High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 900

Chapter 900: Chapter 456: Ranking! The Perplexity of the Heavenly Divine (Added Chapter)_4
 

A gentle sword light flows like water, using softness to overcome hardness.

The battle was extremely fierce.

Suddenly.

“Whoosh!”

Ning Chi, the Demigod, swiftly turned his long sword in his right hand, producing an extraordinary and stunning strike that left a trail in the void, causing continuous tremors in space and directly severing the arm of Xia Ju, the Demigod.

Splat~

Xia Ju, the Demigod, was filled with shock and anger, but it was too late to retreat. His arm broke instantly, his Combat Saber flew off, and blood splattered everywhere.

Whoosh whoosh! More sword lights fiercely attacked.

“Not good.”

“Retreat!” The thought crossed Xia Ju, the Demigod’s mind as he instantly activated the Boundary Order, disappearing into the void, causing the sword lights to miss their target.

This battle.

Ning Chi, the Demigod, won, still ranking first.

…

Above a mountain peak.

“Hmm?” Li Yuan noticed the changes in the Ancestor Realm List, a hint of confusion flickering in his eyes: “Xia Ju’s ranking suddenly plummeted? Nearly falling out of the top hundred, was he defeated by someone?”

With the strength of Li Yuan’s soul, it was effortless for him to sense the changes in the Points List with a fraction of his thoughts.

“But at that instant, besides Xia Ju, no one’s ranking changed drastically? It shouldn’t be someone ranked beyond the top ten.” Li Yuan speculated: “Then who defeated Xia Ju? Was it someone from the top ten?”

Having gained half of Xia Ju’s Points, logically, even a top ten expert’s ranking should change.

“Could it be, the top-ranked Ning Chi?” Li Yuan speculated: “This Ning Chi, as well as Moon Blade, Yu Ting, Kong Yin, Hua Zhongyun, where did they all come from?”

Li Yuan was always paying attention to the Points ranking.

Among the top ten, there are exactly five people whose names were not mentioned in the information from Jue Xing Ancient City.

And in the top fifty of the Points List, there are over twenty names that are completely unfamiliar to Li Yuan.

Given the intelligence-gathering capabilities of Jue Xing Ancient City, it’s normal to have several unknown Demigod geniuses among the top hundred in the Points List… but dozens? That’s rather strange.

Especially among the top ten, five unknown names? That’s even more peculiar!

“Could other geniuses be using pseudonyms? That’s not right either.” Li Yuan frowned: “Ao Feng, Liu Bing, and other geniuses expected to contend for the top ten, have all appeared… there’s no one overlooked.”

All of this can only mean.

These unfamiliar Demigod names had never appeared in the intelligence from Jue Xing Ancient City in the past.

…

It wasn’t just Li Yuan who was puzzled.

Many top geniuses like Jing Kui, Liu Bing, Lianyun, Dong Pan, none of them were fools, and almost all of them had sensed the anomaly in the Points List and grew cautious.

Everyone realized that this battle in the Ancestor Realm didn’t seem so straightforward.

…

Above the Ancestor Realm.

The consciousness of eleven Heavenly Divine had been monitoring the fight between Ning Chi and Xia Ju.

“This strike.”

“Is a True God level technique! Undoubtedly, able to defeat Xia Ju so effortlessly, this Ning Chi definitely possesses Peak of Pseudo-God strength.” The judgment of the Heavenly Gods was exceptional.

Previously, since Ning Chi had not encountered such a strong opponent as Xia Ju, the Heavenly Gods could not entirely confirm it, but now they finally could.

“From where did he emerge?”

“With such strong power, he might rival Jing Kui, he has never appeared before.” The Heavenly Gods were puzzled.

To know, all known areas in this realm have been completely occupied by the three major Jue Xing Ancient Cities and the Six Great Holy Lands.

All forces are striving to discover and nurture geniuses… Missing a few Demigods with Initial Rank of Pseudo-God strength is normal.

But a Demigod with Peak of Pseudo-God strength? This indicates an extraordinary genius, who could potentially grow to the Peak of True God, almost impossible to overlook.

Even though Xu Yuan exceeded their expectations, there were at least traces to follow previously, being nurtured by Jue Xing Ancient City.

What about this Ning Chi? No trace of him existed before.

“I suspect.”

“This Ning Chi, as well as Moon Blade, Yu Ting, among others, are not geniuses from our realm.” A somber voice suddenly echoed: “One genius is possible.”

“But a group of extraordinary geniuses, that is not normal.”
