Chapter 812 - End of Battle, Reporting Upwards (1/2)
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Xue Ying proceeded to challenge the third-ranked Xue Chen. After fighting for a very long time, he had finally secured his victory! Xue Ying was fighting primarily for the sake of getting experience and improve himself. That was why he only utilized his full strength at the end of his challenges. Xue Chen was also extremely carefree about this, as Xue Ying had reached an extremely profound stage with his spear techniques, something that was very helpful for him to cross hands with
After defeating Xue Chen, Xue Ying was promoted to the 3rd rank.
He proceeded on to challenge the first-ranked ‘Rain Sword Guest’.
Rain Sword Guest had similarly altered the cosmos ranked absolute art and created a sword technique that suited him. His sword technique was meant towards group battles, where countless rain droplets were sprayed around, with terrifying power present within every single water droplet. Therefore, he was just like Old Devil Needle who specialized in targeting groups. However, he excelled even more so in this aspect than the latter! This resulted in Xue Ying being completely suppressed.
The sequence of this battle was same as the one with Old Devil Needle, with Xue Ying being suppressed. However, by relying on his Dao of Mirage, the ‘void-ification’ of Voidwalker and his formidable body, he was able to hold his ground against Rain Sword Guest.
Eventually, the treasure spirit judged Xue Ying to have lost!
…
“It has ended.” Forefather Tian Yu sat at the highest location looking downwards. The ranking battle lasted for a total of 12 years before it finally coming to an end. Currently, the ‘Punishment Hall Hall Master’, Ancestor Devil was personally giving out the treasures to some of the golden-robed disciples.
And the golden-robed disciples who dropped out of the top ten ranks had to give back their ‘golden robes’ and the ‘golden disciple command talisman’, before being given ‘violet robes’ and the ‘violet-robed disciple command talismans’ in return.
“Forefather, there aren’t many Inner Hall Elders that have come to watch this ranking battle.” The white-haired male ‘Swordmaster’, said, “Why is that so? Has the situation of our current territory turned for the worse, so they can’t leave? Do you need me to send my incarnation over?”
“Relax.”
Forefather Tian Yu chuckled, “Our lineage specializes in the laws and profound mysteries, and our incarnations are powerful enough, so everything is under control. Just focus on cultivating. The stronger you are, the greater the help you will provide to our Great Void Heaven Temple.”
Swordmaster nodded.
Although their Great Void Heaven Temple was one of the peak powers, they similarly had they own troubles.
“I hope that there will be some who grow up from these bunch of fellows.” Forefather Tian Yu looked beneath, “As long as there are a few more Primal Chaos realm, our Great Void Heaven Temple will have an easier time. With more Primal Chaos realm experts, there might even be someone that is able to reach the final step, That way, the foundation of our Great Void Heaven Temple will be more stable.”
The two proceeded casually chat on.
Only after the items were issued and with the Punishment Hall Hall Master Ancestor Devil announcing the official end of the True God disciple ranking battle did Forefather Tian Yu and Swordmaster leave.
At that moment…
The Hall Masters started to leave, with the Inner Hall Elders and the Outer Hall Elders following suit.
They came to watch the ranking battle primarily due to it being a gathering that happened only once every billion years for the entire Great Void Heaven Temple. What’s more, it was also an opportunity for the experts to meet each other. Truthfully speaking, they did not care much about those True God level battles. At the very most, they would be able to see which brat participating in this ranking battle possessed great potential.

“I’ve gotten it.” Xue Ying felt his mood being uplifted. Of the things that he had obtained as a golden-robed disciple from Ancestor Devil, he had too obtained the most important ‘Supplementary Spiritual Fruit’. Other than that, there were also some of the other slightly less valuable materials which aided cultivation, though they could still be considered precious to him.
“Hmph, Dong Bo Xue Ying, look at how excited you are. You are only ranked third now. If you’ve become the 1st or 2nd rank, won’t you be so emotional to the point of shouting out loud?” Old Devil Needle sneered as he flew by the side.
“Fool Needle, Dong Bo had only lost to you only due the rules of the Hidden World Field. If you were to truly fight with him outside of there, you wouldn’t be able to even injure him. So why the need to gloat about it?” The plump Xue Chen sneered back. He was the one who targeted against Old Devil Needle the most.
Hearing Xue Chen’s reply, Old Devil Needle stared right back at the former as his eyes flashed with a murderous glint.
“What’s the matter, are you thinking of taking action against me? Come come come, do it! It seems that you want to have a taste of Ancestor Devil’s ‘Smelting Devil Prison’.” said Xue Chen in delight. With his strength, Old Devil Needle could not kill him within a short period, much less when he had his protection talismans and other items. At the instant Old Devil Needle made his move, he would have disobeyed the rules of the Heaven Temple, landing him into hot soup.
“Senior Disciple Brother Dong Bo, do want to come over to my cavern-dwelling and have a drink? The other junior disciple brothers and sisters will also be coming over.” Xue Chen passionately invited.
“Senior Disciple Brother Dong Bo, come along with us.” Zhe Qu Yong, Disciple Sister Qian Que, Flood Dragon, and others sent out their invitations.
This group of disciples ranked at the peak of True Gods had an extremely good relationship with one another.
