Since the beginning of the world, people have been constantly emphasizing the importance of hard work. I believe that everyone has listened to the earnest advice of many elders since they were young, saying that hard work is the most important, and that without hard work, nothing is useful.
, and there are quite a few examples that can prove this truth.
But what we have to admit is that there does exist that kind of genius in the world, the kind of genius that ordinary people cannot surpass no matter how hard they try.
This is not to deny the importance of hard work, nor is it to refute Edison. I have said before that there is no better talent than hard work. I just want to illustrate that there are always differences between people, especially those born with
In terms of talents, geniuses do exist, even if some people will never meet one in their lifetime.
Of course, it's possible that he just didn't realize it when he met him. The word genius is not written openly on his face.
Now that we understand that genius exists, what will happen when an ordinary person encounters a genius? This situation can best be summed up in one sentence: envy, jealousy, and hatred.
First of all, envy is natural. Compared with getting something after hard work, getting something for nothing is undoubtedly more attractive. Just like those prostitutes who criticize the rich second generation in the Internet every day, most of them are afraid of criticizing others rather than criticizing others.
I want to be the target of criticism.
Next comes jealousy. Although there shouldn't be more people with this emotion than envy, there are definitely quite a few.
In fact, it is no wonder that you feel jealous. After all, you are a genius. You are born with talents without adding any preservatives. This unfairness that has existed since birth makes everyone feel unbalanced. However, you must know that
On the contrary, fairness is even more incredible.
As early as when humans were still sperm and eggs, there were differences between strong and weak. It's not fair to talk about it. Let's just go to sleep.
Finally, there is hatred. To refine it a little, it is hatred. People who hold this rather extreme emotion must be the least. They hate the inequality that they are born with, hate the talents that others have but they do not have, and even go so far as to directly
Angry at the genius they happened to meet.
This may be an understandable behavior, but it is definitely not acceptable. Unfortunately, what I will talk about next is exactly the case.
There is no doubt that Ye Shang is a genius, at least in terms of taking exams in school. This is evident from his ability to control his ranking in the school year extremely accurately. If it goes back to junior high school, his talent in this area will still be reflected.
It's even more obvious. Getting to the top of your age group is as simple as eating, drinking, and entertaining your sister.
In fact, as long as Ye Shang is willing, it is not difficult to remain the first in his grade. This is obviously a powerful talent that other students cannot surpass through hard work.
It is estimated that many people have had such an experience, that is, after an exam, they will always say things like "I didn't review at all" and "I failed the exam" to the people around me. This behavior cannot be said to be a deliberate show off.
At most, it's just a little show-off, and it won't be struck by lightning.
For Ye Shang, who was only a junior high school student at the time, it was not surprising that he would behave like this from time to time, not to mention that he had indeed not reviewed.
Don't forget, Ye Shang's parents were no longer around seven years ago. As a junior high school student at that time, he had to take on all the housework and take care of his younger sister Ye Qian, who was just a primary school student. He was often absent.
Not even doing homework, absenteeism is even more common.
But Ye Shang, a standard bad student, has always been in the top of his grade. This is enough to make many students envious and jealous. And the one who feels hatred may be just one of them, and it happens to be him.
's good friend.
No, at this time it should be said that he was Ye Shang's former good friend.
Ye Shang met this friend when he first entered junior high school. Perhaps the friendship between men is so simple. It is just the relationship between the classmate and the front desk. In addition, our families are relatively close together. We often go to and from school together, so there is no accident.
We have become good friends who talk about almost everything.
Even counting, I met Ye Shang only after this person in the early hours of the morning, although it was only a week or two apart.
Unfortunately, unlike Ye Shang, who has a very similar personality to Ye Shang, this person is the type who doesn't like to joke very much. Sometimes he even takes himself too seriously, especially when it comes to studying. He has a drive that is not inferior to anyone else, and
Don't want to lose to anyone.
This kind of character cannot be said to be bad, it can only be said that he is somewhat competitive. However, it is precisely because of this that he later clashed with Ye Shang.
"It's not fair! It's not fair! Why can't I win against you no matter what I do! I am obviously studying every day and working hard every day, but I am always behind you who don't spend any time! Ye Shang, I hate your talent,
I hate your ability to easily get ahead of others without doing anything!"
In all likelihood, it was an explosion of emotions accumulated over a long period of time, or a release of stress. Just after the results of the final exam in the first semester of the third grade of junior high school were released, this former good friend told him at the end of the exam that he definitely failed.
Ye Shang, who was good but still ranked at the top of his grade, let out an angry roar and tore the exam paper in his hand to pieces on the spot.
At that time, it was not only Ye Shang, but also the whole class in the early hours of the morning. They were so shocked by this person's sudden behavior that they were speechless and were stunned for a long time.
But it is already a predetermined outcome. If it were anyone else, unless he could be as indifferent as in the early hours of the morning, he would feel uncomfortable when someone is always walking in front of you but only needs to put in a little or even zero effort.
Dissatisfaction, from some perspectives, is exactly what is called losing at the starting line.
It's just that Ye Shang, a former good friend, is more extreme, his emotions are more extreme, and his expressions are also more extreme.
After this incident happened, Ye Shang naturally distanced himself from him. It wasn't that he didn't want to be with him, it was mainly because he didn't know what expression to use to face him. And while he was hesitating, the second semester of his third year of junior high school also started.
We passed quietly and went our separate ways after the high school entrance examination.
Then there was nothing more. This former good friend chose a different high school from Ye Shang and moved. There was no possibility or reason to contact him.
But the impact this former good friend had on Ye Shang was profound. Whether it was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, or not showing off his edge, in short, after entering high school, he no longer appeared at the beginning of the school year.
Instead, he deliberately controlled his grades. The only one who knew that his academic ability was more than this was early morning, and he has continued to do so until now.
This may not be called growth, but it is definitely a change. In addition, it also indirectly changes Ye Shang's personality from cheerful to taciturn. In Chen Chen's words, he changes from coquettish to sullen.
As the cause of a major change in his life, this former good friend naturally left a deep impression in Ye Shang's mind. Even though they were separated by several years, he would probably be able to recognize him if he met him. However, he never expected that
Yes, now this familiar and mature face suddenly appeared in the lord's hall in the main city of Amon Eto Territory, with a white ID of "Infinite" on his head.
What's even more dramatic is that the warrior player standing next to the player named Wu Jian is clearly one of Ye Shang's current good friends and the person he is going to find next, Gao Junhao.
Of course Wu Jian and Gao Junhao didn't know that they had common friends, no, they should be said to be the same acquaintances. They only knew that the other party was a player in the same guild, and they also knew that their opinions differed. They also knew that each other wanted to convince the station.
The warrior player in front of you should listen to them.
I believe some people have guessed it, yes, the warrior player standing in front of Wu Jian and Gao Junhao is the lord of Amon Aito's territory, Zhan Zhishang.
This is a Chinese-shaped face that is about thirty years old. It cannot be called handsome, but it is extremely stable. Compared with Ao Cang, the leader of the team that Ye Shang joined in the Ascart Territory before, it is not far behind. But on the contrary,
, Zhan Zhishang does not have that kind of serious majesty, but has a feeling of intimacy everywhere.
To put it bluntly, it's like the combination of the leader Aocang and the deputy leader Shangshan Ruoshui. This is in line with the rumors of Zhan Zhishang in "God's Domain". Being approachable is indeed easier to win people's hearts.
"President, as long as the war is over, the supply points will be returned anyway. It would be more appropriate to focus on defense than an attack that may not be very effective." He glanced at Gao Junhao next to him intentionally or unintentionally.
He said it in a calm tone without much emotion.
"What do you mean it's not necessarily effective? Others have hit us in the face, why don't we fight back?"
Compared with Wu Jian, Gao Junhao seemed more excited, which was expected. As a militant, he was definitely not willing to hide in the city to defend, and his personality was more direct. He heard others persuade Zhan Zhishang not to attack.
, it would be unbelievable if he could stay calm.
Unfortunately, Wu Jian didn't pay much attention to Gao Junhao's intention, and just looked at Zhan Zhishang steadily.
"I understand what you mean, Wujian." Facing Wujiang's gaze, Zhan Zhishang showed a warm smile on his face, and slowly said, "The Morse Territory is coming very aggressively this time, and they took over us without warning.
All supply points on the border, so it is possible for them to attack the city."
"But..." The topic changed, Zhan Zhishang's voice rose a few degrees, and he continued, "The Morse Territory is fighting on two fronts. They have just occupied the city of Kotia in the Askart Territory, and they will definitely send people to defend it.
What's more, even if the army comes to the city, we can definitely defend it by relying on the city wall."
After a slight pause, while Wu Jian lowered his eyelids and Gao Junhao became happy, Zhan Zhi Shang finally concluded: "So since we have started to fight back, let's do this first."
