There was only a single month left before the Ascension Rankings began. So, Tang Ye didn’t stay in the Grand Myriad Mountains. After he dealt with Feng Yi and recovered from his injuries at the bottom of Death Abyss, Tang Ye rushed back to Talisman Peak. After he returned to Talisman Peak, Tang Ye didn’t see his master, Lin Shan, or Bao’er. Even his younger sister wasn’t here. So, he hurriedly utilized a Transmission Talisman to contact Lin Shan, and after his brief conversation with Lin Shan, he found out that all three of them weren’t at Talisman Peak. It turned out that Lin Shan had head to the Imperial Capital, and it was naturally because of the Ascension Rankings. The members of the Talisman Master’s Association would be invited to act as judges every single time the Ascension Rankings was held. Lin Shan originally had no interest in the Ascension Rankings, but he knew that Tang Ye was going to participate in it this time. So, as Tang Ye’s master, he naturally had to go watch. So, he’d taken the initiative to request to represent the Talisman Master’s Association to participate in the Ascension Rankings. With Lin Shan’s status in the Talisman Master’s Association, his request was naturally approved without question. As for Bao’er and Little Yao, how could Bao’er not follow Lin Shan to join such an exciting event? How could Lin Shan dare to leave her behind when Bao’er resorted to both ‘threats and bribery’? Moreover, since Tang Ye wasn’t at Talisman Peak, so Little Yao had naturally followed them as well. Tang Ye was naturally at ease since Little Yao was with Bao’er and his master. During these past few months with Elder Mu, Tang Ye had been constantly cultivating, so his attainments in the Dao of Talismans had naturally not improved at all. If Lin Shan found out about this, he would naturally be unable to avoid being scolded. So, Tang Ye entered into his room as soon as he returned to Talisman Peak and started to practice crafting technique talismans. On the second day after Tang Ye returned to Talisman Peak, Su Qingshi arrived. In his room, a trace of an unusual feeling arose in his heart as he gazed at Su Qingshi who wore a white dress. After being apart for a few months, this woman before him was still so striking as before and possessed otherworldly beautiful.From some unknown point in time, Tang Ye couldn’t deny that he had affection for this woman that stood before him. If he liked her then he liked her, if he didn’t then he didn’t. Tang Ye refused to deceive himself. Of course, he knew that if he wanted to be together with her, then the difficulty to accomplish that wasn’t any inferior to seizing the first during the Ascension Rankings! Not to mention her identity, whether this woman liked him or not was a huge problem by itself! However, he didn’t have the time to think about all of that now. All he wanted to do now was seize the first position in the Ascension Rankings and obtain the Ascension Token! “You’ve attained the First Heaven Realm?” A wisp of surprise flashed in Su Qingshi’s eyes as she gazed at Tang Ye. However, her gaze recovered to normal in next to no time. Tang Ye’s natural talent wasn’t bad, and he possessed gold element profound energy as well. So, attaining the second rank of the First Heaven Realm in a few months of time wasn’t a big deal. Tang Ye nodded and said, “You probably came here today for something, right?” Su Qingshi nodded lightly and said, “The Ascension Rankings is starting in a month, and I intend to bring you there to see how brutal the battles between those monstrous geniuses are. It’ll be very helpful to you when you participate in the next Ascension Rankings!” “I’m participating in this round!” Tang Ye gazed at her while he spoke with a firm voice. How could he possibly wait for the next Ascension Rankings? His mother was suffering in the Flower Palace! Su Qingshi frowned and said, “You have the strength to surmount your cultivation realm to do battle, but all the geniuses participating in the Ascension Rankings have the same ability. Moreover, your cultivation is too low because practically all the participating geniuses have at least attained the fifth rank of the First Heaven Realm. It’s even to the extent that some are at the peak of the First Heaven Realm. Your current strength is utterly insufficient to rival them!” Tang Ye didn’t speak. A strand of Sword Intent enveloped down towards Su Qingshi, causing her eyes to open wide while shock appeared on her face. She cried out slightly involuntarily. “You’ve attained the 2nd level of Sword Intent?”Tang Ye nodded. Su Qingshi remained silent for a short moment before she suppressed the shock in her heart and said, “That’s even more reason for me to prohibit you from participating in the Ascension Rankings!” “Why?” Tang Ye was puzzled. “The Ascension Rankings is very brutal!” Su Qingshi said, “Every single time, numerous geniuses perish during the Ascension Rankings. The Ascension Rankings is a method utilized by the six great powers and the Grand Qin Empire to contend for geniuses, but it’s also a method to exhaust the geniuses of the other powers. If you reveal your Sword Intent during the Ascension Rankings, then the geniuses of the various powers will definitely not allow you to live. Because your current strength and cultivation makes it the best opportunity for them to annihilate you!”
