After Fishing For 10 Years, I Became A Saint Without Knowing How To Raise Beasts - Chapter 143

A hunt?

Yuchi looked at the Saintess, who was clearly absorbed in her own thoughts.

He was slightly puzzled.

It was obvious that Yu Shengyun had done a lot of research on Yuchi in advance, especially for an angel who had probably never met a member of the human race before.

She had been able to put down her pride to study some of the living habits and preferences of a human. Therefore, she had transformed herself into a form that she felt was the most attractive to humans.

!!

In that sense, her attitude made hertruly worthy of being the angel race’s Saintess.

Seeing that she had gone to some lengths, Yuchi knew that this hunt was definitely not as simple as one might think. Still, Yuchi was rather curious about it.

“Senior, may I explain?”

“Go ahead.”

After Yu Shengyun’s briefing, Yuchi gained a rough understanding of this so-called hunt.

There were three questions to consider with regard to this hunt.

First, when was the hunt?

Second, what were the rules of the hunt?

Third, what were the rewards for the hunt?

Yu Shengyun answered the three questions clearly.

The hunt would be held one-and-a-half years from now. She did not know the exact location of the hunt yet, other than it being in a mountain range.

The hunt’s rules were very simple. The myriad races would send their clansmen under the age of 1,000 to a vast mountain range, where they would search for beacons.

The beacon was a special gem the size of a palm.

The members of the myriad races participating in the hunt could either end their hunt immediately after obtaining the beacon, or they could continue to search for more beacons.

The beacon could be traded or snatched before the contestants ended their hunt. Once the beacon was submitted to the hunt’s authorities, it would be safe and could not be snatched.

The hunt’s rewards did not depend on the ranking.

The hunt was only about how many beacons each race obtained.

The beacons could be exchanged for different things. If one had a large number of beacons, they could exchange them for some shocking treasures that could greatly increase the strength of their bodies, or provide other different improvements.

That was the general outline.

Once Yu Shengyun finished speaking, she looked at Yuchi rather calmly while glancing at the surrounding scenery from the corner of her eyes.

…

There were mountains everywhere around Hanjiang, and numerous snow-covered pine trees.

Yu Shengyun was uncertain as to whether Yuchi would participate in the hunt.

After all, the hunt was not really a hunt. Perhaps it was better to call it a hunt for the myriad races.

Finding a single beacon and retiring from the hunt after that was simple enough. However, the rewards that one could purchase with a single beacon were quite lacking.

However, if one decided to search for more beacons, the dangers of the hunt would multiply.

As one accumulated more and more beacons, one would become a bigger and bigger target for others, and might even be ganged up upon.

As for why this seemingly absurd hunt had appeared?

The reason for this was to function as a check and balance system between the myriad races.

The participants of this competition were all below 1,000 years old, which were considered young talents.

Death was an inevitable thing.

In essence, the objective of the hunt was for the adults to watch their children kill each other. The stronger children would bring more glory to their races, while the weaker children would quickly withdraw from the hunt to safeguard their own lives.

It was originally a way to redistribute benefits.

If a terrifyingly powerful genius really emerged from one of the myriad races, this hunt would provide a chance for the other races to compete with the myriad races in another fashion.

Obviously, in the eyes of Yu Huaqing, Yuchi was a terrifying genius of the human race. If the human race itself was a terrifying race, Yu Huaqing would definitely not be soft-hearted toward Yuchi and would find a way to kill him.

However, in reality, the human race did not have any other experts other than Yuchi.

In fact, it was not just the angel race. All the other races disdained the human race.

They knew one thing…

Which was that Yuchi alone was not enough to develop the human race and bring it to greater heights. No matter how powerful Yuchi was, he was still just one person.

Inviting him to participate in this hunt was more about making him one of the hunt’s attractions.

What kind of result will a poor genius from a trashy race like the human race achieve in this hunt?

If one of the myriad races’ geniuses were killed by this human genius…

Would it cause an uproar? How exciting!

When Yu Shengyun thought about this from Yuchi’s perspective, she felt that it would not be worth participating in the hunt.

If Yuchi won in the end, the myriad races would be embarrassed. However, if he were to die in the hunt, they would not bat an eyelid.

The reason why he was invited to participate in this hunt was because Yu Huaqing had a different way of revenge.

Instead of simply trying to kill Yuchi, Yu Huaqing’s idea was quite simple.

Yuchi had tried to trample on Fan Yuhe’s dignity by asking him to flip a coin to decide his fate.

Therefore, the angel race invited Yuchi to participate in this hunt so that he would realize how isolated and helpless he was in this world.

In a situation where he was pitted against the young talents of the other myriad races, would he be able to achieve anything?

From Yu Huaqing’s perspective, it was impossible.

Yu Huaqing wanted Yuchi to feel the same despair that Fan Yuhe felt before he died. This was a far more effective and satisfying way to deal with Yuchi.

Yu Huaqing was not a kind person. As the leader of the angel race, he had the power, responsibility, and obligation to do what was best for the entire angel race.

If the angel race did not deal with Yuchi, his existence would become a thorn in their side.

“Sigh, he will be destroyed by the leader’s plan. ”

How could Yu Shengyun not know about what was going on? In any case, was there any use in knowing?

There was a slight pause.

“So, what’s your decision, Senior? ” Yu Shengyun asked. “Will you agree to participate in the hunt?”
