The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2161 - 1261: End of the First Round

Of course, even hearing Xin Qianyue say so personally, many people still don’t believe that Jing Yan truly possesses such strong strength. What can be confirmed now is that Jing Yan’s strength is not weak, and the Xin Family spending fifty billion Black Crystal Stones to hire Jing Yan is worthwhile. The Yellow Springs Points of the Xin Family are still rising, indicating that Jing Yan is still killing Ghost Pattern Beasts inside the secret realm.

”Three hundred and twenty points!” someone whispered.

This number has already surpassed the Points of one of the Four Great Forces, the Ancient Land of Morning Light.

Mystic Moon Trading House has three hundred sixty-two Points, Shadow Tower has three hundred fifty-one Points, and Ancient Land of Morning Light has three hundred fourteen Points. At this time, the Xin Family’s Points have already reached three hundred twenty, surpassing the Points of the Ancient Land of Morning Light. And representing the Xin Family in the first round of the contest, Jing Yan’s illusion body is still inside the secret realm.

”Three hundred thirty points!”

”Three hundred forty...”

”Could it be that in the first round of the contest, the Xin Family’s Yellow Springs Points could surpass the Mystic Moon Trading House?”

”Inspector Ao Hong’s face is looking very bad right now! He spoke a lot just now, and now he doesn’t say a single word.”

”He must be feeling uncomfortable. I heard that when Mystic Moon Trading House previously contacted Jing Yan, they offered only fifteen billion Black Crystal Stones to hire him. I can certainly say, Inspector Ao Hong might be regretting not agreeing to pay fifty billion Black Crystal Stones now.”

”Indeed. Although the Ancient Land of Morning Light and Shadow Tower didn’t hire Jing Yan, they had no contact with him prior. They may have some regrets but won’t feel as bad as Mystic Moon Trading House. Moreover, both the Ancient Land of Morning Light and Shadow Tower rarely surpass Mystic Moon Trading House.”

Many Heavenly Monarchs are whispering to each other.

Mystic Moon Trading House is indeed terrifying. Among the Four Great Forces, the other three forces belong to this regional level. Mystic Moon Trading House, however, is considered an Immortal Domain Level force; its background easily surpasses that of the Ancient Land of Morning Light and other forces.

While the Heavenly Monarchs are discussing, the Xin Family’s Points have reached over three hundred fifty and show no signs of stopping.

A few breaths later, the Xin Family’s Points reached three hundred sixty-six, surpassing the Mystic Moon Trading House’s total.

At this moment, Inspector Ao Hong relaxed his tense body.

”I didn’t expect it!”

”I didn’t expect our Mystic Moon Trading House would lose to a kid from the Nether Sky Realm.” Inspector Ao Hong thought with some self-mockery.

”However, this is only the first round, and there are still two more rounds to come.” Inspector Ao Hong’s eyes flashed as he clenched his fist.

”Clan Leader Xin, congratulations.” Inspector Ao Hong said reluctantly to Clan Chief Xin Si.

”Inspector Ao Hong is too polite. It seems that hiring Little Friend Jing Yan for fifty billion Black Crystal Stones was very worthwhile. Without Little Friend Jing Yan, we wouldn’t have won this floating entrance spot in the first round of the Yellow Spring Cave contest.” Clan Chief Xin Si also looked at Inspector Ao Hong and said nonchalantly.

The things Inspector Ao Hong said earlier, Xin Si hadn’t forgotten. Naturally, he had to make up for them in words now. Weren’t you mocking our Xin Family for spending fifty billion Black Crystal Stones as a loss and questioning our sanity? What do you have to say now?

The allocation of Yellow Spring Cave’s spots is not complicated.

First, each of the Four Great Forces has one basic spot. After deducting four basic spots from nine total spots, there are five spots remaining. In the first round of the Points contest, the force with the highest Points wins one spot. After the second round, the two rounds combined with the highest Points wins one spot. After the third round, the top three with accumulated Points from all three rounds each win one spot.

Each force receives a minimum of one spot, which is the basic spot. At most, they can get four spots, including the basic spot and one in each of the top three rounds.

The current Xin Family has indeed secured two spots.

Clan Chief Xin Si couldn’t stop smiling. Without Jing Yan, the Xin Family wouldn’t even think about getting this spot in the first round. Equivalent to spending fifty billion Black Crystal Stones for one Yellow Spring Cave Advanced Entrance spot, this deal is unbelievably profitable. Not just fifty billion, even five hundred billion Black Crystal Stones for a single Yellow Spring Cave Advanced Entrance would be worth it for the Xin Family. Any of the Four Great Forces would likely do the same.

The entrance spot to the Yellow Spring Cave Advanced Entrance cannot simply be measured in Black Crystal Stones.

After surpassing Mystic Moon Trading House’s Points, the Xin Family’s Points did not stop and reached the four hundred-point threshold under many gazes.

The score in the first round is not only related to the contest for the first round spot but also to that of the second and third rounds. The more Points, the better. If the Xin Family can secure one thousand Points in the first round, they practically claim all four spots.

Inside the secret realm, Jing Yan is still fighting Ghost Pattern Beasts. The ones surrounding him are becoming fewer.

”The Xin Family’s Points have surpassed four hundred. On my own, I’ve secured over three hundred Points.”

”At this point in the first round of the Points contest, no one can say I haven’t contributed enough. So, it’s time to end it,” Jing Yan thought.

He could continue to kill inside the secret realm, although the continued mass killing of Ghost Pattern Beasts has greatly depleted his Divine Power. However, he can certainly wipe out this ninth wave without any problems; even with the appearance of over five hundred Ghost Pattern Beasts in the tenth wave, he’s confident he could kill many.

But he doesn’t need to go to such lengths.

After killing more than twenty Ghost Pattern Beasts, Jing Yan stopped and released the Ancient Tree Inheritance defense. In the blink of an eye, his illusion body was buried under the claws of Ghost Pattern Beasts.

Sitting cross-legged, Jing Yan opened his eyes, exhaled gently, and then stood up.

The final score of the Xin Family’s Yellow Springs Points in the first round stayed firm at four hundred thirty-three, which is significantly higher than Mystic Moon Trading House’s total.

”Little Friend Jing Yan, I truly don’t know how to thank you.” Seeing Jing Yan stand, Clan Chief Xin Si immediately walked over to him while speaking.

Other members of the Xin Family also rushed to thank Jing Yan.

”Clan Leader Xin, there’s no need for courtesy. You pay me to do the job.” Jing Yan waved his hand.

If the Xin Family hadn’t been willing to offer fifty billion Black Crystal Stones for hiring at the last moment, he might not have been able to show himself in the first round of the Points contest.

”Haha, Little Friend Jing Yan did exceptionally well, completely exceeding my expectations.” Clan Chief Xin Si was extremely enthusiastic and spoke warmly.

Yuantong Immortal Venerable also gave Jing Yan a deep look and then addressed the entire room: ”The first round of the Yellow Springs Points contest has ended, with the Xin Family securing the first place with four hundred thirty-three Points, earning one entrance spot for the Yellow Spring Cave Advanced Entrance.”
