    “Looks like the top few on the Great Xia Dynasty’s Hidden Dragon Rankings all relied on special physiques to get up there!”


    “That’s right. Without special physiques, their Hidden Dragon Rankings would probably be more exaggerated!”


    “Humph, so what if they have unique physiques? They’re still inferior to us!”


    The young elites of the Xi Liang Dynasty scorned with disdain.


    However, they were still jealous.


    After all, everyone hoped to be that most unique person.


    Although they were in the top ten of the Xi Liang Dynasty’s Hidden Dragon Rankings, they were all ordinary physiques apart from Ji Qinn.


    However, a special physique did not necessarily dictate the quality of one’s cultivation talent.


    A person’s potential was equally important. Therefore, although they did not have a special physique, they were still dragons and phoenixes among men.


    “Look, the fourth ce is out!”


    “Murong Xingqiao? The Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty!” Ji Qinn frowned a little when he saw the rankings.


    # 4: Profound Essence Spirit Body (not awakened)


    Constitution Owner: Murong Xingqiao


    Origin: The Royal Family of the Great Xia Dynasty


    Reward: Heaven-tier cultivation technique, Profound Mixed Essence Technique, Holy Spirit Pill.


    “I… I really got on the rankings!” Murong Xingqiao looked at the rankings in disbelief, her eyes filled with excitement.


    “Congrattions, Your Highness! Your Highness is indeed extraordinary!” Shen Qiuming bowed and cupped his fists excitedly.


    He was also surprised. Even though he knew Murong Xingqiao might enter the rankings, he did not expect the crown prince to be ranked fourth.


    And it was even better than Zhu Xiaotian’s Ster Dao Body.


    “Profound Essence Spirit Body!” Murong Xingqiao was surprised and delighted.


    Although she felt hopeful after what Grand Tutor Shen told her previously, she really did not expect to have a special physique. And it ranked fourth as well.


    This was enough to prove how extraordinary this physique was.


    Of course, what made her happier was the Heavenly Dao reward.


    With this Heaven-tier cultivation technique and that pill, her strength could improve even faster.


    In this world where the strong reigned supreme, strength was everything.


    In the face of absolute power, schemes, plots, and power struggles would be meaningless.


    In the Qi King’s Wei family, all the elders looked at the Heavenly Dao Rankings with faces filled with surprise.


    “The Crown Prince is actually ranked fourth!”


    “Profound Essence Spirit Body? I didn’t expect that the Crown Prince had such an extraordinary physique!”


    “It seems that His Highness is really the chosen son of the heavens, the chosen emperor!”


    “Exactly. His Majesty must have had a reason for insisting on making the son of a concubine, without any background, the Crown Prince!”


    “His Majesty has good judgment!”


    “If Murong Xingqiao really rises above the rest, he will lead the Great Xia Dynasty to new heights. The country’s fate will be prosperous!”


    “Cang’er, go and take out the Purple Chestnut Wood from my collections. I need you to personally send it to the Crown Prince to congratte him tomorrow!”


    “Yes, Father!”


    Inside the Prosperity Pce, Murong Taisheng’s expression became extremely gloomy. He never imagined that Murong Xingqiao would actually get on the rankings again.


    And it was ranked that high.


    Once this Profound Essence Spirit Body awakened, with the help of the heaven-tier cultivation technique and the Holy Spirit Pill, his cultivation realm would probably soar.


    The fact that he was ranked sixth on the Hidden Dragon Rankings and fourth on the 3000 Physiques Rankings would bring him incredible prestige and influence.


    The various vassal families and factions were opportunists who acted ording to the situation.


    After Murong Xingqiao entered the Heavenly Dao Rankings twice and obtained Heavenly Dao rewards in session, more and more factions would turn to support him.


    “Damn it, this situation is getting worse!” Murong Taisheng felt coldness brewing inside!


    As countless people were shocked by Murong Xingqiao’s appearance on the rankings, a new name appeared on the Heavenly Dao Rankings.


    # 3: The Great Expanse Dao Body


    Owner of Physique: Su Mu


    Origin: Mo Prefecture’s Feng City’s Su Family


    Reward: Low-grade immortal cultivation technique, Nine Pure Immortal Light Scripture. One Dao Fate Pill.


    “Wow…”


    As the third ce on the Physique Rankings was announced, the entire Jade Pure Dao Sect was in an uproar.


    “A low-grade immortal technique! My word, the reward for third ce is low-grade immortal-tier!”


    “On what basis? It was all heaven-tier cultivation techniques previously. Why is his reward an immortal level technique!”


    “This reward is too much. It’s immortal-tier! Our Jade Pure Dao Sect only has one iplete immortal level technique!”


    “Who is this Su Mu? Why have I never heard of him before?”


    “Feng City’s Su family? I’ve never heard of this family!”


    “It’s probably a small family. It’s normal that we have never heard of it. I’m afraid another hidden prodigy has appeared!”


    “Our Great Xia Dynasty is really filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. There’s Li Yu on the Hidden Dragon Rankings, and now there’s Su Mu on the Physique Rankings!”


    “This reward is too appealing!” The disciples of the Jade Pure Dao Sect discussed animatedly.


    Perfected Yu Hua, Perfected Taiwu, and the other elders were also shocked.


    “There’s really an immortal-tier reward!”


    “The Great Expanse Dao Body… We do have a surprise on the Heavenly Dao Rankings. To think that our Great Xia Dynasty has such a powerful physique hidden all along!”


    “His name isn’t on the Hidden Dragon Rankings. He must be over thirty years old, or he’s still young and hasn’t started cultivating!”


    “Thetter is more likely. If Su Mu was older with such a physique, it’s impossible for us to not know.”


    “Elder Hu, quickly bring people to the Mo Prefecture’s Feng City to investigate this person. If he’s really a young prodigy, do your best to recruit him into our Jade Pure Dao Sect!” Perfected Yu Hua said excitedly.


    He was well aware that a prodigy with such a special physique would surely have limitless potential in the future.


    Furthermore, the Heavenly Dao Rankings reward was a low-grade immortal-tier technique!


    It was too alluring!


    If they could take this child under his wing, they might be able to have this low-grade immortal technique as the sect’s ultimate technique through him.


    The overall strength of the Jade Pure Dao Sect would surely improve further with this immortal technique and advance into one of the top sects on the Huaxia Continent.


    Furthermore, the name of the Nine Pure Immortal Light Scripture matched their sect pretty well.


    Of course, countless sects in the Great Xia Dynasty had the same idea as Perfected Yu Hua at this moment. And the various sects had begun another race against time to recruit talent.


    Meanwhile, Su Mu was in a small vige on the border of Jing Prefecture and Mo Prefecture.


    Hey on a pile of grass and wolfed down the fruits he had just stolen from someone’s vegetable ntation.


    He was a 15-year-old youth with disheveled hair and a dirty face. He was emaciated, and his clothes were tattered to the point he seemed like a beggar.


    Su Mu used to have a happy family and lived a fulfilling and happy life every day.


    His parents ran a restaurant in Feng City, and his family was considered well-to-do.


    He also had two doting older sisters at home in a harmonious and warm family.


    However, all these were destroyed because of the Netherworld Demon Sect and the Wolf King n.


    His parents and family had all died under the des of the Wolf King n.


    His friends andpanions had all died miserably.


    The home he was so familiar with had also been reduced to ruins by the Wolf King’s cavalry.


    His wonderful life, his beautiful family, everything he cherished had been destroyed.


    As for him, who was lucky enough to survive, he could only hide inside the ruins and struggle for his life while being on tenterhooks.


    He could be discovered and killed by the Wolf King’s nsmen who were plundering the city at any moment.


    Hatred and fear filled his heart.


    Pain and despair dictated his life.


    He had thought that he would either die under the de of the Wolf King’s n or starve to death in the ruins sooner orter.


    However, he never imagined that a mysterious expert would appear and kill the Wolf King, drive off the Wolf King’s army, and eliminate the Netherworld Demon Sect.


    That expert saved the Mo Prefecture from misery and saved his life.


    He survived and finally walked out of those ruins.


    As for the mysterious expert, he had be an unrivaled hero in his heart and his savior.


    Later on, he heard that this expert was the Five Elements Sect’s Patriarch, and he also learned about the Hundred Sects’ recruitment.


    Therefore, he headed south from the Mo Prefecture. He begged along the way while traveling towards Nan’an City.


    He hoped to enter the Five Elements Sect during the Hundred Sects Recruitment Assembly.


    Even if he ended up as a servant disciple, it would still be a form of repayment to his savior.


    This was his reason to live, the only hope that kept him going.
