"That's naturally the best."
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Ye Chenfeng couldn't help but flash of admiration in his eyes.
At the same time, I feel that it is no fluke that Duan Lingtian has such strength at this age.
Normally, the geniuses are arrogant and feel that fighting with those who are weaker than him will not be of any help to him, nor will they admit that it can help them.
But Duan Lingtian didn't think so.
Not only did he not think so, but he also openly said in front of them that he might be able to see some inspiration in those who were not as good as him.
Being strong does not actually mean being strong in every direction.
Those who are weaker than you are not weaker than you in every aspect. They can only be said to be inferior to you in overall strength.
Some aspects of them are still worth learning.
"Duan Lingtian."
Soon after they stopped communicating with Ye Chenfeng via voice transmission, the group returned to the temporary residence arranged for them by Xuanyu Mansion. However, Zhen Pingfan was not in a hurry to go back, and instead followed Duan Lingtian to Duan Lingtian's residence.
"Elder Zhen, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Zhen Pingfan coming over, Duan Lingtian asked with a smile, but in fact he had already guessed why Zhen Pingfan came over. Most likely, he wanted to say what Ye Chenfeng had said to him before.
And next, Zhen Pingfan's words also verified his conjecture.
At this time, Zhen Pingfan was no longer as unruly as usual. His expression was solemn. In his words, he was trying to persuade Duan Lingtian not to put too much pressure on him and not necessarily to go for the top three.
If not, it would be nice to be in the top ten.
"Elder Zhen, I know what's going on, so you can rest assured."
Duan Lingtian smiled and said: "In short, I will not be reckless, and at least I will get a top ten for Chunyang Sect."
"Um."
Seeing Duan Lingtian say this, Zhen Pingfan felt relieved. Based on his understanding of Duan Lingtian, since Duan Lingtian said this, it must not be nonsense.
Previously, he was really worried that Duan Lingtian would fight for the top three because of too much pressure.
Once he is injured due to this, it is likely to affect Duan Lingtian's fight for the top ten...
In the last Seven Palaces Feast, there was a person who was stronger than him and who was expected to be in the top ten. Because he was obsessed with competing for the top three, he was seriously injured and could not recover in a short time.
In the end, not only was he kicked out of the top ten, but even when he played against him, he was defeated by him because of a difference of thought, and his ranking was still behind him.
If it were the opponent in his prime, there was even a chance of defeating him within ten moves.
But that time, he was defeated.
He didn't want Duan Lingtian to follow in that man's footsteps.
Because of this, when Zhen Pingfan left, he did not forget to tell Duan Lingtian about this past incident through a message, invisibly further reminding Duan Lingtian not to be careless and not to advance rashly.
Duan Lingtian felt helpless about this.
Am I that unreliable?
I have told you that I will not rush in, and you nodded to express your belief. But when you left, why did you bring up this matter again?
Are you afraid that I will lose my mind?
…
After Zhen Pingfan left, Duan Lingtian went back to his room and sat on the bed, meditating, thinking about the actions of those talented geniuses in the past few days.
"Although their strength shown is not weak, if that's the case, with my current strength, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat them."
"But... who can be sure if they have any deeper hidden strength that they haven't revealed yet?"
"That's Wan Qihong. He seemed crazy when he took action before, but has he really lost his mind? He also didn't show his full strength!"
Duan Lingtian doesn't know much about the others, nor does he understand them well.
However, Wan Qihong, as his former defeated general, he understood very clearly...
In the past, when Wan Qihong had not yet consolidated his cultivation as a God-Emperor, the strength he could show was no less powerful than the angry attack he made at the Seven Palaces Banquet a few days ago.
It is impossible for Wan Qihong to regress now.
What a joke!
Even before he had consolidated his cultivation as a God Emperor, he was already so powerful.
Now that I have consolidated my cultivation, will it become weaker?
"For the feast of the Seven Palaces, half-soul high-grade artifacts are not allowed to be used...and full-soul high-grade artifacts are not allowed to be used."
Originally, the rules of the Seven Mansion Feast were that half-soul high-grade artifacts could not be used, and there was no mention that full-soul high-grade artifacts could not be used...
And this is also because, before Ye Chenfeng's high-grade whole-soul artifact was made public, there was no high-grade whole-soul artifact made public in the land of Qifu.
Perhaps, it has always been there, and some people suspect that some forces have it, but because it has not been made public, it is basically just speculation.
But Ye Chenfeng's whole-soul high-grade divine sword was witnessed by others.
Such a rule was temporarily added to the Qifu Banquet, just because they were worried that the Chunyang Sect would act rogue and use Ye Chenfeng's full-soul high-grade divine sword on others.
It's okay for others to use it, it doesn't pose much of a threat.
But if Duan Lingtian uses it, it is another concept...
Duan Lingtian, whose own strength is even in the first echelon of the Seven Palaces Feast, if he is given a high-grade divine sword with full soul, who can be his opponent?
What's more, he himself also understood the art of swordsmanship!
Not the prototype of kendo, but the real kendo!
The kind of swordsmanship mastered by Ye Chenfeng.
The strength displayed by swordsmanship, coupled with the full-soul high-grade divine sword, is definitely not as simple as one plus one.
"Prudent enough."
Duan Lingtian shook his head, and at the same time was sorting out his thoughts, thinking about how to fight with those people if he faced them.
It is difficult to completely crush them with strength.
After all, the opponent is a high-level God Emperor, and the laws and secrets he masters are not weaker than him, or even stronger than him... In addition, the opponent also has the power of blood.
So far, those few people have not shown the power of blood.
And although Duan Lingtian judged their strength by taking into account the power of their bloodline, and felt that their bloodline power would not be weak...
However, before they show the power of their bloodline, who can confirm that their bloodline power will not be stronger than you judge?
"Don't be careless."
"You must not be careless."
"If there is a chance, it is best to defeat them in the shortest possible time and completely defeat them before they gain momentum!"
Duan Lingtian said secretly.
…
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
And the second stage of the ranking battle in the final stage of the Feast of Seven Houses has arrived at the right time.
In this session, Duan Lingtian and the other 30 seeded players all acted as spectators... However, through the conversations of several Chunyang Sect disciples around him, Duan Lingcai discovered that several seeded players were not present.
Among the thirty seed players in Duan Lingtian's eyes, three of the six strongest ones did not arrive.
Luo Yuan from Qiuye Sect of Tianchen Mansion, Lin Yuan from Yanxiao Sect of Xuanyu Mansion, and Wan Qihong from Wanqi Family of Dongling Mansion were not present.
It is obvious that they are preparing for the final stage of the ranking battle one month later, the battle for the top 30 rankings.
That's right.
The second stage of the ranking battle this time will last for a full half a month, and this is just an estimate... the actual time it takes in the end may be longer.
Because, seventy-two people have to fight against each other.
Only in this way, everyone will be convinced after the final ranking.
…
In the end, the second stage of the ranking battle, the ranking battle between the 31st and 100th place in the Seven Palaces Feast of 72 people, lasted for a full nineteen days.
It took four days longer than the budgeted time.
Nineteen days, completely over.
Among the major forces in each government, some are disappointed and some are happy.
On the Chunyang Sect side, the rankings of Ye Yingcai and Yun Yewei have also come out...
Ye Yingcai, ranked 36th in the ranking list.
Yun Yewei, ranked 42nd.
…
Lan Xilin, ranked last, but managed to sneak into the top 100, ranked 98th.
Not only was Lan Xilin happy about this, even his great-grandfather Lan Zhengming, the ancestor of the Zhengming lineage, also had a smile on his face.
In fact, in Lan Zhengming's expectation, Lan Xilin would not be able to reach the top 100.
Even the Ambition Team couldn't get in.
Lan Xilin is lucky to be in the ambition group.
Now, to reach the top 100, Lan Xilin is actually also lucky, because several people were seriously injured. In his heyday, he might have been stronger than Lan Xilin, but now he is not as good as him.
Of course, Lan Xilin was not the only one who was lucky, there were several others.
Again, luck is also part of strength.
Therefore, Lan Xilin and the others reached the top 100, which surprised many people, but no one questioned it...
No matter what, they are only ranked at the bottom of the top 100. Although they can get some rewards, the rewards are worse for those who are ranked lower.
Of course, if Lan Xilin and the others made it into the top thirty, there would definitely be a group of people who would question it.
Now, no one said much.
"Everyone."
Now, it is still noon. After nearly twenty days, the second stage of the ranking competition has come to a complete end. Lin Donglai, the elder of the Yanxiao Sect who is responsible for hosting this feast of the Seven Palaces, also said loudly at this moment: "Eleven days later , is the final stage of the ranking battle, the battle for the top thirty rankings."
"And that is also the last part of this feast of the Seven Houses."
"During these eleven days, I hope that everyone will not move around... If something unpleasant happens, don't blame our Xuanyu Mansion for disqualifying some people from the rankings!"
When Lin Donglai said this later, his eyes seemed to be sharp.
Duan Lingtian and others were a little confused when they heard what he said.
It wasn't until an elder from the Chunyang Sect spoke up to explain their doubts that they found out the reason...
It turns out that in the past Feast of Seven Prefectures, some powerful men from one prefecture had appeared, and before the final stage of the Feast of Seven Prefectures began, they attacked the geniuses of other prefectures.
Although he did not take action directly, he used his powerful spiritual consciousness to deliberately traumatize the opponent's soul and affect the opponent's subsequent performance.
And the reason why they did this is naturally to hurt the geniuses of other forces who are stronger than the young geniuses behind them, and to pave the way for the geniuses in their own sect or family!
"So, for the next period of time, you all should be honest and don't go out."
Zhen Pingfan glanced at Duan Lingtian, then looked at Yang Qianye, and warned with a serious expression.
