Beiye Benzong's eyes slightly narrowed as he heard Chen Yuan was ranked second on the forbidden list, and a sharp light occasionally flashed through them.
Although he had not been on the forbidden list himself, he possessed the strength worthy of it.
Beiye Benzong had challenged many masters from the forbidden list in his time, and although he had retired, there were still many he knew on that list.
He also knew that the top three of the forbidden list hadn't changed for decades.
"The third and second places on the forbidden list, Death God and Son of the Sun, are individuals who had confronted and successfully escaped from the armies of great nations. This young man surpassing both of them shows that his strength is indeed formidable."
A flash of sharp light passed through Beiye Benzong's turbid eyes, and he relaxed again, his eyes slightly closed, tapping the armrest of his chair gently, looking frail as he spoke.
