Faced with the provocation from the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty, the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty refused to stand for it.
"It's just the Grandmaster Ranking, what's so great about it?"
"Our Great Song Dynasty still has cultivators."
"It's not like anyone doesn't have them. Our Great Ming Dynasty also has cultivators."
"Not only do we have cultivators, but we also have martial arts masters who have reached the divine level. In addition, we also have Master Zhang."
"You should know that Master Zhang was praised by Mr. Li as a genius with no equal before or since."
Faced with the mockery of the Ming Dynasty's martial arts heroes, the Song Dynasty's martial arts heroes felt utterly wronged!
The Song people all looked at Li Chengqian with a pitiful expression.
"Mr. Li, let's create a Sword God Ranking for our Great Song Dynasty as well."
"The conditions are the same as those of the Ming Dynasty, and duplicate strong individuals are not included in the list."
"Let the Ming Dynasty see that our Song Dynasty is not inferior."
Seeing the pitiful looks on the faces of those people in the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty, Li Chengqian shook his head.
"I'm sorry, I don't intend to create the Great Song Sword God Ranking."
"Why? Isn't the Sword Demon Dugu Qiubai qualified?"
"The Sword Demon Dugu Qiubai is certainly enough, but he is already dead."
"Even if he hadn't died, the Song Dynasty wouldn't have been able to establish a Sword God Ranking because there weren't enough people."
"The martial arts world of the Song Dynasty often went to support the imperial court in resisting foreign enemies, which led to the depletion of talent in the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty."
"You all need to understand one thing: every peerless master started from the weakest point."
"The martial arts world in the Song Dynasty was extremely weak, so it couldn't produce as many masters as it did in the Ming Dynasty."
Upon hearing that Mr. Li had directly sentenced the Song Dynasty to death, the people of the Ming Dynasty's martial arts world were overjoyed.
Hey!
Serves you right for being so arrogant. You thought you were so tough because you had the Five Greats, but now you've been proven wrong.
Although they were very unwilling to see this situation, the people of the Song Dynasty had no choice but to grit their teeth and bear it.
Meanwhile, people in the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty were eager to see what made the Grandmaster Ranking of the Ming Dynasty so unique.
After everyone calmed down, Li Chengqian said, "Cheng Shifei is ranked tenth on the Grandmaster List of the Great Ming Dynasty."
"Cheng Shifei was a disciple of the undefeated and mischievous Gu Santong."
"He is proficient in the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill and the martial arts of the Eight Great Schools, and possesses the lifelong power of Gu Santong."
"After comprehensive consideration, he was placed tenth on the Grandmaster list."
Upon hearing the name Cheng Shifei, everyone paused for a moment, racking their brains before finally remembering it.
Cheng Shifei seems to be the number one secret agent of the Huang family of the Dragon Guard Villa.
Although this identity isn't bad, it just doesn't quite make sense to put it on the list.
Moreover, his martial arts skills don't seem to have anything particularly unique about them!
Thinking of this, the people of the Jianghu in the Song Dynasty started to cause trouble.
“Mr. Li, Cheng Shifei seems alright, but there’s nothing particularly unique about him.”
"That doesn't seem unusual."
Upon hearing this, the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty also turned its attention to Li Chengqian.
Cheng Shifei's martial arts skills are indeed not bad, but they don't seem to be unique.
Faced with the doubts of the crowd, Li Chengqian smiled calmly.
“Sir, it seems you didn’t hear what Mr. Li said clearly just now.”
"I'm referring to the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, not the martial arts realm of Shaolin Temple, Vajra Indestructible."
Is there any difference between them?
The Jianghu traveler from the Song Dynasty was completely bewildered; the names sounded almost identical!
"Hehehe!"
"Of course there are differences, and the differences are huge."
"Indestructible Vajra is the highest level of Hunyuan Tongzi Gong, one of the Shaolin's unique skills."
"This is a martial art (Nuo Li Hao) that focuses on physical defense."
"But the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill was created by the Strange Hero of Tianchi."
"Once mastered, this martial art is not as focused on defense as the Hunyuan Tongzi Gong."
"Instead, it will be a comprehensive upgrade, with speed and strength increasing exponentially, while also making one's spirit, energy, and vitality a unified whole."
"It possesses unparalleled defensive power, and the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill has no weak point."
"Another characteristic of using the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill is that it is not affected by external forces such as acupoint striking, poisoning, or the Star Absorption Technique."
"In other words, we are facing such an enemy."
"You only have two choices: one is to forcefully break through the defense using unparalleled methods."
"Any other option is to keep wearing him down until he runs out of internal energy before killing him."
"Also, a reminder: when Cheng Shifei uses the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, he can fight against a Grandmaster at the peak."
Jianghu Traveler of the Great Song Dynasty:
Is tenth place really that impressive?
Chapter 321 The Fierce Competition for the Grandmaster Ranking, Lianxing's Crisis
After hearing Li Chengqian's description, everyone in the inn gaped in astonishment.
They really hadn't expected that the tenth-ranked Grandmaster of the Ming Dynasty would be so formidable.
"Mr. Li, Cheng Shifei is so talented, why is he only ranked tenth?"
A wandering swordsman stammered as he asked the question.
Faced with this question, Li Chengqian smiled slightly and said, "Cheng Shifei's Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill does have its unique aspects."
"But before he used the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, he was just an ordinary grandmaster."
"If someone launches a surprise attack, Cheng Shifei might not be able to withstand it."
"That's why I ranked Cheng Shifei tenth."
Room No. 9, Tianzi.
"Little Feifei, I never imagined you were so amazing that you actually made it onto the Grandmaster List of the Ming Dynasty."
Faced with Princess Yunluo's praise, Cheng Shifei immediately replied proudly, "Of course!"
"Your husband's martial arts skills are among the top ten in the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, how could I be worthy of my princess wife?"
Cheng Shifei and Yunluo were showing off their affection on the side, while Duan Tianya and the others frowned.
The group originally planned to rescue Zhu Wushi during the chaos of Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue's duel.
But after entering the prison, they discovered that all the shackles on their adoptive father had been removed.
Moreover, the prison cells had been transformed into magnificent structures, and the entire prison was unguarded, as if it were welcoming everyone to rescue Zhu Wushi in 967.
But even stranger things happened next. Instead of coming out, the adoptive father stayed in the prison and refused to leave.
He even said he needed to think things through himself.
This perplexing situation left Duan Tianya and the others completely bewildered.
Left with no other choice, he returned to Ping An Inn, hoping to get some hints from Li Chengqian.
Thinking of this, Duan Tianya frowned even more and looked at the people around him.
Yidao has a straightforward personality and wouldn't expect so many twists and turns.
Su Xin was too weak to even kill a chicken, and she was not a member of the imperial court, so her role was practically zero.
As for Cheng Shifei and Yunluo...
They were just trying to liven things up; they wouldn't notice any of that.
Wan Sanqian, who had been helping everyone, suddenly stopped. Cao Zhengchun readily agreed to help, and the godfather hid in the prison and refused to come out.
Everything seemed shrouded in a fog, making it impossible to see clearly or understand.
After the murmurs below subsided, Li Chengqian put down his teacup and said, "Ninth on the Grandmaster List of the Great Ming Dynasty, Yihua Palace, Lianxing."
"Lianxing, the Second Palace Mistress of Yihua Palace."
"He is practicing the Mingyu Gong, the top-tier internal energy cultivation method of the Yihua Palace."
"Although Mingyu Kung Fu may not be unprecedented or unparalleled, it can still be said to be the best of its time."
“Ming refers to the sun and moon, and jade is the essence of heaven and earth. It takes the creation of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon, hence it is called Mingyu (bright jade).”
"Upon cultivating to the sixth level of the Bright Jade Skill, one can rival the top masters of the era."
"But Lianxing has reached the eighth level of Mingyu Gong, the supreme state of forgetting oneself and others, where one forgets both self and things."
"With such strength, if not invincible in the martial arts world, one is at least at the pinnacle of the martial arts world."
"After careful consideration, it has been placed ninth."
Room No. 2, Class 1 (Tianzi)

A delicate ceramic cup was crushed to pieces, and Lianxing's expression showed a hint of anger.
This is quite different from Lianxing's usual calm and wise demeanor.
On the other hand, Yaoyue, standing to the side, wore a smug expression and offered a casual word of comfort.
"Little sister, don't be angry. I think Mr. Li's comments are very fair!"
