The King of the Gods
Chapter 37: The Challenge of Rankings


"OK, we will act as the two main judges have said and allow Zhao Feng to participate." Sect head Zhao Tiancang looked at Zhao Feng attractively.


With the sect head and the two main judges agreeing, no one dared to oppose them. This was the first time Zhao Feng felt he had his sect.


Zhao Tianjian trembled in anger. He did not believe that Zhao Feng could come back alive.


"The gray light has failed." With the power of the gray eagle, how could he possibly fail?


"Zhao Feng!"


The judge said, "I'll explain the rules to you now."


""Yes." Yeah." Zhao Feng listened carefully.


People are challenging each other in this tournament. The first round of the "spot challenge" was when fifty outer disciples challenged fifty inner disciples. If they win, they take the place of the inner disciple. Every outer disciple had three opportunities to challenge someone, if they lost all three challenges then they would still be outer disciples. Therefore, before the outer disciples challenged anyone, they would first have to estimate their own strength and choose the weaker inner disciples.


"Zhao Feng, since you're late, you only have one chance to challenge someone." Speak firmly to the judge.


One chance?


Zhao Feng nodded his head: "I understand." With his strength, he could easily become an inner disciple. Unless Zhao Feng was retarded and chose someone like Zhao Linlong, he would win. Clearly, Zhao Feng would do that and directly challenge the strongest person.


“Now you can choose one person. If you win, you can take their place.” Judge warns.


"okay!" Zhao Feng jumped onto the stage and observed fifty people.


Fifty people, fifty seats all arranged in order.


Sequences from left to right were Zhao Linlong, Zhao Chi, Zhao Han, Zhao Qin….


The first row of ten represented the top ten inner disciples. In the seventh seat of the second row, Zhao Feng looked at Zhao Yufei. Zhao Yufei looked at him and smiled gently. The two are neighbors and quite familiar with each other.


Zhao Yue, Zhao Yijian, Zhao Gan, Zhao Guang were among the forty and fifty rank. Other than Zhao Feng, there were only five others who had become inner disciples.


Who should I challenge? Zhao Feng smiled as he examined them. Zhao Linlong, who was in the first place closed his eyes, as if he was trying to gain insight into something. It seems like the tournament had nothing to do with him.,


The top inner disciple was not even worried. However, the disciples who were at the bottom ranked were nervous. After all, Zhao Feng was a top outer disciple. He could easily reach the top ten with his strength.


“Second line...Sixth seat.” Zhao Feng's eyes are fixed on the person to Zhao Yufei's right.


"Number sixteen" Zhao Fei ", please come out" said the judge. Zhao Fei was sixteen or seventeen years old. He had a peak third rank cultivation, but his aura was no weaker than a fourth rank cultivator.


"Son, don't think that you can defeat me just because you have reached the fourth rank!" Zhao Fei calmly walked on the stage.


“Heh, this Zhao Fei is quite strong. With his [Block Metal Body], he defeated two pseudo-martial artists.”


"Zhao Feng might not progress smoothly."


In terms of winning, Zhao Feng clearly had a higher chance. But his opponent's strength was also not weak, so it would be a difficult fight.


“Palm Sand Metal!” Zhao Fei only used middle-tier martial arts.


Pa!


Its damage was higher than most high-ranking martial arts. This was because it had been trained to the peak level!


Zhao Feng was slightly moved. At the outer disciple contest, only he trained in middle-tier martial arts to high level. The problem was, Zhao Fei's Metal Sand Palm equipped its Block Metal Body. Therefore, this palm could defeat Zhao Yijian's Ice Flowing Sword.


"Zhao Fei's strength was no weaker than a half-step martial artist right now." Some inner disciples nodded in agreement.


Fire Metal Boxing!


Zhao Feng casually threw a punch. He used a core ranked martial art. Not only that, he did not add Inner Strength to it.


This scene caused many people to be shocked. Not using Inner Strength meant that he had no advantage.


"Son, don't try to be cool!" Zhao Fei took a deep breath and circulated the Block Metal Body and Metal Sand Palm to the maximum.


Originally he did not think that he would defeat Zhao Feng, he could only argue a little. But because his opponent was so arrogant…


On the stage, the two figures approached each other and fists and palms struck each other.


"Destroy-"


Zhao Fei had a face of urgency and happiness But reality was cruel.


As soon as his palm hit the fist, he felt an incredible force turn off his arm.


Uh!


Zhao Fei started to sweat. He felt that Zhao Feng was as strong as a bull.


Pong—


Zhao Fei did not even understand what was happening and he was sent flying. One movement. All Zhao Feng needed to defeat Zhao Fei was just one move. Although it was not surprising that Zhao Feng would win, winning in one fell swoop was unpredictable.


"He won by using core rank martial arts and he did not use Inner Strength."


"Zhao Feng has learned a high rank body martial art ..."


……….


“Zhao Feng, challenge succeeded! You are ranked sixteenth for now. As for Zhao Fei, you have three chances to challenge someone ..." Judge stated.


After defeating Zhao Fei, Zhao Feng walked calmly towards the sixth seat of the second row. To his left was Zhao Yufei.


"Your Metal Wall Technique has reached at least the third level." Zhao Yufei said a little surprised. Zhao Feng had learned this skill from his grandfather.


According to his knowledge, the Metal Wall Technique was extremely difficult to train. His grandfather said that Zhao Feng would only be able to train him to the second level to the maximum. But from Zhao Fengs appearance, his Metal Wall Technique had reached at least the third level.


"Yes." Yeah." Zhao Feng smiled. His Metal Wall Technique had reached the peak of the fourth level. There was a huge difference between the third and fourth levels. Zhao Feng didn't even use half his strength when fighting Zhao Fei.


On the stage, the battle continued. According to the rules, Zhao Fei had another chance to challenge someone. Soon, Zhao Fei managed to defeat someone and was ranked twenty-six


The tournament had been postponed since Zhao Feng entered in the middle of the road.


Since there were fifty places for inner disciples and there were fifty-one people, one person was eliminated.


Zhao Feng and the other five outer disciples had become inner disciples.


“Spot challenge has been completed.” The jury sighed and began declaring the beginning of the next round. They went on to the Ranking tournament.


According to the previous news, the top twenty, ten and three had different rewards.


Especially the top three, they could choose a peak ranked martial art.


This was where Zhao Feng was especially moved. It is clear that competition will be fierce. Also, the disciples rank in deciding one's honor and glory. All the youths here were eighteen years old and under, and they had the desire to win.


“Tournament Rating” second round means you all have three chances to challenge someone. If you fail then your chances are reduced by one.” said the jury.


The rules are very clear.


The person ranked behind would challenge the one ranked higher. If they win, they will replace the opponent's ranking. Everyone only had three chances to challenge someone. If they succeed, they still have three chances, but if they fail, their chances are reduced by one.


"Understood." Fifty people nodded their heads.


The last rank challenged the others first. It first started with a rank of fifty.


However, to those at the bottom, they were already very happy to be inner disciples and they knew that they had no chance of reaching the top twenty.


Hence, not many people challenged others between the forty and fifty rank.


Even if there were, they just wanted to show off and they won a higher rank even if they did not get any prizes.


The Forty.. Thirty-Nine…


The rankings edged closer and closer. When it reached the twentieth to the thirtieth place, the battle became increasingly fierce. People like Zhao Yue, Zhao Yijian had all reached the top thirty. Zhao Yijian reached the twelfth and Zhao Yue had reached the fifteenth.


Overall, the top twenty inner disciples had the strength of martial artists. Zhao Feng and Zhao Yufei were both true martial artists so no one dared to challenge them. There were less than ten disciples who had reached the fourth rank of the martial path.


After the top twenty was confirmed, they started competing for the top ten. Soon, it was Zhao Yufei's turn to challenge someone. Zhao Feng would challenge someone after Zhao Yufei's turn.


There were many ten inner disciples who had yet to reach the fourth rank of the martial path.


Zhao Yufei decided to challenge the number six and he won his match easily.


After reaching the top ten, Zhao Yufei gave up his chance to continue challenging someone. This way, he could still save his two chances for the next two rounds.


"Number sixteen Zhao Feng, it's your turn." At this time, the judge stated.
