Chapter 1068 1062: First Place in the Hunting Tournament
Xinghai and Deng Nan, upon hearing this, immediately walked out of the tent.
The group responsible for registering the combat power records of competition participants from Flying Leopard Academy was situated near the tent, and they saw Liang Bao approaching confidently.
About hundreds of people followed behind him, eager to know how Liang Bao, who ranked first on the combat power leaderboard, performed in this hunting event and whether he could claim the top spot.
Among the trailing crowd was Xu Li, who ranked third on the leaderboard.
Xu Li felt anxious at this moment, quietly following the crowd, and waited nervously for Liang Bao to announce his hunting results.
Liang Bao saw Dean Xinghai and Vice Dean Deng Nan standing behind the registration team, looking at him with anticipation.
Liang Bao walked over and first bowed to Xinghai and Deng Nan,
"Greetings, deans!"
Xinghai chuckled and said,
"Liang Bao, no need for formalities. I'm eager to know how you did in this hunt."
Liang Bao smiled slightly and said,
"Reporting to the dean, I slaughtered over 50 Empire Level Primary Realm demon beasts in the Flying Leopard Mountain Range this time."
The crowd behind him immediately started discussing upon hearing this:
"Damn, only 50 Empire Level Primary Realm demon beasts? That's way too few!"
"Is he really Liang Bao, who ranks first on the combat power leaderboard? This is quite disappointing."
...
The crowd was filled with disdain and confusion towards Liang Bao.
"One hundred Empire Middle Level Realm demon beasts,"
Liang Bao said blandly.
Upon hearing this, everyone exclaimed "Ah!"
Xu Li, who stood in the crowd, turned pale instantly after hearing this.
According to the hunting competition rules, one Empire Middle Level Realm demon beast is equivalent to ten Empire Level Primary Realm demon beasts,
thus, Liang Bao's hundred Empire Middle Level demon beasts are equivalent to over a thousand Empire Level Primary Realm demon beasts.
Just this score alone was enough to outshine any team.
The surrounding people were full of awe and admiration; those who just considered mocking Liang Bao immediately revered him deeply.
"No wonder he's ranked number one on the combat power leaderboard."
"Boss, please guide us!"
...
Xinghai showed a joyful smile.
Liang Bao was his most promising student; such achievements made him very pleased, his nurturing efforts were worthwhile.
"Thirty-eight Empire Level Advanced Realm demon beasts."
Liang Bao continued.
Once again, the entire place fell into silence, everyone stared dumbfounded at Liang Bao.
"Damn, he single-handedly killed thirty-eight Empire Level Advanced Realm demon beasts; Liang Bao's combat power is simply unbelievable."
After a brief silence, applause erupted like thunder among the hundreds present.
Liang Bao's cold face finally revealed a smug smile.
He knew that these accomplishments should secure the first place in this hunting event and gain him the Dragon Slayer Sword.
Amidst the applause from everyone, Liang Bao brought out three bags from his Space Ring and handed them to the staff responsible for registering trophies on-site.
The staff took Liang Bao's three bags, pouring the contents directly into a transparent container, colorful Demon Beast Brain Crystal Cores spilled from the bags, attracting envy from the surrounding people.
After a simple cleanup, the staff immediately reported to Dean Xinghai by his side:
"Reporting to the dean, the actual trophies Liang Bao handed over are, 52 Empire Level Primary Realm demon beast brain crystal cores, 123 Middle Level demon beast brain crystal cores, 38 Advanced Level demon beast brain crystal cores, inventory complete."
"Good, good, very good!"
Dean Xinghai uttered three consecutive 'good' words, then said:
"Liang Bao, I think you're undoubtedly the champion of this hunting contest."
Liang Bao immediately said humbly:
"You flatter me, dean. Until everyone submits their combat power trophies now, determining the champion is somewhat unreliable."
"Haha, Liang Bao, no need to be modest. It's indeed true; with your current overall score, no one should be able to surpass you."
As the dean, Xinghai was very familiar with the top ten students on the combat power leaderboard, and he also knew that although Fan Chen ranked second, in real combat power he was still substantially inferior compared to Liang Bao.
Among the spectators, Fan Chen and Yang Xiao, Xiao He, and others were also present.
"Yang Xiao, Liang Bao has already handed over his trophies, shouldn't we hand over ours as well?"
Gong Yu said.
Yang Xiao nodded and said:
"Okay, you go ahead and submit the trophies now."
Gong Yu stepped out from the crowd, loudly said:
"I want to submit combat power trophies."
The staff looked at Gong Yu indifferently and said:
"Oh! How many?"
From the staff's gaze, Gong Yu directly saw contempt and disdain.
"Damn, damn looking down on me?"
So Gong Yu loudly said:
"Empire Level Primary Realm demon beasts, 320 heads."
"Buzz!"
The onlooking crowd instantly blew up.
"Damn, who is this person, so awesome?"
Even Dean Xinghai was startled, staring blankly at Gong Yu.
Gong Yu came out alone, while Yang Xiao and others still stood among the crowd.
Fan Chen wanted to come out and wave to the audience, but Yang Xiao firmly held him back.
"Yang Xiao, why are you stopping me? Do you think Gong Yu can represent us?"
Yang Xiao: "....."
"Aren't you just looking to show off? You're the senior, shouldn't you yield a bit, ladies first!"
Wang Qian said and also wanted to step out of the crowd, end up being pulled back by Yang Xiao.
Wang Qian glared at Yang Xiao resentfully, turning to Xiao He said,
"Darling… Brother Xiao He, you should have the right to step out and accept the adoring looks and screams from everyone!"
Yang Xiao directly tapped Wang Qian on the head,
"What's this little brain always thinking?"
Xiao He smiled:
"No rush, let Gong Yu enjoy the limelight of admiration from thousands first."
At this moment, Liang Bao glanced at Gong Yu, struggling to recall when he had ever heard of Gong Yu, just feeling Gong Yu extremely ordinary, how could one person hunt over three hundred Empire Level Primary Realm demon beasts?
Even Dean Xinghai and Dean Deng Nan were stunned.
Moreover, both of their hearts simultaneously skipped a beat, remembering that Gong Yu and Yang Xiao were members of the same group, and Yang Xiao's team, along with Fan Chen, formed a temporary new team.
Could it be?
Dean Xinghai couldn't hold back the excitement inside, watching Gong Yu.
Gong Yu continued loudly:
"101 Empire Middle Level Realm demon beasts."
"Oh!"
The onlooking crowd gasped.
Liang Bao's face instantly turned exceedingly pale.
Gong Yu glanced at Liang Bao, smiling happily, and continued to announce loudly:
"58 Empire Level Advanced Realm demon beasts!"
"Buzz!"
Liang Bao felt a sudden inexplicable irritability inside, as if dozens of bugs were buzzing around in his mind.
