The fifth day of the ultimate trial was also the most intense period for the participants. At the moment, the overall ranking had fully revealed the different echelons. Theoretically speaking, as long as one could make it into the top 1000 of the first district of the Subcontinent continent, one would be guaranteed a spot in the Chronometer Tower Consortium.
The overall ranking also showed this.
The top 1000 had a huge lead in terms of points. Around the 1500th place, the points began to decrease.
The 1500th place had exactly 30,000 points. After that, there were points for the 3000, 5000, and so on.
Based on the current situation, the top 3000 all had a chance to compete for a spot in the Chronometer Tower Consortium. Nobody wanted to give up that easily. Since the number of species in the hunting area had decreased sharply, many participants were jumping around the hunting area, ready to enter the final stage.
At the moment, Mu Fan was worried. His points were fixed at 76,000. He was still 8,000 points away from the 84,000 points of the second place, not to mention that the first place already had 90,000 points.
Besides, the fourth place was still at 53,000 points. It was basically impossible for the fourth place to surpass him.
This result was already good enough. If he could last until the end of the ultimate trial on the seventh day, he would be in the Top 3. In the past, the Top 3 of the ultimate trial had always been the key students of the Chronometer Tower Consortium.
His father, Mu Li, had paid such a high price. It was worth it.
But he was still angry, unconvinced, and aggrieved.
Before coming here, he had deliberately reached the third level of Magic Apprentice. He had three magic spells and his physical fitness was top-notch. He also had a lot of resources and equipment to support him. Under such conditions, his only goal was to be the first place.
But he was only in the third place?
He was still 14,000 points away from the first place!
Could it be that that person was constantly killing hunting species day and night? Didn't he need to rest? Didn't he need to investigate?
Mu Fan couldn't figure out why there were two participants like that out of the blue. Names of all the people who could be considered opponents popped up in his mind one by one, but he couldn't find a match.
"Brother Mu Fan, what do you think of our proposal?" A deep voice sounded in his ear.
Mu Fan pulled himself out of his thoughts. At the moment, he was sitting with a group of young men and women. Those people were either rich or respectable. They all had extraordinary backgrounds. Even the worst of them was ranked 3245th.
But such a group of young geniuses were frowning at this moment, and all of them looked at him while waiting for him to make a decision.
Mu Fan cleared his throat and looked at Bai Haiting who was sitting across from him. This young master from the sixth branch family of the Bai Family was the same as these people. His face was ashen and indescribable anger appeared on his face.
Last night, someone had attacked the Bai camp and killed Bai Yunfei.
Everyone knew who the culprit was.
"Li Xiang …" Mu Fan was upset when the name was mentioned again. It was Li Xiang again. Most of the rich and powerful families gathered here could have done anything they wanted in District One of the Subcontinent. But at the moment, they were having a headache because of a commoner. "Haiting, are you sure he did it?"
"I'm 90% sure. Bai Yunfei's heart had been pierced through with a single strike. His strength was indeed lacking, and everyone present could do the same. However, the other party had completely disregarded the Bai Clan and Bai Yunfei's status and directly killed him. Too few people would dare to do such a thing. At the moment, he is the most suspicious person. "Bai Haiting was so angry that he crushed the handle of his chair!
Baimiya of the Bai Family was always on the move. There was also the news that she had obtained a Primordial crystal. On the other hand, Bai Haiting was the leader of the trial takers of the Bai Family, but he kept getting into trouble. Most of the people present knew about the conflict between him and Baimiya. Seeing how angry he was, they all stayed away from him in case they were caught in the crossfire.
"Is it possible that someone is framing him? Is someone trying to kill him with a borrowed knife? I heard that Bai Yunfei and his fiancée are not on good terms. That lady named Fei was almost shot by Bai Yunfei in the last operation. " Mu Fan had an excellent memory. He had been the leader of that operation and the one who had injured Ming Xu and made the final decision.
However, Ming Xu's combat strength had still exceeded his expectations. Even without opening the Primordial Balance, Bai Yunfei was still a very difficult opponent to deal with. During the last operation, Bai Yunfei had shot at Fei Yujing. Basically, every trial taker with a bit of combat strength had seen it. However, Ming Xu had suddenly turned around and blocked the shot, allowing her to survive.
This matter was very strange. Most of the trial takers didn't mention it out of respect for the Bai Family, but in their hearts, they were secretly on guard against the trial takers of the Bai Family.
This was especially true of the trial takers of Keihoku University. They had been abandoned because the Bai Family had cooperated with He Yi. Now that they had seen the Bai Family plot against one of their own, they all distanced themselves from the Bai Family.
At this time, Bai Haiting was also in an awkward situation. If it weren't for the fact that there was an even stronger Mu Fan present, these children of aristocratic families wouldn't be willing to sit at the same table with him.
This was also the reason why Bai Haiting was so angry. Even a fool knew that if this matter wasn't handled properly, he, as one of the leaders, would be impeached when he returned to his family.
"Little Yu wouldn't do this. If she really wanted to do this kind of thing, she could have chosen a more appropriate time. Why would she do it at such a suspicious time? I'm more inclined to believe that it was Li Xiang's revenge. He, Dong Ling, and Ming Xu were all Polar night trainees in the same group. It's said that they were in the same life-or-death battle group. Maybe they had some feelings for each other. It was also after she was seriously injured that those hunting groups were wiped out one by one.
"In short, whether he did it or not, this grudge has been formed. Who knows if he'll go crazy and attack us? The Yakumo family, the He family, and the Bai family. In his eyes, the aristocratic families and the Five Great Thrones aren't much. Are you waiting for him to come knocking on your door, or are you going to take the initiative to find him? " A tall young man said in a muffled voice. His voice was like a thunderclap, causing the others to feel a sharp pain in their eardrums.
This was a trial taker from the Yue family. He was a student of a player, and his background was not ordinary.
In the eyes of these trial takers, Li Xiang, who had been born a commoner, was nothing, even if he had the halo of Polar night to support him. They were all proud sons and daughters of heaven, and their families had focused on nurturing them. The education they had gone through was far beyond what normal families could imagine. They were the true heirs of their families who were doted on by thousands. Originally, it would be impossible for them to treat a commoner trial taker as if they were facing a great enemy.
But now, Li Xiang and Baimiya had obtained a large pile of Origin Form Crystals. He had killed a bunch of aristocratic family members and their followers, possibly even top trial takers like He Yi and Eight Cloud Ruler. As for his strength, Bai Haiting had seen it with his own eyes. He also had a cheat-like Winged Chariot, so they had no choice but to take him seriously.
Since there was no way to avoid him, and he could come knocking on their door, taking the initiative to attack seemed like a pretty good idea.
Quite a few people were tempted. They all looked at Mu Fan, asking for his opinion.
Mu Fan was not only the strongest trial taker, but also their spiritual support. With him here, no matter how strong Li Xiang was, they would not be afraid.
"Isn't taking the initiative to attack too degrading? Any one of us here is a character who can summon the wind and summon the rain outside. Joining hands for a commoner and taking the initiative to attack him, isn't that too degrading? "A young girl sipped her tea, her expression cold.
"Do you have any other good ideas?" Yue Shan felt a headache coming on. He was the tallest in the group, and his words were like thunder. The young girl frowned and lowered her head, not saying anything.
"Hey, I don't think dealing with him is a big deal. When we kill him, how do we split the Origin Form Crystals?" a sharp-mouthed, monkey-cheeked youth suddenly asked.
"Naturally, whoever kills him gets it," Yue Shan immediately answered. The Yue Clan could only be considered second-rate among the aristocratic families, above average. If he could obtain even a single Origin Form Crystal, it would be of great help to his future cultivation.
Very quickly, the focus of the discussion shifted back to the Origin Form Crystals.
"This is indeed the best way to deal with this. If we combine forces to search for him in the various hunting areas, we'll definitely be able to find him. When the time comes, we'll send out a signal, and everyone will follow Brother Yue Shan's suggestion. Whoever kills him gets the crystals." Mu Fan made the final decision. He really did not want to let this matter delay his progress in accumulating points.
If they dealt with this hidden danger today, there were still two days left. If they went all out, they might even be able to fight for first place.
Since Mu Fan had already said this, the others naturally did not refute. They all expressed their willingness to help search for Li Xiang.
In their eyes, this trial taker's cancer needed to be removed as soon as possible.
.....
Li Xiang, covered in blood, had just returned to the cave when he saw Fei Yujing helping Ming Xu clean her body. He hurriedly retreated awkwardly. To his surprise, Ming Xu, who had been unconscious all this time, had finally woken up. However, her face was filled with displeasure, as if she did not like Fei Yujing helping her clean her body. However, she could not move, so she could only let her clean her wounds.
Those sinister, terrifying, and densely packed scars had all healed, leaving behind only a few scraps of old skin. They fell off as soon as she wiped them with a towel.
Below was new, tender skin, soft and smooth to the touch. Fei Yujing was extremely envious.
"Why didn't you let him in?" Ming Xu tilted her head and asked.
Fei Yujing paused for a moment, then laughed, "Little Sister Ming Xu, you're a girl. You can't just let a boy see your body."
"But he's already seen it many, many times …"
“.....”
Fei Yujing smiled and continued to talk to her in a low voice. She could feel Ming Xu's vigilance towards her from the tone of their conversation. However, she was like a naive child who did not know anything. She did everything according to her heart. Sometimes, she would suddenly go into a daze or become cold.
Fei Yujing was very clear about this feeling.
It was as if she was tightly wrapped in layers of masks. No one could see through her heart.
"Alright, get your ass in here." Fei Yujing shouted towards the outside of the cave.
Li Xiang walked in awkwardly. When he saw Fei Yujing's expression, he knew that she was about to flip out. He hurriedly stepped aside to ask about Ming Xu's situation.
Seeing him, Ming Xu smiled sweetly and waved her little fist, "I'm fine."
Those few punches were very forced. It could be seen that the Magic Bullet's effect was fading, but it had not completely disappeared.
Li Xiang and Fei Yujing were both frightened by her tenacious vitality.
This was the first time they had heard of someone who could slowly recover after being hit by the Magic Bullet.
"Oh, right. I went to kill Bai Yunfei. Sorry, I couldn't help it. Did I cause you trouble? "Li Xiang sat down and took the rations.
Fei Yujing's body trembled. Then she laughed softly and stroked the hair next to her ear, "Yes, his father is a prospective councilor of the branch family. He's deeply loved by the sixteenth ancestor. He's also my fiancé in name. You killed my fiancé. I'm not married yet. It's hard to avoid people saying that I'm a jinx. Don't you think it's serious? "
Hearing the teasing in her voice, Li Xiang shrugged his shoulders, "I didn't want to, but I couldn't take it lying down."
"Why? Because I agreed to marry him? "
"You like Li Xiang. Why do you want to marry Bai Yunfei?!" Ming Xu on one side stuck her head out and suddenly said to her, "Do you know? Li Xiang likes you very much. Sometimes he even calls your name when he sleeps at night. You obviously like him too. Why do you want to marry someone else? "
Originally, Li Xiang, who was sitting on the side, would have been very moved to hear someone speak up for him. He had indeed wronged Fei Yujing, but she had agreed to Bai Yunfei's request without a word. Without even discussing it with him, was she not hurting him?
But when these words came out of Ming Xu's mouth, it felt very strange. Moreover, the words "sleep at night …"
"Sister Ming Xu, I didn't really want to marry him." Fei Yujing smiled helplessly. There was no need to explain things like power and family to a girl like Ming Xu.
She did not need to understand.
"But Li Xiang is sad. I don't want him to be sad." Ming Xu raised her head and looked at her eyes with a puzzled expression, "You like him so much. You don't want him to be sad, right?"
