Chapter 315 Message_2
And according to the arrangements of Zhenyang Sect's cultivators, today is the day to regularly update the Demon Hunter Leaderboard.
Even though he already had an idea, with his battle achievements, securing a spot in the Tianfeng Wind Secret Realm was practically a done deal.
Therefore, Lin Tianming had ended his cultivation early, specifically to head to Zhenyang Hall and witness the final ranking on the list.
Thinking about these things, Lin Tianming felt excited, his eyes filled with longing.
Without realizing it, a year and a half had passed since he left the Lin Family.
During this time, he had to join battles intermittently and had sustained some injuries, also going through many life and death trials.
Though it was hard, the rewards were substantial.
Now that the great battles had finally ended, only the results needed to be announced, and many cultivators might be able to leave Yuyao City, and he could return to the Lin Family, whom he missed day and night.
Regathering his focus, Lin Tianming did not delay any further, quickly got up to tidy up the practice room a bit, and then sent a message to Qin Xi.
A short period of time passed.
The two of them sat in the reception room, drinking tea and chatting leisurely.
At that time, Lin Tianming, looking at the excited Qin Xi, teased her with a smile, "Fairy Qin is truly gifted. Having been in Yuyao City for a year and a half, you've managed to break through successfully!"
"Hehe... Lin is joking!"
"This past year, I've been through numerous battles and got quite a few demon beast corpses, which I exchanged for several cultivation-enhancing spiritual fruits.
"Thanks to the sufficient accumulation of my cultivation, it was merely by chance that I made the breakthrough!"
Qin Xi, brushing her hair with one hand and laughing like silver bells, replied.
Hearing her words, Lin Tianming waved his hand and then offered a compliment.
"Fairy Qin is too modest!"
"Fairy Qin was already at the Foundation Establishment Second Layer two years ago when we met, and it's been over two years since then."
"With Fairy Qin's talent, braving such intense battles for two years, breaking through would naturally come as easily as a stream flows into a river, there's no luck about it!"
Blushing slightly at this, Qin Xi couldn't help but let out a light laugh.
"Giggle... Lin really knows how to flatter someone!"
Hearing this delightful laughter, and looking at Qin Xi's stunningly beautiful face, Lin Tianming found himself momentarily captivated.
After finally regaining his composure, Lin Tianming felt a bit embarrassed, thinking to himself that his willpower seemed to be getting weaker and weaker.
He laughed awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.
"Fairy Qin, today is the day the Demon Hunter Leaderboard is updated; there might be significant news. Let's go together and see!"
"Alright, I was just thinking of going out to see for myself Lin's battle achievements," Qin Xi nodded in response.
No sooner had she spoken than Lin Tianming rose to his feet, leading Qin Xi out of the cave dwelling and heading in the direction of Zhenyang Hall.
Along the way, scattered cultivators were all heading towards Zhenyang Hall, evidently wanting to witness the prowess of the cultivators on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard.
Following the crowd, Lin Tianming and Qin Xi chatted and laughed as they walked, the atmosphere very harmonious.
In less than the time it takes to finish a cup of tea, the two arrived at the square in front of Zhenyang Hall.
Looking around, the place had already gathered a lot of cultivators by now, with those at the Foundation Establishment Stage in the front and Qi Refining Cultivators standing further back, watching.
In the meantime, many cultivators whispered excitedly, discussing the war that had persisted for a year and a half.
Lin Tianming and Qin Xi made their way to the very front, and familiar cultivators greeted them, expressing both flattery and envy.
In response, Lin Tianming remained calm, smiling and returning the greetings, appearing very amiable without displaying the airs of a genius cultivator.
Such a modest demeanor, combined with the way the Lin Family handled matters, garnered the goodwill of all the cultivators.
A while later.
As time went by, more and more cultivators arrived, and the square became crowded with people.
His teammates, Hu Yuan and Tang Liusheng, also made their way here, and upon seeing Lin Tianming and Qin Xi, they immediately came over.
From a distance, Hu Yuan's hearty laughter could be heard.
"Lin, I didn't expect you to arrive so early today!"
"Hehe... you fellows are not slow either!" Lin Tianming replied with a smile.
As more people gathered, their small team grew larger, occupying a considerable piece of territory.
The group started to chat casually, exchanging cultivation experiences while discussing the rankings on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard, all the while waiting for the disciples of the Zhenyang Sect to arrive.
Half a quarter of an hour later,
Several cultivators emerged from within the Zhenyang Hall, including Long Qingshui; the others were also ranked individuals on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard.
As they appeared, the cultivators on the square stopped their conversations and fell into silence.
Despite the quiet atmosphere, everyone's face was flushed, and their eyes were brimming with excitement.
Clearly, they were all incredibly eager about the final rankings of the Demon Hunter Leaderboard.
On the high platform, Long Qingshui surveyed all the cultivators and greeted some familiar ones.
When he saw Lin Tianming, he also nodded politely, showing great friendliness.
In the last few rounds of battle, Lin Tianming had shone brightly, attracting the notice of many genius cultivators with his impressive strength and astonishing achievements.
Even those prodigious talents ranked highly on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard, like Long Qingshui, couldn't help but admire him.
In the final elimination task, Lin Tianming had fought side by side with Long Qingshui, cooperating and forming an acquaintance with him.
Therefore, faced with Long Qingshui's goodwill, Lin Tianming did not dare to act arrogantly and quickly returned the salute with clasped hands.
He saluted everyone on the field with clasped hands, and then his loud voice spread throughout the entire square.
"Fellow cultivators, the Demon Beast Army has been vanquished, the great battle in Yuyao City has finally ended, and we, the cultivators of the Human Race, have achieved a decisive victory."
"According to the instructions of our sect's elders, the individual rewards on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard can be claimed within one year at the main hall of either Dragon Mountain Market or Qianchuan Market."
"In addition, the top three individuals on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard will obtain entry quotas to the Tianfeng Wind Secret Realm. In two years, gather at the gates of our sect, where the elders of our sect will lead you to the Secret Realm Entrance."
"Next, once the Demon Hunter Leaderboard has been announced, if you have no other business, you may leave Yuyao City directly."
As soon as these words were spoken, the cultivators on the field burst into cheers, clearly too excited upon hearing the final arrangements.
At this moment, Lin Tianming, like everyone else, felt very excited.
With the clear directions from the high ranks of the Zhenyang Sect, they could finally leave Yuyao City and return to their normal cultivation.
For this moment, numerous loose cultivators and family cultivators had been eagerly awaiting this day.
Now, having finally achieved their wishes, how could they not be overjoyed?
At this point, the many cultivators present were swept into a celebration, forgetting all about the soon-to-be-updated results on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard.
In the lively atmosphere, the cultivators conveyed their joy to each other, reigniting the previously calm scene with enthusiasm.
After a while, the excitement gradually subsided.
The cultivators returned to normal, their eyes intently fixed on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard, showing anticipation.
Then, Long Qingshui, seeing the eager eyes of the crowd, didn't dare to delay, lest he displease anyone.
Under everyone's gaze, he skillfully cast several Law Decrees, striking the Demon Hunter Leaderboard.
In a few breaths' time, the Demon Hunter Leaderboard shone brightly, and the names and achievements of many cultivators were revealed.
Having done this, Long Qingshui glanced at the names on the Demon Hunter Leaderboard and then saluted Lin Tianming with a fist: "Lin!"
"Hehe... my congratulations to you in advance, and I look forward to fighting alongside you once again in the Tianfeng Wind Secret Realm."
Hearing this, Lin Tianming laughed heartily and promptly returned a sentence.
"Long, your esteem for me is an honor, Lin Mou is very flattered. Just as you said, I too look forward to fighting side by side with you again!"
"Indeed, indeed!" Long Qingshui laughed in agreement.
The two exchanged smiles, their eyes revealing mutual admiration, seeming to have a tacit understanding of one another.
Amidst the hubbub, Long Qingshui did not linger and, after greeting a few familiar cultivators, left the square with the Zhenyang Sect cultivators.
