The Demon God Emperor
Ch. 96 - Guard of the Martial Arts Hall, Elder Zhen Meng
A forty-two-meter high stone constitution point monument was erected in the center of the hall. The monument was a record of accumulated contribution points from every disciple and elder of the sect and it would be continuously updated every day, month even within a year.
The first of the rankings on the list of ith monuments was naturally the Ghost Sect Master Iblia. He had accumulated 9.6 million contribution points and with a few more numbers would reach 10 million points.
The second list of names in this rank was one of the Four Great Elders, his name was Lin Gu. He had left the Sect decades ago, it was unknown if he was still alive until now. However, the accumulation of his contribution points would continue to randomly increase over these decades.
Each increase in Lin Gu's points was over ten thousand points in a few decades. The main factor to gain over ten thousand points was to kill a Gold Realm expert even an expert stronger than him.
When he left the sect, his accumulated points were only 720,000 but it had now increased to 8.4 million points. No one knew how many cultivators he had killed. Most importantly, his whereabouts are still unknown to date.
Many suspected that Lin Gu had become a Soul Realm realm expert after the past eighty years
The third ranked list was Master Qing Shan, Demon Elder Han, The accumulation of his contribution points was 6.8 million loin. Most of these contribution points were earned slaughtering his enemies and making pills.
The next rank up to the top twenty was almost occupied by the sect elders.
The younger disciple who had the highest contribution points was Yan Zhuiyun. He was an outsider youth perishing among the younger generations with other overseas talents perishing. He had broken through to the middle-stage Harmonious Spirit realm at the age of thirty and had become an elder.
However, his contribution was not very high, only 190,000 points, which was ranked forty-five.
As for the lazy Elder Zhen Meng, he would only earn a hundred contribution points for guarding the Martial Arts Hall every month. He had only accumulated 240,000 contribution points over two hundred years and was ranked number forty-one right now.
Today is the final test for both prospective new students.
"Aiii... Yahhh... Not knowing if any of those new disciples could reach a hundred contribution points in a month. Hehe Actually, obtaining a hundred contribution points was already too difficult for them in just a month. A few hundred years ago, when I joined this sect, I only killed seven Vena Opening realm ghosts and obtained two thousand four hundred kilograms of herbal potions. I only managed to earn fifteen contribution points. Even the most intelligent disciple, Yan Zhuiyun of the younger generation of this sect had also only obtained a hundred and seventy points in his second examination at that time .."
He lay on his wobble chair while his eyes swept over the contribution rank monument that had thousands of names listed on it.
There were tens of thousands of Vein Opening level disciples in the sect and the new disciples who had just joined would start from zero contribution points. Automatically, they are at the bottom of the ranking list on the monument.
"Haha.... Still on five points? The second stage of the exam has been started for two hours. This group of brats was undeniable that they were all extremely weak. They couldn't even kill those early stage ghosts? Uhukkk... Uhukkc... Uhukkk.. Wait, this?!"
While Elder Zhen was tasting his favorite tea, he was suddenly shocked by the latest update on the contribution rankings in the middle of the hall and gulped down the rest of his tea, almost swallowing the entire cup.
He was surprised to see nine contribution points on behalf of Li Zhi.
"Nine contribution points in just two hours? This brat has killed four Vena Opening realm ghosts? How is this possible?"
His eyes then moved to the top of the list. He was once again startled by a disciple named Lu Zi.
"This brat's coin suddenly increased by ten. The ten contribution points would require him to kill at least the ghost of the middle stage vein gate. Was this disciple, Lu Zi, really capable of killing the ghost of that realm? He must be a genius. I was afraid that he was more genius than Yan Zhuiyun back then..!
Elder Zhen suddenly stood up. He realized that he needed to report this to the superiors, he had another task besides guarding the hall, which was to select a new disciple with high contribution points in a short period of time. These disciples would obviously possess extraordinary talents worthy of nurturing.
This time, what he saw again made his breathing short. He could feel that his heart was going to come out of his mouth.
It was a prospective disciple named Qing Shan. The growth of his contribution points is huge which has reached 754 points.
"Whataa.... This boy had accumulated 754 points in just two hours. What was he doing in the Demon Forest? He is truly a terrible student! His name is Qing, Qing Shan! I have to report this to the Sect master.!"
Elder Zhen had never really been interested in anything other than the work related to the Constitution Coins during his life so he naturally did not know about Qing Shan's true identity. Even if he knew it, he assumed it was just a young man who had a strong background instead of talent.
Actually, this is just the beginning. It was the absolute mistake of the Demon Ghost Sect for having let Qing Shan enter the Demon Forest to take the second stage exam as a potential new disciple. The monument stone of the contribution points ranking list will explode with the next Qing Shan point.
...
The stench of corpses and ghosts wafted within the gripping and gloomy Demon Forest. While walking inside this forest, whoever it was would definitely be pounced on by the ghost that let out a howl at any moment
Ssh.... !
Ummmmmmm.....!
Eekeekkeee....!
Some hissing sounds were heard from within or somewhere around the forest. There were already a number of disciples killed within these two hours. The ghosts in the first region lacked intelligence and feelings. They were so fiercely attacking those lower-class cultivators as if they were not afraid of death.
Somewhere in the first forest region, there was a girl in green clothes tripping on the trees while running to save herself. He was merely a Vein Opening Realm cultivator the initial stage of the first gate. His strength and Qi were insignificant to deal with the three phantom realm Vein Opener gates to the Five or intermediate stages that were chasing him.
The face of the girl was still very young, beautiful face, oval lips and bright face. Frightened, his feet bruised a lot after losing his embroidered shoes running through the forest bush covered with thorns and hard and sharp tree roots in the path he passed
As he continued to run, he would meet some other disciples but none of them could and were willing to save him. No one would risk their lives by getting themselves in and getting into trouble for their lives.
Now she loses her hope of living as the ghosts get closer and closer. His back hit an old tree and he fell, sitting on the ground.
The ghosts were emitting green light from their ferocious eyes, and they laughed and let out ghostly cries.
"Whoever is it. T-Tlong...Aku. I'll do anything to pay you..!"
He shouted in a low-pitched stuttering voice, but no one around responded. Then, he simply closed his eyes in disappointment.
The most surprising thing finally happened. It was not a scene where the girl was ripped apart by a ghost, it was a ghostly wail that immediately sounded after an icy cold air blew around her.
The girl had lost her wits at this moment. When he opened his eyes and saw a young man with a simple and calm demeanor whose hand was holding a sword. Then the ghosts were immediately burned by the slash of his sword and disappeared.
