Chapter 289 New Ranking of the Prodigies



There is a golden full moon in the blue sky, and under the moon there is a quietly flowing river. Beside the river is a lawn with shallow grass. On the lawn there is a two-story wooden house. In front of the cabin there is a tall old locust tree. Under the locust tree, a group of people are drinking and having fun.

In Qin Ran's memory, Danfeng had never been so lively. In the past, he and his master depended on each other, and now he is alone.

Why did so many people suddenly come to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival with him?

When did all this begin to change?

He looked at the girl who was laughing in the crowd.

She can chat with people about everything under the sun, discuss scriptures and philosophy with people, drink and talk about swords with people, and she can even speak eloquently about calligraphy and music. She can always easily become the focus of the crowd.

She noticed that he was looking at her, and quickly raised her hand, smiling and signaling to him. She was so innocent and straightforward that she never concealed her love for him.

It was her appearance that changed his life.

So is this change good or bad?

He smiled and didn't give himself a clear answer, but in fact, the answer was very clear.

Qin Ran took out the jade flute that his silly apprentice had bought for him, leaned it against the old locust tree, tried the sound, and then a song "When Will the Bright Moon Rise" sounded leisurely under the moon.

At this time, Li Shiyin was arguing with Lu Junxing about whether soda or fruit wine was better;

Long Qiqi was reasoning with Zhuifeng that the last pork elbow should belong to her;

Tian Wenjin talked to Tu Shanyouyou about the details of her mission this time;

Dong Zhongyuan was fawning on Tushan Youyou attentively;

Yan Yi sat there obediently, maintaining an awkward smile despite feeling uneasy.

The sound of the flute rang out, and they all looked towards Qin Ran. Under the moonlight, under the ghostly locust tree, a young man in green clothes was playing a jade flute.

Everyone in Danfeng knew that Qin Ran had this skill. After all, Qin Ran had practiced playing the flute by torturing them. But Lu Junxing didn't know. He smiled at Qin Ran and asked Li Shiyin softly, "Master Junior also has this skill?"

"Hehe! Looks good, doesn't it?" Li Shiyin didn't answer, but proudly boasted. She looked at Qin Ran with eyes full of little stars.

She was clearly talking about the sound of the flute, but she asked if it looked good. This lover's eyes see beauty in everything, and Lu Junxing didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just shook his head and laughed.

After the song, Qin Ran held the jade flute, looked up at the bright moon, and sighed softly: "People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, the moon waxes and wanes, this has always been the case. I wish you a long life, and we can enjoy the beauty of the moon together even though we are thousands of miles apart."

"Haha, good poem, good poem!" Lu Junxing praised loudly. He flew away from the banquet, away from Li Shiyin, to the moonlit lawn over there. He reached out his hand drunkenly and took out a transparent sword. He then used this sword energy to dance a song of mountains and rivers for everyone under the moon.

His sword dance had a high level of swordsmanship, as high as three or four floors. If an ordinary swordsman saw it, he would be able to make a big leap in his swordsmanship practice.

Tian Wenjin watched the game very seriously and had a lot of insights.

But Li Shiyin had just come out of Lu Junxing's sword world, so she was not interested in this. She moved a stool to Dong Zhongyuan's side, patted his shoulder, stopped his dog-licking behavior, and asked, "When did Senior Brother Dong come out of seclusion?"

"I've been out of seclusion for several days." Dong Zhongyuan replied. He was absent-minded, as if his mind was entirely on Tushan Youyou.

Just a wisp of white shadow made him have unrequited love for many years. Until today when he saw Tushan Youyou in person for the first time, he did not go completely crazy, which only shows that his mental state is extremely high.

"That is to say, the new list of geniuses has been released?" Li Shiyin continued to ask.

"right!"

"Then..." Li Shiyin looked at Dong Zhongyuan and blinked her big eyes, giving him a hint.

Unfortunately, Dong Zhongyuan had so much of a silly smile on his face that he had no time to pay attention to her and didn't even notice her hint.

"Oh!" Li Shiyin pulled Dong Zhongyuan over and asked with wide eyes, "Where am I in the ranking?"

Dong Zhongyuan regained his senses after looking away from Tu Shanyouyou. He glanced at Li Shiyin and replied calmly, "Third."

"Third?" Li Shiyin was stunned. "Third! Why?"

When will she be ranked third on the Tianjiao list?! There are obviously many people who are better than her?

"Why are there so many? I just arranged them randomly." Dong Zhongyuan replied impatiently.

"What exactly is the new Tianjiao Ranking like?" Li Shiyin asked relentlessly.

"Do you want to go in and try?" Dong Zhongyuan was annoyed to the point of no return. He turned around and said to Li Shiyin seriously, "I have updated the Tianjiao Ranking. The strengths of the people on the list are all your current strengths. Do you want to go in and try?"

He looked at Lu Junxing specifically.

The current Lu Junxing, even if Li Shiyin was several times stronger, she would not be able to beat him. If she forced herself to fight, she would definitely be abused. She quickly shook her head.

"That's it!" Dong Zhongyuan shook his head and continued to look at Tushan Youyou.

Then, Tu Shan asked leisurely, "What are your new talents like? I find them interesting."

Dong Zhongyuan was shocked, his expression extremely serious, and said: "The new ranking of the prodigies is like this..."

On the side, even Yan Yi, who was sitting obediently, pricked up his ears. He heard Dong Zhongyuan say:

"Senior Brother Lu is undoubtedly the first. I believe there is no doubt about this. The second is Liu Baiyun. Although this guy didn't beat me before, he secretly formed a Nascent Soul in the Taoist sect and became the only disciple of our generation to reach the Nascent Soul stage. He is currently ranked second."

"The third one is Shiyin." He was a little embarrassed to show his weakness in front of the goddess. "I didn't dare to drink Shiyin's cup of sword spirit wine before, so I can't be ranked third. So according to the previous ranking, I am still fourth. The fifth one is Tian Wenjin. I think Junior Sister Wenjin is actually only weaker than Shiyin. I don't think Yao Qingke can beat her.

"Then the sixth is Yao Qingke, the seventh is Yan Tianxing, the eighth is Ye Qingxuan, the ninth is Qi Yuan, and the tenth is Ximen Wushang."

"This is the new ranking of the Tianjiao List." He said, and asked Tushan Youyou, "Are you satisfied?"

Tu Shanyouyou nodded nonchalantly.

So Dong Zhongyuan was very happy.

"I'm fifth?" Tian Wenjin turned her gaze away from Lu Junxing and asked Dong Zhongyuan with a frown. She knew she would definitely be on the list, but she didn't expect to be ranked so high, and fifth...

Before the fifth place, it was Huang Feiyu's position. She had reason to suspect that Dong Zhongyuan did it on purpose.

“As the only sword practitioner who has comprehended both sword energy and sword intent, and has also condensed a golden elixir, you are qualified to be fifth.” Dong Zhongyuan gave the correct reason.

The three people behind the fifth place were all from Qifeng. Li Shiyin didn’t like people from Qifeng, so she nodded and said, “Wenjin, you are so good, you must be the fifth. Yao Qingke and the others are very bad…”

Tian Wenjin looked doubtful, she didn't believe that Yao Qingke was so bad.

"Speaking of which..." Li Shiyin thought of a key question, and she asked Dong Zhongyuan, "Your Tianjiaobang is a magic weapon. My master said that this magic weapon is very powerful. So, I am very curious, what is the function of this magic weapon, and how powerful is it?"

This time Dong Zhongyuan did not answer. He shook his head and said, "I hope you will never know the purpose of the Tianjiao Ranking."
