Damn, there’s really a ton of good stuff! Xiao Jie almost drooled at the sight of all the loot.

Just not sure how many he could claim for himself, two Wolf Demon Cores were a must-have, as they were critical items for achieving Cheng Xian, but he really wanted the other stuff too.

Next was the point calculation segment.

everyone-eyed each other desperately, afraid they had been short-changed.

The results soon came in.

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use began reporting points.

Hidden Moon Following Wind, unsurprisingly, became the point tyrant once again.

+20 points for being a guest elder.

Drawing out the Wolf King and his pack as bait, a remarkable feat +50 points.

Jumping into the fray during the ambush in the depression, severely injuring the Wolf King, a great feat +30 points.

A total of 170 points.

In comparison, everyone else’s scores showed a clear gap.

A group of five, including Hidden Dragon Do Not Use, blocking the escaping pack, a great feat +30.

direct confrontation with Dong Lingzi (unsuccessful), a feat of minor merit +10.

+20 for core members.

A total of 70 points.

Dida La: A total of 80 points...

Bai Ze: A total of 80 points...

As one by one the scores were calculated, aside from Xiao Jie, the highest any of the Master of Magics had gotten was 80 points.

The rest were high if they got sixty or seventy points.

Xiao Jie couldn’t help but feel a secret joy in his heart, adding his previous 40 points to his current 170, making a total of 210 points. With that, he should be able to claim two or three items without a problem.

"Captain, I should also be counted for a great feat in this battle, right?" a voice suddenly emerged in YY.

"Who’s speaking?" Hidden Dragon Do Not Use asked, surprised.

"It’s me, that Martial Monk from earlier." The voice calmly stated.

The crowd was immediately silent.

Xiao Jie thought (Damn, this guy is still here!?).

After a brief silence—

"Count it!" Hidden Dragon Do Not Use said: "Pingtou, resisting Dong Lingzi, covering for teammates, a great feat +30, core member +15, fallen in battle +20... a total of 65 points."

The last 20 points were clearly a bit biased, after all, there are death benefits for the deceased, to be taken care of by the main guild, no reason to award extra points, but at this time no one opposed.

Is it because the deceased are to be respected, or because their death was particularly heroic?

"Alright, next up is the auction for equipment, starting with the loot from Elite Monsters. The starting bid for items dropped by Elite Monsters is a flat 10 points, everyone prepare your points... Little White Dragon, you start recording."

The previous items auctioned were drops from Wolf Essence Captains and Wolf Demon Priests, nothing too exciting, so Xiao Jie wasn’t too interested.

Yet inconveniently, a message suddenly popped up in private chat.

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use: Brother Sui Feng, do you want those two Wolf Demon Cores?

Xiao Jie was taken aback, thinking what does this mean? Of course, he wanted them.

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Of course I do, why are you asking?

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use: The guild leader told me before that if you’re willing to formally join the Dragon Soaring Knights and become one of our ’own people’, the guild is willing to pay for those two cores for you, otherwise you’ll have to bid for them with your own points.

After all, these items were obtained through everyone’s life-and-death battles, and even as a leader, I can’t just give them to you for nothing.

Xiao Jie felt helpless, these guys were persistent. Was he really that enticing for them to want him to join at any cost?

But after hesitating for a moment, Xiao Jie still declined.

To wear the crown, one must bear the weight. The more benefits he accepted, the more obliged he would be when the time came to really risk life and limb. Could he go back on his word, or would he follow them to the end?

At the end of the day, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. The three cores he had before could be considered an advance on fees for intel, but freeloading like this forever meant getting trapped eventually.

He didn’t want to be so tightly bound; he could join the fight, but he had to maintain his autonomy.

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Haha, no need to be so polite, I’ll bid with my own points. After all, the item was obtained through everyone’s concerted efforts. Even if the guild pays, it doesn’t feel quite right.

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use: Alright, I respect your choice.

Suddenly the blue and green equipment from the front got auctioned off quickly, mostly by outer members, because the point tyrants were eyeing the better stuff at the back. The prices for the earlier blue and green equipment were very low, base bidding around twenty or thirty points could get you an item, there was even a piece that went for the low bid of 10 points, which was a real bargain.
