[235] Family hegemony

The liveliness of the battle for the family's martial arts ranking is naturally self-evident, and in the Tianmen Xinglan City, it seems that you can feel the atmosphere of tension and depression, or excitement. Although the competition stipulates that the contestants must have two family members, the regulations treat all families equally, and everyone is the same, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Moreover, in this way, the major families can be more concerned and invested in this competition. In the past, as long as some families had money and power, they didn't worry about their results in the competition at all, because they were able to hire a better martial artist than other families. With a powerful worship martial artist, there is naturally no disadvantage, at least it is no problem to maintain the original position.

In a small courtyard, Xie Feng walked into the room with Zhou Changfeng and the others, took a seat, and immediately someone sent the Zhou family's self-produced high-quality tea. The emerald green liquid rippled with the fragrance of tea that moistened people's hearts, and as the people of the Xie Empire continued to come to the Shatara Galaxy, they also brought the ancient Chinese tea-making technology on the earth to the Zhou family.

Two different regions, but very similar civilizations and technologies are combined with each other, so the Zhou family has researched and produced a very high-grade tea, and with the help of the Yan family and the Chu family on the sixth trade planet, there are faint signs of monopolizing the tea market. This is also the reason why Yihongmen and Qingyangmen came up with the idea of ransacking the Zhou family and put it into action.

The development of the Zhou family is indeed very eye-catching.

Xie Feng and Zhou Changfeng chatted with each other for a while, and they didn't say anything in depth, this time they came mainly to see the excitement. After all, the Family Martial Arts Ranking Competition is a grand event in the entire Penglai Empire, and it only happens once in ten years. In this kind of competition to determine the level of the family, some families can be promoted, and some families will be relegated because of their lack of strength.

This is a way for the Penglai Empire to coordinate the balance of the family's hierarchy, and there are winners and losers to call it a competition. If each family is moving up the ranks, then, in less than 100,000 years, the entire Penglai Empire may not have enough territory to distribute to these families. Moreover, the royal family does not want to see certain families become stronger and stronger, and when the power of a family crosses the bottom line of those at the top of the pyramid, it will inevitably be subject to unspoken rules.

Therefore, there is a rise and a fall is the way to balance. Unless the Penglai Empire can continue to expand its territory, it must learn to control. After Xie Feng studied the family promotion model of this world, he also sincerely admired the Emperor Xuanyuan family of the Penglai Empire in his heart. In particular, Emperor Xuanyuan, the founding king of the Penglai Empire, who formulated this regulation, has a long-term vision.

In addition to Liang Yan, Luo Jun and Metfu, there are also two core members of the Zhou family, one of whom is Zhou Hong. After this half a year of cultivation, coupled with the later use of the martial arts assistance system, his strength actually broke through the sixfold internal strength and reached the sevenfold realm.

In the seventh-class family, in addition to the older generation, the internal strength of the sevenfold is already a very great strength. Even Zhou Changfeng and the others, who have cultivated for decades, have not long been able to enter the sixth level of internal strength. There is no way, the exercises of the small family are indeed not very good, but the Zhou family meets Xie Feng, which can be said to be a great opportunity.

Xie Feng not only sent someone to help the Zhou family compete in the family level competition, but also gave the Zhou family a book of advanced cultivation exercises, and what made the Zhou family even more excited was that Xie Feng also gave the Zhou family a few sets of martial arts auxiliary systems that should have been used within the Dragon Gate. For the Zhou family, Xie Feng's great kindness is like reconstruction.

Three days later, the family martial arts ranking competition, which all the families were worried about and looked forward to, finally kicked off. Tianmen Star provides a total of ten competition rings for the participating families to use. The first thing to start is Wendou, that is, strategic deduction. This is an extremely time-consuming competition.

Five people from each clan will need to participate in three tournaments against three different clans from each tier group. The Penglai Empire's family has a total of nine levels, and it is divided into four groups: A, B, C, and D. Group A is the competition between the top three families, and Group B is a battle between the fourth, fifth and sixth families, and in order to advance to the first class, this group of matches is often the most intense.

Further down, there is the battle between Group C, Seven, Eight, Nine, etc., and the same, the degree of regularity is not weaker than that of Group B. Everyone wants to be on the top, especially the seventh-rank family, and the family at this level is the most powerful to compete for the upper qualification. And the goal of the Zhou family in this competition is to enter Group B.

As for the final group D, it was set up for those families who had just been formed within ten years. These families don't have any rank yet, they don't have formal family domains, and if they want to qualify, they will have to finish in the top 10 in this competition. That is to say, every ten years, only new families whose strength reaches the top ten in Group D will be able to obtain a level, and thus obtain a territory that is not very large.

The battle in Group D is also extremely fierce, there are many families participating in the competition, but there are only ten places, and the difficulties can be imagined. Generally speaking, unless the family established within ten years is really strong, it is difficult to fight against those new families who lost in the previous competition. This also means that if a family wants to obtain a hierarchical fief, it will take at least more than ten years to accumulate and develop.

After the draw, the Zhou family's battle table came out soon. Relatively speaking, the possibility of relegation of the seventh-class family is very high, and the three games are against the ninth-class family Lei family, the eighth-class family Sun family, and the seventh-class family single family. These three families can only pose a threat to the Zhou family and the Shan family and the Sun family, and as for the ninth-class family, they basically don't need to be taken into account.

Of course, this is just common sense, and no one can say for sure whether the Lei family, a ninth-rank family, will be a group of powerful dark horses. Just like the dragon gate, if you don't make a sound, it's just a blockbuster. If it's not black, it's already black, and it's black to the end. After the martial arts disciple competition some time ago, many people hope that a group of powerful dark horses can be killed in the small family, frustrate the prestige of the big family, and satisfy the psychology of the weak who want to become stronger.

Of course, this situation is basically a once-in-a-century situation, unless a small family gets the help of a hidden powerhouse, otherwise with its own strength, this possibility will not appear at all.

Compared with martial arts, the uncertainty of cultural fighting is higher. Especially in the battle between small families, no one knows how high the players sent by the other party are in the field of military command. After all, Wendou relies on brains rather than strength, and people who play resourcefulness are generally hidden.

"Well, have you collected information about the three opponents?"

In the air stand specially chartered by Xie Feng, Gao Ta saw Zhou Changfeng coming back in a small flying machine, and immediately asked him.

Zhou Changfeng's face was a little solemn, and he said to everyone: "Because the rules of this competition have changed, the major families have put their main strength on martial arts, and among the five people who competed, three of them were basically powerful martial artists. Very few people hire military advisors anymore, so it is difficult to get information about opponents. ”

Martial arts matches are best-of-five, which means that each family must win three games in order to win. However, the competition stipulates that two core members of the family must fight, which makes many families give up the advantage of Wendou and no longer hire military advisors, but hire three martial artists who will fight in the main battle.

As for Wen Dou, it can only be the family members themselves. After all, martial arts competitions are the main event, and the points obtained are higher than those of Wendou. No one is going to risk a lot of effort in Wendou. After all, most of the military advisors are literati, and most of them are very weak, and even some military advisors are just ordinary people.

Even if you can win the civil fight, if the martial arts fight loses too badly, it will be useless. Therefore, each family has put the main force on martial arts this time, and as for Wendou, each depends on its strength. After all, in a world where martial arts are respected, force is what most people pursue and yearn for. People who play military strategy basically stay in the Imperial Army. Once the war between empires begins, they will have a chance to show their talents.

In the past, the position of military advisor was hard to find, but in this competition, the military advisor has become a pitiful child that no one wants.

Looking at the worried looks of Zhou Changfeng and the others, Liang Yan said with a smile: "Master Zhou, don't worry, the three of us have received the most professional military command training, and we have done this kind of training many times. Although we are not as good as those masters in the staff, we are still more confident than most people. ”

Zhou Changfeng was stunned, and everyone looked at Liang Yan, Luo Jun and Metfu. I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, these subordinates of Young Master Xie Feng were so strong that they had even received military command training? Xie Feng said that his hometown is very strong

Because of the regulations of this competition, the Zhou family did not hire a military advisor. Of course, the military advisors hired in the past are just wise men who know more about strategy, and in terms of strength, they are not half a little worse than those real military advisors hired by the big families.

Liang Yan's words are not untargeted, the reason why he was able to stand out and become a general in the special operations unit is that in addition to his own strength being strong enough, he also has a certain talent in strategic command. After all, in interstellar warfare, the power of the individual is still very small, and if you want to be reused, the most important thing is the art of war command.

The armies of the Xie Empire and the Earth Federation Government are very large, but most of the warships are still operated by robots, which shows how serious the lack of talents is. Therefore, the troops of the Xie Empire and the Earth Federation Government are basically soldiers and must receive military command training.

The Zhou family looked at Liang Yan and turned their eyes to Xie Feng again. Seeing their questioning looks, Xie Feng smiled, "Don't worry, the military command instructors in our hometown are all senior generals of the army who have experienced thousands of wars, and all kinds of famous interstellar war battles have been compiled into textbooks by them and taught to every officer." Liang Yan's grades in the Military Academy are good, hehe, in the Penglai Empire, he shouldn't lose in a competition of this level. ”

The level that Xie Feng was referring to was, of course, a battle between clans. If the opponents of Liang Yan and the others were the military advisors of the Penglai Empire, it would be difficult to say. After all, everyone's energy is limited, and Liang Yan and others pay attention to the improvement of their own strength.

However, after listening to Xie Feng's words, the people of the Zhou family were all excited beyond words. They really couldn't imagine that these subordinates of Xie Feng turned out to be generals with all-round talents in civil and military affairs. This time the promotion of the Zhou family is definitely a foregone conclusion, with the help of such talents, what else does the Zhou family need to worry about?

Excitement and joy filled the hearts of the elders and elders of each week. A few eighty or ninety-year-old guys excitedly wanted to kneel down and thank Xie Feng for his great kindness to the Zhou family. Xie Feng didn't let them kneel down with his mental strength, he smiled: "You don't need to be like this, I do things according to my mood, as long as I like it, it is not impossible to help your Zhou family develop into a first-class family." If you thank me, keep this heart in your heart, and if you encounter a Longmen disciple in difficulty in the future, just help more, hehe"

While several people of the older generation of the Zhou family were shocked by Xie Feng's magical power, they also sighed in their hearts. A young man like Xie Feng must not be a thing in the pool, one day, he will definitely be able to do something earth-shattering in the Penglai Empire and even in the entire Hongmeng Galaxy.

With such a powerful help from Liang Yan, Luo Jun and Metfu, the Zhou family became more down-to-earth. Anyway, in the Wendou of this competition, everyone should let the family members come out, and the strength is not much stronger. If you can earn more points in Wendou, it will naturally be the best.

While Xie Feng and the others were talking, the game in the ring below had already begun. Unlike martial arts, each game is normally played for an hour. Before the start of the competition, after the contestants received the battle map, the number of troops, arms and weapons, etc., they first conducted a 20-minute deduction, and then began to conduct a simulated war on the computer.

Halfway through the war, the two opponents can also carry out a later strategic deployment and deduction. In the end, whoever wins in the simulated war will get three points, two points will be deducted for defeat, and one point will be awarded for each draw.

In the ring, the two families who were competing nervously carried out the final strategic deployment. The losing side finds a way to stabilize the situation in the following battle and get at least one draw. The side that has the upper hand naturally has to calculate how the enemy will defend, so as to make a new strategic deployment, take advantage of the victory, and finally win the game.

In the center of the ring is a huge multi-screen display screen in the shape of a siege ball, and the audience can clearly see the game from that angle. The players on both sides seem to be military generals in the family, and their strength is average, and they are not vulnerable at all in the eyes of Liang Yan and others.

However, the strength of the two opponents in the game is between the two sides, so the fight is also a bit tragic. On the screen, the warships are making the latest deployments and arranging new formations. Ten minutes later, a new round of fighting began. This time, the originally losing side successfully calculated the enemy's psychology and deployment, and finally stabilized the entire battle situation and forced the opponent to draw.

After the game, the side that had the upper hand was remorseful, and the victory that was about to come was forced into a draw. There are errors in calculation, which also shows that the opponent's strength is very strong. Being able to get back step by step from a disadvantaged situation shows how accurate their deduction is in the later stage.

After another round of games, it was finally the turn of the Zhou family to play. The opponent in the first game was the Sun family, an eighth-class family, who had encountered this opponent in the past, and was very strong in the Wendou competition, and the Zhou family had lost to this family twice in a row in the past twenty years. Fortunately, the martial arts match performed well last week, so they avoided the crisis of relegation.

It's not that the enemies don't get together, I didn't expect that the Zhou family and the Sun family would meet in three consecutive competitions, and I have to say that it is very fateful. The first two times the Zhou family lost to the Sun family was because the head of the Sun family had a powerful military advisor friend, and this time, it was time to be ashamed.

"Haha, I didn't expect that after ten years, we would meet again in this cultural fighting ring. Are you ready this time? Our Sun family will not show mercy to you just because you are a seventh-rank family. As soon as a middle-aged player from the Sun family stepped onto the stage, he began to joke about their old rival who had lost to them twice.

Zhou Hong's eyes fell on one of the opponent's players, and he suddenly frowned. Liang Yan patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young Master Zhou, let's go, they will know how powerful we are in a while." ”

Zhou Hong nodded and silently walked to the seat on the Zhou family's side. But he was wondering in his heart, the young man on the other side seemed to have seen it somewhere, and suddenly, he remembered the name of the merry Sun Ershao. In the past, when I was walking with my teacher outside, I heard about the reputation of the merry Sun Ershao, and he had a very high talent in the field of military deduction.

"I didn't expect that this merry Sun Ershao was a member of the Sun family, he should be the apprentice of that old guy, no wonder the old guy known as the Heavenly Wolf Military Master has been staying in the Sun family and not leaving, it turned out that he accepted an apprentice." Thinking of this, Zhou Hong whispered to Liang Yan and the others: "The three big brothers should be careful, the other party seems to have a master in charge." ”

Liang Yan smiled after hearing this, "Don't worry, once we go to the battlefield, we don't despise two words in our dictionary." No matter whether the enemy is strong or weak, we will fight with all our might. If the opponent is really strong, we have nothing to say if we lose if we are not as good as others. ”

Looking at the confident smiles on the faces of Liang Yan and others, Zhou Hong was also infected by them and was full of confidence in the game. Since Xie Feng has commented that these three people are good, I don't think they will lose

At the beginning of the game, Liang Yan and others immediately led the battle map, with the Zhou family as the red side and the Sun family as the blue side, in addition to the two forces, there was also a fleet played by the computer as the black side. The battle takes place between the three, with the computer acting as a pirate, taking the opportunity to interfere with both sides in the robbery battle, but not attacking the main forces of both sides.

After Liang Yan quickly flipped through the comparison of military forces between the three parties and the terrain in space, he couldn't help but smile on his face, "There are even pirates, it's really interesting, this is a good chess piece."
