Before Hu Anjing could continue talking, Li Huang cut her off.
"Wait, wait, wait." She stopped her from continuing professionally.
Hu Anjing didn't know what made Li Huang so agitated but she waited for him to speak again.
"Let me ask you again just to make sure, you are telling me each of those beasts was worth 4,000 points?" Li Huang was on the verge of crying.
"…Yes." She wasn't sure if answering with the truth was the best option here, but in the end, she answered truthfully.
"…I see. There must be a very limited number of them there, right?" Li Huang was trying to find something that makes these beasts unprofitable to calm himself.
Why is Li Huang so fixated on asking about the points? The reason is simple.
Li Huang has eliminated almost 11,000 giant gray worms that yielded him 548,366 points. Meaning on average he got less than 50 points from each of them.
Now these beasts that Hu Anjing is talking about are 80 times more efficient than the gray worms so it is natural for Li Huang to feel pained by this.
Hu Anjing now got why Li Huang was agitated so he tried to calm him down.
'He must be thinking that there are many of these beasts…' Hu Anjing thought.
"No junior uncle, there is only about 200 to 250 of them there…" She said. If only she knew that this number was not as comforting as she thought for Li Huang.
"…I see." Li Huang said but his mind was somewhere else.
'So I hunted eleven fucking thousands worms for 50 points each when I could be killing these beasts and gain 800,000 points…' he was trying to think of something positive about wasting his time like that.
'Well, no wonder I could find this many loots in there, clearly, no one has explored it before because the point given by these worms was small compared to other places.' Li Huang now knows why there were many formations untouched there.
'But… the worms were really disgusting, it was truly a traumatic experience.' Li Huang was really angry with himself for sticking to one region without knowing how it was compared to other regions.
"The giant gray worms in the desert biome worth 50 points at most…" Li Huang said all of a sudden and Not only Hu Anjing but also Ye Ling understood what it meant.
'He had to kill thousands of worms to get points…' they both thought.
Unbeknown to Li Huang, a tear was forming in his left eye.
"Ar—Are you crying?"Hu Anjing asked Li Huang. She has never seen him cry so far so it was a bit shocking to her.
Li Huang now got conscious of it and wiped the single tear with his thumb.
"No, it was a sweat." Li Huang said.
""…"" Ye Ling and Hu Anjing were lost for words.
Li Huang stood from where he was and instinctively dusted off his robes.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go and hunt some beasts…" Li Huang said to Hu Anjing. He was itching for some action after he understood that he suppressed his helminthphobia (A/N: phobia of worms) for almost nothing if you put [Soul splitting scripture] aside.
Hu Anjing also stood and spoke.
"We can start moving to the mountain range after I tell other disciples the plan." She was also very eager to fight together with Li Huang.
"Excuse me, senior sister and senior brother, can I also come and fight alongside you?" For the first time in this meeting, Ye Ling said something.
As the number one inner disciple in the sect, she was famous but she knows that someone like Hu Anjing was way beyond her league in power and experience. So she would love to use this chance to fight alongside the two of them, that are each hailed to be one of the sect's bests in this generation.
"I Have no problem with it if you are okay with it." Li Huang didn't need to think much before giving his answer. He knows despite how bitter he was about these beasts, they are strong so having a strong member added to the team could make things easier and way faster. In a timed trial gaining the points faster is all that matters.
He looked at Hu Anjing and waited for her answer.
"I don't have a problem with it but if you can't carry your own weight you have to go back, are you fine with that?" She didn't beat around the bush and directly told Ye Ling what she expects of her.
Ye Ling frowned a little because she was thinking.
"I understand senior sister, I won't let you down…" She said and this showed that she is not going to be a burden.
"Good." Hu Anjing nodded and we walked toward the other disciples.
After talking a bit, Hu Anjing told them the new plan and told them that they will be there for at least 4 days so if anyone is going to do something solo or in smaller groups, they can do it before the group moves again.
Within an hour everyone was ready and the disciples of the heavenly sword sect walked to the mountain area.
——(POV Li Huang)——
We got on the way and it didn't take long for us to arrive at our destination.
Along the way, I chatted a little about the trial with Lai Xinyue and so far she seemed to had a good run from what she said. Needless to say, Jin Fen wasn't happy about me talking to her but well, I didn't care if he was happy or not.
'If he really likes to die, I'm not that heartless to deny it from him…' if he decides to clash with me, I will use everything I have in my arsenal to destroy him but for now, I'm chill.
When we got to the foot of the mountain, we set up a temporary camp for anyone who would like to have a place to rest and gather at night. This also acted as our center of command as we further improved our map day by day.
…
"So, how does this beast look like?" I asked Hu Anjing as we eliminated some mob beast that we called giant apes.
"You see these giant apes? They are like giant, giant apes." Hu Anjing said while cutting down a giant ape with ease.
"I see." I said as I didn't want to tell her my inner thoughts. Internally I thought that giant giant ape is one of the laziest names that anyone has ever come up with.
