1672 No. 99,999! The Record Is Broken!

One is out! Miao Taos eyes lit up.

Although the sky had grown dark, she had not left yet, and neither had the others. In fact, more people seemed to have gathered around.

After some senior students came out, they met Miao Tao and the others. They noticed that they were observing two new students so they decided to stay as well.

The senior students always paid close attention to the new students because there was a possibility of exceptional geniuses emerging in every new cohort.

These geniuses were bound to rise rapidly and become prominent figures within the academy in a short period.

Such talents were worth befriending or drawing to their side.

Thus, it was best to seize the opportunity to interact with them before they fully mature.

Of course, being geniuses themselves, they wouldnt be overly eager to make connections. They were just doing it out of interest in equal and meaningful exchanges.

Its that lady.

As Yue Qiqiao got closer to the edge of the Sword Storm Plain, many people saw her face. They were surprised.

Yue Qiqiao was definitely a G.o.ddess. Many male martial warriors were stunned by her beauty.

Especially with the moonlight illuminating the rain curtain behind her, making her appear like a fairy under the moonlight.

So beautiful!

Some people couldnt help but mutter.

Pathetic! Miao Tao couldnt help rolling her eyes. These people were supposed to be experienced seniors who had seen their fair share of beauties on the universe G.o.ddess rank. Yet, they were captivated by a new student.

You are jealous. The young man laughed.

Me? Jealous? Miao Tao flared up like a cat. She glared furiously at the young man not far away.

She wasnt ugly by any means but compared to Yue Qiqiao, she fell slightly short. However, there was no way she would willingly admit to being inferior to someone else.

Women were always stubborn in this area.

Everyone loves beauties. Why are you mocking us when we see beauties? Isnt that jealousy? Someone teased her.

I despise you all! Miao Tao retorted with a scornful look.

At this moment, Yue Qiqiao walked out. Her expression turned strange when she heard their conversation.

However, deep inside, she was more curious than anything else.

Why are there so many people here?

Why arent they going back even though its late at night? Are all the students of the stellar academy this diligent?

Sister, can you come over for a chat? Miao Tao waved at Yue Qiqiao.

Sister? Yue Qiqiao frowned at the odd t.i.tle. Nevertheless, she didnt want to be confrontational, and since the other party didnt seem like they were looking for trouble, she decided to approach them. She asked, What can I do for you, senior sister?

Nothing. We just want to ask for your name to see your ranking, Miao Tao smiled and replied.

My name is Yue Qiqiao. Yue Qiqiao nodded.

Yue Qiqiao. What a good name. You are as beautiful as your name, Miao Tao praised.

Youre flattering me. Youre beautiful too. Yue Qiqiao felt a little awkward. This senior sister was a little too enthusiastic. However, she reminded herself that they were strangers, and perhaps this was just her character.

Junior Sister Yue, where did you come from? A young man asked.

Im from the Liuguang Territorial Domain, the Great Qian Empire, Yue Qiqiao replied.

The Great Qian Empire is indeed a powerful faction. No wonder they were able to groom such an outstanding talent like Junior Sister Yue, the young man smiled and said.

Youre flattering me, Yue Qiqiao said.

Come, lets take a look and see how high Junior Sister Yues ranking is, Miao Tao said excitedly.

Everyone gathered around the stone tablet, searching for Yue Qiqiaos name.

There were too many names on the stone plate. If they didnt know Yue Qiqiaos name, they wouldnt be able to find her ranking.

Fortunately, they could roughly estimate the ranking, narrowing down the search range. With so many martial artists looking for the same person, it wouldnt take long to find them. Whats more, martial warriors could read ten lines at once.

127,600!

Everyone was taken aback. Their gazes landed on Yue Qiqiao.

This stunning woman possessed such extraordinary talent!

She just entered the stellar academy but had already left her mark on the stone table. This was extremely rare.

What they didnt know was that Yue Qiqiaos domain was a combination of the water and spiritual domain. Thus, her potential exceeded that of a normal domain.

That was why she was able to get on the rankings.

Junior Sister Yue, youre amazing! Miao Tao sized up Yue Qiqiao in astonishment.

Its nothing, I still have a long way to go, Yue Qiqiao replied, though she was also a bit surprised.

Youre too modest. Miao Tao said, You managed to squeeze into the top 120,000 the moment you entered the academy. You have already exceeded 80% of the freshmen.

Im not being modest. Yue Qiqiao shook her head and continued, My ranking is quite low among the top 10 in the League Of Talents of the Great Qian Empire.

Really? Miao Tao and the others were shocked.

Of course. I dont have to lie to you about this, Yue Qiqiao replied.

It looks like the quality of the talents in your League Of Talents is very high, Miao Tao said.

I remember there was a top-notch genius who made it to the Star Rankings, and he came from your Great Qian Empire. What was his name again? someone nearby suddenly said.

I dont know his name but I remember hes a talent from the Great Qian Empire. Miao Tao shook her head. She looked at Yue Qiqiao and asked, Do you know him?

Thats him! Yue Qiqiao smiled and pointed at the figure in the rain.

What! Miao Tao and the others stared into the rain curtain in astonishment.

The real person was right in front of them but they just didnt recognize him.

Hes the unparallelled talent who got onto the Star Rankings? Miao Tao widened her eyes in disbelief.

She still vividly remembered the appearance of that young man from before. He was very gentle and handsome, which was why she couldnt help but remind him.

The other party even nodded and smiled at her politely. She couldnt any signs of the arrogance and conceit that one would expect from a top-tier talent.

Thats right. You dont know? I thought you reminded him because you know who he was. Yue Qiqiao suddenly found Miao Taos expression a little fun. She couldnt help but tease her.

Erm how would I know that it would be such a coincidence? Miao Tao was speechless.

The others exchanged glances with one another. It felt a little unreal, but they were a little envious of Miao Tao. Just because she had offered a simple reminder, who knew, she might have formed a good connection with that exceptional talent.

If it was an ordinary genius, they wouldnt react this way. But w.a.n.g Teng was a top talent who made it onto the Star Rankings.

What kind of presence was that?

To put it bluntly, the Seven Judges from the academys arbitration a.s.sociation were the talents who got onto the Star Rankings!

w.a.n.g Teng had this potential.

Indeed, regardless of whether he could ultimately reach such heights, he already surpa.s.sed the average genius by far. This wasnt something to be underestimated.

Everyone had different thoughts going through their minds. All eyes were focused on the figure within the rain curtain.

Time flies.

A silent night.

In the sky, the stars rose gradually, and their radiance illuminated the continent.

Just as the first rays of dawn fell upon the earth, in the distance within the rain curtain, a five-colored sword light flashed and disappeared, blending into the rain curtain silently and without a trace.

The rain in that area seemed to have undergone an unbelievable change.

But, outsiders wouldnt be able to sense it.

The figure sitting cross-legged on the ground stood up and ended his night of enlightenment. He walked towards the edge of the Sword Storm Plain without any hesitation.

I think I sense five different sword domains, someone said after some hesitation.

It felt like a single sword domain, Miao Tao frowned and said.

Everyone was bewildered and uncertain. They had all seen that sword light just now. Though it was unclear through the rain curtain, they could still sense something extraordinary about it. It was not an ordinary sword enlightenment.

Yue Qiqiao turned serious too. She looked at w.a.n.g Teng with mixed emotions.

The sword aura just now was unique. What was it?

At this moment, everyones wrist.w.a.tches vibrated slightly. They received an announcement.

Everyone was stunned. Then, they realized something and all looked at their wrist.w.a.tches in shock.

Congratulations to freshman w.a.n.g Teng for entering the Sword Storm Ranking for the first time and entering the top 100,000. His rank is 99,999 and will be rewarded with 30,000 points!

When everyone saw this announcement, they were all shocked beyond measure, and waves of astonishment surged in their hearts.

They even suspected that they were mistaken.

99999th place!

Indeed, this was the ranking.

Many people looked at it repeatedly and finally confirmed that they were not mistaken.

The difference was just one place but he did manage to squeeze into the top 100,000!

A difference of one rank was like the difference between heaven and earth. It was difficult to surpa.s.s.

Even the previous batches of strongest new students who had excelled in swordsmans.h.i.+p could only reach around the 100,000th position, unable to break into the top 100,000. This ill.u.s.trated just how difficult it was to reach the top 100,000.

However, w.a.n.g Teng managed to squeeze into the top 100,000 as a freshman. This was unbelievable.

At the same time, many people in the academy received this announcement too.

There were many rankings in the academy. Once there was a huge change in these rankings, the academys network would get informed instantly and make an announcement so that all the students and instructors would know immediately.

Whats more, this announcement was made on the public platform of the Seven Stellar Academies, not the Seventh Stellar Academys internal web.

This was an incentive mechanism!

w.a.n.g Teng set a new record for the Sword Storm Ranking but squeezing into the top 100,000 on his first attempt.

In a certain part of the academy, Sari, who was on a mission, was astounded when he saw this announcement.

No. 99,999 on the Sword Storm Ranking!

This junior brother is unpredictable. He caused such a huge commotion the moment he came to the academy. It looks like I underestimated him.

Zhulong Shan was walking out of the academys arbitration a.s.sociation when he saw this announcement. He frowned and his expression turned grim.

He was locked up for the entire night to study the rules of the academy in the arbitration a.s.sociation.

On the other hand, w.a.n.g Teng broke a ranking record.

This contrast made him uncomfortable. He felt exasperated.

In the academys arbitration a.s.sociation, Senior Wu De, who brought Zhulong Shan away, was sitting on a chair with one leg crossed over the other, savoring a gla.s.s of wine. He glanced at his wrist.w.a.tch and was astounded. Good riddance, he sent Zhulong Shan to the academy arbitration a.s.sociation yesterday and broke the record for the Sword Storm Ranking today. w.a.n.g Teng is quite impressive.

It was worth meeting him personally.

It looks like hes not just an interesting person but also a great talent. He earned his t.i.tle.

Top 100,000 in the Sword Storm Ranking? This isnt something an ordinary talent can do. I think those sword talents wont be able to sit still anymore.

Will the seven of them take notice of this baby dragon?

Interesting! Interesting! This is so interesting! Hahaha

Laughter echoed in the room, and the pa.s.sing students from the academy arbitration council couldnt help but look towards the door in surprise.

Whats wrong with Wu De?

On the other side, in a cosmos-level manor, a pet.i.te young lady with short silver-white hair wrinkled her nose and snorted. Hmph, this fellow is in the limelight again. I cant lose to him.

Unfortunately, Im at the First Stellar Academy and hes at the Seventh Stellar Academy. I cant find him for now.

I wonder what hes thinking. Why did he go to the Seventh Stellar Academy?

Nevermind, Ill ignore him. He brought this upon himself. Ill catch up with him sooner or later. At that time, I must win him.

Besides these people, the ones who knew w.a.n.g Teng personally, such as Yu Yuanrui, Ji Haochen, Timothy, and many others saw the announcement too. They were shocked and in disbelief. They felt complicated.

Many seniors in the academy looked in the direction of the Sword Storm Plain. Some of them had already rushed over.
