After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

The Demon Ranking is finally open!

Golden characters appeared on the stone tablet, arranged sequentially from bottom to top.

All eyes turned to the stone tablet.

Top spot – Jian Tianyi, 5,800 points!

"hiss--!"

The entire audience gasped.

Five thousand eight hundred points! How long has he been inside? Jian Tianyi has already killed so many demonic beasts, he's practically a monster!

Following closely behind is Xiong Zhenshan from Beast Taming Mountain, with 5,000 points, firmly holding second place.

Soul Taiqing of the Netherworld Palace, with 4,300 points, ranks third.

Yan Zhanfeng, the heir of the Prince of Zhennan, has 3,900 points and ranks seventh.

The top ten were almost entirely dominated by first-rate sects, with second-rate sects being a rare sight.

Currently, it's just an individual points ranking. The total points of all disciples will be accumulated on the last day to determine the sect rankings.

On the Hehuan Sect's side, several disciples performed reasonably well.

Xiao Sheng is currently ranked 68th, while Xiao Yi and Chen Qingxuan have also made it into the top 100.

Lin Fengmian's name barely made it to ninety-ninth place, clinging to the bottom of the list.

Chu Qingyi has performed remarkably well and has already broken into the top fifty.

"Fellow Daoist Honglian, the Hehuan Sect has achieved excellent results this time."

Elder Sun of the Daoyan Sect smiled and cupped his hands in a polite gesture.

True Person Honglian smiled faintly and returned the greeting:

"Fellow Daoist Sun, you flatter me. Your sect's disciples are also outstanding."

No sooner had the words been spoken than a sarcastic voice rang out.

"Hmph, what's there to be so smug about?"

Feng Meizi of the Heavenly Demon Sect sneered, her narrow phoenix eyes filled with mockery:

"This is just the beginning! Once my disciple Li Yuhun unleashes his power, my Heavenly Demon Sect will surely break into the top ten!"

Upon hearing this, many people nodded in agreement.

Li Yuhun is indeed a dark horse, and has now broken into the top 20, showing a fierce momentum.

And Lu Chen, who once defeated him...

Feng Meizi's gaze fell on the bottom of the list, a mocking smile curving her lips:

"Honglian, you're not still hoping for that Lu Chen, are you?"

She spoke with a hint of sarcasm, pointing to the names on the list that were teetering on the brink of collapse:

"Look at him, he's about to fall out of the top 100 again! Heh, looks like he's been scared out of his wits since entering the secret realm, only concerned with hiding and saving his life, he doesn't even dare to kill any demonic beasts?"

The Red Lotus Immortal's expression remained unchanged, still as cold and aloof as frost.

Feng Meizi, however, refused to give up and continued to embellish the story:

"If you ask me, this kind of trash shouldn't have even participated in the competition. He's just wasting a spot. If it were a disciple from my Heavenly Demon Sect, they certainly wouldn't have gotten so few points."

Master Fulong of Vajra Temple cast a meaningful glance at me without saying a word, but everyone could understand the meaning in his eyes.

The sects such as Beast Taming Mountain, Illusion Valley, and Netherworld Palace remained silent and watched coldly.

Other second-rate sects whispered amongst themselves, some gloating, others shaking their heads and sighing.

Master Honglian sat upright in the main seat, her expression unchanged, as if she had not heard the mockery.

But her gaze subtly swept over the shaky name at the bottom of the list.

Ninety-nine...

Lin Fengmian, what exactly are you doing?

She pondered silently to herself, but remained outwardly composed.

Everyone understood that this was just the beginning.

The three-day journey to the secret realm was full of unpredictable changes.

The real battle is yet to come.

The secret realm of all monsters.

Lin Fengmian wandered around the dense forest for most of the day, but still couldn't find many decent-looking demonic beasts.

This luck is truly unbelievable.

Even with the Nine Transformations of Illusion at its peak, leaving afterimages in the forest, he still only encountered a few first-tier demonic beasts. After killing them, the pitiful points he earned weren't even enough to fill a gap in his teeth.

"Where have I been teleported to?!"

Lin Fengmian couldn't help but curse.

Not only were those monsters pitifully few in number, but the points gained from killing them were also pitifully small. Their ranking on the leaderboard visibly plummeted, and they quickly fell out of the top 100.

He simply stopped and sat cross-legged under an ancient tree, closing his eyes to rest.

There's no use in rushing.

The secret realm was so vast that even his divine sense couldn't reach its end. Rather than wandering around like a headless fly, he decided to calm down and wait for his prey to come to him.

Time passed by, second by second.

About an hour or two later, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.

Although Lin Fengmian was in the secret realm, he could still vaguely sense the changes in the atmosphere outside—at this moment, the list of ten thousand demons on the central square must be being updated again.

Jian Tianyi has successfully broken through the 10,000-point mark.

Xiong Zhenshan of Yushou Mountain followed closely behind, step by step.

But what's truly surprising is the third place.

Li Yuhun.

This name emerged like a dark horse, forcefully pushing the previously firmly third-place Youming Palace Soul Taiqing down to fourth place.

On the plaza, the elders from various factions all turned their heads, their gazes all turning towards the direction of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

His eyes were filled with envy and shock.

It should be noted that the top ten are almost entirely dominated by first-class sects, such as the Heavenly Sword Sect, Beast Taming Mountain, Netherworld Palace, and the Great Yan Royal Family... Which one of them is not deeply rooted and full of talented people?

The Heavenly Demon Sect was merely a second-rate sect.

To be able to train such a disciple and have him break into the top three is simply an incredible feat.

Feeling the gazes from all around, Feng Meizi raised her chin slightly and curled her lips into a smug smile.

She deliberately turned her head to look at True Person Honglian beside her, her eyes full of provocation and mockery—her gaze clearly saying: Look at your useless disciple from the Hehuan Sect, and then look at Li Yuhun from my Heavenly Demon Sect, the difference in their abilities is obvious.

Honglian Zhenren remained expressionless, not even lifting her eyelids, as if she hadn't seen Feng Meizi's provocation at all.

Her beautiful eyes remained fixed on the Xuanjian Mirror above, closely monitoring the battle situation within the secret realm.

What on earth is that little rascal doing?

……

In the secret realm.

Lin Fengmian was feeling frustrated. His figure flashed so fast that it almost left afterimages, but he still couldn't find any trace of the demon beast.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks.

A sweep of divine sense revealed a large group of auras rushing towards them from the east!

Not just one, but a whole group!

Lin Fengmian's pupils contracted slightly as he focused intently on the matter.

Gale Wolf!

And it wasn't just three or five, it was a whole flock!

These demonic beasts were slender, with a bluish-gray body and agile limbs. When they ran, they were like streaks of blue lightning, moving at an astonishing speed.

Most importantly, Gale Wolves are known for their pack mentality; the more they fight, the stronger they become. A charge of hundreds of Gale Wolves would force even a Core Formation cultivator to retreat.

At this moment, hundreds of pairs of eerie green eyes were staring intently at Lin Fengmian.

His eyes were cold and bloodthirsty, as if he were looking at a piece of fat meat waiting to be slaughtered.

Lin Fengmian frowned slightly.

These wolves don't matter to him; each one is only at the peak of the first tier. With his current combat power, he can kill as many as they come.

But the key point is—

Among the wolf pack, he sensed an aura far more powerful and ferocious than that of ordinary Gale Wolves.
