Chapter 816: Points

Although the charge of cavalry was incredibly powerful, it became problematic when facing a single target—or even when the target was invisible. This was exactly the situation faced by the Mongol cavalry at that time.
Only those in the innermost circle could see happiness; those behind them were surrounded, unable to attack those inside while instead suffering from their attacks.
In contrast, Happy became more and more courageous as the battle progressed!
The later stages of “Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms” became even more powerful, and the swirling air currents around him reduced damage, indirectly lowering the harm he endured and making it easier for him to engage in group battles.
Starting with the tactic of using a dragon shape to dodge attacks and counterattack, Happy gradually stopped avoiding less threatening attacks and instead faced them head-on. His roaring dragon cries seemed to carry an even more domineering aura!
Several Mongol cavalry were flung away by his roaring golden dragon, creating a bloody path as he charged through the air, striking repeatedly with his palms. The icy dragon energy around him made it difficult for the surrounding Mongol cavalry to get close…
With a determined gaze, Happy charged straight into the crowd, aiming at the cavalry member with a serious expression—his target was the formidable leader of the Mongol cavalry, the one who kept giving orders.
Probably…
This cavalry leader’s strength was equivalent to that of a master at the peak of the Wuwei realm.
“Let’s see how much you’re worth.”
…
While Happy wreaked havoc in the enemy’s rear under the cover of night, chaos erupted in the main camp of the Central Plains, where the points ranking list was displayed.
Various factions came here to check the rankings of the top 100 and see if any new tasks would be announced the next day.
Suddenly, someone noticed a slight change in the ranking list. A name had made its way onto the list and was steadily rising…
“Happy!”
“His points are increasing so fast! He’s entered the top 100!!”
The astonished cries quickly caught the attention of everyone in the main camp.
Those from the Mu Family and Yipin Hall were especially concerned.
From the first night, they had checked Happy’s points on the ranking list and were surprised to find that he only had a mere 35 points…
Not only were the high-ranking members of the Mu Family shocked, but even Meng Yun and his group from Yipin Hall were puzzled, not understanding what had happened.
They certainly didn’t think Happy would be defeated on the battlefield.
However, although the Mongol cavalry had shown incredible strength on the first day, it wasn’t enough to explain why Happy would end up with such a poor score.

Yipintang cautiously speculated that Kaixin was probably on a secret mission or distracted by other matters. Many people shared this view. However, there was one person who didn’t think so—Lu Mingyue. As the successor to Dongfang Bubai, after more than half a year of recuperation, he had mastered the “Sunflower Secret Manual” to an extraordinary level. HisCotton Palm was deadly, capable of sending others to heaven; his flying needles were silent, able to kill without a trace; his Sunflower energy field was ever-changing. It could be said that the Lu Mingyue of today was no longer the amateur who once relied on that manual to fight… Although “Orochimaru,” who ranked first on the list of evil forces thanks to his “Xuanming Divine Palm,” still held him in check, Lu Mingyue considered only five people to be his real rivals: Kaixin, Yidi, Ren Jie, Huangsha, and Hongchen. As the master of the Mingyue Palace, Lu Mingyue had considerable ambitions, but he still held back when it came to Kaixin. Moreover, his palace was small and lacked depth, so he remained near Nu Jiao Island, having no desire to compete for dominance. But this time… it gave Lu Mingyue hope of returning to the martial world! Especially on the first day, when the martial artists from the Central Plains suffered defeats, it greatly inspired him! While other martial artists had little chance to resist the Mongol cavalry, Lu Mingyue’s flying needle technique was different from ordinary hidden weapons—it was fast, nearly invisible to the naked eye, and extremely lethal, killing one after another. If not for the small number of Mongol cavalry found in a day and the chaos on the battlefield, which prevented him from fully unleashing his strength, how could he have allowed Huangsha and Yinhu to take the lead? Lu Mingyue tried several times to go alone into the enemy camp but hesitated, fearing he might attract skilled Mongol warriors and evil sect experts, resulting in wasted effort… Seeing Kaixin’s score was extremely low, an uneasy thought flashed through Lu Mingyue’s mind: Could it be… that Kaixin had gone into the enemy camp?! So, when he heard someone exclaim that Kaixin had made it onto the ranking list, Lu Mingyue quickly rushed over to it, his delicate phoenix-like eyes fixed intently on the name whose score kept rising… 97th place, Kaixin, 1685 points! The score kept climbing, and so did his rank: “So fast!” “It’s still rising! Ninety already!!” A few people in the crowd were extremely excited. 82nd place, Kaixin, 2215 points! “Hiss…”

Meng Yun frowned tightly, holding her breath as she stared intently at the rankings, her eyes flickering—Xiao Kai’s score had been 35 points just two minutes ago, yet it had already increased by over two thousand points so quickly…
His rank was still rising!
His score kept surging!
68th place, Xiao Kai, with 2,585 points!
Xiao Kai’s progress stopped at 2,585 points, in 68th place—a speed that was truly astonishing.
Half a minute passed before his score finally stopped changing…
Inside the main hall, hundreds of people let out a sigh of relief at the same time.
Numerous experts turned their attention toward the group from the Mu family.
“Could it be they’re back to complete a mission?” The Mu family was equally surprised and puzzled, gathering together to whisper: “It can’t be. If they had returned, they would have notified us long ago.”
“Besides, it seems the family head was given a mission to scout behind enemy lines, with a reward of at most 1,000 points…”
“Xiao Kai must be over in the enemy camp.”
“The enemy camp?” Hong Chen and Lin Xiao from the Xiyi Gate frowned worriedly: “Although Xiao Kai is quite skilled, the Mongol army has the Magic Sect and the martial master Bi Xuan on their side—both are peerless warriors we can’t match. It would be dangerous if they noticed him.”
“Don’t worry. Though a mythic warrior like Xiao Kai might not be able to defeat them, with the Nine Yang Divine Skill, he can definitely escape if needed…” Yin Hu explained.
“Maybe?” Mo Feng sensed something unusual in Yin Hu’s words. He glanced around, observing the reactions of the Mu family’s group, his heart filled with turmoil that wouldn’t subside for a long time.
The reactions of the Mu family’s group were very calm…
Apart from a few showing concern, most of the high-ranking members wore a faint, inexplicable smile, as if…
Just then, screams rang out again:
“Damn! The score! It’s moving again!! Three thousand! Three thousand five! He’s made it into the top ten!!!”
Everyone’s brows furrowed in shock!
