"Bang-"

The eight floating boats slowly approached the air dock around the Liaoyuan, like eight lice jumping onto the back of a sea turtle, and the size difference between the two sides was huge.

With reverence, Li Yao set foot on the Liaoyuan.

Today's Liaoyuan has been transformed into a war museum, and as soon as he stepped off the foredeck, Li Yao saw a huge bronze statue carved of a naval officer with a resolute face, holding the long sword in one hand and pointing not far away with the other, as if he was roaring loudly.

Even if it was just a statue, there was a kind of bloody battle to the end, an indomitable momentum, and Li Yao could even vaguely hear a roar of lightning and thunder coming from inside the bronze statue:

"Sink Amano!"

This is the first and last captain of the Liaoyuan, the statue of "Ping Yuantao", a cultivator in the Dan period.

On the base of the statue, there are also nine words engraved, which is a famous sentence once said by Ping Yuantao.

According to legend, Ping Yuantao once joined the cultivation sect when he was a child, at that time the Tianyuan Realm was still a paradise for demon beasts, and human beings could only struggle in a few towns controlled by the cultivation sect, and the Star Glory Federation had just been established, and no one even regarded it as a country, but just a loose organization established between the nine cultivation sects in order to communicate with each other conveniently.

At that time, Ping Yuantao joined the cultivation sect with a large group of teenagers, and the elders in the sect asked them according to the custom, why did they want to cultivate the truth?

The teenagers gossiped and talked a lot, some people said that it was for glory, wealth, money and beauty; Some people say that it is for immortality and eternal freedom; Some people say that it is to learn a hundred kinds of supernatural powers, a thousand changes, you can do whatever you want, and you can cross the world; Some people also say that it is to kill demons and protect relatives and friends.

And when it was Ping Yuantao's turn, he said nine words:

"Cultivating for the rise of the Federation!"

One hundred years later, Ping Yuantao used his life to add a brilliant footnote to these nine words, and these nine words have also become the motto of countless cultivators of the Star Glory Federation, inspiring them to expand their territory, kill demon beasts, and build the Star Federation into the most powerful human country in the Tian Yuan Realm!

"So handsome!"

Although I have learned the story of Ping Yuantao more than once in the textbook and heard this sentence, but I saw this sentence on the Liaoyuan, it is said that it is still written by Ping Yuantao, and the meaning is naturally very different.

Li Yao also wanted to go over to take a group photo, but Zheng Dongming dragged him directly inside, saying that he wanted to take him to see the excitement.

"The statue is here, and it won't run away, but the big scene inside has to be seen early, and you won't be able to squeeze in if it's late!"

"What's the big scene?"

"Before each extreme challenge, the nine elite joint schools will hold a 'two-way exchange meeting' outside the arena to introduce the power of the 'Nine Greats' to the candidates, and also have the meaning of attracting cultivation geniuses to apply for the exam, there are a total of nine booths in the cabin, and there are 'Nine Greats' cultivators who communicate directly with the candidates, the scene is very hot, you should hurry up and get in!" Zheng Dongming said familiarly.

"A cultivator from the 'Nine Greats'?" Li Yao's eyes lit up, and he didn't need Zheng Dongming to drag him, so he suddenly sped up.

Entering the cabin on the first floor, the huge space was crowded with thousands of students, and the atmosphere was full of people.

The hall is divided into nine separate sections, each with the name of a university hanging over it.

Zheng Dongming looked left and right, and pulled Li Yao towards the area of the "Heavenly Illusion Academy".

"Why did you go to the Heavenly Illusion Academy first? Is this university the most comprehensive? Li Yao was a little puzzled, it seemed that there were the most people crowded on the side of the booth of the Heavenly Illusion Academy.

"Who cares if it's strong or not! Heavenly Fantasy Academy is the only school in the 'Nine Majors' that specializes in cultivating literary and artistic cultivators, and the beauties in the school are famous for their large number and good quality, and they are all super literary and artistic! Zheng Dongming swallowed his saliva, his eyes shining.

The two of them finally managed to break into the crowd, but they saw that the booth of the Heavenly Illusion Academy was very simple, with some calligraphy and painting works hanging on the walls around them, and in the corner on one side, there were several college students with half-squinted eyes, shaking their heads, immersed in the world of music, and on the other side, there was a young man with unkempt hair and a scruffy beard, trembling all over, reciting poetry.

In front of them, however, was a classical beauty in a white robe with waist-length black hair, concentrating on painting.

Li Yao looked along her crystal jade fingertips, and found that her painting style was completely different from that of the deity, and with very fierce and sharp brushstrokes, she painted a scene of a dilapidated small fishing boat fighting with an eight-clawed sea monster in the midst of turbulent waves.

"That's a good drawing......"

Although Li Yao didn't understand art, he also felt a thrilling taste from this painting, nodded lightly, and there was a faint sound of waves in his ears.

The sound of the waves?

Li Yao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly found himself on the foredeck of a small fishing boat that was violently turbulent, and the waves of the sea slammed into his head, and the fishy sea water poured into his nostrils and mouth, and the sound of the roar of demon beasts was in his ears!

Looking into the distance, surrounded by an endless and violent ocean, I looked up and saw that the eight-clawed sea monster's mountain-like head was above the small fishing boat, and two blood-red strange eyes were staring at him, emitting a soul-stirring light!

"Ahh

Li Yao was horrified and couldn't help but scream.

This cry seemed to shatter the illusion, and the soul returned to the shell, already dripping with cold sweat, as if in another world.

Looking around him again, Zheng Dongming's face was also as pale as dirt, and his legs trembled slightly.

"Now you know how powerful a literary cultivator is, right? This big beauty has no malice, and the painting is only half completed, so it can drag us into a terrifying illusion, if she takes the initiative to attack and uses the finished painting, do you think you can still escape? Zheng Dongming said in a trembling voice.

Li Yao breathed a long sigh of relief and recalled the scene just now when the eight-clawed sea monster was staring at him in the illusion.

Until now, he couldn't believe that it was just an unfinished painting that created such a terrifying illusion.

Literary and artistic cultivators are indeed extremely terrifying beings.

"Alas, although there are many beautiful women, these literary and artistic cultivators are all crazy, and they can't be provoked lightly, they can only be watched from a distance, and they can't be blasphemed! It's not good, you see the guy who is chanting poetry over there, his face is red, and he is about to get carried away with it, and when the mental power explodes, I don't know what a terrifying illusion it will create, let's go quickly, it will be bad if he drags him into the illusion, I don't want to enter the spiritual world of an ugly man! Zheng Dongming dragged Li Yao, squeezed out of the crowd, and came to the booth of the second university.
