2478 Ranking Update Upon hearing that, many academy disciples present turned around and countless gazes landed on Su Zimo at almost the same time. Senior Brother Su destroyed Absolute Thunder City of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom singlehandedly? Everyone had different expressions. Some were surprised, some were shocked and some were skeptical… “That… can’t be, right?” “Although Senior Brother Su has a feud with Prince Yuan Zuo, he’s only a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal. How could he have headed to the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom alone to kill Prince Yuan Zuo and incinerate a city?” “Even if Senior Brother Su has the ability to destroy Absolute Thunder City, how did he escape from the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom?” Initially, Ming Zhe, Guo Yuan and the others were about to attack Su Zimo. However, they were secretly alarmed when they heard the news and did not dare to act rashly with wary expressions. Although everyone could not believe it either, such an important piece of news should not have been fabricated. If that was true and Su Zimo could destroy Absolute Thunder City singlehandedly and kill hundreds of Heaven Immortal experts, the group of them would not be enough to deal with him! This also meant that Su Zimo’s threat earlier on was not a bluff. A disciple of the academy asked with a frown, “Is this for real?” Junior Brother Zhao nodded hurriedly. “It’s absolutely true. News of it has already spread in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain!” 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮 “Why are you holding the Heaven Ranking Prediction?” Another person asked. Junior Brother Zhao said, “Senior Brother Su became famous after that single battle and is already on the Heaven Ranking Prediction!” “What’s his rank?” “17!” Many disciples of the academy were shocked. As a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal, he was ranked 17 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction! Apart from Fang Qingyun, Su Zimo was the second highest ranked Heaven Immortal in Heaven and Earth Academy and was even above Yan Bingying! What was even more ironic was that the number one of the inner sect of the academy, Fang Qingyun, who was ranked 10 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction, was now covered in blood and his hair was disheveled. He was helpless in Su Zimo’s hands. Even Su Zimo was surprised when he heard the ranking, let alone others. Apart from Prince Yuan Zuo who was on the Heaven Ranking Prediction, there were no other top-tier Heaven Immortal experts in Absolute Thunder City. Although the commotion caused by that battle was not small, it could not reflect anything. Under normal circumstances, any one of the paragons who could be ranked in the top 70 of the Heaven Ranking Prediction should possess the same capabilities. It was just that none of them had the guts to do what he did. Initially, Su Zimo thought that his rank on the Heaven Ranking Prediction would not exceed 60 after that battle. To think that he would now be ranked 17 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction! Yan Bingying composed herself and frowned slightly, saying in confusion, “Even if Senior Brother Su destroyed Absolute Thunder City, his ranking can’t be so high, right?” “Senior Sister Yan is right.” Junior Brother Zhao said, “The reason why Senior Brother Su is ranked 17 is because of another battle.” Pausing for a moment, Junior Brother Zhao said hesitantly, “Yes… to be precise, that can’t exactly be considered a battle.” Everyone was at a loss. “Reflect the latest Heaven Ranking Prediction in your hands in midair and show us!” Ming Zhe said in a deep voice. Junior Brother Zhao hurriedly cast a spell and unrolled the newly produced Heaven Ranking Prediction. He reflected the contents in midair and it was extremely clear. Everyone took a rough glance. The initial Heaven Ranking Prediction was released not long ago and not much had changed in this version. The most obvious was that Prince Yuan Zuo was already removed from the Heaven Ranking Prediction. As for the 17th spot on the Heaven Ranking Prediction, it had indeed been changed to Su Zimo’s name! “Name: Su Zimo.” “Level: Grade 6 Heaven Immortal.” “Identity: Inner sect disciple of Heaven and Earth Academy, successor of Astral Sect’s secret skill and successor of the Jade Pure Jade Manual.” After the confrontation at Cangyun Mountain, it was no longer a secret that Su Zimo possessed the Jade Pure Jade Manual. “Battle Record: A thousand years ago, when he was a Grade 5 Heaven Immortal, he used a time divine power and defeated the number one Heaven Immortal of Langfeng City in the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain.” “After cultivating to become a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal, he exited seclusion and infiltrated Absolute Thunder City alone, killing Prince Yuan Zuo and hundreds of Heaven Immortal experts. He burned Absolute Thunder City to the ground and escaped unscathed.” To be fair, in terms of his battle records, there were only two battles that were not eye-catching. Many experts on the Heaven Ranking Prediction had at least a dozen battle records alone. Some of them even had a hundred battles with tens of thousands of words written densely—it was extremely shocking. Compared to the top 20 Heaven Immortals, Su Zimo’s achievements were far inferior. In fact, he was slightly weaker than Yan Bingying who was ranked 43. Many disciples of the academy frowned with puzzled expressions, not knowing how Su Zimo could be ranked 17. Everyone continued browsing. The final part was the Divine Firmament Palace’s evaluation of Su Zimo by the Perfected Immortals who managed the Heaven Ranking. Unexpectedly, the evaluation section was extremely detailed and took up a lot of space—it far surpassed other cultivators! “Evaluation: This lad was already famous when he was an Earth Immortal and obtained the top of the Earth Ranking. He has immense potential and many trump cards. He has no obvious weaknesses in terms of divine powers, Dharmic arts and melee combat.” “He’s in control of the Heaven and Earth Slaying Sword Arts, a sound domain secret skill that’s similar to a dragon roar and the True Dragon Nine Flashes. He specializes in a divine power secret skill that can increase one’s strength and knows the Exalted Mystic Spirit Big Dipper True Sutra. His Essence Spirit is extremely strong and far surpasses his peers. Furthermore, he has mastered many Essence Spirit secret skills.” “Although this lad displayed his powerful combat strength of the Heaven Immortal realm after the two battles in Absolute Thunder City and Langfeng City, his cultivation realm isn’t high and he’s only a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal. Therefore, the upper limit of his Heaven Ranking Prediction won’t be too high.” In the first version of the Heaven Ranking Prediction, it was precisely because Yun Ting was a Grade 8 Heaven Immortal and had not cultivated to the peak of the Heaven Immortal realm that he was ranked third. In the Heaven Ranking Prediction’s ranking, comprehensive strength was evaluated and cultivation realm was an extremely important criterion. The evaluation given by the Divine Firmament Palace was not over yet and everyone continued reading. “However, in the vicinity of Cangyun Mountain, this lad managed to avoid Jue Wuying’s fatal attack and survive. This is not considered as a battle so it’s not recorded in the battle records.” “If not for that assassination attempt, this lad’s ranking should be between 65 and 70. However, because he avoided this assassination attempt, all of us think that he should be in the top 20 of the Heaven Ranking!” The Divine Firmament Palace’s evaluation of Su Zimo only ended here. The Perfected Immortals of the Divine Firmament Palace roughly recounted the reason for the ranking. However, many disciples of the academy were still confused. “Who is Jue Wuying?” Many inner sect disciples of the academy did not know who Jue Wuying was nor did they understand how his ranking could be raised so much after avoiding an assassination attempt! Someone was speechless. “Jue Wuying, one of the three great sword immortals of the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain. The other two are Chunfeng Jian of Imperial Wind Temple and Senior Brother Yue Hua of our academy.” “Think about it. If Senior Brother Yue Hua attacked you, what are the chances of you surviving?” At that point, everyone gradually realized why the Divine Firmament Palace had such a high evaluation of this assassination attempt that was not in the battle records! An assassination attempt raised Su Zimo’s ranking on the Heaven Ranking Prediction by a full 50 spots! “That’s not all.” Another person said, “Jue Wuying, also known as the Shadowless Sword, is the most terrifying assassin among the Perfected Immortals of the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain!” “The sword is invisible and silent. Once the Shadowless Sword strikes, even a Paradise Void Perfected Immortal will most likely die!”
