The Supreme Lord Donghuang

Chapter 287: Zhou Donghuang’s rewards

“It’s at 8500!”

“It’s at 9000 now! My goodness! It’s exceeding expectations now!”

“Will it exceed 10000?”

“The last time someone exceeded 10000 points in the Alliance Hunt was at least a few hundred years ago!”

“That was someone who the Qi Dynasty of the Hengliu galaxy sent undercover, and the motive of such an act was to gain the Sky Sun fruit! That person was not from the Alliance. If you want to discuss members of the Alliance who had received more than 10000 points in the Alliance Hunt, we have to dig deep into history as there has been no recent occurrences.”

...

Once He Mengxi’s score exceeded 9000, not only were all the present disciples shocked, even the various Sect Leaders were all baffled as well.

At this moment, the Deputy Alliance Leader, the old man at the mid Divine Transformation stage, was now completely focused on He Mengxi. This was perhaps because he had heard that Zhou Donghuang was probably not going to do well as well as the fact that the rest of the Lightning Sword Sect disciples only had average performances.

“My goodness! She has not finished retrieving all the brains from her space ring... How many beasts did she manage to kill?”

“Did she really kill them all single-handedly? This is insane!”

“Who is she!?”

...

As more and more people turned their attention to He Mengxi, someone eventually recognized her. “She’s the daughter of the Autumn Valley Head, He Jin, of the Lightning Sword Sect. Her name is He Mengxi!”

“He Mengxi? Ah, no wonder her back looked so familiar, it really is her... I did not expect her to accumulate so many points based on her level of training. Even if she was extremely lucky, that’s still a lot of luck!”

“She can’t have possibly attained such results based on good luck alone!”

“Having good luck is one thing... She must have a considerable level of talent as well.”

“Perhaps someone else shared their rewards with her?”

...

The entire crowd was in chaos. Everyone was commenting and gossiping about the matter and causing a huge ruckus.

“Hehe... Baili Feiyang, looks like you can’t even be second this time, just like how I may no longer be able to be the top scorer.”

Hu Jingshan stood beside Bali Feiyang and shook his head while sighing aloud. “I’ve also heard of He Mengxi before. She is not really considered one of the top disciples out of the younger generation in the Lightning Sword Sect, though. She’s only average at best, but she managed to kill so many beasts this time!

“If she accumulated all those points solely on her own, then I applaud her,” Baili Feiyang said.

He Jingshan shook his head again. “That’s practically impossible... Even if we had such good luck, we would get about 9000 points at most. As for exceeding 10000 points, that is no longer a question of luck. Furthermore, we only had three months. Unless you headed for a place where a huge number of ultimate Dharma beasts were gathered, it would be difficult even for people like us to gain more than 10000 points within a mere three months.”

“Mm.”

Baili Feiyang nodded his head, surprisingly agreeing with Hu Jingshan.

“Her points have surpassed 10000!”

Very quickly, He Mengxi’s points had crossed the 10000 mark. At this moment, the atmosphere of the entire crowd did not continue to hype up. Instead, the crowd began to quieten down. “This cannot be her own work! It must be that other people in the Lightning Sword Sect helped her out and shared some of their rewards, sacrificing themselves in the process.”

“I think so too.”

“I really can’t imagine who would be so generous... are they planning to give up their rights to purchase rare herbs and medicine from the Alliance?”

“Men in love are indeed fools... I wonder which fool was stupid enough to give up his right to buy rare herbs and other rare items from the Alliance all for the sake of a woman.”

...

Now, including all the Sect Leaders, there was practically no one who believed that He Mengxi had accumulated all her points on her own.

Even the Lightning Sword Sect Leader, Yu Yucheng, as well as her own father, He Jin, did not believe this.

“10825 points.”

This was He Mengxi’s final results; it was incredibly awe-inspiring. More than one person immediately inferred that there had to have been more than one person who gave up their own brains to He Mengxi.

“Girl.”

At this point, the elder who was the Deputy Alliance Leader glanced at He Mengxi as well.

“How many people shared their spoils with you?

“Don’t worry, even if you share this truth with me, your points will remain intact. I am merely curious.

“When... did the disciples of the Lightning Sword Sect become so united? I’m afraid that in doing so, some people will lose their chance to buy rare herbs and other items from the Alliance in the future.”

The more the elder spoke, the more grave his gaze towards He Mengxi became.

At this point, everyone in the crowd looked at He Mengxi curiously as well. This crowd included the disciples of the Lightning Sword Sect, as they had also assumed that some disciples within them had shared their brains with He Mengxi.

“One person.”

Without any hesitation, once the elder had voiced out his queries, He Mengxi answered extremely candidly. “This is a combination of Da Zhuang and my points... My own points would only add up to about six to seven thousand points.”

Such a reply scared a lot of people once He Mengxi had voiced them aloud.

Many assumed that a group of people had helped her accumulate her points. However, after hearing her reply, they realized that this was merely an accumulation of two peoples’ points!

Furthermore, her original points had reached six to seven thousand?

This would also exceed the score of Ximen Wanwan from the Colored Glass Sect!

“I see.”

He Jin finally understood the entire situation. He gradually realized that the points had included those of Da Zhuang, which was why it had reached such an usually high score.

At this point, Da Zhuang stepped up and said, “In my space ring, there are still the brains of two beasts at the late Dharma stage. From that, I can still accumulate 2000 points.

“Senior told me that these 2000 points are enough for me to gain the right to buy rare items from the Alliance if nothing out of the ordinary occurs.”

Once Da Zhuang spoke, he smiled, and it was hard for anyone to doubt the truth of his words.

Within the Alliance, if one wanted to gain the right to buy rare items from the Alliance, then the points wouldn’t matter. What mattered was one’s ranking... Only those who ranked in the top 1000 of the Alliance Hunt could receive this right.

Most of the time, the top 1000 scorers of the Alliance Hunt would at least have 1500 to 2000 points.

In the past hundreds of years, there hadn’t been a 1000th place disciple who had scored more than 2000 points.

Because of this, He Mengxi had left 2000 points for Da Zhuang.

These points would almost certainly guarantee Da Zhuang a place in the top 1000 of the Alliance Hunt.

Due to the fact that only the top 1000 scorers could gain the right to buy rare items from the Alliance, even the ultimate Dharma adepts from the various sects wouldn’t easily give up the brains they had attained from the Hunt in bulk.

This was because they also wished to be one of the top 1000 scorers.

Although it was easy for them to kill beasts at the ultimate Dharma stage, even with their speed and ability to hunt down such beasts, killing one beast at the ultimate Dharma stage would only give them ten points. They thus needed to kill a considerable number of beasts.

Within three months, unless one’s luck was excellent, they would only be able to kill around 200 beasts of the ultimate Dharma stage and would have to squeeze into the top 1000 scorers.

The ultimate Dharma adepts were all thus extremely careful of their own kills and would not easily give away the points they had, not even to disciples of their own sect.

“You still have 2000 points?”

The old man froze for a second and stared fiercely at Da Zhuang. “Does this mean that you actually had around the same points as He Mengxi? Your original points tally was more than 6000 as well?”

“Yes, that is correct.”

Da Zhuang continued to nod his head and smiled breezily.

Da Zhuang’s candidness made it hard for one to doubt him. Because of this, many people were shocked as they realized that there were two disciples of the Lightning Sword Sect with an extremely outstanding performance in this year’s Alliance Hunt.

“Haha...”

At this point, the Lightning Sword Sect Leader, Yu Yucheng, laughed out loud and glanced at He Jin. “Valley Head He, this time, your Autumn Valley has managed to earn much glory for our Lightning Sword Sect!

“Good, this is very good!”

Yu Yucheng smiled brightly. His spirits had previously been dampened by Zhou Donghuang’s lack of luck. Now, they were lifted again.

“Are they really all disciples of the Lightning Sword Sect?”

Yu Yucheng’s words caused many to glance at He Jin in shock.

Of course, although many believed Da Zhuang’s words and acknowledged that He Mengxi and Da Zhuang had been rather spectacular and lucky this time around, there were also many who felt that Da Zhuang’s words were suspicious. They doubted that two random disciples of the Lightning Sword Sect could truly receive such miraculous scores.

Nevertheless, their opinions would not change anything as the scores were already set in stone.

He Mengxi’s points had exceeded 10000, and she would still be the top scorer of the Hunt.

Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, Da Zhuang activated his own space ring and took out two brains of beasts at the late Dharma stage, successfully claiming his 2000 points.

Seeing this, most of the disciples of the Lightning Sword Sect looked on wistfully and jealously. “I knew long ago that Da Zhuang and He Mengxi were working as a duo... I didn’t think that their luck would be so good! If I had known, I would have followed them!”

They all felt that, be it He Mengxi or Da Zhuang, their ability to accumulate so many points was solely based on immense luck.

After Da Zhuang, it was finally Zhou Donghuang’s turn to step forward.

Originally, most people had lost interest in Zhou Donghuang. However, with the shock of seeing He Mengxi and Da Zhuang accumulate such a high number of points, others had renewed interest and continued to watch the point tabulation as Zhou Donghuang’s turn came.

“Although Zhou Donghuang is indeed strong, with bad luck, he may not even be able to defeat that fool from the Lightning Sword Sect, Da Zhuang.”

“I agree.”

...

Even the Lightning Sword Sect Leader, Yu Yucheng, was focusing on his other disciples’ outstanding performance and was not genuinely caring about Zhou Donghuang. Nevertheless, he paid attention to the scene before him.

Under the attention of the crowd, Zhou Donghuang took out his space ring and began to retrieve the brains of the beasts he had killed on the Guiyao planet.

A considerable number of brains were pulled out from within.

The first few brains that he took out were all brains of beasts at the late Dharma stage.

“What...”

As for the person who was in charge of the records, after tabulating the number of brains of beasts at the late Dharma stage, he became a little baffled. “For the brains of the beasts from the late Dharma stage alone... If one were to count for 10 points, he has already accumulated over 3400 points?”

For the disciples of the late Dharma stage, killing beasts of the late Dharma stage on the Guiyao planet was akin to Alliance disciples at the ultimate Dharma stage killing beasts of the ultimate Dharma stage.

Because of this, as most disciples of the late Dharma stage intended to mainly kill beasts of the ultimate Dharma stage, if they managed to gain about 1000 points from killing beasts of the late Dharma stage, that would already be considered rather impressive.

After all, they were not like the disciples of the ultimate Dharma stage, who solely killed beasts at the ultimate Dharma stage.

However, he had not known that these were only late Dharma stage beasts that had been convenient for Zhou Donghuang to kill. He had not bothered to travel beyond the area he was in to chase after beasts at the late Dharma stage.

Otherwise, from the brains of the beasts at the late Dharma stage alone, he would definitely have accumulated more than 3000 points.

Among the group of late Dharma beasts that he had killed, most had been killed while he was with Luo Qinghan. He was not worried that Luo Qinghan would recognize that he was Zhuge Haotian as there were only a few species of beasts on the Guiyao planet.
