Feeling the roar of the truck, all these cultivators were somewhat terrified; they had never seen such a steel behemoth before.
They hoped this raging beast wouldn’t eat them up in a fit of anger.
After scanning his surroundings a few times, Li Xiaobai parked the truck next to a huge stele that was quite conspicuous and had dense inscriptions all over it.
People’s Ranking:
First place: Xi Yao, the number one beauty of the Immortal Spirit Continent.
Second place: Little Monk Liao Chen.
Third place: Who doesn’t know Chen Haotian.
…
This was the ranking list that his senior brothers and sisters talked about; the names on these lists were engraved by the cultivators themselves and were synchronized across the entire mainland.
If you inscribed your name at any one place, it would show up across the whole mainland.
However, the names these geniuses had inscribed didn’t seem very serious; aside from their names, they also added a string of prefixes.
Some cultivators had the same prefix, indicating they were geniuses from a small group, like the eleventh-ranked Ning Zetian, and the twelfth-ranked Jing Zhongyue, who must be teammates with the third-ranked Chen Haotian.
Similarly, there were the disciples of the Buddhist Sect, whose prefixes were basically all “Little Monk.” Out of the top ten thousand names displayed on the list, the prefix “Little Monk” was particularly conspicuous, indicating that the Buddhist Sect’s organization was vast.
What rendered Li Xiaobai speechless was the fifth-ranked prodigy.
People’s Ranking:
Fifth place: Su Mei’er, who is a hundred times more beautiful than Xi Yao.
This name felt like it was reaching for the heavens. He couldn’t understand the world of geniuses; was name selection always so casual? It seemed full of resentment.
Li Xiaobai continued to look down the list.
This was an excellent chance to understand the geniuses of the Immortal Spirit Continent.
Through these geniuses’ names, one could roughly estimate the sects they belonged to. The most numerous were the Buddhist Sect disciples, whose names started with the prefix “Little Monk,” with the rest having a wide variety of names.
On the People’s Ranking, Li Xiaobai spotted quite a few acquaintances.
The Northwest’s Yu Sanbian ranked just over four thousand, and Xiang Tiandi ranked over eight thousand, with a cultivator named Brother Fist right beside Xiang Tiandi, someone he had briefly encountered at the Holy Demon Sect.
Yu Sanbian, a rare talent who gave Golden Spear Overlord, at the full Nascent Soul Stage, a good fight with just a half-step Nascent Soul, could still only rank over four thousand. Truly, geniuses were fearsome.
“Woof, lad, this Zhang Rui actually made it onto the list too, right at the ten thousandth place!” Ergouzi exclaimed as if he had found a new world.
“Giggle, let’s get on the list quickly and squeeze him out—annoy him to death!” Ji Wuqing said excitedly.
“Okay, let’s get on the list too, we need a good name!”
Li Xiaobai nodded, excited since this was the first time he was experiencing such an affair.
He drew out his longsword and inscribed on the stele using Sword Qi.
“Begging for Death Li Xiaobai!”
“Awesome Cool Ergouzi!”
“Pudong Rooster Ji Wuqing!”
“Woof, lad, it’s Lord Ergouzi, let Lord Ergouzi inscribe himself!” Ergouzi complained.
“I am the Undying Phoenix, what in the world is a Pudong Rooster?” Ji Wuqing was also clearly displeased.
“Be happy you even have a name, inscribe it yourself, do you have any cultivation?”
Li Xiaobai curled his lip, these two were always boasting all day long but had not practiced cultivation at all—typical slackers.
Before the dog and rooster could protest further, suddenly, the stele’s smooth surface spun, and the three names they had just inscribed disappeared at once.
At the same time, several names at the bottom of the stele were replaced, and three golden tokens flew out.
Li Xiaobai caught them; these were tokens of the ranking list. With these tokens, he could check the ranking information anywhere, anytime from now on.
People’s Ranking.
Nine thousand nine hundred ninety-eighth place: Begging for Death Li Xiaobai.
Rank 9999: Cool and awe-inspiring Ergouzi.
Rank 10000: Pudong Rooster Ji Wuqing.
Li Xiaobai was amazed, “It actually worked, we did absolutely nothing but still made it onto the leaderboard, what great luck.”
“Cackle, with my supreme cultivation level, not getting the top spot on the Celestial Leaderboard is already letting it slide, how could it be possible that I’m merely at the humble rank of 10000 on the Human Leaderboard? There must be a mistake!”
Ji Wuqing was very annoyed.
“Woof, you lousy chicken, even getting rank 10000 is giving you face. It’s an honor for you to be ranked just behind your Lord Ergouzi.”
Ergouzi felt a bit smug; the facts proved that it was a tad stronger than Ji Wuqing.
The fact that a chicken and a dog made it onto the leaderboard was beyond Li Xiaobai’s expectations. On a normal day, these two did nothing but talk big, and he barely ever saw their real abilities, yet now they could directly climb onto the Human Leaderboard, which was indeed impressive.
However, now that the three of them were on the leaderboard, Zhang Rui, who was originally ranked at 10000, was directly bumped off.
Besides the Human Leaderboard, the stele also listed the Earth Leaderboard and the Celestial Leaderboard. The only person Li Xiaobai recognized on the Earth Leaderboard was Ou Yezi, the Sect Leader of Holy Demon Sect, ranked at 8000.
As for the Celestial Leaderboard, he didn’t recognize a single person.
However, the names of the powerhouses on the Celestial Leaderboard seemed less like actual names and more like they were promoting their own products.
Celestial Leaderboard.
Rank 1: Mei Changqing, available for long-term promotions.
Rank 2: Elder Tianji from Immortal Spirit Daily.
Rank 3: Female cultivator Xi Yao with Moon Cicada Preserving Youth Technique.
Rank 4: This old monk Xuan Bei crowdfunding temples.
Rank 5: Genius assassin Li Feiyang
…
Looking at these bigwigs’ names, Li Xiaobai had a strange look on his face. These big shots are quite cheeky.
This level of advertising placement couldn’t be more obvious; compared to them, my own ‘Begging for a Speedy Death’ seems a bit lowbrow.
No matter, once my business is booming in the future, I’ll also change my name for live commerce, ‘Tangneng First-class Li Xiaobai’ sounds pretty good.
“All right, let’s leave it at that for now, let’s go in and try to find some great treasures,” he said.
…
At the same time, on a mountain peak somewhere in Central Province, an attendant student was holding an abacus, frowning as if he were constantly calculating something, mumbling to himself.
“That’s not right, why is there a disturbance of stars in the Northern Region?”
“And furthermore, three completely unknown individuals have managed to get on the leaderboard, it’s simply inconceivable. Who are these people, really?”
“No, I can’t make heads or tails of this. I won’t be able to sleep tonight if I don’t figure it out. I must go ask my master.”
The attendant student put away his abacus and disappeared in a flash.
At the entrance of Tianbei Secret Realm, Li Xiaobai drove into the secret realm.
With the truck there, there shouldn’t be any dangers within the secret realm that could threaten him.
It was at this moment that the system panel in front of him suddenly started to flicker.
[Achievement: Trouble Magnet (2/108)]
[Detecting the presence of Blood Sacrifice Fragments x2 nearby.]
Hmm?
Blood Sacrifice Fragments?
These must be the fragments that that Evil Cultivator leader was desperately searching for. One piece could increase my Attribute Points by 10000, this kind of treasure cannot be missed.
Li Xiaobai slowed the truck down and began to look through the marketplace, hoping to find a Divine Artifact that could locate objects.
[An embroidered shoe: Toss a shoe to reveal the way, speak your desire, throw out the shoe, and it will point you in the right direction. (One hundred top-grade Spirit Stones)]
[Note: As long as luck is on your side, no troubles in life.]
Li Xiaobai’s eyes lit up, this is good stuff!
