Chapter 206: Surging Contribution Points

Lu Yu had absolutely no idea that just a few hours before he returned with his first prey, the exclusive group for In-Jin Martial Artists of the Association had already been hit like a bombshell, instantly erupting into chaos.

"My heavens! Am I seeing things? That Martial Artist from the Chang'an City Branch, his Contribution Points actually rose again? And it jumped to 10 million all at once?" a Martial Artist named Zhao Shan exclaimed loudly in the group.

"What did you say? Ten million?"

"Are you kidding me? How is that possible!"

"If I'm lying to you, I'm a grandson. If you don't believe me, go take a look for yourselves," Zhao Shan said with absolute certainty.

"No need for you to say it, I've already taken a screenshot." As soon as the words fell, someone sent an image into the group.

In the image, Lu Yu, relying on his 10 million Contribution Points, was like a dark horse, leaping directly from fourth place to second, leaving the original second and third place far behind.

At the same time, the number of Advanced Fierce Beasts he had hunted had also changed from 2 to 3.

In an instant, everyone in the group who noticed this situation was stunned into speechlessness.

"If I remember correctly, he only hunted two Advanced Fierce Beasts this morning, right? Only a few hours have passed, and he actually hunted another one?"

"I'm just wondering, in the time it took to eat lunch, how did his Contribution Points suddenly jump by 2.5 million?"

"This Lu Yu, is he too terrifying?"

Someone couldn't help but raise a question: "Big shot Wu Jin's Contribution Points are not even 12 million yet. This Lu Yu soared to 10 million points in less than a day. Do you think he might push Wu Jin off the throne of first place?"

Once these words were spoken, the entire group became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

"Maybe there really is such a possibility. Although Wu Jin's team is powerful, they can't manage to kill an Advanced Fierce Beast every single day.

Where on earth did this Lu Yu, such a formidable character, pop out from to be able to hunt three in one day?

Even if you pulled out all the Martial Artists from the Chang'an City Branch, I'm afraid they wouldn't reach this level, right?"

"Yeah, I previously suspected whether the Chang'an City Branch was counting all the credit on one person's head, but now it seems that possibility is indeed not very likely."

"Indeed, if they really had that ability, they wouldn't have been at the bottom of the rankings for two consecutive years."

Who could have guessed that several Martial Artists from the Chang'an City Branch were also silently lurking in the group at this moment, and seeing these remarks, they were all so angry they were fuming.

"These guys, aren't they too infuriating?" Kang Yuan said, grinding his teeth in anger.

"Isn't what they said the truth?" Peng Hao muttered in a low voice.

"Peng Hao, whose side are you on? Why are you helping people from other branches talk?"

"Exactly, aren't you just boosting others' morale and destroying our own ambition!" the Yang brothers also accused him angrily.

"Hey, stop arguing, all of you." Chang Lei hurriedly stepped in to smooth things over, "Look at it from another angle, this can also be considered clarifying the misunderstanding, right?"

"Look quickly, the rankings have changed again," Jiang Yao said, pointing at the big screen in front of them.

Several people hurriedly looked up.

They saw that the first-ranked Wu Jin's Contribution Points suddenly surged by 3.5 million, quickly approaching 16 million points.

The 2 million gap that originally existed between him and second place was suddenly widened to nearly 4 million.

"It seems that it's not just Lu Yu who is striving to catch up; others are also desperately trying to widen the gap," Chang Lei said with emotion.

"Hmph, one look and you know that the Martial Artist team Wu Jin is in must have concentrated all the Contribution Points onto him alone," Kang Yuan said, his face full of resentment.

"Sigh, this kind of thing, one is willing to give and the other is willing to take, the Association can't interfere."

"Yeah, and I don't know if Lu Yu can catch up."

Others in the group also noticed this change.

Unlike the anger of the people from the Chang'an City Branch, most people were instead extremely excited.

"Look quickly, big shot Wu Jin's Contribution Points are almost at 16 million!"

"Wow, a 6 million Contribution Point gap. That guy would have to kill two more Advanced Fierce Beasts to catch up. Two Advanced Fierce Beasts! That's not a small number!"

"Two? I think if he can hunt one more in these two days, he should be thanking the heavens. Do you really think Advanced Fierce Beasts are like roadside cabbage, so easy to hunt?"

"Look, Wang Yue's ranking has also risen!"

Someone posted a screenshot to the group.

They saw that Wang Yue, who was originally in third place with only 9 million Contribution Points, had suddenly jumped to 12 million, leaping directly into second place.

And the original second place, Lu Yu, was pushed down to third.

"Oh my, what's the situation? Did Wang Yue have a big harvest too?"

"Probably the same as Wu Jin's team, giving all the team's Contribution Points to one person, right?"

"It's clear that everyone is fighting against time."

Everyone stared nervously at the changes in the rankings, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Although Wang Yue is now in second place, compared to the first-ranked Wu Jin, the gap is still very obvious.

Unless he can hunt an Advanced Fierce Beast every day for the next two days, it will be very difficult to catch up to Wu Jin.

Furthermore, the strength of Wu Jin's team cannot be underestimated.

As far as the current situation is concerned, who will end up in first place seems to have already begun to show signs.

"I wonder if Jiang Xiong's Contribution Points can be raised a bit more," someone said.

"It shouldn't be a problem. Wu Jin and Lu Yu both have harvests, so Jiang Xiong and his group definitely won't sit idly by. Just wait and see, it won't be long before his Contribution Points will definitely rise."

"That's right, that's right," many people echoed.

Although no one said it explicitly, in their hearts, they actually didn't really want Lu Yu to rush into the top three.

As for the reason, perhaps it was just an inexplicable feeling of annoyance.

Ten minutes passed, twenty minutes passed, half an hour passed... there was still no change in the top of the list.

This was also within reason; after all, when Martial Artists go out to hunt Advanced Fierce Beasts, they usually only have a chance every two or three days.

Encountering an Advanced Fierce Beast is easy enough, but successfully hunting one depends entirely on luck.

If luck is bad, not only will you fail to kill the beast, but there might even be casualties on your own side.

In the blink of an eye, another ten or twenty minutes passed.

The people in the group chat were chatting idly.

"It changed! It changed!" Suddenly, these few words popped up in the group. Just as everyone was confused, a screenshot appeared in the group.

Everyone hurriedly fixed their eyes on it and couldn't help but gasp.

They saw that the Contribution Points of Lu Yu, who was originally ranked third, had actually risen again, reaching 13 million!

In an instant, he returned to the second-place position, while Wang Yue, who was originally in second place, was pushed down to third.

The Contribution Points of Jiang Xiong, who was in fourth place, remained unchanged.
