Chapter 2521 Change in the Heaven Ranking
Heaven and Earth Academy.
On the last day of the battle for the seal, a large number of disciples of the academy gathered in the square of the inner sect. There were close to a hundred thousand disciples from the inner sect alone.
The elders of the academy even specially allowed outer sect disciples to head to the inner sect square to watch the real-time updates of the Heaven Ranking Prediction.
Coupled with some immortal servants of the academy and foreign cultivators, there were more than a hundred thousand cultivators gathered here and it could be said to be a sea of people.
The reason why there was such a huge commotion this time round was mainly because the number one of the inner sect, Su Zimo, was taking part in the battle for the seal.
Furthermore, there were huge fluctuations to Su Zimo"s ranking on the Heaven Ranking Prediction.
First, he was ranked in the top ten before vanis.h.i.+ng completely.
Immediately after, he returned to the Heaven Ranking Prediction but was ranked last.
What was even stranger was that although there were changes to the rankings of the Heaven Ranking Prediction during the past few days, Su Zimo"s ranking had always been at the bottom, completely motionless.
n.o.body knew what happened in the Asura battlefield to cause such a strange situation.
Today was the last day of the battle for the seal.
If nothing went wrong, the final outcome would appear on this day and there would also be a conclusion to the Heaven Ranking Prediction.
That was the reason why many disciples of the academy were gathered here.
Apart from Yan Bingying and the others, Tao Yao and Liu Ping ran over as well.
In fact, some legacy disciples even came to watch out of curiosity on the last day.
Yang Ruoxu and Princess Scarlet Rainbow stood side by side. Tao Yao and Liu Ping stood in front of them.
For the past few days, Princess Scarlet Rainbow was worried and did not leave.
Princess Scarlet Rainbow murmured softly, "No matter who the Spirit Cloud Seal eventually belongs to, I just hope that nothing happens to Senior Brother Su and Brother Qingcheng. Nothing matters as long as they"re fine."
"Don"t worry."
Yang Ruoxu said, "With Zimo around, no harm should happen to Xie Qingcheng."
Tao Yao was eating peaches leisurely at the side, chewing and swallowing slowly, as though he was not concerned about changes on the Heaven Ranking Prediction.
"Tao Tao, why aren"t you worried at all?"
Liu Ping asked, "Senior brother"s ranking has fallen to the bottom for more than 20 days without any changes."
"I think it"s alright."
Tao Yao said casually.
Compared to Liu Ping, Tao Yao knew Su Zimo better.
In the center of the square, more than a thousand foreign cultivators were gathered. They did not leave and were waiting for the final outcome.
For more than 20 days, Su Zimo"s ranking did not increase at all and that made them feel relieved!
Tian Zhe of Flying Immortal Sect smiled. "Fellow Daoist Yan, there"s quite a commotion in your academy with so many people gathered. Won"t you guys be utterly embarra.s.sed if Su Zimo ends up making a fool of himself?"
"True."
Ling Mu of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom said, "What if Su Zimo dies in the Asura Battlefield? Wouldn"t that mean we"ve been waiting for nothing?"
There were too many disciples of the academy in the surroundings and cultivators of other sects and factions did not dare to mock him too much.
Yan Bingying was unwilling to argue with them and merely looked at the Heaven Ranking Prediction in silence.
Suddenly!
Her eyes lit up!
The Heaven Ranking Prediction had changed!
Furthermore, the change…
Yan Bingying could not believe her eyes and closed them intentionally, looking over once more.
That was right!
Su Zimo"s ranking went from the bottom of the Heaven Ranking Prediction to Rank 7!
It was even a few spots higher than his previous Rank 10!
"Everyone, look!"
Yan Bingying was a little agitated as she pointed to the ranking of the Heaven Ranking Prediction and shouted.
At that moment, some cultivators noticed the changes in the Heaven Ranking Prediction as well.
The crowd exploded instantly!
"Rank 7 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction! He"s even higher than Fang Qingyun"s previous position by three spots!"
"Senior Brother Su is way too strong! I knew it!"
Many disciples of the academy were invigorated.
Yang Ruoxu and Princess Scarlet Rainbow exchanged glances and heaved a sigh of relief.
Tian Zhe, Ling Mu, Fairy Bai Hua and the other foreign cultivators had ugly expressions and could not believe it.
"Sorry to disappoint you guys."
Yan Bingying looked at Tian Zhe and the others and said indifferently.
Ling Mu chuckled dryly. "That"s nothing much, it might just be another mistake. After all, something like this happened more than 20 days ago."
"That"s right."
Fairy Bai Hua added, "We"ll talk about it after Su Zimo"s evaluation is out. There has to be a convincing reason why his ranking has increased so much."
Right then, the information of Su Zimo on the Heaven Ranking Prediction underwent slight changes.
In terms of cultivation realm, he had changed from a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal to a Grade 7 Heaven Immortal.
After waiting for a long time, the other information remained the same without any additions.
"That"s all?"
The foreign cultivators were dumbfounded.
Tian Zhe raised his brow. "His ranking was raised from the bottom to Rank 7 just because he advanced a single cultivation realm? That"s way too ridiculous!"
"That"s right! That evaluation of him won"t be able to convince the ma.s.ses!"
Fairy Bai Hua nodded.
"There"s naturally a reason for the rankings decided by the Perfected Immortals of Divine Firmament Palace."
"That"s right! If you"re indignant, go look for Divine Firmament Palace!"
In reality, many disciples of the academy felt guilty as well.
After all, Su Zimo"s achievements, information and evaluation were way too inferior compared to the other experts who were in the top ten of the Heaven Ranking Prediction—he did not have any advantage at all.
However, the disciples of the academy refused to show weakness verbally.
Just as everyone was arguing endlessly, the Heaven Ranking Prediction changed once more!
"Eh? There"s one less person in the top ten!"
"Rank 5 of the Heaven Ranking Prediction, the number one Heaven Execution Guard, Song Ce!"
Everyone quickly realized.
Song Ce"s ranking did not decrease, but he had completely vanished from the Heaven Ranking Prediction!
"How could this be?"
Ling Mu of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom panicked a little.
Logically speaking, there was only a single possibility—something serious had happened to Song Ce or he was severely injured.
Otherwise, it meant that he was dead!
"Could something have happened to Song Ce who was Rank 5 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction?"
"Zong Feiyu and Lie Xuan are probably the only ones who can defeat Song Ce."
Before everyone could recover from the shock of this matter, someone else from the top ten of the Heaven Ranking Prediction disappeared!
"Everyone, look! One more person is gone!"
"It"s Heaven Immortal Luo Yang, Rank 8 of the Heaven Ranking Prediction!"
Similar to Song Ce, Heaven Immortal Luo Yang"s situation was the same—he had vanished from the Heaven Ranking Prediction completely!
"Heavens, isn"t this battle for the seal way too tragic?"
"Paragons who were on the top ten of the Heaven Ranking Prediction were defeated consecutively and removed from the Heaven Ranking Prediction!"
In the following period of time, a few more cultivators on the Heaven Ranking Prediction disappeared completely.
Countless cultivators were focused on the Heaven Ranking Prediction, wanting to see the final outcome.
Before long.
Rank 7 of the Heaven Ranking Prediction, Yue Hai of Mountain Sea Immortal Sect, vanished from the ranking!
The entire Heaven Ranking Prediction was in complete chaos.
Everyone discussed softly and guessed the many possibilities of the Asura battlefield.
A while later.
The Heaven Ranking Prediction changed once more!
This time round, no one disappeared.
Su Zimo"s ranking rose yet again and he was now Rank 3 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction!
