The Half-emperor elder hadn't even announced Wu Bufan's number when the surrounding Earthly Kings couldn't help but exclaim.
The number of Emperor Pills on the ground was truly shocking.
The Black Demon Sect's Devil Son's eyes were filled with unwillingness as he murmured to himself, "If that brat hadn't ruined my plans, I wouldn't have lost out to him."
The people from the other great powers were all shocked. They didn't know how many dangerous places Wu Bufan had gone to to obtain so many pills.
The other nine people from the Martial Spirit Court all revealed arrogant expressions, as if Wu Bufan's glory was their glory.
"Senior, you can announce the numbers now," Wu Bufan said calmly to the half-emperor elder who was in a daze. There wasn't the slightest bit of arrogance on his face, as if he would always have an amiable expression.
The old man returned to his senses and nodded. "The Martial Spirit Pavilion's Wu Bufan has obtained 1,581 Emperor Pills."
"Hiss!" Everyone in the surroundings gasped when the Half Martial Emperor old man announced the number.
This was the first person to obtain more than 1,000 pills today, and it was likely that he would be the last.
Who knew how many dangerous places he had to go to to obtain so many pills?
"Alright, is there anyone who hasn't inspected the pills yet? If not, then we'll announce the results," the elder said faintly.
After a minute of silence, the elder was about to say something when a figure walked out, "I'm sorry, I haven't inspected yet."
"It's Ling Xiao. That bastard is finally willing to go up and inspect. He's more arrogant than anyone else!"
"That's right, but I can fight as well as he does, so what's the harm in acting arrogant? I just hope that Ling Xiao can obtain the title of first Emperor. Otherwise, the Martial Spirit Court will monopolize everything. How boring."
"This Ling Xiao is so handsome. If he takes a fancy to me, I don't mind being his concubine."
"Just give up. The Eastern Princess has taken the initiative to pursue him, and one of the Feng Family's Pearls is Ling Xiao's wife. With your looks, how could he possibly like you?"
…
The Emperor Stage cultivator looked at Ling Xiao with displeasure. Normally, the last to appear would be from the 18 great powers. Now that this lone ranger was the last to appear, he couldn't help but want to show off. He immediately became displeased with Ling Xiao.
"Hurry up. How many Sovereign pills do you have? Let me inspect them right away," urged the Thearch.
Ling Xiao scratched his head and revealed an embarrassed expression. "People have three urgent needs. Ling Xiao didn't inspect them on purpose. Please don't misunderstand, Sir."
As soon as he said this, the surrounding Earthly Sovereigns all wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to.
All of them were cursing inwardly, "This bastard is f * cking outrageous! He actually dares to speak to an Emperor-ranked powerhouse like that!"
The Emperor Rank expert's face darkened, and he immediately shouted, "Hurry up! I don't have time to waste with you!"
"Yes, yes …" Ling Xiao repeatedly replied before a pile of Sovereign pills appeared on the ground.
The Emperor Rank old man looked at the Sovereign pills on the ground and felt a bit better. He immediately said, "Not bad, there are a total of 735 pills. Alright, you can announce the results of the Imperial Ranking Tournament!"
"Uh … My … My Lord, I have more!" Ling Xiao hurriedly interrupted the Emperor Rank old man.
The Emperor Rank old man shouted angrily, "Then why don't you take them all at once!"
Ling Xiao quickly took out dozens of spatial rings.
The Emperor Rank old man and the surrounding people didn't know what Ling Xiao was doing. Could it be that these spatial rings were all stolen? Didn't he see the number of Sovereign pills inside?
Immediately afterward, everyone watched dumbfounded as Ling Xiao took out the Sovereign pills from the spatial rings one by one.
"There are some here … there are some here as well, why are there so few? Dammit … Hmm, this is still passable …" Ling Xiao looked through the spatial rings one by one and took out the Sovereign pills. When he saw the small number of Sovereign pills, he couldn't help feeling a bit annoyed, but when he saw the large number, he wasn't surprised.
However, in the eyes of the others, Ling Xiao was a monster. Just how many Earthly Sovereigns did he rob to obtain so many Sovereign pills?
If Ling Xiao heard their words, he would immediately cry out in grievance. They were the ones who took the initiative to rob him, this Young Master had no choice but to rob them!
Each spatial ring had dozens of Sovereign pills, and occasionally one or two hundred. With so many Sovereign Pills added together, there should be at least five or six hundred in total!
This number was infinitely close to Wu Bufan's.
Wu Bufan, who was standing to the side, also revealed a slightly moved expression.
Over at the Feng Family's side, Ji Beixin couldn't help but exclaim, "Xiao Xiao, he's always so unexpected, so handsome!"
Feng Wuying took a sip of wine and said, "This guy likes to show off too much, he doesn't even know how to keep a low profile!"
"Hehe, I'm laughing at his personality. Most of the time, he's like a child, but sometimes he's like an emperor, making people feel that he's a bit serious and scary. But he's always been very considerate to me," Ji Beixin said with admiration.
Feng Yaxin interjected, "I'm afraid it's not just to you, he's just as considerate to other women!"
Just as Ling Xiao finished taking out these spatial rings, the Emperor Rank old man revealed a look of shock, but he nodded lightly and said, "There were 735 before, and now there are 583, that's a total of 1318. Good, good … this number is second only to Wu Bufan."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, not only did the surrounding Earth Sovereigns not exclaim in surprise, but they instead had looks of pity.
They felt that Ling Xiao was a dark horse that had a high chance of surpassing Wu Bufan, but unfortunately, he was still short by more than 200 pills. It seemed that the position of first Martial Emperor had fallen into the hands of the Martial Spirit Pavilion.
The people of the Martial Spirit Pavilion breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, when they saw Ling Xiao take out so many Emperor Pills one after another, they were really shocked. If the position of first Martial Emperor was taken away by someone without any force to rely on, their expressions wouldn't look good.
"Alright, you can leave now, I'll announce the rankings!" The Emperor Rank old man glanced at Ling Xiao who had yet to leave and said.
Ling Xiao scratched the back of his head and said with embarrassment, "That … Sir, I haven't taken out all the Emperor Pills yet, how can you announce my number so soon?"
The Emperor Rank old man's face darkened as he couldn't suppress his anger and roared, "Then what are you still dilly-dallying for? Do you really think this Emperor is that patient?"
Ling Xiao's face was sprayed with saliva and he repeatedly said, "I'll take them out … I'll take them out!"
However, in his heart, he was thinking disdainfully, "Could there be some kind of virus in this old man's saliva?"
Then, Ling Xiao took out a Space Ring and grinned foolishly, "I almost forgot about the treasures I used to watch you win!"
Saying so, he took out all the Emperor Pills from the Space Ring.
A large pile of Emperor Pills fell to the ground.
When these Emperor Pills appeared, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.
Even Wu Bufan, who had always been calm, had a slightly moved expression on his face.
"This is impossible, how could he plunder so many Emperor Pills?"
"The facts are right in front of us, this Ling Xiao is destined to become the First Martial Emperor of this generation, this Ling Xiao is really too terrifying!"
"As expected of the monster that defeated the Sacred Battle Ape, who else in this generation can be his match? After he breaks through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm, I'm afraid he will also be able to suppress his peers!"
"Yes, this guy is too abnormal. Who knows how many dangerous places he went to to obtain so many Emperor Pills, some even have Emperor Rank Remnant Souls in them. Even Heavenly Venerables don't dare to approach them easily, I really don't know how he did it!"
…
The surrounding Earthly Sovereigns were discussing in horror, the expressions on their faces were very interesting.
"Jingjing, you really have good taste in choosing this husband!"
Dongfang Xiong of the Dongfang Family couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Dongfang Jing. He looked at Ling Xiao as if he couldn't wait to make Ling Xiao his brother-in-law!
Dongfang Jing's seductive face revealed a trace of pride as she said, "I just felt that he was extraordinary, I didn't expect him to surpass that monster from the Spiritual Martial Pavilion. It seems that I, Dongfang Jing, can't let this man go no matter what!"
Dongfang Jing was also speaking the truth, she also didn't expect that Ling Xiao could surpass Wu Bufan and seize the position of the First Martial Emperor!
On the Feng Family's side, Ji Beixin exclaimed with joy, "I knew that laughter is always the most outstanding!"
Feng Wuying drank a mouthful of wine, lightly flicked his scattered hair, and said, "Is this guy still human?
He actually seized so many Emperor Pills, too abnormal! "
Feng Yaxin's beautiful eyes flashed with a strange light, but her heart was extremely complicated.
The more outstanding Ling Xiao was, the more she felt conflicted in her heart. Could she really let such an outstanding man slip away before her eyes?
On the Gu Family's side, Gu Yufei's resentful gaze became even more gloomy, and he clenched his fists tightly as he said in his heart, I'll let you be complacent for a few days. Once I return to the clan, there'll be no place for you to hide in the central territory!
On the other hand, Gu Xiaohe felt extremely bitter in her heart. She really wanted to disregard everything and pounce into Ling Xiao's arms and say that she liked him.
However, her older brother had formed enmity with Ling Xiao, so what other choice did she have?
The beautiful eyes of the Earthly Emperors in the surroundings revealed amorous gazes as they gazed at Ling Xiao, and they wished for nothing more than to strip naked in front of Ling Xiao and seduce him.
Ling Xiao exclaimed lightly, and then he said to the Emperor Rank old man, "My Lord, I only have a few Emperor Pills left, I don't have any more!"
I only have a few Emperor Pills left!
This sentence was like a slap on the faces of all the Earthly Emperors, and it caused them to feel extremely uncomfortable and burning.
There was no need to count to know that there were more than 2,000 Emperor Pills, and he was already the person who'd obtained the most out of all the Earthly Emperors. However, he'd actually said that he only had a few. Wasn't this purely trying to make others die of shame?
The Emperor Rank old man heaved a sigh of relief, and he recovered from his shock. He swept the list with his divine sense before he continued to read, "Ling Xiao of the northwest, 2,318 Emperor Pills!"
This number was 737 more than Wu Bufan's 1,581 Emperor Pills!
The surrounding Earthly Emperors couldn't help but gulp when they heard this number, and they were so shocked in their hearts that they didn't know how to describe it.
The expressions of the other Half-Realm Emperors had become quite interesting as well, and their gazes towards Ling Xiao had become scorching hot.
All of them had the same thought in their minds, and it was to rope him in no matter what!
