Chapter 98: 98, Ranking List Changes, Free Game Experience Tips_l
Translator: 549690339
With players handing in their quests one after another, huge changes started appearing on the level leaderboard.
The level leaderboard only displays the top 100 players, aptly nicknamed the “Top 100 Board” by the players.
On the leaderboard, the original top five players, Frost Red Tea, Cang Shan You Jing, and Emperor Blood Slays the Sky, had fallen to around 80th place, and the top spots were taken over by players who had participated in the battle.
On the current leaderboard, Su Yu retained his first place at Level 21 with 6% experience points;
The second place was still held by A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated at Level 11 with 23% experience points;
But the rankings below them had shifted.
Ranking third now was Shepherd in the Clouds at Level 11 with 5% experience points;
At fourth place was Snow Leopard, Level 10 with 99% experience points;
The gap between Su Yu and the second place had widened again, reaching an astonishing 10 levels!
By now, it seemed unlikely any other player would be ambitious enough to surpass him in terms of levels, right?
As for the changes on the level leaderboard, the players surrounding Su Yu were all thrilled.
Especially those who made it onto the leaderboard, their excitement was beyond words.
“Mr. Zhang, I made it onto the leaderboard! This is my first time on the leaderboard, ranked 86th!”
“Congratulations! I was quite close to making it too, I only missed the 100th place by 3% experience points.”
“Those who didn’t participate in the battle must’ve lost a lot!”
“Totally! Just like Zhan Tianjian, who used to be 10th and held great power in the novice village. He even charged tolls at the entrance of the village. Just look at him now, he fell out of the Top 100!”
“Let me see… That’s true! Zhan Tianjian really did fall out! This is certainly a cause for celebration!”
Zhan Tianjian had already denied and disproved the “village entrance toll” rumors many times on the forum.
However, as the saying goes, ‘rumors are easy to start but hard to quell’. Many players still had a bad impression of him. As a result, they all applauded and celebrated when he fell out of the Top 100.
Of course, some players noticed Su Yu’s level and were stunned:
“Did I see that wrong?! [Nemesis] just leveled up to 19 and now he is already at Level 21?!”
“What the! He really is Level 21!”
“I was just so excited about gaining 6600 experience points, but he leveled up twice directly, gaining even more experience points!”
One of the players questioned Su Yu: “[Nemesis], did we get different amounts of experience points?”
In response to the player’s question, Su Yu smiled slightly:
“Of course, it’s not the same. It’s like in the Qing Dynasty, when a famine occurs, and the court sends relief funding, do you think the peasants or the officials handling the relief would get more?”
The players were moved to tears at Su Yu’s words.
What “[Nemesis]” said made so much sense, they seemed to have no right to gain the same amount of experience points as him.
Snow Leopard was also standing beside Su Yu at this moment, having just completed his quest.
Looking at the level leaderboard, his name had made it to the top five for the first time.
But when he saw the huge “1v21” in front of [Nemesis], he was filled with a deep sense of powerlessness.
It seemed “[Nemesis]” would hold the first place forever!
However, after hearing [Nemesis]’s “relief funding” argument, he began to feel more hopeful:
“Senior, is there any way for us to become the ‘relief officials’? Can you share the method with us? Name your price!”
After thinking a bit, Su Yu replied with a cheerful smile: “I can tell you but I won’t require any reward, I am happy to share this information for free.”
The reason Su Yu didn’t want any reward was that earning the trust of an NPC, especially an NPC that could assign a thousand-player quest, was not easy.
Su Yu was able to gain the princess’s trust because firstly, he knew the plot trajectory as a reincarnator, and secondly, he had become a highly prestigious “senior scholar”.
As for other players… although there were thousands of elites present, Su Yu was not optimistic about their prospects of gaining the trust of a top-tier NPC —at least not for the next five or six months.
Instead of asking for rewards, it was better to generously share the information and have everyone owe him a favor.
Hearing that Su Yu was going to share his gaming experience for free, the players nearby quickly gathered around him, forming a tight circle.
They held their breaths, looking at him with eager eyes.
In the players’ eyes, Su Yu not only provided them with high-experience quests, he was also sharing his gaming insights for free. Where else could they find such a kind and generous top-ranked player?
Everyone looked at him with respect.
Su Yu stood still on the spot.
Once there were enough players gathered around him, he began: “Actually, it all started when I joined the [Scholar’s Temple]…”
Su Yu briefly narrated how he joined the temple, received the [Senior Scholar Badge], gained the princess’s trust and ended up taking over the task dispatch on her behalf.
As for how he easily obtained the [Senior Scholar Badge], Su Yu explained that he was luckily able to answer 30 questions correctly in the novice village library which happened to be the 30 questions on the test, hence he passed with ease.
After listening to Su Yu’s story, the players exchanged bewildered looks.
Red -Eyed Black Dragon exclaimed, “So that’s how it is! Gaining the trust of an
NPC allows you to dispatch quests on their behalf.”
Snow Leopard frowned, “But, apart from how difficult it is to gain an NPC’s trust, the 1% reward seems too little!”
Shepherd in the Clouds sighed, “At 1%, unless you assign quests on the scale of
[Nemesis], gathering thousands of players, the profit won’t be substantial.’
Summer shook his head, “Only top-tier NPCs like [Princess Alyssa] can issue such large-scale quests, and we don’t have access to such NPCs at the moment.”
“Yes!”
“That’s right, the highest-ranking official I’ve met is the head of the novice village.”
The players sighed in dismay.
“However…” Su Yu suddenly changed the subject, “If I’m not mistaken, there should be another field battle on Princess’s way back to the Goldfinch City. If you aren’t bothered by the reward this time, you’re welcome to join again!”
At Su Yu’s words, the players became excited once again: “We don’t mind, we don’t mind at all, how could we?! ‘
“I’ll sign up first!”
“Count me in.”
“When is the next battle starting? I will set an alarm right away.”
Su Yu shook his head, “The start time of the battle is unknown even to me, and the battle itself is only my speculation. If it does happen, I will announce it on the forum.
“Fine, I will follow you on the forum right away!”
“Switching to refreshing the forum every 10 minutes.”
“The location of the task should be at Maple City, we might as well do the task there while we wait.”
“That’s a good idea.”
“Let’s go to Maple City!”
“Anyway, thank you, [Nemesis]!” “[Nemesis] is forever godlike!”
