How do I build a dynamic ranking system ?(Laravel-5)

I'm trying to build a ranking system that allows users to go up in rank by accumulating points. Is it possible to update the rankings upon user ranking up immediately? How can I do this if I account for several hundred users hitting the database at the same time?
