Chapter two hundred and seventy-one
When talking about the Xianlan Covenant, the Asian-Architectural Alliance will proudly tell foreigners where, undoubtedly, they regard it as the largest sect in the world, the place of the cultivation of the gods of Lu Shi.
Perhaps, after that, there was a long history and mythological lecture on the Wenlan Continent. In this history, there were countless remarkable places, and there were shadows of the Xianlan Covenant.
Westerners value benefits, while Easterners like face. They are locally organized the Xianlan Covenant. Amid repeated boasting, there is another passage of citation of scriptures and treatises. The Xianlan Covenant, which was unknown three years ago, has become the strongest organization in the world.
However, in the records of Penglai with the same roots, the origin of the Xianlan Covenant is not so grand.
The gods retired, and in the late Spring and Autumn Period, hundreds of schools of thought contend, Confucianism, Taoism, Yin-Yang School, Legalism, famous school, Mohist school, mixed school, farmer school, novelist, and strategist, each school represents a kind of thought and a philosophy.
In the era when gods and men lived in harmony, in addition to the ones on the surface, the Hundred Schools were also part of the inner world, a door to practice, and a ladder to the heavens where ordinary humans sublimate themselves and ascend to immortality and escape from mortality.
Each family is a inheritance passed down from ancient times. Each family's thoughts and practices have derived countless martial arts and Taoism, which are all this way to practice and achieve immortality.
For example, the inheritance left by the ancient Confucian great sage was the Confucian school of Spring and Autumn, while the ancestors of Taoism traced back to the legendary saints of the Three Pure Land.
They are all inherited from ancient times and have supernatural powers, so naturally they think that they should be the boss.
The hundred schools of thought contend, and they all believe that what they inherit is the orthodox Chinese in ancient times, so the struggle is endless.
In the temple, they argued about their knowledge and the way of governing the country. On the battlefield, they trained their troops and competed for power with their own methods. In the world, they drew their swords and competed with their swords and judged their superiority.
Finally, the fight seemed to have a result.
And in a supreme who supported Confucianism, in the name of respecting Confucianism, he abolished hundreds of schools of thought and declared hundreds of schools other than Confucianism as evil devils. He drove those who practiced into the uninhabited mountains.
Under the premise of the harsh overall environment, all parties that originally fought became wanted criminals and thorns in the eyes of the court. Therefore, they reached a peaceful alliance and made an appointment to overcome difficulties together.
Originally, the only survivors were the Buddhist and Taoist schools who were not interested in the affairs of the temple. After losing the hundreds of schools, the religious schools became increasingly popular.
Later, another dynasty respected Buddha and destroyed Taoism, and drove Taoism into the deep mountains and forests.
Ironically, in a later dynasty, the new rulers promoted the Tao and destroyed the Buddha, and the more they drove the Dongtu Buddhist temple into the deep mountains and forests.
I felt that making a living was not easy and things were impermanent. These expelled families gradually formed a covenant and watched over each other. This is the prototype of the Xianlan Covenant.
This is also the reason why there are few Confucian scholars among the hundreds of schools of thought.
And because they were originally objects of expulsion, it was natural that they escaped from the world, which became the first law of the covenant.
Perhaps, I have seen through it. No matter which company becomes the ruling party, runs high or falls hard, it will only be even worse after the next round of changes in the situation.
Things in the world are like chess. How can there be an eternal winner? A short-term win or loss cannot prove our great way? Since this is the case, it is better to practice yourself and become the way of the ancient saints."
However, changes in the world belong to the heavenly way, and human hearts are no different, and there are even more ruthless disasters in the impermanent changes.
In modern times, foreign countries used strong ships and powerful cannons to open the closed doors of a certain country, and after seeing the greatness of the world and the power of Western supernatural people.
Many knowledgeable people in the covenant have already seen that since outsiders come to the door and hide from the world, they will become frogs in the well who are ignorant of the sky and earth.
So, three hundred years ago, Li Yunhao, who was born in Zhulu Academy (Military School), brought a group of young people from various sects to find an isolated island, named Penglai, the ancient fairyland, and founded Penglai Academy, which had no distinction.
‘Imitate the essence of Western learning, spread the lifeblood of China, conquer the talents and knowledge of the world, and bring together the heroes of the East.”
With such a teaching philosophy, coupled with the support of the huge fairyland covenant behind it, the top five Li World Super Academy in the world was born.
Therefore, although Penglai Academy is relatively high, it has too many unspeakable relationships with the Xianlan Alliance.
Fortunately, the Xianlan Covenant itself is an alliance-type organization summarized by countless organizations. In addition to the rules, its binding nature is not strong, which makes Penglai Academy and the Xianlan Covenant itself have an almost equal relationship.
Perhaps, this is also to set up a barrier for yourself so that you can practice escaping the world.
The information sent by Penglai Academy has been intensifying, which has scared those old-fashioned people.
It is directly transformed into the second dimension gate of the first demonic area, making it the so-called land of gods in the Holy Church. It is vicious to dig out a piece of meat from the entire Eastern power.
When the Winged Angel descended, the threat from the Thirty-Three Demon Zone was nothing, but Penglai must have nothing to do with Xianlan, and Donghai will belong to the Holy Church from then on.
"How can that be? Don't you think about our strength? Well, I'll show it to you, just to see if you can bear it."
This time, in a blazing state, many sects of the alliance finally broke the rules and sent their own proud disciples.
The vast team of 300 people arrived at Penglai Island within two days. With the addition of this new force, Penglai Academy finally felt relieved.
As more and more forces join, the situation on Penglai Island becomes more and more chaotic. With the enemy in front of him, Penglai Academy has completely let it go. At the time of undercurrents, the day of the Singer Thorns Games has arrived.
According to convention, the Singer Thorns Tournament is divided into two categories, individual tournament and team points tournament.
Individual competitions are the ring competitions that can be seen everywhere, except for selecting rookies, there is no excuse.
The team competition is the reason why the Singer Thorns Tournament is named "thorns".
The organizer of the competition sets a challenge topic, while other organizations challenge this test question, and calculate the total score based on the final gains and points.
For example, in the past, there was a year of the theme of the thorn race was "peace and rescue".
At that time, four countries in the mainland were in a melee. At the same time, the grassland fire caused by the war became more and more intense, and the test questions assigned by the organizer were to save more lives in the midst of the war.
Those who earned the highest points did not cross four countries, gathered local people to form professional theory and rescue the most civilians, even if they were hosts from the American continent.
The winner was a small Druid sect organization in the Europa continent.
They summoned heavy rains, put out forest fires and grassland fires, saved the local biological chain. At the same time, they quickly obtained a large amount of food with natural spells, fed refugees who were almost at the same time, and saved the local future.
Of course, there are not so good things.
A participating killer organization assassinated the president and military commanders of the participating country, sought to seize power and ordered a truce.
This is indeed the most direct solution, but it annoyed the judges.
Although in theory, he did save countless lives, unfortunately, the world was still under the world at that time, violating the basic principle of not interfering in mortal politics. The killer and his organization were directly disqualified.
Back then, Black Forest Weekly used a special edition to discuss whether the organization's approach was correct or not, but in the end, it was an incomplete result.
The Thorns Competition tests not only personal combat power, but also young people's ability to solve problems. Of course, if the strength is enough to crush, there is no problem that cannot be solved.
As a result, the questions are getting wider and wider, and the answers of the question answerers are getting more and more outstanding.
However, the question given by Yao Xian was full of malicious "hunting."
What are you hunting? The monsters in the Thirty-Three Demon Zone.
Methods and time limits? The winner is the one who hunts the most harmful enemies to humans within seven days.
The Thirty-Three Demon Zone is underwater and requires underwater equipment? This is limited in quantity, so it is not fair to give it to anyone.
However, the front line is just right to change defense, so you can use the underwater respirators and underwater motorcycles used by soldiers at the front line of defense.
Don't worry, we don't want the rent, but since you have taken away other people's equipment, you must complete other people's regular encirclement missions.
"Give it, this is the chart of xx reef. It seems that I have just arrived at the Haiyuma family, so I can clean it up at will. Don't worry, it's also considered among the points."
The coordinates of various dangerous marine monsters can be bought at the Penglai Academy store.
It is obvious that the cunning Yao first treated the contestant as a gun.
Then, the banner of participating in the competition used them as free thugs to fill the gap left by the teachers and students of Penglai College to switch defense, which was the wishful thinking that Yao Xian had made in his heart when he agreed to hold the Thorns Competition.
At the same time, he also issued an order that the freshman S7 mercenary group must also participate in the competition, improve the water station capabilities through actual combat and hunting, and prepare for taking over the defense line in the future.
As soon as the theme came out, it caused an uproar.
After all, these elites from various organizations came to participate, and no one expected that this mission would allow them to go to the front line of the magic zone.
People are going to die on the battlefield, and obviously, many people have no intention of risking their lives.
"What are you complaining about? In the past, competitions were peaceful times, but now, there may be a magic zone anywhere. Warriors must be mentally prepared to go to the battlefield at any time. Starting from actual combat, I arranged this test question. Only those who have passed the battlefield trial are real warriors. Those who don't want to take the exam will go back directly to me."
Such a speech really convinced many young people who were surging their energy.
Although many organizations and individuals directly chose to leave, more than 90% of the contestants stayed.
