199: New Tianxu Millennium Prodigy Ranking List
As the host of multiple Millennial Martial Arts Tournaments of the Heavenly Ruins, Central Continent Immortal Mansion was very adept at handling affairs.
Among the Prodigies from the six continental-level giant cultivation forces participating in the Trial Tower rankings, let alone making it into the top three, their shadows weren't even seen in the top four. This caused the faces of the six continental-level giant cultivation forces to lose a lot of prestige.
What to do?
If the new Heaven Ruins Millennium Grand Tournament of Martial Arts ranking list were to be based on the Trial Tower's achievements, for the six continental-level giant cultivation forces, it would definitely be low in harm but extremely high in insult.
Held once every millennium, leaving a name for eternity.
An eternal reputation, renowned throughout the world.
Such an impact was simply too great. Could the impact of this public humiliation be reduced?
For this!
The Central Continent Immortal Mansion's tournament ranking committee held several meetings to discuss, and finally approved the new Heaven Ruins Millennium Grand Tournament of Martial Arts ranking list:
First Place: Long Aotian, Feng Zixian
Second Place: Ao Jingtain
Third Place: Long Wudi, Long Bubai, Hua Buwan, Hua Buqi, Si Nan, Huo Yaner
Fourth Place: Fan Xiu, Qin Wanli, Yang Qianyue, Hong Wentao, Wan Youchuan, Leng Jingjing, Dan Dasong, Aolai Wutong, Tushan Feifei, Ye Tian, Chu Tiankuo, Ye Yiming, Xiao Xiong, Long Shijie, Huo Ruier, Yun Feiyu, Jie Wuyou
Fifth Place: ... Seeing so many people tied for fourth place, one can see the wisdom of the ranking committee.
If ranked according to the Trial Tower's achievements, only Fan Xiu would be in fourth place.
And fifth place?
It was a Demon Alliance Prodigy, Aolai Wutong of the Monkey Clan from Aolai Island.
Not only that, the sixth and seventh places were also not Prodigies from the five Human Race continental-level giant cultivation forces, but rather Tushan Feifei of the Tushan clan, a Demon Alliance Prodigy, and Huo Ruier of the Nanzhou Sacred Fire Sect.
It wasn't until Leng Jingjing appeared in eighth place that the shadows of Prodigies from the five Human Race continental-level giant cultivation forces emerged. However, the ninth and tenth places were again not Prodigies from the six continental-level giant cultivation forces, but rather Yun Feiyu of the Yunmeng Immortal Sect and Long Shijie of the Dragon Clan.
How should such a list be ranked?
Of the six continental-level giant cultivation forces, three people made it into the top ten, and two of them were from the Demon Alliance. How could the major giant cultivation forces of the Human Race bear this?
This was a painful slap in the face!
In desperation, the tournament ranking committee had no choice but to merge Prodigies with not-too-significant differences in achievements into one group.
Thus, on the new Heaven Ruins Millennium Grand Tournament of Martial Arts ranking list, the rankings of Prodigies from the six continental-level giant cultivation forces and even other giant cultivation forces looked a bit better.
As soon as the ranking list was released, the square erupted in an uproar.
When the people from the major giant cultivation forces saw the rankings of their participating Prodigies, they couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Central Continent Immortal Mansion still knows how to handle things!
No one was too embarrassed!
While secretly praising Central Continent Immortal Mansion, many people immediately realized something else.
That's right, the entry quotas!
According to the rules:
First place receives three thousand entry quotas.
Second place receives two thousand entry quotas.
Third place receives one thousand entry quotas.
Fourth place receives 999, fifth place receives 998... and so on.
What did merging so many people in the front mean?
Large numbers of entry quotas were being claimed by these Prodigies from the listed giant cultivation forces. The already scarce entry quotas, where monks outnumbered the meat, immediately became even more limited.
Especially for Loose Cultivators, the entry quotas they received were pitifully small. This led to a small commotion at the tournament venue, with many Loose Cultivators expressing strong dissatisfaction and continuous protests.
However, what did that matter?
Facing behemoths like Central Continent Immortal Mansion and Honghuang Shop, would Loose Cultivators dare to truly cause trouble?
Especially since the Demon Alliance, seeing the internal conflict within the Human Race, surprisingly didn't cause any trouble this time, behaving very obediently and completely submitting to the host's decision.
Even the Demon Alliance didn't cause a fuss, so would Loose Cultivators dare to?
Of course, everyone actually understood tacitly that the Demon Alliance didn't really not want to cause trouble, but rather, because of the existence of Long Aotian and the Dragon Heaven Palace, they didn't dare to!
