Chapter 270: Transcendent Qing (7)
In Zhongyuan, ranking and classification held a special significance.
In ancient, uncivilized Zhongyuan, entertainment required money, and the only nearly cost-free pastime was arguing over who was the best, the strongest, or the most beautiful.
And the Murim Martial Arts Tournament was a massive event where people could indulge in the ultimate entertainment, armed with the most up-to-date information. Naturally, people from all over Zhongyuan flocked to it.
And the hottest topic in Kaifeng right now was none other than Ximen Qing.
At twenty years old, she had achieved Transcendence — a feat even the Great Martial Emperor couldn’t accomplish.
She was the Kirin of history, the youngest person to ever reach Transcendence in all of Murim’s records.
Thus, she was praised as the strongest of the Rising Dragons, the most powerful of the new generation, the future number one under heaven, and the strongest Rising Dragon in Zhongyuan.
But just discussing her martial prowess wasn’t exciting enough.
Ranking and classification games were all about fiery debates, passionate clashes of opinions, and often escalating to the point where heads got smashed and full-scale brawls erupted. That was the real fun of it.
Since everyone agreed that Ximen Qing was an unprecedented genius, the people’s battle instincts naturally shifted to something more tangible — her beauty.
Qing typically walked around with Tang Nana, and recently, Moyong Juhee had clung to her like a cicada, tagging along everywhere.
Thus, she had essentially invited comparisons herself.
