Chapter 82 - 64: Demon Slaying Hero List Rankings, How Can Sparrows Understand the Ambitions of a Swan_2
After Xu Bei finished speaking, the surrounding Stewards who were gossiping quietly immediately cast peculiar glances at Lin Xuankong.
Especially those Stewards in the late-Second Layer phase, they all shook their heads slightly.
Lin Xuankong, with his mid-Second Layer Cultivation, had acquired the position of Silver Jade Steward. Naturally, some were slightly dissatisfied. However, since the Silver Jade position was determined by the Chief Steward, none dared express it overtly. Now, with the Feng Family’s ranking, it made a few Stewards who felt discontented in their hearts quite pleased.
Steward Zhao Yufei, with cold and beautiful eyes, looked at Steward Lin Jiao and asked, "Steward Lin Jiao, what about my ranking?"
Seeing everyone looking at Lin Xuankong with peculiar eyes, Lin Jiao already felt somewhat regretful, thinking he shouldn’t have taken out the ranking list here.
But now, facing the Steward’s question, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and respond, "Zhao Yufei, ranked 18th, age twenty-seven, equipped with Silver Hook Armor, Dragon Blood Fierce Dog, skilled in Eight Gates Celestial Eye... highest achievement: killing a late-stage Tier Three Demon People. Odds 1 to 1.1. Hmm, those ranked in the top fifty Martial Cultivators all possess full sets of Battle Armor and are in the late-Third Layer!"
Zhao Yufei’s lips curled into a smile. "Oh, it seems my Silver Hook Armor is quite well-ranked among the various Battle Armors, 18th place... The Feng Family’s information is indeed reliable!"
After speaking, she glanced at Lin Xuankong, her eyes full of disdain.
The surroundings fell silent once more. A Steward spoke up, "Steward Zhao’s strength is indeed formidable among the Third-Layer Martial Cultivators, especially the Silver Hook Armor, crafted from eight hundred Forehead Scales and renowned in the Great Marsh. With this Battle Armor, it’s only fitting for Steward Zhao to be ranked 18th! Steward Lin also has considerable strength, but his equipment is mediocre. Facing this pure battle of strength and equipment in the Demon Slaying Conference would indeed be tough for him; ranking lower is normal!"
In the crowd, Ma Jiang frowned tightly, abruptly stood up, and said, "What’s the point of this damned ranking? It’s not the Hero List of the Great Xia Dynasty’s officials! All this talk, is there anyone among these thousand people who can compare with that hidden Nine-Seal Genius? Is there anyone among these thousand people who can compare with the Conical Hat Guest, who possesses the Twin Vine Demon Pearl and kills Third-Layer demons like chickens? Comparing the small differences between these thousand people, what’s the blasted point? Besides, during the Demon Slaying Conference, is it already decided who will come out alive? If not, there’s no need to talk so much nonsense beforehand! Xuankong, come have a drink with me. I want to see who the hell dares to speak nonsense again!"
