Just as his anger peaked, a golden beam of light, thicker and more imposing than Dugu Yan's previous one, descended from the sky and instantly enveloped him!
"Boom!"
Yu Yuanzhen only felt an irresistible surge of majestic energy flow into his body. His level ninety-five spirit power bottleneck was instantly shattered by this force!
Level ninety-six!
His spirit power directly increased by one level!
At the same time, the nine spirit rings beneath his feet shone brightly, and the age limit of every single spirit ring was forcibly raised by six hundred years!
What shocked him even more was that he could clearly feel the Lightning Power contained within his Spirit becoming purer and more violent!
Basic Lightning Attribute increased by ten percent!
This brief moment of improvement instantly multiplied his strength several times over!
One must know that he had been stuck at level ninety-five for a long time, but now, thanks to a heavenly dao reward, he easily broke through!
His first two spirit rings also turned purple, making them even more powerful!
Furthermore, with the ten percent increase in Basic Lightning Attribute combined with his Amplification Spirit Ability, the resulting power boost was far more than a simple ten percent!
"Hahahahaha—"
"Nineteenth place is great! The cultivation level that has troubled me for so many years has finally broken through!"
After his initial joy, Yu Yuanzhen felt a touch of worry and sighed, "Alas, the reward for nineteenth place already excites me this much, so how heaven-defying must the reward for first place be?"
"It's a pity my Spirit seems unworthy in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao."
Yu Luomian looked at Yu Yuanzhen with envy, then said, "Big Brother, your strength has indeed increased, so what should we do next?"
Yu Yuanzhen said, "Have the family prepare. Take advantage of this time to recall all the family disciples who are currently outside."
"After this Ranking List is fully announced, this Continent... will probably not be peaceful."
The entire Continent completely erupted the moment they saw the nineteenth place ranking!
"What?! The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon only ranks nineteenth?!"
"Am I seeing things? That is one of the Upper Three Sects, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, hailed as the Number One Beast Spirit in the World!"
"The Jade Phosphor Dragon Emperor ranks twentieth, and the Continent's number one Beast Spirit ranks nineteenth? Is this Ranking List wrong?"
"If even the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon can only rank nineteenth, then how terrifying must the eighteen entities ranked above it be?!"
Canglan Academy.
Dugu Yan said, "Teacher, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is only one spot above mine, and this evaluation seems to look down on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon somewhat, doesn't it?"
Lin Yuan chuckled, "That's quite normal. While the Blue Lightning Tyrant DragonSpirit is called the Continent's number one Beast Spirit, that's only what is known publicly."
"After all, there are so many Spirit Masters on the Continent. It's not surprising that some Old freaks dislike conflict and hide themselves away."
"Moreover, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon only possesses a trace of True Dragon Bloodline. It's just that your current Spirit hasn't fully evolved yet; otherwise, the quality of your Jade Phosphor Dragon Emperor would surpass the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon."
"Just think, if the Blue Lightning Tyrant DragonSpirit was truly that strong, why, after so many years, is Yu Yuanzhen the only Old Dragon in the Lan Dian Family?"
"This only shows that he was lucky to have high Innate Spirit Power, which allowed him to reach his current level ninety-five spirit power. Coupled with the Dragon Transformation Secret Technique passed down by their ancestors, he was able to become one of the Upper Three Sects."
"But even so, the Lan Dian Family is only at the bottom of the Upper Three Sects. If they were to truly fight the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which ranks second, that Old Dragon might not be a match for Chen Xin."
Seeing her Teacher praise their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Rongrong giggled, proactively went behind Lin Yuan, and began gently massaging his shoulders with her small hands.
"Teacher, based on what you said, do my two Grandfathers also have a chance to make the list?"
Lin Yuan enjoyed Rongrong's massage and smiled, "There should be a chance. If they can rely on their own efforts to raise their cultivation to level ninety-five or ninety-six, how could their Spirits be poor?"
"Even if your Spirit were Blue Silver Grass, if you cultivated it to level ninety-five, although it would still be called Blue Silver Grass, its quality would already be different from ordinary Blue Silver Grass."
"Internally, earth-shaking changes would have already taken place. Only ordinary people would still mock or be surprised why mere Blue Silver Grass could achieve the Titled rank."
Xiao Wu blinked curiously, "Teacher, so can Blue Silver Grass really be cultivated to the Titled rank?"
"No," Lin Yuan replied.
The girls were speechless.
"Then why did you use that example?"
Xiao Wu pouted, venting her dissatisfaction.
The girls felt as if Lin Yuan had played a trick on them.
"Hahaha," Lin Yuan chuckled softly, "That was just a more extreme example. Replacing the Blue Silver Grass with an ordinary wooden sword or iron sword would yield the same result."
"I just wanted to tell you not to judge a Spirit by its appearance and not to be deceived by preconceived notions."
"A Spirit that can be cultivated to the Titled rank cannot be poor. Even if the Innate Spirit Power is low, the Spirit would have evolved many times during the growth process."
"Generally speaking, the stronger the cultivation, the stronger the actual power. In the Spirit Master's world, cultivation is everything, understand?"
The girls replied, "We understand."
Lin Yuan did not tell them that there really was one person who cultivated Blue Silver Grass to the Titled rank.
That person was Tang San.
However, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was not ordinary Blue Silver Grass; it possessed Royal Bloodline.
The example he just used was the most common Blue Silver Grass.
In his view, this World did not have the unstable foundation issues found in other Xuanhuan Worlds.
So, to put it simply and crudely, assuming the spirit ring configuration and other factors are roughly the same, the higher the cultivation level, the stronger the power must be.
After all, the concept of a Soul Core does not exist in this era, and even the Bloodline Suppression from the era of The Legend of the Dragon King was rare.
As for Lan Xuanyu, let's not mention him; he doesn't even count as a person anymore.
The entire Douluo Continent was plunged into immense uproar and shock due to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's humiliating nineteenth-place ranking.
The worldviews of countless Spirit Masters were completely overturned on this day.
A powerful existence that has been passed down for thousands of years and is hailed as the "Number One Beast Spirit in the World," could only rank second to last?
Then what kind of God-like Spirits must be ranked ahead of it?
Everyone's hearts were filled with this question.
However, the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking List did not make them wait for long.
Just as Yu Yuanzhen finished receiving his reward and stood rooted to the spot with a still-pale face, the golden heavenly screen in the sky began to circulate light once more!
Everyone's hearts leaped into their throats once again!
Who will be eighteenth place?!
