Beams of light were shot by the warships from the Seven Stellar Academies, which gathered and produced a scroll.
The latter opened up high above like a cosmic river. Countless stars dotted the parchment; there were even mountains, streams and beasts. It was mystical.
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what it was.
“What’s that?”
“I don’t know. It came out from the academies’ warships. Does it have something to do with the competition?”
“Did anyone see any of the old monsters in the previous competition? Now’s the chance to take a look.”
“Wait, I’m breaking out of my coffin. Wait for me to climb out of it.”
“What the hell?”
“The League of Talents is too exciting. I’ll bury myself and then come out and watch the next one.”
Silence.
…
Everyone was talking about the scroll, but only a scant few had an idea of its nature.
In the military’s battle fortress—General Fu Xinglan, Grand Duke Chongshan and the others were discussing the Crown Prince’s situation. They were stunned by the appearance of such an item.
“It’s that thing!”
There was a hint of shock in their eyes, as they seemed to recognize the scroll.
At the same time—many powerful figures all around the Great Qian Empire were equally startled. They too recognized it.
However, only eternal stage warriors or ancient geezers who had lived long enough knew about this!
It was no wonder that the people logged onto the live chat were completely clueless. Those old relics wouldn’t use the platform to talk about it.
The Second Prince, Ji Haochen, and the others were also looking up, taken aback by the item’s sudden appearance.
“What is that?” Everyone was in an uproar.
While everyone was confused—a golden ray of light was cast down from the scroll, aiming for Wang Teng.
The latter was a little flustered, but he chose not to evade, letting the golden light fall on him.
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what was going on.
Boom!
Just then, the scroll produced a resounding boom, and a name was gradually etched on its surface, as if someone were writing on it.
Wang Teng!
It was Wang Teng’s name!
His figure was also manifested as the name appeared. Scenes were flashing past like a movie; it was a record of his deeds in the League of Talents.
His performance in the five forbidden zones during the elimination battle, his exciting fights in the battle arena, and the scene when he finally defeated the devilized Crown Prince…
Many other names appeared on the scroll as this took place; their corresponding figures also appeared.
All of those images had one thing in common: they were all young, with different temperaments. Some were calm, others arrogant. There were some who were kind, or even cold… Their features were distinct, memorable upon first glance.
The hero’s name appeared right next to theirs!
Everyone was staring at the giant scroll, in shock and disbelief. They finally knew what the artifact was for.
A majestic voice was heard, resounding throughout the sky. “Wang Teng left his name on the Star Rankings for future generations to look up to!”
The names and figures on the scroll disappeared and turned into starlight.
The parchment closed up and disappeared along with the voice.
“The Star Rankings!” Everyone was dumbfounded. The words were echoing in their minds.
Although many didn’t know what the name stood for, they understood the other half of the message.
Future generations will look up to him!
The audience realized what it meant.
Someone suddenly shouted, “Did everyone see it? There was a familiar name on the Star Rankings!”
“Meng Tianyou! Meng Tianyou was there!”
“Wasn’t that the peerless talent that walked out of the Great Qian Empire more than fifty thousand years ago?”
“It must be. That figure was just how Meng Tianyou looked when she was young. I got to see her once. There’s no mistaking it.”
“I actually got to see what Meng Tianyou looked like when she was young!”
“Spectacular, so beautiful!”
The recognition of a renowned figure of yore had an immediate reaction, both of shock and awe.
It was a peerless talent from fifty thousand years before!
She left her name on the Star Rankings and was still referenced in discussions in recent times, causing waves of nostalgia.
“I didn’t think I would get to see her young appearance again before I leave this world. I can rest in peace now!” said a powerful warrior in the starry sky, paired with a sigh.
The voice filled with sorrow and emotion, echoing in the distant space before it faded away.
Other powerhouses in places light years away joined in with sighs of their own, eyes gleaming as they looked at the Star Rankings.
The appearance of the Star Rankings shocked many people!
Some of the ancient masters awakened from deep slumber and saw what was happening on the Battle Planet.
“For future generations to look up to! This is it!”
“The Star Rankings are inscribed with the names of great talents. I don’t recognize a lot of them aside from Meng Tianyou. Are they geniuses from other planetary sectors?”
“It must be so, including some of the ancient talents.”
“Wang Teng’s name and figure were inscribed. Is he going to be held in the same regard as them?”
“I’ve witnessed the rise of a peerless talent!”
…
The discussions continued non stop for a long time.
On the Parkers family’s spacecraft—the Furious Flaming Universe Lord and his people were overcome with disbelief. “The Star Rankings!”
General Fu Xinglan, Grand Duke Chongshan and the others had mixed feelings. They felt dizzy after hearing the news.
The Second Prince, Ji Haochen and the rest of the geniuses snapped out of their stupor.
They looked at Wang Teng with troubled expressions, a trace of envy escaping from their eyes.
They didn’t think it was possible to leave their names on the Star Rankings after a certain performance standard!
No one had told them about it, and not one knew anything about the criteria.
Still, it was evident that the young hero had the qualifications to be there.
Ranking first in five forbidden zones during the elimination battle, defeating sixteen talented martial warriors in a single battle, and even defeating a devilized Crown Prince.
These feats weren’t achievable for the ordinary!
All of this made the hero eligible for the Star Rankings!
The Second Prince and the others could only sigh, knowing they weren’t on par. There was only envy and admiration left in their hearts.
