I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 626, along with history books, will be passed down forever.
It was in this atmosphere that the final selection for the Grandmaster Ranking finally began amidst a clamor and great attention.

If the Pride Ranking and the Grandmaster Ranking represent the pinnacle of the present and the future, then...

The Grandmaster Ranking represents the pinnacle of human civilization, standing at the truly extraordinary peak!
Unlike the lengthy competition of the previous two lists, the Grandmaster list is much simpler!

After all, the number of people participating in the Grandmaster Ranking is only in their early twenties.

The eight top Grandmasters at the eighth level of the Transcendent Realm—Nangong Hong, Ji Xuan, Yuan Liren, Sikong Yang, Mills, Ji Ruxue, Liu Xiaoyan, and Qingyue—went directly to the final competition.

The remaining fourteen Grandmasters at the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm will compete for the two remaining spots in the finals.

However, among these fourteen people, only Wei Lingjun, Bai Zhengyu, Feng Hao, and Payne, all grandmasters whose martial arts realm has reached the peak of Dark Force, are truly qualified to compete for the last two spots!

As for the other ten grandmasters, they either followed the path of laws, such as Cecilia, Xiao Yu, and Roland.

Either their martial arts level is only at the late stage of Dark Force.

Compared to the previous four, they are basically not a strong competitor.

Unless one of them can integrate a certain artistic conception with martial arts, or can simultaneously control two completely different artistic concepts to form a combined force.

Who do you think will take first place on this Grandmaster ranking?

[Is that even a question? It's definitely the Martial Grandmaster! Who could be stronger than a Martial Grandmaster?]

[That's not necessarily true. I think the Wind Sect has a good chance too!]

[Bullshit! I heard that Wu Zong broke through to the ninth level of the Mortal Transformation Realm a long time ago, and his martial arts realm has even reached the Transformation Realm. Although Feng Zong is strong, he is definitely no match for Wu Zong.]

[You might not know this, but when the rebellion broke out at Origin Academy, Wu Zong single-handedly held off two Grandmasters clad in Origin Energy Armor!]

I've heard about this too. It's said that the Martial Sect's strength had already reached an extremely exaggerated level back then.

【Energy Armor? What's that?】

Some people were completely bewildered; they were extraordinary individuals at the Innate Realm, yet they had never heard of it.

You can think of it like powered armor in science fiction novels; wearing source energy armor greatly enhances your strength.

[From what I know, a seventh-level Transcendent Grandmaster, when equipped with Source Energy Armor, can even rival a ninth-level Transcendent.]

【Seriously? That's ridiculous!】

[That's how exaggerated it is; you can imagine just how strong a Martial Grandmaster truly is.]

Even before the competition started, countless extraordinary individuals were already discussing who would win first place.

However, most people still feel that Nangong Hong has a better chance.

Over the past twenty years, Nangong Hong has not made many moves, but each time he has demonstrated extremely strong abilities.

His brilliance was so dazzling that it overshadowed all the other geniuses of his time.

Even Ji Xuan, who was equally talented, was always considered to be slightly inferior.

In some ways, Nangong Hong is even more real and iconic than the Origin Ancestor.

For most people, the progenitor is a symbol that lives in legends and textbooks, an unattainable, almost godlike existence.

His level of power is so high that ordinary people cannot even understand it and can only worship him.

His power is more like a "background setting," the cornerstone upon which extraordinary civilizations can survive.

But it lacks that tangible, quantifiable feeling that can be pursued.

Nangong Hong, however, is different.

He was the Martial Master, the pioneer and founder of martial arts.

You may not know Ji Xuan, or you may not know Li Qingxuan, the dean of the Origin Academy.

But the names of Yuan Zu and Nangong Hong are known to everyone.

From introductory martial arts textbooks for junior high school students to top-tier martial arts courses at extraordinary universities.

Whenever martial arts are involved, Nangong Hong is an inescapable source.

same.

He is also the world's number one who has truly been active in the public eye for the past twenty years, and the goal that all those who come after him strive to catch up with or even surpass.

It is a clear and majestic peak in the hearts of all extraordinary people.

As long as human civilization continues, his name will be passed down eternally along with history books.

Therefore, almost everyone believed that he would get first place.

Even among the top grandmasters, no one expected any unexpected events to occur.

His strength was enough to make everyone despair.

The top two spots should be pretty much decided. Who do you think will be third?

[Hmm, the Blade Sect and Sword Sect should both have a chance! The other Grandmasters are probably a little weaker than them.]

[The main reason is that Dean Li didn't participate; otherwise, he should have come in third place.]

There was generally no disagreement on this point.

The third place will most likely be Yuan Liren of the Blade Sect and Sikong Yang of the Sword Sect.

As for Li Qingxuan, it was no surprise that someone of his status wouldn't participate in the competition for the Grandmaster Ranking.

He was one of the first to follow the Origin Ancestor on the path to transcendence.

He was also one of the founders of the Extraordinary.

It's really not a good idea to compete with others.

Getting first place is fine, but not getting it would be awkward!
The masters of the Origin Academy knew that Li Qingxuan was only at the eighth level of the Transcendent Realm, so he was naturally no match for Nangong Hong.

……

After a while.

The Grandmaster Ranking competition has finally begun.

The first round is also a points-based competition. Each person will play five rounds, and the two with the highest scores will advance.

However, unlike before, the venue for the Grandmaster competition is incredibly vast.

Each competition area spans several kilometers.

As for the audience area, there weren't many seats, only a few hundred.

This is also to ensure sufficient safety.

After all, any grandmaster is extremely powerful, and the scope of their battles is very large.

Moreover, ordinary people are not even qualified to watch battles at this level.

You have to reach at least the Grandmaster level to even begin to see a little bit.

To truly see clearly, one must reach the level of a grandmaster.

Therefore, most people are still watching the games online.

In order to broadcast the Grandmaster match live, the Federation of People's Associations used the most advanced energy technology and ultra-high-speed photography technology, combined with AI to analyze and slow down the playback in real time.

This is the only way to present the scenes on the field that exceed the visual limits of ordinary people to hundreds of millions of viewers in a relatively clear way.

The costs involved far exceed those of the Prodigy Ranking and Grandmaster Ranking.

Even so, we can only get a general idea.

There's no way around it, the Grandmaster's speed is just too fast!

They can reach speeds of at least 100 meters per second, and some can even reach 150 meters per second.

There's simply no way to parse it in real time.

【here we go! 】

[Wei Lingjun versus Feng Yuanshan!]

[Baek Jung-woo vs. Roland!]

[Feng Hao vs. Garcia!]

Payne to Ye Mengzhu.

In the audience, hundreds of master-level spectators immediately focused their attention.

The matchup list was clearly displayed on the light screen.

The moment the electronic sound faded, the battle was about to begin.

The area where Wei Lingjun and the other person were located.

Feng Yuanshan knew that there was a huge gap between him and his opponent. He unleashed his full power at the start, pushing out both palms with tremendous force towards Wei Lingjun.

A terrifying shockwave instantly spread outwards.

However, Wei Lingjun's figure seemed to have no substance, leaving several distorted afterimages on the ground, actually gliding past the edge of Feng Yuanshan's palm strike.

next moment.

He appeared behind Feng Yuanshan as if by teleportation, and with a flick of his toes, kicked forward sharply.

"puff!"

Feng Yuanshan's qi and blood defenses were pierced like paper, and a bloody hole instantly appeared on his shoulder. The force penetrated his body, making half of his body numb!

He turned around in shock, only to see Wei Lingjun's figure gracefully retreating into the distance.

"I surrender!"

Feng Yuanshan sighed.

Although both of them are Grandmasters at the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm, the gap between them is still too great!

He was injured with just one strike.

There is no chance of winning if we continue fighting.

"Concession!"

Wei Lingjun smiled slightly.

He knew when to stop and didn't embarrass the other party.

Otherwise, if the other party holds a grudge, it will create more trouble.

This is Wei Lingjun's principle of conduct.

Try not to offend others without affecting your own interests.

Even if this person is just an ordinary person.

As for what if they really hold a grudge?

There's no other way but to send them to reincarnation.
"So strong!"

Fang Yuanhang's gaze narrowed slightly.

He knew very little about Wei Lingjun.

This person can be said to be the most mysterious of all the Grandmasters in the Origin Academy.

He rarely participates in academy affairs and has never been heard of fighting with anyone.

I never expected its strength to be so strange and unpredictable.

The power that Feng Yuanshan just unleashed was almost the same as his.

But he was completely powerless to resist Wei Lingjun.

If he were to go up there, he would probably end up in a similar situation to Feng Yuanshan.

"Is this the strength of a top-tier Grandmaster at the seventh level of the Mortal Transformation Realm?"
