Chapter 1626: The Test Before the Selection!

Liu Jie had actually completed the Radiance Hundred Sequence ranking and had come in at Sequence #30, reclaiming his title of Heart of the Insect Swarm.

Liu Jie could regain his ranking because it was an honor that the Radiance Sacred Hall bestowed on heroes.

When the Insect Queen had been in a near-dead state that not even the Bamboo Monarch could heal, Liu Jie had no choice but to pull out of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Liu Jie had been so depressed he hid from the rest of the world and became a hermit.

But now that the Insect Queen had healed, it was only natural for Liu Jie to return to the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Liu Jie’s return would undoubtedly make this year’s Radiance Hundred Sequence selection even more exciting.

Sequence #91 to Sequence #100 should be the ones to fight against the new contenders.

But now that Liu Jie beat out the original Sequence #30 Lan Baobao, the Sequences below Sequence #30 all shifted down a spot.

There could only be 100 members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Thus, the original Sequence #90 would now be part of the fray as well, and there would be 11 members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence taking on the new contenders during the selection.

This undoubtedly made this year’s selection even more competitive.

Due to Star Web’s update, Liu Wencheng had decided that this year’s Radiance Hundred Sequence would be taking place on Star Web.

Every member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence was eyeing the Radiance Envoy selection that would be taking place a year later.

Although many of them felt they would definitely fail, they would still fight for the chance to be a Radiance Knight.

Those who had been keeping their true powers under wraps would be showing their hands now.

This was because only the top 30 members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence were eligible to become a Radiance Envoy or Radiance Knight.

Liu Jie was aware of this and thus made sure that he just made the cut at Sequence #30.

But now, Liu Jie knew that Lin Yuan was going to announce his identity as the Moon Empress’ disciple and that he was Black at the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.

Since Lin Yuan was going to reveal how outstanding he truly was, Liu Jie had to follow him as his retainer knight.

Liu Jie was not intending to hide his power at the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection like he did last time.

Rather, he was going to try and attain Sequence #1.

The Radiance Hundred Sequence’s Sequence #1 had remained tightly in the grip of a girl.

Many members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence had missed out on the chance to compete to become a Radiance Envoy but had also reached the age limit.

At that time, they would exhibit their power.

The best opponents for these people would be Sequence #1 of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, Xia Qing.

Three years ago, despite not having even reached 20 years old, Xia Qing had passed the selection and become a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

At that time, she had been a black horse that appeared like a force of nature.

Before her appearance, there had been no news of her on Star Web.

In her second year, when she was Sequence #91, she beat out Sequence #1 of her batch Li Ang. As a result, he fell to Sequence #2.

From the moment she reached the top, Xia Qing requested to change her title from Lack of Oxygen to Fable.

After her title changed, Xia Qing said, “I have to become a Radiance Envoy.”

The meaning behind her title did not have to be analyzed.

News about Fable caused a serious buzz amongst that batch of Radiance Hundred Sequence members.

Many of them had been curious about Xia Qing’s identity, and Liu Jie was no exception.

Many guild clubs had sent her invitations, including the Rhine Guild Club and Dragon Gate Guild Club.

Almost every A-level guild club had sent her an invite.

Given her identity as Sequence #1, she would boost any team.

Moreover, she was powerful enough that Li Ang could not even hold out more than 20 moves against her.

Li Ang had summoned four feys, while Xia Qing only summoned two.

Besides special circumstances like what happened to Liu Jie, the other members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence usually contracted three feys and more as well as some source-type lifeforms.

Thus, Xia Qing had not used her full power against Li Ang yet had been able to crush him.

Liu Jie had been curious about Xia Qing’s background.

She did not come from any veteran or top faction. Otherwise, those within the Radiance Hundred Sequence who came from top and veteran factions would have recognized her.

Moreover, Xia Qing was a recluse.

Besides the annual Radiance Hundred Sequence ranking, she only appeared when she had to announce matters for the Radiance Sacred Hall.

Liu Jie had been unaware of Xia Qing’s background, but he learned about it after becoming Night Leaning Moon’s disciple.

It turned out that she was the granddaughter of that old man.

During this year’s ranking, Liu Jie had focused on her so that he would be able to properly test himself against her.

There was a stage at the front of the Radiance Sacred Hall’s main hall.

At that moment, Liu Wencheng was standing on that stage.

There were five seats below the stage that were usually empty as they were reserved for the Radiance Envoys.

There were 100 seats behind the five seats, and Liu Jie was seated on one of them.

Normally, the Radiance Hundred Sequence members had their designated seats and could not sit anywhere else.

However, there was one day a year when there was an exception, and that was during the ranking.

It was only on this day that there was free seating.

Bai Hao, who was seated next to Liu Jie, asked him, “Jie, why do I feel like you’re different than usual? There is a strong fire in your eyes! Are you planning on climbing even higher?”

Liu Jie nodded.

Wang Fan rubbed his hands together and said, “Bai Hao, out of the three of us, your rank is the lowest now. If you put in real effort, you can break past Sequence #79. Won’t it feel good to reach Sequence #50 and above?”

Bai Hao shrugged.

He was not interested in his Radiance Hundred Sequence ranking.

Bai Hao was well aware that his feys were rather unorthodox. They had explosive power but were not made for endurance battles.

After three moves, they would be as good as useless.

Given his unique battle style, he was not suited to become a Radiance Knight or Radiance Envoy.
