The first in the world under the Saint realm had an extraordinary significance.
This was because, before a cultivator’s cultivation level was at the Saint realm, it was very difficult to come into contact with the world of saints.
Even the battles of the major ancient sects, lineages, and gateways all stayed at the level of half-saints at most, and saints wouldn’t easily make a move.
Once a Saint realm figure made a move, it also meant that the situation was already quite serious, and a bloody sect war, or sect war, could break out at any time.
The number one in the world under the Saint realm was already the strongest person that ninety-nine percent of cultivators could see with their own eyes.
The crowd was concerned about the ranking of the Half-Saint List, and even some of the nearby lotus platforms had cultivators with their ears perked up and were listening.
That scholar said, “On the Half-Saint Ranking, the Sword Emperor’s descendant, Xue Wuyi, is ranked fourth, and the Tai Sui King, Ji Huan Wang, is ranked ninth.”
Xue Sanyi said, “In other words, Xue Wuyi is the number one powerhouse under the Human Saint realm?”
“It’s meant to be true, Xue Wuye’s sword dao realm is profound and unfathomable, it has the elegance of the Sword Emperors of yesteryear.”
“In fact, I had long guessed that it would be Xue Wuyi, not long ago, there was news that Xue Wuyi had already cultivated the Sixth Sword to the Great Perfection, and was just one step away from becoming a Sword Saint.”
“Xue Wuye has also only just reached the realm of a Ninth Order Half-Saint, there’s still a lot of room for improvement in the future, reaching number one in the Half-Saint Ranking isn’t a difficult task.”
That scholar, however, smiled cheekily, “This time, you guys are really guessing wrong! In fact, the number one strongest person under the Saint realm of the Human Race is the Buddha Emperor’s heir, Master Standing Ground, ranked number two on the 『Semi-Saint List』.”
Everyone was surprised and felt incredulous.
“How could someone be stronger than Xue Wuyi?”Xue Sanyi immediately shook his head in disbelief.
That scholar said, “That’s just the way it is, Grandmaster Lidi refined the Buddha Emperor’s golden body into one with his own physical body, not only does he have unrivaled defense, he also has unparalleled power in the world.”
“Xue Wuyi fought with Master Standing Earth once, but was unable to break through Master Standing Earth’s defense at all, and could only fight Master Standing Earth to a draw.”
Next to a lotus platform, a wonderful young girl who had always admired Xue Wuyi was very unconvinced and said, “Since it was a tie, then the rankings should be the same.”
That scholar laughed and said, “Although the two are tied, however, Master Lidi possesses the Golden Body of the Buddha Emperor, his power is endless and vast. As long as Xue Wuyi can’t break through Grandmaster Lidi’s defenses, he will definitely lose if the battle continues for a long time.”
“However, Xue Wuyi is a dashing character, and after taking the initiative to admit that he was inferior to Grandmaster Lidi, he let out a cruel remark that he was going to go to Lin Yue of the Two Yi Sect and borrow the Void Sword to break Grandmaster Lidi’s golden body.”
The crowd laughed.
There wasn’t anyone who thought that Xue Wuyi was really inferior to Grandmaster Lidi.
This was because, with Xue Wuyi borrowing the Void Sword, there was indeed a high possibility of breaking Grandmaster Lidi’s Unbreakable Golden Body.
At once, some people brought the topic to “Lin Yue”.
After the Boundary Feast, “Lin Yue’s” name had already spread throughout the Central Region, and he was definitely a hot figure.
At the Boundary Sons Banquet, Lin Yue’s elegance had even surpassed that of the Nine Great Boundary Sons. However, he was willing to be one of Huang Yichen’s guards, and step by step, he sent Huang Yichen up to the First King Seat, and even the Realm Son Seat.
Later, when the news that Huang Yichen’s fiancé, Zhang Ruochen, was not dead, Lin Yue faded into obscurity and never appeared in public again.
Many people felt that Lin Yue was a tragic figure, pouring all his efforts into accomplishing Huang Yichen, but missing out on the opportunity to become a Sector Son himself.
“Today’s Lin Yue has been left far behind by the nine great Realm Sons, I’m afraid that even Huang Yichen is more than ten times stronger than him.”Xue Sanyi laughed.
However, Xue Sanyi had only just said it when he was verbally attacked by some of the Heavenly Daughters of the Sage Sect.
“A man of great talent like Lin Yue has long been the dream lover of countless young women, so naturally, he couldn’t allow outsiders to look down on him.”
A cardamom girl with two black pigtails, eyes infatuated, said: “Lin Yue’s talent is truly the best in the world. At the Boundary Son Banquet, no one was a match for the Third Prince of the Immortal Blood Clan, and it was he who powerfully defeated him with a single sword.”
Another Heaven’s Pride girl said, “I believe Lin Yue will definitely show up again, and when he does, it will shock the world once again.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t expect that there were actually so many women who worshipped “Lin Yue”, so naturally, his heart was still quite comfortable and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.
Seeing those female cultivators each with a cold brow, the crowd immediately did not dare to talk about Lin Yue anymore, and the topic returned to the Half-Saint List.
That scholar said, “This time, the Sacred Book Talented Lady not only compiled the Half-Saint List, but also the Half-Saint Outer List.”
“What ‘Half-Saint Outer List’?”
That scholar said, “The 『Half-Saint Outer List』 is somewhat special, with a total of nine hundred slots, containing five categories of beings.”
“The first category refers to some beings that are squeezed down from the top of the 『Half-Saint List』. They were once experts on the Half-Saint List, but now, they can only be ranked in the Half-Saint Outer List.”
“The second category, the powerhouses of the Undying Blood Race.”
“The third category, the undead from the netherworld.”
“The fourth category, their strength far exceeds that of a normal Ninth Order Half-Saint, and is only a little bit weaker than the powerhouses on the 『Half-Saint List』.”
“The fifth category, a group of beings who have not revealed their true strength in public. Their battle power is difficult to assess, and some of them are said to be not necessarily more powerful than the beings on top of the 『Half-Saint List』.”
“Of course, the beings that can be ranked on the Semi-Sacred Outer List are each and every one of them top-notch experts, and at least possess the strength to escape from the hands of Lower Realm Saints, and that, too, without the use of a Sacred Decree.”
Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen was also slightly moved and secretly said, “The Semi-Sacred Outer List is not to be underestimated, and with my current cultivation, along with the power of time and space, it would be a thousand times more difficult for me to escape from the hands of a Lower Realm Saint.”
After using the power of the third layer of the Sherpa’s Seal, Zhang Ruochen would also lose an important card move.
In the future, the chances of Zhang Ruochen being able to escape when he encountered a Lower Realm Saint without using the Sacred Decree could be described as slim to none.
Unless, his cultivation was able to break through to a Fifth Order Half-Saint, Zhang Ruochen’s certainty would be a bit greater.
That scholar said in a low voice, ”The gold content of the Semi-Saint Outer List is not below that of the Semi-Saint List. It is said that not long ago, Hail Chi, who was ranked ninth in the 『Half-Saint List』, fought once with a strong person ranked seventh in the 『Half-Saint Outer List』, and fought for two days and one night, and in the end, there was no winner or loser.”
Someone was shocked and said, “A draw with Hail Chi? There’s actually such a terrifying figure in the Half-Saint Outer Ranking?”
“This person is the prince of the Qingtian Clan, one of the ten major clans of the Immortal Blood Clan, and it is said that, having refined the blood of many humans, and even drinking a large amount of God’s blood, he is on the verge of becoming a saint in the flesh. “That scholar said in a low voice.
“On the verge of becoming a saint in the flesh?”
“It’s fortunate that it’s Hail Chi, if any other human Half-Saint had encountered him, I’m afraid he would already be dead.”
Xue Sanyi let out a long sigh, “The Half-Saint List and the Half-Saint Outer List gather the best heroes from the entire world, it’s just a pity that the number is too small, let alone us being ranked in, even if we want to meet one or two of them, it won’t be an easy task.”
That scholar wore a smile on his face as he said, “Soon, the beings on top of the Half-Saint List and the Half-Saint Outer List will more than likely erupt in a bloody battle. Many legendary figures should be involved.”
“How could that be? Even if something even bigger happens, those ancient relic species and divine beast descendants of the Barbarian Desolate Mysterious Realm shouldn’t get involved.”
A cultivator shook his head, simply not believing that there was anything that could startle the entire Half-Saint List and Half-Saint Outer List.
That scholar shook his folding fan and leisurely said, “Outside the Kunlun Realm, one of the most massive market realms, the Green Dragon Market Realm, is about to die out, and when that time comes, how could those ancient relic species and divine beast descendants not get involved? I’m afraid that the Immortal Blood Clan won’t stand idly by either, right?”
The cultivators present were not ordinary people, so they had naturally heard of the news of the Green Dragon Market Realm.
“In order to plunder the final value of the Green Dragon Ruins Realm, it’s not certain that quite a few characters above the Half-Saint List and the Half-Saint Outer List will really make a move in person.”
Just at this moment, Zhang Ruochen saw a familiar silhouette walking in from outside.
Not only Zhang Ruochen, but some of the other cultivators, too, noticed her, causing a flurry of agitation.
It couldn’t be helped that a woman as beautiful as her, who also had a supreme temperament, would be like a crane standing above the rest wherever she went, and would receive the attention of countless people.
“Who is this woman?”
Xue Sanyi’s gaze, staring at the body of that peerless woman, his eyes glowing, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but flow out droplets of saliva.
That scholar shook his head and said, “She is the Holy Daughter of one of the Seven Ancient Religions, the Blood God Religion, Shangguan Xianyan. Fatty Xue, you don’t need to look any further, this woman is a heavenly figure, not something you can get your hands on.”
Shangguan Xianyan was wearing a white dress, her snow-white skin, as if it was congealed fat, while at the same time, there were nine circles of holy light wrapping her delicate body, revealing a mysterious and hazy beauty.
With her as the leader, a group of Blood God Sect cultivators had walked into the Spirit Lake.
Xue Sanyi’s gaze was still fixed on Shangguan Xianyan’s body, muttering to himself, “Worthy of being the Holy Daughter of the Blood God Sect, if I can have a kiss, even if I am allowed to die, I am willing to do so.”
“The Holy Daughter of the Blood God Cult, how did she come to the Cai Clan’s Sacred Mansion?”Someone was quite curious.
That scholar said, “Shangguan Xianyan and the second miss of the Cai family, they are childhood friends, and the Shangguan family and the Cai family have also been friends for generations. Moreover, among the cultivators traveling with Shangguan Xianyan, there are old generation powerhouses from the Blood God Sect. Therefore, based on my guess, the purpose of their trip is most likely related to the Green Dragon Market Realm, and perhaps the Blood God Sect is trying to ally with the Cai Family in advance.”
Indeed, there were some Blood God Sect’s old generation powerhouses that traveled with Shangguan Xianyan, appearing to be very grand, and by no means just coming to a banquet.
Zhang Ruochen stared at the scholar called “Zhao Heng” and secretly said, “This person is so young to have become a Spiritual Power Half-Saint, he indeed has some outstanding qualities, and his analysis has some truth to it.
In a great era where heroes came out in great numbers, any young hero could not be underestimated.
