Best Young Master

Chapter 902: Chapter 794: Unintentionally Planting a Willow, It Grows Into Shade (Supplementary Update 3)

How did Ye Fan do it?

No answers.

At this moment, whether it was the cultivators watching the contest in the canyon, the strong people from the War God Alliance in the sky, or even Yan and the heads of six ancient forces like Xu Tianqi, all were silent.

At this moment, the vast Bei Hai Canyon, including Chu Xuanji, everyone’s mood was unsettled; it was like riding a roller coaster, tense and thrilling.

At the beginning, the Six Great Geniuses showed strong power, firmly holding the top six positions, which was not unexpected—if they couldn’t secure the top six, that would be surprising.

It was Xue Chou who truly shocked everyone, previously unknown, he surged in the points shortly after entering, quickly closing in on the Six Great Geniuses.

Xue Chou only amazed and puzzled everyone for a while, but Ye Fan brought everyone unimaginable shock!

Indeed...

Shock!

Before the contest started, Ye Fan was undaunted by the Six Supreme Geniuses, nearly getting into a fight, and even claimed arrogantly for them to gang up on him.

However, after entering the Holy Land, he remained silent, even lagging far behind some ordinary cultivators, leading people to believe he was afraid of the Six Great Geniuses’ hunt, using the rules of the Holy Land to save his life.

However—

Just when most people thought Ye Fan was avoiding hunting mutant beasts to escape the Six Great Geniuses’ pursuit, Ye Fan explosively struck, killing four mutant beasts in one shot, his points soared, taking the seventh place.

At this point, the Six Supreme Geniuses were deeply stimulated by Ye Fan’s results, they burst forth wildly, their points surged, quickly distancing themselves from Ye Fan.

Yet, before everyone could catch their breath, Ye Fan began a new wave of eruptions, continuously killing twenty-one Early-Stage War God Level mutant beasts in a short time, with an extremely strong posture, he toppled over the Six Supreme Geniuses, leaping to the top...

Twists and turns, incredible!

This is the best description of all this!

"Those were twenty-one Early-Stage War God Level mutant beasts, not domestic chicks, yet the disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia killed them all within a quarter of an hour, this is simply astounding!"

"Exactly, under the same realm, mutant beasts have stronger offense and defense than human cultivators, it’s extremely difficult even for an ordinary cultivator to slay an Early-Stage War God Level mutant beast, yet he consecutively killed more than twenty-one, how strong must he be?"

"Could he be a Mid-stage War God and snuck into the competition?"

"Impossible, Beihai Holy Land has special rules, non-Early-Stage War God cultivators can’t enter, the one who forced his way in earlier was thrown out, that’s the best proof!"

"Yes, he can’t be a Mid-stage War God, otherwise, it wouldn’t take the Holy Land’s rules to stop him, those strong from the War God Alliance would have stopped him!"

"Not a Mid-stage War God, yet he could consecutively kill twenty-one Early-Stage War God Level mutant beasts within a quarter of an hour...this power already far surpasses the Six Supreme Geniuses, right?"

After a brief silence, discussions resumed, the entire Bei Hai Canyon was like a boiling pot of oil splashed with cold water, it exploded instantly.

Almost every cultivator was talking about Ye Fan’s results. If someone hadn’t tested it before, proving that Mid-stage War God Level cultivators can’t enter the Holy Land, some would even think Ye Fan was intentionally hiding his strength and was already a Mid-stage War God Level master, otherwise it wouldn’t be possible to slay an Early-Stage War God Level mutant beast like slaughtering dogs.

But more people believed that from Ye Fan’s previous performances, his strength completely surpassed Xu Wudao and the other Six Supreme Geniuses!

Surpassed?

For the six leaders of ancient forces, represented by Xu Tianqi, their faces were very serious.

From Ye Fan’s powerful comeback, they could see that Ye Fan’s true strength was no less than their heirs, perhaps even stronger!

Because, in their eyes, even their heirs, wanting to consecutively kill twenty-one mutant beasts within a quarter of an hour, was almost an impossible thing!

"What do you think he did it with?"

On the ancient altar, the Clan Leader of the Luoke Family spoke. If he didn’t know the Investiture of the Gods was inscrutable, he might even think there was a problem with it.

"If I’m not mistaken, he should have burned the Gang Qi Essence," Xu Tianqi voiced his judgment.

"Possible!" The Clan Leader of the Huang Jin Family nodded lightly.

"Consuming Gang Qi Essence and Primordial Qi in a ranking match? That doesn’t make much sense," questioned the Clan Leader of the Elfa Tribe from the African Union.

Since Fa’er focused on cultivating Magic, he practically gave up competing in ranking matches, so he took rankings lightly, but Ye Fan’s actions still shocked him.

However—

Compared to Xu Tianqi and the other five Supreme Strongmen, his shock was slightly less, and he appeared more rational.

"Aside from this, I can’t think of any other possibility. His power alone doing all this? Ha, even our heirs can’t do that, right?" Xu Tianqi frowned.

"I agree with Master Xu Tianqi’s judgment," the Clan Leader of the Ross family from the American Alliance echoed.

Only the current Sect Leader of the Ancient Buddha Sect from the Tianzhu Alliance, Shijia Mo Ye, remained silent, lost in his thoughts.

"Ha, do certain people still believe Xiao Fan was deliberately using the rules to save his life now?"

In the sky, Lv Yuan felt exuberant, as if he had eaten Ginsengfruit.

Not only him, but Cang Bo from the Tian Shan Sword Sect, Killing Emperor Ye Feng, and Sect Leader Wu Shan of the Wu Sect were also smiling.

Originally, they didn’t believe Ye Fan could survive the hunt by the Six Supreme Geniuses, but witnessing Ye Fan’s astounding performance, they suddenly felt all of this wasn’t impossible.

At the same time, they were certain that if Ye Fan survived the Hidden God List Competition this time, with Ye Fan’s talent and cultivation speed, in time, he would absolutely become one of the strongest on this Earth, perhaps even replacing Yan as the strongest!

And their heirs were on good terms with Ye Fan, naturally benefiting in the future!

As Lv Yuan’s words echoed, seeing the smiles on Lv Yuan and the others’ faces, Jiang Yurong had no choice but to accept Ye Fan’s astounding performance, her face unusually grim, as if she had swallowed a fly.

At this moment, she clamped her mouth shut again, silently enduring the humiliation of being publicly ridiculed, while secretly feeling relieved. She was relieved that Ye Fan had provoked the Six Supreme Geniuses, otherwise given enough time, Ye Fan would definitely grow to a point where everyone would find terrifying.

That... would be a disaster for the Jiang Family!

Seeing Jiang Yurong’s mouth clamped tighter than a virgin’s legs, Lv Yuan no longer attacked but turned his gaze to an inconspicuous corner of the canyon, and there he saw Chu Xuanji, always calm, unable to suppress his inner joy, grinning foolishly.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swish!

...

When Lv Yuan looked at Chu Xuanji, the crowd seemed to catch the contagion, turning their gaze towards the elder who once stood on the pinnacle but had fallen from his pedestal.

At this moment, nearly everyone understood why the elder insisted on coming to watch the Hidden God List tournament despite the cold stares and ridicule from the world.

With a disciple like him, what more could one wish for in this life?

...

Just as the entrance to the Holy Land erupted with excitement due to Ye Fan’s actions, deep within the Holy Land, nearly all the contestants noticed the change in the rankings, struck with utter astonishment!

"Oh my, Ye Zi is truly defying the heavens now!"

"Killed twenty-one Early-Stage War God level mutant beasts in succession, this is simply inhuman!"

Deep within the Holy Land, Lv Zhan, Xiao Selang, Ye Hei, and Wu Zi teamed up to kill an Early-Stage War God level mutant beast, and then noticed the change in Ye Fan’s ranking, all were dumbfounded.

Among them, Lv Zhan was the first to snap out of shock, and seemed energized as if injected with vigor.

Defying the heavens, huh?

Ye Hei, Xiao Selang, and Wu Zi answered the question with silence.

"You little rascal, you’re truly full of surprises for your aunt."

At the same time, Chu Ji, who fought alone, was also significantly astonished by Ye Fan’s actions. She then flashed a habitually charming smile that seemed to captivate anyone, leaving a distant cultivator starstruck.

In response, Chu Ji cast an alluring glance at the cultivator and swiftly moved towards the depths of the Holy Land.

From the start of the competition until now, she had been diligently hunting mutant beasts, but limited by her strength, she could never manage to break into the top ten.

This left her quite unwilling!

"Is the miracle once again about to happen?"

Likewise unwilling to be unable to break into the top ten was Olivia.

Originally, her inability to rank in the top ten had left her frustrated, but seeing Ye Fan’s ranking change swept away that frustration, replaced by deep anticipation for Ye Fan’s performance in the finals!

At the same time, Doug, who held onto a seat in the top ten through desperate battles, saw the change in Ye Fan’s ranking and was filled with complex emotions — shock, joy, anticipation, and a touch of loss!

He refrained from commenting on it but clenched his teeth and dashed towards the deepest part of the Holy Land — he had to kill more Early-Stage War God level mutant beasts to ensure he could hold onto a top ten position and secure a place in the finals!

The same was being done by Su Liuli.

Upon seeing the change in Ye Fan’s ranking, she was quite delighted. Along with this joy, she continued to seek the next Early-Stage War God level mutant beast.

Hmm?

The next moment, before she could find another beast, she suddenly sensed a powerful and familiar presence.

Fa’er!

She encountered Fa’er deep within the Holy Land.

"I’m very curious, how did he achieve all this? Was it by burning Gang Qi Essence?"

Fa’er, having seen Su Liuli, directly voiced his doubt.

"You’ll find the answer in the finals!"

Su Liuli replied expressionlessly and swiftly left.

At Fa’er’s words, the corners of his brows twitched as a faint sense of unease appeared in his heart.

Not only Fa’er, but Xu Wudao, Zorro, Anton, Andre, and Mahayana all, upon seeing Ye Fan’s ranking change, collectively believed Ye Fan must have burned Gang Qi Essence, otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve this!

Even so, they were slightly discouraged by the revelation but not dispirited, instead more resolute in their determination to hunt Ye Fan in the finals.

Because if they burned Gang Qi Essence, and their combat power soared, they could achieve the same feat!

Regarding all this, Ye Fan was unaware.

At this moment, he was in a canyon at the deepest part of the Holy Land, surrounded entirely by the corpses of Giant Strength Ants.

Giant Strength Ants. noveldrama

These are a common type of mutant beast in the Ancient Cultivation World, renowned for their superior physical strength.

The canyon Ye Fan was in was the nest of Giant Strength Ants within the Holy Land.

After storming in, Ye Fan unleashed both Magic and Martial Arts, slaughtering wildly, and effortlessly killed all twenty-one Giant Strength Ants within a mere hour.

"The power of Early-Stage War God level mutant beasts is too weak, unable to effectively temper me anymore."

In the canyon, after storing away the beast cores of the twenty-one Giant Strength Ants, Ye Fan checked the leaderboard and upon finding himself ranked first, felt no joy but slightly furrowed his brows.

All this happened simply because he was never concerned with rankings, rather he wanted to use the ranking competition as an opportunity to temper himself and raise his cultivation.

That’s all!
