The so-called Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings are actually composed of two lists, corresponding to the Body Tempering realm and the Aperture Tempering realm. As for the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, it is not within the scope of the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings.

Whether it is the ranking for the Body Tempering realm or the Aperture Tempering realm, only the top thirty are selected. In other words, only the top thirty will be displayed on the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings, while the rest are just running alongside.

The ranking for the Body Tempering realm is commonly known as the “Small Ranking,” and the one for the Aperture Tempering realm is naturally referred to as the “Big Ranking.”

In Boundless Sea, there are a great number of martial practitioners, possibly nourished by the rich natural Primordial Energy of Heaven and Earth from the moment they are born.

Therefore, the most fierce competition actually takes place on the Small Ranking for the Body Tempering realm because it has the most practitioners.

So, for those who can make it to the Small Ranking, as long as they don’t fall midway, it’s almost inevitable that they will break through to the Aperture Tempering realm later on, and these individuals will demonstrate exceptionally outstanding performance in the Aperture Tempering realm.

The Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings have been ongoing for many years. Someone has specially counted, and it was found that many of those who made it to the Small Ranking in their day eventually appeared on the Big Ranking after several years in the Aperture Tempering realm, with a rate of two to three out of ten.

Juniors with outstanding talent generally maintain their excellence and seldom experience a sudden decline later on, especially those who have emerged in the top thirty among thousands of competitors. Their value is unquestionably remarkable.

Compared to the Small Ranking, there are slightly fewer participants attempting the Big Ranking in the Aperture Tempering realm, but when it comes to actual numbers, it is still a significant figure.

In the Boundless Sea, practitioners in the Aperture Tempering realm were not considered rare within the Thousand Feather Alliance. Compared to the days of Immortal Cloud City, where nearly every practitioner in the Aperture Tempering realm was well-known, those in the Aperture Tempering realm within the Thousand Feather Alliance were at most renowned within their own territory.

Once you ventured outside your faction’s influence, hardly anyone would know your name. This was because the Thousand Feather Alliance was vast, and there were numerous practitioners in the Aperture Tempering realm.

Even those at the pinnacle of the Aperture Tempering realm were known at most to a dozen or so neighboring factions; that was already considered having a significant reputation.

If one wanted to truly make a name for themselves throughout the entire Thousand Feather Alliance, they could only do so by making it into the top thirty of the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings. Each name on that list was practically famous.

While making it onto the list didn’t guarantee reaching the Combined Aperture Tempering realm in the future, it was a fact that a high proportion of those on the list did achieve Combined Aperture Tempering realm status. This big ranking list was essentially a pool of candidates for future Combined Aperture Tempering realm practitioners.

Chen Fei’s figure flickered as he leaped onto the back of the demonic beast and made a courteous gesture towards Shao Yongmin.

“I wonder, sir, if you’d like to hear the rules of the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings?” Shao Yongmin returned the gesture.

Every pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm practitioner had the potential to reach the Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Although Shao Yongmin had an extraordinary background, he still maintained a respectful attitude towards such experts. After all, Shao Yongmin’s own strength was only in the later stages of the Aperture Tempering realm.

“I hope for some clarification,” Chen Fei nodded.

“The Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings are magical treasures held by Master Haiyue. To challenge the rankings, you need to pay fifty low-grade Primordial stones each time. If you can break into the top thirty, we won’t discuss matters of reputation here, but within the rankings, you can infuse your weapon with spiritual essence on the spot, and you will also receive a Haiyue Token,” Shao Yongmin explained with a soft smile.

Some people cared about their reputation, while others didn’t. To attract prodigies who didn’t care about reputation, the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings offered two additional benefits.

Infusing a weapon with spiritual essence was a significant advantage for any weapon, even if it was just a subsidiary weapon of a spiritual treasure. It could bring about considerable changes in the weapon, given the gap between spiritual treasures and spiritual weapons in terms of tiers.

In addition to weapon infusion, there was the Haiyue Token. This token led to a cave specially established by Master Haiyue, which opened every fifteen years and contained an unknown number of rare treasures.

Many people competed for these treasures, but if one’s strength was sufficient, they could return with a full haul.

Of course, Haiyue Tokens were not limited to just thirty; they were distributed through other means as well. However, for prodigies, obtaining a Haiyue Token from the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings was the simplest route.

“Haiyue Token?” Chen Fei’s expression shifted slightly. He was aware of the concept of weapon infusion, and it was one of the primary reasons for his visit this time. After all, his Qianyuan Sword was currently only a top-grade spiritual weapon, and there was still a long way to go before it could become a top-tier spiritual treasure.

According to the normal course of progress, it would likely take Chen Fei two to three decades, or even longer, to elevate the Qianyuan Sword to the level of a top-tier spiritual treasure. During such an extended period, Chen Fei might even break through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, making the Qianyuan Sword progressively less impactful for him.

However, if he could obtain a single infusion of spiritual essence for his weapon, it would significantly accelerate the Qianyuan Sword’s growth. That’s why Chen Fei had come here. Exchanging fifty Primordial stones for this opportunity was entirely worthwhile.

As for the Haiyue Token, Chen Fei had heard of it before. He didn’t expect to find it here, but he realized that within the Haiyue Cave, he could likely acquire the rare elixirs and spiritual materials he needed for his cultivation, which would be hard to come by elsewhere.

This challenge to the rankings seemed to address both of his concerns in one go-

Of course, it was imperative to break into the top thirty to obtain these two rewards. Given the vastness of the Thousand Feather Alliance and the fact that the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings extended not only throughout the alliance but also into other areas of the Boundless Sea, achieving a genuine ranking was an exceedingly challenging task.

Furthermore, based on what Chen Fei had learned, not all of the current top thirty individuals on the big ranking were pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm practitioners; some were in the mid or late stages of the Aperture Tempering realm.

This ranking assesses the combat power and potential exhibited by practitioners at the same level. Typically, pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm practitioners have the best control over their power at their level, but it’s not impossible for some young prodigies to shine brightly even before reaching the peak.

“Thank you for the explanation!” Chen Fei bowed and handed over the package on his back, which contained the fifty low-grade Primordial stones. Chen Fei’s already limited Primordial stone reserves were now even more depleted.

“Please!” Shao Yongmin lightly tossed the fifty low-grade Primordial stones, and a strong suction force emerged, causing all fifty Primordial stones to fall into the mouth of the beast beneath their feet.

Hearing the crunchy sound from below, Chen Fei smiled faintly and then entered the cave entrance beneath the mountain.

The sensation was similar to entering the Enlightenment Tower, but there were noticeable differences. When Chen Fei opened his eyes, he found himself in a training arena.

The arena was quite large, and beyond it, there was only mist and clouds, obscuring visibility further.

“Hum!”

The spiritual energy in the entire arena trembled slightly, and three figures appeared in front of Chen Fei. Their auras were fully exposed, and all of them were in the advanced Aperture Tempering realm.

For the opening trial, three opponents in the advanced Aperture Tempering realm had been provided based on Chen Fei’s current cultivation level.

While practitioners at the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm were undoubtedly much stronger than those in the advanced Aperture Tempering realm, the latter were not to be underestimated, especially when their numbers increased, posing a significant threat.

“Please!” The three opponents on the other side bowed.

“Please!” Chen Fei also returned the gesture.

In the next moment, the three opponents blurred and disappeared from their original positions. When they reappeared, they were already surrounding Chen Fei. Their sharp auras pressed down on him, and their attacks aimed directly at vital points on his body.

With a perfect state of mind, it seemed like the movements of the three opponents had slowed down. Chen Fei’s eyes shifted, allowing him to observe the various details within their techniques.

With a single glance, there were no more secrets.

With a casual sweep of the Qianyuan Sword in his hand, the Primordial energy from the 108 meridians in his body surged, creating a powerful force. Even without the enhancement of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s physique, the power he displayed now exceeded his peak before his breakthrough.

“Boom!”

With just a simple strike, the coordinated attack from the three advanced Aperture Tempering realm opponents was broken. This was the sheer dominance of cultivation level.

The three opponents crashed into the ground, leaving three massive craters. However, they quickly got up, remaining vigilant as they watched Chen Fei, prepared to prevent him from charging in for a follow-up attack.

As Chen Fei observed the reactions of the three opponents, his gaze subtly shifted. Based on what he knew, the opponents here were recreated from the information left behind by the challengers who came before. In other words, the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings had extracted the combat data of those previous challengers and used their own power to recreate them.

With the power of a spiritual treasure controlling the cultivation levels of those in the Aperture Tempering realm, it was effortless to deeply replicate the fighting styles of the past challengers. Therefore, the three opponents felt just like real individuals to Chen Fei, with no discernible differences.

After pausing for a moment in the distance and seeing that Chen Fei had not moved, the three opponents rushed at him once again. This time, they didn’t split up but charged at him together.

It was evident that they knew splitting up and surrounding Chen Fei was ineffective. Instead, they opted for a direct frontal assault, even adopting a life-or-death attitude to strive for their last chance at victory.

A slight smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face as he felt something, although it wasn’t enough to make him excited. However, there was at least some progress.

Hundreds of miles away, on Primordial Water Island.

Primordial Water Island was where the Primordial Sword Sect and the Sunken Water Pavilion, the two sects, were currently located. The island was named by taking one character from each of the sects’ names.

Ji Ruiqing, the Sect Master of the Sunken Water Pavilion, and Qu Qingsheng, the head of the Primordial Sword Sect, stood together, observing the individuals who were bound before them.

“In recent days, there have been more people attempting to explore the island. It seems that some factions may be showing interest in us,” Wu Guangyin said in a deep voice.

“It’s been over half a year since we settled here, so it’s only natural that they would want to test us,” Ji Ruiqing replied quietly.

In the world of ordinary people, survival of the fittest was a harsh reality, and the world of martial practitioners was no different, if not even more direct. To progress, martial practitioners needed to compete for various resources.

Primordial Water Island was located in a remote area with few valuable resources nearby, but that didn’t deter others from being curious about the Primordial Sword Sect and the Sunken Water Pavilion. If they perceived weakness, they wouldn’t hesitate to come and take a piece of the pie to satisfy their needs.

“Continue to strengthen our vigilance. Anyone who crosses the line must be captured,” Qu Qingsheng said sternly.

In the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Rankings.

Chen Fei swept his sword horizontally, and the Qianyuan Sword’s blade cut through the bodies of the three opponents. The three opponents burst into countless points of light, disappearing from view.

The entire training arena trembled slightly, and five figures appeared in front of Chen Fei..
