Douluo Continent: Breaking the Million-Year Barrier, the Golden Ranking Exposes Me

Chapter 82 The Unwilling Brother and Sister
Shrek Academy, Poseidon Pavilion.

After listening to Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er's thrilling experiences and discussing preliminary strategies for dealing with the Holy Spirit Cult.

Everyone's attention was inevitably drawn to the golden list that lit up again.

Upon seeing the words "Dream of the Mortal World," Xuanzi offered an objective assessment.

"The Zhu Qing Ice Toad, a mutated martial soul, is indeed quite something. With its dual attributes of ice and poison, it is extremely troublesome among control-type martial souls."

"This young girl has broken through to the Soul King level at such a young age and is also proficient in soul tools. The Sun Moon Empire is really willing to spend a lot of money to cultivate its offspring."

Yan Shaozhe nodded slightly.

As the dean of the Martial Soul Department, he has a natural interest in various powerful Martial Souls.

"Meng Hongchen's martial soul is of extremely high quality, possessing both control and offensive characteristics. Moreover, she is said to be quite calm and composed, quite different from her impulsive brother Xiao Hongchen. Ranking her fourteenth is fair."

"only……"

He changed the subject, looking at Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, his tone carrying a hint of seriousness.

"Even she only ranked fourteenth, which shows that the top thirteen are probably all monsters."

"Yuhao, Dong'er, you need to be prepared that your rankings may not be as high as expected."

Xian Lin'er chimed in, her eyes thoughtful: "The criteria for judging the Golden List seem to be getting clearer and clearer. It doesn't just look at the current soul power level or the quality of the martial soul."

"It seems that more emphasis is placed on potential, mentality, the degree to which one's own abilities are developed, and even a certain kind of... 'uniqueness'."

"Although Zhu Qingbingchan of Meng Hongchen is strong, she may be slightly inferior to those who have not yet been announced in terms of 'uniqueness' and 'future growth potential'."

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er exchanged a glance, both seeing the pressure in each other's eyes.

They were originally quite confident in their talents, especially after experiencing many extraordinary adventures.

But the rankings on the gold list repeatedly challenged their understanding.

Even geniuses like Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen failed to make it into the top ten, so where would they rank themselves?

Moreover, the attack they had just suffered made them realize even more.

This list of honors is both a glory and a death sentence.

Ontology.

Du Busi glanced at Meng Hongchen's illusory martial soul and curled his lip: "Fancy and mutated martial soul, so what? It's mixed and impure! It's not as practical as my original martial soul unlocking its own potential!"

"However, it's not an insult to her martial spirit that this little girl can rank fourteenth."

He was more interested in Ji Juechen, who had been on the list before, because that was the kind of person he admired.

Folk spirit masters and various small factions.

"The Crimson Ice Toad, that sounds amazing!"

"It's really not easy for a control-type Soul Master to reach this ranking!"

"It seems that the younger generation of the Sun Moon Empire is indeed not to be underestimated."

"I wonder when our country's geniuses will be on the list..."

The Soul Masters on the mainland were abuzz with discussion.

We gained a more intuitive understanding of the young forces of the Sun Moon Empire.

Inside Mingde Hall.

Meng Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing her name and ranking.

But her delicate brows furrowed slightly, clearly indicating that she was not entirely satisfied with this ranking.

Amidst the clamor and everyone's thoughts, the list of successful candidates did not keep everyone waiting for long.

The light converges once more, and the information about the thirteenth place will soon be revealed.

The expectant gazes of the crowd were fixed intently on the light screen in the air.

However, the list of winners was immediately shaken once again!

Sun and Moon Empire, Royal Palace.

Jing Hongchen watched as her grandson's and granddaughter's names appeared one after another on the list of successful candidates.

However, there was not much joy on his face; instead, his brows were furrowed.

Xu Tianran's face was even more gloomy.

He tapped his fingers hard on the armrest of the dragon throne, making a dull sound.

"The fourteenth...the thirteenth..."

Xu Tianran's voice was filled with suppressed anger.

"The two peerless talents nurtured by my Sun Moon Empire with all its resources can't even make it into the top ten?"

"Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen's talents cannot possibly be ranked so low. Is this Golden List truly biased?"

Jing Hongchen quickly bowed, her tone bitter: "Your Highness, please calm down. The Golden List is unfathomable, and the judging criteria may be beyond our comprehension."

"The continent is vast, and the number of hidden geniuses is probably more than we imagine, and this genius list also includes the soul beast race..."

He felt equally frustrated and resentful.

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen are his greatest pride, carrying the hopes of Mingdetang and the Hongchen family.

He originally thought that with Xiao Hongchen's talent, he had a good chance of making it into the top five or even the top three.

But they didn't even make it into the top ten!
How could he accept this?

Mingde Hall.

"boom!"

Xiao Hongchen slammed his fist hard on the expensive laboratory table, and the hard metal surface dented instantly.

His handsome face was contorted with anger.

Thirteenth? I, Laughing at the Mortal World, am only ranked thirteenth?

He growled, his eyes filled with disbelief and raging fury.

"Huo Yuhao! Wang Dong'er! Their names haven't even appeared yet! Am I, Xiao Hongchen, inferior to them?"

He always regarded Huo Yuhao as his biggest rival, believing that he was by no means inferior to Huo Yuhao in terms of martial soul, soul tool, or talent.

But now, his ranking on the honor roll is like a bucket of cold water poured over his head.

Meng Hongchen stood to the side, her pretty face also full of disappointment and resentment, and she grabbed her brother's arm.

"Brother, calm down. We don't even know the criteria for judging this list yet..."

"Don't understand? What else is unclear!"

Xiao Hongchen shook off his sister's hand, his eyes sharp as knives.

"They simply value those vague concepts of 'potential' or 'opportunity'!"

"I laugh at the world because of my absolute talent and hard work! I refuse to accept this!"

He stared intently at the golden list in the air, gritting his teeth as he said, "Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er... I want to see where you rank!"

"Hmph, next time we meet, I'll personally prove who the real genius is!"

The ranking on the gold list was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, eliciting different reactions from various forces.

The frustration and resentment of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Shrek's vigilance and pressure were quietly accumulating.

More attention, however, is focused on the top twelve, which have not yet been announced.

They speculated about which other hidden geniuses might suddenly emerge.

The situation on the mainland has become even more unpredictable and turbulent because of this list of geniuses.
