Chapter 37
There is a saying that between one school and three courtyards: intellectuals are all mean.
Even if you say something reserved, principles, spiritual core, and you don’t want to kill anything. But when the helplessness of reality comes like a rolling tide, intellectuals can always find enough reasons to shout loudly.
Today, Qinglian Academy is facing an extremely similar situation.
When Zhao Chenlu was invading strongly, the Qinglian elders led by Shang Miaoyu immediately shared the same hatred of the enemy and used the scholar's character to resist the corrosion of money. When she announced that her research direction was cross-species reproduction, the elders were even more eager to show their ambitions on the spot, so as to all people to oppose this evil path, but they gave up because they could not find the volunteers for ambition.
However, when Zhao Chenlu completely ignored these opposition voices and moved into Qinglian Academy with the support of Dean Wang Jiu. After he started to preside over the work as a special consultant, no Qinglian scholar jumped out on the spot to express his duel with her. When Zhao Chenlu decomposed the cross-species reproductive research she needed into multiple sub-tasks and assigned them to 5 project teams, the Qinglian scholars immediately started to study it with a lot of complaints, and even started working overtime that day to the night.
Looking at the daily report on the table, Wang Jiu was still quite satisfied with the efficiency reflected in it.
Among the five project research groups, 4 groups had a working saturation of more than 85%, which means more than 20 hours of 24 hours a day were in the working state.
Only the sword group lacks the team leader and the team leader agent, and the current work efficiency is only 56%, and some people are distracted, and the team is at risk of a strike. However, Wang Jiu will focus on rectifying the sword group. What's more, even in the period of inefficiency, with the efficiency value of 56%, the sword group still completed the tasks assigned by Zhao Chenlu within the specified time.
Overall, Qinglian Academy is indeed worthy of the name of one school and three hospitals, and has a research level far ahead of other similar institutions. However, if we look at it based on the strict standards of the Jiuzhou era, Qinglian Academy has too many shortcomings at this stage.
This is also one of the difficulties that Wang Jiu prepared to focus on after taking over the position of dean.
In Wang Jiu's view, the vacancy of the president of Qinglian Academy is a god-given opportunity for him.
Because there are only two ways to transform Xiangzhou and accelerate the recovery of human civilization.
The first is to promote the overall reform of Xiangzhou, and use countless reform measures of all sizes to improve and improve all existing systems in Xiangzhou one by one, so as to drive hundreds of millions of creatures to move forward together and complete the sublimation of the entire Xiangzhou.
However, the difficulty of this road, even in the eyes of the Divine Sword of Heaven, is beyond the scope of ability.
Judging from the historical experience of the Jiuzhou era, all those who can complete this kind of change that benefit the world are great sages who are well versed in politics and have wisdom and courage beyond ordinary people. Wang Jiu does not have any special talents in political issues. Similarly, considering Zhao Chenlu's experience in the Jiuzhou era and the Xiangzhou era, it is obvious that she is unable to take on this great task.
In the entire two thousand years of history of Xiangzhou, only the two founders of the Holy Sect were actually the two founders. In a historical sense, the feats of those two were comparable to the God Sword outside the sky leading the Nine Immortals to win the battle between immortals and demons. Without them, human civilization would not know how long it would last in the dark age. Even considering the harsh environment of the dark age, the possibility of human civilization disappearing there.
Wang Jiu was deeply impressed by bringing human civilization directly from the dark age to the civilization era and creating a political pattern that has been firmly inherited to this day... If those two people could be resurrected, they might be expected to lead Xiangzhou to go further.
But the dead cannot be resurrected. The word "hate" seen in the ruins of Jinyunding fully demonstrates that the era of the two men has completely ended. Therefore, Wang Jiu can only take the second path.
Use technological innovation to promote the overall progress of Xiangzhou civilization.
Looking back at the history of Jiuzhou, most of the major historical changes are closely related to the update of technology.
The establishment of the Wanxian Alliance originated from the fact that several major immortal cultivators were the first to find a way to break through to the Tianbeng Realm. While other immortal cultivators were still wandering in the Earth-Split Realm or even the Overturned Sea Realm, the peerless powerful people from the Tianbeng Realm suddenly appeared in the Tianbeng Realm. The realm advantages of these top strong people could hardly be offset in any way. The vast world of Jiuzhou Continent, in the eyes of the Tianbeng Realm, were just between the palms of the Xianbeng Realm. As a result, the influence of the big family instantly radiated to every corner of the Jiuzhou Continent, and the original situation of the separatist heroes quickly melted under the oppression of the Tianbeng Realm powerhouses and turned into the Wanxian Alliance formed by the leading large families and sects.
The unity of human civilization has greatly promoted overall progress. When the Wanxian Alliance was first established, the Tianbeng Realm was still a secret exclusive to a very few giants. But a hundred years later, the immortal cultivators of the Tianbeng Realm began to spread to the mainland, and various revolutionary martial arts innovations emerged one after another. Although the giants still maintained their relative advantages, the overall progress of human civilization is obvious.
Similarly, if the same technological revolution can be promoted in the Xiangzhou continent, it will naturally bring about the same social impact. For example, designing a set of general practices that can guide everyone to successfully break through to the Earth Schizophrenia Realm or creating a Xiangzhou Earth Vein Array that can affect the operation of the entire spiritual wind and increase the wind speed can also improve the overall level of human cultivation.
However, these technologies cannot be obtained out of thin air. Even at Wang Jiu's level, he cannot complete these technologies alone. Most of his understanding of immortality is rooted in the world and environment of the Jiuzhou era. Now the laws of the great Tao have changed, and theoretical aspects need to be designed from scratch.
This improvement of basic theory is an extremely huge project. Wang Jiu only has unique qualifications in the field of kendo, and can only rely on basic intelligence to study in other aspects. No matter how outstanding his intelligence is, he is not omniscient and omnipotent.
Regarding the overall progress of Xiangzhou, the people of Xiangzhou themselves need the participation of the people of Xiangzhou. As the top research institute in Xiangzhou, Qinglian Academy has high hopes for Wang Jiu. If the transformation of Qinglian Academy can be successfully completed and the work efficiency of the academy is improved to the theoretical value, Wang Jiu is confident that within a hundred years, the immortal civilization in Xiangzhou will be guided to fully enter the era of Earth-Cracking Realm and touch the threshold of the Heavenly Collapse Realm.
According to the normal historical process, this will take at least 500 years of long evolution.
However, it is obviously difficult for Qinglian Academy to take on this task now, and it is not even in a normal working state. After the former dean unfortunately died, the Qinglian Sword Group, which has the most researchers, has always been in a semi-stop state, which greatly drags down the overall efficiency of the academy.
"So, the first thing to solve is the problem of the sword group."
Among the five research groups of Qinglian Academy, the sword group has the most historical problems.
Qinglian Academy, which was established in a special historical period, has had the contradiction between books and swords from the beginning. Its founder, Zhenren Qinglian, is a master of swordsman who emphasizes both theory and practice. He has only a handful of military power in the world, and has almost established an enlightenment theory to break the dark age with his own strength.
Even in the glorious era when heroes emerged, Qinglian Zhenren was the most eye-catching star. Many people have commented on him as a great immortal cultivator second only to the founders of the two Holy Sects.
However, although Qinglian Zhenren can practice both civil and military affairs, it does not mean that future generations can achieve the same feat. For most people, practical combat and theory are difficult to choose one of two. In the long historical process of two thousand years, an organization will inevitably gradually turn to one of them.
The academy tends to be the theoretical side, so the sword group representing practice is always in an awkward position. In terms of practical combat capabilities, Qinglian Academy has always faced the opponent of Wuxiang Jian Academy, and for two thousand years
Qinglian Academy has had less than one-tenth of the upper hand. In terms of research ability, although the sword group has always been ranked first in the academy research group, it actually occupies several times the resources of other research groups, but it only barely ranked first, and the cost-effectiveness is completely unprofitable.
So hundreds of years ago, some people proposed the complete transformation of the academy, but they were always stopped by insiders. By the generations of Sang Yue and Sang Jing, they forced the status of the sword group with a arrogant attitude, but the result was counterproductive. Before they unfortunately died, the Qinglian Sword Group had already clearly and clearly showed a decline, enjoying more than 40% of the budget quota of the entire academy, but only made less than 15% of the contribution, and the contribution was even lower than the average!
This is inefficiency that cannot be said to be anyway, but it is the result of the two deans doing their best. It is also because of this that the Sang Yue sisters are willing to take the risk to find a way to break through the ruins.
"So I've said a long time ago that Qinglian Academy should completely give up the research on kendo. Jiandao is really incompatible with our Qinglian Academy! It's obvious that he spent so much effort, but he couldn't calculate anything!"
In the research room of the sword group, an old man with a gray beard couldn't help complaining while scratching his sparse hair.
Aside him, a young monk said, "But didn't the previous work barely come to fruition?"
"You also know that it was just a bare-lasting result! It was because I was lucky enough to try out the correct algorithm before the deadline. It was incomparable to the smooth work efficiency of the other groups... Alas, I knew that even if Director Sang was wearing small shoes, he would have forced his withdrawal from the sword group. The research on swordsmanship was really boring!"
While complaining, the old man simply tore up the manuscript paper that had been piled up for a long time but was still blank.
However, these manuscript pieces suddenly solidified in mid-air.
The next moment, all the fragments that were scattered but not made up their heads, turned into white paper.
This phenomenon that almost reverses time has attracted everyone's attention.
Then, Wang Jiu's voice rang in everyone's ears.
"The study of kendo is meaningless because you don't realize what kendo is."
