"One emperor through the ages? Master the rules of the world?" Shen Zhui was slightly stunned.
He did not expect that Zen Xin would have such a high opinion of the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
"Definitely, that's absolutely the case!" Zen Xin said excitedly. "There has never been a dynasty or sect that has been able to achieve this, allowing ordinary people to quickly grow into powerful men."
"If the rules of the world were not changed, it would be impossible for such an unnatural situation to occur."
"That's awesome. Your Human Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty is too powerful." Zen Xin lamented. "Shen Zhui, just imagine, if the Human Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty had a better luck storage method than your teacher, and the whole world They are all his subjects..."
Shen Zhui was startled, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.
Indeed, if you think about it from another person's perspective, if you were the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the luck of the entire world was for your own use, and everyone became a strong man through civil servants, then your luck would be either red or purple. Then your own strength How strong does it have to be?
How strong should the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty be?
"The realm of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty is beyond what I can imagine. For such a character to create new rules, I am afraid that a single thought can destroy the true god." Zen Heart sighed.
However, Shen Zhui quickly returned to normal. For him, the level of the Heavenly Emperor was too far away from him. Even the true god was far away from him, and it was useless to think about it.
Chen Qingshan saw that Shen Zhui had a strange look on his face and did not doubt him. He thought he was just in shock and didn't think much about it.
After a pause, after Shen Zhui regained his composure and listened, Chen Qingshan continued: "Although the civil service path is a shortcut, it is only a relative term."
"Every non-commissioned officer must be selected through layers of screening and cannot be given an official position easily."
"The second thing is what Brother Shen said. The foundation is not stable. It can be given due to merit or taken away due to fault. Moreover, political achievements may sound simple, but in fact they are difficult to obtain."
"There are so many officials in the world, how many of them can be called capable officials? Most of them are officials who rely on hard work and hard work."
Shen Zhui nodded, not everyone can be a civil servant.
First of all, one's strength is given by the imperial court, and the hierarchy is strict and strictly supervised by the bureaucracy. For example, if a seventh-grade official in the Xiantian realm holds an imperial edict, he will be beheaded even in the supernatural realm and cannot escape. It can be said that it depends on the transfer.
Secondly, it is difficult to achieve political achievements. The Great Zhou Dynasty implemented a feudal system. Each vassal state had great autonomy, and the princes were first-class powerful men. If officials wanted to achieve political achievements, they would undoubtedly harm the interests of the big family, which would Conflict with the nobles of the vassal states. Unless you simply work for the vassal states, but then you must have this qualification.
Even if these two problems no longer exist, the Zhou Dynasty has been pacified for more than 800 years, and the predecessors have done almost everything they can. Unless they become an official in a newly conquered territory like Bianzhou, they want to Achieving political achievements requires time and qualifications.
The last step is the selection of officials.
If you want to become an official in Dazhou, there are three major ways:
One is to get an official position by being recommended by others. This recommendation system only applies to the family, and is usually assigned to direct descendants or people close to the person in power.
The second is various banquets held jointly by local prominent families and officials.
This kind of banquet has no threshold and anyone can participate. The person hosting the banquet will have previously formulated a theme, either a poem or a scripture, and the participants can answer according to the theme they are good at.
The winner in the end will get the chance to become an official.
It not only gives opportunities to those from poor families who are not descendants of the family.
Such as the Qiuyue Review in Heyuan City, the Winter Hunting Banquet in Qin State, the Sifang Banquet in Dai State, etc. This method is very popular in various countries.
However, now that big families have power, many banquets have invisibly raised the threshold. It is even more difficult for ordinary people to enter. In the final analysis, the taste has changed.
There is only the third type, the academy system, which is distributed in various university palaces all over the world. There is basically no threshold, at least there are no conditions for entry at the beginning. Whether it is literature or martial arts, as long as you are talented and willing to learn, you can
Great chance to get ahead.
However, the number of official positions is small, and it is difficult for disciples from poor families to compete with elite disciples with background resources in any aspect. It is even more difficult to break out from thousands of students and be recommended by the academy.
Moreover, there are no unified assessment rules in the world, and weak schools can easily be influenced by big forces.
It can be seen from this that the path of civil servants is not necessarily easier than that of military officers.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhui was filled with emotion. No wonder the big family can cover the sky with one hand and is difficult to cut off. It is really deeply rooted.
"Brother Chen." When Shen Zhui heard this, he couldn't help but think of it. "Is it possible that this secret realm of the Holy Word also makes us constrained like civil servants?"
"Of course not." Chen Qingshan smiled and shook his head. "The Great Xia Academy existed during the Apocalypse era, and the Great Zhou Dynasty was only founded more than 800 years ago. Although the Human Emperor incorporated it into the official system, this Saint
The Secret Realm of Words has strict cultivation requirements for entry, and one must at least be at the peak of Lingqiao to enter. The foundation is already established and it is difficult to control it."
"Besides, is it possible that the world is full of civil servants and there is no need for generals?"
"The combination of civil and military affairs is in line with the principle of yin and yang. Learning the art of holy words means that you become a civil servant and are bound. You just gain one more ability."
"And the Academy is just an Academy. It is responsible for recommending talents to the Great Zhou Dynasty, but it is not a government agency."
"The classics of the gods and the holy words are not unique to the Great Zhou Dynasty, but existed in ancient times. It was only after the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty that they were unified and matured, and became the fighting method of civil servants."
"That's it." Shen Zhui nodded immediately.
The art of the Holy Word, the supernatural power of the Holy Word, and the classics of the gods were not all pioneered by the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was only during the Great Zhou Dynasty that they developed to their peak and formed a system.
"Civil officials have existed since ancient times, and the art of Holy Words has also existed since ancient times. However, the cultivation system of civil servants was pioneered and realized by the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty."
"This is why the current Emperor's achievements are not the 'Creation of the Grand Ceremony' but the 'Creation of the Grand Ceremony'." Shen Zhui thought to himself.
Of course, the establishment of a temple was also pioneered by the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty. It was also the foundation of the civil service system. Without divine power, everything was just talk.
…………
"Brother Shen, here we are, let me show you how the students from the Lower Society of the Academy practice the Holy Word." Chen Qingshan waved his hand and immediately raised the curtain of the carriage.
"A student from the society?" Shen Zhui also followed Chen Qingshan out of the carriage. With a wave of his pen, Chen Qingshan took the carriage back.
Shen Zhui took a quick look and saw that the lower house that Chen Qingshan was talking about was a spacious townhouse, with many young people wearing Confucian shirts hurriedly walking through the wide square.
Inside and outside the house, on the stone table under the tree, there were people holding books and reading. Shen Zhui took a quick glance and found that there were at least a thousand people here, and they were all in the Xiantian realm!
However, most of them are in the Xiantian realm, and very few are in the Spirit Bridge realm. As for the magical power realm, there are only a few people, who are obviously either teachers or martial arts practitioners.
"Huh?" After taking a few steps, Shen Zhui was attracted by a venue.
I saw a place where people gathered in front of me. There were more than a dozen teenagers gathered together, standing on two sides.
There is a young boy of fourteen or fifteen years old on each side, gathered in front of a floating white paper.
The two teenagers each held a small yellow willow pen and stared at each other with flushed faces.
Around them, there were many teenagers cheering for the two of them.
"Come on Xiaozhi, knock her down quickly!"
"Xiaohui, don't be afraid. Xiaozhi has just reached the first level. He is no match for you."
"Look, Xiaozhi has finished writing the first word first."
A burst of cheers erupted from the surroundings, and then, Shen Zhui discovered that the pen tip of the boy named Xiaozhi had already left the white paper.
The next moment, the black words on the white paper suddenly squirmed, and in less than a moment, they actually stood up directly from the white paper!
This is the word for ‘person’.
Although it seems to become a bit complicated and awkward after standing up, it can still be seen that the boy named Xiaozhi is written with this character.
The character '人' stood up a little slowly and tremblingly, as if it might fall down again at any time.
This font slowly grew to half a meter high, then stopped moving, and the young man's face was already red.
finally--
"Da~" Shen Zhui saw the word '人' taking the first step, and the line was like the sole of a foot, stepping on another place.
After the first step is taken, the second step follows.
"Da da da~" The footsteps gradually became denser, from stumbling at the beginning to slowly and steadily moving forward, with excited eyes on the young man's face.
On the other hand, the girl opposite him, Xiao Hui, was sweating profusely. Shen Zhui noticed that what she wrote was a "big" character. When Xiao Zhi walked towards Xiao Hui, her big character was still there. Still in a semi-erect position.
"Da da da~" The word '人' gets closer step by step, and no matter how long the white paper is, it will eventually run out.
finally……
"Pfft~" The word '人' hit hard against the character '大' that had just stood up and not yet fully unfolded.
A burst of cheers erupted from the surroundings, and a messy ink stain appeared in front of the girl's body. The large characters fell down again, and the handwriting could no longer be seen.
On the other hand, although Xiaozhi's human character also fell down together, the traces of the character "human" can still be vaguely seen next to the ink mark.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
This magical scene made Shen Zhui's eyes light up.
Although whether it is a human character or a large character, the aura contained in it is not worth mentioning in Shen Zhui's eyes, and it is not even offensive.
However, in Shen Zhui's eyes, it seemed that a brand new door had opened. This was a way to build vitality that was different from Five Elements Wind and Thunder.
With Shen Zhui's current state, he could forcibly bind the ink to form three-dimensional characters, but he could not make it walk or even attack on its own.
"Brother Shen, this is a game that is often played by students in the Lower Society. It has the effect of training spiritual knowledge. However, their understanding of the Holy Word is far from being an introduction. They can only rely on special pages to make the fonts appear. , none of them can be called 'skills'." Chen Qingshan explained.
"The two sides are purely to see whose handwriting can absorb more spiritual power while pushing forward, and to suppress others purely with strength. Whoever writes bigger fonts and takes shape earlier will win. It's just a superficial method. .”
Chen Qingshan smiled and said: "When they can completely separate the fonts from the special pages and form characters in the air, then they will be considered to be out of the lowest level and can study in the Central Society. They will be able to exert some power."
Shen Zhui withdrew his gaze and nodded.
When he fought with Chen Qingshan, the opponent's 'Luo', 'Mountain', and 'Sword' could make Shen Zhui, who was half a step into the supernatural realm, confused.
As for the ultimate sacred word of destiny, it has even been refined into a sentence, which contains profound meaning and infinite power.
"Let's go, Brother Shen, you and I will go to the Central Society to have a look." Chen Qingshan extended his hand and asked.
"Thank you, Brother Chen." Shen Zhui nodded. He was completely attracted by this holy word technique. This secret technique that does not consume spiritual power and is driven entirely by spiritual thoughts is simply miraculous.
Next, Shen Zhui followed Chen Qingshan to the Central Community area.
The age range of students from the Chinese Society is relatively large.
There are handsome young people and middle-aged men. The Xiantian realm has become rare, and the Lingqiao realm is gradually becoming more common.
However, the number has also become smaller, with only three to four hundred people.
"Senior Brother Chen."
"I've met the owner of the restaurant."
"It's Senior Brother Chen who's here."
After crossing the barrier and entering the Zhongshe, Shen Zhui immediately saw many people greeting Chen Qingshan.
"No need to be polite. I am here to visit with a friend. You can continue to practice." Chen Qingshan waved his hand to stop the students from the Chinese Society from continuing to come to see the ceremony.
Shen Zhui had known for a long time that Chen Qingshan was the master of Liushan Zhai, but he did not expect that the other party had such a high status. Every step of the way, there was no one who did not respect Chen Qingshan.
"Three Mountains and Sixteen Zhais, I am only at the bottom. Now that I have broken through to the realm of supernatural power, I will soon give up Liushan Zhai to others. I can only compete for the four places of Jingxinzhai, Dingxinzhai, Fanxinzhai, and Daoxinzhai in the magical power realm. The position of Lord of Great Fasting.”
"With Brother Chen's strength, isn't it easy to capture him?" Shen Zhui said with a smile.
Chen Qingshan waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Brother Shen, don't be ridiculous. If I reach the intermediate level of supernatural power, or raise the Holy Word to another level, to the point where I can follow my words, otherwise I will not be able to hold the position of the lowest level of meditation master." , there is no possibility at all.”
Shen Zhui nodded. He also knew the three levels of the Great Xia Academy: Three Mountains and Sixteen Chambers, Spiritual Split Bridge, Divine Power, and Venerable.
Among them, the Spirit Bridge Realm and the Divine Power Realm account for four each, while the Venerable Level has eight. Only the strongest in each path can obtain this honor.
As Chen Qingshan came to a competition area in Zhongshe, Shen Zhui watched a game again.
This time, the competition of the students of Zhongshe started to show its strength.
There is no longer a special page as a foundation. The two students, both of the middle level of Lingqiao, formed characters in the air and turned into strange people, beasts and objects to attack each other.
The speed is no longer slow, it has almost reached the speed of a whistle. Every attack and collision has the power of the peak of Lingqiao!
"Brother Shen, this is Liu Shan Zhai, where I usually practice." Chen Qingshan pointed to the palace building in front of him, built on the mountainside halfway and surrounded by willow trees.
"Liu Shan Zhai?" Shen Zhui nodded and followed.
At this moment, the barrier on Liushan Zhai suddenly flashed, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, blocking their way.
