Chapter 443 The Uproar of Making the List!!!

Heavenly Ranking Supreme, Earthly Ranking Prominent, Human Ranking Hidden Dragon!

These three rankings are the Ascending Immortal Rankings, jointly established by the Ascending Immortal Tower.

The Human Ranking Hidden Dragon needs no further explanation. Chen Yuan climbed to the top step by step from the bottom, comprising three hundred and sixty-five, corresponding to the number of the celestial cycles. The Earthly Ranking Prominent has seventy-two places, corresponding to the number of the earthly fiends.

Those who can make it onto the rankings are all powerful figures in the martial world.

There are not many restrictions on this ranking. As long as one is under seventy years old, they can be on the list, because once they pass seventy, the strength of a Core Realm Grandmaster will gradually decline.

Therefore, this ranking mainly includes genuine strong individuals.

There are quite a few Grandmasters in the world, with dozens in Qingzhou alone. Thus, since the establishment of this ranking, most of those listed are Grandmasters at the Heavenly Core level.

Very few are Solid Core Grandmasters.

Even if there are any, they are rare exceptions, capable of matching Heavenly Core Grandmasters, and mostly found at the bottom of the ranking. As for those at the Virtual Core cultivation level who can ascend to the Prominent Ranking,

There are hardly three or five throughout history.

But his achievements are genuine, witnessed by hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, a direct confrontation with a Heavenly Core, beheading him within a hundred breaths, which cannot be falsified.

Among the onlookers were not a few branch tower masters of the Ascending Immortal Tower in the capital.

Listing him on the Prominent Ranking is absolutely inevitable. Otherwise, the martial artists who witnessed it would be the first to object. But which rank to place him on is a significant matter.

After all, most of those who can ascend to the Prominent Ranking are elders of immortal sects, leaders of top forces, or even the Gold Envoys of a state. If it is not fair,

It will cause many people to question the Ascending Immortal Tower's impartiality.

There are many observers of this matter. Besides the internal disputes within the Ascending Immortal Tower caused by Chen Yuan, this ranking matter has also attracted great attention in the martial world.

Some say Chen Yuan is too young after all, and placing him at the bottom is enough.

But more people refuted, saying that he defeated the number one genius of Dongying (Japan). If he were only ranked at the bottom, it would be unconvincing. Many Heavenly Core Grandmasters witnessed that battle.

They could sense Chen Yuan's strength.

The surging fist intent, the sharp saber energy, and the Dragon Soul that materialized at the end, ask, below the Transformation Yang stage, how many can easily withstand that move?

The ranking must not be too low.

Otherwise, the Ascending Immortal Tower would be suspected of suppression.

But no matter what rank Chen Yuan is placed on, his strength is proven. His talent is unmatched, and only a few in the world can hope to catch up.

After all, being able to ascend to the Prominent Ranking at the age of twenty-something

Is definitely a shocking piece of news.

The martial world is in constant debate and speculation about this. However, Chen Yuan's attention is not on this. He is still cultivating.

Ascending to the Prominent Ranking can only make his reputation louder. Other than that, there are no other benefits.

The Hidden Dragon Ranking has the Ascending Immortal Battle, but the Prominent Ranking does not. It is just one of the symbols of a martial artist's status and prestige.

Therefore, Chen, who has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, is not very enthusiastic.

He would rather receive some substantial benefits.

Since entering the Marquis of Wuwei's residence that day, Chen Yuan, besides going to the Eastern Imperial City Guard once a day, continued to remain secluded, continuing to immerse himself in bitter cultivation.

This disappointed some people who were paying attention to this matter.

They thought that Chen Yuan, being a successful young man, would have some high-spirited behavior.

They didn't know that Chen Yuan's primary goal now is the Seven Stars Alignment in a few days, to see if he can further improve his strength. The next bigger goal is to enter the harem to find the Dragon Vein Land that suppresses Moro.

Now, there is less than a month left until the triennial ancestral ceremony. Preparations are gradually starting everywhere, but he still has no clue.

Because of his identity, he cannot rashly investigate the harem in detail.

As for other places, Chen Yuan has already surveyed them once, excluding all the locations given by Jiang He. Then, there is only one place left, and that is the harem!

Even during one of the discussions among the Lords of the Ways, the other Lords, besides congratulating Chen Yuan on his further improvement in strength, inquired about this matter.

But when they learned that the location where Senior Moro was suppressed was in the harem, they couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in their hearts.

They obviously understood the difficulty involved.

That place... is not so easy to enter.

Chen Yuan told the Lords of the Ways not to worry as the time has not yet come. Before the ancestral ceremony, he will definitely find a way to enter the harem again to find the place where Senior Moro is suppressed.

If necessary, he would just cause some trouble.

With his convenient identity, it shouldn't be too difficult, but there would be subsequent hidden dangers.

The other Lords of the Ways also knew Chen Yuan's abilities and expressed their belief in him.

Yes, abilities.

In the eyes of these Lords of the Way Divinity Palace, besides Chen Yuan's own talent being rare in a century, his ability is also one of his major advantages.

It's just that it was overshadowed by the light of his talent.

In fact, Chen Yuan's ability to handle affairs had already been fully demonstrated in the previous Tangshan Prefecture.

They talked a lot in the Heavenly Book, talking about their recent situations. Most of them didn't have anything to report. Only the Evil Ghost Lord had some exchanges with the Gu family because of the previous killing of Gu family’s Transformation Yang expert.

But he couldn't do anything to him.

Without a True Lord present, no one can defeat him.

As for the other Lords of the Ways, they are now also preparing for the ancestral ceremony. Chu Changfeng once said that this time will be when the Way Divinity Palace organization appears before everyone's eyes.

They will inevitably show up and fight that day, causing some chaos. It cannot be concealed at all. As long as they hide their true identities well, it doesn't matter if they are exposed.

It will only add to their mystique.

After briefly explaining some plans, Chu Changfeng changed the topic and asked about Chen Yuan's physical body cultivation. Obviously, he had already learned about Chen Yuan's previous display of the "Indestructible Diamond" physical body cultivation.

He wasn't surprised, but only thought that Chen Yuan was indeed exceptionally insightful.

How long has it been since his last Core Formation?

It hasn't even been two months, and his physical body has made such progress. He is also about to ascend to the Prominent Ranking after a battle. Indeed, Senior Moro's vision is as terrifying as ever.

Chen Yuan honestly confessed and asked Chu Changfeng for advice on many cultivation issues. The other party told him everything and pointed out a few key tricks.

Besides contacting the Lords of the Ways once, in the past few days, the Marquis of Wuwei's residence also welcomed several distinguished guests who came to visit. The First Prince, Sima Qian, and the Second Prince, Sima Ke, all personally came to congratulate Chen Yuan after he opened his residence.

After the Fourth Prince, Sima Ke, was severely punished by Jingtai, his power base was greatly damaged. Although it wasn't completely uprooted, the gap between him and them had widened.

Therefore, in their eyes, as long as there are no accidents in the future, the position of Crown Prince will be born between them.

Taking this opportunity, their forces expanded a lot.

And the person they most wanted to win over at the moment was Chen Yuan.

He has talent, power, status, and reputation.

If they could get Chen Yuan to side with either of them, they would definitely gain a favorable position, not to mention the Sky Patrol Division and Jiang He, the Qingzhou Gold Envoy behind him.

However, Chen Yuan was not enthusiastic about this and just dealt with it perfunctorily.

In his opinion, Jingtai is now at the height of his power and has not established a crown prince, which shows his attitude. Would he be crazy to get involved in this struggle for succession?

Moreover, no matter how much they plan now, it is all in vain. The best time is when Jingtai opens his mouth to prepare to establish a crown prince.

Therefore, Chen Yuan's method is to befriend both of them at the same time.

Even if they are just chatting, they only talk about romance, poetry, and songs, or at worst, what new courtesans have appeared in the capital. They don't talk about major court affairs or the chaos in the capital.

If they want to talk, then he will listen quietly and not get involved.

Sima Qian and Sima You knew Chen Yuan's attitude clearly, but they could only reluctantly befriend him and didn't dare to put on any airs of a prince.

After all, the Fourth Prince's example is right in front of them.

Although the Fourth Prince's loss of power was his own fault, violating court orders, and they also contributed to it, Chen Yuan played the biggest role in this.

He was the first to have a falling out with the Fourth Prince, and he was also the first to directly deal with his uncle, causing the Fourth Prince to panic and eagerly want to deal with Chen Yuan.

As a result, he tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice, and killed himself.

Copying Taoist and Buddhist scriptures in the palace also requires him to write them himself, which is a very large workload and cannot be completed in a few months.

Most importantly....

He incurred the displeasure of his father.

This is the most important thing.

They don't want to follow the Fourth Prince's old path and try their best to befriend Chen Yuan.

In addition to the two princes, the Eldest Princess, Pingyang, also came to join in the fun, intending to befriend Chen Yuan. She didn't mention Sima Ke at all, which made Sima Qian and Sima You feel a little uneasy.

Princess Pingyang has a convenient identity, and she is now a maiden waiting to be married. Chen Yuan is now very prestigious and also has a marquis title in hand, so he can be called a nobleman. What if they two are.....

This would not be a good thing for them.

It might even turn into a bad thing.

In any case, Pingyang and the Fourth Prince are from the same mother. If Chen Yuan is really betrothed by the emperor, wouldn't that mean that Chen Yuan and the Fourth Prince will make peace?

Worried, the two thought of sending some women to Chen Yuan so that he would not be confused by Pingyang. They even unintentionally said some of the harms of being a驸马 (the Emperor’s son-in-law).

Realizing this, Chen Yuan couldn't help but laugh, thinking that Sima Qian and Sima You were definitely overthinking it.

He had already understood that wine and women are harmful to the body.

Therefore, he rarely drinks, except when he is in the mood.

As for beauty.....

As everyone knows, Chen does not approach women.

But they don't think so, they just think that Chen Yuan might not like them. After all, which man doesn't like women?

There might be a moment.

But that is a saintly moment, and it will disappear in a while.

They are still trying to get Chen Yuan some new tricks, such as Western Regions, Dongying (Japan), Northern Barbarians....

This made Chen Yuan speechless.

Are they still like princes?

Especially the First Prince, Sima Qian, is the most enthusiastic.

The Second Prince, Sima You, is still a little reserved and won't say it openly. On the surface, when he sees that Chen Yuan has no intention of betting, he only asks Chen Yuan for poetry advice.

He said that he admired Chen Yuan's literary talent very much.

Chen Yuan's answer to this was....

It was just a whim.

He usually doesn't like these petty things.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, several days passed. The noise in the capital began to cool down a bit, but you can still hear people and warriors discussing the previous breakthrough.

There are surprisingly few entertainment activities in this world. It is still making many people immersed in it to have something happy and happy, otherwise they can only turn off the lights and sleep.

These days, Chen Yuan doesn't have much free time.

In addition to a few princes and some colleagues, his good sister-in-law also sent a gift. In fact... Chen Yuan can use this person's means to move unimpeded in the harem.

It's just that if things are revealed, she will be involved.

If people have no intention of harming him, he will not hurt people's hearts.

After thinking about it, he finally decided to put this matter on hold unless there is really no other way, and then he will ask this sister-in-law for help.

On this day, Chen Yuan ended his half-day of cultivation, took a cold shower, and sat leisurely in the backyard, drinking tea. In his hand was a letter from Qingzhou.

Before, after Chen Yuan passed the barrier, he sent a letter asking Liu Zheng Song to treat the people kindly and at least let the people live a better life within their power.

This place is still very far from Qingzhou. The reason why the letter came so quickly is mainly because it used the Sky Patrol Division's internal channels.

The sound transmission device is still too extravagant after all. Unless there is something important, it is still mainly based on manpower on weekdays, and after years of development, the Sky Patrol Division's channels are spread throughout the Central Plains, and the transmission of information is already very fast.

The information in his heart is nothing strange. Overall, it is that Liu Zheng Song has received Chen Yuan's order and asked him to rest assured. In addition, it is steady development, and everything is safe.

It is impossible to be too straightforward through the means of the imperial court. A few words are enough.

It won't be noticed by anyone.

This is just a comfort. In fact, if something really happens, Jiang He will notify him. Moreover, with Jiang He present, what could happen?

He casually picked up a cup of spiritual tea and took a sip. Suddenly, a surprised voice came from outside. Chen Yuan put down the letter in his hand without showing any trace and looked ahead.

The person who came was Tao Qingyuan.

At this moment, he was holding something in his hand, walked quickly into the backyard, looked at Chen Yuan and smiled, and said:

"Sir, you are on the Prominent Ranking!"

Chen Yuan nodded, without too much surprise. He had expected this for a long time, and casually asked:

"What's the rank?"

"Reporting to your Lordship, the forty-eighth!"

"Forty-eighth?"

The corner of Chen Yuan's eye twitched slightly. He was a little surprised at this ranking. He originally thought that based on his achievements this time, it should be after the fiftieth.

After all, Ito Ichito was only a beginner in the Heavenly Core Realm.

Unexpectedly, the Ascending Immortal Tower directly ranked him in the top fifty, which is considered very high....

And in Chen Yuan's impression, Xiao Yunsheng, the sect leader of the Qingyun Sword Sect, seemed to be ranked forty-sixth before. Doesn't this mean that Chen Yuan can already be compared with Xiao Yunsheng?

At least in his opinion, it is still a bit lacking.

Xiao Yunsheng is an old-fashioned Heavenly Core Grandmaster with great strength.

With his current strength, he is still not as good as him.

It seems that the Ascending Immortal Tower is also afraid of his repeatedly soaring strength, and directly ranked him in the top fifty, which is almost unmatched by his record.

Of course, as far as Xiao Yunsheng's strength is concerned, he must have hidden a lot of it. Jiang He once commented on him before, and his true strength should be around the top thirty on the Prominent Ranking.

"Yes, this is the Prominent Ranking published today."

Tao Qingyuan immediately put the things in his hand on the stone table. Chen Yuan looked down and saw a brief introduction of him on it, which focused on the battle with Ito Ichito that day.

"Not bad."

"Congratulations, my Lord!" Tao Qingyuan cupped his hands.

Before, Tao Qingyuan was quite awkward when facing Chen Yuan, his immediate superior. It was precisely because he saw this that Chen Yuan said that the two of them should interact equally at ordinary times.

This made Tao Qingyuan feel a little more comfortable.

But after these few incidents, abolishing Yang Hucheng, making enemies with the Fourth Prince, breaking through the Sumeru Illusion, and killing the Dongying (Japanese) genius, all of this has established Chen Yuan's authority.

There is no longer that awkward feeling in his heart, and he is only happy for Chen Yuan.

He also felt fortunate for the good relationship he had formed that year.

Among the current four deputy commanders of the Eastern Imperial City Guard, he, Tao Qingyuan, is the boss and the one with the most power. Everyone knows that he is Chen Yuan's confidant,

No one dares to challenge his authority at all.

He even has a lot of face in the Sky Patrol Division. When he went to the headquarters to listen to orders before, the Core Realm Grandmaster who ignored him before had a pleasant chat with him, and his status soared.

And all of this is borrowed from Chen Yuan's power!

"What is a little bit of fame worth?"

Tao Qingyuan laughed heartily and said, "This is not a trivial matter. It is worth celebrating. How about a few drinks at the Juxian Tower today?"

Chen Yuan slowly shook his head:

"Let's do it another day."

Tonight is the time when the Seven Stars Alignment phenomenon guided by the opportunity appears. He doesn't have the leisure to drink any wine. If he misses it, it will be a big loss.

Seeing Chen Yuan's refusal so simply, Tao Qingyuan didn't dare to force it, just said that he would celebrate another day.

Chen Yuan agreed.

As Chen Yuan expected, after the Ascending Immortal Tower published the new Prominent Ranking, it did set off another small storm, and many people started to talk about Chen Yuan's name again.

Said he was a peerless genius, only in his twenties, and he ascended to the Prominent Ranking.

What is the Prominent Ranking?

Stirring up the situation in the martial world!

Chen Yuan also did this in practice. Many of the things he has done recently have successfully stirred up the situation in the martial world.

The biggest response was in Qingzhou.

Because Chen Yuan's birthplace is Ping'an County, Nanling Prefecture, Qingzhou.

It is inevitable that it will be more lively in your home stadium.

Among them, Nanling Prefecture and Tangshan Prefecture are the most prosperous!

And those storytellers had new material again and began to artistically fabricate the great things that Chen Yuan had done in the capital, simply blowing him up to the sky.

Said that the current Holy Emperor relies most on Chen, the Azure Envoy, and he has also become a great figure in the capital who says what he means.
