The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 923 - 921: Number One in the Assessment!

Chapter 923: Chapter 921: Number One in the Assessment!

A mountain of Demon Beast corpses emitting an overwhelming stench of blood had fallen in the Sword Art Academy Arena.

It not only shocked Fang Hai.

But also Dugu Yun and Lin Baoyu.

Such a mountain of Demon Beast corpses, surely there had to be several hundred Demon Beasts!

"This this this, so many Demon Beasts!"

"My heavens!"

Many Warriors were exclaiming in shock.

Jian Ruohan, Yejian Qiu, and Longqing Feng’s pupils dilated rapidly, staring in disbelief at the mountain piled up in the center of the Sword Art Academy Arena.

The Demon Beasts presented by other Warriors, even if some were quite large, weren’t as outrageous as Lin Bai’s, who had actually stacked a mountain entirely out of Demon Beast corpses.

"Do we still need to compare?" Lin Bai asked Fang Hai with a smile.

At this moment, Fang Hai was completely dumbfounded, unable to utter a word when he heard Lin Bai.

Lin Bai couldn’t help but let out a snort of laughter, "Elder Lin Baoyu, please count them."

"Alright." After a brief moment of shock, Lin Baoyu began to check the Demon Beast corpses one by one.

It took a full quarter of an hour for Lin Baoyu to finish counting, then he announced, "Lin Bai has slain one hundred and ten Demon Beasts of the Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer, three hundred and twenty of the Fourth Layer, Human Elixir Realm Third Layer..."

"Lin Bai’s total Points exchange: 9700"

Hiss—

When Lin Baoyu burst out with "9700" Points, Lin Bai could clearly hear the sound of Warriors all around inhaling sharply.

Terrifying!

Over nine thousand Points!

At this moment, many Warriors’ eyes turned to Lin Bai, filled with shock.

"Fang Hai, do you have anything to say?" Lin Bai looked at Fang Hai and asked with a smile.

Fang Hai’s gaze was frantic, his demeanor tense, and he couldn’t articulate a single word at this moment.

Just as Fang Hai had said earlier on the Spirit Boat, the number of Demon Beasts slain naturally proved a Warrior’s strength, and whether Lin Bai had been suspected of stealing or living a petty existence.

Now with Lin Bai’s over nine thousand Points, overpowering the entire field, he was indisputably first place.

Lin Bai naturally couldn’t have possibly stayed hidden in that crevice stealing and living a petty existence while still accumulating so many Demon Beast corpses.

Seeing Fang Hai’s restless eyes, Lin Bai immediately scoffed disdainfully.

These were only part of the Demon Beast corpses in Lin Bai’s Storage Bag.

In fact, the number of Demon Beast corpses in Lin Bai’s Storage Bag was much greater than what was here.

The Demon Beast corpses in this arena were merely a third of what Lin Bai had in his Storage Bag.

Among them, the corpses of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer beasts such as Prince Longlie, Qingshan Demon, Lei Peng, Wolf King, Poisonous Bee, and others, Lin Bai had not brought out any.

Because these beasts were killed by Lin Bai after he had changed his appearance; had he brought them out, wouldn’t it have revealed everything?

Therefore, the Demon Beast corpses that Lin Bai had brought out were all around the Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer. Lin Bai had not brought out any corpses from above the Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer.

Although many Demon Beast corpses had no Demon Blood.

But this was normal.

Not just the Demon Beast corpses that Lin Bai brought out were without Demon Blood.

Many Demon Beasts presented by the Warriors at the scene had no Demon Blood either.

Because when Lin Bai had unleashed the Devouring Sword Spirit transformed into the Devouring Domain, he had drained much of the Demon Blood from numerous Demon Beasts, so now most of the Demon Beasts presented by the Warriors in the field were without Demon Blood.

This did not raise much suspicion.

Moreover, to mislead onlookers, Lin Bai had specifically selected many Demon Beasts with Demon Blood to include among them.

"1000 Points and your life, when will you give them to me?" Lin Bai curiously asked Fang Hai.

On hearing this, Fang Hai became even more panicked and finally said through gritted teeth, glaring angrily at Lin Bai, "Lin Bai, don’t push people too far!"

"Heh! Now you speak of pushing too far. Back on the Spirit Boat, you were all sharp teeth and fangs. The power of those thirty-some Demon Beasts made me so frightened that I could barely stand," Lin Bai scornfully said.

When Fang Hai heard these words, his face turned a purple-green with rage.

Back then, Fang Hai had thought that the Demon Beasts he had slain would at least place him in the top ten. He had made a point to mention the number of Demon Beast corpses in his Storage Bag in front of all the Disciples.

Now being called out by Lin Bai once more, Fang Hai felt as if an invisible slap had struck his face hard.

"This is Sword Art Academy; no killing is allowed. I won’t make things difficult for you. Hand over all your Points, and we’ll consider this matter settled, how about it?" Lin Bai said indifferently.

"Fine! I’ll give them to you!"

Fang Hai glared at Lin Bai with clenched teeth, reluctantly and resentfully transferred all his Points from his Identity Token to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai took a look and to his surprise, there were a total of 1300 points, which was a decent harvest.

This place was the Sword Art Academy Arena, and the rules of Miracle Ridge prohibit killing.

Otherwise, Lin Bai wouldn’t have let Fang Hai off so easily.

While Lin Bai and Fang Hai were arguing, Lin Baoyu calculated and announced the rankings of all the warriors slaying Demon Beasts.

Lin Baoyu declared loudly, "The first place in this newcomer assessment has been decided!"

"Without a doubt, it’s Lin Bai! With 9700 points, no one surpasses him."

"Lin Bai will receive the first place reward of this newcomer assessment, 10,000 points."

"At the same time, Lin Bai now officially graduates from the newcomer group and becomes a formal disciple of the Sword Art Academy!"

Instantly, Lin Bai was determined to be the first place.

None of the warriors present had any complaints.

After all, more than nine thousand points, that’s terrifying!

Lin Bai had also expected it.

Although previously he was recovering from his injuries, Lin Bai had listened to the points of all the warriors, then brought out a certain number of Demon Beast corpses based on his own judgment, securing the first place.

When he heard he was in first place, Lin Bai looked at Dugu Yun, his gaze seeming to ask Dugu Yun: Do you remember our agreement? The 100,000 points, when will you give them to me?

Dugu Yun smiled slightly and nodded lightly.

Lin Baoyu continued to announce the results: "Following in second place, Longqing Feng with 2250 points."

"Third place, Yejian Qiu, with 2040 points."

"Fourth place, Liu Xuan, with 1940 points."

"..."

"..."

"Tenth place, Jian Ruohan, with 1020 points."

"The top ten warriors will receive a reward of 5000 points."

Even though Jian Ruohan didn’t earn many points, he barely hung onto the tenth place and got a reward of 5000 points.

As Lin Baoyu distributed the point rewards.

The newcomer assessment officially came to an end.

Dugu Yun said, "All of you disciples have worked hard today, go back and have a good rest."

As soon as Dugu Yun finished speaking.

Liu Xuan suddenly jumped out and shouted, "Wait!"

Both Lin Baoyu and Dugu Yun curiously looked towards Liu Xuan.

"Heh! Lin Bai, haven’t you forgotten something you should tell me?" Liu Xuan said with a smug smile, staring at Lin Bai.

Upon hearing Liu Xuan’s words, Lin Bai’s face broke into a light smile.

Two months ago, after losing 10,000 points to Lin Bai, Liu Xuan’s uncle Liu Tian approached Lin Bai at his residence, asking Lin Bai to return the 10,000 points to Liu Xuan on the day of the newcomer assessment.

Not only was Lin Bai required to return the 10,000 points to Liu Xuan, but he was also asked to kneel and apologize to Liu Xuan.

If not, Liu Tian would come to find Lin Bai himself, and at that time, he would certainly take Lin Bai’s life!

All the warriors present were puzzled by Liu Xuan’s behavior.

Including Dugu Yun and Lin Baoyu, all showed a curious expression.

"I do have something to say to Liu Xuan," Lin Bai said with a light laugh.

"Then speak up, in front of all the warriors present, in front of the elders of the Sword Art Academy, in front of the Dean of the Sword Art Academy, hahaha, go on," Liu Xuan laughed triumphantly, hands on his hips, flaunting an extremely smug look that made people want to punch him.

"Well, listen carefully," Lin Bai said with a strange smile: "Liu Xuan, have you found a good spot in the graveyard yet?"

Liu Xuan was taken aback and asked, "Is that what you wanted to tell me?"

Lin Bai smiled and said, "And one more thing, tell the person behind you, I’m waiting for him!"

"If he has the guts, come find me!"

Having said that, Lin Bai turned around and walked out of the Sword Art Academy Arena.

Watching Lin Bai’s retreating figure, Liu Xuan’s eyes flashed dangerously, and he muttered under his breath with gnashing teeth, "Scum! I gave you a chance, but since you don’t appreciate it, go to hell then!"

"Just perfect, all those points on you, they’re all mine now!"

"I’m going to tell my uncle right now that you have over 30,000 points on you, such a windfall, I believe my uncle will be tempted too!"

"Wait for death!"
