Chapter 1 The Beginning
First place goes to a female cultivator, and as expected, she is a powerhouse from the Divine Dome Domain.
First Place: Shen Qing, Affiliated Great World: Divine Dome Domain, Divine Seat: Creator God!
Following her is second place: Hei Huang, Affiliated Great World: Black Soul Domain, Divine Seat: Creator God!
Third Place: Xue Mian, Affiliated Great World: Drifting Snow Domain, Divine Seat: Creator God!
Fourth Place: Jin Wuji, Affiliated Great World: Sacred Emperor Domain, Divine Seat: Creator God!
Fifth Place: Cang Ming, Affiliated Great World: Ancient Cang Domain, Divine Seat: Creator God!
Sixth Place: Leng Qianqiu, Affiliated Great World: Ghost Spirit Domain, Divine Seat: Supreme Lord God!
From sixth place onwards, the list does not include everyone but seems to only rank the top one hundred million in Divine Seat.
Through this Divine Seat ranking, Ye Yun noticed something.
From the cultivation levels and affiliated Great Worlds of these top five, two things could be determined.
First, the ranking of Great Worlds is not solely based on the strongest individual but is likely a comprehensive assessment of various factors.
Second, regarding the grading of Great Worlds, it is highly probable that only after possessing a Creator God can a world be classified as a Level Nine Great World.
After all, the Ghost Spirit Domain, ranked below these, was graded as Level Eight and its top expert was a Supreme Lord God.
Unsurprisingly, the top deities on the entire list are all from high-level Great Worlds, indicating a significant power gap between different tiers.
There is also an interesting, or perhaps humane, detail: beyond the top one thousand, the names of the affiliated Great Worlds are no longer displayed.
Xing Wu stared at the list for a moment before turning to Ye Yun and asking.
"What do you think a Creator God is like?"
"Perhaps someone who can cleave the heavens and earth? Create worlds and such?"
Ye Yun mused, as the concept of a creator god was too abstract.
To speak of creating worlds felt a bit far-fetched.
To truly understand it, one would likely need to reach that realm themselves to grasp its true meaning.
Ye Yun let out a long sigh and looked up at the sky.
"There are two lists now, I wonder if there are any others."
Based on what they've seen so far, their Heavenly Domain doesn't seem to rank highly in any aspect within the entirety of the Grand Thousand Worlds.
Both his personal strength and the overall power of the Heavenly Domain appear to be rather low.
Just then, the phenomenon in the sky had not dissipated. As the second scroll fully unfurled, a third golden scroll appeared.
This time, the content was slightly different from before; it was a Grand Thousand World Talent Ranking!
It recorded the most outrageously talented cultivators, or rather, deities, among all at that time, also listing only the top one hundred million.
However, the individuals appearing on this list were rather thought-provoking.
The later entries are not important; the focus is on the top ten. This list was flipped open from the back, meaning from lowest to highest.
Somewhat expectedly, those at the top of the talent ranking were mostly from high-level Great Worlds.
Starting from seventh place was Leng Qianqiu from the Ghost Spirit Domain.
Then came sixth place, Hei Huang, a Creator God previously seen from the Black Soul Domain.
It's interesting, as this individual is immensely powerful, yet his talent ranking is surprisingly low.
Next was fifth place, Xue Mian, a Creator God from the Drifting Snow Domain.
Following that was fourth place, occupied by an unknown individual.
Fourth Place: Meng Ji, Current Divine Seat: Hundred-Tier Celestial God!
The list did not specify how his talent was so exceptional to surpass those Creator Gods.
But the subsequent entries brought further intrigue.
Third Place: Chu Ai, Current Divine Seat: Spirit God Tier!
"???"
Outside the Great Luo Domain.
Ye Yun and the others were stunned.
Instantly, all eyes turned to Xiao Ai within the crowd.
This individual was also a Spirit God and was naturally with the group, though he hadn't had much opportunity to showcase himself.
But now, seeing the name on the list, they were all dumbfounded.
Ye Yun couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and ask.
"Do you think this is you?"
"Uh, this disciple isn't quite sure, but it's likely,"
Xiao Ai couldn't be certain, as the identity information on the list was sparse, and even his world of origin wasn't mentioned, likely to protect geniuses who were talented but hadn't yet matured.
However, the situation was quite clear.
While the name Chu Ai could be common, the probability of another individual with the same name and a Spirit God Tier cultivation is extremely low.
Yet, before he could marvel at his disciple's exceptional talent.
Xing Wu, who had just turned back to look at the list, froze and immediately exclaimed.
"You all, quickly look at the end of the list!"
Upon hearing this, everyone who had been looking at Xiao Ai turned their attention back to the list.
And what they saw was, once again, astonishing.
First, second place, unexpectedly, was Shen Qing, the most terrifying in cultivation. She had not secured the top spot.
Below was first place: Ye Yun, Current Divine Seat: Star God Tier!
The moment the list appeared, the gazes of three figures from the top three Level Nine Great Worlds simultaneously fixed on the first-place position.
As for the Divine Dome Domain, it erupted in a frenzy in every sense of the word.
"What's going on? What does this ranking mean???"
"Exactly! Who compiled this? Even if the Great Dao himself came, the first place should belong to our Creator God!"
"This first place, actually taken by a Star God, where did this ant come from!"
"A mere Star God, how strong can their talent be to deserve first place!"
"This is so infuriating, don't let me encounter that guy, or I'll slap him to death with one palm!"
The latter part of these exclamations was undoubtedly directed at Ye Yun, who was in first place.
After all, looking at the previous lists, their Divine Dome Domain had taken first place, and they had expected to dominate this one as well.
Instead, they were snatched the top spot by a Star God, leaving them feeling extremely dissatisfied and annoyed!
Some even began to doubt if the person who compiled this list had lost their mind to provide such an unfair ranking.
Of course, many still believed the list was accurate and marveled at what kind of monster the person in first place was.
"Truly amazing, a Star God with such talent, could they be under fifty years old?"
"This is a Star God regardless, reaching it at fifty is too exaggerated!"
"I agree, I recall our Creator God Xue Mian took seventy-five years to reach the Star God level."
"Same here, I estimate that person is around sixty years old."
In the Drifting Snow Domain, discussions about the age of the person in first place were rampant.
It can be said that at this moment, the name Ye Yun had become famous throughout the entire Grand Thousand Worlds.
