Two people from Qi State, Peng Nannan and Sheng Fang.
Both of them practiced the art of swordsmanship. In Qi State, swordsmanship was the strongest method in the country.
Among the various countries, it is also recognized that Qi State has the strongest swordsmanship.
On the Yan side, Gong Ze and Pei Sulan.
What should be practiced is the method of literati.
Dean Tianyi naturally wanted Shen Han to know himself and the enemy so that he could deal with it with ease.
However, people of Shen Han's age rarely left the country before, making it even harder for them to show their strength.
The information that can be obtained from these younger generations is really limited.
Dean Tianyi and Mr. Zhong Nan can only rely on past experience.
Explain to Shen Han the techniques that Qi and Yan are good at.
The strength of the three countries is almost evenly matched, and each has its own merits.
If you want to sort it out.
According to everyone's consistent opinion, Wei is basically the strongest, followed by Qi, and Yan is the weakest among the three kingdoms.
But after a rebellion, Wei's national power declined a lot.
And in the past hundred years, the strength of Wei's younger generation has declined significantly.
The reasons are complicated, but the problem has been put in front of everyone.
In the Ten-Nation Competition four years ago, the Wei Dynasty did not get any benefits.
If it weren't for Shen Ye's sudden success, I'm afraid the Wei Dynasty would have lost even more miserably that year.
This year, Shen Ye did not go to the Ten Nations Competition due to injury.
Shen Han also knew that although he had a bad relationship with Shen Ye, he had a bad relationship with the Shen family.
But his performance will definitely be compared with Shen Ye.
If you perform poorly, perhaps all the reputation you have accumulated in the past will disappear.
The Ten Kingdoms Competition is, after all, a foreign war.
The people of the Wei Dynasty share the same hatred and hatred, and no matter what they do, they are always united and outward-looking.
In the competition, he defeated Su Jinyu and Chen Ye's clone.
The performance of the nineteen-year-old is amazing and brilliant.
But if you play against other countries, your performance will be poor.
By then, I'm afraid I will be drowned in saliva.
Of course, there are risks ahead.
If you perform extremely well, fame, fortune, and fame will all come to you.
Shen Han was not too demanding about these things.
But if he returns victorious, according to what Prince Qingyuan said, he can then try to fight for the title of Shen family.
Shen Han still has the slightest interest in this title.
The Shen family had brought him so much trouble, and Shen Ye even wanted to kill himself.
In this case, Shen Ye has always wanted the title and the inheritance of the Shen family.
I just want to have a good fight with him.
Two days passed.
On the east side of the capital, there is the Temple of Heaven.
This is a place for sacrifices and prayers to heaven.
Major matters of the country must be addressed to heaven.
Pray to Heaven for its wishes, carry out Heaven's will, and prosper the affairs of the Wei Dynasty.
Every major event involves the step of offering sacrifices and praying to heaven.
In the Wei Dynasty, many people actually valued this providence.
Over the past few hundred years, praying to heaven has really led to several major events.
The views related to the destiny of a country and the destiny of people were also widely spread in the Wei Dynasty.
So many people really value the results of praying to heaven this time.
Shen Han followed Dean Tianyi and followed the crowd to the sacrificial altar.
There was still a long way to go before the sacrificial altar, but the Imperial Guard had already taken over.
The crowd began to be divided.
Ordinary people in Beijing were led to a slightly distant position to watch.
People of certain status are naturally given preferential treatment and can stand closer to each other.
The entire sacrificial altar is surrounded by a raised terrain in the middle.
When offering sacrifices to pray to heaven, due to the terrain, other people will stand lower than the person in the center of the offering.
This shows the dignity of the sacrificial ceremony.
The auspicious times for sacrifices are the four hours from Si Shi to Shen Shi.
The people who came here to watch the ceremony seemed to understand this.
When it was almost time, everyone started to fall silent.
Shen Han stood in the crowd, tilting his head slightly and watching.
Everywhere in the surrounding scenery is full of solemnity.
The important ministers in the court were already standing in front of the altar at this moment.
This time of offering sacrifices and praying to heaven is mainly to pray for Shen Han and others who are participating in the Ten Kingdoms Competition.
Naturally, Shen Han also followed Dean Tianyi to the front.
When the time comes, the ritual music of the sacrifice begins.
A group of people dressed in ritual attire, playing ritual music, slowly passed through the road.
The sound of ritual music lingers.
At the same time, an old man, dressed in more luxurious sacrificial attire, held a golden scepter in his hand.
The old man looked a little staggering in his steps, but his whole body was full of majesty.
Walking to the center of the altar, the golden scepter suddenly inserted into the square tripod.
Then he spoke plausibly, as if he was really chanting words to call upon the gods.
Beside me, the ritual and music procession became louder and louder, and the tunes became faster and faster.
The old man is the minister of Yingtian in the Wei Dynasty, a person who inherits the will of heaven.
It was Shen Han's first time to participate in this kind of sacrificial ceremony, and his eyes wandered around a little.
At this moment, I saw some people I didn't want to see.
Not far away on the west side, two masters and apprentices, Luo Zuchen and Shen Ye, were standing there.
As if aware that he was looking at him, Luo Zuchen also squinted his eyes slightly and looked at himself.
There was a ferocious look in his eyes, which seemed to have the power to kill someone.
If other people saw this, their momentum would have already weakened.
But Shen Han didn't care about this and just looked at him.
No matter how fierce he is, I am still as calm as before, not afraid of him at all.
If you think about it carefully, Luo Zuchen has taken action against him so many times.
It was only the first time that he attacked me secretly, causing me some injuries.
Later, he tried to assassinate himself with one blow, and wanted to take his life away in his incarnation.
But once again, he succeeded.
Therefore, why should I be afraid of him?
Seeing Shen Han looking at him brazenly, Luo Zuchen's eyes suddenly revealed a smile.
I don't know what this smile means.
Shen Han is already immune to these.
In front of the sacrificial altar, the old man kept circling the golden scepter.
The words that come out of your mouth never stop.
It looks like he is really praying to heaven.
And following the old man's words, mysterious visions began to appear in the sky.
It seems that three auspicious clouds have fallen over the sacrificial altar.
Three colors: red, yellow and purple.
Xiangyun followed the old man's words, as if he really heard his call, and began to flow gradually.
There were many people watching around with expressions of reverence on their faces, as if they had really seen a miracle.
About half an hour later, the old man finally stopped.
He looked solemn and pointed at the scepter in front of him.
A loud voice: "Please offer sacrifices to the heaven!"
The old man's voice was extremely long, and his words were full of solemnity.
Shen Han looked towards the center of the sacrificial altar.
After a moment, the high-ranking saint stepped out.
This was Shen Han's first time meeting this holy lord.
Somewhat different from what I imagined, this Great Wei Sage seemed to be
There is also some kindness.
This was indeed Shen Han's first impression. There was a slight smile on his slightly older face, but it was not harsh.
Other people of the Wei Dynasty should also feel that he has a touch of kindness when they look at him.
Rumor has it that he is very old.
But from what I can see in front of me, it seems that my longevity is still very long.
The saint just twisted the golden scepter on the altar.
Then the auspicious clouds in the sky changed, and the three-color auspicious clouds intertwined together, which seemed to be showing some kind of sign.
Shen Han also felt that it was mysterious, but he did not believe that it was God's will.
Thinking about it, it must be a vision summoned by some method.
After a while, something was offered and thrown into the cauldron.
"Sacrifice, worship!"
With a loud shout, everyone responded with courtesy.
About a quarter of an hour later, Minister Na Yingtian spoke again.
"Pray to heaven for blessings on the great Wei Dynasty.
Praying for God’s will, get up!”
The sacrificial ceremony has ended, and next is the prayer to heaven.
Praying to heaven means to deduce and pray for blessings.
It is equivalent to a prediction before departure to pray for blessings.
Behind him, Dean Tianyi patted Shen Han's shoulder gently.
Shen Han also understood and stepped forward.
Twelve people stepped forward from the surroundings and walked to the altar of sacrifice.
At this moment, these twelve people are the absolute protagonists, enjoying the attention of countless people.
Shen Han glanced at the others.
There didn't seem to be any acquaintances. It was probably the first time for him to meet the other eleven people.
"Inherit the great fortune of heaven, overcome the waves of the world, and strengthen the prestige of Wei!"
Pray to heaven for good luck!”
The old man's aging face showed a sense of majesty.
He took out the golden scepter in his hand and pointed it straight at the sky.
Then he spoke plausibly again and kept chanting.
While chanting, he stepped down from the sacrificial altar.
The scepter in his hand began to tap on everyone's bodies.
Every time you tap it, the auspicious clouds in the sky will sparkle and move.
Thinking about it, this should be some kind of auspicious sign.
The prayer ceremony of the first four people seemed to go smoothly.
Until the golden scepter touched Shen Han and tapped it down.
The previous auspicious omen suddenly changed.
The auspicious clouds that were originally sparse in the sky turned dark in color, like ashes and dust.
Even the plump appearance gradually faded away.
Around the sacrificial altar, the people who had previously been silent now began to whisper to each other.
There was a hint of panic in the eyes looking at Shen Han.
Not only that, the face of Minister Yingtian who was holding the staff in front of him seemed to change.
Take back the scepter in your hand.
The auspicious clouds in the sky instantly returned to their previous purple aura.
This change in the vision seems to indicate that Shen Han is carrying something ominous.
The entire ritual of praying to heaven came to a standstill at this moment.
Everyone held their breath.
The golden scepter touched Shen Han's body again.
That auspicious cloud was indeed the same as before.
It was originally full of purple auspicious signs, but the moment it came into contact with Shen Han, it became dilapidated and lonely.
The Yingtian minister shook his head solemnly, and the scepter in his hand touched the next person again.
Sure enough, when the scepter touches the next person, it is another auspicious sign.
Shen Han frowned and thought quickly in his mind.
What kind of providence, what kind of luck.
It's just a way for some people to manipulate people's hearts and grasp public opinion.
The minister Yingtian in front of him seemed to be targeting himself intentionally and wanted to turn himself into an ominous person.
It is similar to the Shen family's desire to ruin their reputation.
It seems that it will be even worse if this ominous name falls on me.
You will be ostracized and prejudiced as a matter of course.
While thinking about it, Shen Han's thoughts were moving.
