Chapter 540 - Top 10 (1/2)

Xiao Chen turned around. It turned out to be Yumu Shisan and Jiang Qianqian, whom he had not seen for a month. He smiled and said, “Brother Yumu, Jiang… Miss Jiang.”

“Tsk,” Jiang Qianqian said, glancing at him from the corner of her eyes. Her hands were crossed in front of her chest, and she tilted her head to one side. It was obvious that she already knew about the fact that he had kicked the ranking today.

“Congratulations, Brother Xiao,” Yumu Shisan said with a smile.

“You’re too kind. Brother Yumu, are you also here to challenge the ranking list today?”

Xiao Chen could tell that their cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds in the past month. He could not see through Yumu Shisan, but Jiang Qianqian was already in the Nirvana Realm. She had the strength to enter the Earth Ranking.

“Brother Xiao’s move today is indeed earth-shattering, which is really eye-opening and admirable.” Yumu Shisan still had a smile on his face, and he slightly cupped his hands and said.

Xiao Chen also smiled and cupped his hands and said, “No, no. But I forgot one thing. It seems that although Brother Yumu and Miss Jiang are cultivating in other places, but are also newcomers to the Purple Thunder Pavilion, right?”

Although Xiao Chen was smiling, he had already guessed the reason for the sudden arrival of these two people. The reason why he wanted to defeat all the people of the Purple Thunder Pavilion on the Earth Ranking today was not only so that Wind-heeding Pavilion can go cultivate in the first area, but also that Beigong Qin and his company would have to go to the fourth area to cultivate.

As long as no one from Beigong Qin and his gang was in the Earth Ranking, they could only go to the fourth zone for cultivation next month. However, after thousands of calculations, he still miscalculated. He did not expect these two people to come all of a sudden. These two people were also the new disciples of the Purple Thunder Pavilion. As long as they entered the Earth Ranking, Beigong Qin and the others could still go to the second zone to cultivate.

However, it was definitely not because of Beigong Qin that they had suddenly arrived. They did not have any relationship with him, so there was no reason for them to save Beigong Qin’s face. The only possibility was that the First Grandmaster asked them to come.

“Hehe, I think that Brother Xiao must have gained quite a lot during this month, right?” Yumu Shisan continued to smile as he spoke.

“Brother Yumu, same to you…”

Xiao Chen was also smiling, but he was thinking carefully about this. With their current cultivation, they could at least make it into the top 60 of the Earth Ranking. Then even if Beigong Qin could not go to the first zone next month, Beigong Qin could at least stay in the second zone. Then what he had just done would be in vain, wouldn’t it?

“But what can I do now? Can I stop them from getting on the list? Besides, it’s impossible for Chu Qi to kick them out. Even if she can, she can’t go to kick them out.”

Everyone knew that it was only because Beigong Qin and he were not on good terms with each other and that was why he was kicking them out of the list. Hence, that could not be considered as being enemies with the Purple Thunder Pavilion. However, if he went to kick Yumu Shisan and Jiang Qianqian, it would mean that he was targeting the entire Purple Thunder Pavilion. At that time, not only that would make Shui Yue difficult, but he would also be provoking the senior disciples of the Purple Thunder Pavilion. At that time, he would not be able to stay in the Cloud Mist Academy anymore. At least, from the perspective of his current strength, that would be the case.

After weighing the pros and cons, Xiao Chen smiled and soon felt relieved. He made an obeisance by cupping one hand in the other before his chest and said, “Well, I’d like to wish Brother Yumu and Miss Jiang all the best at getting a good place in the list.”

Jiang Qianqian sneered and said, “You’re so arrogant. I thought you were going to kick the two of us as well…” Before she could finish her words, Yumu Shisan who was next to her, immediately reached out to stop her and gave a look. Jiang Qianqian snorted, turned around, and walked back to the Mystic Sky Pavilion.

Yumu Shisan chuckled, then he smiled at Xiao Chen and said, “Junior Sister was rude with her words. Brother Xiao, please don’t mind it. In this case, I’ll count on Brother Xiao’s lucky words and go off first.” After that, he smiled and nodded, then he turned around and went to the Mystic Sky Rankings.

Xiao Chen squeezed his fingers, thinking that since the First Grandmaster sent these two people to save the situation, then his actions just now must have annoyed him. Now he was not strong enough, and Shui Yue probably would not be like Bai Ying, protecting him all the time.

As such, he could only endure. Beigong Qin, you were lucky this time!

“Senior Brother…” Chu Qi noticed that something was wrong, so she also came over at this time.

“Well, I know. Let them go.” Xiao Chen’s eyes became a little sharp. But no matter what, at least next month, the first zone would belong to the Wind-heeding Pavilion, and he finally did not fail to fulfill the promise he made to Tianyu and the others.

“I’m going to restore my Mystic Power. You can lead Tianyu and the others to compete in the Human Ranking.”

After that, Xiao Chen walked to the recovery formation. After a while, he would fight for the ordinary ranking list again to see which place he would be at this time.

At dusk, the number of people at the Mystic Sky Pavilion gradually decreased. The competition for the rankings this time was not as fierce as expected. The rankings on the Heaven Ranking List had not changed at all, and only Xiao Chen had made a small stir on the Earth Ranking List. As for the rankings on Human Ranking, although they were changing all the time, they obviously could not stir up any trouble.

When he opened his eyes, Xiao Chen’s Mystic Power had completely recovered. He walked toward the Mystic Sky Rankings. The Senior Brother who was in charge of the ranking list saw him coming and his attitude became even better this time. He smiled and asked, “Are you going to challenge the ordinary ranking list?”

“Yes.” Xiao Chen nodded. He had carefully observed the place just now. There should be no one targeting him. Therefore, after he made the list, no one would come here to challenge him deliberately. After he registered, he walked to the stone room for the ordinary ranking list.

When the people behind him saw that he went for the ordinary ranking list, they immediately began to discuss again. After all, if he could kick down Beigong Qin on the 13th ranking, it meant that he could go more than 13th. This time, everyone was more curious about his ranking. After all, the top ten were all purple badge senior disciples with high cultivation. If a newcomer could rank in the top ten, that would be record-breaking for the past few decades.

Inside the stone room, this time, Xiao Chen met that strange Illusory Beast again. Although it was huge, it did not look fierce. On the contrary, it looked stupidly cute, lying on the ground and sleeping. Its saliva wet all over the ground.

With a smile, Xiao Chen put away his unpleasant mood and punched the Illusory Beast twice. This time, he woke it up. The Illusory Beast raised its head and looked around blankly. When it saw Xiao Chen, it immediately felt refreshed as if it had seen an acquaintance. It suddenly stood up and began to stick its tongue out. “Pthbbpt…”
