3 The Emperor’s Chess!
He had killed six Divine Lord phantoms with a single slash!
Chu Feng’s strength shocked everyone present.
Especially those who knew Chu Feng well. At this moment, their faces were filled with disbelief.
Huangpu You’s eyes narrowed!
“So strong!!”
“It’s only been a few days, but he’s actually become so much stronger?! Is he a high-level Divine Lord?”
“What a difficult fellow!”
Ji Changfeng’s pupils shrank.
“What a monster…”
Bing Yao was even more incredulous.
“This lecher… Half a year ago, he wasn’t even a divine-grade! In just half a year, he’s already a Third-Turn Divine Lord? How is that possible!”
Bing Yao was extremely powerful, so she could naturally easily determine the approximate power of Chu Feng’s slash just now. However, the more this was the case, the more shocked she became!
Even in the Starlight God Dynasty, such a monster had never appeared!
What had he experienced?!
…
Everyone was shocked by Chu Feng’s slash.
On the other hand, Chu Feng did not have the time to think about it.
Above his head, countless surging lightning bolts had gathered.
Chu Feng’s face turned green.
“Damn! Is it so powerful? Not to mention a Second or Third-Turn Divine Lord, can a Fifth or Sixth-Turn Divine Lord withstand it?”
“I was just saving someone. Do you have to do this? Besides, those who don’t know are innocent. No one told me before I came that I was not allowed to barge in!”
“You have to be reasonable!”
Shu Wanjuan was saved now, but Chu Feng felt as if he had fallen into a huge pit.
He howled and scratched his ears and cheeks.
But he still had to think of a way to save himself!
“My Grass Saber is filled with dense vitality. I wonder if it can withstand it… Sigh, it’s difficult!”
“Eh? I wonder if the Lesser Teleportation Sky Formation Mirror I obtained from the Heavy Earth Heavenly King can directly move me out of the range of the lightning?”
“However, this is equivalent to telling the people from the Sacred Land that I killed the Heavy Earth Heavenly King…”
“Or should I use the Big Bang again? Fighting the lightning head-on might be able to offset most of the impact.”
“However, I have to expose this trump card of mine. The other party has many enemies… What should I do?!”
He thought of a few plans.
Chu Feng was dissatisfied.
However, when everyone’s attention was distracted by the lightning, no one noticed. Even Chu Feng himself did not feel anything… The black ring in his sleeve inadvertently flickered with a black light.
The next moment, the lightning above his head seemed to have sensed a supreme order and began to dissipate rapidly!
The dark sky instantly became clear.
Even the fog that enveloped his head seemed to have become much thinner.
“Eh? What’s going on?”
Chu Feng looked up in surprise.
“This lightning has been moved by my speech. It’s not planning to strike me anymore?”
The others looked at each other.
They had no idea what had happened.
However, Chu Feng did not care about that. He ran first!
In a flash, he slipped off the chessboard and arrived in the camp of the Green Emperor’s army.
It couldn’t be helped. Compared to the other side, there were fewer enemies here… This was Bing Yao!
He had heard this woman’s incredulous voice clearly.
Were they looking down on him?
Why can’t I improve a little faster?!
The next moment, Chu Feng had already arrived at the Green Emperor’s camp.
Yu and the others had also arrived early.
However, before Chu Feng could speak, a loud voice sounded in his ears.
Alignment selection completed. Assessor Chu Feng, congratulations on successfully joining the Green Emperor’s camp. Current military merit rank: Soldier (0/10,000)
Chu Feng’s eyes widened.
“What? Joining just like that? I don’t even know what you’re doing!”
At that moment, Shu Wanjuan came over and patted Chu Feng’s shoulder.
“Brother, you’re really a good friend! I’ll remember your kindness!”
The corners of Chu Feng’s mouth twitched. He could not be bothered with this fellow and asked, “Can someone tell me what’s going on here? What are you all doing?”
Shu Wanjuan was not angry at being ignored. Instead, he pointed at the stone tablet not far away.
“Look, it’s written all over it. You’ll know when you take a look. To put it bluntly, we’re just chess pieces in the hands of the two Emperors!”
Chu Feng did not say anything.
Hearing this, he walked straight to the stone tablet.
There were three words on the stone tablet.
The Emperor’s Chess!
Chu Feng raised an eyebrow.
“The Emperor’s Chess… What a domineering name.”
He read on.
The Rules of the Emperor’s Chess
All the soldiers from both camps are divided into four ranks: soldiers, generals, commanders, and high-level kings. All the soldiers are only allowed to play once in each round of the chess game.
Every round, both sides will randomly send out all the soldiers of a certain rank to fight each other. One side will either die or escape back to the camp, and the other side will win.
Each round of the Emperor’s Chess will last for a total of three rounds. It’s a best-of-three game. All soldiers can obtain a large number of military merits according to their contribution. Military merits can be exchanged for treasures in the military camp’s treasure vault.
When the entire tournament ends, the camp with the most victories will receive a mysterious reward!
…
There were many rules, but these were the main ones.
At this moment, everyone followed him.
Shu Wanjuan reminded him.
“I don’t know how many years ago this rule was from. There are no high-level kings anymore. The highest rank on both sides is commander.”
Chu Feng nodded and rubbed his chin.
“The rules of this chess game remind me of a story in my hometown… Tian Ji racing horses!”
“Since it’s a best of three, in other words, the most perfect situation is… If our side can use the weakest soldiers to fight the other party’s commander, then use the commander to kill the other party’s general, and the general to kill the other party’s soldiers and obtain two victories, does that mean that we’ve won this round of the Emperor’s Chess?”
“This rule isn’t too difficult.”
Shu Wanjuan nodded.
“That makes sense, but…”
The next moment, Bing Yao’s cold voice could be heard.
“That makes sense, but the truth is far from as simple as you think!”
“Firstly, in every round of the Battle of the Emperor, neither side knows what rank of soldiers the other will send out. It’s very difficult to make a perfect judgment. If one is not careful, it might even help the other party.”
“Secondly, you have to know that the number of soldiers of each rank is not infinite. If all the soldiers of this rank are exhausted in a certain round of the Emperor’s Chess, what should we do next? We will be easily targeted!”
“No one knows how many rounds there are in this battle. At the very least, we’ve already experienced it more than ten times, and we’re still far from the end!”
“Thirdly, the Emperor’s Chess might be entertainment to those two Emperors, but to us, every time is a life-and-death battle. If we die, we will really die!”
“If you were a soldier and I asked you to fight a commander, would you be willing?”
Just as Bing Yao finished speaking, the atmosphere instantly fell to a freezing point.
This woman seemed to have a frost buff.
Seeing that everyone was a little awkward, Shu Wanjuan hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.
“Chu Feng, let me introduce you. This is my master! She’s one of the Vice Directors of the Heavenly Book Academy! She’s also the only commander among these physical soldiers who joined our camp later. Bing…”
Chu Feng interrupted Shu Wanjuan’s introduction and sneered.
“We meet again. Old woman, oh no, it’s the respected Her Excellency Bing Yao…”
“You’ve met before?!”
Shu Wanjuan’s eyes widened.
