When Ali brought the news, Chu Tianjiang was also shocked.

"This is the patriarch's decision, and I have no right to oppose it."

"Patriarch?"

Ali nodded and said, "I don't know what happened to the Dao, but when I knew the Dao, the news of your victory in the primary elimination round had already spread. Of course, all the members were shocked and didn't believe that you could defeat so many powerful opponents, especially Ba, who was hand-picked by Beman. It's just that the news was released by the patriarch himself, so no one doubts the authenticity of the news. ”

"And then there was a lot of registration?"

Ali smiled bitterly and said, "Is this a good thing? ”

"What do you say?"

"I don't think it's a good thing."

"Of course, it's not a good thing for me, but it's not necessarily a bad thing for you."

"This ......"

"Enthusiasm is just the result, but why?"

Ali frowned, as if he didn't understand what Chu Tianjiang meant.

Chu Tianjiang smiled and gave Clara, who was sitting not far away, a look, and asked her to seize this opportunity to analyze the situation for Ali.

"The reason is very simple, that is, Chu Tianjiang changed the predetermined result."

Ali paused for a moment before looking at Clara.

"It's just that any result is affected by many factors, the main cause is the most important, but other factors cannot be denied." Clara paused for a moment and said, "If no one deliberately publicized Chu Tianjiang's victory, then not many people would know about it. If it was an ordinary person who preached this victory, then no one else would necessarily believe the news. Since not many people know the Tao, or not many people believe it, the impact of this incident will not be as great as it is now. ”

"You mean, the patriarch's preaching is also important?"

"Of course, it's very simple."

Ali was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile. It was a very simple truth, and she had thought of it a long time ago, only to be framed by Clara.

"So, why does the patriarch want to make a big deal about it?"

"This ......"

"Let's take a guess." Clara smiled and said, "You mentioned before that the first opponent that Chu Tianjiang defeated was Beman's replacement. Although the patriarch did not announce the ranking, according to my speculation, since Beman's replacement lost to your replacement, then his ranking in the family will obviously not be above you. That is, one of the grandsons of your patriarch will be after you. ”

"That's for sure, there's no reason for him to be ahead of me."

"So, your patriarch, do you care much about his descendants?"

"This ......"

Clara smiled, and without waiting for Ali to speak, she said, "If my guess is correct, your patriarch only publicized the victory of Chu Tianjiang at this time, which is nothing more than to let all the clansmen know that Beman's defeat is inevitable because he has encountered a strong opponent. ”

"This ...... Do you have proof? ”

"No, but there is one thing that indirectly proves this suspicion."

"What's the matter?"

"The primary elimination round is divided into seven rounds, and the patriarch didn't preach it before, but waited until the end to preach it, doesn't that just show that my guess is not wrong?"

"This ......"

"Because only then will the propaganda be effective and convince all the clansmen that the guy who defeated Ba in the first round is indeed the strongest player in this round. To put it another way, it's like saying that even if he meets Ba in the last round, he is the ultimate winner, so Behmann's ranking does not mean that he should be behind everyone else because he lost in the first round. ”

Ali's brow jumped a few times, and he probably understood Clara's words.

"The problem is that when the patriarch publicized this, he didn't take into account that this kind of large-scale propaganda would have an unintended impact."

"What do you mean?"

Obviously, the patriarch's intention was only to cover up Beman's failure, but after the family selection was over, Beman was given a fairly high status. Of course, he may also have an intention, that is, to tell all the clansmen through this incident that in the three-dimensional universe, changes are universal and not predictable, so that the clansmen can recognize the new environment and adapt to the new environment as soon as possible. ”

Ali nodded, indicating that he understood what Clara meant.

"The question is, since change is unpredictable, who knows who will emerge victorious in the end? In other words, is it possible for all participants to be the ultimate winners? ”

"This ......"

"Obviously, before this, almost no one among your people believed that as long as they participated, they would have a chance to win the most difficult victory."

Ali pouted, that's true.

If it weren't for a special purpose, she wouldn't have participated in the family's internal selection at all.

"In that case, why don't you get involved? Even if it fails, it will only be a replacement that will be lost, and the guy standing behind the replacement will not be affected much. ”

"At least the family ranking will change."

"For a member like you who doesn't have much status in the family in the first place, even if the ranking drops a little, what is it? On the other hand, even if you don't become the ultimate winner, as long as you can win a few rounds, then there is a good chance that the family ranking will rise significantly, right? ”

"This ......"

"That's gambling."

"Gambling?"

Chu Tianjiang shook his head with a smile, and said to Ali, who was full of doubts: "In your four-dimensional universe, because the result is predestined a long time ago, there is no such thing as 'gambling'. However, in the three-dimensional universe, because no one can predict the outcome, there is a 'gamble'. ”

"Can you elaborate a little bit?"

"To put it simply, gambling is a game in which two or more parties, in the case of the result is not out, the result is predicted, and some capital is bet, and the accurate prediction will get all the capital of each party, and the wrong prediction will lose all the capital."

Ali pondered for a while before he understood the concept of "gambling".

"In fact, your patriarch did not anticipate this at all, because he did not understand what gambling was. Even those who participate do not understand the meaning of gambling, but their actions are already gambling, they just don't know what to do. ”

"The result?"

"It's good for you."

"This ......"

"Regardless of the next wins, at least enough people have hope for change, and they want to get more out of it. If you want your sister to come to this world, you need to change the status quo, and you need to get the support of other members. Only when enough family members want to change and are committed to changing will those old ways be completely abolished. ”

"And then establish a new order?"

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "Any new order is established after the overthrow of the old order, so the old order must be abolished first. ”

"But ......"

"For me, that's very bad."

"For what?"

"Because that means I have to fight more than 20 more battles to become the last champion, and no one knows what kind of opponent I will meet."

"Anyway, the family members who signed up later were not very good."

"Really?"

"That's true, most of them are about the same as me."

"Don't forget, I'm your replacement, and since I'm able to perform miracles, what can't those replacements like your family members do?"

"This ......"

"In fact, I'm just as worried about change as you are."

Ali was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chu Tianjiang in surprise.

"If my opponent has always been a guy like Ba, there's nothing to worry about."

"For what?"

"Yes, Ba is very powerful, but he is not like me, he is just a tool in the hands of Beman, and he may have been under Beman's control when he was born. Obviously, an existence similar to him must also be a tool in the hands of those family members whose status is comparable to that of Beman. ”

"This ......"

"Ba's defeat to me is inextricably linked to the fact that he was deeply influenced by Beman, and my ability to perform miracles has to do with the fact that I have been very little influenced by you."

Ali frowned, thinking about Chu Tianjiang's words.

"Obviously, in the hands of those family members who are similar to you, there must be substitutes similar to me, and these substitutes are uncertainties."

"Like you?"

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "Through you, I have some understanding of your family members, so I have the same understanding of those who are deeply affected. The problem is, it's impossible for me to get to know the substitutes who haven't been affected much through your family members, you know? ”

"You don't know your opponent, so your odds of winning have decreased?"

"Not only is the probability of winning reduced, but it also takes more wins to become the champion of the last place, which means that the possibility of winning the last win is extremely slim."

"Actually, there's no need to worry about anything."

Chu Tianjiang smiled, of course he knew the meaning of Dao Ali's words.

"No matter what, I'll keep my promise. Even if I lose the next battle, I will give up half of the star systems I have acquired to human civilization. ”

"I'm sure you can do it."

Ali nodded and said, "Although I can't provide more guarantees, as long as I am still here, the development of human civilization will not be affected." ”

Chu Tianjiang also nodded and didn't say anything more.

In this situation, Chu Tianjiang has no choice but to believe in Ali. At least now there are Clara, Nichol and Natasha compared to the past. Even if you suffer a failure, you will not be left without support.
