Chapter 253 Golden Lists Decide Martial Fame (Part 1)

The martial world’s disputes resolved, the Golden Lists decided martial fame. These ten words had not been spoken by anyone for a very long time. Because the man who spoke these ten words had been missing for a long time.

That was the Hallmaster of Bai Xiao Hall of the martial world, Ji Ruofeng, the one who evaluated the pinnacle realms of martial arts and the Baihu Guardian of the West, one of the Four Guardians of Heavenly Revelations. During the case of Langya Prince’s rebellion, he stood on the execution ground and stopped the sword of a sword immortal from Li Hanyi. But that was the last time he showed himself. After that, he disappeared from the martial world, and even Bai Xiao Hall which had existed for over a hundred years, gradually disappeared or went into hiding.

But everyone knew that the Bai Xiao Hall disciples who were scattered all over the martial world did not disperse. They continued to observe the martial world silently, recording everything that took place and sending them back to the legendary Bai Xiao Hall. They were waiting for that legendary expert of martial arts to once again appear, because he was the only one qualified to decide the rankings of the martial world.

Each revision of the martial ranking list was sometimes once every three years and sometimes once a year. It wasn’t based on Ji Ruofeng\'s mood, but due to the first five words - the martial world’s disputes resolved. Every time there was a dispute, someone would die, some would rise and others would withdraw. So, once the disputes were resolved, the martial world would have changed.

"Ji Ruofeng is back?" Sikong Changfeng looked at the Bai Xiao Hall disciple.

But the disciple wearing a hat did not answer. He merely tossed the scroll in his hand over. "Spear Immortal, please read the list."

Sikong Changfeng twitched his spear, and caught the scroll, balancing it on the tip of the spear. He flicked it towards the right and the entire scroll rolled open.

The first list on the Golden Lists was called the Hundred Weapons List.

This included all weapons, but also referred to the people who used weapons.

Of a hundred weapons, the spear was king. So, the first name was Sikong Changfeng.

Spear Immortal, Sikong Changfeng. Spear: Dark Moon Spear.

Sword Immortals, Solitary Sword Immortal Luo Qingyang, sword: Nine Songs. Confucian Sword Immortal Xie Xuan, sword: Book of Knowledge. Wrath Sword Immortal Yan Zhantian, sword: Army Destroyer. Snow Moon Sword Immortal Li Hanyi, sword: Armoured Glacier, Peach Blossom.

Sikong Changfeng exhaled a small sigh. The Doaist Sword Immortal had fallen and the five great sword immortals became four great sword immortals, which was really regrettable. Seeing this, Wuxin frowned slightly. Lei Hong, who was declared by Xie Xuan to have entered the realm of a sword immortal, was not on the Hundred Weapons List. It must be because the Murderous Dread sword was destroyed and he had yet to find a new sword.

Sabre Immortals, Tyrant Sabre Tan Taipo, sabre: Qilin Fang. Ghost Sabre Zhaiyue Jun, sabre: Yin Yang. Gentle Sabre Su Yuluo, sabre: Late Fall.

Nanjue still had three sabre immortals, but those familiar with the Golden Lists would recognise that the Gentle Sabre was still the Gentle Sabre, but the name had changed from Ye Bixia to Su Yuluo. Looked like the legendary female swordsman was dead, and this Su Yuluo must be her rumoured final disciple.

Sikong Changfeng\'s heart was moved. The final disciple was accepted by Ye Bixia just eight years ago. He should be just over twenty years old now. Yet, he was already included in this Hundred Weapons List?

The next few names on the Hundred Weapons List were not as famous as those above, nor were there any more who could be crowned with the title of immortal. Until the last name.

Wine Immortal, Baili Dongjun. Weapon: fists, as well as everything.

If he’d used a sword, he would be a sword immortal. If he pulled out his sabre, he’d become a sabre immortal. But, he loved to use his fists, so when he was filed into the Hundred Weapons List, he preferred to use his title, Wine Immortal.

"Wine can strengthen my courage and boost my morale. Why can’t it be regarded as a weapon?" Baili Dongjun asked Ji Ruofeng that year.

Ji Ruofeng seemed to have remembered this sentence very seriously.

The second list on the Golden Lists was called the Fine Jade List. Only the younger disciples of the various clans and sects could enter this list. There were only eight places, all very precious, and once the disciple was past his 25th birthday, then they would have no chance to enter the list again. Hence, it was a list that every young hero desired to be on at least once in their life. Back then, Lei Hong, Lei Yunhe, Li Hanyi, Sikong Changfeng, and Baili Dongjun were all ranked on the Fine Jade List before.

Quite a number of Snow Moon City disciples had already heard the news and rushed over. They stood behind Sikong Changfeng, trying to see if their own names were written on the list.

As if he’d read the minds of these young disciples, the Bai Xiao Hall disciple who had arrived with the list started to announce the Fine Jade List.

"Ranked eighth on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Snow Moon City, Luo Mingxuan."

Unexpectedly, the first name was a disciple of Snow Moon City. Luo Mingxuan, who had just returned to the city, was helping Yin Luoxia take care of Li Hanyi. But when he heard his name, he exclaimed excitedly, “Shifu, it’s me, it’s me! I’m on the Fine Jade List."

Yin Luoxia smiled and shook her head. "Right at the bottom. What’s there to be so happy about."

"Ranked seventh on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Snow Moon City, Sikong Qianluo."

Sikong Changfeng\'s expression remained indifferent, but the disciples behind him started murmuring amongst themselves, "Qianluo-shijie is really amazing."

"Ranked sixth on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Qingcheng Mountain, Li Fansong."

Wuxin smiled slightly, thinking of the young man who was somewhat similar to the Confucian Sword Immortal. Now that he had gained another fated encounter with a sword immortal, his swordsmanship would only become even more exquisite in the future.

"Ranked fifth on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Snow Moon City, Lei Clan Fort, and Sword Heart Tomb, Lei Wujie."

"What a long name." Wuxin curled his lips.

"Even Lei-shidi is on the Fine Jade List? And ranked higher than Qianluo-shijie. That’s impressive." A disciple who was eating his steamed bun exclaimed happily.

"What about da-shixiong? Da-shixiong must be ahead of the two of them. Could he be ranked first?"

"Ranked fourth on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Tang Clan, Tang Ze."

Even Sikong Changfeng was stunned at this moment. Wuxin also raised his eyebrows, as if he had recalled something.

But all the Snow Moon City disciples were very puzzled. "Who’s Tang Ze? Since when did the Tang Clan have this character? Never heard of him."

"Ranked third on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Snow Moon City, Tang Lian."

"It\'s da-shixiong! Da-shixiong has been named! But, why is he only ranked third?" The disciples were in an uproar.

However, Sikong Changfeng heard more than that. Lei Wujie\'s name listed all three of his sects, but Tang Lian was named only with the three words, Snow Moon City. Bai Xiao Hall really knew a lot about everything.

"Ranked first on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Unrivaled City, Wushuang."

Ranked first on the Fine Jade List? Unrivaled City?

"How is that possible!" Someone exclaimed.

"But didn\'t he just call out the third rank? Why is it suddenly ranked first? Is there a mistake in the list?" Someone else was puzzled.

Wuxin remembered the youth who held the sword casket and nodded slightly. He was indeed qualified to be ranked ahead of Tang Lian.

But the Bai Xiao Hall disciple paused. Then, he continued, "Ranked first on the Fine Jade List, disciple of Outerheaven, Ye Anshi."

Everyone was in an uproar again. So, the reason why there was nobody ranked second was because two of them were ranked first at the same time. This was the first time two people were ranked equally on the Fine Jade List. Furthermore…

"Who the hell is that?" One of the disciples said out loud what everyone else was thinking.

"Yeah, who the hell is that!" Someone shouted in response.

Wuxin sighed with exasperation. He said silently in his heart, that the hell is me, ah.

That was the end of the Fine Jade List. There were a total of eight places and Snow Moon City occupied four of them. No wonder they were worthy of being called the number one city in the martial world. The only smear on this perfection was there were two names ranked above Snow Moon City. Although there was only one name from Unrivaled City, sometimes, being number one was more important than having many names.

Just when everyone was still mumurming to one another, the Bai Xiao Hall disciple suddenly spoke again, "The Ultimate Experts List."

"Ultimate Experts List!"

Sikong Changfeng put away the scroll. "Is Ji Ruofeng crazy?"

The Ultimate Experts List was the third list on the Golden Lists, and also the last. But, Ji Ruofeng had sealed the list over ten years ago!
