The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"What, what do you mean by a meteorite falling from the sky?"

Liu Bang's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.

Ying Zheng did the same thing.

The tempting rewards and the ease of the challenge made them all want to participate.

Even though the punishment for failure is just as severe, the problem is that they see no possibility of failure in such a challenge!

With 420,000 to 20,000, the advantage is definitely on my side!

"Don't you guys think about this? If it were really that simple, would the immortals offer such a generous reward?"

Seeing that he had persuaded these people to stop, Old Zhu breathed a sigh of relief.

Many of these emperors did a good job, and some were even considered wise rulers throughout history.

If someone were to die in this almost impossible challenge without knowing why, the loss to the world would be immense!

"It's not that simple?"

"So, can you tell me exactly how Liu Xiu won?"

Ying Zheng seemed to understand, but not quite.

But since Old Zhu said so, he was willing to believe him.

After all, although Lao Zhu seemed to enjoy arguing and was a complete contrarian, everything he said was true.

Moreover, Li Er also tried to stop it.

He doesn't mind taking a slight risk, but in this situation, it's better to give up decisively.

Of course, Liu Bang also gave up along with him.

Putting everything else aside, Liu Bang's greatest strength was that he listened to advice!

"Is it really that dangerous...?"

Liu Che looked at his hand, which was already pressed on the light screen, and was immediately on the verge of tears.

You should have said so earlier!

If I had told you earlier, my hands wouldn't have been so mischievous!

"Emperor Wu of Han, you haven't already joined in, have you?"

"All we can say is that this challenge was a near-death experience, and Wang Yi's defeat was not solely due to his poor command of the battle formation."

"The Mandate of Heaven does not lie with Wang Mang, but with the Han Dynasty!"

Old Zhu looked regretful.

If nothing unexpected happens, Emperor Wu of Han is considered one of the candidates for the title of the greatest emperor in history in his mind.

Unfortunately, this unexpected incident occurred.

Faced with Liu Xiu, who was practically the chosen one, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't think Liu Che was much better than Wang Yi.

Even if he brings along the champion marquis who is the bravest of the three armies!

"Emperor Wu, I can only offer you one piece of advice."

"Beware of meteorites."

Liu Che: "?"

Be careful of what? What meteorite?

Do you want to listen to what you're saying?

Are you talking about that giant rock that fell from the sky and caused a catastrophe wherever it landed?

"There are many records of the Battle of Kunyang in various historical books, but in summary, the consensus is that on that day, Liu Xiu led a suicide squad to attack Wang Mang's army camp."

"As Wang Yi led his men to intercept them, a sudden gale arose, followed by a torrential downpour, and finally a meteor streaked across the sky, shattering the morale of Wang Mang's army."

"With 20,000 against 420,000, even if those 20,000 are exhausted to death, it's impossible to kill too many."

"Most of Wang Mang's 420,000 troops died in the stampede during the chaos!"

Seeing that the names on the sky had begun to flash, Li Er quickly told everything he knew.

But the more he spoke, the more desperate Liu Che felt.

This guy, this opponent doesn't sound like an ordinary person at all!

Could it be that Heaven saw that the fate of the Han Dynasty was not yet over and sent Liu Xiu to save it?

"If I were to take Wei Qing with me, would we have a chance of victory?"

Liu Che looked at Huo Qubing with a somewhat bewildered expression.

He desperately hoped that Huo Qubing could give him a positive answer.

Unfortunately, to his expectant gaze, Huo Qubing could only shake his head helplessly.

If it is truly as Li Er and Zhu De said, that the Mandate of Heaven truly rests on the Han Dynasty, then how could the mighty power of Heaven be changed by one or two generals?

“Your Majesty, if what those two people say is true, then I'm afraid no one would be able to be sure of it at all. But if Your Majesty does not mind, I am willing to accompany Your Majesty.”

He couldn't change the course of the battle, but as long as he could have a small force that would completely obey his command, Huo Qubing was still somewhat confident that he could lead Liu Che out of the encirclement.

This punishment will not take effect as long as you do not die during the challenge!

"Well, that's the only way."

Liu Che lowered his head helplessly.

If he had known about this situation earlier, he would never have reached out his hand, even if it meant chopping it off!

"Furthermore, I hereby convey my decree that the Crown Prince should prepare himself. If I do not return, all officials shall welcome the Crown Prince to the throne."

Immediately afterwards, Liu Che summoned several trusted and capable ministers.

As he was making arrangements for his funeral, Old Zhu keenly sensed that something was wrong.

As the sky flickered, it seemed that Liu Che was not the only name on it!

"Is there anyone who is not afraid of death?"

Old Zhu was stunned.

He believed that after he and Li Er explained the dangers, anyone with a sound mind would not choose to participate in this challenge.

I reckon it was someone else who was too quick.

"Hu Hai?"

Ying Zheng blinked, seemingly incredulous at the appearance of this name.

Wasn't Hu Hai already imprisoned?

"I understand now, it's the Hu Hai from the original historical timeline!"

Li Er was the quickest to realize the truth.

Even though Ying Zheng had imprisoned Hu Hai after being advised by the immortal, Hu Hai in the original timeline would not have been affected!

To truly influence Hu Hai, only methods like those of an immortal could be used!

"Father, save me! I know I was wrong. I don't want to die! Please find a way to save me!"

On the screen above, a barrage of horrified images of Hu Hai had already appeared.

However, when he saw that the other person who had impulsively joined in was him, not to mention others, even Ying Zheng couldn't help but laugh.

You bastard, I thought we couldn't do anything to you.

You've walked right into a trap!

As the two names on the sky began to flash, countless people hoped that Hu Hai would be chosen.

Firstly, it preserved Liu Che, a wise ruler; secondly, it eliminated Hu Hai, a potential threat.

Never before in history have emperors been so united as they are now.

Of course, excluding the Xiongnu people during the Han Dynasty...

The process of drawing participants for the challenge was not long, but as the frequency of the names flashing gradually slowed down, Liu Che's heart was in his throat.

It wasn't until the candidate was completely chosen that he realized his undergarments were already soaked with cold sweat.

Fortunately, the results are good.

Only one name remained on the sky.

Qin Er Shi, Hu Hai!

Upon seeing this result, Hu Hai, who was enjoying himself in the palace, felt completely weak.

He pointed at Zhao Gao with intense anger in his eyes.

"Zhao Gao, you're the one who made me participate in the challenge! You said this challenge was a reward from the immortals, and anyone who participated would succeed!"

"If it weren't for you, how could I have fallen into such a perilous situation!"

"Tell me, what should I do now?"

When the challenges and rewards were first introduced, Zhao Gao genuinely thought that the immortals had lost their minds and started giving out perks.

With 420,000 against 20,000, even someone who was incompetent in warfare was confident he could annihilate the enemy.

Who would have thought our opponent would use cheats?!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Your Majesty is blessed with boundless fortune! With Your Majesty's luck, you will surely be able to prevent all of that from happening!"
