The People of Genius

Shocking!

Not only were the two subordinates wide-eyed with astonishment, but even Yuwen Qianyue's eyes held a trace of shock!

They had never expected that An Shixuan, a cultivator of considerable skill, would have his limbs broken by someone. This notoriously arrogant young master from a great clan had actually been humbled?

This matter was truly beyond all expectations.

Even stranger was that a ruthless character like An Shixuan had actually been bested by a new disciple. It was simply unbelievable.

Since when did the outer sect have such a formidable new disciple?

Yuwen Qianyue's willow-leaf brows slightly furrowed as she couldn't help but ask again, filled with doubt.

"Explain the situation in detail."

The two subordinates were also greatly shocked, listening intently with astonished expressions.

The disciple who had been bowing with clasped fists in the hall looked nervous, his voice trembling as he recounted what he had seen and heard.

"Reporting to the Esteemed One!"

"According to the accounts of many disciples, a mortal-star cultivator recently took up residence in the Luoxia Celestial Manor. An Shixuan coveted that immortal manor and wanted to seize it for himself. After a dispute, they came to blows. An Shixuan had his limbs broken by this person and has now returned to his residence severely injured!"

A mortal-star cultivator?

With such a background, and still a new disciple, yet he could overpower An Shixuan?

Truly heaven-defying talent and combat prowess, a rare elite seedling!

Hearing the report, a sharp glint flashed in Yuwen Qianyue's beautiful eyes.

The other two, however, were wide-eyed, especially upon hearing the words "Luoxia Celestial Manor." They couldn't help but form a suspicion and tentatively asked,

"Could it be..."

"What is the name of that mortal-star cultivator...?"

The bowing disciple immediately responded, his voice resonating through the great hall!

"According to the register, that person is named Yi Feng!"

As soon as the words fell, the two were already staring with eyes wide open, their faces a mix of pleasant surprise and shock, their complex expressions visibly excited!

"Yi Feng?!"

"It really is him after all!"

Hearing their surprised and excited words and noticing their exhilarated expressions, Yuwen Qianyue also felt immense shock, though her own expression now turned somewhat awkward.

She had misjudged him...

Although this matter couldn't really be blamed on her, she had indeed looked down too much on that mortal-star cultivator named Yi Feng.

This was an excellent seedling far surpassing An Shixuan. She had nearly let him slip right through her fingers due to a moment of prejudice, something she would surely regret upon later reflection.

Thinking back to how the two had tried to persuade her one after another, yet she hadn't changed her mind, Yuwen Qianyue felt increasingly uncomfortable, finding the situation quite embarrassing.

After a few moments of silence, she couldn't help but ask again.

"Is the one who injured An Shixuan truly the mortal-star cultivator Yi Feng?"

The messenger bowed with clasped fists, his tone unwavering.

"Reporting to the Esteemed One, it is indeed Yi Feng. This matter is absolutely true and has already spread throughout the various immortal manors."

Confirmed repeatedly, with no error whatsoever.

Yi Feng was indeed a rare genius seedling!

The two listeners already felt vindicated in their hearts. Only out of respect for Yuwen Qianyue's authority and dignity did they suppress their delight and wait quietly.

At this point,

Yuwen Qianyue no longer held any doubts and finally responded with a faint acknowledgment.

"This Esteemed One is now aware of this matter."

"Sparring among fellow disciples inevitably leads to some injuries. There is no need for undue alarm. Let this matter be put to rest."

These seemingly calm words actually granted Yi Feng an immense favor. For Yuwen Qianyue to show partiality and suppress this matter was to tacitly approve of Yi Feng's status as a genius, and also an acknowledgment of her own misjudgment.

The words of important figures often carry profound meanings, not easily grasped by ordinary people.

The two waiting quietly at the side, however, were no ordinary individuals. They immediately understood the deeper meaning in her words and hurriedly bowed in response, feeling both honor for Yi Feng and quiet satisfaction that such a genius had been recruited to the island.

"The Esteemed One is wise!"

The messenger also wisely withdrew, not daring to utter another word without permission.

When no one else remained.

Glancing at the two, who were waiting respectfully with expressions that seemed to hold back words, Yuwen Qianyue had already seen through everything and casually spoke up.

"You need not say more."

"Since this Yi Feng possesses notable talent, this Esteemed One will not bury such potential. He shall be given a spot on the Heavenly Ranking. I hope this mortal-star cultivator can understand our good intentions and achieve something in the future."

Hearing this, the two bowed with pleasant surprise, their eyes filled with emotion.

"Thank you, Esteemed One!"

"We will certainly inform Yi Feng and have him remember this act of promotion and favor!"

How precious was a spot on the Heavenly Ranking? Even on this island teeming with prodigies, it was not something anyone dared to hope for, let alone a mortal-star cultivator being listed among them. Once one's name was on the Heavenly Ranking, they would receive focused cultivation, with access to terrifyingly abundant resources and treatment.

This unprecedented event was enough to shock countless disciples.

Such magnanimous promotion and favor made even them feel immensely honored and exceedingly happy for Yi Feng.

In less than half a day.

Before the colossal statue encircled by the immortal islands, a hundred-zhang golden list manifested its outline. The names of various top prodigies appeared one after another, eliciting waves of gasps and admiration.

Although most people had a good idea and had long anticipated who would be listed, and the results weren't too surprising, witnessing such glory was still enough to awe and amaze cultivators of all kinds.

At this moment, they were not merely witnessing prodigies gaining fame; it was also highly possible they were witnessing the rise of a future peerless powerhouse!

Since ancient times,

countless renowned great powers had begun their stunning journeys through endless ages by first having their names listed on the Heavenly Ranking!

As most of the famous prodigies had already been listed, the excitement and fervor of the surrounding onlookers gradually subsided, leaving only an inexpressible envy as they stood quietly, gazing up at the Heavenly Ranking in the sky.

Suddenly,

The already subdued surroundings grew even quieter.

On the golden-glowing list, a very unfamiliar name appeared — Yi Feng!

Instantly,

Thousands of cultivators in the vicinity wore looks of astonishment, with only a few from the outer sect widening their eyes in shock!

After a brief silence, exclamations of shock and doubt suddenly erupted before the Heavenly Ranking!

"Yi Feng?!"

"Who is this? This young master has never heard of him!"

"Fellow Daoist, you may not know. This person is a newcomer to the outer sect. It is said he hails from a mortal star, hence not many are aware of him yet."

"A mortal-star cultivator actually made it onto the Heavenly Ranking?!"

The exclamations of surprise had barely lasted a few breaths before gossip and heated discussion sparked a tidal wave of amazement!

"Hah, who says a mortal-star cultivator can't make the Heavenly Ranking? Fellow Daoist Yi previously soundly defeated An Shixuan, even broke his limbs! With such talent, is he not worthy of being listed on the Heavenly Ranking?!"

"Is that true?"

"Many in the outer sect witnessed this event. It has spread far and wide today, how could it be false! The fact that An Shixuan hasn't shown his face until now is ironclad proof!"

"Hisss..."

"A mere mortal-star cultivator actually overpowered An Shixuan. This youngster's talent is truly terrifying!"

"Who said mortal stars produce no prodigies!"

"Fellow Daoist Yi is mighty! His monstrous talent is well-deserved!"

...

After a round of heated discussion, Yi Feng's reputation stirred up the Heavenly Ranking, his fame momentarily unmatched by anyone!

As night fell,

Heated discussions spread throughout the immortal manors. The fame of the mortal-star prodigy had already traveled far and wide on its own!

Even the usually patient and low-key mortal-star cultivators were excitedly holding their heads high tonight, drinking heartily in celebration, laughing and talking. The entire night was filled with lively sounds as Snowflake Island was plunged into an unprecedented uproar.

Only one luxurious immortal island abode remained deathly quiet.

An Shixuan, recuperating from his injuries on his bed, heard the truth and alternated between turning green and red with rage. Upon seeing the image of the Heavenly Ranking transmitted back by his subordinates, he immediately spat out a mouthful of old blood!

"Pfft!"

"Yi Feng! You ambushed me first and then stole my Heavenly Ranking opportunity. I, An Shixuan, will remember you!"
