Chapter 043 Competition Ranking
Gathering shape! Meng Xiang's eyes condensed, and a powerful aura erupted from his body. The speed of the downward rush not only did not slow down, but also accelerated.
Immediately afterwards, the sword mountain transformed from heavy sword shadows instantly converged, turning into a sword light that was half a foot long, and suddenly increased speed, turning into a faint white shadow, slashing downwards.
The sword light flashed through the middle of the translucent blood-colored wolf's head, and then broke through the blood-red beast energy that protected the blood-colored wolf's body. Although its size was reduced by almost half, its speed still did not slow down at all, and it slashed between the blood-colored wolf's eyebrows.
In an instant, time stopped. Meng Xiang kept slashing his sword while the blood-colored wolf kept sprinting upward and motionless. After two breaths, everything was broken.
Meng Xiang used the rebounding force of the blood-colored wolf to hit the blood-colored wolf, and flew back about two feet away, landing lightly on the ground. The blood-colored wolf fell to the ground in an extremely clumsy posture, stirring up a piece of smoke and dust. He struggled several times to stand up, but failed. He fell to the ground and thrust a few times, and dark purple blood flowed out of its nose, mouth and ears, and died.
When Meng Xiang killed the blood-red wolf, he followed the blood-bred wolf behind it and arrived. He stepped forward, with a calm gait, as if he was not facing dozens of vicious wolves, but went for a walk after eating.
The blood-maned wolf who arrived were extremely angry when they saw Meng Xiang killing their leader, and howled and rushed towards him, stating to tear him to pieces.
Meng Xiang's gait did not change at all, and he still walked forward slowly, but every blood-bred wolf that was within one meter of his body would suddenly die, and blood surged out of his mouth and nose without exception.
However, as long as someone has a good eye, he will see clearly the reason why the blood-bred wolf died suddenly, and they all died at the hands of Meng Xiang.
As soon as each blood-maned wolf approaches Meng Xiang's distance of one zhang, the long sword on his waist will fly out, and the sword light will shoot, slashing between its eyebrows. However, there was a strange move in the process of killing the wolf. Every time he cut a knife, he would insert the long sword back into the scabbard, but no matter how many blood-maned wolfs rushed towards him, it would not delay him from killing them all.
In almost the blink of an eye, Meng Xiang killed almost fifty blood-maned wolfs, and none of the blood-maned wolfs who were killed by him and wanted to escape escaped.
Meng Xiang looked outside the valley and found that Yan Shi was still fighting with the ambushed blood-maned wolf, but he had killed most of it and there was no danger anymore. So he said, "Stone, you will leave the rest to you." Then he walked towards the dark cave under the cliff.
After entering the cave, his eyes suddenly darkened, but soon he recovered most of his vision. However, at this moment, several wolves launched sneak attacks on him, but they were all killed by him.
It was not too long, Meng Xiang searched the caves, and the remaining blood-bred wolf was killed by him. All the dead wolf was thrown out of the hole by him, with more than twenty. In addition to the previous killing of the enemy and Yan Shi, the number of wolf packs occupying the Thousand Wolf Valley reached 100, which is also a relatively large wolf pack.
When Meng Xiang walked out of the last cave, Yan Shi also killed the last blood-maned wolf and walked towards him with a bloody long sword.
From afar, Meng Xiang waved his hand to stop him: "Shitou, go out and inform Changfu and Changshou, let them send a signal to find someone and move these blood-bred wolves out of the valley. But remember not to tell them how many wolves there are."
Although Yan Shi was a little confused about Meng Xiang's last words, he did not ask too much, responded, rubbed the blood on the knife on a blood-maned wolf, and even put the knife into the sheath, and walked out of the valley with great strides.
Meng Xiang looked around and took out a dark red equilateral octagonal box from his mouth. It was the God of War Platform. He threw it in the air and a red light flashed, and his body instantly expanded three or four feet square. On it, a beautiful woman with red eyes and red hair appeared on it. It was the spirit of the God of War Platform - Hongxue.
Hongxue looked around and found wolf corpses all over the ground. Her eyes lit up and she asked with a smile: "Master, are you going to give me these wolf?"
"Part. You can only take away part." Meng Xiang knew that he had to make it clear. Now Hongxue is actively restoring some functions of the God of War Station, urgently requiring various blood and animal corpses. If he didn't say it clearly, she would take away all the wolf corpses, and once she took it away, there would be no possibility of getting it back.
"Master, you are so stingy!" Hongxue rolled her eyes and said, "I thought these were for me."
After all, Meng Xiang is the master of Hongxue. Although she wants to sweep away all the wolf corpses, she still cannot go against his wishes. After some bargaining, Hongxue took away fifty-seven wolf corpses, including the wolf king who met the standards of a ferocious beast.
If the ferocious beast, Wolf King, is left alone, he can get the first place in the Maple Town Hunting Competition. After all, ferocious beasts and ordinary beasts are no longer on the same level. However, considering that they cannot be too ostentatious, he still reluctantly handed it over to Hongxue.
There was another reason for him to do this. He discovered that there was a wolf in the pack that was bigger than the one he had just arrived at the tree world to kill. With it, he could already get a good ranking in the hunting competition, and there was no need to show off too much. The most important thing for him now is to increase his strength, rather than causing trouble and wasting time.
When it was almost dark, the people who were Meng Xiang and others finally came. It was Zhang Tieniu and the others. When they saw the piles of wolf corpses, they were really surprised. At first, they thought they were lying forever.
Now everything is right in front of them, and they have nothing to say, especially Zhang Tieniu was really sorry to think that he had excluded such a powerful teammate, but Meng Xiang and Yan Shi didn't care.
After some discussion, since it was far away from Mapleshu Town, Zhang Tieniu and others felt that the harvest was already good, they decided that everyone would take their prey back. If they encountered good prey on the road, they would do it, and if they couldn't meet them, they would go back directly.
Maybe Zhang Tieniu and his team were so lucky that on the way back, they had no gains except seeing a herd of less than ten long-haired bulls.
The group walked slowly and finally rushed back to the meeting point at dusk on the seventh day. Manager Liu, who had been waiting for them, immediately met them when he saw them coming back, and couldn't wait to ask about the general situation. Meng Xiang and others didn't need to speak. Those who served them told them about the passage and heard him nodding frequently.
Especially after seeing the gains from everyone, he smiled his originally small eyes into two thin slits. According to the level of previous years, this time, the Refining No. 1 will not be at the bottom.
When the lights were held, almost everyone except for a few participating hunters came back. Some well-known people led by the mayor said some encouragement words and announced that they would count the prey tonight and announce the results of the competition tomorrow at noon.
After living in the wild for seven days, although there were helps to prepare the food, Meng Xiang and Yan Shi were still a little greedy. So when Manager Liu personally invited them to the banquet, they did not postpone it. They had a big meal and came back to rest until midnight.
Before noon the next day, the town and the mansion were already crowded, and everyone was smiling. Even people who were not familiar with each other could laugh a few times. However, what everyone talked the most was to guess who could win the top three in this hunting competition.
After a long wait, the mayor and some well-known towns walked out of the mayor's house and slowly walked onto the already-set lottery platform. After commenting on this hunting competition, the mayor began to read out the top ten places in the hunting competition.
Since the hunting competition is an individual competition, although the major forces have formed a hunting team, there is actually no group results, this does not hinder the competition between them, because everyone knows who belongs to which force. Finally, they will be able to calculate their results, especially the results of the top ten members of the competition, and it is easy to distinguish them.
In the last session, only one person from Lianfeng won the top ten in the competition, which was captain Zhang Tieniu, but his results were not very good, and he was the ninth place in the competition.
This time, Store Manager Liu, who represented Lianfeng, seemed particularly nervous. Although he thought Meng Xiang, Yan Shi and Zhang Tieniu had good results, he did not know the performance of other participating hunters, and he was inevitably very nervous. However, as time went by, his face gradually changed.
The mayor announced it from the tenth place, then the ninth place, moving forward upside down, and finally the first place. Now he has reached the sixth place, and no one belongs to the Lianfeng number sixth to tenth place.
"Fifth place Zhang Tiechao...Fourth place Wang Degui..."
When Manager Liu heard that the fifth and fourth place were still not the one who refined the Feng, the sweat on his forehead suddenly flowed down during the cold weather.
He organized the hunting team of Lianfeng. Although the results were not very good in previous years, there were still people who could appear in the top ten, which was considered to be a last bit of face. If none of the top ten were Lianfeng this time, even if the shopkeepers of the old and young would not punish him, he would not be able to forgive himself. He knew very well what it means to have money but not have enough power to defend himself in this world where strength is respected.
Just as disappointment will appear without warning when it is closest to success, hope will appear at the most desperate times, and the names of the top three in the competition that the mayor read out next pulled him out from the abyss of disappointment: "...the third place is Yan Shi, the second place is Meng Xiang, and the championship of the competition belongs to Lou Deshui."
"What? The second place, the third place are all our people from the Refining Feng? I... I didn't have a dream, right?" Manager Liu was stunned by the sudden surprise.
But he soon thought of something. Looking at Meng Xiang standing not far away beside him, a flash of hot light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he almost subconsciously shouted: "Master, I protest! Lou Deshui is not worthy of being the first place in the competition because he cheated."
Chapter completed!
