The Road to Robbery, Points Skyrocket!

Seeing this, Chen Changqing's expression remained calm.

"So these are the Realm Beasts inside the Void Realm?"

"Their strength isn't much to speak of—only the First Layer of Qi Refining."

In just a few breaths, the Black Wind Wolf had already charged to Chen Changqing's front. Opening its maw wide, a black whirlwind shot straight toward him.

Chen Changqing's gaze turned cold as his hands swiftly formed hand seals.

"Chop!"

With a single finger pointed out, the Chengying Sword, driven by the Sword Control Technique, transformed directly into a streak of light that shot forth horizontally.

"Shua!"

The sword light was like lightning, cleaving straight through the black whirlwind.

Its residual force undiminished, it reached the Black Wind Wolf in an instant.

"Bang!"

Before the Black Wind Wolf could react, its body was instantly sliced in two.

Just as Chen Changqing slew the Black Wind Wolf, the Identity Token hanging at his waist suddenly emitted a brilliant radiance.

When he looked again, a number "1" had already appeared on the front of the token.

Chen Changqing glanced down at his Identity Token and said with a faint smile:

"One point of contribution in the bag."

Then, without overthinking it, he continued flying on his sword.

Meanwhile.

Elsewhere in the Void Realm, disciples from the other outer courtyards had also begun slaughtering Realm Beasts and seeking opportunities.

Disciples from the Fourth Courtyard formed battle formations, and wherever they passed, Realm Beasts fell one after another.

Several disciples from the Third Courtyard cut down Realm Beasts all the way into a valley, where rumors said spiritual herbs were hidden.

A fat disciple from the Fifth Courtyard pulled out a map and muttered slyly:

"The treasure map Senior Brother left behind last time—this time it's going to come in real handy!"

It wasn't hard to see that some of them had come for the rankings.

So when killing Realm Beasts, they were exceptionally diligent.

Of course, there were also plenty who had only entered the Void Realm to reap benefits.

When they encountered powerful Realm Beasts, they simply chose to go around. What they cared about were the treasures and inheritances inside the Void Realm—there was no need to fight the Realm Beasts to the death.

After all, for ordinary disciples, the hope of entering the Inner Sect was slim. It was more practical to take the chance and search for treasures.

If luck was on their side and they found something like a Spiritual Treasure, that would be a meteoric rise.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, three days had gone by.

Over these three days, Chen Changqing had controlled the Chengying Sword and pushed forward relentlessly, already slaying three hundred Realm Beasts.

Among them, the strongest Realm Beast had reached the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, comparable to the elite disciples of the seven outer courtyards.

But for Chen Changqing, this level of strength was clearly not enough to impress.

Though he too was at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, the technique he cultivated was the Nine Revolutions Qi Refining Art. The vital energy within his body was three times greater than that of an ordinary disciple.

Moreover, he had broken through into the Qi Refining Realm from the Body Refining Extreme Realm.

Since he hadn't encountered any stronger Realm Beasts, Chen Changqing didn't have a precise measure of his own strength.

But in his estimation, even if he faced a Realm Beast comparable to Foundation Establishment, he could still fight it!

"Too slow!"

"Killing Realm Beasts like this—the efficiency is far too low."

"At this rate, after ten days, the contribution I earn probably won't even make the top twenty."

Chen Changqing stopped in a valley and glanced down at his Identity Token. The number on it had already become "300."

Just then, a disturbance came from not far away.

"Hm?"

Chen Changqing turned his head to look, only to see several figures dart out from the dense forest with ill intent.

Before long, this group had surrounded Chen Changqing.

"Sixth Courtyard?"

Chen Changqing sized up the newcomers' attire—all of them wore identical blue robes.

Seeing Chen Changqing hesitate, the leading man spoke coldly:

"Kid from the Seventh Courtyard!"

"If you know what's good for you, hand over your points. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."

Chen Changqing paused, a hint of surprise in his voice:

"You can actually hand over points after earning them?"

Hearing this, the leading Sixth Courtyard Disciple let out a sneer and said:

"Looks like you entered the Void Realm knowing nothing at all!"

"In here, stealing points is allowed."

"Of course, the prerequisite is... that you have the strength for it!"

With that, the man reached out a hand and added:

"Hand over your Identity Token, nice and easy!"

Chen Changqing's eyes flashed with a sharp glint. A faint smile curled at the corner of his mouth as he said meaningfully:

"So that's how it is."

"Why didn't I think of that?"

The moment his words faded, Chen Changqing's figure flickered and vanished from where he stood.

"Bam! Bam! Bam!"

Immediately after, a series of explosive punches rang out.

The Sixth Courtyard Disciples who had surrounded Chen Changqing hadn't even reacted before they were sent flying by his lightning-wreathed fists.

Before long, the Sixth Courtyard Disciples who had planned to rob Chen Changqing were all battered and swollen, their faces beaten into pig heads.

"Now!"

"It's your turn to hand over your points."

Chen Changqing stood with his sword, looking down at the Sixth Courtyard Disciples curled up on the ground.

Their faces pale, they trembled in fear.

They had thought they'd catch a break running into someone from the Seventh Courtyard.

Who knew Chen Changqing's strength would be this terrifying?

Left with no choice, they gritted their teeth and handed over their Identity Tokens.

Following the Sixth Courtyard Disciples' instructions, Chen Changqing pressed the tokens he'd taken against his own Identity Token.

He watched as the points from the Sixth Courtyard Disciples' tokens transferred into his.

After a quick round of work, Chen Changqing's original 300 points had become 500.

"Stealing points from others is way faster than hunting Realm Beasts alone!"

Chen Changqing smiled in satisfaction, casually tossed the now-zeroed Identity Tokens back to the Sixth Courtyard Disciples, and gracefully flew off on his sword!

After tasting this sweet success.

From then on, Chen Changqing went all out, embarking on a path of point robbery.

He no longer focused on killing Realm Beasts but instead sought out disciples from other courtyards.

Three Fifth Courtyard disciples had just worked together to kill a Qi Refining eighth-layer Realm Beast.

Before they could even celebrate, Chen Changqing forced them back with a single sword strike, and they obediently handed over their points.

A Third Courtyard disciple skilled in stealth hid in a treetop, ready to ambush, only to be shaken down by a burst of Sword Qi from Chen Changqing. He admitted defeat in disgrace and handed over his points.

Some other disciples, who were also planning to rob others of their points, ran into Chen Changqing in a case of the robber getting robbed, and their points were taken!

At this moment, inside a hidden cave in the Void Realm.

Chen Changqing was tallying his gains.

"Not bad, not bad. In no time at all, my points have reached a thousand."

As he spoke, Chen Changqing glanced at his Identity Token, where the point count had indeed climbed to 1000.

Robbing points was far faster than hunting Realm Beasts.

At the same time.

Outside the Void Realm, on the vast square, people from all seven outer courtyards kept their eyes fixed on a pillar.

On that pillar, the Scoreboard updated in real time.

Suddenly, someone shouted in surprise:

"Look! Who's that Chen Changqing? How did he suddenly jump to third place on the Scoreboard?"
