Chapter 668 List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions
In the end, Li Mu still decided to wait and see.
At least, he had to figure out the problem that Divine-winged Fox was facing before making a decision.
Though Divine-winged Fox was so powerful that even Li Mu was awed by him, he had to drive Bi Yan, his daughter, away by beating her that day, so as to protect her. This showed that his enemy was very powerful.
If Bi Yan was in any danger because of his carelessness or his decision-making, Li Mu could not forgive himself.
After all, by today, Li Mu had already regarded the her as his friend.
He knew that if he got involved in this, he might be in danger. However, for the sake of his friend, he was willing to take a risk.
“Being a good man was like practicing broadswords.”
“The broadsword-using method depends on courage and fearlessness.”
“Once he strikes out with his broadswords, nothing can stop him.”
“This is what broadswords are like.”
As for those who practiced broadsword-using methods, they should not be afraid of death. If they were overcautious, they would never be able to make any achievements regarding the broadsword-using methods or Broadsword Way.
Therefore, even though he knew that it was dangerous, he was willing to help Bi Yan.
“Young master, are you going to accept the challenge tomorrow?” Bi Yan put away the challenge letter and said, “If you really want to marry the little princess of the Heavenly Fox Clan, you must improve your ranking.”
Bi Yan raised her head and stared at Li Mu.
She carefully hid her concerns.
Li Mu smiled and said, “Of course, I’m.”
Bi Yan lowered her head, pouting and nodding. “Oh, then I’ll go find Mr. Dongfang and ask him to arrange the time tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
Li Mu went back to his room and logged into the Immortal Net.
He habitually clicked to the forum of Big Events in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region. He found that his post with the title “Thank you” was pinned to the top. There were more than 50 million comments and billions of clicks, which created a record in the forum’s history.
Tang Qianyan, the manager of the Immortal Net in Brilliance Immortal Star Region, posted an announcement.
As a result, Li Mu got a reward from the management team of the Immortal Net, which was worth one hundred gold-colored fairy crystals.
Tang Qianyan also sent a private letter to Li Mu.
From a manager’s point of view, Tang Qianyan was grateful for Li Mu’s great contribution to the prosperity of the forum. At the same time, Tang Qianyan also hoped that Li Mu could post more on the forum, or help bringing more people to the Wild Broadsword Alliance.
From the letter, Li Mu realized that as the manager of the Immortal Net in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, Tang Qianyan was under pressure. If the Immortal Net was active and developed well there, for him, there would be a reward and even a possibility of promotion.
That might be the reason why Tang Qianyan was willing to make friends with Li Mu.
In addition to that, Li Mu was also received private messages from many members of the Wild Broadsword Alliance. At first glance, they were full of praise and worship, just like the posts on the forum of Big Events in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, which made Li Mu feel warm and moved.
Li Mu replied to some posts on the forum, and then went offline. He then logged into the Immortal Net in the White Earth.
After browsing through it, he found a lot of information on the Dark Yellow Army and the Dark Sect. Although it was not detailed, it was enough to confirm what Dongfang Piaoliang had said.
With Li Mu’s current authority, he could not get any more details about the Dark Sect, even if he paid a lot of money. He had to give it up for now.
On the Immortal Net forum of the White Earth, the most eye-catching news was naturally the martial art contest for the little princess of the Heavenly Fox Clan.
The newly released List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions was also a hot topic.
As for the strengths of those 1,100 Heavenly Legends, people had different opinions and argued with each other.
Li Mu just got the paper booklet of the ranking list from Dongfang Piaoliang, but he didn’t read it through. At this time, he browsed it carefully on the Immortal Net and found the people with higher rankings all unfamiliar.
The person that was ranked first was Lu Wen, the young master of the Heavenly Fox Clan who traveled with the Lady of the Clouds. He was known as the reincarnation of a deity and the heir of the Heavenly Deity Clan.
The person that was ranked second was Godly Thunder, the heir of the Purple Sky Palace.
The person that was ranked third was Double Shadows, from the Shadow Sect, one of the six superpowers.
The person that was ranked fourth...
There were only two people who were not from the six superpowers among those who were ranked in the top 20.
Li Mu continued to read and saw his own ranking, 964th.
Theoretically, this ranking was a little too low.
Li Yidao, Li Mu’s another name, was ranked first among all Heavenly Legends in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region. So he should be among the top 300 at least on the List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions. However, he didn’t even make it into the top 500 and almost dropped out of the top 1,000. That was ridiculous.
On the forum, some people questioned Li Yidao’s ranking.
But the official explanation was that the Brilliance Immortal Star Region was relatively barren and desolate. The martial arts there were backward and people’s average strength was not strong.
Therefore, there was a huge gap between the top one Heavenly Legend from such a backward area and those top ten from other areas.
The current ranking was very reasonable according to the officials.
When Li Mu saw it, he was not angry or dissatisfied.
The official explanation sounded somewhat reasonable.
As Li Mu didn’t show his real strength, the ones who made the list might not know his real strength.
Because there was no combat capability, battle records, or other reasons given on the list, and there were no specific rules, Li Mu was not sure what ranking he could get with his real strength.
Of course, it was impossible for him to make it into the top 10 and the top 20.
Li Mu guessed it might be top 100.
After logging out from the Immortal Net, Li Mu began to refine qi and practice broadsword-using methods.
The broadsword-using method given to him by Divine-winged Fox was extremely aggressive, which was in line with Li Mu’s style. It could improve his combat capability in a very short time, so Li Mu was very interested in it.
Moreover, Li Mu found another thing—
The real name of this manual should not be only one word, “broadsword”. There should be a few words missing.
He guessed that Divine-winged Fox erased the rest of the words on the cover.
...
The next day.
It was cloudy and windy.
“Mr. Li, I wish you a great victory.”
Dongfang Piaoliang stood under the 19th Immortal-slaying Platform, cheering for Li Mu with a smile.
On the Immortal-slaying Platform.
A hook-nosed young man in a purple robe with a grim face and a sheathed long sword by his waist, looked at Li Mu with undisguised arrogance and contempt when Li Mu slowly walked onto the ring.
This person was Reihom, the Heavenly Legend of Storm Star Region, who had posed a challenge yesterday.
He was ranked 988th on the list.
Yesterday, it was he who sent the challenge letter to Li Mu.
“Li Yidao? Although your ranking is very low, you are the top Heavenly Legend in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region. You are worthy of my challenge and qualified to be a stepping stone for me.”
Reihom was very proud. He stared at Li Mu impolitely and spoke slowly.
Li Mu didn’t bother to talk nonsense. He stood on the ring and observed his opponent secretly.
Clang!
Reihom drew his sword.
The sword moved like a flash.
Below the fighting ring, there were many spectators. Some of the cultivators were cheering for Reihom as they were from the Storm Star Region.
Li Mu looked at the man’s move and shook his head slightly.
It was just so-so.
Li Mu held the handle of his saber backhand.
His saber flashed.
Bang!
Reihom hadn’t yet understood what was going on. He only felt a gush of power hitting his chest. He was sent flying backward, falling off the fighting ring.
He was instantly defeated.
“A person like you shouldn’t speak such arrogant words and challenge others.”
Standing on the fighting ring, Li Mu looked at Reihom, who fell to the ground, and shook his head in disappointment.
He wasn’t putting on airs.
He really wanted to see the cultivation of the Heavenly Legends of other Star Regions, but Reihom turned out to be even weaker than the Little Heavenly Devil.
“The Heavenly Legends of the Storm Star Region is much weaker than what I imagined.”
He turned around and walked down.
The cultivators of the Storm Star Region, who had been clapping and cheering just now, were embarrassed and didn’t know what to say.
When Bi Yan was cheering, Dongfang Piaoliang also started to cheer with a smile on his cute and chubby face. He nodded repeatedly and then took the lead in clapping.
Around the fighting ring, there were also some cultivators from the Brilliance Immortal Star Region who came here just for fun. However, they didn’t expect that Li Yidao, the representative of them, would behave so domineeringly and defeat the opponent with one strike swiftly. They started to be proud of him and cheered and applauded.
Reihom struggled to his feet, supported by several of his followers. He realized that his body was in a state of chaos and that he was no longer able to gather his natural qi. He wasn’t able to stand for a short period himself, which made him shocked and angry.
He had never expected that he would be defeated and would so vulnerable.
In particular, Li Mu’s words made him so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Watching Li Mu walk down the ring, Reihom trembled with anger.
At this moment, another voice sounded.
“Wait, what did you just say?”
Lin Qingxuan, a young man in snow-white clothes with black hair slowly came to the ring. With a jade fan in his hand, he stared at Li Mu and said, “You just defeated Reihom. How dare you be so arrogant that you dare to look down upon the cultivators from the Storm Star Region. Li Yidao, you are so arrogant. Do you dare to fight with me, Lin Qingxuan?”
All of a sudden, there was a burst of exclamation around.
Lin Qingxuan, the top Heavenly Legend in the Storm Star Region!
On the List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions, Lin Qingxuan was ranked 734th, more than two hundred levels higher than Li Mu.
