Ye Qingchen has made it to the Bronze List!

This news swept across the Eight Sects like a hurricane, unstoppable.

In an instant.

The Eight Sects were shaken.

As we all know.

The Bronze List and the Talent Ranking are not the same; the former is of high value, and those who make it are no exception—they've been practicing within their sects for several years and are of strong talent!

Some talents spend their whole lives without ever touching the Bronze List.

But how long has it been for Ye Qingchen to defeat Lin Fan and ascend to the Bronze List? It's simply beyond everyone's imagination!

"Regretful! Such talent, and yet we once believed one person's claim and pushed him away."

An elder from Xingluo Sect beat his chest, lamenting his earlier decision.

"It's all Celestial Essence Sword Sect's fault. If it weren't for their interference, how could we have missed out on such talent and even become enemies?"

An elder from Shifang Sword Sect was furious.

"Indeed, in just half a year, he's left Lei Qianjue, Chen Beixuan, and Zhao Yue far behind. Imagine what would happen if we gave him a few more years?"

An Elder from Supreme Sect sighed heavily.

With the strength and potential Ye Qingchen demonstrated, the Eight Sects regretted more than ever.

Even the Eight Sects felt this way.

Not to mention the disciples.

"Do you know? Lin Fan from the Bronze List has been defeated!"

"Are you serious? Lin Fan was defeated?"

"It's true. In front of everyone, Lin Fan was defeated in just three moves!"

"Who could do this? Did he provoke other monstrosities on the Bronze List? Besides them, I can't think of anyone else!"

"Taotian Palace's Ye Qingchen!"

In a moment.

Ye Qingchen's name surged forth rapidly, even more so than when he won Newcomer King, even more wildly.

Everyone who heard this news was astounded.

Reportedly.

When the news reached Lei Qianjue, he smashed everything in the room, then fell into deep silence.

The news reached Chen Beixuan, who sighed deeply, almost giving up on practice despite being a martial artist fanatic.

Zhao Yue directly went into closed-door training, refusing to see anyone.

Even the top three on the Talent Ranking felt a deep despair, let alone everyone else?

"The Bronze List!"

Everyone went silent.

The teenager they once ridiculed as having nowhere else to go, joining Taotian Palace, now ascended to the Bronze List they didn't even dare to dream of. Imagine the immense shock it brought them!

Even some veteran disciples were taken aback.

"Ye Qingchen's practically defying the heavens! My whole life, I've not even touched the edge of the Bronze List, and he made it in such a short time—his prospects are limitless!"

"Indeed, comparing myself to him is frustrating. The Eight Sects actually expelled such talent. If Ye Qingchen sits firmly on the Bronze List, progressing even further, the Eight Sects must be regretting badly by now!"

Jealousy filled the eyes of veteran disciples.

"Not necessarily!" An informed person sneered: "The Bronze List isn't so easy to remain on. Do you think it's just an ordinary list? Besides, Ye Qingchen's timely listing will immediately make him a target for many veteran disciples of the Eight Sects!"

"What do you mean?"

"The Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference!"

...

Many disciples unaware of the Bronze List's significance suddenly noticed unfamiliar faces appearing in their sects—faces belonging to longtime secluded veteran disciples.

"Clang!"

Celestial Essence Sword Sect.

On Divine Sword Mountain, sword sounds reverberated.

Subsequently.

Numerous disciples of Celestial Essence Sword Sect watched as a disciple, like a Sword Immortal, soared through the sky with Sword Control. The sword's force surged magnificently, piercing the heavens, tearing the clouds.

"Is that Lu Changsheng?"

Someone recognized the disciple as Lu Changsheng, who was ranked 72nd on the Bronze List a year ago, but was delisted due to inactivity.

At the same time.

Xingluo Sect.

A dragon's roar reverberated over Celestial Sea Lake.

That day.

Disciples practicing by Celestial Sea Lake witnessed a heaven-shocking scene. The entire lake turned into raging tides, overturning rivers and seas. Countless lake waters swept up like a dragon drawing water, shooting straight into the sky, several hundred meters high!

And atop this monstrous wave, a young man appeared, stepping out.

"It's Gu Shentong!"

Someone recognized the youth.

Gu Shentong hailed from the previous generation of disciples.

Since joining Xingluo Sect, he's never made a move. Still, none dared to underestimate him, as rumors said his strength wasn't weaker than the Bronze List experts.

Not just Xingluo Sect and Celestial Essence Sword Sect.

In Shifang Sword Sect, Supreme Sect...other major sects, formidable veteran disciples emerged.

Each of these veteran disciples possessed strength surpassing Lin Fan's.

Their appearance caused a sensation.

These veterans, usually discreet, suddenly emerged one after another, naturally causing an uproar!

"Why are these veteran disciples suddenly appearing? Could it be because of Ye Qingchen? He's just joined the Bronze List—a mere name. Is it that important?"

Many felt puzzled.

"They can't sit still!"

Someone sneered:

"Although they don't care for the fame of the Bronze List, its ranking is significant. Even without Ye Qingchen, they wouldn't remain secluded; they'd find an opportunity to challenge the strong from the Bronze List and secure their position."

"It's just that Ye Qingchen happens to be in their crosshairs!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, truly pitiful! Ye Qingchen likely won't stay on the Bronze List for long...because it's the most competitive time for the Bronze List. Those at the top may be better off. As for those ranked toward the end, they'll likely face suppression!"

Originally.

Many who saw Ye Qingchen ascend to the Bronze List were filled with envy and jealousy.

But with more veteran disciples appearing, many suddenly realized what's happening, and their attitude towards Ye Qingchen turned into mockery and schadenfreude.

All due to the upcoming Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference!

...

Yet Ye Qingchen was unaware of all this.

He, along with Hong Man, Jiang Churan, and Ye Qing, had already returned to Taotian Palace.

However.

To Ye Qingchen's surprise, upon returning to Taotian Palace, he encountered two unexpected people!
