Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7006

Chapter 6916: Take Care

Wei Wuming’s battle technique, capable of summoning his own illusory image, was arguably among the strongest of its kind. However, the backlash from being forcefully broken was also the greatest.

*Pfft!

* Wei Wuming spat out a mouthful of star blood, his aura chaotic, his body trembling violently.

These were all negative effects.

Clearly, the exchange had produced such a result; there was no need for them to continue fighting.

Wei Wuming clutched his chest with one hand, the other raised high, and decisively said, “I concede.”

His entire demeanor was completely exhausted.

The battle was over.

*Boom!!*

At this moment, the entire arena trembled, and the disciples who had been watching the battle all stared wide-eyed!

“Just over a hundred years ago, the two fought fiercely, evenly matched. Today, Li Tianming defeated Wei Wuming in a single move?”

“So what? He just broke through on his first attempt at the Dao. Isn’t it normal for him to lose to Wei Wuming now?”

“Are you an idiot? Breaking through one level is normal, but do you think the difference between them is only one level?”

“Li Tianming has broken through two levels in a hundred years! Wei Wuming will never catch up. Li Tianming will climb higher and higher, becoming an insurmountable mountain in his path!”

Yu Shang looked at Li Tianming with eyes full of admiration. She said enviously, “Junior Brother Li, your time spent listening to the Dao was truly worthwhile…”

Meanwhile, the powerful figures in the private room on the high platform all had ugly expressions.

The more talented Li Tianming was, the more he slapped their faces. Now they no longer spoke of Li Tianming, to avoid being verbally abused by the women.

The two stepped down from the Emperor’s Battle Platform one after the other, with Li Tianming emerging victorious.

Wei Wuming lost his Emperor Points twice, the second time to Li Tianming by one-tenth of his Emperor Points.

The Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking is a points-based system; victory doesn’t directly replace the opponent’s ranking, but rather improves the ranking through the accumulation of Emperor Points.

With this newfound Emperor Point, Li Tianming’s ranking on the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking jumped from a low of 101st to 74th, while Wei Wuming dropped from 63rd to 75th!

He is now ranked one place lower than Li Tianming on the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking!

Upon seeing this change in the rankings…

*Pfft!*

Wei Wuming, enraged, aggravated his injuries and spat out another mouthful of Star Blood.

“Damn it…”

At this moment, everyone’s attention was focused on Li Tianming, and no one noticed him coughing up blood alone in the corner.

In reality, the top 100 on the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking rarely participate in battles.

There are 100 spots in the top 100, and most geniuses only aspire to sit and listen to the teachings.

Yu Shang, however, is truly helpless; with her completely marginal strength, if she doesn’t constantly fight and try to squeeze in, she probably won’t even qualify for a seat.

Of course, some people, in pursuit of fame, will keep challenging themselves, like Wei Wuming, who was hailed as the number one genius of the living emperors because of his performance on the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking.

The benefits of this weren’t just satisfying his vanity; it also allowed him to secure more cultivation resources allocated by his family.

He had lost to Li Tianming before and wanted to make up for lost points, ideally restoring his original ranking, so he rushed to participate in the battle after replenishing his Dao Plants.

Unexpectedly, he encountered Li Tianming upon his return and lost again.

Tragic!

After this defeat, Wei Wuming still calmly congratulated Li Tianming, but there was something strange about it.

Wei Wuming said with a half-smile, “Junior Brother Li’s talent is unparalleled throughout history; I truly admire him.”

Jiang Beichen, standing nearby, frowned and quickly interjected, “Senior Brother Wei, a genius is a genius, but you shouldn’t use ‘unparalleled throughout history’ to praise someone.”

Wei Wuming gave Jiang Beichen a meaningful look, then glanced at Li Tianming.

Li Tianming said calmly, “I am a seeker of the Dao, only walking the path of becoming stronger, never claiming any title.”

Wei Wuming coldly said, “You don’t claim to be a genius, but your amazing performance will naturally have people speaking up for you. You’d better watch yourself.”

After saying that, he ignored everyone’s reaction and walked past Li Tianming, leaving. Before leaving, he slightly turned his head to look at Li Tianming’s white-haired back.

Apart from Jiang Beichen, who was a little sensitive to this topic, the others didn’t take it too seriously.

After all, they were all young people under the emperor’s command, and they were all unconvinced, thinking, “Is it wrong to have too much talent?”

After Wei Wuming left, Yu Shang asked, “Junior Brother Li, seventy should be enough for you to cultivate steadily on the steps of the Lingxiao Imperial Palace. Do you want to continue fighting?”

Li Tianming smiled slightly and said, “I still want to test where my limits are. I’ll stop fighting after challenging some more experts.”

“Alright, then I’ll continue to push and try to get into the top 100 again.” Yu Shang chuckled.

Her voice was actually quite pleasant; without seeing her in person, one might mistake her for a great beauty of the human race.

Of course, the Ghost God Clan had its own set of aesthetics; within their own race, a slender figure and a pure, flawless, jade-like body like hers were considered absolutely beautiful.

Yu Zhao, standing beside her, seemed serious with her round head, but was actually completely mesmerized.

Li Tianming nodded upon hearing this, saying, “Yes, I wish Senior Sister Yu all the best. I can watch your battle while I wait for my chance to participate.”

So, for the next period, Li Tianming continued his battle in the Ten Thousand Emperors War.

The battles continued.

In the blink of an eye, ten years passed…

In these ten years, he hadn’t even encountered a single opponent in the top 100 of the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking; he mostly encountered opponents ranked several thousandth.

These opponents posed no challenge to him; although he could easily win, it wasn’t very meaningful because their Emperor Points were very low. Over a hundred battles in ten years had only brought Li Tianming limited Emperor Points.

Ultimately, Li Tianming’s ranking on the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking reached sixty-sixth.

“Damn! How come there’s not a single one who can fight? Being invincible is truly lonely…” Li Tianming said

, feigning melancholy. “Stop arguing. I’ll reward you with the number one spot on the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking and you’ll behave yourself,” Sui Shenyao sneered.

“It’s not a bad thing if they really come. They can let me see the gap between me and the strongest disciple of the Heavenly Emperor Sect right now,” Li Tianming said with a smirk.

It seemed he was serious when he said that.

“I’ll wait for the final battle. If there’s still no opponent in the top 100, I won’t fight.”

Li Tianming made his final decision. After all, dragging things out like this was a waste of time, so it was better to focus on improving his cultivation in other areas first.

At this moment, Aurora whispered in his ear, “Based on your strength, you should be able to make it into the top fifty, but unfortunately, the top hundred disciples don’t participate in many battles, so they almost never encounter strong enemies…”
