Chapter 1579: Chapters 1526-1527 First Ranking Manifestation_2 Chapter 1579: Chapters 1526-1527 First Ranking Manifestation_2 Such consumption was a huge drain even for a strong cultivator with profound foundations like Yu Yiyao.
After all, every cultivator who had managed to enter the Myriad Laws Realm trials was exceptional. Each possessed unique Divine Abilities and was not so easily suppressed.
It should be noted that an incident like Wan Fayi's easy elimination of opponents at the very beginning was an anomaly. If it weren't for the fact that the supreme strong cultivator of the Path of Space had lost his edge and, more importantly, believed that Wan Fayi would spare him, thus not resisting with enough resolution and determination, Wan Fayi wouldn't have been able to kill with a single blow.
If the opponent had truly fought back desperately, even with a lesser Realm, Wan Fayi wouldn't have been able to eliminate them so easily.
Hence, that was a fluke. Every strong cultivator who had cultivated to this point had a steadfast Taoist Heart. They had prepared for a fierce battle the moment they entered the Myriad Laws Realm.
With more than three hundred thousand points, Yu Yiyao had originally thought her ranking would be quite high, but to her surprise, she was barely squeezing into the top one hundred thousand ranks.
“It really is a gathering of the strongest from the Chaotic Void of All Heavens and Myriad Realms. The competition is truly intense,” Yu Yiyao thought to herself.
The Chaos Void was teeming with hidden dragons and crouching tigers, countless strong competitors, which Yu Yiyao had known for a long time. However, she had never imagined that this time so many strong cultivators would be drawn to the trial.
With her strength, she was close enough to touch the threshold of a True Immortal, just lacking an opportunity to advance. She had originally believed she could easily squeeze into the top one hundred thousand, and even compete for a rank within the top one thousand, though it would cost a great deal.
Yet, unexpectedly, right from the start, it was this challenging. Ten days of fierce battling had gotten her over three hundred thousand points, but she was just barely squeezing into the top one hundred thousand ranks.
If it weren't for the fact that she could only see the scores of the hundred people ahead of her, Yu Yiyao would have truly wanted to see who currently ranked first.
Even though defeating those who had gathered a large number of points meant plundering their points, no one could have swiftly accumulated too many points just ten days into the competition.
Moreover, anyone capable of rapidly accumulating a large number of points from the outset was definitely no ordinary being. Such a strong cultivator, even after amassing a considerable number of points, would not be someone others could easily prey upon.
“It seems my methods are too slow. I need to take the initiative; otherwise, forget about advancing to the second round without participating in the first thousand ranks, even entering the second round isn't certain anymore,” Yu Yiyao felt a strong sense of crisis rising in her heart.
The score rankings were updated once every ten days. If she didn't continue to improve the efficiency of plundering points, there could indeed be an unexpected turn of events.
Therefore, Yu Yiyao no longer held back. She started actively seeking out opponents to plunder their points on a large scale, aiming to sprint for points in the following ten days and climb up the ranks again.
It's worth saying she truly admired the Taoist Monarch for participating in this trial, as the rules set by him ensured a tight grip over all of them–leaving no loopholes to exploit.
Take, for instance, the current ranking display; while there were prompts on how many points were obtained after defeating opponents, one had no idea where they actually stand in the rankings.
The leaderboard rankings were not updated in real-time, but once every ten days, which meant even if you were at the forefront in this round of rankings, if someone were to surpass you in the next ten days, you wouldn't have a clue. You could only witness the growth of your points, but remain oblivious to whether your opponents' points had surpassed you.
This left everybody uncomfortable, undoubtedly forcing everyone to internalize and strive harder to plunder points, to ensure their ranking wouldn't drop in the next ten days.
Especially for powerhouses like Yu Yiyao who wanted to continue climbing the ranks, they had to keep accelerating the speed of their point plundering.
And at this moment, as Yu Yiyao was striving to kill her opponents and seize their points, she harbored great resentment toward those ranked at the top, but she would never know that a fellow powerhouse from the Heterodox Alliance, Pei Xuanjing, had already ascended to the top five thousand ranks.
The number of powerful participants in the Myriad Laws Realm trials was beyond count. The ability to enter the top 100,000 and proceed to the second round of trials was already a mark of the cream of the crop in this Chaos Void. And if one could enter the top 30,000, they could be considered among the most pinnacle of powerhouses in this Chaos Void.
In the entire Heterodox Alliance, although there were quite a few participants in the Myriad Laws Realm trials, the difference between them and the powerhouses from the top immortal sects could perhaps just lie in their Divine Abilities, skills, and Magical Treasures.
Still, even so, Zhao Baiyang's expectation for these disciples was merely that only Yu Yiyao had a great chance of advancing into the top 10,000. If lucky, she might have the opportunity to try for the top 1,000, and failure would be natural because the competition for those top 1,000 ranks was too fierce. The only possibility for Yu Yiyao to progress would be if some powerhouses were unwilling to reveal their true power and gave up on competing.
However, now, from the very start, there was someone who had managed to charge into the top 10,000, and this person was not Yu Yiyao but another disciple of the Heterodox Alliance. This was something even Zhao Baiyang, observing from the outside, found quite shocking.
“It's actually him! Cangyang!” Zhao Baiyang looked at the rankings announced by the Longevity Taoist Monarch, his face showing a thick sense of surprise.
Indeed, besides revealing the rankings to the trialists themselves every ten days, Pei Xuanjing did not conceal anything from the watching True Immortals outside, openly displaying the leaderboard for them to watch at any time.
At the beginning, Zhao Baiyang's gaze was mainly on Yu Yiyao. Compared to Yu Yiyao's slight disappointment and unwillingness at just barely entering the top 100,000 after ten days of hard work, Zhao Baiyang felt that her current ranking was to be expected.
Being on different levels, they viewed the situation differently, and thus the results obtained were completely different.
Yu Yiyao could not see the big picture; all she could see was her own hard work over these ten days. She had eliminated so many opponents to achieve such a ranking, hence her sense of discontent.
But what Zhao Baiyang saw was not just his own disciple; from outside of the Myriad Laws Realm, he could see the performance of nearly all the Supreme Strong participating in the trials.
Indeed, he did not deny that Yu Yiyao had worked hard, but which cultivator in these trials was not? Each one was actively seeking opponents and accumulating points, striving to climb the rankings.
But when everyone was working hard, strength and talent were thoroughly manifested.
Indeed, with Yu Yiyao's talent and strength, she could be counted as superior in these trials, and her power was also above average; she was capable of slaying many opponents.
However, in the Myriad Laws Realm, filled with so many powerhouses, there was no shortage of strong fighters. Their efficiency in killing opponents was far greater than Yu Yiyao's.
In ten days, Yu Yiyao could kill more than twenty powerhouses, but for the top powerhouses, they could achieve this in four to five days.
Even those ranked within the top 10,000 could do so within a day; it was just that often, due to not encountering enough opponents, they spent more time searching for them during these ten days.
In Zhao Baiyang's eyes, if it were not for these trialists being too dispersed, perhaps the scores of those at the front this time could have doubled or more.
