The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 94 One Man Defeates Yunqiansi
Mr. Chen naturally accepted Gao Cunfeng's invitation.

He was also very curious about who would be the final winner in this last competition.

The main difference is that this reward is somewhat unique.

The competition is too fierce.

We will never give up until we fall.

Those people will surely return covered in wounds.

"Does Elder Chen have any guesses?" Gao Cunfeng asked curiously.

This competition is led by three companies.

Fang Jia, Fang Tiancheng.

Li Jia Li Yuan.

Cheng Ning, a member of the Cheng family.

All three of them are exceptionally strong.

After pondering for a moment, Elder Chen said, "These three families all have their own powerful techniques. The Fang family focuses on physical strength and is extremely strong in close combat."

"The Li family is more supportive, but Li Yuan obtained a superior offensive technique, which complements each other and increases the chances of winning."

"Cheng Ning of the Cheng family is quite strong, with excellent high-grade defense, but lacks offensive capabilities."

"If she can wear those two down, her chances of winning are not small."

After a moment's thought, Old Chen said, "Cheng Ning is too passive. Li Yuan is strong enough that as long as Fang Tiancheng doesn't get too close, he has a better chance of winning."

Gao Cunfeng nodded and said, "That's right. Then it depends on whether Li Yuan or Fang Tiancheng can seize the advantage. Cheng Ning is probably in a difficult position, but after all, it is a three-way competition, and there will definitely be many changes. If she can control these changes, she also has the possibility of standing out."

"However, there are too many people this time, and the outcome is uncertain. If other people are used to consume them, then the result will be different," Elder Chen added.

Gao Cunfeng laughed and said, "Let's see. The more variables there are, the more hope there is. It's getting late, the results should be out soon."

Little Fatty made his way to Qingyun Pavilion.

Then I realized there weren't many familiar faces around.

Soon, he remembered something.

Upon arriving at the location where the list of the Six Pavilions was published, Song Qing was indeed there.

Little Fatty went over and handed over the dried meat, asking, "Is there a story this time?"

"Yes." Song Qing took the dried meat and said, "This time, finally someone has chosen to take me in."

Upon hearing this, the chubby boy was taken aback.

Somewhat incredulous: "Really?"

"Really, they just want me to gather some bad news about Jiang Man as a pledge of loyalty." Song Qing shook his head and sighed, "I have no choice but to refuse."

"You're too naive. You can buy it from Brother Jiang; he'd definitely be happy to." Little Fatty sighed.

Song Qing was taken aback and said, "This will work?"

"It will definitely work," Little Fatty said confidently.

Song Qing shook his head and said, "Forget it. Jiang Man has been kind to me and helped me find opportunities several times, but I just didn't live up to his expectations."

"He is a good person, and I cannot let him down."

"I'll try again after I advance to the fourth level; there might still be a chance."

"If Jiang Man is ranked first among the six pavilions this time, then being in the same courtyard as the number one of the six pavilions would be tempting."

"Furthermore, since my foundation is decent, there is still hope."

"But Fatty, you'd better work hard. You said your family isn't poor, but you still have to try your best to keep things stable."

"If it gets into your hands and you can't hold onto it, that would be bad."

"I'm looking for stability, something relatively easy. The worst that can happen is that I'll go back to the village."

“You’re different. If you’re too useless, your life will plummet in the future.”

"But it's alright. Come find me when the time comes, and I'll give you a meal."

"I'll definitely be an excellent farming cultivator when I go back to the village."

Little Fatty said while eating meat, "You're cursing me like this, should I thank you?"

Song Qing asked with a smile, "Have you been staying up late to practice lately?"

"No, I never cultivate when I go back," Little Fatty replied.

Song Qing stared at the chubby boy's dark circles.

"This?" Little Fatty pointed to his dark circles and said, "My dad wants to find me a wife, and I can't sleep at night because I'm so worried."

As he spoke, Little Fatty gave Song Qing another piece of meat.

The latter took the meat and nodded emphatically: "It is indeed a worrying thing, no wonder you have dark circles under your eyes."

Little Fatty nodded, indicating that he was really worried.

Just then, they suddenly saw a person coming from ahead, who said to the people below, "The Six Pavilions Ranking has been canceled. Go to the central square and check the Yunqian Division Ranking."

Everyone was surprised to hear this.

Why was it canceled?

The crowd that had been waiting moved to the central square.

However, as soon as I arrived, I heard people talking about it.

"Why are you suddenly saying the third floor has a list? Wasn't it always the Yunqiansi list before?"

"I don't know, a third-floor list just appeared out of nowhere."

Such a sound puzzled others.

The Six Pavilions said the rankings have been cancelled, so come here.

People here say the list came out on the third floor.

what happened?

"Is it because the Six Pavilions are no longer worthy of having a list? Only the Third Floor deserves a detailed list?"

"In this competition, with over a hundred people from the Six Pavilions, the disparity is really this great?"

That's what was said, but no one said anything more.

The power of the third floor is well-known.

It's perfectly reasonable that it can't compare.

At this moment, the person who posted the results came to the high platform.

Without the slightest hesitation, the list was posted.

“I’ll start reading from number fifteen,” Little Fatty said excitedly. “You can start reading from number five onwards.”

“Okay,” Song Qing replied immediately.

He was also a little nervous. The list of the Six Pavilions had not been released yet, which meant that he had lost the honor of being the number one in the Six Pavilions, but he could still get into the Cloud Front Division.

This list is more prestigious.

Then Little Fatty immediately landed on the fifteenth spot.

The fifteenth rank of Yunqian Division, Yeming Pavilion, Yang Ling.

Little Fatty was a little surprised. Fifteen was the third in the Sixth Pavilion?
He then continued upwards. The fourteenth rank of Yunqian Division, Tianyuan Pavilion, Cheng Moyang.

This fourteenth place shocked Little Fatty. Was he the first among the previous six pavilions?

What about Brother Jiang?

He immediately checked the thirteenth, twelfth, and eleventh.

No.

Top ten?

Tenth, none.

Ninth, there isn't one either.

"Song Qing, where are you looking?"

"Tenth, Jiang Man is not included."

"I've also seen ten, but Jiang Ge isn't there either."

The two were somewhat worried, as they hadn't gotten any rankings from fifth to fifteenth.

We can't let ourselves be pushed out, can we?
The two discussed it briefly and decided to start looking from the fourth position upwards.

What if?
Then they saw the fourth one.

Fourth in the Yunqian Division, Baililou, Fang Tiancheng.

Third in the Yunqian Division, Jingchen Tower, Cheng Ning.

Second in the Yunqian Division, Jianyue Tower, Li Yuan.

Finally, their eyes both landed on the first row of characters with their prominent lettering.

First in Yunqian Division, Qingyun Pavilion, Jiang Man.

Upon seeing this line of text, both of their minds went blank.

For a moment, I didn't know how to react to this line of text.

Others were puzzled.

"Jiang Man of Qingyun Pavilion? Who is that?"

"Isn't this the person who stays up all night cultivating?"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Has this unhealthy trend spread throughout the entire Yunqian Division?

At this moment, the person who posted the list looked at the people below and began to write on the list.

Cheng Yu, who was below, whispered to Luo Xuan beside her, "Want to write a comment? It seems that only the exceptionally outstanding first place winner gets a comment on the list."

Luo Xuan took a deep breath; she was also somewhat shocked that Yun Qiansi had come in first place.

I never imagined that the last place in our little courtyard back then would suddenly rise to a position that is unattainable for them.

-

Gao Mansion.

Gao Cunfeng and Old Chen were still chatting.

I think the rankings should be made public.

Sure enough, just as they were taking a sip of tea, they saw someone run in from outside.

He was a servant who reported the news.

He rushed in, bowed respectfully, and then spoke: "Master, the list has been released."

"Hmm." Gao Cunfeng nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "Let's talk about the Six Pavilions first. Who is the number one among the Six Pavilions?"

"The Six Pavilions have cancelled the announcement," the servant replied.

Upon hearing this, Gao Cunfeng was somewhat surprised: "I have never seen it before, but this competition is special, so it is normal that it is not open. Let's talk about Yun Qiansi and who is third."

Old Chen didn't think much of it and listened quietly while sipping his tea.

The third step is to listen to those who have failed first.

“Third in Yunqian Division, Jingchen Tower, Cheng Ning,” the servant replied immediately.

Upon hearing this, Gao Cunfeng shook his head and sighed, never expecting that the first person to be eliminated would be from the Cheng family.

"Yes, it's pretty much what the patriarch guessed. She was originally third, so her foundation is a bit weak," Elder Chen added.

Immediately, Gao Cunfeng looked at the servant and asked, "And the second one?"

The servant bowed his head and answered truthfully, "Second in Yunqian Division, Jianyue Tower, Li Yuan."

"Li Yuan also lost?" Gao Cunfeng was slightly pleased. "It seems that the Gao family can finally gain some recognition."

"Congratulations, Patriarch." Old Chen put down his teacup and congratulated him. "It is indeed reasonable for Fang Tiancheng to win first place. It is a pity that we do not know the process."

Gao Cunfeng laughed and said to the servant, "Go and collect your reward."

However, the servant did not leave.

"What's wrong?" Gao Cunfeng frowned.

"First, it's not Fang Tiancheng," the servant whispered. "Fang Tiancheng is fourth."

These words shocked Gao Cunfeng and Chen Lao.

"The Fang family isn't number one?" Gao Cunfeng frowned. "Then who is number one?"

He never expected that there were other experts among them.

The servant dared not hesitate and immediately replied, "The first place in Yunqian Division belongs to Jiang Man of Qingyun Pavilion."

Upon hearing this, Gao Cunfeng stood up abruptly and asked, "Who?"

The servant repeated, this time raising his voice: "The first place in Yunqian Division belongs to Jiang Man of Qingyun Pavilion."

Gao Cunfeng stood there in shock.

Old Chen was also taken aback, but still said, "Perhaps he only got first place, and the person who qualified is someone else."

"And one more thing," the servant continued, "This list includes comments, specifically for the number one spot."

"Speak!" Gao Cunfeng took a deep breath and stared at the other party.

The servant felt immense pressure, but his voice still rang out clearly: "One man has utterly defeated the entire Yunqian Division!"

In an instant, Gao Cunfeng slumped into his chair and shouted, "Butler!"

The sound was imbued with magic, allowing it to travel extremely far.

The butler quickly appeared in the hall: "Master."

Upon seeing people, Gao Cunfeng immediately asked, "Where are the books? Where are the young master's books?"

"It's burning," the butler said immediately.

Upon hearing this, Gao Cunfeng felt his blood rushing to his head: "Put out the fire! Put out the fire quickly, quick!"

This chapter feels too weak; it's almost three thousand words without me even realizing it.

I won't do it again next time. It's past 11 o'clock, and I don't have time to press.

It will then be compressed to two thousand.
