Any top of the Earth Ranking is a child of heaven; normally, before leaving the rankings, they are able to step onto the Heavenly Ranking.
Ge Hengzi is one of the few who became first in the Earth Ranking but never made it to the Heavenly Ranking.
He was like a fallen genius, almost forgotten by everyone; only his identity as a Dao Envoy kept people remembering him.
Now, he appears once again, returning to the Heaven and Earth Ranking!
"Ge Hengzi has actually replaced Shou Qiaoba at the 41st position! How did he become so powerful?"
"Incredible! Is this the Earth Ranking first from a thousand years ago? After a millennium of cultivation, he's finally stepped onto the Heavenly Ranking!"
Anyone can challenge the Heaven and Earth Ranking, as long as their age fits, this includes elders of the Dao Palace.
