the remaining seventy-two talents must each face off against the other seventy-one, and each battle was also a process of plundering Dragon Vein Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by defeating all opponents could one claim the top seat on the Dragon Pool Ranking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the ranking matches yet to commence, as the listed talents gazed at one another, boundless battle intent had already surfaced in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, no one wished to become another’s stepping stone; each sought a higher rank and more Dragon Vein Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, the strongest—Lin Yun, Yan Chi, Li Daoxuan, and others—were eager to challenge Sikong Sheng, the previous Dragon Pool Ranking champion, whose power was unfathomable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tuoba Ku, who had just lost to Pang Bo, glanced at Sikong Sheng, then turned toward the direction where Ye Chen and the others stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes, Sikong Sheng’s power was utterly terrifying; even he doubted he could withstand more than a few strikes against Sikong Sheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logically, such a Sikong Sheng should have unquestionably claimed first place in this year’s Talent War.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in Tuoba Ku’s perception, he sensed an equally immense, even comparable threat emanating from Ye Chen and his companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not one—but several!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Bo, who had defeated him, needed no further mention; he even felt Pang Bo had held back some of his strength;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Ye Chen, whom he had briefly clashed with by chance, he found him equally mysterious;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Huan, who had first emerged and tied with him, he believed had turned this Dragon Pool Ranking into a game;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Li, who had also defeated Mo Yan, had never fought him directly, yet Tuoba Ku still sensed an intense threat from him;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the final one, Xiao Yan, though seemingly unremarkable, Tuoba Ku detected an unimaginably terrifying flame aura from him—should it erupt, it could burn the heavens and boil the seas!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are simply too many experts!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Tuoba Ku, whose nature was bold and unrestrained, now felt considerable pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving aside those who had just overwhelmed him, even Yan Chi, Li Daoxuan, Lin Yun, and even Murong Qingcheng—he had no absolute confidence in defeating any of them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But that’s exactly what makes it exciting!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tuoba Ku thought inwardly: “No matter how many experts there are, I, Tuoba Ku, will carve out a bloody path!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On another fighting platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bing Ling, having fully recovered to her peak state with the aid of the Bingjue Sect and Dragon Vein Qi, frowned slightly as she regarded the other powerful talents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before arriving, her minimum goal had been to enter the top three of the Dragon Pool Ranking, even to vie for first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after being defeated by Ye Chen and witnessing the endless emergence of new talents, she now had no confidence even in contending for the top five.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the talents pondered various thoughts, the chief judge, Luo Jiacheng, spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After a full day of combat, I’m sure everyone is quite exhausted!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Jiacheng announced loudly: “You will now have three days of rest. After three days, the final ranking matches will begin. I hope you all can adjust yourselves to peak condition by then!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No sooner had he finished than the listed talents leapt down from the platforms and headed toward their respective sects; Pang Bo and the others naturally returned to the Liuyun Sect’s location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding cultivators, seeing Pang Bo and the others heading toward Liuyun Sect, could not help but be surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many eighth- and seventh-grade sects immediately began probing for information about Pang Bo and his companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two days later, outside the courtyard where the Liuyun Sect group stayed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, I’m not lying to you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Bo slung an arm around a young talent’s shoulder, appearing extremely amicable, then smiled: “We’re all from Liuyun Sect. If you don’t believe me, check the information we filled out before our matches!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? You’re saying Liuyun Sect couldn’t possibly produce so many talents?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You wouldn’t understand!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Bo continued: “The reason we’re so strong is that before joining our sect, we accidentally entered an ancient inheritance site filled with precious cultivation arts and treasures. Look here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Pang Bo quickly pulled out the “Tai Xuan Gong” he had borrowed from Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Bo flipped open a page and let the other glance at it: “Tai Xuan Gong, Earth-grade Mid-level cultivation art, divided into eleven stages. When perfected, it can refine a supreme true qi even a Star-Level cultivator can’t produce!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Such arts are everywhere in that inheritance site—there are even multiple Earth-grade Top-tier cultivation arts! We all trained those Earth-grade Top-tier arts, which is why we’re this strong now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To be honest, many people have come asking about us these past few days. I never told anyone this—only because I feel a kinship with you, and you’ve supported me with so many spirit stones, that I’m willing to share this secret!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You asked if I remember that ancient inheritance site? Of course I do—it still has several immature spirit fruits there. How could I forget?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Pang Bo deceive people outside the courtyard gate, Xiao Yan and the others began chatting in the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Xiao Yan: Brother Pang is fishing again!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Han Li: That’s the third one today. Brother Pang’s gotten a lot of spirit stones already—later we’ll make him pay dearly!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Yue Buqun: Brother Pang’s idea is truly… original!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the elimination rounds ended, many had noticed the close bond among Pang Bo and his companions, so people soon came to subtly probe them for information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, under Han Li’s suggestion, they had planned to keep a low profile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Pang Bo suddenly asked Lu Qingshan if they could go fishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingshan, having crossed over this time purely to relax and meet up with his group friends, agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, after the final ranking matches, Pang Bo and the others would inevitably draw the attention of sixth-grade sects; they couldn’t just leave and dump all the trouble onto Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Lu Qingshan approved Pang Bo’s plan—and thus the scene just witnessed came to be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Xiao Yan: I wonder how many will come after us this time?】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Pang Bo: I hope a few Spirit Sea experts show up—and even better, a few Life-Death Realm kings!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the group owner had already said any trouble could be casually resolved—they were only too happy to see chaos unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside another room in the courtyard, Liuyun Sect disciple Luo Hanshan stood before the sect master, Luo Xinglie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Hanshan said anxiously: “Ye Chen’s friend Pang Bo is again telling others they discovered an ancient inheritance site!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Luo Xinglie could not help but show a look of helplessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, when he learned Pang Bo and the others had listed their sect as Liuyun, he had been overjoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, so many super-talents appearing in Liuyun Sect—even if only nominally—would greatly boost the sect’s fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as Pang Bo and the others grew more astonishing in the elimination rounds, his worries deepened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Liuyun Sect was only a ninth-grade sect, with only one Star-Level Supreme Elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Pang Bo and the others merely performed well enough to enter the Dragon Pool Ranking—even ranked around thirtieth—Liuyun Sect could still protect them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But their displayed power suggested several could contend for the top ten, even top three. Such talent was simply too unbelievable, making Luo Xinglie deeply anxious about the safety of Ye Chen and his friends after the Dragon Pool Ranking ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they were merely talented youths; facing a true Star-Level expert’s assassination, they would be in grave danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So even before the elimination rounds ended, Luo Xinglie had already sent word to Liuyun Sect’s Supreme Elder, requesting the sect dispatch strong cultivators to escort them safely back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he hadn’t expected that as soon as the elimination rounds ended, people immediately came to probe Pang Bo and the others—and Pang Bo, with no suspicion, revealed they had entered an ancient inheritance site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, upon first hearing this, Luo Xinglie had been deeply tempted by the mysterious ancient inheritance site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after careful consideration, he still approached Lu Qingshan and his group, warning them never to mention the ancient inheritance site again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, Luo Xinglie had proposed to Ye Fan that Liuyun Sect wished to trade for an Earth-grade Top-tier cultivation art, promising any price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet upon hearing this, Ye Chen’s friends had all burst into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Pang Bo even said he was a decent fellow and promised to gift him one or two Earth-grade Top-tier arts in due time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been utterly bewildered at first—but only when Pang Bo again mentioned the ancient inheritance site to others did he realize Ye Chen’s friends were no fools; they had other plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for their occasional mentions of “fishing” and “group owner,” though he didn’t understand, he guessed that Lu Qingshan, the leader in the purple-gold robe, was undoubtedly a supreme expert, possibly even having crossed into the Spirit Sea Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Lu Qingshan, a supreme expert, present, he had no need to worry about Ye Chen and the others’ safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Luo Xinglie quickly said: “Hanshan, don’t concern yourself with these matters. When you have free time, spend more time with Ye Chen and his friends—this will benefit you greatly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Father!” Luo Hanshan nodded promptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time swiftly arrived at the fourth morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spectator stands were now packed with crowds, the noise deafening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The six fighting platforms ahead had merged into one, forming a massive platform three hundred meters long and two hundred meters wide, still surrounded by a dark blue energy barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the anticipation of the masses, the young generation who had entered the Dragon Pool Ranking soon entered through nine entrances around the platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The atmosphere is completely different!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen looked around, thinking inwardly: “I wonder if I can still claim first place this time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Sikong Sheng and others who had already lost to him in the original storyline, he paid them no mind; his true concern was his group friends—Xiao Yan and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Xiao Yan and the others had suppressed their cultivation to the peak of the Embrace-Origin Realm, he still had no absolute confidence in defeating each of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, Chief Judge Luo Jiacheng announced the competition rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The upcoming matches would consist of seventy-one rounds, each with thirty-six battles; every talent on the Dragon Pool Ranking must fight one match against each of the other seventy-one, after which final rankings would be determined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even talents who had already fought in the elimination rounds would face each other again in the ranking matches, giving them a chance to reverse defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The loser of each battle would have a portion of their Dragon Vein Qi plundered by the victor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the final round began, the head judge and the other twelve judges would vote together to select ten of the strongest seed competitors; these ten seed competitors would not face each other in the initial matches, only meeting in the final nine rounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sikong Sheng must be selected—no one in last year’s Dragon’s Vein Rankings could match him; it’s uncertain whether anyone this year can even threaten him!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yan Chi and Lin Yun must also be chosen—their qi signatures are both extremely powerful; they’ve certainly cultivated their primary cultivation arts to profound depths!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Daoxuan must be selected too—he’s a sword prodigy who has elevated his sword intent to the sixth-level realm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Chen, Tuobu Ku, Pang Bo, Han Li, and Meng Huan should also make the cut—they’re all newcomers, but one defeated the eldest disciple of the Flying Demon Sect, Mo Yan, and another defeated the Bingjue Sect disciple Bing Ling!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This time, there are too many newcomers among the top ten seed competitors!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What can we do? Their five are simply terrifyingly strong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then who’s the tenth? Do we pick Bing Ling of the Bingjue Sect or Mo Yan of the Flying Demon Sect?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actually, I’d recommend Mo Yan’s junior disciple, Murong Qingcheng—I believe her strength surpasses Mo Yan’s, not falls short!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now it’s even more chaotic! Choosing one among these three is truly agonizing!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who knew so many experts would suddenly emerge this year? Otherwise, with their three’s strength, they wouldn’t just be candidates for the top ten seeds—they’d have a real shot at the top three!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let’s pick Murong Qingcheng—after all, both Mo Yan and Bing Ling have already been defeated by others!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s inappropriate! Murong Qingcheng’s ranking in last year’s Dragon’s Vein Rankings was far below Bing Ling’s and Mo Yan’s!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So what? Ye Chen, Tuobu Ku, and the others didn’t even compete in last year’s Dragon’s Vein Rankings!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let’s vote directly—whichever candidate gets the most votes becomes the seed competitor; the rest is none of our concern!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine! I vote for Murong Qingcheng!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I vote for Mo Yan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I vote for Bing Ling!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, among the thirteen votes—including the head judge’s—Murong Qingcheng received six, Bing Ling received four, and Mo Yan received only three!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the ten seed competitors were officially determined: Sikong Sheng, Yan Chi, Li Daoxuan, Lin Yun, Murong Qingcheng, Tuobu Ku, Ye Chen, Pang Bo, Han Li, and Meng Huan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Notably, disciples from sixth-rank sects, who usually occupied eight or nine of the top ten seed spots in past years, now made up only half of the list; even more strangely, four of the ten seed competitors hailed from the same ninth-rank sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for this outcome, the selected competitors—Sikong Sheng and the others—showed no great reaction, since all of them had been chosen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Bing Ling, Mo Yan, and Gan Yun, the second disciple of Luoxia Sect, who had not been selected, all wore expressions of bitter resentment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Gan Yun!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had won every match in the preliminary rounds, so for him, failing to be selected as a seed competitor was an outright humiliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even seed competitors aren’t guaranteed a top-ten ranking!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gan Yun’s expression turned dark, and he silently vowed: “Wait—I’ll make you all regret not choosing me as a seed competitor! And those disciples from the ninth-rank sects—what’s so special? They just happened to stumble upon an ancient inheritance site; how could their foundation compare to Luoxia Sect’s?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They defeated Mo Yan only because he’s useless. When I face them, I’ll crush them one by one!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On another front, the Bingjue Sect’s Sect Master and his core Elders were deeply dissatisfied upon learning Bing Ling had not been selected among the top ten seeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, among the ten seed competitors, only Ye Chen had defeated Bing Ling; aside from Sikong Sheng, no one else’s victory over her was certain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, no matter how displeased they were, they would not interfere with the judges’ decisions—the judges had been jointly appointed by all major sects of the Nan Zhuo Region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the Bingjue Sect Master could only turn to Bing Ling and encourage her: “Bing Ling, you must bring honor to our sect—restore our Bingjue Sect’s dignity!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest assured, Sect Master!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she had little confidence, Bing Ling spoke earnestly: “I will give it my all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2631,"2026-06-20T09:18:16.807Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","ceb465d71df1ac7d771c5381f7eb338c96966b50e90431c9da5d49369868483c","all-heavens-starting-from-consuming-starry-sky-t-chapter-108","all-heavens-starting-from-consuming-starry-sky-t-chapter-106",516,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fall-heavens-starting-from-consuming-starry-sky-t-cover.jpg"]
