Chapter 224: Chapter 224 Master’s Questioning_1

Master Baiyun always found it hard to believe that a Martial Vein Seventh Layer Peak Martial Master could earn more Military Achievement Points than a Martial Pulse Ninth Level Martial Master.

"Forget it, just keep reading."

He planned to compare the results to see if there was a problem with the Military Merit Treasure.

"Second place, Ming Tian, 350 Military Achievement Points!"

"Third place, Ling Yixue, 200 points, fourth place, Zuo Leng, 190 points..."

Wan 犇 read out the Military Achievement Points for the twelve disciples. Except for Ming Tian and Ling Yixue, none of the others had reached 200 points.

Yet, Ling Xiao had outscored Ming Tian by so many points, which was really abnormal.

Even if he discounted the 450 points for slaying the invisible assassin, that still left 610 points, nearly twice as much as Ming Tian.

The others were even less of a match.

"There must be a problem with the Military Merit Treasure, otherwise, this is impossible!"

The disciples of the Heavenly Ninja Academy, including Fei Yu, all stood up to question this.

On the contrary, the martial artists of the Hidden Dragon Camp were very calm; they had witnessed Ling Xiao’s performance. Without him, the war would have been lost early on, not even making it to the end.

Ming Tian just sneered at Ling Xiao, thinking that cheating was one thing, but forging so many Military Achievement Points—didn’t he know their master hated fraudulence the most?

"Ling Xiao, hand over your Military Merit Treasure," said Master Baiyun, his face dark as he looked at Ling Xiao.

"Yes!"

Ling Xiao, who had nothing to fear since he had acted uprightly and without cheating, wasn’t afraid of showing his Military Merit Treasure to Master Baiyun.

Moreover, he knew well that Master Baiyun was somewhat biased towards Zuo Leng and Ming Tian, but not to the point of being utterly unjust.

As it turned out, his thoughts were validated. After checking the Military Merit Treasure, Master Baiyun returned it to Ling Xiao and frowned. "There’s nothing wrong with the Military Merit Treasure, and I’ve checked the record too. Ling Xiao’s points are legitimate."

"Master, how can this be possible?"

Ming Tian stood up, unable to accept that this was the truth.

"What, you don’t even trust your teacher?" Master Baiyun frowned.

"The disciple wouldn’t dare."

"All right, the reason Ling Xiao got so many Military Achievement Points is primarily that he held off the wolf-shaped ferocious beast, rewarding him with 300 points directly. With the hidden assassin killed, that makes 750 points," explained Master Baiyun. Evidently, he wanted to avoid Ming Tian overthinking, so he took the time to explain further, "The other 310 points were earned from killing the enemy. His speed is extremely fast, and with the special effects of the Thirteen Swords of Shadow Transformation, his killing speed is much faster than the average person."

"Even so, it’s not possible!"

Ming Tian found it hard to believe.

"Correct, even so, it shouldn’t be possible," Master Baiyun nodded. "But this Ling Xiao has already mastered his techniques to perfection, something not even I can achieve. His strikes are fatal, aiming for vital parts with every hit. His efficiency is much higher than yours, but after all, it is merely a clever trick, so you don’t need to worry too much."

Clearly, although Master Baiyun believed in Ling Xiao’s Military Achievement Points, he was somewhat dissatisfied that Ling Xiao had devoted his energy to combat techniques.

However, unlike him, Ming Tian felt anger and resentment brewing in his heart.

Ling Xiao had not only killed his father in battle but also snatched the first place in Military Achievement Points, nearly tripling his own score. How could he be content with that?

He was a Martial Pulse Ninth Level Martial Artist and a true disciple of Master Baiyun.

Now, having lost to Ling Xiao in Military Achievement Points, he found it hard to accept.

The disciples of the Heavenly Ninja Academy all showed discontent.

The higher Ling Xiao’s Military Achievement Points, the more Ninja Clan and Green-eyed Clan warriors he had killed, which amounted to double the hatred.

As for the prodigies from the Hidden Dragon Camp, they were used to Ling Xiao’s surprising performances and showed approving smiles.

"All right, the rest may go to the Skill Transfer Hall to receive their rewards. Ming Tian, Zuo Leng, the two of you stay behind," said Master Baiyun. It was evident he had noticed something off with Ming Tian, so he intentionally kept his two most valued prodigies.

After Lin Ze, Wan Ben, Ling Xiao, and others left,

Master Baiyun spoke gently, "I know both of you are brooding over the military achievement points this time, but there’s absolutely no need. Ling Xiao’s combat skills are indeed superior, even surpassing your master, but that’s useless. In my view, among the twelve, only you two have the potential to enter Moon Hua Sect and advance to the Transcendent Realm!"

In his words, Master Baiyun was filled with pride.

In his life, the most prideful achievement was having taken on these two disciples.

Clearly, even if Ling Xiao performed well again, in his eyes, it was just a collection of clever tricks, not worth mentioning.

Hearing Master Baiyun’s words, Ming Tian and Zuo Leng both revealed smiles.

"Thank you, Master, for your favor!"

Ming Tian and Zuo Leng were extremely excited in their hearts.

So what if Ling Xiao got the first place in military achievement points, you are still not as good as us, right?

What’s the use of your superb combat skills? If you can’t advance to the Transcendent Realm, you’ll just be trampled under our feet for a lifetime.

...

Having left the True Spirit Hall, everyone headed straight for the Skill Transfer Hall.

Previously, military achievements could only be claimed at the Border Guarding General’s Mansion, but now being able to go to the even higher-class Skill Transfer Hall was certainly not a small advantage.

Though everyone had learned about the past of the Human Race, it was absolutely impossible to quell years of hatred overnight.

Therefore, the people from Hidden Dragon Camp and Heavenly Ninja Academy were still like fire and water.

Especially since this time Ling Xiao had overtaken Ming Tian and Zuo Leng, how could the people from Heavenly Ninja Academy stand it?

The two groups entered the Skill Transfer Hall one after the other, each calculating the rewards they wanted to claim.

At this moment, Zuo Leng and Ming Tian also arrived.

"Ling Xiao, you’re quite impressive, being able to kill a Ninth Stage Martial Artist while at the Martial Vein Seventh Layer Peak; it truly astounds me," said Ming Tian, his tone thick with hate and sarcasm.

"But I wonder if you have the qualifications to enter a hidden sect. Hehe, I actually hope you can get in. That way, we could have a fair competition."

"No problem," replied Ling Xiao nonchalantly. "I just hope Ming Tian brother won’t relax his guard. Maybe my cultivation will surpass you quite soon."

To be honest, Ming Tian and Zuo Leng indeed had extraordinary talents and amazing potential.

Additionally, with Master Baiyun’s full support, they had left him far behind long ago.

But the greater the challenge, the more excited he became.

If a person loses his targets, he will surely lack motivation.

"Hahaha, we’ll see about that," laughed Ming Tian heartily, as he and Zuo Leng went to choose their rewards.

Ling Xiao did not waste words. With over a thousand military achievement points, he could exchange for a lot of things,

including Martial Arts Secret Books, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and Divine Weapons, among other things.

But having too many military achievement points is a happy dilemma; he still needed to make some careful choices.

He felt no need to choose Martial Arts Secret Books for the time being.

For offense, there was the Snow Lotus Sword Technique.

For defense, the Heavenly Dragon Golden Body.

For body movement, the Cloud Dragon Divine Movement.

All of these were Transcendent Martial Arts.

As for Internal Cultivation Mind Techniques, he had the near-Transcendent Snow Lotus True Scripture, and in the Skill Transfer Hall, there was no upgraded version of it.

With these techniques, plus his Martial Soul and some secret methods, he was absolutely well-equipped.

After joining Moon Hua Sect in three months’ time, perhaps there would be better choices, so it would be best to use his military achievement points to exchange for Spiritual Elixirs that could enhance his cultivation level.
