Chapter 500 The so-called 'chasing the deer'

Because there was still a week to go, it wasn't particularly stressful, and Chen Fan wasn't particularly in a hurry.

It's just that even if he didn't deliberately hurry, he arrived in the imperial capital within two days.

Prince's House.

"You guys, you really want to play thrilling games with me every critical moment!"

When the prince saw Chen Fan again, he also had a helpless expression on his face, "Where did you go at such a critical time?"

Chen Fan smiled sarcastically: "I'm in seclusion, and I'm a little forgetful. I'm sorry to His Royal Highness."

The prince shook his head: "You don't have to apologize to me, winning the Yuanshou gift is more useful than any apology!"

Chen Fan also nodded sharply.

The prince nodded: "Time is running out, so let me tell you about the most important part of Yuanshou's ceremony, which is also the 'competition' you want to participate in. Let me tell you about the specific process."

Chen Fan was startled: "Chasing the deer..."

In Chen Fan's previous life, this word had a special meaning, but it was obvious that this sentence did not mean what he understood.

The so-called deer competition literally means that the princes send their talents to compete for a special spirit deer!

"The specific rules of each 'chasing the deer' are different, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they are carried out in the virtual environment created by the Vientiane Pot..."

Chen Fan couldn't help being taken aback.

The Vientiane Pot is such a magical artifact.

It is naturally very simple to create a virtual battlefield.

Moreover, the Vientiane Pot can also project the real-time scene inside it, which is more convenient for people outside to watch the game!

The prince continued: "This also means that all the geniuses participating in the competition will not be really hurt because of this...it will not hurt their peace."

The geniuses recruited by the various princes and queens can already be regarded as the highest-level geniuses in Daqian, but they are younger.

Every death or injury of such a person is a great loss to Dagan.

"However, Chen Fan, you don't have to be unscrupulous because of this. Your current strength, one-on-one should indeed be invincible, but you don't have to be too high-profile..."

The prince changed the subject:

"Because you are the most famous and powerful of all the contestants, everyone will pay attention to you, and may even unite to attack you. If you are besieged by others, no matter how powerful you are, it will be very troublesome."

Chen Fan naturally nodded his head when he heard the words, but he still didn't care much in his heart, and looked at the prince with a smile: "Your Highness, do you know who the other geniuses His Highness recruited are?"

As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy will never slack in a hundred battles.

Of course, Chen Fan also asked casually.

With Chen Fan's current strength, it doesn't matter whether he knows who the opponent is...

Not to mention under the age of forty, even if it is limited to under the age of one hundred, there are probably not many people who are more powerful than Chen Fan.

The prince nodded, and took out a stack of papers from the Sumeru Ring with a flip of his hand:

"I've already got the list of participants in the 'competition' reported by my sons and daughters of the royal family. There are a total of 321 people, of which you need to pay attention to only 17 of them!"

"These seventeen people are all seventeen who have been confirmed to have reached the eighth level of martial arts, and two of them have been confirmed to have reached the ninth level of martial arts...Here is the detailed information of those seventeen people, for you."

Chen Fan couldn't help being startled when he took the information from the prince.

A total of 321 people participated in the competition. Doesn't it mean that the number of princes and princesses who signed up also reached 321.

In fact, in the world of martial arts, there are no long-lived people, so it is normal to have more children.

But the problem is that the current emperor is not yet a hundred years old, and he has not broken through the tenth level before becoming emperor!

Chen Fan thought of the late nineteenth prince, who was only thirty or forty years old, younger than the crown prince Liu Lun, which also shows that the late emperor's number of heirs should not be many...

There were so many people participating in the first yuan hunting ceremony.

Chen Fan couldn't imagine how many people would participate in the Yuanshou Ceremony after a hundred years or two hundred years later...

The prince seemed to have noticed Chen Fan's subtle expression, and said:

"Don't get me wrong, besides my younger brothers and sisters, there are also many descendants of my uncles and cousins. All the descendants of my generation who are surnamed Liu are eligible to participate in this Yuanshou ceremony!"

"It's just that the status of these people is there, it's just making up the number, the key is the competition between our brothers and sisters..."

Chen Fan was also stunned.

After that, he also began to look over the detailed information of the seventeen people provided by the prince.

Sure enough, these seventeen people are basically geniuses recruited by princes and princesses.

Among them, three or four people were on the hero list of Tianjilou back then, but the one with the highest ranking was also in his twenties. Although the general age was over thirty, there were not many who broke through the ninth level.

Of course, no one knows whether they have hidden strength or not.

Among the seventeen people, there are only two Jiuzhong, one is under the command of the fifth princess, named Hutuba, and the other is under the command of the third prince, named Yuan Siwei.

The two also happened to be stuck at the age of thirty-nine, and they were also the only two fighters who participated in this "competition" on the surface!

In fact, no one knows whether there are other Kunou behind it...

"Neither of these two is listed on the Hero List, they are just dead warriors cultivated by the third brother and the fifth sister. They sacrificed their lifespan to break through to the ninth level. Even if they master some secret methods, they will not be your opponent, Chen Fan! You don't have to. Special attention!"

The third prince and the fifth princess could not be called the prince's opponents at all, they were much worse than the seventh prince and the thirteenth prince.

"It's Wu Tianjiao, this kid deserves your attention the most! Although he is young, he has the body of a fire spirit, and his combat power is not weaker than that of Jiuzhong. This time, he went to the Lingshen Dao Sect for further training through the channel of Yichan Palace. In two years, it is estimated that the strength has improved a lot!"

For a genius of Wu Tianjiao's level, cultivation is of course important, but personal means are the key to victory!

Even if the strength has not broken through Jiuzhong, Wu Tianjiao is much stronger than ordinary Jiuzhong.

Not to mention, he still possesses a heavenly spirit fire, so any master who has not broken through his spiritual consciousness may not be his opponent!

However, the thirteenth prince, who was also a powerful competitor of the prince, sent a genius fighter who was not very eye-catching.

He's just a well-regulated genius at the eighth level of martial arts, with a good reputation, but he's not too powerful, far inferior to Wu Tianjiao.

"Hehe, the list is just a list. My brothers and sisters have hidden a lot of information. It is estimated that there may be other masters of the ninth level of martial arts..."

"Especially my thirteenth brother, I have a hunch that he must have prepared a special surprise for me!"

...

In the blink of an eye, the day of Yuan Hunting Ceremony arrived.

The entire imperial capital was very lively, and the core members of the seven major families also poured into the imperial capital from all over the place.

Since the death of the first emperor, in just a few years, Daqian has experienced a lot. At a time when everything is going away, this gift of Yuanshou also has a very special meaning!

In the imperial capital, inside the imperial palace, there are lights and festoons.

Three patriarchs from the seven major families came to hold the worship ceremony with Emperor Daqian.

Chen Fan stood behind the prince, without looking sideways, with a calm expression.

But at the prince's side, there were princes standing shoulder to shoulder with him. At this moment, behind the seventh prince, Wu Tianjiao's sharp gaze was always cast on Chen Fan not far away.

The seventh prince walked to the prince with a smile, glanced at Chen Fan behind him, with a subtle expression on his face:

"His Royal Highness, it's really unpredictable..."
