Chapter 159: Points are 0, the sky is falling
Chapter 159: Points are 0, the sky is falling
The competition has been going on for a while and the standings are starting to appear.
A huge light curtain was hung at the entrance to the secret realm, with the sect rankings displayed at the top, followed by the names of each sect leader and their corresponding points.
Initially, due to the randomness of the teleportation locations, the probability of encountering monsters was also different, and the names and points kept flashing and changing. As time went on, people with strong strength gradually emerged, their names began to rise steadily, and the gap in points gradually widened.
[First place: Tingxue Valley, points: 55]
[Second place: Dream Breaking Sect, points: 45]
[Third place: Tian Ping Sword Sect, points: 40]
[Fourth place: Qingyun Sect, points: 30]
[Fifth place: Quren Sect, points: 0]
In the personal points ranking of cultivators, most of those at the top are formation cultivators. With their exquisite formations, formation cultivators can often achieve twice the result with half the effort when hunting monsters and easily obtain a large number of points. This is their natural advantage.
There are two formation cultivators in Ding Xuegu's team, so they are temporarily in the lead.
The Quren Sect is also a double-formation formation, but its points are 0, which is quite eye-catching.
Jiang Tingyun, one of the formation cultivators of the Quren Sect, had a relatively low personal realm, and the secret realm randomly teleported him to the nest of the mid-level monster Black Rock Bird.
The female black rock bird was incubating eggs, the male black rock bird was guarding on the side, and Jiang Tingyun... was shivering among the giant eggs.
The other formation cultivator who went to the Blade Sect was Zhaoying. Good news, he and his teammate Lin Shutong, a pill cultivator, were brought to the same place when they came in. Bad news, Yan Jin from the Dream Breaking Sect was also there.
Generally speaking, 1 Dan cultivator + 1 Zhen cultivator ≥ 1 Jian cultivator.
But that swordsman was Yan Jin, so the two of them were chased all over the map by each other.
Pei Yao and Yu Mianren were both left alone and had not encountered any monsters. According to the meeting method they had agreed upon before the game, the two left marks along the way and finally met after going around in circles.
"I didn't meet Zhaoying and Lin Shutong along the way, nor did I see their marks. I didn't meet anyone from other sects either." Yu Mianren didn't get any information. He didn't even see a bird along the way.
Pei Yao frowned and said, "I did see Yan Jin from the Dream Breaking Sect. I don't know which two unlucky guys he was chasing. I wanted to meet up with you guys first, so I avoided him."
Yu Mianren took a look at the ranking and frowned slightly: "Our points are 0, something is wrong, they may be in trouble."
Pei Yao also took a look and found that there were indeed 0 points.
The two discussed it and decided to leave marks as they walked, killing monsters and looking for people at the same time.
On the way, they met people from the Tianping Sword Sect one after another. Sun Nongqiao and Lin Yanqiu had already joined them. Although the two sword cultivators were very fast in killing monsters, they had no endurance. After the fierce battle, they needed time to recover their spiritual power, and could not get many points in a short time.
Pei Yao was not prepared to engage in a head-on conflict with them for the time being. The destructive power of sword cultivators was too strong. Once a head-on confrontation broke out, even if he could win, he would inevitably pay a heavy price.
In the competition, conserving your strength and finding the best opportunity are the keys to obtaining higher points.
Pei Yao and Yu Mianren avoided them and continued forward, only encountering two mid-level monsters.
On the way, I met Jiang Chao and Yan Qiyun again. One was a sword cultivator and the other was an alchemy cultivator. They were very fierce when killing monsters. They cooperated well, one was responsible for attacking and the other for assisting. The monsters fell one after another and the points continued to increase.
After taking a look at the ranking, it was found that the Tianping Sword Sect had surpassed the Pomeng Sect and jumped to second place.
Although their sect's points were still at the bottom, Pei Yao and Yu Mianren were not worried.
The ranking on the first day doesn't mean anything. They have more important things to do than killing monsters.
The first priority is to find their own formation cultivator as soon as possible and protect him. The second priority is to find the lone people from other sects, crush their identity cards, and weaken the power of other sects.
Yu Mianren smiled: "We don't know whether the people from other sects have joined us, but there is one person who must be left alone."
Pei Yao also raised his lips slightly: "Golden."
Apart from Jin Cancan, they have already met other people from the Tianping Sword Sect. She is a weak formation cultivator who cannot take care of herself, and she might be shivering in some corner right now.
"Go find her!" Pei Yao said immediately.
I've wanted to beat her up for a long time!
On the way to the golden place, the wind is sweet.
The two spent half a day but failed to find even a single piece of the golden clothing, and were nearly hunted down by a four-man team from another sect.
The two of them took some effort to finally escape.
"Spend some points to exchange for props?" Yu Mianren panted and asked Pei Yao for his opinion.
"Sure." Pei Yao answered without hesitation.
The locating item can only be used once per game, but it's definitely worth it if you can find a lone Jin Cancan and eliminate her.
They spent all the 200 points they had worked so hard to earn to buy the Spirit Guiding Compass.
The Spirit Guiding Compass was bronze in color, with a slender needle in the center, which was trembling slightly at this moment. Pei Yao injected spiritual power into it and activated the Spirit Guiding Compass.
A beam of light shoots out from the center of the compass, pointing straight in a certain direction.
The two looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and quickly rushed towards the golden direction.
Little did he know what his action meant.
Zhaoying and Lin Shutong dodged Yan Jin's pursuit like frightened birds, and at the same time, they struggled to find time to hunt low-level monsters in between their escapes. After a busy whole day, they finally managed to save up about 200 points.
Yan Jin's pursuit was like a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, putting them in constant danger of being eliminated.
Unable to bear such high pressure, Lin Shutong discussed with Zhaoying and was about to change the compass to find Pei Yao and the others, hoping to get support from teammates and relieve the pressure, but then he opened the leaderboard and saw -
[Fifth place: Quren Sect, points: 0]
Points are 0?!
The sky is falling.
All efforts vanished in an instant, and despair and helplessness surged into my heart like a tide.
They stared blankly at the glaring zero, their eyes filled with astonishment.
"It's okay. They changed the compass. They must be coming to find us." Zhaoying quickly figured it out and immediately cheered up.
Lin Shutong also gritted his teeth and nodded, thinking that this was the only possibility, and said in a hoarse voice: "Just now on the road, I picked some spiritual plants, enough to refine a few pills. I will take this opportunity to refine some necessary pills. You keep watch for me. Pei Yao and the others should be able to find us soon."
Zhaoying agreed and took Lin Shutong to find a hidden place. He set up several hidden formations in a row and rested on the spot.
