Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

Just as Xiao Rulong had said, there wasn't much time left, just under a quarter of an hour.

Chi Jark flew to the stele and immediately erupted with an aura that could rival a Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm.

In the Martial Arts Training Plaza, the faces of many changed, including that of the Vampire King Duke Nick from the Vampire Divine Court, who was currently ranked first on the stele.

"This guy, with just a little opportunity, could fully enter the Golden Core Realm!"

Nick's face was gloomy. Although he was ranked fifth on the genius list, higher than Chi Jark, Chi Jark's strength had now taken him by surprise, seemingly even stronger than his!

Many others from various forces also watched Chi Jark in the air with grave expressions, constantly monitoring and ready to collect information about the prodigies from the Outer Battlefield and report back to their superiors.

Chi Jark, receiving countless gazes from below, grinned and suddenly declared loudly, "Watch how your Grandpa Chi soars to number one!"

Chi Jark was quite smug as he scoffed, leaving the crowd below speechless. Some people directly rolled their eyes.

"Is this how everyone from Xuanyuan Hall behaves?"

"Why is this guy so shamelessly thick-skinned?"

"What a desire to be beaten. If only I could beat him, I'd really like to rush up there and deal with this guy right now!"

In the Martial Arts Training Plaza, many were becoming restless, having never seen anyone so flamboyant as to make such a move in front of nearly a hundred people.

After his playful laugh, Chi Jark looked at the stele again with an unusually serious face.

Chi Jark mobilized all the aura in his body, and the Spirit Essence around him began to boil. Under everyone's watchful eyes, he exploded with a shout in mid-air. The Spirit Essence around him even made a thunderous noise, and powerful air waves surged to either side.

Everyone's expression below slightly changed.

"What an impressive power. It looks like he's gathering strength!"

"Just in the act of gathering strength, and yet he wields such power. Is Chi Jark really just at Half-Step Golden Core?"

"Even among the Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm, he would stand out, so terrifying."

"Quick, write it down; report back when we return. Chi Jark might just be the true super genius of this generation."

"It makes no sense. He wasn't this strong in the genius rankings battle three years ago. How has he become so powerful in just three years? Even the Vampire Divine Court's Nick, ranked higher than him on the genius list, doesn't have such a presence."

A crowd of people buzzed with discussion, all shocked by Chi Jark, who was gathering strength.

Xiao Chuanqi and others were no less astonished. They had no idea that the Chi Family's prodigy, who had seemed somewhat frivolous, possessed such terrifying strength.

Could it be that he was no less formidable than even their master?

Xiao Chuanqi and the others estimated Chi Jark's strength in their minds.

Beside them, Xiao Rulong also raised his eyebrows, scrutinizing Chi Jark in the air, and murmured to himself: "This guy, he's made quite the progress behind my back over these three years."

Although Xiao Rulong said this, his face showed no significant surprise.

In the air, all eyes were on Chi Jark, who had completed his power gathering, his entire being radiating with wildly violent Spirit Essence Energy.

"Mad Dragon Break of Ten Thousand Heavens!"

Suddenly, Chi Jark roared. The powerful Power of Spirit Essence transformed into two lifelike Golden Great Dragons. The two dragons intertwined, rapidly spinning and merging together.

Ao!

A dragon's roar sounded, and the two Golden Great Dragons instantly rushed towards the huge stele.

Boom!

A thunderous, earth-shattering noise erupted, and a massive energy unleashed a hurricane-like gust across the Martial Arts Training Plaza, nearly blowing everyone's clothes off.

Fortunately, everyone present was a prodigy from a Great Power; the dispersed energy couldn't cause any harm.

But at this moment, everyone's eyes were filled with shock. Chi Jark's strength had thoroughly frightened them.

Looking at the power of his technique, Chi Jark seemed quite satisfied, nodding his head and casually entering his name on the stele.

At this moment, all eyes at the scene were on the stele's rankings, and Chi Jark's name had appeared on it.

The next second, his name shot up like a rocket, rushing to the number one position in an instant!

And the former first place, Nick from the Vampire Divine Court, had been squeezed into second position.

The entire side rankings were pushed back by one spot.

This ranking was entirely within everyone's expectations, as Chi Jark's strike had just shown that hardly anyone in the Martial Arts Training Plaza could have withstood it.

Now, the faces of everyone ranked in the top ten on the stele were very solemn, especially Hong Gaishi, who was now ranked eighth and had begun to grow anxious.

From the initial sixth place, he was squeezed to the eighth, and with many people yet to test, such as the Xiao Family's prodigy Xiao Rulong, next to Chi Jark!

Hong Gaishi clenched his teeth tightly. Xiao Rulong was the most outstanding genius of the Xiao Family's current generation and was said to have been on the genius list three years ago. Now that three years had passed, his strength must be no less formidable. Perhaps he could even push Hong Gaishi down another rank!

That would be ninth place!

"Damn it, damn it!"

Hong Gaishi was quite upset, as his current ranking position was dangerously precarious.

As Hong Gaishi pondered, Chi Jark had already flown down and returned to Xiao Rulong's side, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Xiao Chubby, it's your turn. Your Grandpa Chi is in first place, don't you embarrass us too much."

Chi Jark said with a smile, his tone brimming with smugness.

Xiao Rulong shook his folding fan and replied lightly with a smile, "So you think you're amazing just because you're first?"

Chi Jark, not taking offense, grinned and said, "Well, I do have to be a bit amazing, don't I? You're no match for me. If you think you can, try to knock me off my first-place spot."

Looking at Chi Jark's frivolous smile, Xiao Rulong felt somewhat helpless. Honestly, to take away Chi Jark's first place was indeed something he couldn't manage.

"If Brother Ye were here, maybe he could, but I probably can't."

Xiao Rulong shook his fan gently, speaking indifferently.

Chi Jark's expression stiffened. Xiao Rulong's words had successfully left him speechless; he had seen Ye Feng's strength himself. If Ye Feng really were to come, the first place might truly not be his own.

"That guy..."

Chi Jark immediately coughed lightly, not wishing to discuss Ye Feng any further and instead looked toward Xiao Rulong.

"It's your turn to go up, otherwise you'll run out of time."

Chi Jark reminded.

Xiao Rulong nodded, his body slowly rising into the air.

Below, many people started discussing upon seeing Xiao Rulong.

"That prodigy from the Xiao Family of Xuanyuan Hall appeared on the talent list last time too."

"Yes, but he got kicked off by that guy Savis. He was originally tenth."

"That's still very strong. With three years passed, could he be another dark horse like Chi Jark?"

"Hard to say. The Four Great Ancient Clans of Xuanyuan Hall should not be underestimated. Xuanyuan Hall already occupies four spots now; if they take another, that'll be five!"

Members of the Three Great Powers other than Xuanyuan Hall were somewhat anxious; four people on the stele's top ten were now from Xuanyuan Hall.

First place Chi Jark, fourth place Golden Cicada, seventh place Bu Tianyun, and ranked eighth, Hong Gaishi!

All four of them!

The people from the other Three Great Powers at the scene were all restless. The Western Vampire Divine Court had three members on the list, occupying second, sixth, and ninth place.

Fusang Yin-Yang Hall had third and fifth, securing two spots.

And the Wizard Alliance of Snow Wolf Country had fared the worst, with only one spot still on the list, the tenth. The genius of the Wizard Alliance of Snow Wolf Country, Savis, should have had no trouble securing a spot in the top ten but, unfortunately, he disqualified himself by using drug-induced power.

Xiao Rulong now became the center of attention, being a prodigy of the Ancient Clan with the strength from the last talent list.

Xiao Rulong fluttered his folding fan in the air, still wearing a smile and a somewhat naive look, but then the Spirit Essence within his body began to surge wildly, his aura climbing steadily.

Soon, his aura peaked.

On the Martial Arts Training Plaza, everyone's expression changed; the aura was not much weaker than Chi Jark's just a moment ago.

"This is insane, insane, insane, how did Xuanyuan Hall produce so many demon creatures!?"

"How are the rest of us supposed to live if you keep this up, monopolizing the Spirit Essence Pool?"

"Bizarre, so bizarre. According to historical records, Xuanyuan Hall usually only has about three, or even just two. How could so many powerful Half-Step Golden Core this time appear?"

People from the other three powers were somewhat exasperated, with the Wizard Alliance of Snow Wolf Country being the most infuriated. They only had one spot in tenth, and Xiao Rulong's aura clearly indicated that a top ten spot would be no issue!

Now, all members of the Wizard Alliance of Snow Wolf Country looked at Savis like they wanted to kill him. This wasn't only about the individual gains but also concerned the prestige of the entire Wizard Alliance.

"Don't panic just yet. The Xiao Family of the Ancient Clan of Xuanyuan Hall is known for their footwork; maybe Xiao Rulong's offensive power isn't that strong!"

A wizard from the Wizard Alliance of Snow Wolf Country tried to console everyone.

However, just as those words fell, a low shout suddenly came from Xiao Rulong in front of the stele.

"Sky Splitting!"

Xiao Rulong stood erect and stomped furiously at the stele.

Boom!

The powerful Spirit Essence erupted with the stomp, and the explosive energy spread out like a bomb, sending wave after wave of shock ripples. Everyone in the Martial Arts Training Plaza felt their bodies shake.

It was clear without further discussion that the power of this stomp was definitely not weak!

Xiao Rulong, with a calm face, shook his folding fan. With his other hand, he air-typed his name before hitting the stele.

Soon, Xiao Rulong's name appeared on the stele.

Starting from the bottom, it rolled up past over sixty names, finally stopping right below Chi Jark, securing the throne of second place.

The wizard from the Wizard Alliance of Snow Wolf Country who had spoken earlier instantly stiffened, as the blow to his face came all too quickly.
