C73 (1/2)

While he was panicking in his heart, Zhou Qing suddenly felt the Fate Stone Spirit Bone in front of his forehead tremble slightly. A strange fluctuation spread out and instantly covered his entire body.

With this wave of energy enveloping him, the feeling of panic in Zhou Qing's heart that had been seen through instantly disappeared.

In the horizon, Spiritual Master Crimson Fire's eyes were blazing as he stared down at Zhou Qing.

Not only were the mages puzzled, even he wanted to investigate what secrets were on this little fellow.

A powerful Spiritual Sense instantly enveloped Zhou Qing. Every inch of Zhou Qing's flesh and blood was clearly reflected in his eyes.

A short while later, Adept Crimson Fire frowned.

Song Changqing was just an ordinary late stage Soul Condensation cultivator. Other than his dense Spiritual Energy, he didn't notice anything else strange about him!

Slightly shaking his head, Adept Crimsonflame retracted his spiritual sense.

It wasn't that there weren't any secret techniques that could avoid detection in this world, but these techniques could be used to confuse mages. In front of a real person, it was impossible to hide them.

Sensing that the terrifying gaze above her head had disappeared, Zhou Qing's taut heartstrings also gradually relaxed.

So dangerous!

”Di Feng, the remaining talismans, before the stone stairs collapsed, did the two of you remember where the competitors were?”

Adept Crimsonflame looked towards Di Feng and the rest of the talismans.

Both of them were powerful mages with amazing memory, so they bowed and said, ”Elder, remember!”

Spiritual Master Chihuo slightly nodded. ”If that's the case, then Song Changqing's result will be at the peak. As for the others, their results will be based on where they were before the collapse of the stone stairs.”

Actually, he could count Zhou Qing's result as one hundred and sixty steps. However, the former had already obtained his top-grade magic technique, and due to face, the Mysterious Sky Sect could not withdraw it. Thus, they directly confirmed Zhou Qing's achievement.

Once Adept Crimson Fire made his decision, some people were overjoyed while others were worried.

Many participants with poor results in climbing the stone stairs had been hoping for a fluke. Since everyone was at the same starting line, then the result couldn't be any better.

However, Spiritual Master Crimson Fire's decision had completely shattered their hopes of getting lucky.

”Adept, this …”

Lan Yuan was shocked. He suddenly raised his head to look at Spiritual Master Crimson Fire.

According to the latter, Song Changqing's result would be considered as reaching the top. Then, the ancient monument would directly enter into the ranks of the Four Great Clans, taking over the Lan Clan's position!

”You have an objection?”

Sage Crimson Fire frowned as he looked down at Lan Yuan. A majestic and terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon him.

Boom!

Lan Yuan's stooped body became even more bent under the pressure. His mana was completely unable to operate and his face was flushed to the extreme.

The gap between a mage and a real person was like an insurmountable chasm!

”Reporting to Daoist Master … No... ”No.”

Lan Yuan's voice was hoarse as he spoke with great difficulty.

”Hmph.” Adept Crimsonflame let out a cold snort. Only now did the boundless aura retreat like the receding tide.

Space trembled. Adept Crimsonflame's body slowly grew blurry, then completely disappeared.

”We respectfully send you off, Adept!”

Everyone shouted.

After Adept Crimson Fire left, Lin Long finally smiled and said, ”Since that's the case, this old man will announce the final result of this ranking tournament.”

”The Solidified Realm competition is over. ”Song Changqing from the Ancient Tablet Sect will gain the opportunity to become the personal disciple of the Mysterious Sky Sect; the top ten will gain the chance to become the elite disciples of the Mysterious Sky Sect; and the top ten will become the foreign delegates of our Mysterious Sky Sect after today.”

”After the ranking competition is over, the Lan Clan will no longer be part of the Four Great Clans. The Ancient Tablet Sect will take over the Lan Clan.”

”The spirit veins controlled by the Lan Clan shall be handed over to the Ancient Tablet Gate. Half of all the assets under it shall be allocated to the Ancient Tablet Sect. ”The related matters must be completed within a month.”

Every time Lin Long spoke, Lan Yuan's face would lose all color. In the end, his face was deathly pale as he sat there paralyzed. He looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

The true person had given the order that the ranking tournament had already been decided.

He had always been unwilling and unwilling. In the end, the Lan family was removed from the Four Great Families.

On the other side, Su Mu was extremely excited. He had a smile on his face and his eyes were shining brightly. He seemed to be brimming with vigor.

After today, the world would change. The top four powers under the Profound Heaven Sect would gain the name of the 'Ancient Stele Gate'!

”The rankings of the other sects will be announced tomorrow.”

”This ranking tournament has officially ended!”

As soon as Lin Long finished speaking, he beckoned with his hand. The huge screen of light rapidly shrank before turning back into a scroll made of beast skin and landing in his hand.

Lin Long did not stay any longer. He walked out of the auction hall along with Di Feng and Yu Fu.

After the people from the Mysterious Sky Sect left, Su Mu became the absolute center of attention.

With a real person leading the charge, he was one of the four great families … In the short span of a few days, the status of the Ancient Tablet Sect underwent an earth-shattering transformation.

Many mages came forward to congratulate him. Such a powerful new power was a target of their friendship.

Meanwhile, Zhou Qing had also become an extremely dazzling star. He was surrounded by the disciples of the hundreds of immortal sects.

Not to mention his relationship with the Ancient Tablet Sect, just the fact that he had the qualification to become the direct disciple of the Mysterious Sky Sect made him worthy of everyone's friendship.

The position of the Mysterious Sky Sect's direct disciples was equally extraordinary!

Thus, even though their storage rings had been stolen, some of the Immortal Sect disciples had been sent a message by their seniors to strike up a good relationship with Zhou Qing.

As for the Lan family, they had been forgotten.

Lan Yuan's expression was terrifyingly gloomy as he stared unwaveringly at Zhou Qing. The viciousness in his eyes could not be resolved as killing intent filled them.

”Let's go back.”

After a long time, Lan Yuan finally spoke in a hoarse voice and left the arena without looking back.

Behind him, Lan Ningwen didn't even dare to breathe as he followed closely.

Ten Weir City, at the entrance of the ancient monument.
