Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 816

Chapter 816: Points

The power within the cavaliers’ charge was very terrifying, but when they faced a single target and could not even see their target, the situation will be very awkward for them. This was the current situation for the Mongolian cavaliers.

Only the people in the innermost circle could see Happy. The people at the back formed an encirclement, but not only could they not attack the person inside, they were even affected by the person inside.

As for Happy, the ferocity of his strikes just became greater the more he fought!

The further into a fight Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms was, the fiercer and tougher it was. The tornadoes around him will also weaken the damage dealt on him as well, which will reduce the damage he will have to suffer, though the effect cannot be seen clearly. Still, this will allow him to have greater advantages in group fights.

In the beginning, Happy had to use Petite Dragon to avoid attacks and counterattacks, but gradually, Happy no longer avoided some of the attacks that were not that much of a threat to him. He faced danger head on, and the dragon roars seemed to have contained a domineering air as well!

Dozens of Mongolian cavaliers were sent flying away by the roaring golden dragon, and a bloody path was forcibly made! Happy jumped into the air, and while he was airborne, he continuously attacked with his palms. The dragon-shaped qi force contained a freezing aura, and it caused the Mongolian cavaliers around him to find it difficult to get close to him.

Happy’s gaze was determined. He charged into the group with brute force and went straight to the cavalier who had a solemn expression on his face. His target was the leader of the Mongolian cavaliers, the one with the astonishing presence who just kept giving orders to the cavaliers under his command.

Perhaps this cavalier commander’s strength was equivalent to a martial artist at the peak of Inaction Realm.

‘Let’s see how much you’re worth.’

Just as Happy used the night to rain down a massacre on the enemy rear, the area around the Chinese main camp where the point ranking board was placed burst into commotion.

In the beginning, different factions of power were just here to learn about and observe the points as well as names of those ranked in the top one hundred. They also wanted to investigate whether there were new quests that will be given on the second day.

At that moment, someone with a keen eye suddenly noticed that a slight change had happened on the War Achievement Points Rank.

One name had squeezed its way into the ranking board, and it was continuously overtaking the others ranked ahead of him.

“Happy!”

“His points are increasing so quickly! He’s already in the top one hundred!”

Right when the surprised cry rose, his voice quickly attracted everyone’s attention in the main camp, especially those from Mu Clan and Class One Hall. They paid the most attention to this matter.

When the first night arrived, they already went to find out how many points Happy obtained from the ranking board, and what surprised them was that Happy only gained a measly thirty-five points.

Not only were the higher ups in Mu Clan flabbergasted by this result, even Class One Hall’s Dream Clouds and her group found it strange. They did not know what happened.

Naturally, they did not believe that Happy died in the battlefield.

After all, while the strength those Mongolian cavaliers displayed on the first day was shocking, it was not to the extent that Happy will only gain such a pitiful score.

Class One Hall made a reserved assumption that Happy should be carrying out some sort of secret quest or was distracted by something else.

There were many smart people who thought so as well.

But there was one person who did not think so—Lu Mingyue.

As the successor for Dongfang Bubai, he had been recuperating for more than half a year, and he had already practiced his Sunflower Manual to the point of perfection. His Soft Palm Strike was brutal, and he can kill easily with it. His flying needles attacked soundlessly, and he killed without form. His Sunflower Aura can also go through all sorts of changes.

It can be said that the current Lu Mingyue was no longer the impulsive person who thought he could fight against the world with his imperfect Sunflower Manual.

Even though Orochimaru still took first place on Demon Influence Rank with Profound Abyss Divine Palm and was ranked above Lu Mingyue, to Lu Mingyue, there were no more than five strong enemies who could hope to fight against him—Happy, One Emperor, Responsible Hero, Barren Murderer, and Red Dust.

As the master of Cold Moon Palace, Lu Mingyue was actually a very ambitious person, but he was still a little wary of Happy. Besides, Cold Moon Palace was actually a small sect, and its core was actually not strong at all. Hence, it was always located near Raging Aquatic Dragon Island, and it never had the thought of fighting for dominance.

But this time, Lu Mingyue saw hope in emerging in World of Martial Arts once more.

This was especially so on the first day. The fact that multiple elites from the Chinese server had suffered a setback caused Lu Mingyue to feel incredibly excited.

When other players faced the Mongolian cavalier army’s iron hooves, very few of them had the ability to fight back, but Lu Mingyue’s Flying Needle Technique was different from normal hidden weapons. The flying needles were not only fast, it was also very difficult for those needles to be seen with the naked eye. Its damage was also astonishing, which was why when any cavalier went up to him, they will all die. If it were not because the Mongolian cavaliers he managed to find on the first day were too few and the battlefield was a little chaotic, causing Lu Mingyue to be unable to bring out his true potential, there was no way Barren Murderer and Silver Wolf can be ranked ahead of him.

Lu Mingyue had wanted to head to the enemy camp a few times, but he was wary of attracting the attention of Mongolian elites and the powerful martial artists from the evil cult. If he died, all his efforts will be wasted, and the situation will be bad for him.

Right then, when he saw that Happy’s points were incredibly low, a thought instantly flashed in Lu Mingyue’s mind, and it was one that caused him great unease.

‘Can it be… that Happy went to the enemy camp?!’

Hence, when everyone cried out in surprise about Happy’s ranking on the ranking board, Lu Mingyue moved in a flash and arrived near the ranking board. His gentle-looking, long, and narrow eyes were fixed on the name that was continuously shooting up the ranking board, and his eyes sparkled.

97th: Happy. Points: 1,685.

His points continued increasing, and his rank also increased.

“It’s so fast!”

“He’s still moving up! He’s at the ninetieth spot now!”

There were a few who were incredibly excited in the crowd.

82nd: Happy. Points: 2,215.

“Hiss…”

Dream Clouds scowled and held her breath while she stared at the ranking board without blinking. Her eyes sparkled.

Two minutes ago, Happy only had thirty-five points. She did not expect that he will have more than two thousand points within such a short amount of time.

His rank continued increasing!

His points also continued jumping up by leaps and bounds!

68th: Happy. Points: 2,585.

Happy’s progress stopped at 2,585, and he was ranked at the sixty-eighth spot. His progress up the ranking board had been so fast that everyone gasped in amazement.

Half a minute passed, and his points finally stopped moving.

Hundreds of people released sighs of relief at the same time in the main camp.

Countless players cast their gazes to Mu Clan’s group.

Mu Clan was also shocked and bewildered. They gathered together to whisper and talk to each other.

“Could it be that he came back to submit his quest?”

“I don’t think so. If he did, he’ll have notified us a long time ago.”

“Besides, I think that the clan master took a quest to perform reconnaissance at the enemy rear. At the very most, his reward will be one thousand points.”

“Happy should have arrived near the enemy camp.”

“The enemy camp?”

Chivalry Sect’s Red Dust and Lin Xiao frowned. They looked worried.

“While Happy is good, the Mongolian army has the evil cult guarding them, and there is also Martial Paragon Bi Xuan with them. They’re all matchless elites that we cannot hope to fight against. If we attract their attention, things will be dangerous for us.”

“Don’t worry. While Happy might not be able to win against Myth Realm elites, since he has Nine Yang Divine Skill with him, he will absolutely have no problem in fleeing,” Silver Wolf explained.

“Might?” Wind Void keenly noticed something odd from Silver Wolf’s words. She looked around and saw Mu Clan’s reaction. What she saw caused a storm to rage in her heart, and it did not calm down even after a long time.

Mu Clan was very calm about this.

Aside from a few people looking worried, most of the higher ups in Mu Clan had an inexplicable smile on their faces, as if…

At that moment, surprised cries rose again.

“What the heck?! The points moved again! Three thousand! Three thousand five! He’s at the top ten now!”

The group of people feel their eyelids twitch madly!
