I Am Overlord

for now. ”

Neither Xiang Shaoyun nor Zhan Wushuang dared to disobey the elder.
So they merely glared at each other before joining with the others on the return trip.

When they arrived at the academy, they found that those who had been eliminated previously were all gathered at the academy ’s training field.
The academy was going to announce the final ranking, and attendance was mandatory.

This ranking would not only rank the recruited disciples of the academy.
The local faction disciples would be included as well.
Thus, competition for this ranking was extremely intense.

The many disciples handed their protective jades to the elder in charge so the final ranking could be determined.
The principal and many elders had also appeared at the training field.
Evidently, they attached great importance to the battleground ’s result.

When everyone was assembled, a miniature stone stele appeared in the principal ’s hand.
He then fused all the protective jades with the stele.
The stele quickly grew in size.
Eventually, it was big enough to loom over the training field.
It started pulsing with radiance, and before long, name after name started appearing on it.

First place, Baili Yixiao; second place, Zhan Wushuang; third place, Xiang Shaoyun; fourth place, Lei Bao; fifth place, Yu Caidie; sixth place, Yu Ziyang; seventh place, Ouyang Chuanqi; eighth place, Ye Linshan; ninth place, Xiao Xie; tenth place, Huang Tianji…

Upon seeing the ranking, Xiang Shaoyun himself was astonished and muttered, ”I actually got into the top three? ”

During the year in the battleground, he had indeed spent a lot of time killing devilish plants.
But during the final month, he had basically stopped.
He would be glad to just enter the top 100.
In any case, the placings were just vanity for him.
He did not care too much about it, and his sole focus was actual growth of strength.
Thus, he was surprised to see that he actually had enough points to enter the top three.

In truth, he was unaware that most of his points were from obtaining the treasures in the secret cave and killing the blood devil vine.
Those two activities had granted much more points than the other activities.

The top 10 had changed massively, with Xiang Shaoyun being the biggest dark horse.
He had actually entered the top three directly, standing side by side with the likes of Baili Yixiao and Zhan Wushuang.

Another surprise was Lei Bao of the local faction.
His tyrannical rise raised many eyebrows, but they were also aware that, like Xiang Shaoyun, Lei Bao was also someone capable of pitting himself against Zhan Wushuang.
Thus, he was worthy of ranking fourth.

As for Yu Caidie, her placement had not changed much, but as she had surpassed Yu Ziyang, her growth astonished many people.
Apart from her, there was also Ye Linshan, who had reached the top eight when before he was only in the top twenty.
He had surpassed Xiao Xie and Huang Tianji, proving his might to all.

The biggest letdown was Han Chenfei, who had remained in the top 10 all the while.
She had fallen to the 13th place, ranking behind Long Shi and an expert from the local faction.

The top 100 as a whole had also undergone huge changes.
For example, Wang Yufeng, Gui Mochou, and some other geniuses failed to get onto the list.
Instead, some other disciples who were previously unknown were now on the top 100, such as Xuan Yuantian, Tang Longfei, and Yuan Xuefen from the Overlord Legion.
They were respectively at the 87th, 93rd, and 98th places.
Regrettably, no other Overlord Legion members managed to get into the top 100.

Apart from the points they had accumulated when acting together as a group, the main reason the three had gotten into the top 100 was because they had all worked hard to remain in the battleground until the very end.
