Chapter five hundred and ninety-fifth the power imbalance between the north and the south
In recent years, the Central Plains world has been strangely peaceful!
The sudden decline of the ten major sects, which were the backbone of the world, did not cause turmoil in the world, or make the world quiet. Instead, it showed a prosperous momentum in which a hundred flowers bloomed.
The main reason is that the Tianxiahui popularization of basic martial arts has had its effect. People who grew up relying on a third-rate secret book suddenly appeared in the world, making the world lively but without causing huge chaos.
It should be said that the entire Northland arena was very lively, especially the arenas set up by the World Association and various levels of arena competitions. It was really lively with everyone participating.
The overall strength of the Northern Jianghu has increased at a speed visible to the naked eye, rapidly widening the gap with the Southern Jianghu, and the trend is getting bigger and bigger.
Especially when a large number of rookies from the northern arena went south in groups in the name of competition and exchange, it caused a series of shocks in the southern arena.
There is no way, the plate of the Southern Jianghu is so big, and the newcomers from the Northern Jianghu come in droves to grab the food, which naturally attracts the dissatisfaction and rejection of the local Jianghu forces in the South.
Fortunately, Tianxiahui and Wushuang City suppressed it effectively. Although there were constant small conflicts behind the scenes, large-scale martial arts fighting did not occur. Instead, the North-South confrontation was played based on various arena competition systems in the North.
But the final result made the forces of Southern Jianghu dumbfounded. In the competition between rookies of the same age and strength, Southern Jianghu suffered a complete defeat and even had to reluctantly give up some of their benefits. Who could tell them to fail in the ring competition?
.
As long as they are not life-and-death enemies, both the northern and southern martial arts circles are now accustomed to resolving conflicts and disputes through ring combat.
Now that we are in the ring, we naturally have to show off some winnings, and we have nothing to say if we lose.
But faced with the embarrassing situation where the heroes of the southern arena were almost completely defeated in the ring battle, Wushuang, the leader of the southern arena, was in trouble.
"The Tianxiahui is really a bunch of bastards. They have nothing to do with spreading martial arts secrets. Now that the situation has improved, it will be difficult to deal with it!"
The city lord of Wushuang City, Dugu Fang, was so depressed that he almost vomited blood. He already felt the suffocating pressure coming towards him. If nothing was done, Wushuang City's dominance in the southern arena would be shaken.
But the current situation is that there is an explosion of newbies in martial arts in Northland. Novices in martial arts at all levels are emerging one after another, almost to the point of overflowing. The entire Northland has almost completed one-fifth or even one-fourth of the population.
There are family members who have achieved success in martial arts.
Such a situation made Dugu Yifang feel endless terrifying pressure.
It can be said that due to the vigorous promotion of Tianxiahui, every county in the North has two libraries, civil and military, and supporting martial arts halls, as well as a series of group competitions with various rewards, as well as various
All commercial packaging has been launched, resulting in an equal number of people studying literature and practicing martial arts.
Even because of the unique environment of Fengyun World, practicing martial arts is even easier and simpler than studying literature. As long as you can ensure that you are seventy percent full, you can practice successfully regardless of nutritional factors. This makes the martial arts in the North so fierce that the distance is so great.
There is not much difference between everyone like a dragon.
Under such circumstances, all forces in the southern arena felt tremendous pressure.
If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is a universal truth!
The number of new talents emerging in the North is like a spurt, but the South still follows the previous rhythm, with a martial arts inheritance model based on master-disciple inheritance and family inheritance. Naturally, the number of new talents that can be launched is still about the same as before.
But while the arena in the north is exploding, the arena in the south is in a situation of retreat if it doesn't advance.
By the time the rookies from the Northern Jianghu formed a group and went south to gain presence, experience points and reputation, the Southern Jianghu was so suppressed that it was almost difficult to raise their heads. All the discerning Jianghu bosses were alarmed and knew that it would definitely not work if it continued like this.
With this situation going up and down, it is estimated that in another twenty years, the Southern Jianghu will be completely suppressed, and it will never be able to stand up again.
Even if the well-known martial arts sects and martial arts families in the south are safe and sound, and can even take this opportunity to develop and grow, but when the bottom rivers and lakes with the largest foundation in the entire south are suppressed or even submerged by the rivers and lakes in the north, the right to speak between the rivers and lakes in the north and the south will be completely unbalanced.
.
Unless the Southern Jianghu can continuously produce such amazing masters without any pause in between, there is a possibility that the Southern Jianghu will be completely suppressed.
Such an embarrassing situation naturally makes the big bosses of the Southern Jianghu very dissatisfied, but they dare not go beyond the rules and act recklessly. The Tianxiahui in the North is not a joke. If their misbehavior attracts the Tianxiahui, it is estimated that the South
The life of heroes in the world is even more difficult.
As a result, the important task of revitalizing the Southern Jianghu was concentrated on Dugu Yifang through various channels. He felt like there were two Mount Tai on his shoulders, weighing him down so much that he could hardly breathe.
Isn't this a scam?
When something good happens, they all swarm in. No one in the southern world wants to let Wushuang City get the benefits first. Now when Wushuang City needs to shoulder its responsibilities, they are not polite at all.
On the surface, Dugu Yifang is naturally bold and generous, showing that he doesn't take the heavy burden seriously, but in private, he curses a lot, which is really deceiving.
At this time, the shortcomings of Wushuang City's family business model became apparent.
Because the family members are mixed, and the number of trustworthy generals is limited, the territory that Wushuang City can directly control or have significant influence does not account for one-third of the entire south.
Although the territories controlled by Wushuang City are all the best places in the south, they cannot conceal the problem of insufficient real control area.
Originally, this situation was enough. Wushuang City did not need to spread its stall too big and too open like Tianxiahui. Dugu Yifang did not have the strong strength and broad mind like Lei Hu. He was worried that his control was not enough, so Wushuang City could really
Limited area of control and influence.
If there is an invasion by a foreign enemy, the business model of Wushuang City can be used to its maximum effect, and there will be no problems due to control. However, the situation is different now, and Dugu Yifang feels helpless.
If you want to keep up with the development speed and momentum of the northern arena, the best way is to learn from the practices of the Tianxiahui, set up civil and military libraries in every town in the south, sell third-rate and lower-level secrets as well as internal skills and mental methods at low prices, and completely let go
The threshold and restrictions for starting martial arts practice.
Anyway, there is a precedent set by the Tianxiahui. As long as you follow the example, even if you make mistakes, there won't be much deviation, and you will still be able to achieve results in the end.
However, Wushuang City's coverage of the forces in the south is insufficient. In addition, Dugu's policy is very different from that of Tianxiahui. It is impossible to completely copy the way in the north and cultivate a large number of rising stars.
Wushuang City has collected and analyzed a series of measures taken by the Tianxiahui in the north. Naturally, it is known that the martial arts promotion plan of the Tianxiahui is not that simple. In addition to setting up an almost free civil and military library in the branch and numerous group competitions,
There is also publicity and a set of supporting business plans.
After many years of analysis and research by many talented people in Wushuang City, Tianxiahui’s entire set of martial arts promotion plans are closely linked, and if any link is missing, it will not be sustainable.
If we want to set off a trend of martial arts training in the entire Northland, it is obviously not enough to rely on the Tianxiahui alone. A number of sects and martial arts families in the north are also actively participating, providing people, money and resources. Under the leadership of the Tianxiahui, the current Northland has been established.
The flowery scene of rivers and lakes.
In the past, Dugu Yifang often laughed at the fact that Lei Hu, the leader of Tianxiahui, made wedding clothes for others. After the popularization of martial arts, the most rapid development was those sects in the north and martial arts families. On the contrary, Tianxiahui did not get many benefits, and the biggest benefit was that
Just a nice reputation.
But from Dugu Fang's point of view, what kind of false reputation as the leader of the Northern Martial Arts Alliance has no tangible benefits to make people happy?
Now, when it was his turn to be forced to learn from Tianxiahui's practices, he painfully discovered the importance of having a good reputation.
Wushuang City's behavior has always been domineering, and its pursuit of interests is not as gentle as that of Tianxiahui. It adopts an exclusive attitude and has no intention of sharing the benefits.
Anyway, the strength of Wushuang City is enough to suppress the martial arts in the south, and it doesn't care about the dissatisfaction and resentment of others at all.
But when it was time to concentrate the southern martial arts resources for work, Dugu Fang was depressed to discover the negative consequences of his overbearing behavior.
Except for a few forces with excellent connections or attached to Wushuang City who were willing to act together, the other forces in the south did not pay much attention to Dugu Yifang's greetings.
It is not easy for the Dugu side to use force, because these southern forces have strong grandmasters in charge. Even if they are not as strong as him, they are not far behind. Offending several strong grandmasters at once is an unbearable burden for the Dugu side.
As a result, Wushuang City can only learn the planning methods of the Tianxiahui to popularize martial arts in its own territory and the territory of friendly parties, and the effect will naturally be greatly reduced. The key is that it is accused by the southern Jianghu comrades of "disregarding the life and death of comrades", which is simply depressing.
To die.
Indeed, most of the rookies trained according to the Wushuang City model benefited Wushuang City in the end. As for the other forces in the Southern Jianghu, it would be great if they could get some scraps.
Such a result will naturally make the southern Jianghu forces dissatisfied.
But so what?
Dugu Fangfang feels that everything he can do has been done.
It's not that he is unwilling to work hard, but that some forces are clamoring loudly, but they are asked to contribute efforts and resources to relax the threshold restrictions for martial arts training, but they are not willing, and they still want to get the benefits in vain?
Dugu Yifang is not the leader of the world's gang, Lei Hu, and he looks down on the rookies who have been trained in the arena. He values such rising stars who have been trained through constant actual combat.
As for Wushuang City taking the initiative to give up its benefits and benefits, don't even think about it.
Under such circumstances, the imbalance of power between the north and the south will be an irreversible fact...
