When system cheat becomes rampant!

"Of course there is, Divine Feather City is a place for nearby Daoists to trade cultivation resources," He Qing said.

But after taking two steps, she coldly asked, "You don't have any money, what do you want to buy?"

"Wasn't there that abandoned island last time? I took two zhang of land, it feels like quite a lot, just going to do some casual shopping," Xiang Beifei patted his pocket.

He Qing gave him a sideways glance and said, "Use your two zhang of land sparingly! You don't even have a foothold in the Edge Corner Airspace, and two zhang of land isn't that much, it's best to keep it for building a cultivation cave."

Two zhang of land is enough to build a small island, and with the array concealed, it can drift freely in the Edge Corner Airspace.

"I'm just curious about what a big merchant house would sell," Xiang Beifei said.

"Fine, once I'm done with my business, I'll take you to see," He Qing didn't object.

"By the way, what are you here for?" Xiang Beifei asked.

"To check the Heaven and Earth Ranking of the myriad races at the Dao Palace."

"The Heaven and Earth Ranking of the myriad races, what's that?" Xiang Beifei asked curiously.

He Qing explained, "There are over ten million races in the Edge Corner Airspace, and these races all revolve around the Dao Palace. The Dao Palace is responsible for creating breath soil. To ensure these breath soil resources are fairly distributed to other races, they have set up the Heaven and Earth Ranking of the myriad races, using the rankings as the basis for resource allocation."

"The Heaven and Earth Ranking is divided into the Heavenly Ranking and the Earth Ranking. To encourage the younger generation of talents, those who can rank on the Heaven and Earth Ranking are subject to age restrictions. The Earth Ranking has a total of 200 spots, requiring an age under 1,000 and a cultivation level in the Immortal Realm to be listed. The Heavenly Ranking has a total of 100 spots, requiring an age under 3,000 and a cultivation level reaching at least the Inquiry Dao Realm!"

He Qing paused here, emphasizing again, "The Earth Ranking list is filled with young talents under 1,000 years old, understand? Young! Talents!"

She deliberately leaned close to Xiang Beifei's ear, emphasizing the words "young talents," to educate this reckless kid, lest he suddenly call her an "old granny" again!

"Oh! So you're also a young talent?"

Xiang Beifei suddenly realized.

"Do you even need to ask! Once you're over age, you'll be off the list! I'm on the Earth Ranking."

He Qing snorted lightly.

The implication was clear, being on the Earth Ranking meant she was a genuine, officially certified "young talent" by the Dao Palace!

"Earth Board? That's a weird name, why not call it the Ceiling?" Xiang Beifei muttered.

"Stop with the nonsense!"

He Qing couldn't help but turn and glare at Xiang Beifei.

"What rank are you?"

"Before I went into seclusion, I was ranked 188th."

"That's a bit low, huh!"

"You little rascal, you think getting on the Earth Ranking is that easy?"

He Qing was rather annoyed!

Among thousands upon thousands of races, being able to select 200 young people is an incredible achievement, yet this guy dares to think it's too low?

"Lying on the floor is not hard."

Xiang Beifei shrugged indifferently.

"You... you... do you need a beating?"

He Qing raised her voice, absolutely furious.

Only after saying this did she realize she might have lost her composure.

——Damn, I've developed a transcendent mindset over 500 years of cultivation, how does this kid keep affecting me?

He Qing took a deep breath, calming herself down again, silently reminding herself that he is just a little brat, not to stoop to his level, and definitely not disrupt her mindset.

She coughed lightly, restoring her elegant demeanor.

"So, how do you get on the ranking?" Xiang Beifei asked.

"To get on the ranking, you have to rely on fighting others! If you defeat someone, you can take their rank! Understand? For example, if you weren't on the ranking but you defeat the 99th place on the Earth Ranking, you can directly take their place and become the 99th, while that person's rank disappears, and they must defeat someone else to reclaim a ranking."

"Eh? But you all go into seclusion for long periods to cultivate, right? If you go into seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years without being challenged, can't you permanently occupy your rank? Isn't there no worry about others trying to take your place?"

Xiang Beifei didn't quite understand.

"What you're thinking, the Dao Palace has naturally considered. To prevent this phenomenon, everyone on the ranking must leave the next time and place they will show up. This time can be set by themselves, but it has to be within ten years, so others know and can initiate a challenge.

For example, the last time I fought my way to the 188th place on the Earth Ranking was ten years ago. At that time, I left the information about my next appearance for receiving challenges at the Dao Palace, which is today at Divine Feather City. If others want to challenge me, they will come here today to find me. If I don't show up today, I will lose my ranking."

He Qing explained the rules simply.

"Oh, got it, you're here today to defend your ranking," Xiang Beifei nodded.

"Yes, I'm here to defend my ranking. As long as I hold the ranking today, for the next ten years, I am still on the Earth Ranking and can receive rewards from the Dao Palace."

He Qing and Xiang Beifei walked along the street, and the originally crowded street quickly cleared a path for them.

Walking here, it's beneficial to look human-like.

Xiang Beifei walked while browsing.

The sides of the street were lined with various vendors enticing customers, with all kinds of shouting happening in quick succession, selling a variety of goods.

"The thousand-year-old Divine Rhinoceros horn is now on sale. This horn comes from our Divine Rhinoceros Race ancestor who is 23,000 years old, it can be used as medicine, for crafting, as a trumpet, or as an array core for defense. Limited time offer, with the exclusive shocking price, only a foot of land! Only a foot of land!"
