The Dragon Gate Ranking frequently changes.

If a ranked powerhouse doesn't have new public combat achievements after a certain period, their title will vanish from the list—this is said to be done to intensify the competition on the Dragon Gate Ranking, to inspire newcomers to strive and fight hard.

If the distinguished names on the list remained unchanged for a month, how would newcomers ever conceive the idea of toppling those ranked above them?

The Giant Spirit God Lu Liu fell off the ranking even earlier.

After all, Lu Liu's position on the Dragon Gate Ranking wasn't that high to begin with.

However, the venerable name of Totem Arrow God Seventeen still hangs high on the Dragon Gate Ranking. Seventeen has many combat achievements and, after the merger with Lanxing, even had several outstanding battles that made their fame.

Duo Lai, who once briefly tested the waters and climbed into the top ten of the Dragon Gate Ranking, has long since had their name concealed.

Mu Yuan speculates that this isn't because the time limit was reached, but because the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce received news of Duo Lai entering the Legendary Realm and thereupon concealed their name.

However, the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce has never publicly stated the rule on how long a period of inactivity in public combat achievements must pass before a ranked individual's title is hidden.

Loyal readers of the One-Handed Commerce News speculate that the duration of the time limit is related to a contender's rank; the higher the rank, the longer the duration they can retain it.

This theory quickly lost traction.

Uta, who once ranked in the teens, stayed on the list for almost half a year without new achievements;

Lu Liu, who was once in the forties, managed to stay on the list for several months without new achievements.

The durations seemed roughly the same.

This kind of situation is not uncommon.

"It's likely done to mix truths and falsehoods to conceal certain information details. After all, the Dragon Gate Ranking is completely public, and anyone can access this information,"

Mu Yuan guessed.

Just like when Duo Lai disappeared from the Dragon Gate Ranking, outsiders couldn't know if it was because Duo Lai had entered the Legendary or simply hadn't had new achievements for too long, leading to their ranking being concealed.

The information on the Dragon Gate Ranking is also not detailed; it only includes the past combat achievements of those ranked.

The rank, skills, and Artistic Conception realms of the contenders, among other details, are not described.

Some of them even have their territories represented as "???" on the list, like Seventeen. Mu Yuan doesn't believe the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce is unaware of Seventeen's identity; at least six or seven people in Shiling City know Seventeen's origins, so the news couldn't have been concealed.

But to the vast majority of professionals in Shiling City, Seventeen is a strong figure shrouded in mystery, of unknown origin, who hasn't publicly revealed their identity, thus the "???" on the Dragon Gate Ranking.

Lord Shepherd, whose own division generals have been ranked, makes guesses based on his own situation.

"If there were more ranked powerhouses, this guess could be more accurate, but there's no need for that."

"Many lords have a few hidden aces up their sleeves. Which lord doesn't keep something hidden?"

When the report from Sanghun and a few others in Tianze City came via the Spirit Seed, Mu Yuan, who listened to these live broadcasts, was as if he himself had flown to Tianze City...

Which, of course, was impossible.

The spoken word is ultimately unclear, and Sanghun's level of literacy left much to be desired.

Furthermore...

"Having never tried before, I didn't realize it, but now I find that the psychic link is somewhat taxing across great distances, with a slight delay,"

"This issue might gradually improve as more Tianyuan troops are stationed in Lakehaven Academy over time."

...

At this moment, inside Lakehaven Academy, at the Training Field.

The Infinite Heavenly Wolf, Red Shadow, broke through the Water Dragon's Lament Illusionary Killing Formation. This was both a demonstration and a proclamation.

Red Shadow was an instructor at Lakehaven Academy, which showcased the school's profound teaching strength.

After all, a top-ranked powerhouse like this, currently at number 12 and potentially advancing to the top ten, is even rarer than those in the Legendary Realm, much rarer.

Such a powerhouse, once they break through, will inevitably become a force in the Legendary Earth Realm, with a much smoother road ahead than ordinary legends and the hope of reaching the Soul Realm.

After the demonstration, the instructor's recruitment assessment was about to begin.

At that moment, the staff added, "If any applicant fails to last 60 seconds but shows unique methods, the academy will consider them for recruitment. Likewise, if someone can endure for 60 seconds, 120 seconds, 300 seconds, and possesses special methods, our academy will offer even more generous terms to hire them."

As the voice faded, the recruitment assessment officially began.

Applicants proceeded to test in the order they had registered.

Those ranked later didn't have to hurry; the entire assessment process wasn't complicated and might finish in less than half a day.

"Just me? Heh, I've been eager to try this out."

A strong figure holding a large saber stepped forward.

Perhaps seeing how effortlessly the Infinite Heavenly Wolf, Red Shadow, cut through the Illusionary Killing Formation, he appeared completely confident.

He entered the formation and signaled that he was ready. The entire Water Dragon's Lament Formation then buzzed into activity. At the same time, numbers fashioned from countless water flows appeared above the formation, starting the timer.

"1!"

Boom—!

The Water Dragon immediately roared to life, bursting forth with a powerful presence.

One Water Dragon opened its mouth, and a barrage of large water cannonballs shot forth, a skill known as Water Cannon Volley;

Another Water Dragon swung its tail, sending arcs of pale blue water blades slicing down in a fan-shaped pattern, a skill called Water Moon Slash;

And yet another Water Dragon dove from the sky, bringing along a dazzlingly heavy surge of water—a high-tier skill, Dragon God Dive!

Most importantly, the attacks within the Water Dragon's Lament Formation were a mix of real and fake, illusion and reality. If the challenger couldn't distinguish correctly, by exerting their power on illusions, they would be swiftly defeated. Even if they could differentiate, taking too long to decide would leave them vulnerable, causing them to panic and falter.
