In the Eastern Palace.
“Elder Shen, there won’t be any more special physiques among the experts from Xi Liang this time, right?” Murong Xingqiao asked with a worried expression.
“Probably… so.” Shen Qiuming could not be sure himself.
Ji Qinglan’s guardian was an extremely young woman, but her cultivation realm was higher than his, and her aura was extraordinary.
Who knew if she had some kind of heaven-defying physique?
Therefore, Shen Qiuming was also very nervous at the moment. If the top spot was taken by the Xi Liang people, countless people in the Great Xia Dynasty would probably become deeply disheartened.
“Li Yu isn’t on the rankings yet. He might become number one!” Murong Xingqiao remembered Li Yu.
With such powerful capabilities, his physique should not be ordinary. Perhaps he did have a unique physique.
“I hope so!” Shen Qiuming prayed in his heart that no one from Xi Liang would top the rankings.
…
“Ji Qinglan is on the rankings! And he’s in second place!” Ye Qiu stood upright, his muscles tensed up, and his expression turned grim.
As the son of the Ye family, he valued the honor of his country greatly.
He knew that Ji Qinglan’s appearance in second place and surpassing Murong Xingqiao was already a form of humiliation in the eyes of many.
Furthermore, as a prospect himself, he was also unconvinced of Ji Qinglan’s abilities.
Previously, when he heard Ji Qinglan issue a challenge to Li Yu, his battle intent soared as well.
At the moment, seeing Ji Qinglan in second place, the desire to win and the battle intent in his heart simply spiked to an unprecedented level.
“Whelp. The nature of the rankings has changed!” Li Qingyun remarked calmly.
“Yeah, it all depends on whether the first place is from the Grand Xia Dynasty!” Li Yu nodded.
He naturally did not want the worst to happen.
After all, he was also a member of the Great Xia Dynasty. Although he was not as patriotic as Ye Qiu, he did not wish his country to become the laughing stock of foreign countries.
“I can’t believe that Ji Qinglan’s Connate Sword Physique is in second place!” Zhu Xiaotian’s brows were also tightly furrowed. Although he knew that Ji Qinglan’s physique was extraordinary, he did not expect Ji Qinglan to be ranked second in the Great Xia Dynasty.
“How could this be?” Yi Caidie frowned, feeling worried.
“Damn it, how did Ji Qinglan get on my Great Xia’s rankings? And he’s in second place!” Murong Tai bellowed angrily.
He was already displeased to see Murong Xingqiao on the rankings,
Witnessing a Xi Liang prince become the second on the rankings and suppress a group of elites of the Great Xia Dynasty infuriated him further.
He even began to worry that the first place could not be guaranteed to be someone from the Great Xia Dynasty due to how the ranking system worked.
If the top spot went to someone from Xi Liang, it would be too embarrassing for the country.
Countless people from the Great Xia Dynasty were also worried.
Ji Qinglan’s appearance changed the nature of this ranking completely.
This would affect the honor of a country and the honor of a nation.
Who would want to see their country’s geniuses trampled under the feet of the prodigies of other countries?
That would definitely be humiliating and a blow to national pride!
Therefore, the hearts of the millions of people in the Great Xia Dynasty were hanging in the air. They were nervous and waited for one last name to appear on the rankings in anticipation.
They prayed that the last spot would be someone from the Great Xia Dynasty.
“The glory of our Great Xia Dynasty will depend on this first place!”
“The number one better not be from Xi Liang!”
“Li Yu… Li Yu might become number one, right?”
“Yes, Li Yu! The first place on the Hidden Dragon Rankings isn’t on this ranking yet!”
“Indeed, he’s the most likely candidate. Please let it be Li Yu!”
Li Yu, you have to be up there! Murong Xingqiao prayed in her heart.
“It must be Li Yu!” Yi Caidie prayed as well.
It should be Li Yu! Otherwise, who else could suppress Ji Qinglan! Zhu Xiaotian thought.
Although he did not want Li Yu to top the rankings again, he did not want anyone from Xi Liang to do that either.
“Perhaps it’s only possible with Li Yu!” Perfected Yu Hua felt anxious too.
At this moment, countless people of the Grand Xia Dynasty were calling the same name in their hearts—Li Yu.
“The first place should be announced soon!”
“It’s here, it’s here. It must be Li Yu. It better be Li Yu!”
“Don’t disappoint us!”
Silence! Tension!
A dazzling golden light surfaced on the Heavenly Dao Rankings again.
Everyone held their breaths as they watched the golden light slowly reveal the information about number one.
The atmosphere was unprecedentedly heavy and oppressive.

“Li Yu! It’s really Li Yu!”
“Great, this is awesome. Haha, it’s really him!”
“God bless our Great Xia. The top spot remains ours!”
“This is great, this is great. The first place is really ours!”
“Way to go, Li Yu. You didn’t disappoint us after all!”
At this moment, countless people were seething with excitement.
The repressed feelings were instantly released.
It was as if they had just defeated a powerful enemy from the Xi Liang Dynasty, and the hero who led them to victory was Li Yu!
After the joyous surprise, everyone looked at the name of Li Yu’s physique.
Their gazes become strange.
What did Li Yu’s physique mean?
Human body?
Everyone was perplexed.
They knew the two words and what they meant.
However, they could not understand its meaning when it appeared on the 3000 Physique Rankings.
“Human body? Is that considered a special physique?”
“The Great Dao is simple. The simpler the name, the more powerful it might be!”
“This human body is not a normal human body! It must be an unprecedentedly powerful physique!”
“Perhaps it’s the body of the Human Sovereign, or short for the body of a saint!”
“It’s possible! It must have some meaning!”
“Since it’s ranked on top, it’s definitely not as simple as it looks!”
“That’s right. To be able to reach the top and suppress the Connate Sword Body, this human body must be an unknown powerful physique!”
“Of course. Look, Li Yu’s reward is a middle-grade immortal technique. That’s a grade higher than Ji Qinglan’s reward. This obviously shows that this physique is way superior to the Connate Sword Body!”
“And look, Li Yu has an additional reward!”
“Yeah, this additional reward is another baby divine bird!”
“Wow, the Heavenly Dao Rankings must have a nest of baby Chongming birds waiting to be sent out!”
Everyone in the Jade Pure Dao Sect got excited about the announcement for a while.
However, when they returned to their senses, they were also confused by Li Yu’s physique.
“Sect Master, do you know what physique Li Yu has?” Elder Taiwu asked curiously.
“I’m not too sure either, but not many people know about the three thousand physiques. What I know is only a drop in the bucket. I’ve never heard of Li Yu’s physique either!” Perfected Yu Hua shook his head slightly.
Then, he continued, “But judging from the rewards of the Heavenly Dao Rankings, Li Yu’s physique must be extraordinary! And it’s better than the second place’s Connate Sword Body!”
“Hmm, this child is indeed a Son of Heaven’s Mandate. He topped the Hidden Dragon Rankings and ranked top again in the Physique Rankings. Moreover, the Heavenly Dao Rankings have bestowed an additional reward for him. It’s truly unbelievable!” Perfected Taiwu exclaimed.
“Come to think of it, the rewards for the Heavenly Dao Rankings are pretty persistent. They actually gave him another baby Chongming bird!” Perfected Nihan stroked his icy beard.
“Aiya, will Li Yu eat the divine bird again?”
“It can’t be! Didn’t he eat it by mistake last time because he didn’t know that it was the reward from the Heavenly Dao Rankings?”
“Elder H… Um Elder Kong, bring someone to the Nine-tailed Mountain and instruct Li Yu not to eat the baby bird again! If he doesn’t want to raise it, our sect is willing to pay a heavy price to buy it!”

“Okay, okay, I’ll go right now!” Elder Kong hurriedly replied. He knew of the Chongming Bird’s importance. It was a divine beast, the guardian beast of the orthodox path!
