Chapter 2265: Old Ancestor Shouzhe’s Greatest Secret (Part 4)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Leiwansui is indeed the young elite of the Lei Family, possessing a Great Heavenly Proud Second Rate bloodline.

And Situ Yangyu from Liang Country is no weakling either, and is currently a famous young elite throughout the Liang Country.

This fight was another fierce one. However, in the end, it was Leiwansui who held on to the last, retaining his spot in the rankings. But Situ Yangyu was not discouraged, declaring he would rest for a few days before challenging the twenty-fifth place on the Celestial Ranking, "Chen Shichao."

He’s a young elite from the Da Qian Chen Clan.

Soon after, the third challenger stepped up.

Obviously, both the Immortal and Demon Dynasties were making numerous moves behind the scenes, aiming to compete fiercely on the rankings, attempting to declare to the other, "I am the boss here."

As the battles on the Celestial List were fiercely competitive, the Spirit Platform List also saw frequent changes, with young people from the Immortal-Demon Dynasties and various affiliated nations taking turns to climb the ranks.

"Senior Brother Liu, what’s going on?"

While Liu Gaoliang and others were watching the spectacle, a group of students from Changning Academy squeezed in. Accompanying them were teachers from various departments, and even a dignified-looking mature man followed behind.

"President Lu."

Liu Gaoliang hurried forward to greet him, and exchanged pleasantries with the teachers and students.

This President Lu was Lu Xianghui, the current president of Changning Academy.

He was initially just an ordinary disciple in the Longzuo Academy, but after leading Wang Liyao on a journey, his luck skyrocketed and he became Wang Liyao’s follower. Over the years, he diligently assisted Wang Liyao, making very few mistakes, and reaped considerable benefits, rising rapidly in status.

Now, at just over two hundred years old, he successfully entered the Purple Abode Realm, becoming a notable figure.

Though his current status is still slightly below former greats like Master Xuanyao and Master Changchun from the academy, it’s not far behind.

"Junior Brother Zhaixing," Liu Gaoliang said, wiping his sweat, to a young man in the crowd, "Your original position of ninety-third is unlikely to be maintained."

Everyone looked intently at the leaderboard.

Good heavens! The Spirit Platform List had several Spirit Platform Realm contenders defeated, and Dongfang Zhaixing, originally ranked ninety-third, had fallen to ninety-seventh. Dongfang Lingrou also dropped from an original ninety-first position to ninety-fifth!

Dongfang Zhaixing was a newly risen young elite from the Sixth Grade Dongfang Clan of Xinping Town. Originally just a Little Sky Pride Second Rate bloodline, the Dongfang Clan had tightened their belts to support him in secret. He too worked hard and received numerous scholarships, eventually joining the Sky Pride ranks, securing a spot on the Spirit Platform List.

This is not easy for any Prominent Family.

The reason is simple. The Changning Wang Clan and other in-law families are too strong. Especially the Wang family, which almost dominantly occupied the list. The freakish Wang Baoguang, ranked first, could even cross realms to fight Heavenly Proud Level of Human Realm. His combat prowess is exceptionally strong.

"It’s a bloody storm," Dongfang Zhaixing sighed helplessly at the scene, "With all the Sky Prides from the Immortal and Demon Dynasties joining the ranks, the list is destined to be unpredictable for this period."

For Sky Prides like them who are at the tail end, it’s unlikely to secure a spot unless they cultivate to the Spiritual Platform Realm summit and try again. But by then, the internal competition might be fiercer. Who knows if Sky Prides can still squeeze into the top hundred?

A group of Great Zhou scholars felt even more hopeless.

Is Dongqian Changning the world’s center where they’ve come to study, and why are there so many freaks here? This place is terrifying! Mother, sob, I want to go home~~~

Meanwhile, amidst the bustling scene below, in the Void Realm Suite at the top of the inn, Immortal Emperor Muyun had already drunk a lot of wine, along with Wang Shouzhe who was also forced to drink quite a bit.

"Young Master Shouzhe, let’s drink another cup together."

"Wang Shouzhe, are you disrespecting the Emperor?"

"Shouzhe, we’re allies who have fought together. Surely you won’t deny me this small courtesy?"

Under Immortal Emperor Muyun’s coaxing and threats, Wang Shouzhe was compelled to drink quite a bit. Even with his strong constitution, so much Xianling Wine, brewed from Spirit Rice, had him feeling a bit light-headed.

He thought to himself that this wasn’t good.

The Emperor was acting like he wanted to eat human~ He needed to find a way to leave quickly.

Just as he was racking his brains for a solution to get away.

Suddenly.

There was a conversation outside the door: "Manager Qi, since Tianzi Room No. 3 has guests, let’s forget it."

"Never mind, this room offers the best view for watching the battles, and naturally we should prioritize fulfilling the young master’s needs," another middle-aged man’s voice said, "I’ve checked the records, and the room was booked by a single female visitor from a Fifth Grade Immortal Dynasty prominent family. We’ll offer her three times the price and give her Room No. 4 instead. She’ll earn a lot of money from the room, why would she be unwilling? Rest assured, young master, leave it all to me."

While speaking.

The doorbell already rang, "Ding Dong, Ding Dong."

Wang Shouzhe broke out in a cold sweat: "Muyun, let me hide first."

Saying this, he was about to tear open space and try to escape.

"Hide? We aren’t done drinking yet!" Immortal Emperor Muyun was displeased, grabbing Wang Shouzhe’s arm and pulling him onto the sofa beside him, then used his God Sense to open the door, "Let me deal with the intruders first, and we shall resume our drinking."

"Crack!"

The door opened.

A middle-aged man dressed as a manager and a handsome young man with an extraordinary aura appeared at the door.

Looking closely, the young man actually bore a slight resemblance to Wang Shouzhe.

"Honorable guest..."

The middle-aged manager politely gave a small bow to the two inside, about to deliver the prepared lines, when the young man suddenly changed his expression, quickly grabbed him, and threw him out, then rushed in, slamming the door.

The young man leaned against the door, refusing to look at the scene inside the room, sweat trickling down his forehead, his expression rigid, pupils blank. His look was as if he’d caught a significant secret.

At this moment, the young man’s heart was in turmoil, with only one thought circling in his mind: What to do? What should I do now?

"Wang Baoguang!" Wang Shouzhe glared at the young man, angrily saying, "What are you doing? What’s that expression?"

This young man was none other than Wang Baoguang, the top-ranked youth on the Spirit Platform List, now the figure of countless spotlights in the younger generation.

The Changning Wang family now had nearly two thousand clan members, and more were added each year. Many younger members Wang Shouzhe couldn’t even recognize, but Wang Baoguang came from the Wang Clan’s direct secondary line, being a great-grandson of Wang Shihao’s son Wang Anru. As a rare member of the "Bao" generation among the Wang clan’s direct lineage, Wang Shouzhe was naturally familiar with him.

"Old, Old Ancestor, rest assured, I, I am tight-lipped," Wang Baoguang swallowed hard, almost collapsing to the ground in fear, "I, I would never say a word even if beaten to death."

"What nonsense?" Wang Shouzhe barely resisted the urge to explode in anger, "I was just having a drink with Emperor Muyun and discussing the future global trends."

Mu, Emperor Muyun?

Immortal Emperor?

Wang Baoguang was struck as if by lightning, tears pouring uncontrollably down his cheeks.

This was major trouble. He accidentally uncovered the Old Ancestor and the Immortal Emperor’s secret! Sobbing, the gossip Zongkun Old Ancestor whispered last time was true!
