June 7th in the Kunlun Calendar.
The first battle of the Genius Conference, the hunting competition officially begins.
At dawn, Lu Chen went to Bagua Square. After receiving a counting card from the staff, he waited in the square.
The counting card looks like a watch and is strapped to the wrist. It has a small screen on it that displays the points number.
"Little brother, we meet again."
Suddenly an obscene voice came from behind. Lu Chen looked back and found that it was the old beggar who had sold him the rules of the conference before. His face instantly darkened.
"Old man, if you still dare to show your face in front of me, aren't you afraid that I will chop you with my sword?"
Lu Chen stared at the old beggar with unkind eyes, and the latter chuckled: "Hehehehe, little brother, you have become the target of public criticism now, how can you be in the mood to attack me."
He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, then he came closer and said coquettishly: "Little brother, I have a way to take you out of the Holy City. Are you interested?"
"Not interested." Lu Chen rolled his eyes at him. He really thought I was being taken advantage of. I have suffered a loss once and don't I have a long memory?
"Little brother, don't refuse in a hurry. Let's do this. To show my sincerity, I will give you some benefits first." He took out a jade slip from his arms, put it into Lu Chen's hand and said, "This jade slip contains , there are traces of five late-stage Grand Master monsters in the hunting assessment, if you kill them, you will definitely get the first place!"
Lu Chen checked the jade slip suspiciously, and found that it was indeed information about five monsters.
But after suffering a loss once, he didn't believe a word of the old beggar's words.
and……
He had met the old beggar twice. Even if the old beggar really had the means, he would not take the risk of offending Mu Bailong and take him out. This felt strange no matter how he thought about it.
"Little brother, consider this jade slip as a meeting gift. Contact me when you figure it out."
"Remember, I am the only one in the entire Holy City who can take you out, not Fairy Fuxi, nor the young prince of the Ji family."
After the old beggar finished speaking, he disappeared into the crowd. Seeing him selling jade slips to other contestants with a mean smile on his face, Lu Chen's mouth twitched. This old guy can really deceive everyone!
Later, the contestants gathered.
A warrior wearing silver armor appeared where Mu Ningning was standing yesterday.
"Dear contestants, I will randomly teleport you to the hunting ground later."
"The time for the hunting competition ends at 10 a.m. on the 10th. Once the time is up, you will be teleported back to Bagua Square."
"You have already seen the rules of points before, so I won't go into details one by one. I will only mention three things to note. Please listen carefully."
"Article 1, during the competition, you are not allowed to use the non-directional teleportation array, otherwise you will be killed by the supervisor on the spot!"
"The second rule is that you are allowed to abandon the game midway. If you encounter an unbeatable monster and want to give up, crush your counting card and it will take you back to Bagua Square."
"Article 3: Infighting is allowed in the hunting grounds, so please pay attention to your own safety."
"The hunting conference has officially begun. I wish everyone good luck."
The silver-armored warrior waved his hand, and the Bagua Square lit up with colorful teleportation lights, and the contestants disappeared one after another.
Coincidentally, Lu Chen was teleported to the place where he met Mu Qingyi.
"It seems that there is a teleportation array in this counting card."
Lu Chen looked at the counting cards and found nothing.
"Xiaoqing, Kunkun."
Lu Chen called out the two little guys and asked, "Where are the ten late-stage Grand Master monsters?"
Each monster in the later stage of Grand Master can accumulate 1,000 points. If you kill them all, you can accumulate 10,000 points. Not to mention firmly sitting in the first place, there is absolutely no problem in ranking in the top ten.
Xiaoqing closed her eyes and felt it, and then said: "There are 4 in the north, 4 in the east, and one each in the south and west."
Xiaoqing is one of the four ancient holy beasts, and her ability to perceive monsters is extremely terrifying. Except for the forbidden areas hidden in the clouds and mist, she knows exactly where the monsters are in the entire Kunlun Mountains.
Lu Chen planned to kill the 4 in the east first, and then go to the north.
But at this moment, a harsh sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from the west. He turned around suddenly and saw a dark arrow cutting through the void and heading straight for him.
Lu Chen frowned slightly, grabbed the nameless sword and slashed forward.
boom!
The black arrow was directly split into two halves, and then exploded instantly, turning into two masses of black mist and rushing into Lu Chen's body.
Lu Chen frowned slightly, immediately held his breath and concentrated, locked the black mist in his body, and directly refined it.
After the black mist was refined, it turned into the purest spiritual power, nourishing Lu Chen's soul.
"Bold!!"
There was a roar in the forest, and then a young man in black robes was seen running towards Lu Chen like an arrow from the string. During the flight, he held the bow in his left hand, stretched the bowstring into a full moon with his right hand, and shot three arrows in a row. .
Bang bang bang! !
Three pitch-black arrows shot out of the air and turned into three small black snakes with a bang.
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and immediately recognized the other party's identity - a disciple of the Soul Palace.
A sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he directly used the soul control technique, and the terrifying power of the soul turned into a long knife.
The long knife cut through the void, directly cutting the three small snakes in half, and then roared straight towards the black-robed monk.
The face of the black-robed monk changed drastically. He never dreamed that the killing move he was most proud of would be broken so easily by Lu Chen. Looking at the long sword coming at him, he was extremely afraid.
The black-robed monk bit the tip of his tongue, spit out a mouthful of blood mist, and turned it into a blood arrow. He pulled it hard with his right hand and turned it into a full moon.
Buzz! !
The blood arrow shot out of the air, and its speed was so fast that it drew an afterimage in the void, and the long knives collided with each other in an instant.
Boom! !
With a shocking loud noise, the blood arrow was split into two pieces.
The black-robed monk's face turned pale, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. The arrow just now was smelted with blood essence, and it was mixed with the origin of his soul, but now, it was directly chopped into pieces by the opponent! !
He was frightened and terrified, and he didn't dare to delay any longer at this moment, so he turned around and ran away.
"You want to leave now, don't you think it's too late?"
Lu Chen raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, raised his right hand, and slapped it with a fierce palm. With a click, the black-robed monk was blown hundreds of feet away, and finally stopped after hitting a big tree. .
The black-robed monk spat out a mouthful of blood again. This time, there was a trace of coldness in his blood.
And layers of frost appeared on his body.
But just when Lu Chen was about to interrogate the other party, the black-robed monk suddenly raised his head and shouted, shooting a flying sword from his mouth. The flying sword was entangled with the terrifying power of the soul, and it went straight to Lu Chen's throat!
