Chapter Eighty Entering the Rankings

  At this moment, Wang Xuanyang is on a closed arena, with light membranes below, around and above him, isolating the outside world.

  He can't see what's going on outside.

  But he knew that there were thousands of inner disciples watching outside.

  This is his first battle in the ranking war.

  He absolutely cannot afford to lose, otherwise he will have nothing to do with the ranking list.

  Not long after, a figure emerged from the light membrane and walked onto the stage.

  This was a young man in purple clothes, looking very handsome, but with a sinister taste in his eyes. He glanced at Wang Xuan Yang and said disdainfully: "You kid, you actually chose me, this is good too, first warm up, this time, I Li Xueqian will make a stunning debut, let others know how much progress I have made in the past year."

  Wang Xuanyang didn't say a word, this was his first time facing off against an Explosive Hole Symbol Master head-on.

  Last time in the quicksand sea, he killed the black-clad man, but it was an ambush.

  He currently has too little actual combat experience, this ranking battle is his chance.

  He participates in ranking battles, not just for the sake of ranking, but also to enhance his actual combat experience.

  Taking advantage of the opportunity when the young man in purple clothes, Li Xueqian, was speaking, he moved his hand slightly and manipulated the Moonlight Sword Symbol in his mind. Three combined sword auras burst out from his true acupoint, combining according to the rules of the Moonlight Sword Technique, resembling three points of light interweaving, rotating, and being incredibly dreamy.

  This is Wang Xuan Yang's Moonlight Sword Technique, and it's being used in actual combat for the first time.

  "Three sword lights? Hmph, too weak. Even if I stand still, you won't be able to break through my defense."

  Li Xueqian didn't take Wang Xuanyang seriously at all. "I've just cultivated a defensive talisman, and I'll use you as an experiment!"

  Suddenly, a layer of strange scales rose from his body, just like layers of fish scales combined.

  Wang Xuanyang didn't hesitate and took action immediately.

  In an instant, the sword energy shot out.

  Li Xueqian stood still, his face expressionless.

  Whoosh!

  Three sword energies shot out like lightning and landed on the layer of scales.

  In an instant, the momentum of the sword energy was blocked.

  Wang Xuanyang felt that the layer of scales seemed to have a strange power, and in a slight tremor, it actually dissipated the sword energy's might.

  "What is this?"

  Wang Xuanyang couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised.

  Li Xueqian was only a low-ranking inner sect disciple who had opened up about twenty or so true cavities.

  In fact, in terms of opening up the true cave, this person is still inferior to Wang Xuan Yang.

  However, Wang Xuan Yang used the Hunyuan True Seed to conceal his own cultivation, so ordinary people thought he had only opened up a few true orifices.

  "Hmm, this sword aura is quite powerful!"

  Li Xueqian felt a great deal of pressure from the sword energy released by Lin Feng and couldn't help but be slightly shocked.

  It's just three sword auras, yet the power is so great. Obviously, there's something wrong with this sword aura. After all, his defensive talisman has already mobilized the power of twelve true acupoints.

  Wang Xuanyang's spirit is closely linked to his sword energy, through which he senses the subtlety of the scales' light. Under his perception, this light seems to be composed of countless strange scale units, appearing dense yet with gaps. However, it requires extremely high-level control techniques to break through these gaps, as the scales' light changes constantly and the location of the gaps also shifts constantly.

  Wang Xuanyang's mind stirred, his sword energy shook, and the rotational speed increased. The three sword energies surprisingly shifted three inches horizontally, then shrunk, and suddenly pierced through and entered.

  Crunch...

  On the scales of light, a shocking crack appeared.

  Before Li Xueqian could react, the scales of light that had protected him shattered and broke apart, turning into countless fragments. Most of them flew in all directions, while some were directly hit and dissipated, meaning the spiritual energy within the symbol unit was dispersed.

  "How is this possible?"

  Li Xueqian's face was full of surprise, but at this time, that sword energy had already approached his front.

  He was frightened out of his wits.

  Fortunately, the sword energy stopped at his brow, and he could feel Death itself so close.

  He directly fell on his buttocks and sat paralyzed on the ground.

  His face turned pale, and he muttered to himself: "Impossible, how can a low-level sword aura technique composed of only three sword auras possibly break through my Scales Light Armor Technique?"

  "Big brother, do you admit defeat?"

  Wang Xuanyang's voice rang out.

  Li Xueqian finally reacted, his face full of disbelief, and shouted loudly: "Impossible, I couldn't have lost."

  But the next moment, he didn't dare to shout again, because the sword energy between his eyebrows was slightly shaking, as if it would pierce him at any time.

  "You win, I concede."

  Li Xueqian was extremely unwilling.

  He actually lost to a newcomer, and not long ago, he was thinking of showing off his skills!

  The drop is too big.

  He would even become a joke, after all, losing to a newcomer, such an example is very small, in the past he also ridiculed those people, but, he himself became one of them.

  As he admitted defeat, he felt a shock throughout his body and disappeared from the stage.

  The next moment, he was already standing at the edge of Mo Yun Tai. He looked again at the giant ranking monument in the center, and on the last row, his name actually appeared.

  Wang Xuanyang, ranked four thousand seven hundred and ninety-eight.

  As for Li Xueqian, who was challenged by him, he has already been eliminated and ranked last.

  At this time, other arenas have also ended, without exception, all of them failed in their challenges.

  The remaining two arenas also had newcomers at a disadvantage, completely being bullied by the old-timers.

  But at this time, no one on the platform is paying attention to these two arenas anymore.

  Everyone's attention was drawn to the changes in the ranking list.

  Newcomer challenge succeeded.

  It's already unknown how many years it hasn't appeared, at least in the last two or three years it hasn't appeared.

  Naturally, Wang Xuan Yang received a lot of attention, representing his great potential and the possibility of becoming one of the top ten figures in the future.

  "Good job."

  Fat master couldn't help but stand up, his face full of surprise.

  He is really happy!

  Lin Zidan and others were also shocked.

  "What? He actually entered the rankings?"

  Weng Baoqi's face turned very unsightly.

  The more Wang Xuan Yang showed his amazing potential, the less it was a good thing for him.

  Wang Xuanyang returned to the spectator stand, sat down, and Fat Brother and others congratulated him with a smile. Wang Xuanyang was not that kind of person with deep city walls either, so he naturally felt happy too. At the same time, he also had some understanding of his own strength, and he was confident that he could move up some ranks in the ranking list.

  Not long after, the challenges of the thirteen arenas all came to an end.

  Except for Wang Xuan Yang, everyone else failed.

  Li Xuan Ting and his group looked at Wang Xuan Yang with complex eyes, their mood was also complicated. They knew that the gap between them and Wang Xuan Yang had been getting bigger and bigger.

  Wang Xuanyang sat calmly in the stands, savoring the previous battle in his heart. His inner self was not as calm as the surface, and at the moment he defeated Li Xueqian, he felt that the blood in his body had completely boiled over, as if a mysterious door had been opened.

  Fight!

  Enjoy the thrill of battle.

  This is the awakening of the fighting spirit in his bones.

  For him, this battle was his first formal fight, as for those before, they didn't count as battles.

  At this moment, he looked forward to the next challenge even more.

  After the newcomer challenge, it was the first time participating in the ranking battle, but already a pseudo-newcomer who has been in the industry for over a year.

  There were as many as seventy or eighty of this kind of pseudo-new humans.

  However, the space of Mo Yun Tai is enormous, with 70 to 80 energy fighting arenas rising up, and it's surprisingly very spacious, not feeling crowded at all.

  Such a grinding cloud platform can conduct hundreds of battles at once.

  Of course, if it's those strong masters of the symbol level, the battlefield will be too big and the required combat space will also increase a lot.

  These pseudo-newbies first carve their spiritual mark on the ranking monument, and next is choosing an opponent.

  Suddenly, Wang Xuanyang's spirit shook slightly, and he felt a message from the Ranking Monument, surprisingly, there was a challenger.

  And on the ranking stele, Wang Xuanyang's name also shone brightly.

  Wang Xuanyang couldn't help but laugh, it seemed that he had been chosen by a fake newcomer.

  This is normal, after all, he just rushed up the ranking monument as a newcomer, and in the eyes of those pseudo-newcomers, his strength was relatively weak. After all, persimmons are still to be picked soft, this truth everyone understands.

  However, Wang Xuan Yang had just gone through a battle and according to the ranking war rules, he could choose to decline.

  This is also to prevent the occurrence of wheel warfare.

  However, Wang Xuanyang was extremely eager for battle, and since someone had challenged him, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

  Let's fight with some weak people first and accumulate experience before talking.

  He hastily walked down from the viewing platform and re-entered the energy arena.
