571: Chapter 571 Repeated Slaps in the Face

Kalsis and Fiya stood at the edge of the God Stele Forest, looking at the vermilion-gold text on the plaque. Their expressions changed.

Naturally, they both knew that Summon Little Sun was Zhao Zhao's challenge name!

But they hadn't expected that a mere Zhao Zhao could reach such a ranking?

Kalsis's face turned completely green!

He had thought that breaking into the five-digit rankings was the pinnacle of awesomeness, but Zhao Zhao had immediately slapped his face in return?

9999th place, four digits!

He was five digits, Zhao Zhao was four digits!

On paper, it was only a one-digit difference, but everyone knew that there was a chasm between five digits and four digits!

In the tens of millions of years of the Void Realm, how many ancient gods could Rank in the four digits?

And he, just moments ago, had been putting on airs in front of everyone at the Starlight Pavilion, acting like he was the third most powerful person in the world.

As soon as Zhao Zhao's results came out, his five-digit ranking became worthless!

He even began to suspect that Zhao Zhao was targeting him on purpose.

Did she know he was challenging today, know he had broken into the five-digit rankings, and so deliberately chose this moment to slap his face?

It was too damned, too Heaven-Defying, too unbelievable!

Fiya's expression wasn't good either.

She stood beside Kalsis, looking at the text on the plaque, feeling a complex mix of emotions in her heart.

Just a moment ago, she had been thinking that Alke's prophecy was correct, that marrying Kalsis might really allow her to reach a Breakthrough to God Emperor in the future!

A five-digit ranking had already proven his potential!

Yet Zhao Zhao had immediately responded with a four-digit ranking!

9999th place!

She had spent thousands of energy purple crystals to buy a feather of the divine phoenix for Kalsis, and added a flower of origin, just to push him to a five-digit ranking!

And what about Zhao Zhao?

Chen Yi bought her resources to Cultivate, and Zhao Zhao had surged into the four-digit rankings!

The money she spent on Kalsis was certainly not less!

And the result?

One was four digits, one was five digits!

The difference was clear at a glance!

She suddenly felt it wasn't worth it at all!

Why was Zhao Zhao's luck so good?

Finding a man like Chen Yi—rich, generous, and willing to spend!

While the man she found needed her to spend money on him!

And even after spending all that money, he was still inferior to others!

If she had known this, she would have been better off spending all that money on herself!

She was also a Heavenly God, only one step away from being an ancient god!

If those resources had been used on her, perhaps she could have also achieved a Breakthrough to ancient god, and perhaps her strength would be even greater than Kalsis's!

Why place her hopes on a man?

She took a deep breath, suppressing these thoughts. She had already come this far; there was no turning back!

But the seed of doubt in her heart had grown a little more.

The news spread to the taverns, the chambers of commerce, and the headquarters of various major factions.

Everyone's reaction was the same: go to the God Stele Forest and see who this Summon Little Sun really was!

Being at the end of the four-digit rankings was already enough to crush all Prodigies except for Yi Chen and Yue Wen!

If they could recruit her, it would be absolutely beneficial and harmless to their own factions!

Even if they couldn't recruit her, meeting her and becoming familiar would be good!

The crowd began to surge toward the God Stele Forest.

At this moment, Chen Yi opened his eyes from his meditation.

His consciousness returned from the long process of refining, and he felt the whole world become clear.

He pulled up the System panel.

[Name: Chen Yi]

[Rank: Tier 15 (Ancient God)]

[Physique: 1,760,000]

[Spiritual Power: 1,720,000]

[Enhancement Points: 10,000 points]

In two and a half months, he had consumed quite a few Enhancement Points to quickly refine various resources!

After dumping a pile of resources, his attributes had increased by over 200,000!

And because many of the resources were used to improve his Physique, his Physique value had exceeded his Spiritual Power value for the first time!

That feeling of being filled with power was truly refreshing.

"Refreshing! Is this the benefit of being rich? The leveling is indeed incredibly fast!"

"I'm still over 200,000 attribute points away from a Breakthrough to God Emperor. Considering the degree of energy degradation, I estimate it will take another 100,000 energy purple crystals or so to reach it!"

"Fortunately, Chen Yu left me so much money, otherwise I really wouldn't know how to achieve a Breakthrough to God Emperor."

Speaking of this, Chen Yi's smile faded slightly, and his brows furrowed.

Was it really a coincidence that the money Chen Yu left him was just enough for him to achieve a Breakthrough to God Emperor?

From the energy degradation of the chaos crystal, to his need to purchase a large amount of special resources, to Chen Yu leaving behind a huge inheritance, to the System's enhancement effect being just right for quickly refining these resources—

Every step was seamless, as if it had been calculated by someone in advance!

He even began to suspect that all of this had been arranged?

Would he be subjected to Possession by Chen Yu after he achieved a Breakthrough to God Emperor?

Chen Yi was silent for a long time.

To be honest, with his current strength, if he were to return to Blue Star, no world malice would dare to harbor designs on Blue Star anymore!

He could completely return now and live a peaceful life with The girls!

But he didn't know why, he just wanted to see what kind of connection he really had with Chen Yu!

The origin of the System, why he had Transmigration into this world, the scenes in those memory fragments—perhaps everything could be answered!

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time!"

"If I really undergo an Awakening of Chen Yu's memories, I'll accept it!"

"Even if I really awaken them, I won't forget who I am now!"

He called out to Zhao Zhao, but no one answered.

Where had this girl run off to?

"She must have gone out for a stroll by herself, right? The Kingdom of Extreme Evil is so big, where am I supposed to look for her?"

Chen Yi thought for a moment.

It was just as well, it was time to go challenge the main event at the God Stele Forest!

Test his current strength!

Zhao Zhao had said that when he challenged, the whole city would know. When Zhao Zhao saw his name, she would naturally come to find him!

Killing two birds with one stone!

He locked the door and walked toward the God Stele Forest.

There were several times more people on the street than usual.

Everyone was rushing in the same direction, in groups of three or five, discussing animatedly.

"Have you heard? Summon Little Sun has broken into the four-digit rankings! 9999th place!"

"I heard it long ago! I'm talking about that Kalsis, he held a celebration feast just for breaking into the five-digit rankings, but Zhao Zhao immediately slapped his face with a four-digit ranking, isn't that a slap to the face?"

"Exactly! Holding a celebration feast for five digits, if you didn't know better, you'd think he'd broken into the top three!"

"You can't say that, five digits is still very impressive, it's just that there are too many Prodigies this year, five digits isn't enough to look at!"

"That's true! Yi Chen, Lady Yue Wen, Summon Little Sun—pick any one of them and they are all four digits or better. Kalsis's five-digit ranking is really not enough to look at!"

"Speaking of which, that Kalsis mocked Chen Yi at the Bank for having no money, but as soon as Chen Yi acted, he brought out the heart of the kun, 4,000 of them! What about him? He needs his fiancée to spend money to buy a feather of the divine phoenix, how embarrassing!"

"Alright, alright, stop talking, let's go, let's go, if we go late, we won't be able to see anyone!"
