Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 759: Chapter 758: Take Another 200!

”Indeed, in each Sect competition, never mind the top ten, it’s always the Top Ten Super Sects that rank in the top three.”

”The Sect of the Battle God has always been extremely strong among the Top Ten Super Sects, with the mantle passed down from the once number one War God of the Dragon Martial Continent. If not for the freakish rise of the One Slash Palace, they might have taken first place.”

”It’s a pity, with One Slash Palace in the way, the Sect of the Battle God can only be the perennial runner-up.”

”Second place isn’t bad, after all, this is only the first round; there are two more to go.”

...

After Eastern Ancestor’s words, no one was surprised; instead, it seemed quite expected.

Only a few forces, some with a sneer, others taking pleasure in the misfortune, or with a sense of pity, looked over at Su Han, clearly knowing something but either unwilling or afraid to speak.

Su Han’s expression remained calm. He looked up toward the Sect of the Battle God, noticing many cold gazes also directed at him.

Su Han remained silent, without speaking.

But Ye Longhe could not contain himself again, and he spoke, ”Eastern Ancestor, it’s acceptable for One Slash Palace to be first, but are you sure that the second place truly belongs to the Sect of the Battle God?”

”Confirmed.” Eastern Ancestor nodded slightly.

It seemed that in the entire arena, the only person who could stir his emotions was Su Han; as for others, he always treated them with an indifferent demeanor.

”Hahaha...”

Ye Longhe laughed in anger, looking at Su Han and exclaimed loudly, ”Brother Su, you see, I always thought this Sect competition, given so many people watching, in front of so many forces, would truly be fair and just. But now it seems, in this world, where is there any fairness and justice? It’s completely...”

”Cough cough...”

Before he could finish, Su Han coughed lightly, interrupting him.

”Let him continue.” Su Han said.

Ye Longhe took a deep breath and then nodded with a sneer, ”What fairness and justice, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, in this Dragon Martial Continent, you, the Top Ten Super Sects, are the heavens. Whoever you say is first, is first, whoever you declare in the top ten, they are in the top ten!”

”These words... why do they seem somewhat resentful?”

”Could there be some trickery involved? When Eastern Ancestor announced the first place, Ye Longhe was like this, and now seems even angrier with the announcement of the second place.”

”From what I know, Ye Longhe is a genius of the Ye Family, not a fool. As long as he still has a bit of sense, he would not offend these Super Sects, but looking at him now, there must be some deception.”

”It seems that this trickery is also known to Su Baliu.”

Murmurs spread, clearly, these people were unaware of various reasons.

Although the forces present here had all entered the Ancient Battlefield and participated in that great eruption of conflict, they were too busy scrambling for treasures to pay attention to what was happening at the major vent sites.

The only universally known fact was that Jade Void Palace had been pressured by the Phoenix Sect into withdrawing from the contention over the major vent sites.

But after their withdrawal, Jade Void Palace took over the medium and small vent sites and obtained quite a few Sage’s Skulls as well, so whether there was any trickery involved, they truly couldn’t judge.

”The third place...”

As everyone had their thoughts, Eastern Ancestor spoke again, ”The third place is... Demon Domain.”

No one spoke; Demon Domain obtaining third place was expected.

But this third place, for the Demon Domain, didn’t seem to bring much joy. Their expressions were not happy but rather somber.

In their solemnity, many gazes were directed toward the Sect of the Battle God.

Because they clearly knew that if the matter was fair, the Sect of the Battle God would definitely not rank before the Demon Domain.

However, for many reasons, they could not speak out.

”Fourth place, Sect of Peace!”

”Fifth place, Holy Spirit Palace!”

”Sixth place, Divine Transformation Pavilion!”

”Seventh place... Immortal Dao Court!”

Following, Eastern Ancestor didn’t hesitate to announce each ranking.

However, when Su Han heard the three words ’Immortal Dao Court,’ the calmness on his face finally disappeared, along with the silence.

”Immortal Dao Court, ranked seventh?”

Su Han looked towards Eastern Ancestor, ”Then, are the last three places Giant Island, Sword Immortal Tomb, and Jade Void Palace?”

Eastern Ancestor nodded slightly, ”Exactly.”

With this statement, Ye Longhe was instantly furious, and Ye Longchen’s expression also turned extremely ugly.

”If I had known earlier that this Sect competition would be so fair and just, then Phoenix Sect wouldn’t have bothered participating,” Su Han snorted coldly.

”Su Baliu, what do you mean by this?”

From Jade Void Palace, Duan Yunshan snorted coldly, ”The Sect competition is the result of negotiations among many forces, absolutely fair and just. Do you really think your Phoenix Sect qualifies to compete with the Top Ten Super Sects for a place in the top ten?”

”Whether we qualify or not, you should ask the trash of your Jade Void Palace,” Su Han said indifferently.

”Ridiculous, you are simply...”

”Shut up.”

Duan Yunshan wanted to argue, but Su Han, impatient, said, ”Verbal disputes are useless. I have no mood to argue with you here. Actions speak louder than words. Even if your Jade Void Palace enters the top ten by such despicable means, it cannot hide the fact that everyone in your palace is useless.”

”How dare you!” Duan Yunshan was furious.

The always meditative Yuan Ling also opened his eyes, staring at Su Han and said, ”Su Baliu, I’m sparing your life out of respect for One Slash Palace. Don’t push your luck.”

Su Han flashed a cold smile, then said, ”Fine, since Eastern Ancestor has already announced the rankings, the count of the Sage’s Skulls must also be settled, right?”

”Yes,” Eastern Ancestor nodded.

”Then, how many Sage’s Skulls did my Phoenix Sect put out, do you remember?” Su Han asked again.

”Two hundred,” Eastern Ancestor said.

”Two hundred?”

Su Han’s eyelid twitched, as Phoenix Sect had clearly put out three hundred.

”Eastern Ancestor, forgive me for speaking frankly, you once saved me and I have respected you for it. I have always viewed you as a person unstained by the filth of the world according to the rumors on the Dragon Martial Continent, but after today, I will have to reassess my impression of you,” Su Han said.

Su Han pursed his lips and directly tossed out a Space Ring.

”According to what you said, before, my Phoenix Sect handed in two hundred Sage’s Skulls. Now, I take out another two hundred, making the total number four hundred.”

He did not say the rest, but everyone knew that a total of four hundred surpassed the three hundred and seventy-two of One Slash Palace, who was in first place, meaning now, the first place belonged to Phoenix Sect!
