Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"Haha! Hahahahaha!"
A burst of triumphant laughter suddenly erupted from Gu Rong's mouth, breaking the Sect's tranquility.
With his hands on his hips, he almost floated with pride, winking triumphantly at Chen Xin beside him: "Old Sword Man, did you see that? Did you see it! I'm on the list! Your Grandpa Gu, I made the list! Ranked seventeenth!"
"Oh my, that's two places higher than the continent's number one Beast Spirit. I wonder if Yu Yuanzhen will be mad to death?"
"Hmph! Old bone! You're only seventeenth, what's there to be proud of? Is my Seven Kill Sword weaker than yours?"
Ning Fengzhi also smiled broadly as he looked at Gu Rong, sincerely saying, "Congratulations, Uncle Gu. Your appearance on the list is the supreme glory of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
Beside him, Chen Xin, whose face was usually an unchanging block of ice, rarely showed a faint smile.
"You just made the list a step earlier, what's there to be so proud of? A mere seventeenth place!"
Chen Xin felt happy for his old friend in his heart, but his words remained sharp.
"Heh, you Old Sword Man are just jealous!" Gu Rong didn't care at all. "If you're so capable, you go get on the list too! If you can rank ahead of me, I'll walk around you whenever I see you!"
Although Gu Rong knew that Chen Xin's ranking would definitely be above his, he still spoke stubbornly.
Just as the two of them were bickering, a golden pillar of light, even brighter than Yu Yuanzhen's before, descended from the sky, enveloping Gu Rong!
Vast energy poured into his body!
Gu Rong only felt his whole body tremble, and the bottleneck that had trapped him at the peak of ninety-fifth rank for many years shattered!
Ninety-sixth rank!
His spirit power level finally caught up with Sword DouluoChen Xin, who was beside him!
Not only that, the colors of the nine spirit rings beneath his feet also became even deeper.
What made him even more ecstatic was that he clearly felt his connection with the surrounding space becoming unprecedentedly close and clear!
It was as if with just a thought, he could easily tear space and Teleport!
Space element affinity, increased by ten percent!
"See, old bone? My cultivation is as strong as yours now! With my current defense, you might not actually be able to break through it!"
Gu Rong was very proud.
Don't underestimate this ten percent increase in space element affinity; with this extra ten percent, he could even apply this space element to defense!
He could even try using it for offense!
Chen Xin chuckled, "How about we try?"
Chen Xin was also eager to try. Although his cultivation hadn't improved these past few years because he hadn't broken through the sword array set by Lin Yuan,
his understanding of swordsmanship had undoubtedly advanced further.
His Seven Kill Sword had long been thirsty for battle.
Seeing that the two of them actually looked like they wanted to spar, Ning Fengzhi quickly said, "Uncle Sword, Uncle Gu, if you're going to compete, please wait until the heavenly screen rankings are fully announced."
"Hmph!"
Both of them snorted coldly.
Then Gu Rong suddenly thought of something, frowning as he said, "Fengzhi, Old Sword Man, what do you think? If I had chosen the spatial path back then, would I have become stronger than I am now? Just a mere one percent increase in spatial affinity, and I feel my strength has more than doubled!"
Chen Xin sneered, "Don't joke with me. You don't even think about how strong space-type Spirit Beasts are, and they are extremely rare."
"You're already very lucky to have one spirit ring for Spatial Transfer! If all your spirit rings had spatial attributes, let alone being a Titled Douluo now, your grave grass would probably be two meters high."
Lin Yuan: Not that low.
"Tsk, of course I know. I'm just lamenting. If all my spirit rings had spatial attributes, then..."
Gu Rong also started to fantasize.
After all, he knew what he was saying wasn't very realistic.
Canglan Academy.
"Wow! It's Grandpa Gu! Grandpa Gu made the list!"
The moment Ning Rongrong saw the list, she happily jumped up, her small face full of pride.
Even though it wasn't her on the list, she was very happy.
Both Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Gu doted on her greatly, and she loved both grandpas very much.
Of course, she also loved her father very much.
At the same time, the reactions of various forces across the continent were also different.
Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"Pfft—"
Yu Yuanzhen looked at the list, feeling a sweetness in his throat, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood.
Gu Rong's Bone Dragon ranking was actually higher than his?!
He had always believed that his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon firmly suppressed the Bone Dragon, but the ranking on the Heavenly Dao Golden List was like a merciless slap, harshly hitting his face!
Humiliation! Endless humiliation!
His Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was the continent's number one Beast Spirit!
And the Bone DragonSpirit was only the continent's number one defense-type Spirit. In terms of priority, his Blue Lightning Tyrant DragonSpirit should definitely be above it!
But reality gave him a slap.
Fortunately, the difference in rewards between nineteenth and seventeenth place wasn't very large.
This was Yu Yuanzhen's only consolation.
Before everyone could fully digest the information brought by Bone Douluo making the list, the golden light in the sky began to change once more!
"Again, again!"
"Who will it be this time? Could it be His Excellency Sword Douluo?"
"I guess it's someone from the Clear Sky Sect! The Clear Sky Hammer should make its appearance!"
Amidst countless speculations, everyone's eyes were fixed on the heavenly screen, their hearts in their throats.
A small number of people also fantasized about making the list themselves.
Finally, the new ranking was fixed before everyone's eyes!
"[Spirit Ranking, Sixteenth Place: Coiling Dragon RodSpirit]"
"[Holder: Qian Jun (Spirit Hall - Hall of Worship)]"
"[Evaluation: Top-tier attack systemTool Spirit. A rod that suppresses mountains and rivers, with dragons coiling around it. The ultimate of strength, one rod breaks all techniques! This Spirit is a perfect combination of power and solidity. Its holder possesses unwavering resolve, and their staff technique has reached mastery. Among those of the same rank, there are few rivals!]"
"[Reward: spirit power level increased by one rank, all spirit ring years increased by nine hundred years, inherited staff technique - Unyielding Staff Technique]"
The moment they saw this ranking, over ninety-nine percent of Spirit Masters on the continent were bewildered.
Coiling Dragon Rod? What kind of Spirit is that?
Qian Jun? Who is that? Never even heard of him!
However, when they saw the three words after the holder's name, the entire continent instantly erupted in a new wave of shock and awe!
"Spirit Hall!!"
"Finally... finally someone from Spirit Hall is on the list!" many Spirit Masters within Spirit Hall exclaimed.
"My heavens! Spirit Hall's foundation is too terrifying, isn't it? Just some unknown powerful individual can rank ahead of His Excellency Bone Douluo?"
"This Qian Jun... who exactly is he?!"
"Coiling Dragon Rod, what kind of Spirit is it that the heavenly screen evaluates it as the ultimate of strength? Shouldn't the ultimate of strength be the Clear Sky Hammer?"
Countless Spirit Masters, in their shock, instantly felt their reverence for Spirit Hall climb to a new height.
