"Fellow Daoist Zhenru, do you know Daoist Wenxi?"
The sound of the wind drifting by came, and Liu Yunqing casually withdrew her gaze, shaking her head as she said:
"How could I, a mere rogue cultivator, possibly know any powerful figures from sects? So who is she?"
Feng Piaopiao had no doubts, and upon hearing Liu Yunqing's question, she immediately explained:
"This is Daoist Wenxi of the Taixuan Sect. She doesn't concern herself with these worldly matters, so it's normal that you don't recognize her. Oh, right, why is it her who came from the Taixuan Sect this time?"
Liu Yunqing's eyes flashed, she blinked quickly, and concealed her expression as she said:
"He seems so energetic and lively, how come he's actually a reclusive hermit?"
"No, that's not true!"
Speaking of this, Feng Piaopiao pouted, revealing his interest in gossip, and was about to tell Liu Yunqing in detail, but the person he was about to tell him in detail called his name the next moment.
"Feng Piaopiao, early stage of Foundation Establishment, Shangqing Sect, total points 1362, ranked eighth, come up and claim your reward."
Feng Piaopiao quickly stopped talking, stepped forward, and bowed to Daoist Wenxi.
"Thank you, Daoist Xie Wenxi!"
Feng Piaopiao wasn't exceptionally beautiful, but she had a sweet tongue and wasn't disliked, so the elders all liked her quite a bit. Even Daoist Wenxi couldn't help but praise her:
"So lazy, yet you've already reached Foundation Establishment before the age of twenty. Not bad, here you go."
Feng Piaopiao happily accepted it, but after recalling Wenxi Daojun's words and looking at the faces of many people trying to suppress their laughter, she felt that the words didn't quite sound like a compliment.
However, he never cared about these things. If the elders liked to tease him, so be it. Didn't that just show that they liked him?
Feng Piaopiao, holding the storage bag containing the prizes, didn't even look inside. She happily stood back next to Liu Yunqing, glancing towards Liu Yunzhao and saying:
"You've given us so many points, are you sure you can still beat Liu Yunzhao?"
After saying this, Feng Piaopiao continued without waiting for Liu Yunqing to speak:
"Aren't you afraid that she'll give up all the team's points for herself just to beat you?"
Anyway, Feng Piaopiao didn't believe that woman would be willing to share the good things she needed with others, just like Liu Yunqing did.
Liu Yunqing slightly curled the corners of her lips, then decisively shook her head and said:
"Don't worry, she won't do that."
Although Liu Yunqing wanted Liu Yunzhao dead at all times, Liu Yunzhao was obviously more concerned about his image than the reward, so why would he bother to share the team members' points?
Although the rankings of this hunting competition are the basis for redistributing common resources, Liu Yunzhao doesn't care.
As expected, the rankings announced by Daoist Wenxi included those from both the Tayun Team and the Yunzhao Team, with the two sides being almost evenly matched.
From third to tenth place, the teams from both sides swept all the spots, leaving only the first and second place teams yet to be announced.
It is obvious that the only cultivators whose scores have not yet been announced are Liu Yunqing and Liu Yunzhao.
"The scores of the top two finishers in the hunting competition will now be announced."
As soon as Daoist Wenxi uttered these words, everyone's gaze in the entire square fell upon Liu Yunqing and Liu Yunzhao.
The rogue cultivator Zhenru, dressed in a dazzling red robe, exuded a sharp and imposing aura. Hmm, he looked like he could be number one.
Dressed in elegant white, with a graceful and otherworldly appearance, Liu Yunzhao is also the daughter of destiny. Hmm, she looks like she was born to be number one.
So who came in first place?
Instead of announcing the rankings immediately, Daoist Wenxi looked back and forth between the two with great interest.
When a commotion arose in the square, Daoist Wenxi spoke again:
"Should I announce the rankings directly, or should I announce the points first?"
Sword cultivators are the most impatient, and hearing Daoist Henxi's dawdling, Sword Master Mingchong couldn't wait any longer and said:
"Oh well, let's just announce the rankings!"
Wenxi Daojun's bright face remained unchanged with a smile, and he nodded, saying:
"Okay, then I'll announce the score first."
"105,600 points".
The moment these points were announced, the entire square erupted in an uproar.
The hunting competition awards 10 points for killing a Foundation Establishment demon beast and 100 points for killing a Golden Core demon beast.
One hundred thousand points equals ten thousand Foundation Establishment level demonic beasts and one thousand Golden Core level demonic beasts.
No wonder, no wonder the other people in the top ten all had such low scores; it turns out that the first and second place winners took all the spots.
However, with just this score, they don't know whether it's first or second place.
You know, sometimes the difference between the first and second place scores is huge, and the other one shouldn't have 100,000 points, right?
After announcing the scores, Wenxi Daojun paused deliberately, listening attentively to the discussions in the square, showing no hurry to announce the next score.
When the voices asking whether this was first or second place grew louder, Daoist Wenxi finally spoke slowly again:
"The person who scored this point is Liu Yunzhao of the Wanmiao Sect."
Liu Yunzhao bowed slightly, then turned to look at Liu Yunqing, trying to glean some clues from her expression.
Unfortunately, Liu Yunqing remained calm throughout, revealing no clue whatsoever. Liu Yunzhao could only turn back and wait for Daoist Wenxi to announce the answer.
"Congratulations to Liu Yunzhao of the Wanmiao Sect for winning second place in this hunting competition."
This time, Daoist Wenxi paused for a very short time, but when he gave his answer, the entire room fell silent for a moment before erupting into an uproar.
Did Liu Yunzhao lose?
Liu Yunzhao, who was revered as the moon and surrounded by stars in the Wanmiao Sect, lost.
105,600 points, and you lost?
Wouldn't the first place's points be outrageous?
The expressions on everyone's faces gradually changed from surprise to excitement, and their gazes toward Daoist Wenxi were as bright as light bulbs.
Daoist Wenxi did not disappoint; he cleared his throat and announced loudly:
"The first place winner of this hunting competition has 105,601 points!"
"Let us congratulate our rising star, the rogue cultivator Zhenru, on winning first place in the hunting competition!"
The previous excitement vanished instantly after Daoist Wenxi announced the scores.
Because anyone with eyes can see that this "one" point is purely to embarrass Liu Yunzhao and make him lose first place.
But that's not important. What's important is that Liu Yunqing is happy!
Isn't Liu Yunzhao someone who appears outwardly tolerant, righteous, calm, and composed, but in reality, always strives to be number one and wants everything to be the best?
Then Liu Yunqing insisted on making her second, just enough to make her second.
Liu Yunzhao had already seen through Liu Yunqing's intentions, and only smiled as he congratulated Liu Yunqing:
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Zhenru, on your remarkable achievements so early in your cultivation journey. I am delighted for you."
Acting? Anyone can do that.
Liu Yunqing returned the greeting politely and said with a smile:
"Thank you, Fairy Yun Zhao. I deserve all the achievements I have made, and I am happy for myself."
After speaking, he nodded politely and walked towards Wenxi Daojun.
As Liu Yunqing accepted the first-place prize with both hands and chatted amiably with Daoist Wenxi, an idea suddenly popped into Liu Yunzhao's mind.
What that wisp of divine soul in the mustard seed space wants to do might not actually be a bad thing.
