Xu Yihai continued, "We still have to take things one step at a time, and we still have to eat our meals one bite at a time."

"I've seen the rankings, and I'm very pleased. With the exception of a few individuals, everyone did very well in this trial. Although the Ghost Python incident was an accident, it fully tested everyone's adaptability and teamwork. Never abandoning or giving up is the foundation of a team."

"I won't say much more. Anyway, it's always the same few sentences. You can find my quotes by looking through my previous articles. I won't go on here."

"Below is the individual points leaderboard. The list of the top 500 has been posted on the bulletin board at the exit of the square, and it has also been published on the Xiangjiang District's official WeChat account. You can go and take a look."

"The list I have is the top ten..."

Although the list had already been released, none of the people present were secretly looking at the personal computers below. Instead, their eyes were shining as they waited for Xu Yihai to announce the list of the top ten. This was out of respect for Xu Yihai, and also out of respect for the strong.

The strong are never just a noun; they are a verb. Only when strength and mindset are in harmony can one be admired.

"Fifth place, Yue Xuan from Liancheng, points!"

"Fourth place, Li Muqing from Yuncheng, points."

"Third place, Zhai Wen from Xiangyue District, points."

"Second place, Binan District, Longyue, points."

"First place, Li Hei from Binnan District, points."

As Xu Yihai announced the rankings, the emotions of the martial artists below grew higher and higher. Even if they were not among those whose names were called, they were still happy, for they had witnessed the birth of a powerful figure.

A level 5 martial artist might not seem like much to others, but to most level 5 martial artists, they are someone they cannot compare to, even if they are at the same level.

They are self-aware; talent is something not everyone possesses, nor is it something everyone has in the same way.

Even if the martial artists whose names were called out appeared calm on their faces, their bodies betrayed them. Their slightly trembling hands and clenched fists showed the turmoil in their hearts.

The martial artists in the region where the name of the martial artist was called would also be extremely excited. Although it wasn't them, they felt honored and proud.

Starting with the seventh-ranked warrior, the score of 20,000 points had already caused a stir. When the score of the second-ranked warrior was announced, everyone was in an uproar. 40,000 points—they had never seen or even heard of such a number before. How many monsters had they killed, or how many people had they snatched it from?

Everyone turned their attention to Binnan District. There were only about two hundred people in Binnan District, thanks to Binbei District, which had more than a hundred fewer people.

The people in Binnan District were also surprised. Although everyone knew that two people would be in the top ten, the more than 40,000 points still shocked them.

The excitement that followed was palpable. Hahaha, their district swept first and second place! The people in Binbei District must be furious.

Within the Binbei District, a low-pressure atmosphere prevailed. Some people gritted their teeth, while others harbored resentment. Of course, it was uncertain who they were resentful of.

After all, the main responsibility for this incident doesn't lie with Binnan District. Greed knows no bounds, and they deserve to end up with nothing.

Outside the concentration camp, the leaders of each district had been waiting for a long time. They had received a last-minute notice to come and take the martial artists from their districts back.

Above the gate, an electronic screen displayed the scene inside the square, and Xu Yihai's words echoed outside.

Due to the importance of the trial, the martial artists could only transmit information within the arena, not to the outside world. Therefore, the outside world had no idea what was going on.

The head of Binbei District arrived late, missing a good show about them. Of course, they were not aware of this and, after feeling the strange looks coming from all around, they simply assumed that everyone was jealous of them.

Because they have made ample preparations for this trial, ensuring absolute success. Binnan District is just waiting to be trampled under their feet.

When Mo Huai saw Hu Yiguang, he sneered and said sarcastically, "Oh, why do you look so pale? I knew it. What kind of results could a region with only three hundred people participating in the trial possibly achieve? Looking at your pale face, I'm embarrassed to even laugh."

"Hahaha, Brother Huai, laugh if you want. Some people won't shed a tear until they're dead." Xia Tiantian put a hand on Mo Huai's shoulder, looking arrogant.

Hu Yiguang glanced at the two of them and said, "If you're sick, you need to get treatment. If you're blind, go see a doctor. I don't know which of your eyes saw that I looked unwell."

Xia Tiantian immediately exploded when she heard Hu Yiguang say that, "Hu Yiguang, who are you calling crazy?"

"Whoever agrees, that's fine. Tsk tsk tsk, some people missed out on a big show earlier. But it's okay, I'm sure there's video footage on the official website. I wonder if your boss will be furious when he sees it?"

Hu Yiguang was in a wonderful mood and wasn't angry at all. He smiled and kindly reminded the two of their concerns.

When he saw that Binbei District had been singled out by the general, he knew that the martial artists in Binbei District must have used some dirty tricks to cause their downfall. Although he didn't know how his own district's martial artists fared, if the other side was in trouble, their district would be in trouble.

Just then, the top ten individual scorers were being announced, so Hu Yiguang ignored them.

"First place, Li Hei from Binnan District..."

The ten people have been announced. Hu Yiguang was beaming with joy. He was in high spirits, and his face was flushed with excitement.

In stark contrast to the excited Hu Yiguang, the two from Binbei District found it hard to accept the situation. Mo Huai's mouth was agape, and Xia Tiantian's eyes were wide open.

"Impossible! Where are our district's warriors? Where did they all go?" Mo Huai asked incredulously. He couldn't believe that their district wouldn't be in the top ten.

"The first place is a martial artist from your Binnan District? I don't believe it, that's impossible. Why isn't the first place from our Binbei District?" Xia Tiantian reacted the same way after Mo Huai's words.

"Oh? Why did you choose your Binbei District first? Or have you done something shady?"

Even before Hu Yiguang spoke, some people wanted to criticize Binbei District, especially those areas that had been harmed by people from Binbei District. The news spread the moment they stepped into the area.

"Hmph, we'll settle our score after the meeting!" One of the leaders glanced coldly at the two of them, his voice chillingly cold.

"Quiet down. Now, I will announce the top ten teams." Xu Yihai's authoritative voice came from the electronic screen.
