Chapter 1139 1138. Prizes and Calculations

This banquet was indeed held for Lu Yuan.

in other words.

I made this plate of dumplings just for this dish of vinegar.

But Lu Yuan was not the only one who came.

Of course, this phenomenon is extremely normal. If Lu Yuan visited alone or with a few friends, the host, no matter it was a family, a sect, or an academy, would only need a cup of tea to respond. But since it was a banquet and they had agreed to get to know each other, there would naturally have to be people who could show up to support and smooth things over, in addition to the host and the guests. In other words, there had to be at least three parties present to ensure the smooth running of any banquet.

So, take that into consideration.

This top family.

Known as the Xuanming Zhang Family by the outside world.

A family that dominates the area, with three saint-level supreme ancestors, seven immortal-level supremes and two spiritual-level supremes.

The decision was made by the clan leader who was at the level of the Supreme Immortal.

This is why the scale of the banquet was expanded and restrictions were relaxed as much as possible.

To put it more directly, it is to summon all the geniuses who had the intention of contacting before, and don't wait to gradually contact them in the future, including those geniuses that the legitimate daughters and concubines of the family like, and bring them here to have a look. On the one hand, they can use the power of these geniuses to put pressure on Lu Yuan and let Lu Yuan witness with his own eyes the Zhang family's abundance of talents. On the other hand, they can also use these geniuses to test Lu Yuan, feel out Lu Yuan's bottom line, and judge whether Lu Yuan is worthy of being recruited. After all, sometimes it is really inconvenient for them as elders to take action, and if they can't win after taking action, it would be even more embarrassing. It is better to let those geniuses who are about the same age as Lu Yuan take the field. In fact, conversely, this is also a chance for these geniuses to let them step on Lu Yuan's name to get to the top. After all, Lu Yuan's reputation is still very amazing. He has won 35 games in a row, and all the victories were against the Supreme Heaven.

It's like a prize pool.

When Lu Yuan won his first victory, he had already made his mark.

However, no one would be free to come and discuss this with Lu Yuan.

But when Lu Yuan won his second time, the prize pool had already started to increase.

With the third win, the prize pool continues to increase.

Well known.

There are many ways to flatter someone.

There are many ways to belittle someone.

It even gave rise to the derogatory behavior of "flattering to death".

In other words, it is excessive flattery, blowing you up like a balloon, and then poking you with a needle. The consequences are absolutely explosive and enough to ruin anyone's reputation.

Moreover, the special feature of flattery is that it is difficult to distinguish.

If you suppress all flattery without distinguishing between friends and enemies.

This is undoubtedly a signal to the outside world that he is guilty.

But if left alone.

The result is being exposed, cursed or ridiculed.

Therefore, although Lu Yuan won every time and fought against the Supreme Heavenly Masters, this could not stop many geniuses in the universe from becoming interested in him. In other words, it could not stop many Supreme Heavenly Masters in the universe from becoming interested in him. They wanted to fight with him, reap the benefits, or be stepped on by Lu Yuan to get to the top.

But overall, the risk is surprisingly small.

If you lose.

Although it is a very shameful thing for a dignified Heavenly Supreme to lose to an Earthly Supreme, and a lower-level Earthly Supreme at that, it will also turn Lu Yuan's 35-game winning streak into a 36-game winning streak, because more than half of Lu Yuan's 35-game winning streak were provided by these people. However, for these challengers, there are so many people who have been defeated before, and there are more than 30 of them. Even if I lose, I will not be considered a fake in the eyes of the world.

But what if I win?

If I win, it means I am better than Lu Yuan.

At least it's temporarily strong.

First of all, Lu Yuan’s rise has been recognized by the vast majority of people.

Defeated by a future Nine Emperors.

Strictly speaking, it's not shameful.

It is not shameful to defeat a future Nine Emperors.

At least I'll have something to brag about in the future.

Just like a time assassin in the Go world, the only two victories were of full value and it is true that they were not a loss no matter how you look at it.

Secondly, being able to forge a bond with Lu Yuan, or become friends, or establish other relationships, such as marriage, is also a very good choice. What if it can be used in the future?

Finally, the fact of winning itself means that the winner is stronger than the more than 30 Heavenly Supremes that Lu Yuan defeated before. Although it may be a bit offensive, it is also a journey of fame. In this vast world, kindness has no value and no one will be moved by it. Most people still admire strength.

Survival of the fittest, the winner is king.

This is another explanation for the law of the jungle.

Therefore, challengers come in an endless stream.

They did help Lu Yuan in his 35-game winning streak.

As for those unknown people.

He is not worthy of fighting or sparring with Lu Yuan at all.

In other words, the premise of fighting and sparring is always that both sides have made a move. Those self-righteous geniuses could not even withstand the shock of Lu Yuan's eyes which contained spiritual power. In essence, it was not called a fight, but being killed in seconds. No matter what a person who was killed in seconds said, it could not change the fact that he was killed in seconds. Therefore, there were many people who challenged Lu Yuan, but the thirty-five who could truly become Lu Yuan's record were all supreme heavenly powerful men.

However, these losers are not without effect.

People like Lu Yuan have combat power that directly rivals that of the family ancestor.

Even if you win.

There is no need to worry about being assassinated.

In other words, no one could assassinate him.

Even if it is a frame-up, we don't have the ability to do so.

After all, frame-up is usually used under the premise that the strength is similar. If one side is stronger than the other, the other side would have been destroyed long ago and would not be kept alive for the New Year. In the stalemate between the two sides, Lu Yuan defeated the Heavenly Supreme Ancestor of one side, which means that Lu Yuan can defeat the Heavenly Supreme Ancestor of the other side. Even if he cannot win, even if there was a phenomenon of slacking in the previous record, there is no problem in competing. If you want to frame someone, you need the Heavenly Supreme Ancestor on the opposite side to sneak into this side's territory, and then launch a sneak attack on Lu Yuan, who is as strong as himself, on this side's territory, and end the battle in a short time.

To put it harshly.

If only this infiltrated Supreme Heavenly Lord had this strength.

He can come and kill with great fanfare.

Furthermore, there are two risks in doing so.

The first one was killed by Lu Yuan and his mortal enemy who came after hearing the news.

After all, this is on someone else's territory.

It is equivalent to jumping into the encirclement on your own initiative.

Being surrounded and eaten is simply what you deserve.

No family would be stingy with the massive resources used to activate the formation, and to eliminate a mortal enemy that they would not have the chance to eliminate under normal circumstances, and that enemy is at the level of a Heavenly Supreme. Because resources alone cannot create a Heavenly Supreme, it is worth it no matter from which angle you look at it.

The second was that he failed to assassinate the enemy, but instead angered Lu Yuan, forcing Lu Yuan completely into the opponent's camp, standing on the same front with the opponent and launching a counterattack against himself and his family.

Mentioned before.

The two sides must be evenly matched.

The opponent now has an additional fighter at the level of Heavenly Supreme.

This gap is enough for one of the parties to launch a genocide war.

Therefore, the accusation of frame-up is completely nonsense.

Even if the pit is dug, it can only accommodate a tiger at most.

Regarding Lu Yuan, the unexpected visitor.

There is absolutely no way to calculate it.

If the fish really dies and the net breaks, the net will break, but the fish will most likely not die.

So, the risk is too great.

No one would play such tricks.

Therefore, for the loser, since there is no need to consider Lu Yuan’s safety, what he needs to consider is naturally the face issue. How to save his own face becomes the first and foremost difficulty.

Generally speaking, there are two solutions to this problem.

The first one is to get rid of Lu Yuan.

The second is to get rid of other people.

It is obviously impossible to get rid of Lu Yuan. Even the opponents are afraid of pushing Lu Yuan, the variable, to the camp of their mortal enemy, and thus choose to give up. For any family that has been challenged by Lu Yuan, it is really unnecessary to fight to the death with Lu Yuan. Moreover, fighting to the death will not only damage their own reputation, but Lu Yuan's desperate attack may also replace a Heavenly Supreme. In this known situation, or predictable phenomenon, it is undoubtedly not worth the loss, and it is easy to give the opponent the opportunity to launch a war of genocide against them.

Besides, the loss is already lost.

I'm almost losing all my face.

You can't just throw away your bottom line and dignity, right?
Therefore, there seem to be two options, but in fact there is only one left.

That is to get rid of the others.

of course.

This solution is not a solution in the physical sense.

It means shutting these people up.

Therefore, a strange logical chain was formed: as long as everyone lost, even if they laughed at each other, it would be nothing more than the pot calling the kettle black. Instead, everyone could form a new force and insist that Lu Yuan was very strong, indirectly indicating that they who were defeated by Lu Yuan were not weak, and in this way, they could deal with the rumors from the outside world.

And as this strange logical chain continues to develop.

It mutated into another appearance.

A look that is hard to understand.

In other words, these defeated families actually stood firmly in the camp that praised Lu Yuan, and even deliberately promoted Lu Yuan's reputation. Especially after Lu Yuan finished the first three games, this strange camp was formed without Lu Yuan even having to worry about it.

To put it more vividly.

It's like someone who has been shocked by chewing gum and then tries hard to fool other people who have not been hurt, so that these people will also be shocked.

This is also because Lu Yuan only fought thirty-five battles.

This is one of the reasons why his fame has spread throughout the world.

However, although there were thirty-five battles as a prelude, Lu Yuan did not use similar means such as One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones in this process. He used more of the power of space and Red Dust Silk, and even rarely used Red Dust Silk, only once when he was dealing with a more difficult Spiritual Grade Heavenly Supreme, who was a young patriarch who claimed to be from a certain top family. After all, this Spiritual Grade Heavenly Supreme was a little too unethical. Maybe he himself did, but his protector obviously did not. After Lu Yuan admitted defeat, he directly attacked Lu Yuan, which angered Lu Yuan. He threw a piece of Red Dust Silk over and directly drained the protector of the Immortal Grade Heavenly Supreme into a mummy, and then turned it into powder. He did not even let his soul be reborn, and finally walked away. This was the only time Red Dust Silk was used.

Afterwards, this spiritual level supreme being did not retaliate.

It can only be said that most of the young patriarchs of the top families still have brains. Whether it is Qing Yanjing, or Mahatian who can endure humiliation, or the one Lu Yuan met, they are not ordinary people.

of course.

Maybe it has nothing to do with whether they have brains or not.

Instead, it has to do with their pride.

They can accept failure.

But never allow others to tarnish this failure.

In other words, in today's world, being unable to afford to lose is more restrained and more despised than failure, because when this label is put on a person, it means that there are no restrictions and anyone can use any means to target this person. After all, you are the first to lack martial ethics, and in any regulated behavior, this lack of martial ethics is a fatal flaw.

However, no matter what the reason.

The fact that there is no revenge is a fact.

Although Lu Yuan would not thank him, he would not care about it either.

After all, when it comes down to it, it was the other party who did not follow the rules.

Not caring is the greatest tolerance.

Therefore, with these achievements as a foundation, Lu Yuan was able to come into contact with the Xuanming Zhang family and receive an invitation from the Xuanming Zhang family as soon as he arrived in this continent named Xuanwu Continent.

Unfortunately, the Xuanming Zhang family is still a bit lacking in quality.

There are many unique skills in the family.

But the quality is still a bit lacking.

Although the Xuanming Zhang family might have some higher-level skills that could compete with the Great Buddha Sutra, Lu Yuan was unable to consult them due to the limitations of the situation. After all, he was a guest, and he had no way of bringing up the matter of a bet unless the head of the Xuanming Zhang family mentioned the matter of a fight.

As for the idea of wanting to comprehend the technique, just say it out loud...

Strictly speaking, you can...

But the Xuanming Zhang family is not without countermeasures...

Kung Fu involves the foundation of a family. Our Zhang family has kindly invited you to a banquet with complete etiquette and without any mistakes or omissions. You won't take away the foundation of our Zhang family without paying anything in return, right?
It is morally untenable!

So, it seems that the Zhang family has bowed their heads.

In fact, the Zhang family only paid for one meal.

This would avoid the unknown losses that might be gambled and won by Lu Yuan.

However, the head of the Zhang family is also a smart man.

The benefits that should be given should still be given.

Just a different way.

At the banquet, a young earth supreme who had been arranged proposed that he wanted to see everyone's abilities. Then, the head of the Zhang family agreed and took out three heavenly supreme-level martial arts and one local supreme-level martial arts, including a series of resources, as prizes. The meaning was that there were so many geniuses present, and since they wanted to compete with each other, there had to be prizes. There would be no first in literature and no second in martial arts. The third place would get the local supreme-level martial arts, the second place would get a heavenly supreme-level martial arts, and the first place would have the priority to choose two of the three heavenly supreme-level martial arts as gifts from the Zhang family, and the remaining one would be given to the second place winner.

That’s indeed well said.

The amount of money is indeed not small.

But if we follow Lu Yuan’s rules.

He could easily drain the inventory of this top family.

He defeated thirty-five Heavenly Supremes.

He has no less than a hundred volumes of the Supreme Heavenly Martial Arts in his hands.

If you want, you can start another top family.

However, for some things, it is best to quit while you are ahead.

Since they have given me face.

If there is no grudge, there is no need to throw your face to the ground and then step on it.

Lu Yuan only carried these two books of martial arts.

Come back fully loaded.
