426 Battle Merit Ranking 426 Battle Merit Ranking “The Star Lord Selection is about to begin?” Su Yuan’s expression flickered slightly. This was earlier than expected.
Baili Ge nodded and said, “That’s right. Whether it’s due to the pressure from the Qiguang Holy Temple Twelve Palaces or the impending Tiger Vein struggle, this Star Lord Selection is earlier than previous ones. It won’t be more than a month. We will likely hear news in the coming days.”
“Internal information?” Su Yuan looked at Baili Ge and smiled. “It seems you are quite well-informed in the department?”
Baili Ge smiled. “I’m not that well-informed. I just happen to know an Imperial Envoy slightly well. The Sand Erosion Mysterious Soil Companion Sand I use for my Yellow Dragon Technique was obtained from him.”
Familiar with an Imperial Envoy who controls Mystic Soil?
Su Yuan clicked his tongue. That truly meant having connections at higher levels. Such a person in the Burning Sun level would certainly not be weak!
Baili Ge said, “Speaking of which, with the Heavy Sand you gave me last time, I’ve been refining my Sand Tornado these days. There are signs that my Yellow Dragon Technique is surpassing the Perfect Level, moving further beyond!”
“Oh?” Su Yuan was quite surprised. “That really is congratulations!”
Compared to skills below Blue Grade, the Transformation Realm after reaching the Epic Purple Card level was not much of a secret.
After all, once an Epic Skill was well-trained, it could be used at the Burning Sun level.
Shining Star, Radiant Moon, Burning Sun… Over this long period, it’s not difficult for talented Star Card Masters to train skills to the Transformation Realm.
Even at the Shining Star level, few could train a skill to the Transformation Realm.
But where are we? This is the Sky Patrol Department, where heroes gather!
Among the First Level Special Envoys, apart from a few individuals, over ninety percent would have at least one Epic Skill trained to the Perfect Level. The more formidable ones even had several!
As for a Star Lord… they would certainly have Epic Skills trained to the Transformation Realm!
This was also why First Level Special Envoys generally outmatched Second and Third Level Special Envoys, and Star Lords were clearly superior to First Level Special Envoys.
The enhancements from achieving Perfect and Transformation stages for skills were immense.
For instance, Baili Ge currently majored in two Epic Skills.
The Perfect Level [Yellow Dragon Technique] and the Great Success Stage [Sand Punishment] （Yellow Sand Strangulation, Sand Virgin…).
The Yellow Dragon Technique was quite formidable. Not only could it refine two powerful Sand Tornadoes, but it also came with two skills, “Double Dragon Strike Sky” and “Kanglong Youhui.” Among Epic Skills, it was quite exceptional!
Mind you, Su Yuan’s [Three-One] only had three moves, while the Yellow Dragon Technique included two Sand Tornadoes.
One unique skill could dominate the field. If Baili Ge truly took this step and trained the [Yellow Dragon Technique] to the Transformation Realm, he would undoubtedly rank in the top ten among many Special Envoys!
Baili Ge laughed. “Even if I train the Yellow Dragon Technique to the Perfect Level, I can’t compete for the Star Lord. Enough about me; let’s continue discussing the Star Lord Selection.
The latest news is that Zhou Yi, the Star Lord Tianxuan of Azure Dragon Imperial, broke through to Radiant Moon a week ago.
Including the recently fallen Star Lord Duanmu, there will be at least two Star Lord seats this time!”
“Star Lord Tianxuan broke through to Radiant Moon, two seats…” Su Yuan’s eyes revealed contemplation.
Star Lord Tianxuan Zhou Yi was the longest-serving, now in his fourth term as Star Lord.
Baili Ge said, “This increases the opportunities considerably, but many still have their eyes firmly set on these two positions.
If you want to vie for the Star Lord position, there might be many formidable opponents.”
Su Yuan smiled. “I ask Special Envoy Baili for guidance.”
Su Yuan had not been in the department long and did not know much about many First Level Special Envoys.
“There’s no need to be so formal.” Baili Ge waved his hand and then gathered his smile, becoming more serious.
“Although there’s no clear ranking of strength among us First Level Special Envoys, there is a Combat Achievement Ranking based on accumulated battle merits, reflecting each Special Envoy’s strength.
As he spoke, Baili Ge took out a list and placed it on the table.
“Firstly, there’s Yan Changming, ranked fourteenth on the Combat Achievement Rankings. He’s also vying for the position this time.”
“Yan Changming, only ranked fourteenth?” Su Yuan felt quite surprised.
Although he didn’t see much of Yan Changming’s combat skills during the New Dust World Mission due to separate actions, Su Yuan had sensed that Yan Changming’s strength was considerable, yet to be fully revealed.
First, he could serve as the team leader;
Second, with his intervention, he and Baili Ge both smoothly obtained the two Wolf Veins.
Su Yuan had thought Yan Changming would at least be in the top ten, but he was ranked only fourteenth.
“Ranked ninth on the Combat Achievement Rankings, Xun Yang, who wields a Double Blade Fierce Axe with overwhelmingly aggressive power. No one can match his strength in the department!”
“Ranked seventh, Song Xingyun, who uses a spear with skills in both water and cloud elements. He is adept at prolonged battles and has excellent control over combat!”
“Ranked fourth, Liu Hao…”
“Ranked second, Li Daoxun…”
“Ranked first, Wu Qi!”
As Baili Ge introduced, he also explained these individuals’ basic information and their areas of expertise to Su Yuan.
After speaking without pause, Baili Ge exhaled deeply and pushed the list to Su Yuan.
“These are the likely contestants for the Star Lord position and will be your tough competitors.
I know you are strong, but Wu Qi, Li Daoxun, and Liu Hao are highly formidable. No one has seen them at full strength.
Rumor has it that all three possess comparable strength to Star Lords; if not for the limited Star Lord seats, at least one would likely become a Star Lord from these three.”
