Chapter 630: Chapter 640: Strength Wins Respect
When Chu Feng truly captured the first place on the Earth Rankings, the disciples of the Dan State Branch were elated with cheers. They had always seen Chu Feng as their hope, as their core. Now, they could finally rely on Chu Feng as a true backbone.
Even though Chu Feng was promoted to Mountain Master, his status was still limited.
The value of being the first on the Earth Rankings is much higher than that of a Mountain Master. This sufficiently proves Chu Feng’s immense potential and formidable strength.
Those aloof and arrogant Inner Sect Elders also started taking notice of Chu Feng, not to mention Elder Zi Xu.
Even in the eyes of the Supreme Elders, Chu Feng had left some impression.
Not long ago, Elder Lei Ting dared to rush onto the stage and beat up Chu Feng. Try asking him to do it now? See if he dares?
This is the difference between being the first on the Earth Rankings and not being ranked at all.
It’s like the ancient imperial exams, before you get on the list, you are just a student. Once you’re on the list, you become a Scholar, a Top Scorer. You’ve achieved fame and have the qualifications to become an official.
Chu Feng stood on the first arena of the Earth Rankings, attracting the attention of tens of thousands, whether Outer or Inner Sect disciples, all remembered him.
"Now I declare this year’s Heavenly and Earth Rankings!"
"After fierce competition among the competing disciples and unanimous judgment by the panel of judges, the top rank of the Heavenly List goes to Si Huang. Second place on the Heavenly List, Han Sheng. Third on the Heavenly List, Lu Kuixi..."
Chu Feng noticed Lu Kuixi on the third arena of the Heavenly List, who looked rather effeminate.
With dark skin and eagle-like features, he looked like an eunuch.
For some reason, this person’s gaze towards him was rather unfriendly. Chu Feng thought hard but couldn’t recall having offended this person.
He didn’t know yet that Lu Kuixi’s hostility towards him was due to Dongxue.
Dongxue was the most beautiful, most charismatic, and most potential Sword Slave under Si Huang, with many suitors. Lu Kuixi was one of those suitors.
Some also speculated that Lu Kuixi was not really after the wine but after Si Huang herself.
Dongxue was indifferent to any man, yet became friends with Chu Feng. How could Lu Kuixi not be furious? Definitely jealousy driving him mad, wishing he could slaughter Chu Feng.
"Could it be that I was born with a nature that attracts hatred?" Chu Feng subconsciously touched his nose.
Having already died once, he was not afraid of any enemy.
If Lu Kuixi really wanted to deal with him, whatever tricks he had, Chu Feng would face them.
Unfortunately, the struggle for the Heavenly List ended early, Chu Feng was always fighting in the arena, and had no chance to witness the clash of the experts on the Heavenly List. All thirty arenas on the Heavenly List were covered by Arrays.
This was also to prevent harm to the people around the arena.
The battle at the Nine-star Sword God Level is terrifying to think about. Furthermore, Si Huang had already advanced to the Supreme Sword God Realm, an existence like a Divine Soul.
"First place on the Earth Rankings, Chu Feng! Second place on the Earth Rankings, Yan Qing! Third place on the Earth Rankings, Shi Ke, fourth place on the Earth Rankings, Zhou Lingfeng!..."
Unexpectedly, the fourth place on the Earth Rankings turned out to be a young female disciple. She was even an Outer Disciple and her cultivation was not low; she actually had a Three-star Sword God Cultivation.
To be so young and yet cultivate to the Three-star Sword God Realm, this girl was absolutely a devilish level genius.
Although Chu Feng secured the top position, compared to these people, he still had a significant gap.
It can only be said, too many factors determine the outcome of a battle.
"The list of all ranked disciples has been announced! As for the rewards each ranked disciple will receive, they may proceed to the panel below the judge’s seats to check!"
Following the direction pointed by the Sect Master, everyone looked and indeed saw two different rank lists of rewards.
These should have been hung before the competition, Chu Feng arrived relatively late and due to his low status, was arranged in a far back position. Therefore, he didn’t notice the two reward rank lists.
It’s not too late to check it out later.
The reward for being the top rank is definitely not low, truly something to look forward to.
In the competition with Lu Qingyuan, a low-grade Divine Weapon was destroyed. This loss, for sure, must be compensated.
Speaking of which, since entering the Wan Jian Sect Main Lineage, Chu Feng has never been to the Treasure Pavilion to choose treasures.
"According to the previous agreement, the top three of the Heavenly List and the top ranker of the Earth Rankings, please come to the judge’s panel immediately. Prepare to receive the transmission of power."
The words of the Sect Master immediately invigorated Chu Feng.
Securing this top position, he was nearly crippled by Lu Qingyuan, and the risk he undertook was enormous, but it was indeed worthwhile.
Rewards to grasp until one’s hands soften.
Even Yan Qing looked at Chu Feng with immense envy. The transmission of power means a surge in cultivation.
I guess there’s no one who wouldn’t be jealous.
Han Shuang, Pu Li, and others all felt happy and honored for Chu Feng.
But Chu Feng’s enemies had much more interesting expressions.
Zhong Hong could only watch from a distance in the rest area of Medicine Mountain #106. He felt like an ant looking up at a giant.
Mao Wu had a bitter expression, shrinking at the back like a dog, watching the glorious Chu Feng.
Now, the gap between him and Chu Feng was like a chasm, absolutely not on the same level.
He didn’t even qualify to be Chu Feng’s opponent anymore.
"F*ck, letting that despicable Chu achieve his ambition! It pisses me off!" Liu Lang’s eyes filled with hatred as he looked at Chu Feng. He definitely wouldn’t let it go and would find ways to retaliate against Chu Feng.
Because Liu Lang comes from a significant family background.
When Chu Feng flew over Jia Zhenjing’s head, Jia Zhenjing’s face was ashen, filled with helplessness.
"This devil, he has finally grown up. I won’t be able to trample him anymore in the future, farewell to my beauty dreams..." When Jia Zhenjing thought of Han Xiaoying’s stunningly beautiful face, he felt a knife twisting in his heart.
Chu Feng’s status had now surpassed Jia Zhenjing.
"Chu Feng, don’t get smug!" Qin Shan watched as Chu Feng flew past him in glory, his handsome face dripping with gloom.
Qin Shan clenched his fists so tightly that he could wring out water.
Compared to Chu Feng’s boundless glory, Qin Shan became the best contrast.
Qin Shan’s name was not on the Heavenly List. But Chu Feng, who he once considered an ant, now shot to the top of the Earth Rankings.
Chu Feng was like a rising sun, slowly ascending, shining in all directions, unstoppable.
"Damn it, once Chu Feng has undergone this power transmission, his cultivation will definitely skyrocket again. The gap between us will only close more." Qin Shan felt a huge threat. This made him more eager to disable Chu Feng and eliminate this potentially terrifying enemy in the cradle.
"Chu Feng, you’re awesome!"
When Chu Feng flew past the number one arena on the Heavenly List, Dongxue smiled at Chu Feng and gave a thumbs up.
She was genuinely happy for her friend Chu Feng for securing the top spot on the Earth Rankings.
The other three Sword Slaves of Si Huang were all strikingly beautiful. They were curiously sizing up Chu Feng.
Their contempt for Chu Feng was also slowly fading away.
