Heavenly Dao Rankings: I Am Exposed As The Sword God

Panda Novel

“The Qingyun Sect isn’t looking too good this time. Although Li Yu did kill Mo Lin, there’s a world of difference between a Profound Void Martial Stage and a Soul Formation Stage expert!”

“Yes, the Profound Void Martial Stage. The previous strongest in our Great Xia Dynasty, Perfected Yu Hua, is only at the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage. The Profound Void Martial Stage would be invincible in our Great Xia Dynasty!”

“I heard from my master that the higher the cultivation realm, the greater the difference in strength between each major realm! A Foundation Establishment realm cultivator can defeat a Golden Core realm cultivator, but it’s entirely impossible for a Soul Formation stage cultivator to defeat a Profound Void Martial Stage cultivator!”

“Of course. Which one of those who could enter the Profound Void Martial Stage isn’t a monstrous genius? Which one isn’t supported by various top-notch magic treasures and cultivation techniques! Defeating your opponent of a higher cultivation level is impossible!”

“Sigh, who would have thought that Mo Lin had such a backing! I hope that the Qingyun Sect can resolve the danger!” People from the various large sects conversed.

Everyone was slightly worried for Li Yu.

The Great Xia Dynasty would lose its backing if Li Yu was really killed by the Crimson Dragon King.

Looking at the greater demons on the Divine Weapon Rankings, they could not help but shudder.

There was the Demonic Ape of the Kui Mountain, the Black Sea Mystic Flood Dragon, and the Blood Spirit Monarch that no one had heard of who obtained the Immortal-tier Blood Shadow Demon Art as a reward.

Right at this moment, a dragon’s roar resounded through the sky, scaring everyone to the point their hearts trembled.

Everyone looked over in horror and saw a gigantic flood dragon flying over from the sky.

Its undulating body was like a continuous chain of mountains, surrounded by purple lightning as if it was riding thunder.

Upon seeing this, everyone’s hearts sank to the bottom as a chill arose uncontrollably.

“Crim… Crimson Dragon King is here!” The Five Elements Sect disciple who had delivered the news earlier screamed in horror.

He was the only person here who had seen the Crimson Dragon King with his own eyes, so he naturally recognized that purple lightning flood dragon.

His words instantly reduced the atmosphere in the square to a freezing point, and everyone felt as if they had entered an icy cave.

Since the Crimson Dragon King had arrived, it meant that Li Yu had been killed.

Moreover, did he come here to eradicate the people of the Qingyun Sect?

As everyone was panicking, the purple lightning flood dragon had already arrived in the sky above the Dao Seeking Square.

The gigantic figure enveloped the entire square. Its enormous body was like a great mountain range that pressed down on everyone’s hearts.

At the same time, a figure jumped down from the dragon’s head and landed steadily on the ground.

Everyone looked over in unison. Like a drowning person who had been pulled onto the shore, they finally caught their breaths as joy from surviving the calamity rushed into their hearts.

“It’s Li Yu!”

“Oh! It’s him!”

Everyone in the square was abuzz. Li Yu had returned by riding on the purple lightning dragon.

This meant that the Crimson Dragon King had been killed by Li Yu.

Li Yu killing an old monster at the Profound Void Martial Stage had simply refreshed their understanding of Li Yu again.

Is this Li Yu even human? That’s way too strong!

However, everyone thought about it and understood one thing. Perhaps the Qingyun Sect Master was stronger than Li Yu.

It was the Qingyun Sect Master who did it.

Regardless of who it was, the death of the Crimson Dragon King had boosted their morale.

It also allowed them to relax again.

With the Qingyun Sect around, the Great Xia Dynasty would be as stable as a rock.

Furthermore, one of the mighty Kings from the Netherworld Cult of the Great Zenith Domain had actually been killed by the sect of the Great Xia Dynasty.

It was enough for them to brag for their entire lifetimes.

They could brag how the cow could fly higher and further in the sky, out of the country, and out of the Huaxia continent.

…

Seeing Li Yu walk over, Ye Qiu laughed happily, “Senior Brother, you’re back. This is great. I was so worried for you!”

The group of young men and women around opened a path for Li Yu, and they looked at him with worshipful gazes.

Li Yu smiled and asked, “How many disciples have registered by now?”

“1716!” Ye Qiu replied with a big smile.

“So many!” Li Yu was pleasantly surprised. He took the registration booklet, and the system interface immediately popped up. It automatically recorded the disciples’ information into the system.

At the same time, the system automatically generated the talent score and potential assessment of each disciple.

The information was crystal clear.

This saved him a lot of trouble. He could recruit the best according to his needs.

After all, the system only needed to recruit 1000 disciples for now, and the Qingyun Sect could not accommodate too many disciples at the moment.

There was no need for him to recruit over one thousand people. Furthermore, there were still more people queuing up for registration.

Li Yu looked. Currently, there were more than 1700 people, and fewer than 600 people had reached the passing line.

Among them, only around a hundred people had better talent.

To Li Yu’s surprise, two of these hundred people satisfied the system’s requirements for genius disciples.

After including Ye Qiu, Ji Qinglan, Su Mu, and Tang Chi, who had finished consuming the Heavenly Spirit Pill, he would now have six genius disciples.

It was only a matter of time before he completed this mission.

Moreover, there were so many more people waiting to register at the scene, and there were probably more geniuses who had not been discovered.

At this moment, Elder Cangshan, Elder Qingxuan, and the others from the various large sects gathered over like spectators.

“Cultivator Li, it’s great to see you back. Has the Crimson Dragon King been dealt with?” Elder Cang Shan asked with a grin.

“That’s right!” Li Yu replied casually while his thoughts were focused on the system interface.

He was in no mood to chat.

“Could Cultivator Li explain in detail to us?” Everyone looked at Li Yu with burning anticipation, hoping that he could describe the grand occasion for them.

The battle between Profound Void Martial Stage experts would surely be spectacular.

They could already imagine all kinds of shocking fight scenes from it, and their blood began to boil.

However, Li Yu’s reply was like a basin of cold water that doused their blood.

“The process was boring. There’s really nothing much to describe!” Li Yu added with a bitter smile.

It’s just one slash. What else do you want me to say?

Plus, can’t you see that I’m super busy right now? There are so many disciples waiting for me. How can I have the time to tell stories?

Li Yu complained inside.

“Oh yes, I’m not good with words, but Perfected Yu Hua was present. If you want to learn about the situation at that time, you can ask Perfected Yu Hua!” Li Yu just wanted to send these fellows away as soon as possible.

It’s true that once you’ve become famous, your personal life is gone. You people even have to pry into private matters like someone else’s revenge.

Everyone looked disappointed, but they understood that Li Yu liked to keep a low profile and not show off.

Therefore, they did not probe further. At least they could ask Perfected Yu Hua on the matter in the future.

At that moment, a group of royal guards escorted the Crown Prince and a eunuch to the Qingyun Sect’s recruitment station.

“The imperial decree has arrived! All unrelated people shall make way immediately!” someone announced.

A commotion broke out as everyone opened up a path.

The crown prince and the eunuch arrived in front of Li Yu. The eunuch declared with a solemn expression, “The imperial decree has arrived. Cultivator Li Yu, please accept the imperial decree!”
