"Buzz!"

The light beam soared into the sky from the middle platform, much like a shooting star that had cut through the sky. It carried an extremely bright glow before finally smashing ruthlessly onto the enormous stone tablet in front of a countless number of shocked gazes.

If you want to enter the Hidden Dragon Rank, you must attack the stone pillar with all of your strength. The stone pillar will be distributed with your potential.

"Bam!"

Boom!" The surrounding crowd only heard a muffled sound as the extremely resplendent draconic whale shadow smashed into the Hidden Dragon Rank. Then, the earth trembled slightly as an unusual light erupted from the Hidden Dragon Rank and a golden light rose up the enormous stone tablet at an astonishing speed.

Within a few breaths, the upper half of the words had already rushed in.

"This... This kid is actually so terrifying, it seems like he can at least make it to the top 30! "

It could be said that the Hidden Dragon Rankings was the benchmark for the strength of the entire Five Great Sacred Academies. Just the number of people in the Eastern Heavens Sacred Courtyard alone would number in the hundreds of thousands, and the total number of people in the Five Great Sacred Academies would probably exceed a million.

Moreover, these millions of people were the elites of large empires and sects. It was easy to imagine how difficult it was to rank in the top hundred amongst these elites. However, this freshman, who had been at the Eastern Heavens Holy Academy for less than a day, had actually directly charged into the top thirty of the Hidden Dragon Ranking!

"The potential of this freshman is actually this terrifying."

"Looks like a few extraordinary demon-level geniuses have come to our Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy this year."

"I'm afraid there's no way for us old fellows to survive. Why did we cause such a huge commotion the moment we arrived?"

"What are you afraid of? There is Liu Changan, who has always been the number one in the Hidden Dragon Rank. With him here, these freshmen won't be able to make it for long."

"..."

The change in the Hidden Dragon Rank caused countless students to start whispering to each other. As these sounds echoed out, their gazes were cast towards the stone tablet at the middle platform.

Under the stares from the crowd, the golden light continued to move forward like a carp leaping over a dragon gate. When it gradually slowed down, it stopped at the 19th and 18th position.

Finally, there were a lot of people rushing towards the central platform. They also wanted to see who was so strong that they could charge into the top twenty of the Hidden Dragon Rank in one second.

Although the top 100 rankings of the Hidden Dragon Rankings frequently changed, those were only ranked at the bottom. It was extremely rare for someone to directly charge into the top 20 rankings like today, because those that were able to enter the top 20 were all extremely monstrous existences.

And now, this guy had rushed to the seventeenth position.

Not long after the golden light stopped at the 17th position, it once again moved forward and finally stopped at the 16th position. The 16th place before had also slipped down to the 17th place.

"That's Liu Huai's ranking, right?" "This guy spent so much effort to get into the 16th position, but it hasn't even been a few days and he's already gotten rid of it."

Some of the older students from the Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy also gloated as they laughed. After which, their gazes converged on the 16th position on the Hidden Dragon Rank. The golden light at that location also began to gather, bit by bit, before finally transforming into a few simple words.

Ranked 16th on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, Xia Hun Wu, cultivation at the third level of the Soul Origin realm.

"Soul... Third level of the Soul Origin Realm? "

The originally noisy central platform instantly became eerily quiet. Then, one after another, the sounds of shock after another became earth-shattering. That brat was only at the 3rd level of the Soul Origin Stage, how did he manage to reach the 16th rank?

One must know that the ones with the lowest cultivation in the Hidden Dragon Rank were all Spirit Stage. However, the simple words in front of them caused everyone to be stunned.

This kind of thing had never happened in the Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy for so many years!

"Then what is Xia Hengwu's background?" Could it be that the Five Great Sacred Sects were trying to cause trouble? "

"Could it be that he consumed some drug to unleash such power?"

"That shouldn't be the case. How could he not be able to tell the origin of the Soul Martial Pillar from his own soul power?"

"Hehe, this is going to be interesting. He's at the 3rd level of the Soul Origin Stage, yet he's ranked 16th on the Hidden Dragon Rank. However, with Liu Yi's personality, he definitely won't let this matter rest. Being struck down by a brat at the Soul Origin Stage is simply shameful!"

"That's for sure. Not only Liu Huai, even the seniors behind Xia Hun Wu might not be able to sit still."

"This kid, he poked a hornet's nest on the first day he arrived. He really is a troublemaker!"

"…"

On the platform at the center, countless pairs of eyes were looking at the Hidden Dragon Ranking on the Soul Martial Pillar and conversing. However, most of their words contained a trace of sympathy and it was likely that this Xia Hun Wu was just a hothead. He had just arrived at the Eastern Heavens Holy Academy and had yet to even stand firm before offending so many people.

Perhaps the old students were unfamiliar with the dazzling name on the ranking board, but they were extremely familiar with it. Not to mention that Liu Jingyan had caused a ruckus on the central platform, it was likely that very few of the new students did not know Xia Hun Wu.

Who would have thought that this fellow would be so formidable? It was only the first day he arrived at the Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy, yet he had already charged straight to the sixteenth rank of the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

At this moment, within a house to the north, Liu Jingyan, who had already entered a state of cultivation, slowly opened his eyes. He immediately raised his head and looked at the Hidden Dragon Ranking that was emitting a golden glow.

No wonder this brat was able to defeat Ye Qing, who was at the seventh level of the Spirit Stage.

"However, I still don't know how to restrain myself. Those older students who can be ranked on the Hidden Dragon Rank are not good people." In his eyes, Xia Hun Wu's reckless actions had undoubtedly caused him a great deal of trouble. These senior students would not let him off so easily. Perhaps, he might not even need to take part in the Freshman Competition three months from now.

"I'll let you feel proud of yourself first. Hopefully, you will be able to endure these three months. Otherwise, I won't have much fun during the Freshman Competition." Liu Jingyan slowly clenched his fists. His eyes were filled with an ice-cold chill.

"In this Eastern Heavens Spiritual Academy, only Big Brother Liu is enough."

In several other directions of the Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy, Xuan Qing and Li Feisha had also noticed the change in the Hidden Dragon Rank. Their eyes slowly focused on the familiar name as a faint luster flickered within.

Looks like this time around, it was not only Soul Domain amongst the new students. Those twelve super empires had also produced quite a number of powerful individuals. The Freshman Competition three months later would become extremely lively.
