Others naturally did not know Ye Zhongming's thoughts at this moment, only discussing the ranking of this mutated life.
No matter when, every ranking will naturally have its disputes.
Many expressed their disagreement, saying there was a powerful mutated life in a certain place that should be able to enter the top ten. Some said this list was filled with mutated animals or monsters; what about those mutated plants? The strong individuals among them would definitely not be weaker than these mutated animals. Others said there must be countless ninth-level lives in the sea, making this ranking meaningless.
Of course, some felt that this ranking was still quite good, using some legends they had heard to validate the strength of the names above.
“Some mutated plants are naturally strong, but to be honest, the vast majority of them are found in remote forests or dense vegetation, which makes them hard to find. Moreover, their magic crystals are often hidden in their bodies; everyone can relate to this,” said the captain, and the discussion gradually quieted down until it disappeared.
“This world is too vast, and we are too small to know everything. This ranking is actually a product of careful consideration; everyone should not be too harsh.”
An older man sighed, feeling that this ranking already allowed people to effectively understand the current position of top mutated lives, qualifying as a benchmark.
At this point, Ye Zhongming had already calmed down. Knowing the Armored King's weakness was of little use since it was a ninth-level life. If he faced it alone without the same evolution level, knowing its weakness wouldn’t help.
“Let’s talk about the other rankings,” he said. There were a total of five, and they had only heard one so far, making some anxious.
“Alright, let’s discuss the national area battle beast ranking.”
“This ranking is quite special; it only published the top twenty, and all the battle beasts inside are purely mutated lives and do not include summons and non-permanents.”
“Let’s start from the tenth place,” the captain spoke quickly this time, probably feeling they were nearing the shore. “The battle beast of the Radiant World Army's second army commander, Sky裂Eagle, sixth level, a rare flying type.”
“Ninth place, the battle beast of the Ming City guard group boss, Netherworld Golden Python, sixth level, a mutated python capable of using dark energy.”
“Eighth place, the battle beast of Reborn Mount Hua's leader, Qin Nuo, Little Luo Zhen, sixth level, a humanoid monster; the name he chose is said to be in memory of his deceased child.”
“Seventh place, the battle beast of Nine Dragons, sixth level; yes, it's that famous mutated giant earthworm, Nine Treasures, a lone survivor in the apocalypse.”
“Sixth place, the turtle battle pet of the elder from the Pavilion of Quality—Thousand Years, sixth level, an absolute ruler over that lake.”
The captain listed five battle beasts in one breath, all at the sixth level. If Ye Zhongming and the two others weren't on the ship, those people likely wouldn't even be at the same level as these beasts. Hearing these names put them in a complicated mood.
“The top five are all at the seventh level.”
This single sentence drew everyone's attention back.
“Fifth place, the battle beast of the mysterious owner from the Ogre Chain, Yang Feng, a bizarre energy body battle beast with independent thinking and action capabilities.”
“Fourth place, the battle pet of the resistance area's Zhang Hengtai, Blue Eye. A mutated white tiger with blue eyes.”
“Third place, the battle beast of the boss of Ten Thousand Beast Manor, Li Daqian, who calls himself the Beast King, Colorful Giant Bear.”
“Second place, the battle beast of the divine hall's director, a dragon that is seen but not known in its entirety—Heavenly Language Demon Vine. A very rare mutated plant said to possess extraordinary abilities, but only heard of by name, no one has seen it.”
