Night was about to fall. After Zhang Mingtu finished his check-in, on his way home he could already hear the words "Iron Heart Divine Fist" from the swordsmen wielding knives and swords on the streets.
Obviously, the battle in the center of the river outside Yaodu has spread. Among several counties in the south of the Yangtze River, such a record has become quite brilliant and legendary.
Everyone in the world wants to become famous overnight and become famous all over the world.
Therefore, they were very curious about the young hero who became famous overnight in Yaodu, Jianyi and other places, and talked about it with great interest.
"I'm afraid this young man will be able to make it onto the Lingyun Ranking."
"It's hard to say. His identity and origins are too mysterious, and even his age is unknown. The Lingyun List usually only records the top heroes under the age of 25, and we still don't know the age of that young man."
"There are many heroes in my Jiangnan region. I really hope to meet more of these soaring dragons from my Jiangnan West Road."
…
Zhang Mingtu never cared about other people's compliments, he just liked to listen to people's chatter and collect information, so he walked around six times in the area such as restaurants in the central area of Jianyi where many martial artists gathered.
After getting a rough understanding of the status of the Iron Gallant Divine Fist among the people in the martial arts world and their evaluation of it, Zhang Mingtu was slightly satisfied.
I don’t feel tired from this wave of temporary overtime.
After all, how can it be tiring to listen to others’ praises... Oh, no, how can it be tiring to contribute to Daxia?
As for Lingyunbang, Zhang Mingtu had heard of it, but was not very familiar with it.
The Lingyun List mainly ranks young heroes walking in the martial arts world, and the Tianji Pavilion is responsible for counting and announcing the list.
Statistics show that the top young heroes from all over Daxia usually have to enter the realm of true essence before the age of 25 to have the opportunity to be on the list.
The reason why it is called Lingyunbang is that it is taken from a poem whose author is unknown and the name has been lost.
You must know that when he was young he had lofty ambitions and promised to be the best in the world.
Any young hero who can make it onto the Lingyun List has the potential to become a world-class figure in the future, hence the name Lingyun List.
Zhang Mingtu has experienced a lot, and many of his future brothers have made a certain reputation in martial arts, but none of them have made it into the Lingyun List.
The main reason is that although the Tianji Pavilion is independent of the imperial court and is one of the top sects in the world, it claims that it has never been under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.
But in fact, in the small piece of land of Daxia, Kyoto is above the rest of the world. Every top sect in the world claims to be independent of the imperial court, but they all have inextricable ties with the imperial court.
When dealing with things in daily life, I try my best to avoid conflicts with Kyoto.
If one holds an important position in the imperial court or has a sensitive status, he or she will usually not be included in the Lingyun List or subsequent lists.
The two most glorious brothers of Zhang Mingtu's future had both become grandmasters. However, when they first became grandmasters, Zhang Mingtu was used to keeping a low profile and hiding his identity. Before becoming a grandmaster, he had basically never fought in the martial arts world.
Therefore, he had no chance of being on the list at all. The second time was because Zhang Mingtu was studying at Longxing Martial Arts Academy. With his strength at that time, Zhang Mingtu had the opportunity to be on the Lingyun list, but he turned to the northern border.
In the northern border army, he began to keep a low profile again, and the northern border was usually not included in the list, so he lost his reputation again.
However, Zhang Mingtu later became famous in a battle at the northern border. After he fought head-on with the young master of the northern border and his army, he was once on the Hidden Dragon List.
The Qianlong List usually lists figures at the Grandmaster level, and is a higher level list than the Lingyun List.
The Grandmaster is called a Hidden Dragon because after the ninth marrow cleansing and blood transfusion, he is truly about to leap over the Dragon Gate. If he can cross that hurdle, he can truly become a reincarnated true dragon. That realm is also called the Martial Saint of the World.
"Tianji Pavilion..."
Zhang Mingtu muttered a few words to himself and then shook his head.
The Lingyun List and the Qianlong List are announced to the world, and there are hundreds of people on each list.
It can be said that the people on the list are the most popular figures in the world of Daxia.
No matter where people are in the world, they cannot avoid talking about this list.
But this list is not only not unrelated to ordinary people in the world, but it can also be said to have nothing to do with them.
Daxia has a vast territory, and the population of one continent can be counted in billions.
The number of the rest is terrifying, and the geniuses are also terrifying.
Being able to stand out among so many geniuses and outstanding people basically has nothing to do with the aristocratic families and sects.
There are very few people who can make it to the Lingyun List and the Qianlong List based on their talent, or it can be said that there are almost none.
For a long time, the Lingyun List was even called the List of Aristocratic Families and Sects.
As long as you find the ranking names of different sects and families on the Lingyun List and the Qianlong List, you can roughly estimate their status in Daxia.
Using the Lingyun List and the Qianlong List to estimate his status, we cannot say that the accuracy is 90% to 90%, but it can be said that it is roughly accurate.
“Ling Yun…”
Zhang Mingtu let out a light breath. He knew one thing: if one could make it onto the Lingyun list, no matter if he went to the Six Gates Jinyiwei or other areas, he would usually start as a silver-medal constable or a Jinyiwei centurion. From this point alone, one could see that its value was extremely high.
If one could rank in the top ten on the Lingyun list, he could directly become a centurion or a silver-medal constable in the core area of a state, which was incomparable to the local Jinyiwei centurions and silver-medal constables.
The first place on the Lingyun List is even more famous than the top scorer in the martial arts examination.
After all, the top scholar in Daxia's martial arts examination was not only tested on martial arts, but also on training troops, setting up camps, allocating food and fodder, and archery and horsemanship.
It is very different from the normal pure force of being the best in the world.
"Based solely on what I did last night, it would be difficult for me to make it onto the Lingyun Ranking."
Zhang Mingtu has a clear understanding of himself.
In Yaodu and Jianyi, his reputation is extremely wide and his influence spreads far and wide, but Zhang Mingtu is very clear about how much he actually has.
The thirteen demons fighting under the moonlight sounds intimidating, but only two of them are in the True Yuan realm, and the rest are in the True Qi realm.
Judging from this record, Dandan will not be included in the Lingyun list.
After all, Lingyunbang can basically be called invincible in the same level.
They are all top monsters, and their battle records are exaggerated.
Normally, it's one against three or five.
In comparison, Zhang Mingtu is still somewhat inferior.
"But there's no rush. It's not like I used all my strength last night."
Sitting cross-legged in the small courtyard he bought under an assumed name, Zhang Mingtu slowly refined the vigorous life essence in the Dragon and Tiger External Pill.
He was not as anxious as the younger generation of geniuses to demand a breakthrough. Instead, he used his master-level experience and knowledge to refine the vigorous life essence into every corner of his body, especially to repair those subtle hidden injuries that were usually difficult to detect and regulate his condition.
Moreover, a larger amount of vigorous life essence flows into the body, transforming into the body's potential.
