Four hundred and seventy-seven points!
Lu Ping could not help but be stunned. He remembered that before he entered the Longevity Cave, he had taken a look at the Photographic Stone. At that time, his battle points had only been slightly more than four hundred points. He did not expect that in just a few hours, his battle points would increase by more than forty points.
In fact, even Lu Ping himself did not realize that when he had single-handedly killed an Asura in the midst of Mara's army, his level of practice and strength had once again increased in quantity, as if he had had a sudden epiphany.
It was just that this increase in strength came from the foundation that he had accumulated in the past. Under this kind of subtle influence, he had not realized how terrifying his own strength had become.
This was also why he was so surprised when he saw that his battle points were so small compared to others. At this time, Yin Tianchu and the other two were already used to it.
The second place behind Lu Ping was still Qin Shijun of the Crystal Palace, but his battle points were only 359 points. There was a difference of 118 points between his battle points and Lu Ping's!
What kind of concept was 118 points?
In terms of Mara's numbers, it meant that Qin Shijun would have to kill eleven Jade Shuras, one Blood Shura, and one Blood Demon before he could catch up. Even if it were Jade Demons, he would have to kill seven Jade Demons, one Jade Shura, and one Blood Shura.
In a situation where Mara's army had scattered in all directions and the high-level Mara had died, even if Qin Shijun was the first heir of the Crystal Palace, there was nothing he could do!
It was no wonder that when the Zhenling adepts saw Lu Ping's battle points, they were all smiles. This kind of gap could be described as "domineering". In a situation where Mara's army had been wiped out, it was almost certain that Lu Ping would be the first in battle points.
The battle points ranking of the mid Dharma adepts could be said to be a direct display of the strength of the third generation adepts in the entire human world of practice. This battle points ranking could be said to reflect the achievements of the third generation adepts of each sect, and could also be seen as a preview of the future of each sect for the next three to five hundred years.
However, the battle points ranking, which was supposed to be the most important and the most intense, had caused everyone to fight for second place because of Lu Ping's sudden appearance.
In fact, apart from Lu Ping, the battle points ranking of the mid Dharma adepts was still extremely intense.
After Qin Shijun, Yuwen Feixiang's battle points had reached 350 points, which was a difference of nine points. This was a difference of three Blood Shuras, and was not enough for Qin Shijun.
Truth be told, however, a difference of nine points was quite a considerable difference among the top 15 cultivators. Even the fourth-ranked Fan Mingjie from Purple Sun Palace was only seven points away from Yuwen Feixiang, a total of 343 points.
After Fan Mingjie was Nangong Xiaojian of the Skyward Pavilion, who was ranked fifth with 339 points.
Nangong Xiaojian was the Southern Pavilion Head of the Skyward Pavilion's Eight Pavilion Heads, and it was said that among the third generation of the Skyward Pavilion, he was second only to the Eastern Pavilion Head.
The person in sixth place was somewhat unexpected. The Nine Profound Tower's First Origin Hall Lord Wei Zhen was ranked behind Nangong Xiaojian with 327 points.
As the number one disciple of the Nine Xuan Tower's third generation, it was not surprising that Wei Zhen was ranked sixth. Under normal circumstances, his position in the world of practice would be on par with Qin Shijun of the Crystal Palace and Fan Mingjie of the Purple Sun Palace. Not only was being ranked sixth unremarkable, but it was also just an ordinary result.
However, do not forget that for the sake of competing for the Military Merit List, several important heir disciples from the various sects would be assisted by other cultivators from their respective sects. When they were besieging Mo Luo, most of the assisting cultivators would hand over Mo Luo's final attack that would earn them military merit points to the heir disciples competing for the Military Merit List.
Sometimes, the seniors of the sect would even lend a helping hand. For example, the Asura that Qin Shijun had killed had been seriously injured by his seniors from the Crystal Palace, and the first Asura that Lu Ping had killed had been seriously injured by Lin Yu Laozu's sneak attack.
However, all this support was of no use to Wei Zhen. As the number one direct disciple of the Nine Mystical Tower who was besieged by the Evil Luo Army, other than him who had snuck out of the Nine Mystical Tower with Eighth Sister Zhu, and thus had the qualifications to compete with the cultivators of the other sects for the list of war merits, none of the other cultivators of the Nine Mystical Tower had the qualifications to compete for the list of war merits.
Moreover, Eighth Sister Zhu had been seriously injured because she had infiltrated Mara's army alone to kill a Sky Demon, so Wei Zhen was unable to receive any help from the seniors of the sect. Even so, he had relied on his own strength to single-handedly charge all the way to the sixth place on the battle points ranking. There was no need to doubt his cultivation and strength.
On the other hand, Cao Jianping, the heir apparent of Heavenly Enigma Sect, had slipped down the rankings somewhat. At present, she was ranked 7th. Her battle achievement points were only 313. There was a gap of 14 points between her and the 6th place. Compared to the top few cultivators, this gap was quite considerable.
Huo Wuliang of the Wuxing School was ranked eighth with 310 points, and could surpass the number one disciple of the Tianxuan Sect at any time. After the first and second disciples of the Wuxing School, Tu Gaoshan and Mu Changsheng, fell in the hands of Lu Ping, the strength of the disciples of the Wuxing School had declined a lot.
It was said that this time, Wuxing School's new disciple of the Earth Element Juzi had fallen in battle with Mara's army again. It could be said that misfortune never comes alone.
As one of the six holy lands, the Lingyun Valley was the only disciple to enter the top ten. He was only ranked ninth, and his battle points were only 307. This was not a very good result, but Zhang Zhifei had occupied a green light among the seven rainbow lights of the Lingyun Valley. Like Wuxing School's Huo Wuliang, he could only be considered the third disciple. Compared to the other disciples of the six holy lands who were either first or second, he was undoubtedly a notch higher. Therefore, this ranking was justifiable.
Although the Lingyun Valley had also sent the sect's forces to help the Nine Mystical Tower this time, because of the demonic powers of the Endless Mountain, the Lingyun Valley was unable to do much to help the Nine Mystical Tower. Although they had also sent a Pure Yang, there were not many Great Adepts and early and mid Dharma adepts. Among the other five holy lands, the Lingyun Valley had contributed the least.
In fact, there was another disciple of the Lingyun Valley who was also on the list. This person was the first disciple of the Lingyun Valley, Purple Light Lu Zhichuan. However, when he had arrived, he had missed the majority of the adepts' accumulation in the early stages when the 13 Pure Yang adepts were plotting against Mara's army.
Even so, in the final battle to exterminate Mara, this first disciple of the Lingyun Valley had gained more than 200 battle points in a few days' time. In one fell swoop, he had made it onto the list of mid Dharma adepts. Although his ranking was low, it was a testament to his strength as the first disciple of the Lingyun Valley!
In tenth place was Xie Tianyang, with a total of 300 battle points.
After the Ziyang Palace's camp had been breached, Xie Tianyang's battle points had dropped due to his injuries. By the time he had returned, his ranking had almost fallen to the 20th place.
However, in the final battle over the past few days, Xie Tianyang had also worked hard to catch up. His battle points had soared, and he had finally made it to the top 10. The Ziyang Palace had also become the only place among the six holy lands to have two disciples who had made it to the top 10.
In eleventh place was Yuwen Ke. It had to be said that the Yuwen clan's lightning magic had an innate advantage over Mara. Although he did not manage to maintain his position in the top 10, his 291 battle points was enough to show that the Yuwen clan had played an important role in Mara's calamity.
After Yuwen Ke was a fresh face. This person was called Liang Jianfei, and he was ranked twelfth with 280 battle points. This person had never appeared in the top 20 before, but after the final battle, he had made it to the top 15. He could be considered a dark horse.
However, this person was born in the East Sea's Skyrend. It was said that he was highly regarded by Xiao Baiyu, and had even received the inheritance of Xiao Baiyu's Heaven Opening Sword Technique. He was an outstanding talent among the three generations of sword cultivators in Skyrend. This dark horse seemed to be reasonable to everyone.
After this person, Sima Chongfeng was ranked thirteenth with 275 battle points, and Shui Zhirou was ranked fourteenth with 272 battle points. Sang Yu was ranked fifteenth with a difference of six points.
From the sixteenth to the twentieth place, most of them were familiar faces. They were Su Jin of the Ziyang Palace, Cheng Shizhuang of the Crystal Palace, Yu Ziqing of the Charm Pavilion, Yuwen Jinglei of the Yuwen clan, and Xiahou Wushang of the Tianxuan Sect.
The difference in battle points between these people was not too big. When it came to Xiahou Wushang, who was ranked twentieth, he still had 252 battle points.
However, from the twenty-first place onwards, there was a clear dividing line between the mid Dharma adepts. The twenty-first place was a disciple from the Flowing Cloud Pavilion, a large sect in Central Plains. His battle points were only 226, which was 26 points away from Xiahou Wushang, who was ranked twentieth. This was not a gap that could be easily made up for.
Lu Ping looked further down the list and realized that most of the people on the list were direct adepts from the large sects in Central Plains and overseas. Among them were Chan Yue and Chan Xiang from the Tianyue Sect. Yin Tianchu was ranked thirty-sixth with 183 points, becoming one of the only two mid Dharma adepts in Zhenling to enter the Seventh Patriarch's altar.
What was more regrettable was Qing Hu, whose battle points had reached 138. At this time, she was still 13 points away from the fiftieth place on the list.
However, as a medium-sized sect, it was already impressive enough for two of their third generation disciples to be on the list of mid Dharma adepts. Many famous sects in the cultivation world only had two direct adepts on the list, not to mention that Zhenling had Lu Ping, who dominated the mid Dharma adepts on the list!
In this operation to encircle Mara from the Nine Xuan Tower, Zhenling could be considered one of the most outstanding sects. However, in reality, Zhenling's gains were far more than that!
