Chapter 48
Chapter 48.
“It’s already pretty good.”
When Mingyue Lan arrived in front of Mingyue Shu, Mingyue Shu patted her sister’s shoulder and comforted her.
“That person must be Mingyue Shu.”
“She came.”
“I am looking forward to Mingyue Shu’s performance, it’s said that her talent is greater than her ancestor, Mingyue Xue of the Bright Moon family!”
“Perhaps today, we will be able to witness history.”
“The highest record in the Southern Continent is maintained by the ancestors of the Bright Moon family. Today, I wonder if Mingyue Shu can break this record.”
Looking at the towering Divine Refining Tower, especially when Mingyue Lan’s results appeared, Lin Zhiyin seemed even more eager to give it a try.
She wanted to know what level she could reach with her current self?
If it was the previous Lin Zhiyin, she might not have had too much hope.
But now, she had already comprehended the embryonic form of Sword Intent, and her combat strength had skyrocketed by an unknown amount. It might be a bit difficult for her to enter the main rankings, but it might be possible for her to compete for the secondary rankings.
“Look, Chen Feng from the Royal Academy of Heavenly Wind has come out.”
Lv Ying suddenly said.
Previously, they had paid too much attention to Feng Qingming and Mingyue Lan, so much so that they almost forgot about Chen Feng as a genius.
This was something that could not be helped. Although Chen Feng had some talent, compared to Feng Qingming and even Mingyue Lan, he was much weaker.
Therefore, even if he came out, not many people paid attention to him at this moment. Even if he had ascended the secondary rankings, and his ranking on the secondary rankings wasn’t bad.
“The thirty-seventh floor, the thirty-first of the Secondary rankings. This result is pretty good.”
Indeed.
The current Secondary Rankings was different from an hour ago.
The current Secondary Rankings were of great quality.
More than half of the people present had already entered the Divine Refining Tower.
Chen Feng, who had walked out of the Divine Refining Tower, was extremely satisfied with his results. When he saw that he was ranked thirty-first on the Secondary Rankings, he was even more complacent. When he walked towards Xuan Yi’s group, his expression carried a hint of arrogance.
It was as if he was speaking.
This time around, I’m finally qualified to meet you, right?
However, it had to be said.
He was ranked thirty-first. This result was indeed enough to be arrogant.
After all, the people present were not only from the Heavenly Wind Kingdom but from the other Nine Hanging Rivers Kingdoms as well.
Being able to rank in the top fifty among so many geniuses was already an amazing thing.
However, what disappointed Chen Feng was.
Lin Zhiyin’s attention didn’t seem to be on him. Ever since he stepped out of the Divine Refining Tower, her gaze had never shifted to him.
This inevitably caused Chen Feng to feel a little irritated and even a little angry.
This woman was a bit too ignorant.
He was a dignified core disciple of the Imperial Sky Wind Academy, was he not even qualified to be recognized by her?
“Since you want to go, then go.”
Seeing Lin Zhiyin somewhat eager to give it a try, Xuan Yi laughed.
“Yes!”
After receiving Xuan Yi’s agreement, Lin Zhiyin took a deep breath and entered the Divine Refining Tower.
“I’d like to see how talented you are. How many levels can you climb.” Chen Feng’s expression was ugly, and he was extremely displeased.
However, this feeling of displeasure in Chen Feng’s heart was quickly replaced by shock.
The reason for that was because the moment that Lin Zhiyin had entered the Divine Refining Tower her name immediately appeared on the list!
Moreover, it was currently rising at an extremely shocking speed. This speed was even more exaggerated than Mingyue Lan’s!
This was not out of Xuan Yi’s scope.
It wasn’t that Lin Zhiyin was even more terrifying than Mingyue Lan.
It was because Lin Zhiyin was a sword cultivator.
Sword cultivators were known for their powerful attacks.
Lin Zhiyin wasn’t an ordinary sword cultivator. She was a sword cultivator who had comprehended the embryonic form of sword intent. Her speed of climbing the tower was extremely normal.
“She’s so fast. She’s even faster than that monster from the Bright Moon family.”
“Who is this woman? Lin Zhiyin I’ve never heard of it before?”
“What sect is the Profound Sword Sect? Does the Heavenly Wind Kingdom have such a sect?”
“Are you ignorant? The Heavenly Wind Kingdom has such a sect. It’s just that this sect isn’t the largest. It’s just a second-rate sect in the Zhennan province. Its sectmaster is only at the peak of the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm.”
“Tsk tsk, how could such a small sect be able to nurture such a genius? I’m afraid she going to charge into the top ten of the Secondary Rankings!”
“She’s a genius. At that time, let’s see if we can rope her into the Devil Subduing Sect. It would be a bit of a waste to stay in a small place like the Zhennan Province.”
The crowd began to discuss spiritedly. This was the first time that the Profound Sword Sect’s name had entered the public domain.
Xuan Yi’s group was not far away, Chen Feng’s face turned red.
The reason for that was because, at this moment, Lin Zhiyin’s ranking on the Secondary Rankings had already surpassed his. She had reached the twenty-first place and was still rising.
He didn’t continue to stay there and left dejectedly.
Earlier, he had thought that Lin Zhiyin was merely a woman from a small sect. After showing a bit of talent, it would be easy to woo her.
Now it seemed......
He ignored Chen Feng who had left. Or perhaps, from the beginning, Xuan Yi had never taken him to heart.
Xuan Yi stared at the Divine Refining Tower.
Even though he didn’t have a high opinion of Lin Zhiyin and believed that she wouldn’t be able to enter the main rankings, Xuan Yi still hoped that Lin Zhiyin would give him a pleasant surprise.
After all, Lin Zhiyin’s comprehension of the Sword Dao exceeded Xuan Yi’s expectations.
This woman was a good seedling of the sword. Although her talent might not be as good as Gui Yiyi, if she could walk further along the path of the Sword Dao, her future accomplishments might not be inferior to Gui Yiyi.
Forty levels!
At this moment, Lin Zhiyin had already reached third place on the Secondary Rankings.
Everyone held their breaths.
This Lin Zhiyin had shocked them quite a bit ever since they ascended the tower.
She had originally thought that the top ten were her limits.
But now, she had already reached third place!
Second only to Feng Qingming!
Who was Feng Qingming?
The top three Chosen of the previous generation of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom.
It was not strange that he could ascend beyond the 40th floor.
But Lin Zhiyin.
Nobody had ever heard of her.
However, it was this person, that they had never even heard of before, who had ascended to the 40th floor!
“She’s charging up!”
“41st level!”
“Hiss ......”
Feng Qingming was also speechless.
At this moment, his ranking on the Secondary Rankings had already fallen to third place.
Under the pressure of the Mingyue Lan, he could accept it. After all, the other party was from a great power and a Chosen on the Azure Ranking. He admitted that he was inferior to the other party.
But this Lin Zhiyin?
Where did she come from?
“Not done yet!”
“Forty-two levels!”
“Forty-three levels!”
“Forty-four!”
“Forty-five!”
“It’s equal to the Emperor’s record back then.”
“It should be at her limit.” Xuan Yi muttered to himself.
Forty-eight!
Forty-nine!
Fifty!
“The 50th floor!!”
Under the Divine Refining Tower, it was boiling.
This was something even the Heavenly Wind Sovereign King could not do!
This was done by a nobody who had never been heard of before?
Lin Zhiyin?
Who was she?
When Mingyue Lan had ascended to the 50th floor, everyone might have been shocked, but they also felt that it was natural.
After all, she was a demon-level genius from one of the Azure Region’s top powers.
Although it was shocking, it seemed to be within reason.
But who was Lin Zhiyin?
What kind of power was the Profound Sword Sect behind her?
