Chapter 600: The saber is gone
Since old w.a.n.g was already here, he was not in a hurry to leave.
The Grandmaster"s banquet on the 8th was not only Fang Ping"s banquet, but also a divine weapon auction.
This time, he would also auction some.
He had left 10 divine weapons with Fang ping. As for Zhang Tao, he would at least give him some. He would not be like Yao Chengjun, who gave them all away.
Old Yao was in that school because the first military school was powerful. It was under the jurisdiction of both the military and the Education Department, so they were allocated more resources each year.
Old w.a.n.g did not have the same confidence as him, to at least exchange for some resources for nmau.
As for li Hansong ... Fang ping had also decided to auction a few of them for him.
Fang ping did not care whether li Hansong would give the proceeds from the auction to ccmau or for his own use.
……
It was August on the second day of w.a.n.g Jinyang"s arrival.
On August 1st, the martial arts a.s.sociation finally updated the list!
……
This time, there were some changes to the ranking list of various grades.
The rank-6 ranking list had the biggest change.
"Li Hansong, 22 years old, mcmau instructor, graduated from capital City Martial Arts university.
[Rarity: essence-blood unity realm]
[Battle record: mentality-vitality fusion in killing]
[Rank: 3rd]
[t.i.tle: Iron Fist King Kong]
……”
"w.a.n.g Jinyang, 21 years old, nmau martial arts Society President, Nanjiang"s Deputy Governor ...
[Rarity: mentality-vitality fusion]
……
[Ranking: 4th]
[t.i.tle: Blood G.o.d of War]
……”
"Luo Yichuan, 55 years old, mcmau"s war finger College"s Dean.
[Rarity: mentality-vitality fusion]
……
[Rank: 10th]
[t.i.tle: Luo Yiqiang]
……”
"Zhang Jianhong, 62 years old, mcmau school of weaponry"s Vice President.
[Rarity: mentality-vitality fusion]
[Rank: 18th]
……”
"Xu Gecheng, 71 years old, previously the Vice Dean of mcmau"s school of weaponry, and master of Luo Yichuan.
[Rank: peak of rank six]
[Ranking: 32nd]
……”
"Chen Zhenhua, 64 years old, Dean of mcmau"s Inst.i.tute of Civil Affairs.
[Rank: peak of rank six]
[Ranking: 66th]
……”
In the rank-6 ranking list, mcmau, including li Hansong, had a total of 5 people on the list!
Xu Gecheng was the peak rank-6 powerhouse who had recovered that day. He was a martial artist of the same generation as the old Vice-Chancellor, and also an old man of mcmau.
However, after the battle more than ten years ago, he almost died. Now, he was already in his 70s, but he was still old and strong.
As soon as he recovered from his injuries, he immediately entered the list.
On the other hand, Zhang Jianhong was the rank-6 powerhouse who had been in charge of Magic city"s catacombs previously. This time, he was also the new powerhouse in the mentality-vitality fusion realm who had emerged in Magic City after Luo Yichuan.
In the list of 100 people, 5 people from mcmau were in the list, and two of them were in the top 10. It was shocking.
Including li Hansong, mcmau now had three powerhouses in the mentality-vitality fusion realm. This was actually the Grandmaster"s reserve. The two-digit number of mcmau grandmasters that Fang ping had mentioned in the past seemed to be very close.
The rank-6 ranking list changed, and so did the rank-7.
In the rank-7 ranking, Sino nation had 320 people previously. Recently, there were actually people in the mentality-vitality fusion realm who had broken through to Grandmaster. However, there were still 320 people at the moment.
It was not that someone had achieved rank-8, but after the update this time, the names of a few grandmasters had disappeared from the list.
In the battle of Tiannan, many grandmasters died in battle. Even rank-9s had fallen.
Previously, they were worried that the changes would be too big and cause an accident, so they had not made any changes.
This time, taking advantage of the fact that many people had broken through to rank-7, the names of these grandmasters disappeared from the ranking list without a trace after it was updated.
The rank-7 ranking list.
Mcmau"s ranking was as follows:
[Liu polu: 12th in China]
[Huang Jing: 95th in China]
Tang Feng, 140th
Lu fengrou, 170th place
As for Fang ping ...
"Fang ping, 20 years old, mcmau martial arts Society President, University Council Secretary-General ...
[Rank: middle-stage rank-7]
[Ranking: 171st]
[t.i.tle: mad general]
……”
Yes, the mad general!
The saber was gone!
Since a certain someone didn"t like the t.i.tle of frenzied sword, the martial arts a.s.sociation felt that it was necessary to give him a name, so they would just save one word for him.
Was Fang ping crazy?
It was very arrogant!
This guy had threatened the martial arts a.s.sociation a few times, and he was arrogant.
He"s so arrogant even when he"s hosting a Grandmaster"s banquet. His saber technique seems to be just so-so, let"s forget about the violent saber. The word "violent" is just right.
"If you"re not a rank-8, you can"t be called a King.
As for whether "Mad King" was unpleasant to hear and whether it would be mistaken as "arrogant" at rank-8, that had nothing to do with everyone.
……
Mcmau.
When Fang ping saw the new ranking list, he was not angry at all. His face was calm.
Qin Fengqing, who was pestering him, was a little surprised. He asked,""General Kuang, you like it?"
"I don"t like it."
"Then why didn"t you call them and give them a good scolding?"
"There"s no need for that. "
Fang Ping"s face was calm. He laughed and said, "Isn"t the 8th coming soon? "A rank-8 President is not easy to deal with, but a rank-7 Vice President ... You"d better be careful."
Qin Fengqing understood. He then sighed and said,"I can"t be bothered to get angry. It"s boring."
Old Qin was very miserable!
Ever since he achieved rank-4, he had not been on the list even once.
Every time the rankings were updated, he was always at the bottom.
When he became stronger, the list would be updated again ... And he would have a breakthrough.
If he had not broken through to rank-6 a few days ago, perhaps he could have made it onto the rank-5 ranking list this time, and even be ranked higher. However, now that he had just entered rank-6, how could he be on the list?
Qin Fengqing did not care about this now. It did not matter if he did not make it into the ranking once when he was in the middle ranks. When he reached rank-7, no matter how weak he was, he would still be able to make it into the ranking.
Who would care about the present!
He didn"t care about his own business and laughed,""Then what do you think about ranking 171?"
On the rank-7 ranking list, even if middle-stage rank-7 martial artists did not have divine weapons or other means, their ranking would be about this level.
Lu fengrou and Tang Feng were both early-stage rank-7, with rank-7 divine weapons in their hands. Their rankings were higher than Fang ping "s.
Huang Jing"s combat strength was probably not as good as Fang ping "s, and he had even entered the top 100.
Fang Ping"s ranking seemed to be slightly lower.
Fang ping was not surprised by this. He pointed at the list and said,"Who do you think is the one above me?"
Qin Fengqing did not pay much attention to it before, but when he looked at it ... He immediately laughed and said,""Understood!"
Lu fengrou was in the 170th place. That was normal.
It wasn"t that a student couldn"t surpa.s.s their teacher. Luo Yichuan"s ranking was higher than Xu Gecheng "s.
Most importantly, someone had given them a heads up. The martial arts a.s.sociation felt that they could not afford to offend the rank-9 Snake King, but Fang ping, this young man, was nothing.
Your own teacher asked for it, we"re just cooperating.
"Yao Chengjun is ranked 280th. Not bad. He has surpa.s.sed many people even though he has just entered rank-7 ..."
"The martial arts a.s.sociation has underestimated him."
Fang ping laughed."Old Yao"s mentality is not weak. It"s at least 1500hz. That"s not the point. That guy has an ancient divine weapon. He"s very strong! That divine weapon was specifically targeted at mentality. With one thrust, he tore apart the materialization of an early-stage rank-7 martial artist.
"However, old Yao is very low-key. His combat strength is definitely not weaker than the average middle-stage rank-7.
It was difficult for a middle-stage rank-7 to kill an early-stage rank-7, but it was easy for him to kill it. The big lion was most likely not his match.
"Of course, it"s hard to say. The big lion has killed countless people and has many tricks up his sleeve. Previously, in Tiannan"s catacombs, he had also killed an early-stage rank-7 martial artist ...
However, if old Yao were to rank, he should be ranked higher than my teacher. "
This time, when the rankings were updated, not only did Fang ping and Yao Chengjun enter the rankings, but they were also not at the bottom. In fact, it still shocked many people.
Fang ping, in particular, was ranked 171st. He was considered to be in the middle when there were still 320 rank-7 Grandmasters in Sino nation.
Li Hansong and w.a.n.g Jinyang were on the rank-6 ranking list, and they were ranked near the front. It was only then that many people knew that the two of them had actually achieved mentality-vitality fusion.
After the two of them left the catacombs, they were about to seal off their spirit gates. This time, Fang ping really did not help. Iron head had also broken through on his own at ccmau.
After a few simple words about the ranking list, Fang ping completely ignored the word "crazy general."
He would deal with them sooner or later!
As for Ironhead"s "Iron Fist diamond", Fang ping felt that it suited Ironhead quite well. Should he just call it "Ironhead"?
Fang ping did not pay much attention to his own situation. Instead, he looked at the rank-8 and 9 rankings for a while.
Very quickly, Fang ping found a newcomer on the rank-9 ranking list!
"Fist King Tian Mu, rank-9, 36th place."
The rank-9 ranking list had another person added, reaching 36. In fact, axe had fallen, but rank-9s could not be touched lightly, and his name had not been removed.
Tian MU"s breakthrough was not like Wu kuishan "s, where he rose by many ranks. Instead, he hung at the last place of rank-9.
Even so, a rank-9 was still a rank-9. The addition of a new rank-9 Grandmaster still caused countless heated discussions.
Fang ping did not plan to continue watching, but when he saw "rank-9, 7th place, Wu Chuan ..."
Seeing this, Fang ping was still stunned for a moment.
Wu Chuan had gone from ninth to seventh?
In rank-9, those who ranked higher would not move.
The top four were four paragons.
Nan yunyue was in fifth place, and Zhang Weiyu was in sixth.
Fang ping did not expect Wu Chuan to go up two places to 7th place.
"Old Wu ... Did he get a rank-9 magic weapon?"
If that was not the case, Fang ping did not think that Wu Chuan"s ranking would have risen. Fang ping had seen Zhao xingwu, who was previously ranked 8th and now ranked 9th.
He beat up gigantic Willow City Lord like he was beating up his son.
It was a little difficult for Wu Chuan to beat up the other party.
At that time, Zhao xingwu was definitely stronger than Wu Chuan.
He did not expect Wu Chuan to overtake Zhao xingwu.
Thinking of this, Fang ping immediately checked the global ranking. As expected, Wu Chuan"s ranking had risen by a lot.
Previously, Wu Chuan was ranked 98th in the world of rank-9, Zhao xingwu 48th and Zhang Weiyu 18th.
Now, Wu Chuan had surpa.s.sed many people and was ranked 22nd in the world.
"I"ve definitely gotten a rank-9 magic weapon! Could it be the sword I brought back last time?"
Fang ping felt that the possibility of this was very high.
"Old Wu has really risen to prominence!"
In the past, Fang ping had always felt that Wu Chuan had embarra.s.sed The Guardian and the big shots of the three ministries and four residences.
There was no other reason. The seven leaders of the three ministries and four prefectures, as well as the other six who were in the top six, were all in the top 20 of the global rankings.
Only Wu Chuan was embarra.s.sed.
But now, Wu Chuan had risen!
"I didn"t expect that a divine weapon would bring about such a big change."
"In that case, old Wu should be thanking himself. If it wasn"t for him, he might not have had the chance to get a rank-9 divine weapon ... No, he definitely wouldn"t have had the chance.
However, did he exchange for this divine weapon or did the government give it to him?"
Fang ping was a little suspicious. Wu Chuan, that pauper, had been using rank-7 divine weapons all this while. Did he have the money to exchange for a rank-9 divine weapon?
Without thinking further, Fang ping stood up to leave.
Once he got up, Qin Fengqing followed suit. Fang Ping"s face was filled with black lines. This b.a.s.t.a.r.d had been following him for the past few days. Wherever he went, Qin Fengqing would follow!
How annoying!
Qin Fengqing did not utter a word. When he saw Fang ping looking at him, he smiled and said,"If there"s anything you need help with, come find me! Not to mention anything else, I"m definitely not a problem helping you run errands!"
"Have you heard of this saying before?"
"I understand, I understand."
Qin Fengqing chuckled and said,"I understand that I don"t deserve a reward." If you don"t pay, there"s no return. Don"t worry, I"m already prepared. "
After saying that, Qin Fengqing handed over a doc.u.ment.
Fang ping had thought that this guy had struck it rich again and was using money to exchange for it.
However, when he opened it ... Fang Ping"s face was dark!
"Selling myself for 300 years!"
Fang Ping"s teeth hurt when he said this!
Qin Fengqing was really something!
He really dared to think!
Can you F * cking live to 300 years old?
He actually wanted to change the 100-year contract to 300 years!
Qin Fengqing"s face was full of smiles."When I"m stronger, it won"t be difficult to live another 200 years. Fang ping, if I don"t die, you"ll have earned big!
"If you help me advance to peak rank-6, I"ll be amazing when I enter rank-7!
"Think about it. When you"re a high-ranked, how much do you earn a year working for you?
I"ll work for you for free for 300 years ..."
Fang ping was speechless."There"s no need. I think even 100 years is too long."
Qin Fengqing was helpless and a little sad. "I have nothing to sell!"
Fang ping saw him scratching his ears and cheeks. He thought for a moment and said,"Rank-6, I can indeed help people improve, but the price I have to pay is beyond your imagination! "You"re a martial artist too. You should understand what it means to seal your Sanjiao gate quickly.
"You can"t afford to pay the price. There are so many rank-6s in the world, and mcmau has quite a few of them. Why should I help you ..."
Fang ping waved his hand and interrupted Qin Fengqing. He said seriously,"Forget it if you"re trying to get close. To be honest, you"ve not contributed much to mcmau. Even if I want to help, I should help the other instructors.
Instructor Bai Ruoxi and instructor song yingji, which one of them did not contribute more than you?
Qin Fengqing, ask yourself, what about you?
"Of course, you were still a student before, so I didn"t expect you to do anything.
"However, you"re mcmau"s instructor now. Tell me, have you done your duty as an instructor?"
Qin Fengqing was a little troubled. He thought for a while and said,"Then give me a standard. If you don"t tell me and you don"t let me teach the students, how would I know what I should do?"
"I won"t make things difficult for you. This time, if mcmau really wants to go to war with Sky Gate City, we"ll implement the merit system!
He didn"t care about the gains.
The merit points of the merit system are human heads!"
Fang Ping"s expression was solemn,"the enemy"s head, the martial artist"s head!" The head of a military martial artist! A rank-4 was 100, a rank-5 was 1000, and a rank-6 was 10000 merit points!
"If you want me to help you increase your cultivation level, it"s simple. I"ll just seal a door. The requirements aren"t high. I"ll exchange it for 50000 merit points!
Also, I won"t give you an advance, you go kill the enemy yourself!
I"ll help you however many you kill and how many merit points you get.
"If you kill 15 rank-6s, I"ll help you close your Sanjiao gate. That"ll only be 15 rank-6s or 150 rank-5s ..."
" 15 rank-6 ..."
Qin Fengqing"s expression changed slightly. He had only just entered rank-6.
It wasn"t easy to kill even one of those at the same cultivation level.
15 meant 15 life-and-death battles. The slightest mistake would cost him his life.
"As for the 150 rank-5s ... When the time comes for a great battle, where would there be so many rank-4s and 5s for him to kill?
"Alright!"
The next moment, Qin Fengqing gritted his teeth and said,"you said it. It"s only 15 rank-6S. Just wait and see. This time, I promise to kill enough of them!" By the way, what happens if I kill a rank-7?"
"Don"t go crazy, you"re looking for death. "
Fang ping shook his head and said,"I"ll give you 50000 merit points for mentality-vitality fusion. It"s enough for you to kill three of them." But I don"t think you should count on that. You"re just looking for death.
"You might be able to escape from a peak rank-6, but if you encounter mentality-vitality fusion, you"ll definitely die!
"You"ll still have to focus on killing early-stage rank-5 or rank-6. It"ll be difficult even for middle-stage rank-6. "
At this point, Fang ping laughed."The cultivation of martial arts still depends on yourself. You, Qin Fengqing, understand this principle better than me. As for w.a.n.g Jinyang and the others ... To put it bluntly, they"re worth investing in more than you. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood!"
Qin Fengqing did not mind. He chuckled and said,"You don"t need to say so much to me. I was anxious before. "Now that you"ve given me the standard, things will be easier. Even if a big war doesn"t break out, I"ll still go down to the catacombs and kill 15 of them. Does this count?"
"It counts!"
"That"s good. "
"Then I"ll go to the catacombs now and kill five first ..." Qin Fengqing suddenly laughed.
Fang ping frowned."It"s best not to. The war will start at any time. If you go in now and fall into the catacombs, the war won"t wait for you. If you miss the war this time ... Are you sure you won"t regret it?"
Once he said that, Qin Fengqing"s expression changed slightly. He nodded and said,""I know. Alright, I"ll take my leave first!"
This guy did not stay. Since Fang ping had given him a reply, there was no point in pestering him.
"It"s just 15 rank-6s, right? just kill them!
……
After Qin Fengqing left, Fang ping started to get busy.
Fang ping patrolled the school"s pill and weapon production lines, urging them to work overtime.
A large number of weapons and pills were continuously sent into the warehouse.
The ordinary students were still looking forward to the grandmasters "banquet, but some of the middle-ranked students and instructors had already felt the tense atmosphere.
A great battle was about to begin!
As for Magic City, in the next few days, there were more and more martial artists and powerhouses.
Even if many people didn"t receive an invitation, they were willing to come and join in the fun. Even if they couldn"t enter, it didn"t matter. It was good to watch the fun from the outside.
In the past few days, grandmasters had been coming to Shanghai every day.
As the 8th approached, many people did a rough count and realized that there were already more than 100 grandmasters in Shanghai!
"In Sino nation, there are 320 rank-7s, 95 rank-8s, and 36 rank-9s.
There were a total of 451 people!
In fact, some of the lists could be removed. In the battle of Tiannan, other than Saturn city, Sino nation had lost 21 rank-7 and 8 grandmasters and one rank-9.
Now, only a few rank-7s had been removed from the rank-7 list, and rank-8s had barely moved.
There were only slightly more than 430 people still alive on the list.
As for the hidden experts from the various tribes, there were actually many experts who were not on the list in Star Town City.
The Wu an Army had a Regiment of 1000 people, and each Regiment had a Grandmaster. There were about 40 grandmasters, but only about ten of them were actually on the list. The rest were not on the list.
In any case, the only people ordinary martial artists knew were the grandmasters on the list.
A quarter of the 400-odd Chinese powerhouses were here!
It wasn"t even the last day yet, but many people were stunned when they saw the list circulating on the internet.
For a martial artist to have reached Fang Ping"s level, it had to be said that, in the eyes of many, he had already reached the peak of his life.
Fang ping was not surprised by this result.
Many people did not come for him, but for the divine weapon auction that was about to start.
More than half of these grandmasters didn"t have divine weapons. Now that they had such a rare opportunity, it would be good to see it.
Under Chen Yunxi"s leaders.h.i.+p, the martial arts Society was still preparing for the Grandmaster"s banquet.
Fang ping, on the other hand, had slacked off for a few days after he was done with the preparations for the battle.
On the 7th of August, Fang ping held a student meeting and did not allow the instructors to attend.
……
7th of August.
Field 1.
Thousands of students gathered.
The students below the stage looked at Fang ping, who was on the stage. Fang ping did not go on and on like he usually did.
When everyone was here, Fang ping pointed to a side where armors and leather armors were piled up, saying,"Students of upper-stage rank-3 and above will each receive a set of battle armor! To receive an armor of the same level as his own!
At tomorrow"s banquet, everyone will be dressed in armor to welcome the guests!
"These armors are mcmau"s many years of acc.u.mulation. It"s all of mcmau"s acc.u.mulation!
"All these years, we"ve killed quite a number of monstrous beasts, but we can"t bring back many. In order to create a set of fitting battle armor for everyone, mcmau"s many years of monstrous beast fur reserves have been completely exhausted!
"For middle and low-ranked martial artists, the effect of battle armor is still very good for defense!"
After saying that, Fang ping waved his hand and said,"each of you, go get a set, put it on, and see how it goes."
Some people were confused, some were envious, and some were slightly nervous.
It was a rare scene for the school to give out Warframes for free!
It was more than rare, it was almost impossible.
There were very few things that humans could bring back from killing demons.
"Mcmau has been established for so many years, yet we"ve only produced about 500 sets of middle-ranked leather armor. There are quite a few lower-rank-3 leather armors, thousands of them.
But this time, he had used up all his reserves and brought them all out.
Some people had already guessed what this meant.
Fang ping did not say a word. He watched as everyone received and put on their armors silently.
With armors on their bodies, these young students had a bit more of a vigorous aura.
"Almost all martial artists above upper-stage rank-3 have gone into the catacombs and killed before.
At this moment, the aura of each armor suddenly rose.
……
At the same time.
On the roof of a school building.
The grandmasters looked at the students below and fell into silence.
After a long time, Huang Jing sighed softly and said,"the students are still young ..."
Tang Feng said in a deep voice,"we"ll still have to go through some storms. The Education Department and the military department have already given their feedback. We can fight!"
Although the details would have to wait for Zhang Tao to come tomorrow, the word "capable" meant that the war was really about to begin.
Wu kuishan said slowly,"our middle and high-ranked martial artists are not fewer than Sky Gate City "s. We have more!
"Whether the low-ranked martial artists will partic.i.p.ate in the battle or not ... This is not confirmed yet. We"ll discuss it again when the specific results are out."
"Mcmau has never fought a large-scale group battle! "In the future, there will be a lot of such Wars. Unless it"s the high ranks, the middle and low-ranks will still fight as a group.
This time, beating up the half-crippled Sky Gate City could also be considered a form of training!
"We"ve made a name for ourselves in this battle. If we win the war and eliminate mcmau"s greatest enemy, then everyone in mcmau will be at their peak!
"Now, I"ve prepared everything I can. Since I"ve entered a martial arts university, I can"t really cultivate until I"m a high-ranked before I fight, can I?"
Tang Feng was the one who said that.
This had always been his idea!
He had no objection to those below rank-3 not having the ability to protect themselves and not partic.i.p.ating in the war.
"But now, there are more than a thousand upper-stage rank-3 martial artists in mcmau!
This didn"t even include the instructors!
Back when Fang ping entered the catacombs as an upper-stage rank-3, Fang ping refused to go out alone to hunt the catacombs martial artists. Even Tang Feng despised him.
In the past year, because Fang ping had brought back a large amount of resources, many martial artists had not entered the catacombs once or twice even when they had reached rank-3 or 4. This was almost impossible in the past.
"The catacombs madman Qin Fengqing has at least 30 catacombs entries below rank-3!
It was only right for each generation to be stronger than the last. There was no such thing as a weaker generation.
"Rank-3 and rank-4 already. In a situation where even the high ranks are being held back, Tang Feng felt that there"s no need to hesitate. The military department started fighting when they were rank-1, but they did not hesitate at all.
"Although martial arts university students are geniuses, martial arts universities can"t afford to raise them. They can"t wait until they"ve achieved rank-6 before they fight.
That was the treatment of a descendant of a Paragon!
The others did not speak again. In this world, no one was more respected than the other. They were rank-3 and had entered the catacombs, but Fang ping and some of the others were rank-2 and had already entered the catacombs.
"There"s no reason for rank-3 and rank-4 not to go either.
