The Heavenly Ranking Competition has ended, and the Hua family is preparing to leave ahead of schedule. Hua Rong, who has spent a month with the Hua family, will also be leaving with them.
Ye Xiruo patted Hua Rong on the shoulder: "Little Hua Hua, you'd better work hard at your cultivation, otherwise the next time we meet, the order of seniority might really be confused."
Hua Rong's face immediately fell. In the entire Taiyan Continent, no one's cultivation speed could match that of this freak before her, not even Xiu Qiyu. His eyesight was so sharp; he could notice Xiao Yezi's extraordinary talent back then.
Forget it, thinking too much will only bring tears. What saddened and angered Hua Rong the most was that Qing Zhiyi actually wanted to stay and not leave with him. It was truly a sad story.
No matter how much he pleaded, Qing Zhiyi wouldn't budge. He hadn't seen his senior brother in a long time, and besides, Hua Rong had gone with the Hua family and was returning to the Hua family. What was the point of him, an outsider, getting involved?
Ye Xiruo gloated from the side: "Little Flower, you should give up! If you were half as good-looking as Brother Xiuqi, maybe Second Senior Brother would have left with you."
"You mean I'm ugly?" Anger! Surprise! Fury! Hua Rong's face turned red.
"Isn't that right?" Ye Xiruo shrugged and looked at Qing Zhiyi, who nodded in agreement: "That's right."
Hua Rong was completely petrified; she had suffered a devastating blow.
"Until we meet again."
"Until we meet again." Despite their reluctance, they were still bound to part ways. Ye Xiruo and Qing Zhiyi watched Hua Rong's receding figure, both feeling a pang of sadness.
"Alright, it's not like we're never going to see each other again." Ye Xiruo forcefully pulled Qing Zhiyi back to the courtyard.
Today marks the tenth day since the Heavenly Rankings were made public, and the entire Heavenly Pride City, and even the entire continent, has become somewhat restless.
So far, aside from those fallen prodigies, no other prodigies have been teleported out. Everyone knows that in these past ten days or so, the top ten prodigies have had a tremendous opportunity and are busy improving their strength. Those ranked eleventh to one hundredth also seem to have had significant opportunities and are also busy improving their strength. As for what the remaining prodigies are doing and why they haven't been teleported out yet, no one knows for sure.
Time passed slowly, and the vortex in the Dragon Transformation Pool was spinning wildly. Everyone understood that the longer they persisted in the Dragon Transformation Pool, the longer they were nourished or transformed by dragon blood and dragon energy, and the more beneficial it would be for their future cultivation.
After a period of painful struggle, Jing Li and Yu Kou have now adapted to the power of the dragon blood and are actively absorbing it to transform their bodies. Xiu Qi Yu, on the other hand, is using the power of the dragon blood to continuously repair her internal injuries and simultaneously temper her physique. The spiritual energy in the Dragon Transformation Pool is abundant and pure. The ten prodigies are simultaneously tempering their bodies and frantically absorbing the spiritual energy, then compressing it to refine their true essence.
The energy in the Dragon Transformation Pool is also slowly decreasing. It is conceivable that after they finish their cultivation, the energy accumulated in the Dragon Transformation Pool over the past few hundred years will be completely exhausted.
Finally, on the fifteenth day, the Pride Monument emitted a soft light, and then countless black dots were thrown out. Upon closer inspection, they were the surviving geniuses.
That's right, the Prodigy Ranking is that simple and brutal, governed by its own laws and regulations. When the time was up, all the prodigies were simply thrown out. Of course, those prodigies who were currently cultivating sensed it and stopped, waiting to be teleported out. Those prodigies ranked outside the top 100 weren't so lucky. They were already confined to this area, unable to provoke or fight. When the time came, they were just as brutally thrown out.
Many forces in Tianjiao City sprang into action, excitedly searching for their own prodigies among a sea of black dots.
The situation was rather chaotic, and Master, Eldest Brother, and Seventh Brother Xiu should all be together. Since fighting couldn't be done freely in Tianjiao City at this time, Ye Xiruo waited patiently in the courtyard for their return. Just to be on the safe side, Ye Xiruo sent two Grand Elders to meet Master and the others.
The situation was similar for most other forces on the continent, making Tianjiao City more lively than ever before. Forces with returning prodigies were naturally overjoyed. Those prodigies who had made their mark on the Heavenly Ranking received an especially warm welcome. After they returned to their sects, even more rewards would be distributed.
Those factions whose prodigies had all perished left in a gloomy and dejected manner, a truly helpless situation. Even though they had prepared themselves mentally beforehand, learning of the loss of all the prodigies they had painstakingly nurtured was inevitably heartbreaking, and they wondered how they would return home to report back. With so many prodigies lost at once, how could their sects possibly develop?
After being thrown out, Jing Li, Zi Shu, and Xiu Qi Yu quickly regained their footing in mid-air and flew towards the resting area of the Pill King Palace. Along the way, they received countless envious, awe-inspiring, and admiring glances.
After the sword cultivators of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were recognized, their tense and solemn faces, which had been expecting to receive the worship of the crowd, were instead met with these expressions of utter disbelief. What was with these expressions? They weren't demons or alien races; did they really need to look like that?
The sword cultivators of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were unaware that they had become famous; their "Ten Thousand Swords Unleashed" technique had been hailed as a divine skill. It was said that once this "Ten Thousand Swords Unleashed" was unleashed, even ghosts and gods could not withstand it.
The Daoist cultivators of the Taiyan Divine Sect, dressed in flowing Daoist robes, exuded the air of handsome immortals. The Taiyan Divine Sect truly lived up to its reputation as the number one sect on the continent; even with its top disciples deeply entrenched in a secret realm, it still achieved such brilliant results, enough to draw everyone's attention.
This lively scene lasted for three days, during which all the major powers prepared to leave Tianjiao City and return to their sects. The Tianjiao Monument had once again disappeared into the void. On the twentieth day, Tianjiao City would be shrouded in a chaotic power and vanish into the void, only to be rebuilt sixty years later.
As the biggest winner of this event, when Jing Li, Zi Shu, Xiu Qi Yu, and another prodigy who fought their way into the Heavenly Ranking, along with more than twenty other prodigies who survived but did not make it into the Heavenly Ranking, returned in glory, Ye Xi Ruo prepared several large tables of spiritual food for them and brought out a lot of high-grade spiritual wine from her space.
"Master, the conditions here are simple, but I have prepared a celebration feast, including your favorite spirit wine."
Jing Li nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."
Ye Xiruo and Si Hao shook their heads repeatedly: "The ones who have worked the hardest should be all of you geniuses."
