"Age: 35, Cultivation: Void Comprehension Realm (4th level), Combat Power: Seven Stars, Qualified."
"Age: 35, Cultivation: Void Comprehension Realm (4th level), Combat Power: Seven Stars, Qualified."
When the test results of Nie Haotian and Ye Beiming were revealed, the crowd couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.
Void Comprehension Realm, third level?
They remembered that at the end of the Human Rankings, these two were only at the Divine Transformation Realm (7th level). Yet in just three short years, they had advanced to the Void Comprehension Realm (4th level)?
This speed…
The crowd initially wanted to praise them, but the moment they recalled the top five of the Human Rankings, their words died in their throats.
Nie Haotian and Ye Beiming were indeed talented, and their breakthrough speed was impressive. But compared to those peerless freaks, the gap was still considerable.
At first, Nie Haotian and the others had been quite pleased with themselves. But when they noticed the looks in the eyes of those around them, their faces flushed with embarrassment.
Their genius… was perhaps only unmatched among their peers. But Chen Yunxuan and the others transcended age, time, and even realms.
Those were the true monsters!
"Not bad. With a cultivation at the Void Comprehension Realm (3rd level), achieving Seven-Star combat power is a commendable result."
"Are there any others here who can reach Seven-Star combat power?"
Nie Pengju scanned the crowd, his intentions unclear, leaving everyone hesitant to respond.
"Anyone at the Void Comprehension Realm who can reach Seven-Star combat power?"
"Even those at the Void Comprehension Realm (9th level are fine."
"Not a single one?"
Nie Pengju frowned. Could it really be that no one here met the mark? These people were far too weak.
"I… I’m at the Void Comprehension Realm (9th level). My combat power isn’t Seven Stars, but it’s Six Stars."
"Good, then it’s you. Haotian, spar with this person."
"Let’s verify whether the combat power rating aligns with actual strength," Nie Pengju declared.
"Yes, Grandfather."
Understanding that this was merely a test of combat power, the previously hesitant man stepped forward confidently, facing Nie Haotian.
Despite the difference in cultivation, Nie Haotian was still a genius. Within just a few exchanges, the outcome was decided.
"Indeed, Seven-Star combat power surpasses Six-Star."
"The stele’s combat power assessment is based on one’s true strength."
"Hahaha, I’m so curious now that I want to test myself—see how many stars I can achieve at the Emperor Realm!" Nie Pengju laughed heartily.
"Can… can we also take the test?"
Nie Pengju’s words stirred excitement among the Emperor Realm experts present. If given the chance, who wouldn’t want to know how their strength ranked among peers of the same realm?
"Hahaha, if you want to know, just give it a try!"
Nie Pengju laughed again, then strode to the testing stele and placed his palm on it.
"Test failed!"
When these words appeared on the stele, Nie Pengju sighed in disappointment.
As expected, this thing was designed solely for the Earth Rankings. For them, the result would always be failure.
No matter how strong they were, their age had long since exceeded the limit.
"Alright, enough gawking. Everyone, go take your tests."
As the top factions began their assessments, another wave of excitement swept through the crowd. Gasps of amazement rang out, while many others left in dejection.
"Do you think those two still remember the bet they made back then?"
Da Huang glanced at Nie Pengju and Ye Liuyun, who stood proudly in the distance, and couldn’t help but ask.
"Hmm, if I show up now, will they turn tail and run again?"
Chen Chang'an smirked at Da Huang, then stood and walked toward the two.
"For this Earth Rankings competition, remember—your goal is to make it into the top fifty. As for the top ten, others in the family will handle that," Nie Pengju instructed Nie Haotian.
"Yes, Grandfather. I understand."
Nie Haotian felt a pang of frustration, but he knew his limits. Even securing a spot in the top fifty might be a struggle.
After all, within the Central Heaven Domain, there were many Supreme Realm experts under a hundred years old.
This group was far from small.
"Well, well, both of you are here."
"What a coincidence."
"Come on, let’s settle that unfinished bet from last time."
The moment Chen Chang'an’s voice rang out, Nie Pengju and Ye Liuyun visibly tensed.
Why was he here?
Damn it!
How could they have forgotten about him?
Was he seriously going to force them to complete the bet? Where would they hide their faces afterward?
Ahem, so it’s Chen…"
Nie Pengju coughed lightly, trying to mask his awkwardness. He hesitated, unsure how to address Chen Chang'an.
In terms of seniority, Chen Chang'an wasn’t highly ranked in the Gu family—after all, he was Gu Fengyao’s fiancé.
But in terms of strength? Nie Pengju and Ye Liuyun didn’t dare underestimate him. This was a man they couldn’t even touch when they attacked together. How could he be weak?
"Chen what?"
"I’ve been looking for you two. That bet we made last time—it’s missing the final step."
"Since there are plenty of witnesses here today, let’s settle it once and for all. What do you say?" Chen Chang'an asked with a grin.
Settle it?
No way!
Even if there were no witnesses, they’d never agree.
"Who is this guy? He seems to be on familiar terms with the experts from the Nie and Ye families?"
"Whether they’re close or not, I can’t tell. But being able to speak to them like this means his background must be extraordinary."
"What’s this bet they’re talking about?"
"No idea. I’m curious, though. A bet between Emperor Realm experts must be interesting."
"Emperor Realm? That guy’s only at the Supreme Realm (1st level)."
"Wait, seriously? He’s really just at the Supreme Realm (1st level)?"
"Holy crap, a Supreme Realm (1st level) cultivator making an Emperor Realm expert like Nie Pengju look awkward? Am I dreaming?"
The crowd buzzed with speculation, eager to know what the bet entailed.
At that moment, the sect master of the Wuji Sect approached Chen Chang'an and bowed respectfully. "Greetings, Master Chen."
Gu Tianyuan, representing the Gu family this time, felt a complicated mix of emotions when facing Chen Chang'an.
Though he was Gu Fengyao’s fiancé, this guy’s seniority was absurdly high—even the Gu family’s ancestors had to defer to him.
"Little Gu, you’re here too."
Chen Chang'an’s words made Gu Tianyuan wish he could vanish into the ground.
Damn it, could you at least call me something else? "Little Gu"? What kind of nonsense is that?
Ahem, yes, I’m here. You… doing well?" Gu Tianyuan coughed, his words stumbling slightly.
"Great, just great."
"Since you’re here, this is perfect—you were the witness back then."
"Gentlemen, am I right?"
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!! (Pure love 1v1, light-hearted, no angst, single female lead, villain, reincarnation, lackey)
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
