Chapter 1191: Things Are Different in the East
The third round of the Immortal Capital’s Trial of the Hunt was about killing and plunder. There was no set time limit. On some occasions in the past, the third round lasted for a long time, while in other cases it ended quickly.
The reason was that the end of the round was determined by a number. Of the 10,000 Immortal Capital permission medallions that were given out, when only 1,000 remained... a one-month countdown would begin. At the end of the month, the Trial of the Hunt was over.
In terms of the ranking list, it was publicly displayed at all the major orthodox organizations in the Fifth Star Ring. In other words, it was visible to participants and non-participants alike.
As of now... there were 1,000 people with permission medallions. The countdown had begun.
As it did, the rankings became public, and the Fifth Star Ring was shaken. That list contained the combined results of all of the four major planetary systems, and if there were no unexpected changes, it was likely to be the final ranking list.
The most important thing about the list was the top 100. Going back through many Trials of the Hunt, everyone in the top 100 ended up going to the Immortal Capital. Exceptions were exceedingly rare. The top 10 were considered the chosen ones, and they were always the elites of the current generation in the star ring.
After scanning the top 100, just about everyone would focus on the top 10!
To the surprise of everyone, there were only three of the Shining Stars in the top 10. The others... weren’t even on the list! By now, it was no secret why this was the case.
Whether it was the big event in the north or the news from the south, just about everyone had heard about Xu Qing! Other people just tried to snatch whatever permission medallions they could. But he was hunting the Shining Stars.
Jiang Fan had lost to him. Yuanshan Su had chosen to bend the knee. Hordeslayer and Rampart had ultimately given him their medallions. With their light added to his, the star that represented Xu Qing was glittering more brightly than ever. When those Shining Stars were eliminated, they dropped from their high spots on the list, and cultivators that few people had heard of replaced them. But eventually, a familiar name popped into the top 5.
Li Mengtu took 5th place! As the lone Shining Star from the west, he had always been on an upward trajectory.
Above him was Sir Vilespirit, who was in 4th. There was no consensus on whether it was a good or bad thing for him to have such a high rank. At the very least, people agreed that he had earned his place there.
