Lei Jingyun's face was extremely ugly, but he still smiled and said:
"Yeah, it's about time to start. I have to go back too."
He stood up, took a deep look at the wind chimes on the other side, and then left gracefully.
Afterwards, Ruo Guancheng sat down on the other side of Ruo Qingyan.
The wind chimes were on the left, he was on the right, and the well-behaved Ruo Qingyan sat in the middle.
After Lei Jingyun returned, his gaze kept sweeping towards Ruo Qingyan's direction.
Lei Yan also asked Xiao Hui in a low voice:
"Xiao Hui, isn't this Ruo Qingyan's boyfriend?"
Xiao Hui's eyes widened:
"What are you saying? That's not it at all!"
"Oh? I don't believe it, absolutely! Look at Ruo Qingyan, she immediately perked up as soon as her boyfriend arrived."
"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense!"
Xiao Hui directly covered Lei Yan's mouth with her hand.
"Waaaaah! Waaaaah!"
Since the wind chimes arrived, the entire square above has been incredibly quiet.
Finally, the pleasant female voice that had been announcing things earlier came through again:
【Thank you again to all the elders and masters of the various families for attending this year's Azure Spirit Assembly. Please forgive any shortcomings in our hospitality.】
[Now, I hereby declare the Qingling Tournament officially open!]
BOOM——
The fireworks exploded, immediately diverting the attention of everyone present.
Many people cheered, instantly enlivening the scene.
[Back on the list!]
The woman shouted passionately.
Then, amidst cheers from the crowd, a group of about twenty people drifted in from afar in an orderly fashion.
It floated to the very center.
The twenty people are lined up, forming a matrix.
They then simultaneously formed hand seals, and golden light shone brightly from their hands.
Before everyone's eyes, a huge scroll slowly appeared, exuding an aura of majesty.
The scroll slowly descended from top to bottom, gradually revealing the three large characters at the top of the list:
[Azure Spirit Ranking]
First place: Ruo Guancheng, male, 28, seventh-level Great Perfection.
Second place: Lei Hong, male, 28, seventh-level Great Perfection.
Third place: Ruoyan, male, 27, seventh-level Great Perfection.
Fourth place: Bai Zhishang, male, 28, seventh-order Great Perfection.
Fifth place: Bai Luyan, female, 27, seventh-level Great Perfection
Sixth place: Lei Yuan, male, 28, seventh-order Great Perfection
...
They are all members of the original three families!
However, a loner emerged from the middle.
Eighteenth place: Yin Kongmen, 29, Seventh-level Great Perfection
Then the three starters took center stage again.
Finally, the 30th person was no longer a member of the main family of the three founding families.
People from various families also participated.
The scrolls continued to fall, and golden characters kept appearing.
People watched this list quietly, which had been in existence for a year.
Because it is a scroll formed by spiritual energy, the wind chimes can be seen clearly without removing the blindfold.
Upon seeing the name Yin Kongmen, I couldn't help but say:
"That's good, Indian. You can't judge a book by its cover."
Ruo Qingyan said softly:
"Master Yin is exceptionally talented. At the young age of 22, he entered the Azure Spirit Ranking. For many years, his ranking has continued to rise."
Upon hearing this, the wind chime nodded:
"Amazing, amazing!"
As last year's rankings are gradually revealed, the level of skill is also declining.
After reaching number 400, there were no more seventh-tier individuals, and the list of sixth-tier Great Perfection individuals began to be revealed.
When the scroll was fully unfurled, the thousandth place was reached.
Among them, the lowest level is the middle stage of the sixth rank!
Then, the female voice on the radio rang out again:
[New leaderboard!]
As soon as he finished speaking, all the characters on the huge golden scroll burst into light.
The entire square was instantly bathed in golden light.
It made one squint.
When the golden light faded and I opened my eyes again, I discovered...
There are no names left on the Azure Spirit Ranking.
Instead, there was a clean scroll.
At this moment, an aged voice slowly drifted from the head of the family:
The Azure Spirit Ranking is promulgated and revised by the Spirit Pivot Pavilion.
The sound echoed, followed by a moment of silence.
[The list is out!]
[First Place!]
The moment the words fell, everyone present felt a chill in their hearts!
[Ruo Guancheng! Male, 29, Seventh-Order Great Perfection!]
As the voice faded, golden light flashed again on the scroll, revealing the name of Ruoguan City.
Meanwhile, all the large screens in the sky.
They all showed the somewhat resolute face of Ruoguan City.
"It was him after all!"
"Tsk, it must be him. After all, no one below the eighth rank can withstand his City-Severing Blade Technique!"
"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the top spots should remain unchanged."
"After all, they are still the highest level of the seventh tier."
As expected, the top ten remained unchanged this year.
[Eleventh Place! Yin Kongmen! Male, 30, Seventh Stage Great Perfection!]
Wow! The ranking of Indian monks has risen again!
"Oh my god, we were so close to making it into the top ten!"
"Yes, it's such a pity. Next year, at his age, he'll be removed from the Azure Spirit Ranking..."
"Oh, that's a bit of a pity."
Yin Kongmen's face also appeared on the big screen, but his face was expressionless.
It was as if all of this had nothing to do with him.
On the side, someone expressed regret for the monk Yin Kong:
"So close, old Indian!"
The majestic voice continued, and the list of the Azure Spirit Ranking was still being updated.
After that, every time a name was read out, that person's face would appear on the screen.
