At the top of these walls, four big characters are written — True Transmission Rankings!
Beneath the words "True Transmission Rankings," a set of golden characters that change periodically is displayed. These characters are precisely three hundred lines worth!
This is the place that the true transmission disciples of the Inner Peak pay the most attention to!
The Elite Disciple Rankings is the list that records the rankings of true transmission disciples, and only the names of the three hundred most powerful true transmission disciples of the entire Taixuan Sect can be recorded on it.
Find joy at m,v,l,e,mpy,r.
The rankings on the Elite Disciple Rankings are determined by true transmission points, which can be obtained by completing sect trials, sect tasks, or sect assessments.
The more true transmission points one has, the stronger they are considered to be and the more resources they can obtain within the Inner Peaks of the Taixuan Sect.
All true transmission disciples who enter the Inner Peak are constantly challenging the rankings of the Elite Disciple Rankings, ever striving to improve their strength.
Just as the final results of the Taixuan Sect true transmission disciple selection competition were set, countless disciples who were meditating beneath the "Elite Disciple Rankings" board suddenly noticed the entire board begin to shine brightly.
On the Elite Disciple Rankings, the rankings change frequently, and when they do, the golden characters only flutter and change.
Unless someone newly enters the top thirty on the Elite Disciple Rankings, such a grand radiance would not occur.
Upon seeing the grand radiance emerge from the Elite Disciple Rankings, all the true transmission disciples near the rankings board looked toward it in astonishment.
"The rankings are changing!"
"Could it be that someone has newly entered the top thirty?"
"Which true transmission disciple has made a great breakthrough?"
Those who can enter the top thirty of the Elite Disciple Rankings are invariably the prominent figures of each peak, either possess immense strength in the late stages of the Spirit Sea Realm, or are extraordinary talents capable of contending with the late stages of the Spirit Sea!
Seeing such grand radiance on the Elite Disciple Rankings, everyone looked toward the line of characters highlighted by the light.
When they saw that the line of characters in the twenty-eighth position read "Ye Chen, true transmission points eleven thousand eight hundred sixty-five," all the true transmission disciples looked at each other in dismay.
Ye Chen?
How come no one has ever seen this name on the Elite Disciple Rankings before? Has anyone ever heard of such a true transmission disciple in the Taixuan Sect?
In the past, those who were able to enter the top thirty on the Elite Disciple Rankings were strong contenders who often lingered around the forties and fifties, making a breakthrough and shooting into the top thirty.
Their names were well known among the true transmission disciples.
It is quite rare for someone to enter the Elite Disciple Rankings and shoot into the top thirty immediately.
Now, these sudden characters "Ye Chen" had taken all the true transmissions by surprise.
Could it be, this is a new true transmission disciple who directly entered the top thirty on the Elite Disciple Rankings?
While all true transmission disciples within the Inner Peak were astonished, lights of escape from various peaks flew in, and then, a message spread throughout the Inner Peaks of the Taixuan Sect: The true transmission disciple selection competition had ended, and the first place was a young man named Ye Chen!
When they heard this news and looked back at the Elite Disciple Rankings, all true transmission disciples of the Taixuan Sect were completely dumbfounded.
This Ye Chen, was he the young man who has just finished the true transmission disciple selection competition? Just became a true transmission disciple?
He just became a true transmission disciple and was able to enter the top thirty of the Elite Disciple Rankings?
What kind of prodigy was this?!
You should know that those who monopolize the top thirty of the Elite Disciple Rankings are none other than true transmission disciples who have practiced arduously for many years, with a majority being in the later stages of the Spirit Sea Realm.
Those who participate in the true transmission disciple selection competition are all disciples of the True Qi Realm; how could they possibly enter the top thirty of the rankings?
No one could believe it.
At this moment, a true transmission disciple murmured, "In the true transmission disciple selection competition, the final assessment score can indeed be converted into true transmission points, allowing new true transmission disciples to enter the Inner Peak to exchange for cultivation resources."
"Could it be that this Ye Chen has earned more than ten thousand assessment score points in the true transmission disciple selection competition?!"
"How is that possible! Even in the previous dozens of competitions, the assessment score points obtained for first place were only around four or five thousand at most. Even when Sister Jiang Yao from Snowdrift Peak won the competition with her amazing talent and set the record for the highest assessment score points, it was only over seven thousand points!"
"How could Ye Chen possibly have obtained more than ten thousand assessment score points?"
All true transmission disciples couldn't believe it.
Yet as more messages continuously arrived at the Inner Peak, the incredulous true transmission disciples suddenly heard news that Ye Chen, the first-place winner of the true transmission disciple selection competition, even dominated a high-ranking Great Demon in the final practical assessment and directly earned ten thousand assessment score points!
This news left all true transmissions under the Elite Disciple Rankings speechless for a long time.
They looked at the Elite Disciple Rankings again.
As Ye Chen's name entered into the Elite Disciple Rankings, claiming the twenty-eighth spot, he pushed down the ranking of everyone below him by one.
At the very top, third in the rankings on the Elite Disciple Rankings was none other than Jiang Yao, who was only seventeen years old, still in the early stages of the Spirit Sea Realm!
And in the first position was a name called "Jin Lieyang," and next to Jin Lieyang's name were the four astonishing words "Half-Step Rotating Pill."
...
Ye Chen had no idea about the changes in the Elite Disciple Rankings of the Inner Peak.
At that moment, he was completely surrounded by various Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses.
Apart from Fairy Jia Luo, the other peak masters began introducing their Inner Peaks to Ye Chen.
Since Ye Chen won first place in the true transmission disciple selection competition and earned the right to independently choose his training peak, these Inner Peak masters naturally wanted to attract this unprecedented genius to their own peak.
While all the peak masters were promising Ye Chen various cultivation resources, he turned to look at Jiang Yao, and then at Fairy Jia Luo, and said with a smile, "I would like to join 'Snowdrift Peak'!"
