Chapter 1496: The Whole World Watches! Overwhelmingly Dominant Score Ranking!

Xu Jingming merely stood there, no deliberate aura radiating from his body.

Yet he seemed to carry his own halo, becoming the absolute focus of the entire platform.

Glimpses of awe, reverence, envy, jealousy, and admiration wove together upon him.

"We all came from the Genius War—how come I'm still Star Level One, while Xu Jingming is already Star Peak?"

"This is insane—how can you even compare?"

"Unbelievable! He can now slay Cosmic-class beast beasts—we're not even on the same level!"

"......"

Within the Eternal Star Alliance's team, murmurs erupted loudly.

Especially among the newcomers who had only just broken through to Star Level after the Genius War—their tones brimmed with shock and admiration.

Indeed, the gap was simply too vast.

So vast it made them question their very lives.

Xu Jingming, the object of all eyes, remained expressionless.

The relentless, high-intensity hunting over the past month had granted him a massive accumulation of Source Points.

His Star Peak strength had been further tempered in life-or-death battles, his aura growing deeper and more contained.

Like a peerless divine blade sheathed in its scabbard.

At this moment, he was reviewing the system panel in his mind.

【Name】: Xu Jingming

【Level】: Star Peak

【Ability】: Annihilation Doushen Shenlei (T2)

【Physique】: 945.37 billion Qi (+)

【Spirit】: 722.83 billion Hz (+)

【Skills】: Spear Intent (Intermediate+), Heaven's Thunder Wings (T2, Perfect), Lei Guang Annihilation Cannon (T4, Perfect)......

【Body Cultivation】: Star Core Lei Gang Body (T0, First Stage +)

【Spirit Cultivation】: Star Core Meditation Method (T7, Ninth Stage)

【Origin】: Thunder Origin (First Stage +), Destruction Origin (First Stage)

【Gene】: Source Core Secret Scripture (First Stage)

【Bloodline】: Thunder Prison Demon (Zi Yan Mo Dian T0, Fourth Stage +)

【Source Points】: 630 million

The killing over the last month was insane!

It directly pushed his previously depleted Source Points up to 630 million!

Zi Yan Mo Dian, Body Cultivation, and Thunder Origin were all ready for point allocation.

"Two choices: hoard Source Points to break through to Cosmic Level.

Or invest points into other options first......"

Xu Jingming silently pondered.

After a brief thought, he quickly made his decision.

Hoard Source Points and break through to Cosmic Level as fast as possible!

"Level is the absolute priority.

Once I break through to Cosmic Level, my life tier will ascend.

My lifespan will rise from one million years to ten million years!"

In terms of age, Xu Jingming was only twenty-nine.

Not to mention ten million years—even one million years was an enormous number to him.

Yet he certainly wouldn't complain about having too long a lifespan.

Moreover, once he broke through to Cosmic Level,

his strength would reach an entirely new level!

Then, hunting Cosmic-class alien races would let him accumulate Source Points even faster.

"Captain, congratulations!

Not only did you reach Star Peak, but you also won the beauty's heart.

Yue Ying, congratulations too—you've finally gotten what you wanted."

At this moment, Yan Ji, Bess, and Lan Yu arrived.

Leading them, Yan Ji grinned and stepped closer, teasing.

"Star Peak!

Sweeping aside all prodigies, even slaying Cosmic-class beast beasts.

Boss, you're incredible!"

Lan Yu admired Xu Jingming utterly.

When he saw Xu Jingming defeat Chi Huang in the elimination rest room, he was stunned speechless!

Not to mention the later domination over the Prodigies of the God-Slaying Martial Temple and the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance—he regarded him as a being from another world!

"You're here."

Xu Jingming, closing his system panel, smiled and greeted them.

Yue Ying, standing gracefully beside him, blushed slightly at Yan Ji's teasing.

Besides Yan Ji and the others, members of Luo Li's squad also began arriving one by one.

And they came forward to greet Xu Jingming warmly, the atmosphere very friendly.

Xu Jingming also saw Chi Huang.

But the fellow glanced over this way, then immediately looked away.

It seemed he was truly afraid, lacking even the courage to look this way again.

Xu Jingming didn't care.

From the moment he broke through to Star Peak.

Chi Huang had already become a roadside worm, unworthy of further attention.

Another half hour passed, and at the front of the alloy platform, the four Immortal Gods reappeared.

Ye Li, Aiden, Ross, and Colt stood at the front.

Aiden, Ross, and Colt's expressions had improved greatly since a month ago.

Though their aura was still far weaker than their peak, they could now manage affairs.

The Radiance Sovereign did not appear, leaving many contestants disappointed who had hoped to witness the Supreme Sovereign's majesty.

But the contestants quickly turned their gazes to Ye Li at the front.

"It's Lady Ye Li!"

"Lady Ye Li, a Immortal Realm cultivator, directly challenged a Sovereign Realm! She's truly outdone herself this time!"

"Who can deny it? And she's so beautiful too."

"......"

Thanks to her outstanding looks and figure, Ye Li's popularity within the Eternal Star Alliance was never low.

Her display of extraordinary power this time attracted a large wave of new fans.

Even many from the God-Slaying Martial Temple and the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance were among them.

Only Ye Li still wore her cold, moonlike demeanor.

Dressed in a simple black robe, her figure slender and graceful.

She stepped forward, her cold gaze sweeping over the dense crowd below, and the entire platform fell instantly silent.

"This year's Tripartite Joint Demon Hunting Competition has lasted one year.

Though setbacks occurred midway, overall it proceeded smoothly."

Ye Li's cold voice clearly reached every ear: "Now, I announce the final rankings."

Whoosh—

A holographic projection screen unfolded above the platform.

Enormous, displaying the final score leaderboard.

Individual Score Ranking:

First Place: Xu Jingming (Eternal Star Alliance), Score:

Second Place: Luo Li (Eternal Star Alliance), Score:

Third Place: Louis (God-Slaying Martial Temple), Score:

Xu Jingming's score, at a terrifying 3.44 million, led by an unmatchable margin!

More than twenty times higher than second-place Luo Li!

Nearly forty times higher than third and fourth place!

This gap could no longer be called a lead—it was an absolute, crushing domination!

"3.44 million points!"

"The Eternal Star Alliance was carried to victory by Xu Jingming alone!"

"Indeed, his power is utterly despair-inducing."

"......"

Though this ranking was not seen for the first time.

Yet when the number truly appeared on the screen, it still sparked a wave of murmurs and uproar across the crowd.

Countless eyes refocused on Xu Jingming, stunned into silence.

Faction Total Score Ranking:

First Place: Eternal Star Alliance, Total Score:

Second Place: God-Slaying Martial Temple, Total Score:

Third Place: Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, Total Score:

Under the overwhelming boost from Xu Jingming's individual score,

the Eternal Star Alliance's total score rose without doubt to first place, with a massive lead.

Completely washing away the shame of their previous position at the bottom of the rankings after ten thousand years!

There was no way around it—the points gained from slaying Cosmic Realm demons were simply too great.

Each one granted 500,000 points!

In the past month alone, he slew three more Cosmic Realm demons.

Including during the demon uprising, he had slain six Cosmic Realm demons total.

That's 3 million points!

Precisely because of this, he achieved such a crushing dominance in the score rankings.
