"Extra! Extra! Hot off the press, the latest Dragon Gate Ranking is here! Would you like a copy?"

On the streets of Pan Shi City, a newspaper boy held a stack of newspapers, waving and shouting.

In no time, the area around the newspaper boy was surrounded by layers of people.

During times of peace, the brand new release of the Dragon Gate Ranking was big news indeed. In Eternal World, where games and internet were scarce, these business reports became bestsellers.

People rushed to buy them, eager to see for themselves.

After all, the recent changes in the Dragon Gate Ranking had been unimaginably intense. There were instances where warriors ranked in the middle of the list one issue would plummet to the brink of falling off the bottom of the next issue.

For elite fighters aspiring to make a name for themselves and their territories by competing in the Dragon Gate Ranking, this was a period of intense rivals clashing.

It's too competitive!

Competitive to an outrageous extent!

Do you understand how it feels to be on the cusp of making it onto the Dragon Gate Ranking, only to suddenly find even the end of the list out of sight?

It's despair!

But for the countless onlookers of the Tai Xuan Alliance, this period was spectacular, with divinities battling and powerful warriors emerging.

Rising and falling ranks—that's where the fun was.

Exciting!

"Come on, come on, let's see how many strong fighters have dropped off the list this time."

"But this issue was released a bit too quickly, wasn't it? Didn't they just update the Dragon Gate Ranking a week ago?"

"So what if it's fast? I wish they'd update it every day."

"That's only if there's a change to the rankings, though."

Bystanders read the rankings for fun, most of them unaware of the might of those at the Fourth-order Limit of Great Perfection, nor do they understand what it signifies.

To the majority of people, the strong and imposing figures on the ranking seem more like stars from the during Lanxing's period.

In this era, only the powerful could be stars.

And the Dragon Gate Ranking was the closest thing regular folks had to a celestial list of stars.

There were also many who began to chase after these star-like warriors in Eternal World, rooting for them on the rankings.

Entertainment reports even laid out the top ten most popular fighters on the Dragon Gate Ranking.

The Officials didn't oppose this.

After all, the "stars" being chased were each a prodigy of the Dragon Gate, and descriptions of their combat power on the rankings often included phrases like "one person defending a city," "solo battling numerous monster bosses," "turning the tide," "sweeping thousands of enemies," and so on.

These were all positive combat achievements that served as a correct guidance.

If the Dragon Gate Ranking could inspire some young people to embark on the path toward becoming powerful, it would be hitting two birds with one stone.

Laymen watched for the excitement, but the experts looked at the details and secrets.

"Lord, the Dragon Gate issue, choked on it."

A Black Knight handed over a crumpled newspaper, stuttering as he spoke.

Jiang Luoxing didn't mind.

A baby who had only awakened self-awareness two months ago would be like this.

Not having accidentally torn the newspaper, that was already good progress.

He took and unfolded the newspaper, quickly scanning from the top.

Beside him was Lord Yu She, who had also come to Pan Shi City with his division generals for an instructor interview.

Yu She also leaned in, reading aloud.

"The Dragon Gate Ranking lists a total of two hundred warriors (including Lords, heroes, military types, and professionals) from the Tai Xuan Alliance. This ranking is based on the recorded highest achievements of the listed individuals; it does not necessarily represent the peak combat power of those listed.

Even if an Epic Life is endowed with both Light of Will and Domain as a Legendary Seed, it will not be included without publicly known combat achievements."

"The ranking of the Dragon Gate is evaluated by professionals and special Miracle Buildings, and there may be a small margin of error compared to the actual ranking. The final interpretation right of the ranking belongs to the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, the Chamber of Commerce welcomes journalists to provide more detailed information."

"There has been a significant change in the ranking of the Dragon Gate in this issue, with 74 emerging strong fighters entering the list, 56 of whom are making their debut."

Yu She hissed sharply after reading that.

"Out of the two hundred spots on the Dragon Gate Ranking, seventy-four have been squeezed out—this is too intense. Does that mean that more than 120 fighters from the previous issue are likely to fall off the list? No wonder the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce was in such a hurry to release the new ranking."

Jiang Luoxing was also trembling as he read, "Thank goodness our people aren't on the list, or we'd be swept away."

Yu She: "...Is it something to be proud of, that we can't make the list?"

Jiang Luoxing: "... Suddenly feeling sad."

Right now, they hadn't managed to train even a single Fourth-order Leader Level person, and they had no chance of competing for a spot on the Dragon Gate Ranking in the next year or two unless they stumbled upon a great opportunity.

The two then turned the newspaper to the next page, starting with ranks 101 to 200—the "earth list."

That way, they could maintain a sense of anticipation.

The current Dragon Gate Ranking could be seen as follows: ranks 101 to 200 were Fourth-tier title holders; ranks 51 to 100 were Third-tier title holders; ranks 21 to 50 were Second-tier title holders; ranks 11 to 20 were First-tier title holders; the top ten were Zero-tier—supreme, invincible fighters.

The seventy or so new entrants were mainly concentrated in this lower half of the list.

"No. 198 'Sword of Billow·Li Jian,' he's from Lord Bolan's city, isn't he? I remember him making the Dragon Gate Ranking two issues ago, then quickly getting squeezed out, but now he's surged back."

"Let me see his achievements... During the Jackal Man tribe's punitive campaign... During the Root of Corruption eradication battle... There are too many achievements to count."

Jiang Luoxing realized upon reading that the Sword of Billow was desperately contending for a place on the list.

After all, the ranking was "achievement-oriented," and sometimes it required powerful enough enemies to highlight one's extraordinary combat power.
