Chapter 1048: Tabulating The Results (1/2)
“18, 165 beads!” The Elephant Genesis Sect Chief Pan Jue threw his head back in laughter hearing Zhao Wuya’s answer, then his voice rang in the air. “Good, good, good! When we return to the sect, I and the Ancestor will heavily reward you!”
18, 165!
In Pan Jue’s eyes, with this amount of Crimson Flame Beads, Zhao Wuya was undoubtedly the first place winner of this joint training.
In all previous joint trainings, ten thousand Crimson Flame Beads were enough to secure the first place. Compare that to Zhao Wuya’s current result and it was granted that the first place belonged to him!
Pan Jue didn’t even bother to disguise his happy laughter, therefore, the surrounding disciples as well as the other two sects’ disciples and masters heard his words clearly.
The Great Whale Sect Chief Wuyue’s face turned sullen and ugly. His gaze was fixed on Zhao Wuya’s body, flickering with thick killing intent. Although he was unable to confirm that his nephew Wang Dafeng and Fan Yuan had been killed by Zhao Wuya, he subconsciously believed the killer to be none other than this Zhao Wuya.
Of course, the Barbarian God Sect Chief Gu Ling did look that happy either.
“Sect Chief, Huang Xiaolong is out!” Right at this time, a Grand Elder reminded Gu Ling, shifting his attention.
Gu Ling’s gaze swept over the crowd, locating Huang Xiaolong among the many disciples. Only then did his expression turn slightly better. In this term’s joint training, he was concerned about the Barbarian God Sect’s performance, and at the same time he was also worried about Huang Xiaolong’s safety. Now he saw Huang Xiaolong returning safely from the Ice Hail Ruins, having escaped the Great Whale Sect and Elephant Genesis Sect’s disciples pursuit. This was truly great luck!
Gu Ling watched him approach and salute before he asked Huang Xiaolong about the situation and the events that took place inside the Ice Hail Ruins. At the end, he paused for a moment before asking about his result, “The amount of Crimson Flame Beads you collected, are there at least five thousand?”
Following the past results, five thousand Crimson Flame Beads were enough to enter the top ten.
“Five thousand?” Huang Xiaolong looked dazedly at the nervous Gu Ling for a moment, then nodded, “Yes.”
Hearing Huang Xiaolong’s affirmative answer, a trace of joy rose to Gu Ling’s face. Inwardly, his tense nerves relaxed. The other Grand Elders standing close to him also revealed a smile.
Only Cao Yang, Zhuang Xuan, and Huang Junfei wore ugly expressions, especially Cao Yang. Before the joint training started, he had gleefully assumed that Huang Xiaolong was dead for sure once he entered the Ice Hail Ruins, but contrary to his expectation, Huang Xiaolong walked out alive! Not only did he not die, the punk had actually collected at least five thousand Crimson Flame Beads!
Thinking about how Huang Xiaolong would be taking one of the top ten spots, granting him the right to enter the Primordial Celestial Shrine to comprehend the ancestor heritage tablets within, anger burned in his chest.
‘Those useless wastes from Elephant Genesis Sect and Great Whale Sect!’ Tens of thousands of disciples had been hunting Huang Xiaolong, yet they couldn’t kill one measly inner disciple!
While Cao Yang was fuming in anger, Gu Ling was asking the other disciples about their results, but to his dismay, only three Barbarian God Sect disciple managed to collect at least five thousand Crimson Flame Beads, including Huang Xiaolong!
He felt extremely disappointed with the result.
“Alright now, disciples with five thousand Crimson Flame Beads and above, please come forward for the tabulation and ranking.” At this time, the Elephant Genesis Sect Chief Pan Jue announced.
The three sects took turns leading each term’s joint training, and this time it was the Elephant Genesis Sect's turn.
At Pan Jue’s announcement, all the three sects’ disciples who managed to collect at least five thousand Crimson Flame Beads flew out, gathering in front of him.
However, counting Huang Xiaolong, there were only twelve disciples from the three sects with that amount of beads.
Three disciples from the Barbarian God Sect, four from the Great Whale Sect, and five disciples from the Elephant Genesis Sect!
Seeing this difference, Gu Ling and the Barbarian God Sect Grand Elders’ expressions darkened. Cao Yang and Huang Junfei, on the other hand, were secretly rejoicing, conversing through sound transmission, “Really unexpected ah, there’s actually twelve disciples from the three sects who managed to gather at least five thousand Crimson Flame Beads! It seems Huang Xiaolong may not make it into the top ten!”
“That’s right, if that kid is squeezed out from the top ten, he won’t be able to enter the Primordial Celestial Shrine.” Zhuang Xuan’s voice interjected into the conversation.
On the other side, Pan Jue had the five Elephant Genesis Sect disciples take out all the Crimson Flame Beads they obtained.
The results were as such, Zhao Wuya ranked first with eighteen thousand one hundred and sixty-five beads, while two of the other four collected over eleven thousand beads; the third disciple had over seven thousand, while the fourth disciple had around six thousand and five hundred Crimson Flame Beads.
Watching the results of the five Elephant Genesis Sect disciples, Cao Yang, Zhuang Xuan, and Huang Junfei were blooming inside. The better the Elephant Genesis Sect and Great Whale Sect disciples’ results were, the higher the chances of Huang Xiaolong being squeezed out of the top ten became.
