Jiang Chen is certainly not someone who fishes in troubled waters.
However, in the eyes of Jingfendian, Jiang Chen is very much like someone who fishes in troubled waters. First of all, he is a strange face, so others naturally have a feeling of distrust towards him. Secondly, he looks very young, and there is no way to look at him.
Like someone who can compete for the championship position.
Even if young people want to compete for the position of chief champion, they must be heirs of emperor-level forces. It is almost impossible for an ordinary young genius to become the chief champion.
If we divide the champions, we might have a chance to give it a try just to save face.
Therefore, in the eyes of the people in Jingfen Palace, Jiang Chen is undoubtedly someone suspected of fishing in troubled waters.
However, Jiang Chen didn't make too many arguments. Facts speak louder than words, and he directly put the deposit of 100 million Holy Spirit Stones on the table.
At any time, money is more convincing than any words.
Even if I am fishing in troubled waters, I have money, and if I have money, I can do whatever I want.
Even if he doesn't compete for the championship position, will the person who has obtained 100 million Holy Spirit Stones care about having the 10 million deducted?
Obviously he won't care.
In Danhuo City, there are not many young people who can easily produce 100 million Holy Spirit Stones. There must be a group of them.
However, these people may not be so willful.
The deacon of Jingfen Palace had a complicated expression. He glanced at Jiang Chen a few times. Although he still didn't trust Jiang Chen as usual, he really had no reason to refuse him if he could afford the deposit.
I had no choice but to follow the rules.
The receipt for the deposit, as well as the certificate of qualification to participate in the general champion selection, were actually issued to Jiang Chen, and he warned: "Six days later, I will officially come to participate in the general champion selection. Remember the time, if you miss the time, it will not expire."
The deposit will still be deducted 10% from you."
Although people don't trust Jiang Chen, he still has professional ethics. Everything that needs to be done has been done, and everything that needs to be told has been told. It doesn't matter what he said.
Jiang Chen also knew that people didn't trust him, so he didn't care. He just smiled, received the receipt and the qualification card, and prepared to leave with a smile.
Before I had walked a few steps, I heard a sarcastic sneer coming from behind: "It's really crazy these days. A young boy who is still young wants to participate in the bounty ring? Is it because I am ignorant, or has the world changed?"
"Hey, young people don't know how high the sky and the earth are, right?"
"Hey, you guys should stop saying a few words. If you have money, you have the right to be willful."
There is no doubt that Jiang Chen signed up at such a young age, which undoubtedly made others very unhappy. Most of the people who came to sign up for the bounty ring this time were old men, and some were middle-aged.
At least they all look older.
Only Jiang Chen's face looked like he was only in his twenties. This was undoubtedly a very dazzling presence at the registration site for the bounty arena.
Of course, there are also some powerful masters who did not come themselves, but sent their disciples or servants to sign up. This is also true.
Therefore, most people think that this young man may be signing up on behalf of his master or someone in his family, so there is no need to rush to attack them.
Jiang Chen was naturally indifferent to these reactions and didn't take them to heart at all.
This world has never been short of people who say sarcastic things. If everyone took their sarcastic words to heart, there would probably be very few people alive in this world, and they would all be pissed to death.
"Perhaps, next time I attend such a grand event, I should dress myself up a little older?" Jiang Chen also thought with a wry smile in his heart.
Just as he was about to walk out of Jingfen Hall, he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from outside the door.
Then someone exclaimed: "Oh my god, what did I see? That...that senior seems to be the Wushuang Emperor?"
"Who is the Wushuang Emperor?"
"Oh my god, how ignorant are you? You don't even know about Wushuang Emperor?"
"Tsk, tsk, Emperor Wushuang, he is the famous king of rogue cultivators in our northern regions. He is also one of the few rogue cultivators who has reached the imperial realm but has not formed his own force."
"Wushuang Emperor, he...he won't want to participate in our bounty arena, right?"
"It must be a coincidence that I passed by. Emperor Wushuang is a senior expert who became famous a thousand or two thousand years ago. He doesn't look down on this kind of bounty arena that only happens once in ten years, right?"
"This is a bounty arena that only happens once in ten years. Emperor-level warriors will occasionally appear, okay?"
"Very few, right? Only a few times in thousands of years, right?"
"Anyway, I think the Wushuang Emperor might be here to participate in the bounty ring."
"If you really participate in the bounty arena, then this bounty arena will definitely be very lively. People's names, tree shadows, just because of the name of the Wushuang Emperor, the people who come to participate in the bounty arena will definitely not
It will be less."
For a time, there were different opinions.
As soon as Jiang Chen walked out of the door, he heard the discussion and couldn't help but look in the direction where everyone was watching.
But he saw the back of a white-haired Xiao Ran, who happened to disappear into the distance.
Great Emperor?
It’s not that Jiang Chen has never met the Great Emperor and Emperor-level powerhouses, Jiang Chen has also dealt with him a lot. However, given the level of this bounty arena, if there is a Great Emperor-level powerhouse participating in the selection of the overall champion, it will definitely be very...
interesting.
However, Jiang Chen's rational mind felt that this seemed unrealistic.
At a level that only happens once in ten years, the powerful Emperor really has no interest in participating, right?
"Forget it, I'm participating in mine. I can't control who else participates and who doesn't." Jiang Chen shook his head and sighed inwardly.
However, deep down in his heart, Jiang Chen still hopes that there will really be powerful emperors participating. This will undoubtedly increase the gold content of this bounty arena.
If there is a powerful emperor as the finale, there will definitely be a lot of people participating in the bounties, and there will definitely be many high-level bounties.
At that time, it will also be an opportunity to make a fortune, and it will also be an opportunity to become famous.
Back at his residence, Jiang Chen had been thinking about Emperor Wushuang.
"Yan Yu, have you ever heard of Emperor Wushuang?"
Lin Yanyu was slightly surprised: "Master, I also heard someone mention the name Wushuang Emperor today. I heard that he plans to participate in the selection of the overall champion of this bounty arena? I also heard that he was invited by Jingfen Palace
For the finale, he doesn’t need to participate in the selection of the general champion at all, and directly gets a seat as the general champion. Moreover, he will serve as an important judge in the selection of other seats of the general champion.”
Jiang Chen was stunned. He hadn't heard that many rumors. In fact, when he went to sign up, all the rumors he heard along the way were just hearsay, and most of them were just speculation.
On the contrary, Lin Yanyu's information was more detailed.
Jiang Chen pondered and said: "So, is it true that this Wushuang Emperor participated in the bounty ring?"
"Well, it's probably true. Moreover, he will serve as an important judge and participate in the assessment to select other general championship positions."
"It seems that the powerful emperor really has an advantage. Only the chief champion can select the sub-champions. As the chief champion, he can also select other chief champions. He has very high authority." Jiang Chen also sighed.
But he didn't feel unbalanced. It was definitely not easy for someone to cultivate to the emperor level as a casual cultivator.
Such a person is naturally qualified to be exempted from selection and directly obtain a seat as the chief champion.
To put it bluntly, participating in this once-in-a-decade bounty competition as an emperor-level expert is actually aggrieved.
It's only out of condescension that people join this bounty ring.
"Master, I heard that the Wushuang Emperor seems to owe a favor to the Jingfen Palace. This participation may be to repay the favor." Lin Yanyu was not very sure about his information, so his tone was not particularly positive.
.
"Yan Yu, how much do you know about this Wushuang Emperor? I heard that he has not formed his own emperor-level force?" Jiang Chen was very curious.
Ordinary emperor-level warriors, even casual cultivators, will usually choose to form their own force if they practice to the emperor-level realm.
No emperor-level powerhouse would choose to live in obscurity for the rest of his life. The stronger he is, the more he hopes his talents will be continued and passed down.
Forming a force, recruiting disciples, and continuing one's own legacy is the only choice for most emperor-level powerhouses.
Generally speaking, there are really very few emperor-level experts who do not form their own emperor-level forces.
Of course, this kind of situation is also common in the vast Shenyuan Continent. Many people have weak personalities, or have not encountered good opportunities, or they have descendants of their own blood and do not need to establish a force and recruit disciples to continue their martial arts inheritance.
There are all these possibilities.
"Master, Emperor Wushuang is quite famous in the northern region of human territory. Most large sects are also quite afraid of Emperor Wushuang. I heard that the reason why he did not form an emperor-level force was because of an unexpected incident that year.
The Wushuang Emperor once lost to an emperor-level master, and there was an agreement between the two of them in their bet. Whoever loses will not be able to form an emperor-level force or establish a sect for the rest of his life."
"Is there such a thing?" Jiang Chen was shocked.
Establishing an emperor-level force is a big deal. There is a big difference between an emperor with his own power and an emperor without his own power.
An emperor with his own power will naturally have greater power if he has more people around him.
The more people around you, the more territory you occupy, and the more resources you can gain invisibly.
In terms of strength, connections, resources, and all kinds of invisible things, the gap between an emperor with his own power and an emperor without his own power will be huge.
"Master, although this Wushuang Emperor has no power of his own, most people don't dare to provoke him. As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. I heard that many emperors of first-level sects do not dare to offend Wushuang Emperor easily.
." Lin Yanyu sighed, "If a casual cultivator can reach the level of the Unparalleled Emperor, he is definitely a winner in life. However, there seems to be another version of the rumor about him not forming an emperor-level force."
"What?" Jiang Chen suddenly became interested.
To Jiang Chen, the emperors who were cultivators were much more attractive than the many emperors who had their own power. Jiang Chen unconsciously regarded such people as the ones he could win over.
