The Yang Household's Battle Merits
Having achieved numerous Merit, Huang Chunhua returned to the crowd with a smug look on his face, completely disregarding the strange looks he received from those around him.
"Almost there! I only need 30,000 Spirit Stones to raise enough money to buy the Golden Core Formation Pill. Golden Core! I, Huang Chunhua, will definitely break through to the Golden Core!" Huang Chunhua shouted fervently in his heart, a genuine joy appearing on his face.
After the Huang Household came the Liu Household. Liu Changsheng stepped forward with a calm expression. Although he was about to receive a lot of Merits, he was not happy.
Liu Lingyu perished. The cheerful and straightforward Liu Household Foundation Establishment from the Liu family encountered a desperate counterattack from the Devil Cultivators in the final battle to kill them, and ultimately perished together with one of the Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivators.
So far, the Liu Household has lost four Foundation Establishment in this Cold Tide. The thought of this heavy loss makes Liu Changsheng lose all interest.
After Yunhua's calculations, the Liu Household ultimately earned 3268 Merits, nearly a thousand more than the Huang Household.
Among these, Liu Lingyu's death resulted in 450 Merit for his Merit, while the three Qi Refining cultivators each received 70 Merit points for their Merit.
In addition, the Liu Household killed three Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivators, two in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage and one in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, gaining 1260 Merits.
Aside from these, the remaining Merits are the role played by the Liu Household in this operation.
For example, Liu Changsheng held off a Devil Cultivator at the Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment. Although he did not kill him, he still earned Merit, as he contributed significantly to the operation.
After receiving his Merits, Liu Changsheng silently withdrew, and Yang Haoyu stepped forward.
Upon seeing the Yang Household Member, Yunhua's attitude softened considerably, and he significantly relaxed the restrictions on exchanging Merits.
The Yang Household Members always gained slightly more Merits from killing the same Qi Refining Devil Cultivator. Although each individual kill might seem small, they accumulated to a considerable number.
In this operation, the Yang Household killed a total of five Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivators, three Foundation Establishment Fierce Beasts, and twenty-nine Qi Refining Devil Cultivators.
Among the five Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivators, two were in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and Yang Tianyou and Yang Haoyu each killed one.
As for the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Devil Cultivator that Yang Haoyu faced, since it was Yun Zhan who ultimately killed him, she could only obtain 30% of the Merits. This was only because Yunhua gave her special treatment.
In the end, the Yang Household gained a total of 2050 Merits from the five Devil Cultivators they killed.
Yunhua also considered the three-headed Foundation Establishment Fierce Beast to be a normal Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator.
The three-headed Fierce Beast, a tiger-headed human-bodied Fierce Beast, is equivalent to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Devil Cultivator and is counted as 600 Merits.
The fox- Fierce Beast and the wild boar-like Fierce Beast are equivalent to Foundation Establishment Early Stage Devil Cultivators, and are counted as 500 Merits in total. Adding the two together, there are 1100 Merits.
In addition, Yang Tianyou severed the tower, Yang Haoyu assisted in killing the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Devil Cultivator, the Yang Household Qi Refining cultivators killed twenty-nine Qi Refining Devil Cultivators, and the compensation received by the two Qi Refining cultivators who died or were injured...
All these miscellaneous points totaled 1900 Merits for the Yang Household, according to Yunhua.
With all Merit merits added together, the Yang Household obtained a total of 5050 Merits, making them the Lineage with the most Merits among the three Foundation Establishment Lineage.
Such numerous Merit were not solely due to Yunhua's favoritism; the key factor was the Yang Household family's inherent strength.
In this battle, Yang Tianyou's combat prowess was fully revealed, so after the Merit merits were tallied, most of the cultivators' eyes were fixed on the proud young man.
Admiration, jealousy, envy, and a variety of other emotions were expressed.
Yang Tianyou remained completely unmoved by these things. To this day, his temperament has become increasingly calm and steady, and he will not be easily swayed by external factors.
After calculating his Merits, Yang Haoyu returned to the front of the Yang Household's ranks with a broad smile on his face and great joy.
"Alright, the Merits have been calculated. If you all want to exchange for resources now, you can register here directly. The Merits will be deducted directly, and you can collect the resources yourself at Yellowstone Market." Yunhua said calmly.
She did not mention the Merit of the Luochuan Sect and the Zhang Household, and the people below tacitly refrained from asking.
The reason is simple: these two forces are not comparable to the three Foundation Establishment Lineage in terms of scale.
The Merits of the Luochuan Sect are actually sect Contribution Points, which will be calculated by a specialist after they return to the sect.
More importantly, the exchange rate within the Luochuan Sect is definitely much higher than that on the Merit Exchange Ranking. One point of Merit (sect Contribution Points) can be exchanged for more Spirit Items and resources.
As for the Zhang family, the Duke of Ying Zhang Household, their Merit will be on par with those of the Luochuan Sect Disciples. This is a gesture of goodwill from the Luochuan Sect, a common tactic used by powerful forces to strengthen their relationships and forge positive connections.
Over here, the major Foundation Establishment Lineage reacted differently after hearing Fairy Yunhua's words.
The Yang Household and Liu Household planned to spend some of their Merits now, while Huang Chunhua was preoccupied with his Golden Core Formation Pill and was not in a hurry to exchange them.
After deciding to exchange, Fairy Yunhua handed the secondary exchange list to the Yang Household and Liu Household, allowing them to choose the items they wished to exchange.
Yang Haoyu held the list, and several important figures from the Yang and Liu Households sat around it, discussing it animatedly.
Yang Tianyou was amazed by the wide variety of resources on the list.
Among these resources, there were many that he had only heard of by name before but had never seen in person, but now he had seen detailed illustrations and learned a lot from them.
There were also some Spirit Items that he had never heard of before, and he couldn't help but take a few extra glances at them when he saw them for the first time. At the same time, Yang Tianyou couldn't help but marvel at the abundance of resources in the Luochuan Sect.
After discussion, the Yang Household selected several items they wanted to exchange.
Foundation Establishment Pill: Second-Rank Low-Grade Pills, requiring 640 Merit merits to exchange.
The corpse of Second-Tier Upper-Grade Demon Beast, the Red-Wing Flying Eagle, can be exchanged for 700 Merits.
Second-tier top-grade spirit wood, fire cedar, half a trunk, exchangeable for 1000 battle merits.
"Jingfeng's Alchemy Insights," exchange price: 300 Merits. This is Alchemy insight left by a Second-Tier Upper-Grade Alchemist. It records many Alchemy and fire control techniques. For the Yang Household, which currently lacks Tier 2 Alchemists, this book is worth exchanging for.
As for why the exchange price is so low, it's simple: the exchange price of knowledge books has always been low. After all, these things are inexhaustible and not like consumable resources; it's a highly profitable business.
Of course, the books redeemed from the list cannot be circulated outside the sect; otherwise, they will be severely punished by the Luochuan Sect if discovered.
Three Foundation Establishment Pills, the corpse of a Red-Wing Flying Eagle, half a Fire Cedar Wood trunk, and a copy of "Jingfeng's Alchemy Insights" cost the Yang Household a total of 3920 Merits.
