As he reverted to his Slime form.
He, who had been ranked first on the "Advancement" and "Potential" Golden Rankings, had vanished.
The "Six-Winged Angel," who was in second place, rose to first.
All the other rankings also moved up one spot, leaving only 199 spots on both lists.
His actions caused countless people who were gazing at the Golden Rankings to exclaim in surprise.
"Gone! The Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger, first on the Potential Golden Ranking, is gone! Now the Six-Winged Angel is first."
"Not only is the first on the Potential Golden Ranking gone, but the first on the Advancement Golden Ranking is also gone. So, the two first places were indeed the same Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger?"
"Just won the top spot on both rankings, and then vanished from them. Wouldn't be surprised if someone took him out, right?"
Looking at his own name disappear from the "Advancement" and "Potential" Golden Rankings, Ling Yun was immediately delighted.
"Heh? This is actually possible? How did I only just discover this?"
As long as he reverted to his original form, his name would disappear from the Golden Rankings.
Once he transformed back into the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger, his name would reappear.
This Golden Ranking is way too user-friendly, isn't it? Gotta give the Golden Ranking a thumbs up.
A playful smile appeared on his face, and his water-like body twisted strangely, re-simulating the form of the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger.
In an instant, Qian Renxue, who had already become the top of both the "Advancement" and "Potential" rankings, fell back to second place.
All the rankings below her also dropped by one place.
The five large characters "Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger" reappeared at the top of both rankings.
After five seconds, "Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger" disappeared, and everyone's rankings rose by one place again.
Next, the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger repeatedly disappeared and reappeared from the Golden Ranking...
Countless people watching the Golden Ranking felt like countless alpacas were running through their hearts.
Especially those lucky ones who had made it onto the Golden Ranking felt like they were being toyed with.
In the Heaven Dou Empire, inside the Crown Prince's residence.
"Xue Qinghe" ground her teeth, the sound loud in the silence.
That Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger again!
What grudge did she have with that thing? What past grievances?
It had stolen her first place in two consecutive rankings, snatching away rewards that should have been hers.
Anyone in her position would be furious!
Even if "Xue Qinghe" had the best temper, this absolutely crossed the line.
Well-educated, "Xue Qinghe" kept telling herself not to get angry; she wasn't a sore loser.
Just as her mood began to calm down, she noticed that the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger, which had held first place on both rankings, had disappeared.
And she had surprisingly moved up a position, becoming the new number one on both rankings. This left "Xue Qinghe" puzzled.
Could it be that the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger had just secured first place on both rankings and then… perished?
If that's truly the case, it's a real shame.
While she was feeling sorry for Ling Yun, she noticed her ranking had slipped to second again, with the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger still at the top.
That wouldn't have been so bad, but then the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger disappeared from the top spot every five seconds, only to reappear, then disappear again, and reappear...
She, who was in second place, was thus stuck oscillating between first and second, going up and down.
Qian Renxue realized something, and the veins on her face bulged, her eyes blazing with fury.
Provocation, blatant provocation.
The implication of the ranking was that she could only be in first place if the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger disappeared.
If it didn't disappear, Qian Renxue would forever be the perennial second, with first place merely being a handout to her.
"Xue Qinghe" clenched her fists tightly, letting out a sharp cry.
"Come! Someone, come quickly!"
Following her call, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared in the room, kneeling on one knee with a humble demeanor.
"Young master, what are your orders?"
"Xue Qinghe" commanded in a cold tone.
"Go back to the Elder Hall and have my grandfather send people to find that Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger.
Remember, I want it alive. I want it to forever submit at my feet and become my mount! Anyone who dares to obstruct, kill them without mercy!"
"Yes, sir!" The middle-aged man instantly vanished from the spot, leaving only the grinding teeth of "Xue Qinghe".
Her anger was difficult to quell, her face overcast.
Inside the Papal Palace.
Bibi Dong couldn't remain seated either.
Initially, she thought Ling Yun was just lucky, obtaining a top-grade immortal herb that allowed him to increase his cultivation by thirty thousand years in a single year.
But she didn't expect his potential to be even higher than her daughter's.
Bibi Dong even suspected there was something wrong with the ranking.
Otherwise, how could a mere soul beast possibly have higher aptitude than her daughter? Even though she hated Qian Xunji, who had defiled her, and extended that hatred to Qian Renxue,
Qian Renxue was, after all, her daughter. As a mother, how could she not love her precious daughter?
This hateful Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger actually dared to twice steal the rewards that her daughter deserved.
It also repeatedly mocked her daughter. As a mother, she couldn't tolerate it at all.
Moreover, this Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger had obtained 6% God Affinity.
This was something that even she coveted.
If she could capture this Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger and obtain the God Affinity...
"Elder Ju, Elder Gui, pass down my orders! Search the entire continent for this Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger!
Those who capture this Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger alive and deliver it to Spirit Hall will be rewarded with five million Gold Soul Coins!
Those who provide information, as long as the information is verified to be true, will be rewarded with one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins!"
Elder Ju and Elder Gui understood that the Pope was truly enraged this time.
To offer such a generous reward, it seemed she was determined to capture Ling Yun and bring him to justice.
This news quickly spread from the Spirit Hall and, at an astonishing speed, swept across the continent.
Countless soul masters, enticed by the Gold Soul Coins, embarked on the path to hunt down the Three-Tailed Demonic Tiger.
They knew the road ahead might be perilous, but the substantial reward made them fearless.
That was the allure of money; no ordinary person could resist it.
