Chapter 273 A Bad Premonition
The fortune values of Ao Yin and Diao Chan are like two towering mountains standing in the sky.
The numbers 54321 and 45923 sent shivers down the spines of all living beings on the Douluo Continent, and the discussions never ceased.
Even the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Continent were numb, only repeatedly murmuring the four words "Beidou Academy," their eyes filled with despair.
...
Inside the Papal Palace.
Bibidon leaned against the papal throne, her fingertips lightly tapping the armrests, producing a monotonous sound.
She sighed softly, her eyes no longer filled with the usual ferocity, only a trace of indescribable numbness.
"In the end, it still turned out the same."
She muttered to herself, the images of Beidou Academy students making the list flashing through her mind.
Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, Cai Wenji, Diao Chan, Ao Yin...
One after another, their talent, strength, and luck were unparalleled on the continent.
"It seems that Beidou Academy will occupy half of the top nine spots on this fortune ranking."
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan stood to one side with his head bowed, his soul power trembling slightly, his face full of solemnity.
"Your Holiness, the disciples of the Beidou Academy are not only incredibly talented, but their luck is also so extraordinary. Ao Yin's luck value of over 54,000 is far greater than that of the Grand Elder and Poseidon."
Ghost Douluo Gui Mei remained silent, his eyes beneath his black robe filled with unease.
He had seen countless geniuses, but he had never seen such a cluster of extraordinary beings appearing together.
The sheer amount of good fortune gathered here makes the Spirit Hall's centuries of accumulation pale in comparison.
Bibi Dong raised her eyes, her gaze piercing through the palace and looking up at the golden sky, her eyes filled with only calm scrutiny.
"It doesn't matter. I want to see how much luck I have, with my position as Pope of the Spirit Hall, the opportunity of being a Rakshasa God, and the power to control half of the Douluo Continent."
"Where will we rank? Will we be able to break into the top five?"
Her voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.
The despair in Kiku-Ghost Douluo's heart lessened slightly!
Yes, His Holiness the Pope is one of the most powerful beings in the Douluo Continent, and his luck value is definitely not low.
The ranking won't be low either!
...
A desolate place.
The Abyss Saint Lord's avatar stared intently at the words "Beidou Academy" on the sky, his eyes swirling with curiosity and extreme greed.
"Strange, so strange."
He growled in a low voice, and the power of the abyss fluctuated violently due to his emotions.
"For an academy to produce so many individuals with extraordinary luck in succession, it must be hiding an unimaginable secret."
"It might be a supreme treasure from another dimension, a heaven-defying inheritance, or even a passage connecting to other dimensions!"
The Abyss Saint King was deep in thought.
If he can find this secret, his strength will surely increase by leaps and bounds.
Breaking through to the God-King realm is just around the corner!
The Abyss Saint King felt an unbearable heat rising in his heart, but the next second, an inexplicable chill suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
This instantly curbed his greed.
Something's not right.
His brows furrowed, and a hint of apprehension flashed in his crimson eyes.
"I felt a sense of unease, as if the upcoming Fortune Ranking would feature an entity that I would be extremely wary of."
This premonition came without any reason, yet it was incredibly strong, making him dare not wait any longer.
Upon this thought, the black mist surrounding the Abyss Saint King's avatar surged.
The next second, it transformed into a streak of light, tearing through the void and speeding towards the direction of Beidou Academy.
"In that case, let's investigate the background of Beidou Academy first! If there is no top expert behind it, then we'll take direct action and devour these geniuses on the Fortune Ranking."
"This will save us a lot of trouble and also prevent that unknown and feared entity from emerging!"
A streak of light pierced the sky and disappeared into the clouds!
Unbeknownst to anyone, this malevolent force from the abyss was quietly approaching Beidou Academy.
...
Just as the various factions on Douluo Continent were harboring their own thoughts, the Abyss Saint Lord was secretly investigating, and the Sun and Moon Continent was filled with despair.
"Boom boom boom!"
The golden sky above shone brightly once more, even more so than when Ao Yin first appeared on the list.
A beam of golden light shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire new continent as if it were daytime.
"Here it comes! The ninth place on the Fortune Ranking has finally appeared!"
"I wonder which faction's Soul Master will be next?"
"Hopefully it's not Beidou Academy, give us a chance!"
"..."
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, all curious about who would be on the next luck ranking.
The golden characters above the sky rapidly solidified, their power piercing the heavens and resounding in all directions.
[Ninth on the Fortune Ranking: Zhuang Zhou]
[Affiliation: Beidou Academy]
[Luck Value: 60032]
[Aura Assessment: Possessing the Kun Martial Soul of the Northern Sea, originating from a supreme inheritance from another dimension, wielding the ability to traverse the void, with speed unmatched on the continent, inheriting exclusive fortune from another dimension, blessed with profound good fortune, and concealing divine will, his Martial Soul can draw upon the power of dreams, disrupting the laws of heaven and earth, and his void power has reached a state of perfection, making him the most outstanding speed-type powerhouse on the Douluo Continent!]
[Ranking Rewards: Permanently increase Void Travel Speed by 10%, obtain one 100,000-year Soul Bone, increase the age of all Soul Rings by 8,000 years, comprehend the Kunpeng Profound Truth by 10%, and permanently increase Luck Value by 6,000 points!]
The sudden appearance of a luck value of 60032 caused the discussions in the Douluo Continent to quiet down a bit.
It wasn't that I wasn't shocked, but rather that the overwhelming dominance of Beidou Academy had worn away any initial surprise.
All that remained were helpless sighs.
"As expected of Zhuang Zhou! A top figure on the Martial Soul Ranking and the Power Ranking, another prodigy of Beidou Academy!"
"Sixty thousand luck points! He also possesses the ability to travel through the void and has comprehended the profound mysteries of the Kunpeng. Such strength is probably beyond the reach of even god-level experts!"
"I should have thought of that. The strong individuals from Beidou Academy who have appeared on other lists will eventually appear on the Fortune Ranking."
"The truly top-tier experts have yet to emerge, so it seems the Beidou Academy is about to completely dominate this Fortune Ranking!"
"..."
Although everyone had expected it, they were still shocked by the continuous stream of heaven-defying soul masters.
Beidou Academy is like a bottomless pit; no one will ever know how many exceptionally talented individuals or those with extraordinary destiny are hidden within.
...
Deep within the Beidou Academy.
Zhuang Zhou was lying on the back of a giant Kunpeng, fast asleep with his eyes closed, surrounded by faint dreamlike visions and the power of the void.
"boom!"
The moment the rewards from the heavens descended, a vast surge of spiritual energy and the power of the Kunpeng flowed into his body.
Zhuang Zhou slowly woke up and stretched.
There was a hint of sleepiness in his eyes!
Feeling the surging power of the void within his body and the profound mysteries of the Kunpeng he had comprehended in his mind, a lazy smile curled at the corner of his lips.
"That's a pretty good reward. Now that we can traverse the void, I'm afraid no one can catch up with us."
He raised his hand and waved it, and a ripple of emptiness spread out in front of him.
With a slight movement, he left an afterimage in place and instantly appeared at the other end of the valley.
The speed is much faster than before!
The integration of the Kunpeng's profound meaning added a touch of domineering power and vastness to his void power.
The golden light in the sky did not stop for a moment!
As soon as Zhuang Zhou's list information solidified, an even more intense golden light surged forth.
