Chapter 2, it's late again, sorry!
——————————
Four hundred and seventy-seven points!
Lu Ping couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he remembered that he had glanced at the shadow stone before entering the Immortal Grotto-Heaven, and his combat merit points at that time were only a little more than four hundred points, but he didn't expect that in just a few hours, his combat merit would increase by more than forty points again.
In fact, even Lu Ping himself did not realize that when he killed an Asura alone in the Mara army, his cultivation strength was like an epiphany, and there was another quantitative improvement.
It's just that this increase in strength stems from the foundation he has accumulated before, and under this subtle influence, he has not yet realized how terrifying his strength has become.
This was also the reason why he was extremely surprised when he saw that he was looking at the mountains on the military merit standings, but at this time, Yin Tianchu and the other three were already surprised.
The second place after Lu Ping was still Qin Shijun of the Crystal Palace, but his military exploits were only three hundred and fifty-nine points, a full one hundred and eighteen points different from Lu Ping's military exploits!
What is the concept of 118 points?
In exchange for the number of Mara, that is to say, Qin Shijun has to kill eleven Jade Shura, plus a blood Shura and a blood demon to catch up; Even if it was replaced by a jade demon, it would require seven jade demons, plus one jade asura and one blood asura.
With the Mara army scattered and fled, and the high-level Mara was also killed and wounded, even if Qin Shijun was the first heir of the Crystal Palace, it was in vain!
No wonder the monks of the True Spirit Sect were smiling when they saw Lu Ping's military merit points, this gap that could simply be described as "domineering side leakage" was a foregone conclusion when the Mara army was completely annihilated.
This battle merit list can be said to reflect not only the achievements of the cultivation of the third generation of disciples of each sect, but also can be regarded as an advance rehearsal of the trend of each sect in the next three to five hundred years.
However, the competition for the military merit list, which should have been the most important and fierce, was born because of Lu Ping's sudden birth, so everyone could only compete for the second place.
In fact, after going out to Lu Ping, the competition for the military merit points in the middle of the Fa Xiang was still extremely fierce.
After Qin Shijun, Yuwen Feixiang's combat merit points reached three hundred and fifty points, ranking third with a difference of nine points, this gap was the gap between the three-headed blood asura, which was not safe for Qin Shijun.
But in fact, the difference of nine points can be regarded as a big gap among the top fifteen monks, and the gap between Fan Mingjie and Yuwen Feixiang, who ranked fourth, was only seven points, reaching three hundred and forty-three points.
Fan Mingjie was followed by Nangong Xiaojian of the Sky Pavilion, ranking fifth with 339 points.
Nangong Xiaojian, as the Southern Pavilion Master among the Eight Directions Pavilion Masters of the Chongtian Pavilion, is said to be the second largest existence after the Oriental Pavilion Master among the three generations of the Chongtian Pavilion.
The sixth ranked person was a little unexpected, Wei Zhen, the one-yuan lord of the Nine Mysterious Tower, ranked behind Nangong Xiaojian with three hundred and twenty-seven points.
The most important of the three generations of the Nine Mysterious Tower, Wei Zhen's sixth place was not an unexpected thing, if it were ordinary, his status in the cultivation world would be comparable to that of Qin Shijun of the Crystal Palace and Fan Mingjie of the Ziyang Palace.
But don't forget, this time, in order to compete for the battle merit list, several important direct monks of each faction are surrounded by the help of other monks of their own sect, and when encircling and suppressing Mara, most of the monks who are helpers will hand over the final blow of Mara, who can obtain military merits, to the direct disciples who compete for the battle merit list.
Even sometimes the seniors of the sect would help, just like the asura that Qin Shijun killed was the great monk of the ancestor Crystal Palace, who was beaten and seriously injured; the first asura that Lu Ping killed was also because Ancestor Lin Yu attacked and severely injured him in advance, etc.
However, all this support was not for Wei Zhen: as the first descendant of the Nine Mysterious Tower besieged by the Mara army, except for him who sneaked out of the Nine Mysterious Tower with Zhu Bajie, thus having the qualifications to compete with the monks of various factions, none of the other Nine Mysterious Tower monks had the qualifications to compete for the battle merit list.
Moreover, Zhu Bajie was seriously injured because she went deep into the Mara army alone to slay the Heavenly Demon, and Wei Zhen could not get proud help from the seniors of this sect, but despite this, he still relied on his own strength to single-handedly rush all the way to the sixth place in the battle merit list, and his cultivation strength was already undoubted.
Cao Jianping, the chief descendant of the Tianxuan Sect, had slipped a little in rank, and now he was ranked seventh, and his combat merit points were only three hundred and thirteen points, a gap of fourteen points from the sixth place, and the difference in points among the top monks was already quite small.
After the first and second descendants of the Five Elements Sect, Tu Gao Shan and Mu Changsheng, fell into the hands of Lu Ping, the strength of the Five Elements Sect's direct lineage monks dropped a lot.
It is said that this time the new Earth Line Juzi of the Five Elements Sect fell again in the battle with the Mara army, which can really be regarded as a misfortune.
Lingyun Valley, as one of the six holy places, the only direct disciple who entered the top ten can only rank ninth, and the combat merit points are only three hundred and seven points, this result is really not very beautiful, but Zhang Zhifei occupies a blue light among the seven rainbows of Lingyun Valley, and the fire of the Five Elements Sect can generally only be regarded as the third direct inheritance, compared with the other direct inheritances of the six holy lands that are not suitable for the first and second direct inheritances, so this ranking is reasonable.
Although Lingyun Valley also sent the power of the sect to assist the Nine Mysterious Tower this time, it was only because of the containment of the demon forces of Endless Mountain that Lingyun Valley was never able to make a strong rescue to the Nine Mysterious Tower, although a Pure Yang was also sent, but the number of other great cultivators and monks in the early and middle stages of the Dharma Phase was not large, among the other five holy places, Ling Yun Valley had the least effort this time.
In fact, there is another direct descendant in Lingyun Valley who is also on the list, this person is Lingyun Valley's first direct heir, Ziguang Lu Zhichuan, but when he came, he was when the thirteen Pure Yang conspired to attack the Mara army was about to reach the final general attack, and he had already missed most of the monks' accumulation in the early stage.
However, even so, in the final battle to eliminate Mara, this Lingyun Valley's first heir swept more than two hundred points in a few days, and climbed to the list of military achievements in the middle of the Dharma Phase in one fell swoop.
The tenth place is Xie Tianyang, with 300 points of combat merit.
After the camp of Ziyang Palace was breached, Xie Tianyang's combat merit points declined all the way due to injury, and by the time he returned, his ranking had almost slipped to twentieth.
However, in the last battle of these few days, Xie Tianyang also caught up, and his combat merit points soared all the way, and finally entered the top ten, and Ziyang Palace also became the only existence among the six holy places with two disciples entering the top ten.
Ranked eleventh is Yuwen Ke, I have to say that the Yuwen family's thunder magic power has an innate advantage over Mara, although he did not keep the top ten ranking in the end, but the 291 points of military exploits are enough to show the pivotal position of the Yuwen family in the disaster of Mara.
Yuwen Ke appeared after a fresh face, this person was called Liang Jianfei, ranked twelfth with 280 points of military merit, this person had never appeared in the top twenty of the military merit list before, but this time after the final battle, he entered the top fifteen in one fell swoop, which can be regarded as a dark horse.
However, after seeing that this person was born in the East China Sea Splitting Heaven Sword Sect, it is said that he was deeply valued by Xiao Baiyu, and even had already obtained the inheritance of Xiao Baiyu's Heaven-Opening Swordsmanship, and was the leader among the three generations of sword cultivators of the Heaven-Splitting Sword Sect, this dark horse seemed to be taken for granted in the eyes of everyone.
After this person, Sima Chong ranked 13th with 275 points, and Shui Zhirou ranked 14th, with 272 points; Sangyu, on the other hand, is in 15th place with a difference of six points.
Most of them were also acquaintances from the sixteenth to the twentieth, namely Su Jin from Ziyang Palace, Cheng Shizhuang from Crystal Palace, Yu Ziqing from Charm Pavilion, Yuwen Thunder from the Yuwen family, and Xiahou Wushang from Tianxuan Sect.
The difference in military achievements between these people was not too big, and by the time Xiahou Wushang, who was ranked twentieth, still had two hundred and fifty-two points.
However, starting from the twenty-first place, there was indeed an obvious watershed between the monks in the middle of the Dharma phase, and the twenty-first ranked was a direct disciple from the Liuyun Pavilion, a large sect in Middle-earth, his military exploits were only two hundred and twenty-six points, and the gap with Xiahou Wushang, who was ranked twentieth, reached twenty-six points, which was not an easy gap to make up.
Lu Ping looked down again and found that most of the monks on the list after that were direct monks from large sects in China and overseas, including the Chanyue Chanxiang sisters of the Tianyue Sect, and Yin Tianchu also ranked thirty-six with one hundred and eighty-three points, becoming one of the only two mid-stage monks of the True Spirit Sect to enter the Seventh Patriarch Taoist altar.
It is more regrettable that Qing Hu, her combat merit points reached 138 points, and at this time there was still a gap of thirteen points from the fiftieth place in the military merit list and did not make it to the military merit list.
However, as a medium-sized sect, it is enough to have two of the three generations of disciples on the list of military achievements in the middle of the Dharma phase, and many large sects with great prestige in the cultivation world can only be on the list at most two direct monks this time, not to mention the existence of the True Spirit Sect and Lu Ping, who dominates the mid-stage battle merit list!
This time in the battle to encircle and suppress the Nine Mysterious Tower Mara, the True Spirit Sect can be regarded as one of the most dazzling sects, but in fact, the True Spirit Sect's gains are not limited to these!
