Jiang Ye amassed over five thousand points in the trial, enough to help the Crimson Divine Race recover its ranking. As the first phase concluded, a new ranking board appeared, revealing the top participants and their scores. Jiang Ye secured the 450th position. The challenge tournament began, with Qing Hua of the Qing Clan immediately challenging Jiang Ye. In a stunning display, Jiang Ye defeated Qing Hua with a single move, shocking the entire Huanglong Divine Hall and solidifying his rank.

"Qing Hua was defeated in one move?"

"Something’s wrong, this Ye Jiang is definitely not just at the Mid-period of the Fourth Tier." In the Qinggu faction, Qinggu’s eyes showed a hint of shock.

Jiang Ye’s moves in recent encounters always brought unexpected results.

This made an ominous suspicion faintly arise in Qinggu’s mind.

"It can’t be."

"Has this guy already reached the Tier Four Peak?" Qinggu was startled.

Impossible!

No matter what, it’s impossible to reach that level in three years.

"No rush."

"It’s only just started, let’s watch a bit longer," Qinggu muttered: "This Ye Jiang is most likely already in the Late Period of the Fourth Tier, truly a prodigy."

By now, he had completely put away any sense of contempt.

Unexpectedly, a trace of admiration arose in his heart.

In the Huanglong Civilization, where powerhouses are revered, even Qinggu who is self-assured is no exception.

...

At the scene of the arena challenge tournament, an eerie silence descended.

Qing Hua’s defeated figure still lingered in everyone’s sight.

Jiang Ye stood in the center of the arena, black clothes fluttering, expression composed, as unmovable as a mountain.

No one dared to step onto the stage.

The rank of four hundred and fifty became an invisible barrier.

Challenging him meant possibly losing in one move, becoming a laughing stock.

Challenging others at least offered some room to maneuver.

"Is no one going to challenge?" Venerable Bai’s voice broke the silence.

He scanned the audience with a touch of authority.

Moments later, a figure finally leapt onto the stage, but not to challenge Jiang Ye.

"I challenge the four hundred and forty-ninth rank!"

As the voice fell, the battle erupted instantly.

This time, it wasn’t a one-move defeat.

Powerhouses of the mid to late period of the Fourth Tier clashed, supernatural powers collided, laws roared, the sky was turned upside down.

The atmosphere in the hall finally became lively again.

Challenges continued one after another.

Some succeeded, rankings were swapped, spirits soared.

Some failed, left dejected, faces forlorn.

The Crimson Divine Race’s camp quickly became the focal point.

The Qinggu geniuses, as if agreed upon, frequently challenged the powerhouses of the Crimson Divine Race.

"I challenge Chi Ruyi!"

A Qinggu powerhouse of the late period of the Fourth Tier jumped onto the stage.

The ’Chi Ruyi’ whose name was called narrowed his eyes and leapt to fight.

"Boom!"

Flames and green light clashed, the explosion deafening.

The two fought fiercely for a hundred moves, eventually Chi Ruyi narrowly won by one move.

"Won!" Cheers erupted from the Crimson Divine Race’s camp.

Chi Ruyi wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth, his face pale but determined.

But the good times didn’t last.

In the next match, another powerhouse of the Crimson Divine Race was defeated by a Qinggu genius by a small margin.

"Go Qinggu!"

Cheering erupted continuously from the Qinggu camp.

In the ensuing time, the clash between the Crimson Divine Race and the Qinggu reached a fever pitch.

Challenge, respond, challenge again, respond again.

Victories and defeats were evenly split.

The powerhouses of the Crimson Divine Race, each fought with all their might, putting their lives on the line.

The Qinggu geniuses, strong and ruthless, pressed forward relentlessly.

The fifty-fifty situation was maintained with great difficulty.

Everyone watched closely.

This generation of the Crimson Divine Race lacked geniuses, achieving this was already the limit.

If it weren’t for Jiang Ye previously earning an astonishing fifty-five hundred points in the trial formation, the Crimson Divine Race’s ranking would have long been overtaken by the Qinggu.

...

"This isn’t a solution." Red Light stood at the front of the camp, frowning.

She was well aware that this balance was extremely fragile.

Once one side achieves a decisive victory or defeat, the balance will be completely broken.

And this moment came swiftly.

"Red Light."

An icy voice resounded through the hall.

Qinggu stood, his figure swayed like a falling leaf, landing on the arena.

He wore a green robe, surrounded by Grass and Wood law, yet carrying an aura of agedness.

"Red Light, I challenge you!" Qinggu’s fighting spirit soared.

The hall instantly fell silent.

Everyone knew this battle would determine the rankings of the Crimson Divine Race and the Qinggu.

This was the most crucial battle!

Red Light took a deep breath, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.

She adjusted her red clothes and her figure, like lightning, leapt onto the arena.

"Qinggu, you couldn’t resist finally." Red Light’s voice carried a trace of coldness.

"Three years sharpening a sword." Qinggu grinned: "Today, I will break your suppression!"

"Then try it." Red Light’s flames surged dramatically.

[Burning World!]

In an instant, flames raged above the arena.

Golden flames, like nine suns traversing the sky, scorched the void, even the air twisted.

This was Red Light’s [World-Burning Law], already reaching the Fourth Tier’s limit.

Qinggu’s expression tensed, not daring to be careless.

"Life and Death!"

He waved his hand, green light blossomed around him.

Countless green vines emerged from the ground, rushing towards the flames.

Meanwhile, a strange force extended towards Red Light’s flames.

That was the power of the [Life and Death Law].

One withers, one flourishes, life endless.

It can bolster oneself, exponentially increase strength, and cause opponents’ powers to instantly wither.

This is the upper law of the Grass and Wood Law, extremely bizarre.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"

Flames scorched the green vines, which continually withered yet continually regenerated.

Red Light’s flames visibly dimmed at a rapid pace.

"It’s useless." Red Light coldly shouted.

The [World-Burning Law], is naturally a counter to the Grass and Wood Law.

No matter how strong Qinggu’s Life and Death Law is, in the face of absolute flames, it has to bow its head.

In countless past duels, Qinggu consistently lost at this point.

Qinggu smiled faintly, a trace of cunning flickering in his eyes.

"Red Light, you think in these three years, I’ve made no progress?"
