For pure text online reading, please visit m.
Mr. Guan, who knows everything at the slightest glance, seemed to understand something in an instant, but at the same time he seemed to understand nothing at all.
"First of all, here in my place, in front of the Hall of Life and Death, no one is destined to die, because I am sure that there will be no dead people. No matter how serious the injury is, I can save it; so the so-called regret will not happen from the beginning.
Appear!"
"Secondly, it's simpler and more pure... Those four rules are from my handwriting. Although the last one seems to be very different from the previous three requirements, and even contradicts itself, a detailed analysis shows that there is another context to follow. What I require is
To determine the winner and the fittest, the first restriction is to hit the target. The reason why I added the next two is because I want to eliminate all those who dare to kill my brothers and colleagues in the Monarch Pavilion.
No matter how high the level of cultivation or strength of such a person is, it is meaningless to me."
Ye Xiao smiled faintly: "Because my purpose is to train these people as my direct descendants, and they are also my most fundamental team; the first thing to ensure is the purity of this team, this must not be
No flower leave exists.”
"The old man has experienced the world and naturally understands the importance of the unity and cohesion of the basic team, the team that started out."
Ye Xiao looked at Mr. Guan and said: "For an organization, the importance of the starting team has always been the top priority. The significance of this competition is of course the first battle to compete for the legendary position;
But the deeper meaning is to wash away the sand in the big waves."
"Don't worry, Mr. Guan." Ye Xiao looked at Mr. Guan sincerely: "I understand, I really understand."
…
After a long time, Mr. Guan was still sighing, thinking about Ye Xiao's words, "I understand, I really understand."
I understand, I really understand.
He doesn't mean that he understands the many subsequent changes that this incident will cause, because he has already explained it just now, and there is no need to go into details; the true meaning is actually... I understand your old intention!
Really understand!
Although Ye Xiao is young, he is able to see things so thoroughly, which is even more commendable; as he said, what he did was not just to throw out a few legendary ranking questions, but to say... big waves wash away the sand!
But the deeper purpose of doing this is... what Ye Xiao wants is not a Jianghu gang, but to lay the foundation for the future great cause, the most solid foundation!
"The waves are crashing into the sand..."
Mr. Guan kept mumbling to himself and staggered away.
Using a legendary position that can achieve a person's lifelong glory and fame, to do such a big wave...
Such a generous move, this move is really... so vicious.
I believe that few people can remain calm in the face of such temptation!
Therefore, the subordinates Ye Xiao finally selected must be die-hard subordinates who value love and justice, take the overall situation into consideration, and have an organization in mind!
And what kind of situation can such die-hard subordinates gather together and work with one heart and one mind to create?
As Ye Xiao said: Mr. Guan should know the importance of the starting team for an organization!
Top priority!
How could a man like Mr. Guan not know this meaning?
"Cultivation of true direct descendants..." Mr. Guan couldn't help but sigh as he murmured to himself.
"If we had invested the elites of each family in the Monarch Pavilion early in the morning, and cultivated mutual trust in a subtle way, how could the situation have evolved to this? And now, if the major families are still unwilling to invest in manpower openly...then I'm afraid it will really happen.
I'm going to miss this opportunity..." Mr. Guan's heart was full of tangles.
The situation of the Guan family is actually much better than that of other families. After all, a lot of manpower has been deployed. However, the high-end force has not yet been exposed, and it is still in a situation that cannot be exposed either publicly or privately.
Privately speaking, if the Guan family now exposes its high-end force and joins the Monarch Pavilion forcefully, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and even violent backlash from other families. This consequence is something the Guan family cannot afford.
Yu Gong, however, cannot be exposed even more. When the Guan family sent people into the Monarch's Pavilion, Yu Ming's identity was all logistics and civilian personnel. Some of the personnel may have a certain level of cultivation, but their combat capabilities are all scum.
However, these five scumbags actually have the strength that any one person can overturn the entire Monarch Pavilion. What do your Guan family want to do? The first thing that comes to mind must be - their actions are suspicious and their intentions are worthy of punishment!
Therefore, the Guan family's initial move to settle in has gradually evolved into a situation in which they are trapped in a cocoon and cannot get out of the situation.
After thinking about it, Mr. Guan only had one thought, but he was unable to do anything.
…
The next day.
That is to say, the day that will be called the ‘beginning of the legend’ by the entire world of mortals has officially arrived.
This day is the second day of September!
(Ahem, the second day of September is my birthday...)
In the golden autumn of September, the autumn wind is rustling, the sky is clear and clear, the sky is cloudless, and the sky is blue, which is a very good weather.
There is a vacant space in front of the Hall of Life and Death, with a radius of a hundred feet, but it is vast.
The big tree that has now become the landmark of the Hall of Life and Death seems to have a layer of light lingering on the rustling leaves, rising and falling like rolling waves.
From a distance, it seems as if all the stars in the sky are gathering on this tree, creating a spectacle that is breathtaking.
At this moment, Ye Xiao and all the subordinates of the Monarch Pavilion floated into the air together, hundreds of feet above the ground, standing out of thin air.
Ye Xiao's eyes were focused on the big tree in the Hall of Life and Death. Or should I say, the big tree was shining with brilliance like stars, attracting everyone's attention.
That is the color of life.
Although many people don't know why they are looking at a tree and are so focused on it, they just watch it instinctively and devote themselves to it.
"Everyone, I heard such a legend when I was very young. I don't know if any of you here have heard of it."
Ye Xiao's voice was low, deep, and powerful. His eyes were still staring at the light of the big tree in the Hall of Life and Death, and he said quietly: "Some people say... in this world, every successful person... is a star in the sky who has descended to earth.
, comes to the world with destiny; every person’s life has the brilliance of his or her own star.”
"If this person lives and lives a heroic life, the natal stars in the sky will shine brightly; if this person dies and no longer exists in the world, the natal stars will dim, or even fall from the sky like a shooting star."
Everyone nodded slightly.
This legend is widely circulated in the world of mortals, and almost everyone has heard of it.
This is not surprising at all.
But everyone didn't know what the monarch meant when he said these words at this moment.
"I believe everyone knows that there are many middle and low-level planes outside the world of mortals." Ye Xiao said lightly: "In their eyes, we are immortals, sacred and otherworldly existences; but we know that we are not
Immortals are not sacred; there are still stars above our heads."
"A good man has his ambitions in all directions, and a good daughter should also have her ambitions in the world. The stars in the sky are infinitely brilliant, are you willing to grab one? Become... a legend among others?"
"Become a myth that spreads all over the world?"
Ye Xiao's sudden words suddenly ignited the flames in everyone's hearts.
If there is an opportunity to become a legend in the future, I believe no one will give up and miss it!
"The Hall of Life and Death has made the Sovereign Pavilion possible." Ye smiled and said, "And the Hall of Life and Death is such an evergreen tree that lasts forever and never dies! For us now, the tree of the Hall of Life and Death is us.
the foundation of.”
"The light on every leaf of this tree in the Hall of Life and Death, in my opinion, is the brilliance of a star!"
The light of every leaf is the brilliance of a star!
This sentence caused everyone to focus their eyes and look at the tree deeply and intently, looking at the shining leaves that rise and fall like waves.
"This is our world! This is our stars!"
"The Monarch Pavilion starts today, and the legendary road is first compiled; when we achieve great things in the future and become famous all over the world, we are the stars in the sky, we are the brilliant starry sky! We are the sea of stars!"
Ye Xiao turned around, his clothes fluttering in the air, his eyes were like lightning, and he scanned the more than 1,700 men in front of him with sharp eyes.
Everyone's body is upright, their eyes are bright, and they are full of energy.
"There are a total of...twenty-two legendary positions that need to be competed for today!" Ye Xiao glanced at everyone's faces and said: "One sword, two heroes, seven stars, and twelve divine thrones!"
"Only the five kings' positions are reserved for the next time."
"The one-sword guardian, Qiu Luo; the two-hero guardian, the Lord of Black Evil, Bailong; the seven-star guardian, the seven great guards; the twelve-seat guardian, the originally designated twelve hall masters
!”
"Today is the first battle of legends. Survival of the fittest. The winner will naturally become the new champion."
"After today's battle, the winner's position will last for three years; three years later, when the legendary battle begins again, the capable will still be at the top and the mediocre at the bottom."
"If you want to get the position of legend, you have to rely on your own strength, fight for it, and grab it! Apart from that, there is no other way!"
"Those who are not capable of planning, plotting, and plotting strategies are not allowed to appear in the battle of the legendary ranking!"
There was silence.
Everyone's eyes were flashing at this moment, contemplating and thinking about what they should strive for and what they were most sure of.
"Of course, I still have to remind you that in addition to the Seven Stars of One Sword and Two Heroes, the position of the Twelve Gods requires more considerations. You still need to think about this carefully."
"I don't know when the term zodiac began to appear in this world; and the original intention of our current twelve halls is to correspond to these twelve zodiac signs."
“One thing everyone needs to understand is why rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog, and pig can become the twelve zodiac signs, but other creatures are not included in it?”
"Even the phoenix, the red bird, the swan, etc... these seemingly powerful and famous creatures are not qualified to be included?"
Ye Xiao's eyes flickered and he continued to scan everyone.
Everyone's faces were full of confusion.
Everyone present naturally knows the twelve zodiac signs, but they really don’t know how the animals in the twelve zodiac signs were originally selected. At this moment, Ye Xiao’s sudden question immediately aroused everyone’s suspicion of this old man.
Questions about the topic——
Yes, why?
Creatures such as phoenix, rosefinch, and swan are well-known to every household. There are even legendary ferocious beasts whose ferocious names spread far and wide, but none of them are included in the zodiac. However, ordinary domestic animals such as pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep can.
Being among them, it is really intriguing to see if there is any mystery behind it!
Don’t our ancestors know about those powerful creatures and famous species?
That's impossible.
The more famous the legendary life is, the better our ancestors understand it, at least better than contemporary people.
Now that you know it, or even understand it, why didn't you choose those famous beings to be selected in the first place?
It would be wrong to say that all the twelve zodiac signs are commonplace. The dragon is the highest-level species as famous as the phoenix and unicorn. There are also tigers and snakes, both of which are fierce species and are extremely famous beasts among animals.
,
In the eyes of everyone full of questions, Ye Xiao said with emotion: "Here, I can tell you my understanding. My understanding is very simple. The twelve animals corresponding to these twelve zodiac signs have their own characteristics.
Different temperaments, different habits, and different methods of doing things.”
"In my opinion, the tempers and characters of these twelve zodiac animals have basically covered all kinds of tempers and characters possessed by human beings; as for other creatures, no matter how tall or famous they are, they are barely listed among them.
, it will inevitably be repeated and even lead to deficiencies in other aspects.”
"Secondly, the personality characteristics, instinctive movement characteristics, etc. of these twelve zodiac signs also cover all the characteristics required for all job positions in the world!"
"So, this is the fundamental reason why the twelve zodiac signs choose those twelve actions in my understanding."
"It is precisely because of this understanding that the fundamental reason why our war hall is divided into these twelve halls."
"For the same reason, if everyone wants to compete for the position of the leader of each hall, they must figure out what the basic function of this hall is; in which direction it will develop in the future, and how to act specifically. This is the competition between the Twelve Halls.
The first test for the position of Lord. Only after passing this test can you be qualified to participate in the competition for the Twelve Gods."
"Secondly, as the hall leader, you must be brave, resourceful and responsible, and be able to stand alone!"
"No further talk, let's start now!"
After Ye Xiao announced the start, everyone was still in a quiet atmosphere, thinking deeply, and no one took the lead.
Mr. Guan and other senior members of the referee team were also thinking deeply about every word Ye Xiao just said.
While thinking about it, Mr. Ju murmured to himself: "One Sword, Two Heroes, Seven Stars, Twelve Gods... Above these positions, are there five higher kings... left for future competition?"
"Is there any deeper purpose for doing this...?"
"What are the temperament and personality characteristics of the twelve zodiac signs? This statement..."
"The five kings are in vain..."
On the other side, Mr. Yun was also muttering to himself, thinking deeply.
He frowned, stroking his beard, and said thoughtfully: "Everything else is easy to understand. Even if the point of view is unique, in the final analysis, that's what it is, but...the position of the Five Kings is in vain...the Five Kings...hiss!"
Suddenly, he didn't know what he thought of. Suddenly his face changed drastically. His usually calm hand trembled subconsciously. A strand of his long beard was pulled off by himself. This change happened so unexpectedly that the old man was in pain one after another.
Gasps.
"What's wrong with you old man? Do you have night-time syndrome?" Mr. Song on the side asked in a low voice.
We are all old friends and are very familiar with him. We were surprised to see him pulling off his beard. You can imagine the degree of shock in our hearts. He must have some unexpected thoughts, so he couldn't help but ask.
The other two elders also turned their attention at the right time. Why was the always cautious Old Man Yun so out of control today? Even though Ye Xiaozi's views were original, they were not so shocking!
"Why the Five Kings?" Mr. Yun still moaned from time to time. He was still holding the white beard he had just pulled off in his hand, but his expression was full of despair and distraught.
"Five kings? What's so strange about the five kings? They deserve your fuss!" Mr. Ju snorted, insulting Mr. Yun.
"What's so surprising? Just because you asked this question now, don't ever tell me how smart you are in the future!" Mr. Yun sneered and looked at Mr. Ju: "Have you ever thought about how the entire world of mortals today is?
How many kings are there in total in the sky?"
"Five... Who doesn't know this? This is worth asking... Uh!... You..." Mr. Ju replied smoothly, suddenly he seemed to realize something, and his expression changed drastically in an instant.
Restore the playful expression before!
Several other old men were shocked when they heard this, and their expressions suddenly changed.
"The glazed sky in the southeast, northwest and northwest!"
"In today's world, only these five can be called the real kings. Even Mr. Ye Da could only be called the kings in the past and had no real status as a king."
"However, Ye Xiao has set up the position of 'Five Kings' in his Monarch Pavilion!"
"At the beginning of the discussion, there were only the Seven Stars and Two Heroes of One Sword...there was no so-called 'Five Kings' ranking!"
"This title was obviously added later."
"Since it was an added position, it was naturally added after careful consideration."
"But why the 'Five' Kings? Is it really just a coincidence, or is it deliberate?"
"There is also the position of the 'Five Kings'; in the Sovereign Pavilion, it is second only to the monarch! What does this mean?"
Mr. Yun's voice began to tremble when he spoke: "What is contained in this, have you thought about it?"
Several old men were dumbfounded.
So...the first battle in the field has officially begun. The fierce battle is in full swing. The light of the sword flashes vertically and horizontally, and the wind of the sword roars like a snowstorm that has lasted for nine cold days...
These old guys didn't notice it and were still trapped in this incredible shock!
