Wang Ye looked down from top to bottom, clearly inspecting each team on the ranking board.
He gathered much information.
As he had predicted, the number of teams on the ranking board was not large.
Of the nearly 18,000 competitors, forming 3,600 teams, currently, only 98 were on the list.
Not even 100!
And the team he led ranked 83rd at present.
There were also 15 other teams tied for the same rank.
They all currently possessed one Earth Divine Jade each.
Although they had made the list, he believed that these 16 teams, hanging at the tail end, would likely not draw too much attention.
"Ten years is not a lot of time, and most definitely, the teams that have obtained 1 Heavenly God Jade and 1 Earth Divine Jade are the most numerous," said Wang Ye, looking at ranks 18 and 83.
The gap between them was still quite significant.
If he had not exchanged that one Heavenly God Jade, he would be tied for rank 13 right now.
That would have definitely been a big problem.
The teams in this ranking interval were almost all led by the top 50 powerhouses.
The weakest among them were all captains ranked within the top 100.
For his team to climb that high would have been too eye-catching.
It was plain telling the other teams—
Come on, hit me!
Get heated!
"The probability is small, the strong remain strong," Wang Ye checked the top ten on the ranking board.
While there were certain effects from team assembly, as long as the captain was strong enough, they could hold a high position for now.
Strength remained the main theme of Divine People Hall's selection process.
"The future will gradually stabilize as well, the top 100 teams will basically be generated among the superpowerful," he pondered softly.
"But the next 100 teams will have much more randomness."
Teams that are good at grouping and strategizing would have more opportunities.
So, is this the goal of this Divine People Hall selection test?
To transition from prioritizing individual strength to a combination of individuals and teams?
Wang Ye examined the ranking board, noting some names that had turned gray.
If his guess was right, it meant they had already been eliminated.
But their teams remained on the board.
That was what Yu Qing True Divine had meant; this selection was based on team ranking.
They weren't picking a thousand powerful individuals.
But rather 200 teams.
There were a few teams where even the captain had turned gray.

They were still on the list for now, but it was just a fleeting moment.
He guessed that in the next ten-year ranking update, they would be eliminated.
"Do you have any discoveries?" Wang Ye looked towards his four companions.
Pooling wisdom can sometimes uncover things he hadn't noticed.
"There are 104 teams from the Infinite Genius Garden, but only 44 are here," stated Nan Zhinv. "The remaining 60 teams cannot possibly all be eliminated."
Wang Ye nodded, "They have the advantage of home ground, and their initial rankings are within the top 1,000, so the standards of the Divine People Hall will likely be higher for them. We can obtain Divine Jade by defeating them, but if they defeat us, they probably won't get much of a reward."
"It's good that you, captain, had the foresight," Nan Zhinv said admiringly.
"Right," Yu Hang voiced, "If we were now within the top 20 ranks, not only would ordinary teams covet us, but the powerhouses from the Infinite Genius Garden would definitely target us as well."
"Yes, although the teams from the Infinite Genius Garden are at a disadvantage initially, they are after all strong and know the terrain of the Infinite Genius Garden like the back of their hand. If they really besieged us, we would be in big trouble," Zuo Qinqin added.
Wang Ye spoke, "But the Infinite Genius Garden still occupies the top two rankings, and conservatively estimated, the first-place Luan Renjiao Team has already obtained the Ultimate Core."
Gun Genius whispered, "They have other means."
Wang Ye gave a light hum, "And the benefits are quite high as well, but they must possess considerable strength to obtain it."
The rest nodded their heads.
Because those ranked at the front were all widely-known genius powerhouses.
"Those at the bottom of the list include many teams whose strength is not very impressive," said Yu Hang. "Many have an average rank beyond 8,000, even beyond the 10,000 mark, and this can't be a coincidence."
Wang Ye understood Yu Hang's point.
One or two teams could be a coincidence, having fished in troubled waters and reaped the benefits like a fisherman standing by.
But when there are nearly ten such teams, it indicates these teams have found one or several of the simplest methods to obtain Divine Jade.
"But their rankings are generally not high," Wang Ye looked at everyone. "So the rules of the current first round of the test are basically clear."
"We can roughly categorize the Divine Jade harvest into three types."
"The first category, low risk, low return, estimated to obtain 90% Earth Divine Jade and 10% Heavenly God Jade, method currently unknown."
"The second category, medium risk, medium return. Estimated to obtain 60% Earth Divine Jade, 30% Heavenly God Jade, and 10% Ultimate Divine Jade, the method involves battling with teams from the Infinite Genius Garden."
"The third category, high risk, high return. Estimated to obtain 45% Earth Divine Jade, 30% Heavenly God Jade, 20% Ultimate Divine Jade, and 5% Infinite Divine Jade, method unknown."
Everyone nodded.
Having such a tactician for a captain made things much easier.
While other teams were still clueless, they had already clarified the entire situation.
Having personally experienced the slaughter for the second category of Divine Jades, they reaped many experiences and pieces of information.
Plus, with the first update of the ranking list, they could essentially make an educated guess.
"What are you all looking at me for?" Wang Ye asked with a wry smile.
Zuo Qinqin was one thing, but Nan Zhinv, yes, you! Staring at me like that, I suspect you're up to no good!
And you, Gun Genius!
You can actually open your mouth and discuss now?
What happened to your social anxiety?
Has a rare Primitive Fruit cured you all of a sudden?
"What's our next move, captain?" Nan Zhinv asked.
"Continue lying low," Wang Ye said. "The current situation is still unstable, increasing our ranking directly would still be detrimental to us, we maintain our strength, scout for intelligence, and react to changes with steadiness."
"In the next decade, we need to unearth all methods for obtaining Divine Jades of the first and third categories."
"By the time of the next ranking update, we should have a complete plan."
"And then pass the first round of major examinations!"
"Yes, captain!" The team responded in unison.

The situation has changed drastically!
The first update of the ranking list brought about earth-shattering changes.
Teams at the top of the rankings were quickly locked in!
Those replacing teams from the Infinite Genius Garden became the primary targets for attention and sniping!
Especially those teams that had members eliminated; they were in even greater danger!
During the first decade, teams from the Infinite Genius Garden, forced to hide, began to tentatively make their presence known again.
But many other teams wisely chose to wait and see.
Patience for the right opportunity!
Especially the weaker teams, who knew very well that even if they were lucky enough to obtain Heavenly God Jades or even Ultimate Divine Jades, they might not be able to keep them.
It was a major gamble.
Only those who could laugh at the end of a hundred years were the winners!
"Infinite Divine Mountain..." Wang Ye gazed at the distant peak soaring into the sky with no end in sight, awestruck by its imposing aura and vast energy.
According to the introduction by the Jade Buddha God, this was one of the most primitive landforms in the Infinite Divine Domains, preserved!
Everything in Divine Mountain formed naturally from the Primitive Cosmic Sea, containing the most primitive Primitive Rules.
Although it was now under the control of the Jade Beauty Divine Race and the danger was within a controllable range, it was still far more dangerous than ordinary fortune divine realms. After all, to guarantee its most original appearance, it was impossible to manage everything in detail.
Great opportunity!
Great crisis!
"This is the third category, high risk, high return," Wang Ye's eyes twinkled.
Most of the powerful teams ranked high on the leaderboard had already entered the Infinite Divine Mountain, seeking their fortunes.
Sufficient strength, sufficient confidence!
"Are you going in, child?" asked the Jade Buddha God, his smile genial.
"Not for now, senior," Wang Ye thanked this teacher from the Infinite Genius Garden.
This is about resources and Cultivation conditions.
The Infinite Genius Garden, with Peak Chaos Divine teachers!
And there was more than one!
Truly enviable.
Suddenly, Wang Ye found himself yearning for the Infinite Genius Garden.
With his comprehension and the meticulous guidance of a teacher, wouldn't he ride the winds and waves, transforming from a cocoon into a butterfly?
"Okay," the Jade Buddha God gave a slight smile and did not press further: "When you are ready, come over anytime."
"Understood, senior," Wang Ye nodded slightly.
Turning around, he went to meet up with his four team members.
They were acting separately, as it was more efficient that way.
During a decade of exploration, everyone had acquired a considerable amount of information.
Not only had they filled in the details for the second category's intelligence, but they also had a strong grasp of the first and third categories.
Just waiting for the second ranking list update to clarify the situation.
Time to make a big move!
