Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System - Chapter 350: Temporarily Rank 1st!

After defeating Yi Yang, Li Yun began absorbing the Dragon Qi within his opponent’s body. The golden dragon mark on his forehead radiated a brilliant light, while inside his Sea of Consciousness, the golden Heavenly Dragon expanded rapidly once more.

Its size surged to eight point six meters.

With this growth, Li Yun temporarily surpassed even the three young giants, rising to the top position in terms of accumulated Dragon Qi.

The fifth challenge match concluded there.

Soon after, the sixth challenge match began. The participant defending his position this time was Song Batian, the genius ranked sixth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

Ten minutes later, the battle came to an end.

Song Batian successfully defended his place, proving why he remained among the top experts of the younger generation. After claiming victory, the golden Heavenly Dragon within his Sea of Consciousness expanded to eight point three meters.

The challenge matches continued one after another.

The seventh match concluded, followed by the eighth, the ninth, and finally the tenth. Throughout these battles, some challengers succeeded in overthrowing the seeded participants, while others failed and were eliminated. By the end of the challenge tournament, the Hidden Dragon Ranking had undergone a significant reshuffling.

The positions of the three young giants remained unchanged.

Su Fengyan still stood firmly at the top, followed by Li Hao and Huang Chen.

Among the seven great experts, Teng Jian retained his position as the strongest. Ranked fifth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, he possessed a golden Heavenly Dragon measuring eight point two meters.

Yi Yang, who had originally been second among the seven great experts, lost his position after his defeat at Li Yun’s hands. Li Yun replaced him, holding a golden Heavenly Dragon of eight point six meters.

Song Batian successfully maintained his sixth-place ranking and possessed a golden Heavenly Dragon measuring eight point one meters.

Xu Zhu, who had been ranked seventh, was defeated by a young genius named Jiang Feiyun. After taking his place, Jiang Feiyun’s golden Heavenly Dragon reached seven point nine meters in length.

Bai Haoyuan, originally ranked eighth, also fell during the challenge matches. His position was seized by a young expert named Tian Dong, whose golden Heavenly Dragon measured seven point eight meters.

Luo Jinzhong retained his ninth-place position, maintaining a golden Heavenly Dragon of seven point eight meters.

Sha Zangtian, who stood tenth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking and ranked last among the seven great experts, also successfully defended his position. His golden Heavenly Dragon measured seven point seven meters.

With that, the challenge tournament officially came to an end.

The ranking system of the Hidden Dragon Tournament was ultimately determined by the size of the golden Heavenly Dragon each participant possessed. The larger the dragon within one’s Sea of Consciousness, the higher their standing on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

Li Yun, possessing a golden Heavenly Dragon measuring eight point six meters, temporarily claimed the first position.

Su Fengyan followed closely behind with a golden Heavenly Dragon of eight point five meters, placing him second.

Li Hao ranked third with a golden Heavenly Dragon measuring eight point four meters. Huang Chen also possessed a dragon of the same size, yet because his standing among the three young titans was considered slightly lower than Li Hao’s, he could only be placed fourth.

Teng Jian, whose golden Heavenly Dragon measured eight point two meters, occupied the fifth position.

Song Batian ranked sixth.

Jiang Feiyun stood seventh.

Tian Dong took eighth place.

Luo Jinzhong ranked ninth.

Sha Zangtian held the final position at tenth.

However, these rankings were only temporary.

The challenge tournament had ended, but the atmosphere throughout the Hidden Dragon Battlefield did not calm in the slightest. On the contrary, the excitement grew even more intense, because everyone knew that the true climax of the tournament was about to begin.

One final battle remained.

And this battle would be the most spectacular confrontation of the entire Hidden Dragon Tournament.

The ten individuals standing at this stage represented the strongest young experts of the Southern Martial Domain. Every one of them stood at the peak of the younger generation, and a clash between such figures was naturally enough to ignite the emotions of everyone present.

This final stage was known as the Battle of the Top Ten.

At that moment, Long Yutian’s powerful voice echoed across the battlefield.

“The Battle of the Top Ten officially begins.”

His words reverberated through every corner of the arena.

“This stage will proceed as a free challenge tournament. Any participant within the top ten may freely challenge those ranked above or below them in order to seize their Dragon Qi. However, defeat even once, and you will be eliminated. The victor may continue fighting until the final champion is decided.”

Although it was described as a free challenge format, everyone understood one thing clearly.

The five strongest experts, Su Fengyan, Li Hao, Huang Chen, Teng Jian, and Li Yun, would never casually challenge those ranked beneath them.

Simply reaching their current positions already proved that they stood at the summit of the younger generation. Challenging weaker opponents would only diminish their own prestige, and none of them would willingly lower themselves in such a way.

Just then, a voice rang out across the arena.

“Su Fengyan, let me witness the true strength of the leader among the three young giants.”

The declaration instantly drew countless shocked gazes.

The first person to challenge Su Fengyan was not Li Hao or Huang Chen, but Jiang Feiyun, who currently ranked seventh.

This unexpected development stirred the crowd immediately.

Jiang Feiyun was a newly risen genius, one of those rare individuals who emerged suddenly and rapidly climbed into prominence. Such talents were often proud and fearless, believing themselves invincible among their peers. Even when facing someone as legendary as Su Fengyan, Jiang Feiyun showed no hesitation.

In his mind, there were only two paths for a genius.

Either remain unknown forever, or rise to fame in a single battle.

And there was no better way to accomplish that than by challenging Su Fengyan, the acknowledged head of the three young titans.
