Martial World's
Chapter 59 - The Gap Between the New and the Old
As Wang Yanfeng looked around the altar, his skin sank. He suddenly became the first to be knocked out! Beside him, another 11 people were still at the altar!
“I... how... am I the worst?”
“Do not despair.” An indifferent cold voice sounded from Wang Yanfeng's ears nearby. Wang Yanfeng turned around and looked; the one speaking was the Earth Hall instructor, Hong Xi.
“Ke-11 at the altar are some of the most outstanding disciples in Earth Hall. Your rating is not too bad.” Hong Xi said while referring to the Ranked Stone to his side. Wang Yanfeng's name was now impressively set at rank 168. This result was far from a top talent ranked 150 and above, but it should not be forgotten that Wang Yanfeng was only 15 years old. If he studied for six years in the Seven Profound Martial Houses, it would already be a problem that he would enter the Celestial Realm. Even making the top ten in the Ranking stone was not impossible in five or six years.
Although Hong Xi said his ranking was not bad, Wang Yanfeng was dissatisfied and dissatisfied with this result. Liu Mingxiang was ranked 125th. The difference is too big.
He could not help but glance at Lin Ming. He saw that he looked indifferent, and was otherwise very calm.
“This guy is stronger than me, but it's not a ridiculous power. If I was ranked 168, then he might be ranked 150. Zhang Cang who had a match with him was rank 109, and perhaps even higher this time, wasn't he worried?
At this moment, several more people were shot by the Ten Thousand Killing Array; their ratings varied from 120 to 150.
Then after a while, a few more people were expelled, Liu Mingxiang was impressively among them. The end result was an incredible rank 122, but he was unable to jump with 5 ranks.
Liu Mingxiang reached into his clothes and took out the pill he drank. He recovered slightly, and smiled as he looked to Wang Yanfeng. This result was more or less as he expected.
Wang Yanfeng's face was ugly. He finally understood the gap between the new disciple and the old disciple! The Seven Profound Martial House was a gathering place for talents and geniuses. The disciples of this Earth Hall were geniuses among geniuses. Other than the resources provided by the Seven Profound Martial House and the lectures and guidance from renowned instructors, how could they not progress so quickly?
Liu Mingxiang had already been listed here for two years; this gap was not the least bit unusual!
Wang Yanfeng clenched his first hand. He knew very well that in the match between him and Liu Mingxiang, he would definitely lose. But he will keep fighting. All that was lost, he would get it back in the future!
“Rank 168? Heh heh, how gentle. ” Wang Mang sneered with a smile when he saw Wang Yanfeng's rank.
“This position is about 100 or 200 points. All I have to do is kill four people at the peak of the Third Stage of Body Transformation and I will achieve it. This father had once killed six martial artists at the border who had the same cultivation. This time I will really rise to the rank of 150!” Le Tie rubbed the tip of his nose with his thumb, full of fighting spirit. He was a martial artist whose cultivation was at the peak of the Third Stage of Body Cultivation. Due to his many years as a professional mercenary who constantly teased death, his combat prowess was far above that of similar martial artists with the same cultivation.
“We brothers should get at least rank 150 before showing our faces to Lin Ming and Wang Yanfeng again. We will surpass them, otherwise we are really trash. ”
“The second chapter begins. Up!”
The magic array started to spin and activate again. Wang Mang and Le Tie took a spot beside each other, and after standing there, Wang Mang turned around and said, "Hey, First Place, aren't you going up?"
“You first.” Lin Ming replied as he glanced at Zhang Tie and Wang Mang. The two had a very heavy murderous air around them; they had obviously killed many people in the past. Generally, such a person would not be weak.
A ray of light from the magic array flashed, and Wang Mang and Li Tie entered the Ten Thousand Killing Array.
The weapon of these two people was a broadsword. It was a weapon that could kill a large number of enemies within the gathered crowd and possessed incredible strength. But these two people soon realized that the Ten Thousand Killer Array was much more difficult than they had previously thought. Although Li Tie had killed six martial artists who were at the peak of the Viscera Stage at the border, it had been done one by one. Now he had to simultaneously guard and fend off the attacks of ten enemies who were all gathered on him. Let alone killing someone at the pinnacle of Viscera Training, even someone at the early stages of Viscera Training would not be easy. As for the enemies in the Second Stage of Body Transformation, Flesh Training, he managed to fend them off and kill one, but a Viscera Training level opponent directly replaced him. Even the Fourth Stage of Body Transformation, Altering Muscle opponents began to appear. The more they kill, the more dangerous their situation is!
Final Result. Wang Mang, rank 156. Li Tie, rank 158.
They haven't been able to enter the top 150 rankings yet!
When this couple was shot by the Ten Thousand Killing Array, they saw the results in the Ranking Stone and could not help but feel an agonizing frustration. Their precious superior combat strength was not enough to make them reach the top 150!
In addition, they are already 18 years old and have little room for improvement. Perhaps even when they graduated from the Seven Profound Martial House, they would not be able to reach the top 100.
Lin Ming watched this desperate couple leave. In his heart he already knew that to enter the top 150 in the first assessment was to become a top talent. But sometimes even top talent may not always have good results. Wang Yanfeng was considered a top-tier talent, but unfortunately it could be said that he was too young.
He looked at Zhang Cang. Zhang smiled as he looked back.
“Zhang Cang This is half a step to the Altering Muscle stage. But if it was just a normal peak Altering Muscle martial artist, they might not be his match. Although I have the Great Success stage of the 'True Primal Chaos Formula', to defeat it is now impossible. ”
“Liang Tieshan is on stage. He was the third place among the new disciples. ” Some people in the crowd recognized Liang Tieshan. This person's powerful and large physique left an extremely strong impression.
“Liang Tieshan and Lin Ming both have innate divine power. The third place in the entrance examination this time around also obtained the Golden Snake Scarlet Pill, seeing Liang Tieshan's performance, we can only jump 20 or 30 ranks to guess Lin Ming's performance.
Liang Tieshan was often compared to Lin Ming because both of them were of the same age and also possessed innate divine power.
After Liang Tieshan took the stage, he gave a rude smile and then made long strides towards the Ten Thousand Killing Array. He had long since drunk the Golden Snake Scarlet Pill, and now he was already half a step into the Viscera Training stage. Breakthrough to the next stage is only a matter of time. His cultivation was not too different from Wang Yanfeng, and his innate divine might definitely covered most of the gap.
Although Liang Tieshan's cultivation was the same as Wang Yanfeng's, he still did not have the actual combat experience that Wang Yanfeng had. He also lacked Wang Yanfeng's martial skills, the 'Nine Paths of Truth' and movement skills, the 'Seven Desperate Steps'. Finally, Liang Tieshan had also been shot slightly earlier than Wang Yanfeng from the Ten Thousand Killing Array. His last rank was 176, and he had entered the top 180 which was quite rare, but could not be considered a top-tier talent.
"Liang Tieshan, rank 176. Wang Yanfeng, rank 168. I wonder what rank this Lin Ming can attain?"
As the audience talked about, Lin Ming jumped onto the stage.
"Hi! New student number one has gone on stage!”
“I don't know anything about this person, but I heard he has innate divine power and has eaten some rare and precious materials. He might be able to advance to the top 150. ”
“Do you think it's easy to get into the top 150 rankings? Except for Ling Sen, Ta Ku, and Zhang Guanyu, no other 15-year-old had made it into the top 150. He took first place in the entrance examination because he was young and had the advantage of rushing to the Exquisite Pagoda. But the Ten Thousand Killing Array was impartial to age. ” Said a disciple with a hint of jealousy. This student is 19 years old.
“Haha, you envy others who are aging because they are young. The Exquisite Pagoda was the prettiest stage; no matter your age, it only tested the level of talent. But with this Ten Thousand Killing Array, the young martial artists actually suffered great losses. This Lin Ming was only 15 years old, he might be able to enter the top 160 rankings. Even 170 is a top-tier talent! Reaching around 140 or 150 symbolizes a terrible genius! Ling Sen, Ta Ku, and Zhang Guanyu had all reached those ranks when they had their first rank war. That time was truly a convergence of talent, how could the appraisal this time compare?
When mentioning Ling Sen, Ta Ku, and Zhang Guanyu, the expressions of the few people present changed. The three of them possessed a tremendous amount of prestige and strength they had gained over the years, even more so than some elusive core disciples and Qin Xingxuan. They were almost chosen to become core disciples themselves, but still enjoyed a large amount of resources and did not need to participate in the rank assessment of the Ten Thousand Killing Array. Even the lectures they attended, their practice, and their skill manuals were all beyond what an ordinary disciple could possess.
For this reason, to ordinary disciples, the concept of the existence of a core disciple like Qin Xingxuan was too far-reaching and incomprehensible. He was not at all like a Martial House disciple. Hence his accumulation of prestige and fame was less than Ling Sen, Ta Ku, and Zhang Guanyu.
