Urban Martial Arts System - Chapter 278: Hunting King
The Demon Beast Material Recovery Center was filled with human heads. Countless people lined up here, using the Demon Beast Materials to exchange for credits. However, Zhou Ping noticed that the demonic beast materials that these people used to exchange for credits were basically all demonic beast materials from the First or Second Stage of Martial Intent Transformation. As for the higher ones? Even the demonic beasts of the third stage were extremely rare, and Zhou Ping, who was at the True Qi realm, did not even notice them.
Zhou Ping’s face was filled with astonishment. This was because even those demon beasts of the First and Second Stage were common materials. They were weaker demon beasts of the same level. This kind of demonic beast material could be exchanged for very few credits. It was something that Zhou Ping couldn’t even be bothered to pick up when it was thrown on the ground.
“Why are most of these low-level demon beast materials?” Zhou Ping was confused.
Actually, this was Zhou Ping’s mistake.
Although the secret realm’s overall level was higher than that of the outside world, and there were countless experts, most of the people who came to trade demon beast materials were still martial intent cultivators. This was especially true for demon beasts, who usually had their own unique abilities. In the same realm, demon beasts were stronger than most people.
Generally speaking, to deal with a demon beast, one had to be surrounded by many people, or one who was one level above the demon beast would have to attack. As for those who were able to defeat demon beasts at the same level, in the eyes of ordinary people, they were already outstanding figures.
In the eyes of ordinary people, an existence like Zhou Ping, who was at the same level as a demon, was a monster.
Zhou Ping usually saw that the first class students were able to win against demon beasts of the same level, so he felt that others should be able to do it. However, in reality, Zhou Ping had forgotten what kind of existence was in the first class?
They were all geniuses of geniuses, geniuses that were cultivated by the entire country.
Wasn’t it bullying to compare a genius like this to an ordinary person? Not to mention the first class, even the group of people in the second class were all geniuses chosen from ordinary people!
Zhou Ping obediently stood in line at a demon beast material recovery window, waiting for the person in front to complete the trade. Fortunately, although there were many people in the Demon Beast Material Recovery Center, there were quite a few windows, so the line was not very long. Moreover, the people working at the window were extremely efficient.
Hua…
Just as Zhou Ping was waiting in line, the people in the Demon Beast Material Recovery Center suddenly burst into an uproar.
“Wow, the Hunting King is here!”
“The Hunting King has come to hand over the demon beast materials!”
“Where is he? Where is the hunting king? Let me see……”
When quite a few people heard this, they looked around. There were even a few people who didn’t even have a line, instead running over to see what the hunting king was.
“I wonder how many demon beasts you killed this time?”
“No matter how many demon beasts have been killed, they will definitely far surpass us.What I was more concerned about was that the Hunting King had once again hunted rare demon beasts?”
“That’s right. Last time, the hunting king had actually killed a Meiyan. That was a rare demon beast at the peak of the third stage of Martial Intent Transformation! It was said that the demon beast alone was worth 3,000 credits, even more than the credits I earned in three months.”
“Nonsense. If you don’t have the ability, how could you have broken into the name of hunting king.”
Zhou Ping’s ears were filled with discussions, which immediately made him curious.
“Brother, who is this Hunting King?” Patting the person in front of him, Zhou Ping asked.
“You don’t know the hunter king?” That person looked at Zhou Ping in surprise.
“You’re a newcomer, right?”
“Yes, I’m a new student of this year’s special department,” Zhou Ping said gloomily.
In the base, almost everyone would recognize Zhou Ping as a newcomer wherever he went. It was fine once or twice. After a few more times, Zhou Ping felt a little depressed every time.
“Let me tell you, this hunting king is incredible.”
When that person heard that Zhou Ping was a student of a special department, his attitude immediately became enthusiastic.
“The hunting king’s real name is Xue Lang. He is an expert at the third stage of Martial Intent Transformation. If his cultivation was only at the third stage of Martial Intent Transformation, there were many people in the base. However, there were not many people who were able to kill Demon Beasts who were also in the third stage of the Martial Intent Transformation. Do you think Xue Lang is strong?”
“Eh… Powerful, powerful,” Zhou Ping replied perfunctorily.
However, that person didn’t notice Zhou Ping’s perfunctory words in the slightest. Instead, he was even more excited.
“That Xue Lang is not only powerful, he also has the ability to capture and kill rare demon beasts. Up until now, every time he came to trade demon beast materials, he would take out some extremely rare and valuable demon beast materials. Every time, Xue Lang would get a large amount of credits. At the beginning, every time he took out those rare demon beast materials, he would trigger a tremor in the center.
“However, when Xue Lang came more times, everyone started to get used to how powerful he was. Every time Xue Lang appears, everyone is curious about what kind of rare demon beasts he can hunt. There are even some people who are willing to gamble on how many credits Xue Lang can earn this time.
“This time, Xue Lang is here again. He must have hunted an incredible demon beast. We were all waiting to broaden our horizons and take a good look at what demon beasts Xue Lang had killed. After all, although we weren’t able to kill it ourselves, it wasn’t bad for us to see it with our own eyes,” That person said a great deal in one breath, but he still refused to stop.
“Every time Xue Lang comes here, he can earn a lot of credits. Now, Xue Lang is the number one person on the credit rankings. Tsk tsk, that might… Even those at the True Qi Realm didn’t have as many credits as Xue Lang. A person at the third level of the Martial Arts Realm was actually able to suppress a person at the True Qi Realm. Speaking of which, it was admirable!”
“Credit Leaderboard? What was that? Why hadn’t I heard of it before?” Zhou Ping asked the man in confusion.
“Heh, you’re a newcomer. You’ve never heard of anything before.” After that, the person pointed at a wall in the Demon Beast Material Recovery Center.
“Have you seen that screen over there? The ranking on the credit leaderboard was displayed. This Demon Beast Material Recovery Center had a gold and martial arts building mission hall. It was specifically used to display the ranking of the credit rankings, and it was also used to motivate everyone.
“After all, in here, credits are an important part of a person’s strength. Those with low grades might not have low combat strength, but those with high grades would definitely not have low combat strength. The credit leaderboard is a leaderboard specially created by the base. It will be updated anytime.
“However, this credit ranking only shows the credits that martial artists get through missions and hunting demon beasts. Moreover, it will be cleared once every year. That’s why the credit ranking is so valuable. Most of the time, the credit ranking is viewed as a battle strength ranking,” That person carefully explained to Zhou Ping.
