Wen Yan!

Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes as it flashed coldly after he heard Liu Yun’s words. Although it was his first time hearing this name, he already hated this person very much! It was all because of this woman that his wife and daughter were imprisoned in the Saint Land Enforcement Hall!

‘It seems like I’ve misunderstood her.’ At this moment, Duan Ling Tian realized he had misunderstood Gan Ru Yan, Ke’er’s elder sister.

However, the flame of fury in his heart did not subside at all. It merely changed its target from Gan Ru Yan to Wen Yan.

“Senior Brother Liu Yun, what kind of person is Wen Yan?” Duan Ling Tian could not help but ask after he took a deep breath to suppress the fury he felt in his heart.

“Wen Yan is also a true disciple of our Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect. She’s ranked 9th on the True Ranking. She’s also the only female disciple ranked in the top ten of the True Ranking apart from Senior Sister Ru Yan. However, despite being strong and having a high innate talent, she’s known for her bad att.i.tude,” Liu Yun said disdainfully, “Put everything else aside, what she did was extremely shameless in regards to the matter about the Saint Girl. Due to the reason she’s always competing with Senior Sister Ru Yan who’s stronger than her, she would come up with all sorts of tricks just to cause trouble for Senior Sister Ru Yan. The matter regarding the Saint Girl was a good opportunity for her to cause trouble. Senior Sister Ru Yan’s crime is so severe that even Guardian Qing Huo doesn’t have any response for the time being. Perhaps, everyone’s just waiting for the Sect Leader to come out of his closed-door cultivation before they make a decision.” Liu Yun sighed when he reached the end of his sentence.

‘Wen Yan… I’ll remember you.’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed coldly when he thought about Wen Yan.

“Senior Brother Liu Yun, you said earlier that Senior Sister Ru Yan is ranked 7th on the True base?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“Similar to me, Senior Sister Ru Yan is a true disciple at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage,” Liu Yun replied.

“She’s only at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? You’re also at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Isn’t the gap between both of you too big? She’s ranked 7th while you’re ranked 27th on the True Ranking, Senior Brother Liu Yun.” Duan Ling Tian was stunned.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian, you’re unaware of this… Among the 100 true disciples ranked on the True Ranking, apart from those in the top three and those ranked in the bottom 30, all the true disciples’ cultivation base is at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!” Liu Yun said, “Although we’re all at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the gap between our strength is pretty ridiculous. Currently, in the Dao Martial Saint Land, apart from those at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, those who’re ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking are all elite powerhouses at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! Among the true disciples in our Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, only seven people are ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking. The person who’s ranked 8th behind Senior Sister Ru Yan isn’t even strong enough to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking. Due to the reason Senior Sister Ru Yan is a female cultivator, Wen Yan is jealous of Senior Sister Ru Yan, and she’s always looking for trouble with Senior Sister Ru Yan. If something happens to Senior Sister Ru Yan, she would be able to replace Senior Sister Ru Yan and become the Big Sister among all the true disciples!” Liu Yun said in one breath, explaining the significance of the Supreme Saint Ranking.

‘Ke’er’s sister is widely acknowledged by the true disciples as Big Sister?’

Duan Ling Tian also learned that many powerhouses at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage occupied half the places on the Supreme Saint Ranking!

In the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, Bronze Flame Elders were usually at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage while Silver Flame Elders were usually at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

The Golden Flame Elders were at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

The two Vice Sect Leaders were at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

As for the powerful Sect Leader of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect and the three great Guardians, they were at the Seventh Form or higher of the Saint Celestial Stage. When one reached that stage, one’s lifespan could be compared to the universe.

In the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, the number of powerhouses at the Saint Celestial Stage was greatly different at every stage. There were so many powerhouses at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage that they could be compared to a school of silver carps. Those who were at this stage were not eligible to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking.

As for those at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, although there were not as many of them compared to those at the First Form, there were many of them as well.

Naturally, it was difficult for them to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking with their cultivation base at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Usually, only one in ten powerhouses at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was qualified enough to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking.

Based on this, one could see how outstanding the powerhouses at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who were qualified to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking were compared to ordinary powerhouses at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

Ke’er’s sister, Gan Ru Yan, was this kind of outstanding person.

Further up, the number of those who were at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was a lot less. Although the number was a lot less, it was, naturally, not as little as the number of people at the Fourth Form or above of the Saint Celestial Stage.

This could be seen from the rankings on the Supreme Saint Rankings.

Those who were at the Second Form or above of the Saint Celestial Stage could be considered quite special as well in the Dao Martial Saint Land. They were like the backbones of the three great sects.

In the Dao Martial Saint Land, apart from the three great sects, only the dragon clan and the phoenix clan were superior to the first-rate forces who had Guardians at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

The number of people at the Seventh Form or above of the Saint Celestial Stage in the current dragon clan was not as many compared to the three great sects.

As for the phoenix clan, since they were very mysterious, no one knew how many powerhouses at the Seventh Form or above of the Saint Celestial Stage they had. However, as a clan that was as ancient as the dragon clan, the strength of the phoenix clan was not inferior to the dragon clan.

These two clans were also clans that the three great sects did not dare to easily offend. This was because they had powerhouses at the Seventh Form or above of the Saint Celestial Stage guarding them.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian, put everything else aside, just the last technique you used to kill Yang Wen is enough for you to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking!” Liu Yun said suddenly as though he had just recalled something, “The three Palace Of Death’s Bronze Flame Elders and I couldn’t catch a trace of your sword at all. I think only those elite powerhouses at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage might be able to catch a trace of your sword, and powerhouses at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage could capture the movement of your sword!” Liu Yun praised Duan Ling Tian. “For this reason, I think it’s impossible to find someone at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who’s a match for you. Even if there’s one, it would be very difficult to find.”

“I merely relied on the a.s.sist-type Divine Ability to cast that sword technique. For this reason, I feel that last sword was just a pure stroke of luck.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian, you’re too humble. Strictly speaking, the a.s.sist-type Divine Ability is part of your strength as well!” Liu Yun shook his head with a smile. “Junior Brother Ling Tian, do you believe the battle between you and Yang Wen is enough to get you ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking? Moreover, your ranking wouldn’t be low.”

“It can’t be, right?” Duan Ling Tian was dumbfounded. He did not expect he would be qualified to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking as well.

“It really isn’t absurd. You really possess that kind of strength. When the time your ranking on the Supreme Saint Ranking is revealed, the True Ranking in the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect will probably change as well. If I’m not mistaken, you’ll be able to rank in the top five on the True Ranking!!” Liu Yun continued to say.

The top five on the True Ranking?

Duan Ling Tian was dumbfounded when he heard this. However, inwardly, he did not think so. When the time arrived, the truth would be revealed.

“Senior Brother Liu Yun, since the Saint Girl of our Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect is Senior Sister Ru Yan’s twin sister and Senior Sister Ru Yan has an indigo Innate Spiritual Root, why is she not qualified to become the Saint Girl? Then does this mean the Saint Girl’s innate talent is not inferior to Senior Sister Ru Yan?” Duan Ling Tian thought of Ke’er’s innate talent.

Ke’er’s innate talent could be considered outstanding on Cloud Continent. However, that was because she had drunk the 10,000 Year Stalact.i.te Milk.

However, even after drinking the 10,000 Year Stalact.i.te Milk, Ke’er’s innate talent could only be considered as ordinary in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

With her innate talent, why was she selected to become the Saint Girl?

Duan Ling Tian could not figure out this matter no matter how much he thought about it. He was even more confused when he learned Ke’er’s twin sister, Gan Ru Yan, possessed an indigo Innate Spiritual Root.

“Based on what I know, Senior Sister Ru Yan wasn’t selected to become the Saint Girl of our Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect because her innate talent isn’t as good as her twin sister…” Liu Yun instantly responded to Duan Ling Tian’s question, “From what I heard, Senior Sister Ru Yan’s twin sister, the Saint Girl, was discovered to possess a violet Innate Spiritual Root when she was a baby!” Liu Yun’s expression was solemn when he spoke.

A violet Innate Spiritual Root!

It was as though a bolt of lightning had struck Duan Ling Tian when he heard Liu Yun’s words.

Ke’er possessed a violet Innate Spiritual Root?

‘How’s it possible?!’ Duan Ling Tian found it hard to believe. If Ke’er possessed a violet Innate Spiritual Root, why was her cultivation speed so slow?

Duan Ling Tian continued to ask, “Senior Brother Liu Yun, as far as I know, the Saint Girl is very weak. She hasn’t even entered the Divine Saint Stage yet. What’s going on? Doesn’t she possess a violet Innate Spiritual Root?”
