“Consider yourself lucky.” Jiang Beixuan glanced at Chu Yunfan and snorted.
Chu Yunfan simply sneered in response. In the eyes of ordinary people, Jiang Beixuan was indeed strong. He could even subdue The Outlaws. His strength was indeed above them.
However, this was nothing to Chu Yunfan. If Lin Shaoyu had not stopped him, he would definitely let the other party know his true strength.
Seeing that the two of them had stopped fighting, the guests who were watching the show heaved a sigh of relief. However, they were a little disappointed. In the end, there was no show for them to watch.
Not long after, the Heavenly Dragon Villa disciples came to guide Chu Yunfan and Jiang Beixuan into the main venue. At this moment, the main venue was already in full swing.
The banquet had been planned according to the traditional Chinese style. Each person had a small table which was ladened with all kinds of delicacies. It was extremely luxurious. There were also waiters constantly shuttling around, serving these famous big shots in various fields of the Federation.
Chu Yunfan was arranged to sit at the front. Not far away was the host of the birthday banquet, the Heavenly Dragon Elder’s seat. Seated around the elder were the various upper echelons of the Heavenly Dragon Villa and the various big shots of the Federation.
There were a total of ten seats in this region, but when Chu Yunfan really arrived, he realized that these ten seats were not fully occupied. There were only three people in total.
Other than Chu Yunfan, the remaining two people were acquaintances of his. One of them was Jiang Beixuan.
Other than Jiang Beixuan, there was another person who was waiting quietly. This person was none other than the most outstanding disciple of Stellaris sect’s current generation, Feng Tianyuan.
When Feng Tianyuan saw Chu Yunfan and Jiang Beixuan walking over, he asked, “Where’s Jiang Lingxiao? Why didn’t he come?”
Jiang Beixuan’s expression immediately turned ugly again. Jiang Lingxiao, Jiang Lingxiao, Jiang Lingxiao. Everyone only ever remembered Jiang Lingxiao. No one remembered him at all.
“Hmph!”
Jiang Beixuan snorted coldly and had no intention of answering. He just sat in his seat.
Chu Yunfan quickly figured out why only three people were here even though there were ten spots. The reason was very simple. They had been intercepted. It probably had something to do with Jiang Beixuan or Feng Tianyuan.
If Chu Yunfan was not strong enough, then one of the people who were intercepted would definitely be him.
The two of them began to block out the other guests. It seemed that there were ten spots and no one interfered with each other, but many things were not so simple. Cultivation was like sailing against the current, not advancing but retreating instead.
It was like a thousand-person dragon boat race. In the end, there were only a few who would reach the top. Their peers, seniors, and juniors were all competitors.
The goal of these people was to one day possess supernatural powers, but there were very little people who could do it. The more they cultivated, the fewer resources they had. The fewer competitors they had, the more resources they could get.
The competition was never held at the last moment, but it had started from the beginning. Both Jiang Beixuan and Feng Tianyuan knew this very well. It was only then that Chu Yunfan finally came to his senses.
The two side grew up in different environments. Chu Yunfan had been brought up in an ordinary family. To him, resources did not really need to be fought over because everyone was the same. To fight a little more or a little less would not affect them too much.
Whether it was the strength of their teachers, cultivation resources, or money, most of the people in the entire class and even the entire school were similar.
However, Jiang Beixuan and Feng Tianyuan were different. They had been trained as geniuses since they were young. Their competitors were not the common people. Their opponents were world-famous geniuses, and high-quality resources afford to them were even less compared.
They had been competing with each other for more than ten to twenty years. This habit had already been carved into their bones. Not only were they competing for their own opportunities, but they also had to break the opportunities of others. In the future, they would have one less great enemy.
Chu Yunfan truly finally understood now. What was a world of great competition? This was a world of great competition. The number of heaven-gifted geniuses was unprecedented. Similarly, the competition was also unprecedentedly cruel.
Advance or retreat.
There was no such thing as advancing together. It was a situation where one advanced while the other retreated.
“Chu Yunfan?” Feng Tianyuan said with a faint smile as he looked at Chu Yunfan.
Feng Tianyun did not know that this was the second time he and Chu Yunfan were crossing paths. However, it was already the second time for Chu Yunfan.
Back then, Feng Tianyuan faced the students of Federation University alone without every changing his expression. He was full of vigor. Even if he had met Chu Yunfan at that time, he would not remember him.
But now, more than a year had passed, and Chu Yunfan was qualified to be on equal footing with Feng Tianyun. The wonders of the world could only lie in this.
“This is the first time we’ve met. I didn’t expect you to be able to hold on until this point.”
Feng Tianyuan was speaking from the bottom of his heart. Ten Heaven’s Pride Invites ahd been sent out. It did not matter who they were given to in the beginning. The most important thing was who got them in the end.
That was the most important thing.
The ten cards that were sent out back then, after a few ups and downs, only three people showed up. This made everything crystal clear.
“This is the first time we’ve met? Actually, this is already the second time,” Chu Yunfan said as he smiled faintly.
Feng Tianyuan was stunned. He could not remember when he had met Chu Yunfan. With his memory and Chu Yunfan’s popularity, as long as he had met him, he could not have forgotten.
“Is it strange that I came here?” Chu Yunfan asked as he raised his eyebrows.
“Do you really not know, or do you pretend not to?” Feng Tianyuan said.
Chu Yunfan looked at Feng Tianyuan with a hint of doubt, not knowing what he was talking about.
“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, you’re already here, so I’ll tell you,” Feng Tianyuan said, “This time, in addition to the usual guidance, the Heavenly Dragon Elder will also be offering a peak Innate monster’s inner core as a reward. The owners of the Heaven’s Pride Invites will have a chance to obtain it. Whoever wins in the end will obtain this inner core as a reward.”
Feng Tianyu’s words caused Chu Yunfan to breathe in a lungful of cold air. The value of a peak Innate monster’s inner core was worth billions. Although it could not compare to the inner core that Chu Yunfan had obtained previously, it was a close behind.
The inner core that Chu Yunfan obtained previously, what kind of situation was that? He jadhad used it as a miniaturized nuclear weapon, but he had not consumed it. It could be seen how rare such an item was.
