Xu Wuyi retracted his spear and walked to the console.
The screen lit up, and lines of data scrolled by:
[Event: Red River—Silver Port Border Zone Secondary Rift Defense Battle]
[Participant: Xu Wuyi (Student, Martial Arts Academy of Star Martial University; Martial Artist)]
[Combat Results: Confirmed Kills: Red Armor Commander-level Star Beast x9, standard Blade-toothed Beast x37. Defended zone maintained, no breaches.]
[Merit Calculation: ...]
[Total: 700 Federal Merit Points]
Seven hundred points.
Xu Wuyi looked at the number, his heart calm.
He knew that based on his combat results, the merit points should have been higher if calculated purely by kill count.
But the Federation's merit system wasn't a simple piece-rate system. It also took into account multiple factors like the combat environment, the nature of the mission, and teamwork.
