Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 137, Section 136: Possessing 80% of the Luck

There were no upsets or miracles.

This is a crushing defeat due to superior strength.

The Shan Hai Tian Xia team maintained an absolute advantage from beginning to end. Even when Li Chunfeng was caught off guard and ambushed, they still managed to win the game.

Even if the True Dragon Bloodline was unwilling to admit it, he still had to acknowledge that he was no match for Li Chunfeng.

The outcome was decided, and both sides were teleported back to Xihe Palace.

A deafening cheer suddenly erupted from the crowd.

The internet is filled with praise, with the vast majority of comments coming from netizens from all over the world cheering them on.

Today, the Shan Hai Academy team is the absolute king in the World Tournament, but who would know that in the beginning, this team was just an inconspicuous 18th-tier team from Shan Hai Academy? Back then, people called them the dark horse team.

The audience of Shan Hai Tian Xia witnessed their journey from obscurity to prominence, from dark horse to ultimate success, from champion seed to dominance in the tournament, making them feel more involved.

Hu Yifei and the others were very excited, after all, this battle was very difficult for them, but fortunately they still won.

Li Chunfeng remained calm, simply looking expectantly at the Qingyun Ranking.

From the perspective of the 'mind's eye', the Qingyun Ranking is ablaze with countless rainbows, which rise higher and higher with the cheers of the people.

Because it concerned the incomplete jade tablet, Li Chunfeng paid special attention to the fortune of the celestial body and read many papers and books on the subject in his spare time.

The concept of destiny is mysterious and profound.

Luck, fortune?
The most apt explanation is that the natural world's fortune is composed of two parts: the Five Elements and the Six Qi.

"Yun" refers to the movement or operation of things. The Five Elements (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth) are five phenomena that reflect the influence of the world's cyclical laws on climate. "Qi" refers to the Six Qi. The Six Qi are Jueyin Wind Wood, Shaoyin Sovereign Fire, Shaoyang Ministerial Fire, Taiyin Damp Earth, Yangming Dry Metal, and Taiyang Cold Water. These are the atmospheric morphological factors that contribute to climate change, hence the term "Five Elements and Six Qi."

The human body also experiences the movement of Qi in the five internal organs and the six meridians (three Yin and three Yang). The movement of Qi in nature is interconnected with the movement of Qi in the five internal organs and six meridians of the human body. Therefore, the movement of Qi in nature can influence the physiology and pathology of Qi in the five internal organs and six meridians of the human body.

This is based on the theory of nature and the human body, but it should not be equated with the seven rainbow lights on the Qingyun List.

...There is some connection, isn't there?

Doesn't this indirectly prove that everyone has luck?

The only difference is that not everyone can suppress their own destiny.

So, is the purpose of the Azure Cloud Ranking to absorb the scattered fortune of all people, collect it, concentrate its advantages, and reuse it?
No, it should be about following the natural order; guidance is only a small part.

That's why the authorities spend a lot of effort promoting the Qingyun Ranking Competition every year.

Otherwise, if fortune can be plundered and utilized, wouldn't it be easy for a powerful person to amass a large amount of fortune by raising people to worship him?

With the conclusion of another battle, Kyushu Tianxia finally managed to turn the tide, ultimately finishing third with a record of one win out of three battles.

With a record of two wins in three battles, Sihai Tianxia ranks second.

Lotus World lost all three battles and finished last.

The team competition has officially ended.

A rainbow of light flashed on the Azure Cloud Ranking, and golden lines began to write names one by one. Li Chunfeng watched intently. With each name that fell, his 'mind's eye' clearly saw streaks of seven-colored rainbow light fall on the person's head.

The higher the ranking, the greater the fortune, but this is not absolute.

Gu Yuanshan, the captain of the Lotus World team, was ranked last, but the luck bestowed upon him was several times greater than that of ordinary members of other teams.

Li Chunfeng suddenly recalled what Hualong Daoist had said before the competition began:
"...You must demonstrate your true abilities and let all living beings see the potential of this outstanding young man. As long as you give it your all and show your perseverance, extraordinary will, and brilliant wisdom, you will receive the reward you deserve."

Those words, when compared with the phenomenon of his current good fortune, are perfectly confirmed.

When it was their turn, as Li Chunfeng's name was the last to fall, all the remaining fortune fell upon him.

He alone occupies most of the space.

The Dragon Transformation Taoist watched this scene with a smile, and facing the camera, he clapped and applauded gently with the people around him.

"One person possessing 80% of the fortune is a rare occurrence. Yingzhen, has such a situation ever happened before?"

“Yes, Elder, the young fellow is indeed full of potential. As far as I know, since the Qingyun Ranking Competition concluded, only Bai Mei from a thousand years ago came close to having one person monopolize 80% of the fortune.” A Daoist Lord beside him respectfully answered the old man’s words.

"Bai Mei, I remember he was about to undergo the seventh tribulation. Which academy took this kid?"

"It's Kunlun Academy, and they happen to be your students."

"Hehe, Kunlun is about to produce another talent."

Li Chunfeng was naturally unaware of the discussions among the powerful figures.

He stared intently at the broken jade disc, where a brilliant seven-colored light shone brightly, and the [Derivation Method] flashed continuously.

If we quantify the data on fortune, the fortune gained this time amounts to as many as 8,000 channels, which is eight times that of when Shan Hai Tian Xia won the championship, and dozens of times that of when Shan Hai Bu Zhou won the championship.

Mr. Li was filled with joy, "This trip was definitely worthwhile!"

The [Derivation Method] function is now available again.

We need to think about this carefully.

"Drip drop~"

After the tedious award ceremony ended, Li Chunfeng and others returned to the audience, and his phone immediately received a flood of messages.

He doesn't have many friends; most of his messages are congratulatory from classmates, so he can just reply to everyone.

Individual responses are required.

"Congratulations! Today, Shan Hai Academy is proud of you!"

An ordinary congratulatory text message jolted Li Chunfeng awake, prompting him to reply earnestly. "What's wrong, Lao Li? Who are you rushing to reply to? Lu Yun'er is right there over there." Hao Da'er grinned foolishly, still basking in the joy of winning the championship after stepping off the stage.

"It's the dean."

Hu Yifei didn't react immediately, "The dean is over there too?"

"It's Dean Xu Mochen."

Everyone froze, their silly grins vanishing as they gathered around. "Did Dean Xu send you a message?" "How is Dean Xu's injury?"

"Dean Xu congratulated us, saying the academy is proud of us. I'm asking about the others now."

If you ask Xu Mochen if he regretted it, he might not have regretted it at the time, but he certainly would have regretted it afterward.

After all, he was only one step away from entering the Void Step Realm, but now his path is cut off.

The fact that he was able to send a message to Li Chunfeng at this time shows that he is also slowly getting over his inner conflict.

When Li Chunfeng inquired about his injuries, Xu Mochen did not answer him.

As an elder, I offered them a few words of encouragement: "You have a bright future and will achieve great things, but I still have to say a few discouraging words. If you want to become stronger, you must see yourself clearly. When you are still weak, this is easy to do. But when you become strong in a certain area, you will be blinded by this temporary strength and stagnate. Your journey has just begun, so don't let pride cloud your vision."

"Yes, the student will keep this in mind and will also relay these words to the others. If it weren't for the dean risking his life to save us, we might not be where we are today."

"Don't take it to heart. I've lived long enough. My old bones aren't worth your concern. If you feel guilty because of this, it's even less worth it. Enough said. Keep up the good work. A wider world awaits you in the future."

Li Chunfeng felt a mix of emotions, and suddenly felt a heavy weight on his shoulders.

It's as if you're seeing an old man on his deathbed, finally letting go of his worries and placing his hopes for a new life on a few young people.

I held my finger on the phone for a long time before replying with just four words.

"I will heed your teachings!"

He forwarded a message of encouragement from Xu Mochen to Zhou Siye, Shen Zhibai, Wei Wu, and others who were on the flying boat at the time.

The champion of this final competition will receive a prize of 20 million in opening merit.

You have one chance to upgrade your magic weapon: two Tier 1 magic weapons, two Tier 3 divine weapons, two Human Essence Pills, and three Divine Embryo Pills.

The rewards took into full consideration the composition of their team members, so he didn't need to rack his brains to allocate them.

Li Chunfeng decisively distributed the rewards: magic treasures and divine weapons were evenly divided among the four of them. As for the opportunity to upgrade magic treasures, he still planned to bet on the Tiandu Sword.

"Li Chunfeng, are the magic weapons going to be distributed to us?" Jiang Lele asked in disbelief.

Li Chunfeng said, "As champion members, it would be laughable if you went out without a magic weapon. With the Divine Embryo Pill as a foundation, you have a chance to reach the Divine Embryo Realm in the future, so you don't need to underestimate yourselves. You may be inferior to geniuses, but compared to ordinary people, you are actually very strong."

"Is that so?" The two women exchanged a glance, somewhat excited.

Chen Lingsu asked, "Then which magic weapon should we choose?"

"My first magic weapon was obtained in the Ghost Realm, and I chose the magic weapon sword embryo. Since it concerns your own cultivation, there is no need to blindly follow others. You should think about it carefully."

"Uh-huh."

The individual competition for the Qingyun Ranking continues in full swing.

Aside from occasionally paying attention to Lu Yun'er's matches, Li Chunfeng had already devoted himself to his spiritual practice.

First is the [Derivation Method]. Although deducing cultivation techniques is important, he felt there was a spatial spell that he had to deduce.

[Shattering Space Blade: Can cut through space, and can also be used for attack.]

When facing top geniuses, Soul Fireballs are not enough to deliver the final blow. Spatial attack techniques can be used to make up for the lack of offensive capabilities.

If there is still extra luck, then consider other options.

Having made up his mind, he decisively activated the [Derivation Technique].

The Tomb Spirit Shadow Soul Crystal purchased from the demons was also synthesized, and finally the 'Ghostly Shadow Escape' was successfully upgraded to Earth Rank 10.

[Spell: Ghostly Shadow Escape (Earth Rank 5 → Earth Rank 10)]

While there was no significant improvement in escape speed, the skill level became higher, and the stealth capabilities were enhanced.

Three days later.

The individual competition of the Qingyun Ranking has concluded, and Wen Xiangzhu, with his exceptional swordsmanship, won first place in the duel.

The True Dragon Bloodline only managed to secure third place.

The second place was surprisingly Gu Yuanshan. His achievement was due to his strong overall strength and deep understanding of the true essence of Buddhist techniques.

The fourth is Xiao Haifei, whose natal demonic pet is a Tai Chi Flying Bear with one black and one white wing. When transformed, it is surrounded by a golden magic circle. He wears black armor and wields a long, slender iron-slaying sword. Overall, this character gives off a noble, mysterious, and powerful aura.

Lei Runsheng came in fifth place, and Yang Qian came in sixth.

Huang Tianhe ultimately finished fifteenth on the overall list.

Lu Yun'er only ranked 18th, which is average. She was very dissatisfied with this ranking, but it did not stop her from becoming popular among fans and being regarded as a new generation goddess.

Many of these top experts on the Azure Cloud Ranking wouldn't even appear in Yuan City. Clearly, there are hidden talents within the Earthly Realm. These individuals may not lack resources, which is why they wouldn't pursue godhood and risk getting themselves into trouble.

After all, the Abyss has been around for so many years, and Abyss City is no secret to certain forces. Their lack of pursuit of godlike status might have other considerations.

It's one thing to be ignorant in the past, that was due to information barriers.

If Li Chunfeng continues to rely on his status as the number one on the Yuancheng God Tribulation Ranking, he will inevitably run into trouble sooner or later.

Just as Vice Dean Xu Mochen said, if a person wants to become stronger, he must see himself clearly and not be blinded by short-term victories.
