It rained in the early morning in Shendu, thousands of kilometers away from Jiangzhou.
Outside the gate of the Martial Arts Academy, there is a list. The list is made of wood. Under the wind and the sun, the paint on the surface has almost completely peeled off. It is obviously a long time ago.
On the list, there is a row of red paper with their names written on them side by side.
There is some red paper, which has not been changed for a long time, and almost completely faded.
Suddenly, two oil-paper umbrellas came from a distance. One was old and the other was young. They were all armed with weapons. They were obviously martial artists.
The two came to the list, and the young man looked at the humble list in front of him and said incredulously, "Is this the legendary list of Heaven's Path?"
The old man stroked his beard, glanced over the lists, and said with a smile, "When the old man came here for the first time, he was even more surprised than you."
The several lists on this list are the Grand Master List, the First Grade List, the Tianjiao List, the Qianlong List, the Hongyan List that have spread all over the world...
All the lists are based on this.
It is said that these lists have been in existence for more than a thousand years, and their accuracy has been proven for countless years.
The young man looked at the list in front of him. It was ordinary red paper, and every name inscribed was a well-known powerhouse. This contrast made him wonder what it was like in his heart.
The old man said with emotion, "My generation of warriors, if they can keep their names on the list, they will live their lives in vain."
The young man couldn't help but imagine how beautiful it would be if he could one day make his name appear on one of the lists. Thinking of this, my blood boils.
However, judging from the degree of fading of the red paper above, the latest list is the Hongyan List, which is almost a year old.
The oldest, of course, is the Grand Master List, and the people on it are all peerless powerhouses in the supernatural power realm. It hasn't been replaced in years.
While the two were talking, suddenly, an old man limped over with an umbrella in one hand and a bucket in the other, with a piece of red paper under his shoulder.
Crash.
The old man suddenly tore off one of the lists.
"What are you doing—"
The young man just accepted the sacred list in his heart, but the reality is so simple. When he saw that someone dared to destroy the list, he couldn't help but get angry. Before he finished speaking, the old man next to him covered his mouth.
The old man said excitedly, "Shut up, this is the list changer. The list has changed."
What?
The young man couldn't help being stunned. He never thought that the person in charge of changing the rankings would be a lame old man.
Wait a minute, what did he just say, changed the list?
The young man raised his head abruptly, and found that what the old man tore off just now was the Qianlong Bang.
On the Qianlong list, those who are under the age of 30 with the highest cultivation level are only listed in the top 20.
Those who can make it to the list, without exception, are the cultivation bases of rank three or above.
The top five, or even the second rank.
All the people on the Qianlong list are the most outstanding talented warriors in the world today. Although it is not as dazzling as those peerless figures on the Tianjiao list, it is not too bad.
In fact, the number of supernatural powers from the Qianlong list is more than that of the Tianjiao list.
If I remember correctly, it was more than a year ago that the Qianlong list changed.
In Jianghu, there are three lists that attract the most attention, one is the Hongyan list, the second is the Tianjiao list, and the third is the Qianlong list.
Peerless beauty is liked by everyone, but just wanting to see each other is as difficult as going to the sky.
The Tianjiao list is full of legends, but basically they are in retreat, and they rarely show up in the arena. There are only legends left about them.
Only the characters on the Qianlong list, several of them are quite active, their deeds are often circulated, and the popularity is also the highest.
The young man knew all the characters on the Qianlong List like the back of his hand, and none of the 20 people above had reached the age of 30.
That is to say, this time the ranking was changed, not because someone was old enough to fill the place behind. Instead, someone surpassed the characters on the list and made it to the Qianlong list.
Thinking of this, the young man suddenly became excited, and stared at the old man who was in charge of changing the list, hoping to see who the new list was.
However, the old man moved slowly, picked up the brush, first brushed a layer of paste on the list, and then posted the new list.
One old man and one young man couldn't wait to take a step forward. They all looked up from the last one, all of them were familiar names, and everyone's names were followed by one.
When I saw the tenth place, it was still the ninth place before.
The shock in their hearts is indescribable.
For the first time on the list, he actually dropped into the top ten. How is this possible?
Finally, in seventh place, they saw an unfamiliar name.
"Seventh, Gu Yang, from Jiangzhou."
The short eight words caused the two to have a storm surge in their hearts.
Generally speaking, on the Qianlong list, their origins and origins will be written, as if they came from a certain family or a certain sect.
They had never seen such a brief introduction.
This means that even the Red Mansion knows very little about this person, and even doesn't know his origin.
Too mysterious.
The rain gradually stopped. In front of the list, another person came. After realizing that the list was changed, he took a look and left in a hurry.
In a short while, more and more people are in front of the list.
As for the change of the Qianlong list, as well as the name Gu Yang, it has also begun to spread, and it will not be long before it will spread throughout the rivers and lakes.
……
In Pingjun City, the first person to receive this news was the county governor's office, and the imperial court's newspaper was the fastest.
"Gu Yang?"
When Wu Huai, the county governor, saw that the name of the newest person on the Qianlong list was actually this name, his eyes narrowed, and he saw that he was from Jiangzhou.
Wouldn't it be him?
It was only a month ago that Gu Yang defeated Tian Fei with one sword, and Wu Huai still had an impression.
But, isn't he a fourth rank?
Why did he suddenly become a third-rank, and he even ranked seventh on the Hidden Dragon Ranking!
Rank 3 and Rank 4 differ only by one realm, but the weight is completely different.
The seventh place on the Qianlong list means that this person has infinite potential and will be able to achieve a first-rank in the future, and even hope to achieve supernatural powers.
He hurriedly called his most trusted master over and discussed with him.
……
The second person who got the news was the Fang family. After all, it was an old family. Although it has declined, the news channel is still there.
"No. 7 on the Hidden Dragon List?"
When Xue E saw the news, she was stunned, her first reaction was, "It's not the same name, right?"
Beside her, it was the old woman who shook her head and said, "It's unlikely."
There are people with the same name and surname in the world, but it is almost impossible to have such a high level of cultivation.
What's more, it is stated on the Qianlong list that Gu Yang is from Jiangzhou, how can there be so many coincidences?
Xue E swallowed her saliva with some difficulty, "The last time we met, he was clearly a fourth-rank only. Could it be that he was ranked seventh on the Qianlong Ranking as soon as he broke through to the third-rank..."
The old woman said with a solemn face, "I'm afraid this person is not practicing ordinary exercises."
"You mean, peerless magic?"
