Draconic Banquet
Every four years, a competition known as the Draconic Banquet is held in the domain for youths under the age of twenty-five. To enter the banquet, one needs to obtain a quota from the Dragon Gate Competition. The top hundred youths of the Draconic Banquet are entered into the Dragoncloud Ranking.

The Dragoncloud Ranking is divided into outer and inner rankings, with the outer being ranked 51 to 100 and the inners 1 to 50. The outer ranking is mostly comprised of quasi-overlord forces' disciples while the inner ranking is occupied by mostly overlord forces' disciples.

Usually, the minimum cultivation level required to reach the ranking is pinnacle Yang stage. Inner rankers are generally in the Yin-Yang stage and have entered it with a Profound Eight Grade Martial Soul. Those of the top 10 rankings have come into contact with the Heavenly Soul Realm.

The top ten are also known as the three kings and the seven elites. The seven elites are at the pinnacle Yin-Yang stage while the three kings are at the Heavenly Soul Realm threshold.
