Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 134: Striking the Spirit List!

"You only ever think about the benefits." Chen Yao shook her head with a smile. "When other people get promoted to a Second-class Disciple, they’re thrilled for a long time. Why is it that with you, it’s all about what you can gain?"

Long Chen smiled without saying a word.

To him, his status within the Martial Ancestor was unimportant. What mattered was increasing his strength and being able to challenge Su Miaoyu to a life-and-death battle as soon as possible, giving her no room to refuse.

"There are two ranking lists in the Martial Ancestor!" Chen Yao explained to Long Chen. "One is the Martial Roll for First-class Disciples, and the other is the Spirit List for Second-class Disciples."

"The Spirit List?" Long Chen murmured. He had learned a little about the Martial Roll from Qiu Ming before, but this was the first time he had ever heard of the Spirit List.

"Yes," Chen Yao nodded. "After becoming a Second-class Disciple, you gain the qualification to challenge the Spirit List. When you successfully climb the Spirit List, you will receive the rewards you deserve.

"For example, if you rank one-hundredth on the Spirit List for the first time, you will receive ten thousand Superior Spirit Stones and some Miraculous Elixirs and Medicines.

"Afterward, for each rank you climb on the Spirit List, the corresponding rewards will increase.

"Those ranked within the top sixty also have an additional challenge mode.

"For instance, if you successfully challenge all the experts ranked from sixtieth to fiftieth on the list at the same time, you can trigger a tenfold reward mechanism!

"Furthermore, the top ten experts on the Spirit List receive an extra one hundred thousand Human Martial Beads every month!

"In short, the higher your rank on the Spirit List, the greater the rewards you will naturally obtain! As for the specifics of these rewards, you’ll need to find out for yourself. It’s no use for me to say too much."

"I see." Long Chen nodded, now having a general understanding of the reward system for the Spirit List. He then asked, "So the top ten on the Spirit List must all have the strength of the War Maniac Nine Heavens, right?"

"Indeed," Chen Yao nodded. "However, while some may only be at the War Maniac Nine Heavens realm, their combat power can rival that of an expert at the War Sect Realm First Level. Many times, a higher realm doesn’t necessarily mean greater strength."

Long Chen strongly agreed with this statement. A realm may have a limit, but combat power does not.

Seeing Long Chen’s thoughtful expression, Chen Yao encouraged him, "You don’t need to be too hasty. With your aptitude, you have a good chance of breaking into the top ten of the Spirit List. I believe in you; it will just take some time."

What she didn’t know was that the Long Chen standing before her, despite only being at the War Maniac Triple Layer realm, already possessed the combat power to fight a Half-step War King.

"Thank you for your trust, Steward Chen." Long Chen gave a slight smile. "Then I won’t disturb you any longer."

"If you have any questions, just come find me," Chen Yao said before leaving.

It seems I’ll need to focus on my cultivation for a while.

Having made up his mind, Long Chen went straight back to his west wing room and began cultivating the Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula. His Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula had been stalled at the Third Layer for a long time. He had to reach the Fourth Layer as soon as possible.

「Two days passed.」

Long Chen exhaled a long breath, slowly resting his palms on his knees.

The Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula has finally reached the Fourth Layer!

Xia Duoduo congratulated him, "Congratulations, young master, your strength has advanced another level."

Next, I need to go to the Martial Ancestor’s training rooms. I have to absorb Superior Spirit Stones and condense my Dragon Blood to increase my strength as quickly as possible.

Having decided on his plan, Long Chen set off for the Martial Ancestor. Although he had to be sparing in his use of the Secret Technique of Gods and Demons, he still needed to have it ready, just in case.

Arriving at the training rooms, Long Chen saw Elder Huang.

Upon seeing Long Chen, Elder Huang smiled. "It’s been several days. I was wondering when you’d show up. Go on in. A training room is ready for you."

Long Chen took the Human Martial Beads from his Storage Ring. "Elder Huang, here..."

Before Long Chen could finish, Elder Huang waved his hand dismissively. "I told you last time, you can come use the training rooms whenever you wish. Someone will deliver Superior Spirit Stones to your room shortly."

With that, Elder Huang walked away, not even mentioning the matter of exchanging Human Martial Beads.

"Thank you, Elder Huang," Long Chen said, offering a grateful salute.

Upon entering the Stone Chamber, Long Chen was stunned to see numerous Superior Spirit Stones already arranged on the table. He hadn’t expected such efficiency.

Since Elder Huang has been so considerate, I can’t disappoint him.

With that, Long Chen sat cross-legged and began his devoted cultivation using the Superior Spirit Stones.

「Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.」

Long Chen slowly opened his eyes, and the Battle qi within him erupted. A terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire Stone Chamber.

How exhilarating!

Long Chen felt completely refreshed. After seven days of devoted cultivation, he had advanced from the War Maniac Realm Triple Layer to the War Maniac Realm Fifth Layer! He had also successfully condensed his Dragon Blood.

Now, relying solely on his Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula, he possessed the strength to fight an expert at the War Maniac Realm Ninth Layer.

If I were to use the Coiling Dragon Seal or the Chan Meditation Spirit Map, couldn’t I instantly defeat the number one on the Spirit List? It’s time to challenge the Spirit List!
