Seeing his spirit rings had been upgraded, the other five people couldn't help but breathe heavily.
[One hundred and forty-first, Human, Level 88 Soul Douluo, possessing the Clear Sky Hammer spirit.
Reward: All spirit rings gain 2,500 years, reward: Special skill Heaven-Breaking Hammer Technique]
As the names were announced one by one, the rewards became increasingly tempting.
Within the Clear Sky Sect, the five elders fixed their burning gazes on the golden ranking.
Now, apart from Tang Xiao, the other five had all received rewards.
The five elders speculated that his ranking was definitely within the top twenty! Perhaps even in the top ten!
Everyone pinned their hopes on him.
[Battle Power Ranking, Thirteenth Place - Human, 94th Rank Title Douluo, possesses the Clear Sky Hammer. All spirit rings enhanced by 8,000 years, gains the special skill Shooting Star Hammer Technique, receives two skill enhancement opportunities]
Tang Xiao activated his martial soul. Apart from the first three spirit rings, which were purple, the rest of his spirit rings had turned black.
The Tang family members were very disappointed that he hadn't made it into the top ten.
As the esteemed Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, not even making the top ten was a huge letdown.
Just as they were disappointed, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, also one of the top three sects, erupted in an uproar.
The Clear Sky Sect actually had two Title Douluos and four Soul Douluo-level experts.
And each of them was quite formidable in terms of combat strength, not weaker than many ordinary Title Douluo.
What about the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? The entire clan only had one Title Douluo, the head of the family, who ranked only nineteenth on the Golden Ranking.
[Combat Strength Ranking, Twelfth Place — Human, Level 96 Title Douluo, possessing the Martial Soul Seven Kill Sword. Reward: All spirit rings enhanced by 8,000 years, obtain the special skill Myriad Transformations Sword Technique, gain two skill enhancement opportunities]
Next, the top ten, including the Sky Azure Bull Python, Golden Crocodile Douluo, Bibi Dong, and Tang Hao, all appeared. Tang Hao ranked seventh.
The sixth and fifth places were held by super sea soul beasts of the 300,000 and 400,000-year levels, fully demonstrating the terrifying potential of sea soul beasts! For the last four places, Ling Yun almost didn't need to think.
Besides the three Level 99 peak Douluo and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who was close to a million years old, who else could it be?
The reality was exactly as Ling Yun thought.
[Battle Power Ranking, Fourth Place — Human, Level 99 Title Douluo, possessing the Six-Winged Angel spirit, all soul rings enhanced by 9,000 years.
Obtained the special skill Holy Purification, received three skill enhancement opportunities, Angel affinity +2%]
[Battle Power Ranking, Third Place — Human, Level 99 Title Douluo, possessing the Clear Sky Hammer spirit.
All soul rings enhanced by 9,000 years, obtained the special skill Infinite Hammer, received three skill enhancement opportunities, obtained Asura God affinity +2%]
[Battle Power Ranking, Second Place — Human, Level 99 Title Douluo, possessing the Sea God spirit, all soul rings enhanced by 9,000 years.
Obtained the special skill Infinite Sea, received three skill enhancement opportunities, Sea God affinity +2%]
[Battle Power Ranking, First Place — Soul Beast, over 900,000 years, Deep Sea Demon Whale King, rewarded with 20,000 years of cultivation.
Obtained the special skill Nightmare Twilight, received three skill enhancement opportunities, Sea God affinity +3%]
The Clear Sky Sect was in an uproar!
Of the powerhouses on the Combat Strength Golden Ranking, eight possessed the Clear Sky Hammer.
If they had the Clear Sky Hammer, they were undoubtedly disciples of the Clear Sky Sect.
Tang Xiao looked at the seventh and third places, and excitedly said, "It must be Hao and Grandpa. I hope they can return to the Clear Sky Sect. If so, the Clear Sky Sect will still be the number one sect in the world!"
This was just Tang Xiao's thought. In the eyes of the other five elders, as long as Tang Chen could one day return to the Clear Sky Sect, that was enough.
As for Tang Hao, it would be best if he died outside and never returned to the Clear Sky Sect to cause trouble for them.
What could a jinx like him do besides bring disaster to the family?
Just when everyone thought the Combat Strength Golden Ranking was finished...
Unexpectedly, a change occurred. A line of text appeared in the third-place position on the combat strength ranking.
[Due to the third-place individual on the combat strength ranking being temporarily unable to receive the reward, the reward will be transferred to the most qualified member of the same clan.
A single individual can only receive a reward once on the same ranking.]
Unable to receive the reward temporarily? What exactly did that mean?
The people of the Clear Sky Sect were all bewildered. The Old Ancestor had clearly made it onto the combat strength golden ranking, yet he couldn't receive the reward? Why?
The five elders quickly reacted, focusing their gazes on Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao gave a wry smile and shook his head helplessly.
"Don't look at me. The most qualified person in the entire clan certainly isn't me; it's my younger brother, Tang Hao."
Upon hearing this, the five elders' faces displayed a variety of expressions.
Previously, they had hoped Tang Hao would die outside; now, they hoped even more that Tang Hao could return to the sect.
But the sea of people was vast, where could they find Tang Hao?
In Holy Soul Village, Tang Hao, slumped on the ground, was completely sober.
He felt the power that had just been bestowed upon him being stripped away. A moment later, he was granted entirely new, even stronger power.
He clenched his fist, but didn't release his spirit rings. He silently put away his Clear Sky Hammer and picked up Tang San, who was beside him, and walked towards the house.
It was as if everything was unrelated to him. After his wife died five years ago, his heart had died with her...
From the golden ranking, many people discovered some problems.
Of the two hundred spots on the golden ranking, the ratio of humans to soul beasts was roughly 1:3.
That meant there were about 50 humans. Except for a small number at the Soul Douluo level, the rest were all at the Title Douluo level.
Normally, there are only a dozen or so on the entire continent. Why so many suddenly? Shouldn't that be food for thought?
The Potential Golden Ranking began to slowly open.
"The Advancement Golden Ranking assesses the progress in cultivation of those on the list over the past year.
Due to differences in advancement speed between low and high levels, and the differences in cultivation between soul beasts and humans,
This Golden Ranking will consider differences brought about by age, martial soul, and other factors, to ensure fairness as much as possible."
"Consider the progress in cultivation over the past year?"
Ling Yun looked thoughtfully at the words on the Advancement Golden Ranking.
He was eager to know if the progress of his cultivation after devouring the tiger-type soul beast could be included.
