Martial Emperor Zun

Chapter 114 [115] The second round, the opponent!

The moment he saw these people, even Lin Chu's eyes trembled slightly. Among these people, he knew two people, namely Prince Xia Yukong and Seventh Prince Xia Ruyuan!However, being able to stand with the two princes and appear to be about the same age, the identities of the other seven are ready to be revealed!
Seven people, seven princes!
The nine princes descended together, making everyone secretly surprised.

The eldest prince is gentle and elegant, like a Confucian, with a smile on his face like a breeze.The second prince's face was cold, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, which was similar to Zhuge Wuqing who cultivated the ruthless artistic conception.The fourth prince's round belly was like a ball, and he also had a simple and honest smile on his face. His small eyes were slightly squinted, but there were wisps of light shining from time to time.The fifth prince and the sixth prince are very similar in appearance. From other people, Lin Chu already knew that the two are twin brothers. Needless to say, the seventh prince has a smile similar to that of the prince, but the difference is that, The smile of the Seventh Prince was humble, but Lin Chu, who had met the Seventh Prince, would not be fooled by the latter's appearance.The eighth prince had a handsome face, and the occasional radiance let people know his extraordinary. As for the ninth prince, his eyes were like lightning, full of coldness.

Among them, it was the third prince Xia Wutian who caught Lin Chuduo's eyes.This person's face was resolute, like a knife-cut face, with a domineering and sharp edge between his brows, he stood on the stage with his hands behind his back, his gaze was contemptuous, revealing an invisible majesty.

"In the rumors, the crown prince, the third prince, and the ninth prince are the most important. It seems that it is not groundless." Lin Chu narrowed his eyes and thought to himself.

"The nine princes come out together? Interesting." A voice sounded beside Lin Chu, making him frown slightly, and then slightly turned his head to look at the young man who spoke. This person was Lian Hao who had confronted Liu Jie before.

"Hehe." Seeing Lin Chu's gaze, Lian Hao smiled, and then said, "I heard His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince say that Brother Lin Chu is a young hero. I didn't believe it at first, but now I have eyes for His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince. I'm so impressed."

Lin Chu raised his eyebrows and looked at Lian Hao. This guy looks rough, but his heart is delicate. This passage is undoubtedly telling him that the other party is also a member of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, and he is on the same boat as him. And it sounds like every sentence is to boast of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince's knowledge of people, but in a disguised form, Lin Chu is also included in it. Although it is a compliment, it is not offensive.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Lian Hao." Lian Hao said with a smile.

Nodding his head, Lin Chu also showed a smile. Now that he has offended the Liu family and the Liang family, one stands behind the crown prince, and the other stands behind the third prince. Neither of them is easy to mess with. He can have an ally with a close relationship. It's not bad, it doesn't matter whether Lian Hao sincerely befriends him or is hypocritical and courteous, at least it is better than becoming an enemy. "Lin Chu."

"Hehe, Brother Lin can kill that Liang Yulong, which makes Lian Hao admire." Lian Hao gave a thumbs up and said with a smile.

With a noncommittal smile, Lin Chu didn't say anything.

"Brother Lian said before that the nine princes will come out together. I don't know what it means?"

Lian Hao smiled, narrowing his eyes slightly, "Brother Lin must know the purpose of the first big summer event, right?"

Lin Chu kept his expression on the face, but he was taken aback in his heart. He heard about the purpose of the Great Summer Festival from Elder Kong. The latter also said that no one should know about it. Could it be that Lian Hao also knew about it?

Looking at Lin Chu, he seemed to understand Lin Chu's doubts. Lian Hao didn't explain much, but continued, "This time, the ten strongest people will be determined. These ten people can be said to be the talents of the young generation of the Great Xia Empire. The most outstanding generation, so this time the nine princes come together, the purpose is naturally self-evident."

"You mean?" Lin Chu nodded thoughtfully.

"Hehe, as Lin Chu thought, as long as any one of these ten people is not dead in the future, if he can be put under the command of a certain prince, it will naturally be of great benefit to that certain prince's future ascension to the top."

Nodding lightly, Lin Chu thought further, perhaps there is also the test of the Nine Princes by Emperor Da Xia.Among the ten strongest people, someone must have already joined a certain prince, but what about the 20 strongest people?There are others, even if they don't advance to the second round, their talent and strength should not be underestimated. If they can be recruited, it will be a big gain.

Sure enough, next, the prince took a step slowly, looking at everyone in the audience with gentle eyes.

"Everyone, today is a big day for our Great Xia Empire. First, the third younger brother of the Great Xia Empire is getting married. Second, all the younger generations of the Great Xia Empire will gather in our Great Xia Imperial Capital to share a grand event at the pinnacle of martial arts. It can be described as a double joy." day!"

Xia Yukong looked at the audience with a smile in his eyes, "Besides, this hall is also eager to seek talents for my Daxia Erlang. If there are talents who are willing to work with Yukong to create a prosperous future for Daxia, my Zixiao Hall welcomes you all! "

"Wow!"

After Xia Yukong’s words fell, everyone in the audience burst into dazzling light. The prince has always been known for being gentle and elegant, and he is also the first heir of the future emperor. If he can work for the prince, let alone other things, there is no need for many martial arts resources. Think, the prince will not treat them badly.

At this time, many warriors heard the words, their eyes flickered, and they were a little moved.

"If you don't enter the general mansion, then you can enter the center of imperial power in the imperial capital." Jun Feiyang took a dry grass root in his mouth and said vaguely.Lin Chu smiled, "The royal family has great power, but the restrictions are also too great. Don't we people who practice martial arts pursue that freedom? Once we enter the center of royal power, we can't help ourselves."

"Hehe, you think very deeply." Jun Feiyang glanced at Lin Chu and said with a light smile.

Among the crowd, only Yi Dongfeng's eyes flickered, as if hesitating.

After the prince finished speaking, the second prince also stepped forward, and then the third prince Xia Wutian took a step forward, looking at the audience with majesty, "The two princes are eager to seek talents, and I, Xia Wutian, also promise everyone that I will do the same." By my side, as long as you are talented, you can choose any resources! All martial arts are up to you to practice!"

It was said that many people were short of breath, and the words of the third prince also hit their weakness.

The remaining six princes also stepped forward one after another and made a declaration. At this moment, many people felt something unusual. The battle for the successor of the royal family centered on the nine princes would slowly sweep across the entire continent like a storm. Xia Empire, in this storm, if they were on the wrong team, there might not even be scum left.

"Next, I will announce the list of 20 people who will advance to the second round from the first round." The old man in gray opened and closed his eyes, scanned the audience, and spoke slowly.Suddenly, everyone's eyes trembled, and the audience immediately fell silent.

"No. 20." The gray-clothed old man's voice was not loud, but he used some kind of powerful supernatural powers and martial arts, so that everyone present could hear clearly.He raised his eyes and glanced at the audience, "White as smoke!"

On the imperial list, the golden light trembled, and the next moment, three large characters were imprinted on it!

Under the stage, a sound of breaking wind resounded instantly, and a graceful figure stepped onto the battle stage stepping on the void!

Bai Ruyan, a very beautiful woman.

"Is it Bai Ruyan from the Bai family? She has gained a lot of fame these years. Together with the other three pearls of the imperial capital, they are collectively called the Four Beauties, and she is the only one among the Four Beauties who is not from the Eight Great Families." Many people murmured in low voices. .

Lin Chu's eyes were also focused. This woman's cultivation is very strong, she has reached the peak of the lotus fetus, and she is only in her early twenties, which is considered a very good talent.

"No. 19, Liu Jie!" Liu Jie stepped onto the stage, but there was no joy on his face, but a hint of displeasure.If it wasn't for Lin Chu's failure to please him, how could he be reduced to the nineteenth place?
With his strength, the top ten are easy!
In the audience, many people were also a little surprised, but thinking of the legends that have been popular recently, it seems that they also vaguely guessed something.

"Hehe, this Liu Jie can only be ranked at the bottom, I have to 'thank you' brother Lin." Lian Hao laughed, seemingly very happy.

Lin Chu twitched his lips, looked at Liu Jie on the stage, and groaned in his heart, next time, he must kill!

"No.18, Gou Bo."

"No. 17..."

"..."

Next, many strong young men stepped onto the battle stage after their names were read out, their breaths condensed and did not disperse, and a terrifying light shot out from their closed eyes, making the eyelids of the crowd tremble.

"Tenth! Wenrenjiu."

"Boom!" Wen Renjiu stepped onto the battle stage with a bang, with a gleam of pride in his eyes.To be able to get the tenth place is also extremely good.

The names of No. 4 to No. [-] were also slowly read out, and the six figures also entered the battle arena. In the end, only the top three were left.

Among the people who have been announced, Binglan Mansion's exile Wuchen and Jun Feiyang were named, as well as Yi Dongfeng.As for Lie Fengren and Zhuge Wuqing, the former fell into crisis prematurely, and the latter didn't bother to find Ling Qi. In addition, he was injured after trying to save Lie Fengren, so neither of them advanced.

By the way, Lian Hao also advanced, No. 13!

Among the many other kingdoms, there were people who stood out and advanced to the second round one after another.

"No.3!" As the voice of the gray-clothed old man sounded again, everyone turned their attention to the huge imperial list. Whose name can be engraved on the first three lines?
"Xiao Chengfeng!"

"Xiao Chengfeng?"

"His words do have that strength."

"Well, among the eight young masters this time, the first two didn't come back because they went out for training. Xiao Chengfeng's strength is extremely frightening, ranking third, especially his swordsmanship, which is extremely frightening."

Lin Chu also squinted his eyes, and he also practiced swords, but Liang Yulong was far behind Xiao Chengfeng when compared.

"Second! Bai Yi!"

Daxuan Mansion Bai Yi's expression was indifferent, he stepped out of the crowd slowly, his eyes were like ancient wells, neither surprised nor pleased.

"Number one!" After a slight pause, there was a gleam in the eyes of the gray-clothed old man. Following his pause, everyone in the audience stopped breathing and stared at the stage without blinking. Even the Ninth Prince As well as those young people who have already advanced, there is a hint of curiosity in their eyes.

"Gu Yan, Lin Chu!" The old man in gray slowly spit out two names.

"Huh? Two people?"

"what happened?"

Many people were shocked when they heard the words, how could there be two people in this first place?
"Gu Yan is the fifth-ranked existence among the Eight Great Masters of the previous generation, but the frightening thing is that he is also the youngest among the Eight Great Masters of the previous generation. It is not difficult to understand that he can become the number one."

"Then who is Lin Chu?"

"Wait, Lin Chu? Isn't that the fierce man who killed Liang Yulong?" Someone suddenly called out.

Immediately, many people shrank their eyes and thought of Lin Chu's name. In the past few days, his name has spread throughout the entire imperial capital, and even the huge cities near the imperial capital know Lin Chu's name. Killing Liang Yulong, who was a half-step Yuan fetus, and the latter's status is not low, this makes Lin Chu seem a little mysterious and legendary.At this time, it was tied for the first place with that Gu Family Gu Yan, which made many people curious.

To be ranked in the Eight Great Princes must be under the age of 25, and those who participated in this grand summer festival must be under the age of 30, so Gu Yan, Liu Jie and the dead Liang Yulong are all in this age group, and they can participate For this grand event, as for the other members of the Eight Great Princes of the previous generation, they were unable to participate because of age restrictions.

A figure flitted through the void and stood on the battle platform. His whole body was like a blazing flame, and an extremely hot feeling emanated from him, making people afraid to approach him.

Gu Yan, a member of the Gu family!He is also a rumored genius who has mastered the artistic conception of fire to a level of [-]%!

On the other side, Lin Chu's figure passed by like a breeze, and his feet seemed to be whirling with a breeze, supporting his body like a gust of wind, chic and unrestrained.

His eyes were calm and his face was as usual.Lin Chu stood quietly on the stage, and under the stage, countless eyes stared at him.

"This Lin Chu seems to be only in his teens, and his talent is really enviable." Many people said to themselves with eyelids trembling.

They can't see much of Lin Chu's pregnancy fixation, and even those who can see it will not despise them.Just kidding, being able to stand on stage and become the first person in the first round cannot be calculated by common sense.

"Next, I will announce the final competition rules." The old man in gray said lightly, and everyone fell silent.

With a move, the imperial list was put away, and the gray-clothed old man's voice sounded slowly, "The second round, the final. Each fights with his own opponent. The winner will become the master of one of the ten arenas. Those who lose Anyone can challenge the challenger, if they win, they will automatically become the challenger, otherwise they will be eliminated."

"Do you understand?" The gray-clothed old man looked at Lin Chu and other people who had advanced, and asked.

Everyone nodded.

"No. 1 fights against No. 20, No. [-] fights against No. [-], and so on."

Ranking first and last?Although this still cannot achieve absolute fairness, at least it is much better than the lottery method.

"In addition, after the top ten are determined in the finals, my Daxia royal family has generous rewards for the top ten, and you all have to use it to your heart's content." There was a smile on the face of the gray-clothed old man, Lin Chu Knowing the meaning of the other party's words in their hearts, they naturally hope that they will try their best to improve their rankings when they point out the rewards. If they want to choose the ten strongest people to step into Luoshui Ancient Abyss, if they choose a group of parallel importers, it will naturally not work.This is also the reason why the Great Xia royal family has not revealed the matter of Luoshui Guyuan for the time being. Once it is revealed, it is hard to say whether these people can fight with all their strength.After all, Luoshui Guyuan's temptation was great.

"boom!"

Above the void, there was a thunderous sound of war drums. With the sound of the war drums, Lin Chu and the others' eyes narrowed instantly, looking at their opponents one after another.

Tied for first place, Lin Chu's opponent is either No.20 or No.19.

Lin Chu stared at Liu Jie impressively, and the other party also looked at him. The eyes of the two intertwined, and an astonishing killing intent shot out!
