After witnessing Link and Mo Ze frozen to death by the icy mist of the frost bead, and seeing Fred and Gordon fail to seize the bead together—with Gordon even losing an arm in the process—Chen Xuan still decided to give it a try.
As the saying goes, wealth is sought amidst danger. In this day and age on Earth, obtaining cultivation resources is incredibly difficult. With such a frost bead, brimming with dense spiritual energy, right before his eyes, Chen Xuan could never choose to walk away. Even though attempting to take the bead might cost him his life, he stepped onto the stone stairs with firm resolve.

Although everyone present had heard of the Evil Emperor's legendary achievements, they did not believe his strength was a cut above the official team captains. Mu Qianchou had previously judged Chen Xuan's strength to be on par with the strongest official captains, placing him in the same tier as Fred and Gordon. Since even Gordon had lost an arm, Mu Qianchou did not think Chen Xuan could possibly secure the bead.
