Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 428: Changes in the Race Schedule

The time for the ranked battle has arrived, but the seats in the Royal Sanctuary are still vacant. Feng Hengkong did not announce the start of the ranking battle, but looked at the sky... If the other three holy places were late, he could choose not to wait, but for the Emperor Holy Land, he had to wait.

Feng Hengkong didn't let Feng Hengkong wait too long. At this moment, an old and peaceful voice came from far above.

"Alas... Gu came late due to something, so I kept you all waiting for a long time. I'm so ashamed, so ashamed."

The sound was ethereal and long, as if it came from the sky. At the same time, a peaceful and vast aura descended from the sky, covering the entire arena. This extremely rich aura makes people immediately think of the ocean, the starry sky, the abyss... it is vast and boundless.

"Emperor!" Jasmine's slightly surprised voice came from Yun Che's mind.

Yun Che's spirit suddenly shook.

Emperor! ? The person coming is an emperor! ?

It is extremely unusual for the Holy Land to have a young palace master come... Why would an emperor be sent here!

In the Tianxuan Continent, the Shenxuan Realm is a mythical existence. According to legend, it is a dreamland that humans cannot reach at all. The Junxuan Realm is the pinnacle of this world. An emperor is the well-deserved supreme king of the entire Tianxuan Continent! As for emperors, they only exist in the Holy Land and the Divine Phoenix Sect. Even in the Holy Land and the Divine Phoenix Sect, they are extremely rare.

In this seven-nation ranking match, Yun Che's horizons were completely opened. Although they belong to the same continent, the Divine Phoenix Empire and the Blue Wind Kingdom are like two completely different worlds. In the Blue Wind Kingdom, the throne is an unsurpassable limit, but here, there are thrones everywhere, the overlord is rampant, and now there is another emperor!

A figure slowly fell from the sky at this moment. This is an old man in a light yellow robe, holding a whisk in his hand, with white hair and white beard, an immortal spirit, and a gentle face, just like a Taoist immortal who is about to ascend.

When the other people from the Three Holy Lands arrived, Feng Hengkong just stood up to greet them. But this time, Feng Hengkong left the table directly and hurried to greet them. Behind him, Feng Feiyan and other elders also left the table and followed.

Feng Hengkong quickly came to the old man, bowed respectfully and said, "Junior Phoenix Divine Sect Feng Hengkong pays his respects to Master Gu Cang."

The Four Holy Lands, the Emperor is extremely revered. The old man in front of him is a supreme elder in the Holy Land. Even if he is the Holy Emperor, he must be courteous to him. Moreover, the Divine Phoenix Sect has always had the closest exchanges with the Emperor Sanctuary. Although it is not obvious, the Divine Phoenix Sect has indeed always had the intention to move closer to the Holy Land of the Emperor.

Master Gu Cang didn't have the authority and airs of the Grand Elder of the Holy Land. He flicked his fly whisk, returned the gift, and said with a smile: "Gu came late for some reason. It's really a sin. I hope Master Phoenix Sect will forgive me."

Feng Hengkong said: "What are you talking about, Master Gu Cang? Your coming in person is already a great honor for our Divine Phoenix Sect... Oh? I remember, this junior, Master Gu Cang should have come with one of his disciples. Why..."

"Haha." Master Gu Cang smiled faintly: "Gu did indeed bring his disciple here, just to let him experience the ranking battle and explore the ancient profound ark. I never thought that he would meet him by chance in this Divine Phoenix City. Old friend, just drive this bad old man away and come here by yourself, hehehehe.”

"I see. To be able to be accepted as a closed disciple by Master Gu Cang, the disciple must have superhuman talent. Please, Master Gu Cang." Feng Hengkong stretched out his hand and motioned to the seats in Huangji Sanctuary.

Gu Cang took his seat, Ling Kun, Ye Xinghan, and even Ji Qianrou all stood up, solemnly and respectfully performed a junior salute. This move made Yun Che's heart move. The status of Master Gu Cang in the Holy Land of Emperor Ji is evident.

Everyone from the Four Holy Lands had also arrived, and the scene was quiet. The Seven Kingdoms ranking battle had finally begun.

Following Feng Hengkong's look, Phoenix Grand Elder Feng Feiyan flew up and flew to the center of the arena. A majestic and loud phoenix cry came from him, and then, flames burst into the sky and kept running on him. Rising to a height of tens of feet, everyone's eyes were firmly focused on him.

Feng Feiyan looked around and said loudly: "My Excellency, Feng Feiyan, the Chief Elder of the Divine Phoenix Sect, is honored to meet the heroes and young heroes of the world. On behalf of the Divine Phoenix Sect, I would like to thank all of you friends who have come from afar to come to Phoenix City. This time, it is my heaven. The 39th Ranking Tournament of the Xuan Qi Kingdom will be hosted by me, Feng Feiyan, and the distinguished guests from the Four Holy Lands will be the witnesses! The Seven Kingdoms Ranking Tournament is held every twenty-five years, for the young talents of our Tianxuan Seven Kingdoms. A battle of profound strength, a battle to shock the world, and a battle to promote national prestige..."

"Wow! The great elder is actually presiding over it. Huh? That's not right! Why is the great elder presiding over it?" Feng Zhanyun said with a surprised look on his face. Obviously, he did not know in advance that the Grand Elder would personally host this ranking match. Even if someone told him in advance, he probably would not believe it, because in the past, the ranking matches of the Seven Kingdoms were usually presided over by a low-level elder at most.

"Is there any special factor in this ranking match?" Feng Zhanyun asked in a low voice.

Except for the Supreme Senior and Princess Xue, Feng Feiyan's status in the Divine Phoenix Sect was almost second only to Feng Hengkong. Even the Crown Prince Feng Ximing had to be respectful in front of him. He personally presided over this Seven Nations Ranking Tournament, and even a few people in the Holy Land were slightly surprised. The audience in the seats held their breaths and looked at Feng Feiyan with admiration and respect. The words in their ears were like thunder.

It is a completely different concept to be presided over by the great elder himself, and to be presided over by ordinary elders and hall masters. Everyone vaguely smelled something strange. Sure enough, after Feng Feiyan finished reading the speech, he suddenly raised his eyes and pointed his finger at the sky: "Everyone, look up and look, yes, the giant shadow in the sky that covers the sky and the sun is the hidden shadow that appears once in three hundred years. The ancient profound ark holding the unknown secret!"

"The Ancient Profound Ark has always appeared in the sky of our Divine Phoenix City, and only our Divine Phoenix Empire has always been qualified to explore it. But this time, the sect leader is broad-minded and is willing to board the Ancient Profound Ark together with friends from the Six Nations. Share the secret of the Ancient Mysterious Ark. In this ranking competition, the top three will be able to choose three people to explore the Ancient Mysterious Ark together.”

Although they are among the top three in the ranking, everyone knows that the first place must be the Divine Phoenix Sect. Therefore, there are only six people from two countries who are lucky enough to board the Ancient Xuan Ark.

"However," Feng Feiyan suddenly changed her voice and said, "Just a few days ago, our sect suddenly discovered that the mysterious seal at the main door of the Ancient Xuan Ark was loosened early, which also meant that the main door of the Xuan Ark would be smaller than expected. It opens four days in advance!”

"Huh?" Several people in the Holy Land all frowned.

"Four days in advance? So, the Ancient Xuan Ark will be opened tomorrow?" Ye Xinghan whispered.

"It should be so... No wonder it was Feng Feiyan who came to personally preside over this ranking match. Something happened." Ling Kun also whispered: "If I guessed correctly, this ranking match is going to... It ended early.”

Feng Feiyan continued: "Our sect originally decided to start exploring the Ancient Mysterious Ark the next day after the ranking match, but this time, the Ancient Mysterious Ark will be opened to tomorrow! The Ancient Mysterious Ark can only be opened for ten times at a time. Two hours. It took three hundred years to get these twelve hours, so of course we must not waste any of it! But I, the Phoenix Divine Sect, will never go back on what I have said. Therefore, in order to explore the Ancient Xuan Ark together tomorrow, this platoon will be held. The schedule of the position battle will also be greatly compressed... The top three must be determined within today!"

Wow~~~~

As soon as Feng Feiyan's words came out, the entire arena was in an uproar. They all understood that the Ancient Xuan Ark would be opened in advance... and at the same time, this year's ranking competition would be compressed into one day... that is, it would be completed within today!

All previous ranking matches have lasted at least five days, without exception. Seventy top young players from the seven countries competed in a round-robin fashion. In the past, even the five-day competition venue was always full, and the competition period was often extended. It was impossible to complete the competition in just one day. .

The faces of those who participated in the war, as well as the emperors and overlords of various countries, all changed rapidly... The ranking battle of the seven countries was a national event, and the ranking results were related to a country's status and glory in the next twenty-five years. For this ranking battle, every country has made full preparations several years in advance, and all the rare treasures accumulated for more than 20 years have been used without hesitation in the past few years... For those young participants in the war, , this ranking match is the highest stage for them to express themselves, and the best opportunity for them to become famous in the world! If the original five-day schedule is really compressed into one day...their performance time will undoubtedly be compressed by a full 80%!

How could they accept such a contrast?

And there were more than three million spectators who had worked hard to get admission. They could have enjoyed the peak battle for five days, but suddenly there was only one day left. Naturally, they were extremely unhappy.

"No wonder the Great Elder is required to preside over it himself." Yun Che muttered to himself in a low voice: "It turns out that the power of the Great Elder is used to suppress possible chaotic situations. If the competition schedule is shortened to one day..." At this point in his soliloquy, he His brows moved slightly, and he felt an unpleasant feeling in his heart.

The commotion that suddenly erupted in the arena was expected by the Divine Phoenix Sect. Feng Feiyan's expression did not change, but her voice suddenly became louder: "Although the schedule has been shortened, please rest assured that this battle of the Seven Kingdoms will still be absolutely fair and equitable! Even...more so than in previous decades. Fair and fair! It can determine the strength ranking of our Tianxuan Seven Kingdoms without any bias!"

Feng Feiyan's words made everyone look shocked... Will the competition schedule be shortened from five days to one day, which will make it more fair?

Feng Feiyan continued: "In the previous Seven Nations Ranking Tournament, seventy young heroes took turns to compete, and the final ranking was based on the highest ranking achieved by the participants from their own countries. However, this ranking method, The emphasis is on the strength of a country's top mystical practitioners, but in fact, the best demonstration of a country's strength is the overall strength of a country's participants. Therefore, this year's ranking competition will cancel the individual battle and change it to a group battle. To fight! In every ranking match, all the mysterious practitioners from both sides must appear!"

There was an uproar in the arena. Yun Che's eyes widened, he stared at Feng Feiyan with a cold face, and cursed fiercely:

Damn it! !
