Chapter 1 Martial Arts Style
After tens of thousands of years of vicissitudes of life, the Chinese mainland was overturned and born. In the vast grasslands and forests in the south, the elves and beasts live quietly according to the laws of nature; in the endless snowfields in the north, the barbarians live from generation to generation; and the east and west are the places where races and civilizations meet on the continent, and there is no racial distinction and racial discrimination. No matter what kind of continent race they come from, they can find a place to live here.
Since the emergence of human beings on the Chinese mainland, the civilization on the Chinese mainland has begun to develop rapidly. The infinite development of scientific and technological civilization has enabled human beings to continuously unravel one unknown place after another, and understand the exploration and pursuit of human abilities by ancient human beings. Through communication with other races, humans also learned about the power of nature that transcends technology. This has made mankind more and more aware that it is not enough to rely on the strength of technological civilization alone.
More and more people are looking for ways to hone their own human abilities. Soon people realized the preciousness of the cultivation exercises left by the ancient ancestors. However, precious things must be accompanied by snatching, and fierce snatching has evolved into war, and many powerful organizations and families do not hesitate to fight for the precious method of refining the body.
At this time, the rise of the three major powers made the war quickly come to an end. It is now the three top national capitals on the eastern and western continents: the capital of martial arts, the capital of forests, and the capital of wind. The reason why the three major forces were able to quell the war was not because of military force, but because under the circumstances at that time, there was a martial artist in each of the three capitals who had successfully cultivated the ancient method of refining the body. Their ability to destroy a city with a single raise of their hands has made the forces of all sides begin to fear, and cowardice turns to fear, and fear turns to submission. In this way, the fighting subsided, and peace was restored to the Chinese mainland.
The three martial artists teamed up to build an alliance called: "Wulin Feng". At the same time, they also established martial arts training places in their respective capitals, namely Chongwu Academy, Lin Wu Academy and Fengwu Academy. It is stipulated that outstanding talents will be selected by the Wulin Wind Alliance and sent to the three colleges for training.
The people who enter the academy are all young talents with good talents. Among them, there are many outstanding children of major families, from high-ranking officials and nobles to poor people, all of whom are constantly working hard to enter the three colleges. There is no question of the difficulty of the test for the selection. However, it has not diminished people's pursuit of power and status*.
The triennial selection meeting is decided by voting among the capitals, and the capital city that hosts the conference will be supported by the rich resources of the Wulin Wind Alliance, which makes the competition for the capital city not inferior to the competition level for the selection of martial arts talents.
This year's martial arts selection conference will be particularly strict, because the host city is the capital of the alliance - Lidu. Today's Lidu is already overcrowded, and the streets and alleys are crowded, so it's not lively.
Lidu, almost the imperial city, is the most powerful capital except for Wu, Lin, and Feng, which is of course inseparable from the support of the alliance. Then there are the four major forces in the capital, the Lin family in the east city, the Ma family in the west city, the Liu family in the north city and the Sima family in the south city. Before the four major forces had not yet been in the Martial Arts Wind Alliance, they were the top forces on the continent. After the appearance of Wulin Feng, in order to balance the power on the continent and extinguish the flames of war, the three martial artists jointly built the city of Lidu with the four major forces, and placed the headquarters of the alliance in Lidu. In fact, it is to supervise the four major families, after all, the fierce beasts that have quieted down are not without danger.
With the power of the four major families, the alliance gave each family two exemptions and five participation places at this conference, which was already a great benefit. For other forces, they have to come up with sponsorship to get quotas.
The so-called quota is actually a letter of recommendation from a famous martial artist, not that you can't participate in the conference without a letter of recommendation. As a kind of guarantee, if you are willing to sign a life and death certificate, you can also participate, martial arts selection is not a beauty contest, the test set is naturally a test to see the potential of the participants, and danger is inevitable. As the saying goes: wealth and danger are sought, and being selected is to soar, the future is unlimited, and there is naturally no shortage of brave people. Participants who don't have a letter of recommendation are born with great strength, or have learned a trick and a half from others, but for some reason they can't find a recommender.
The four major families in Lidu City are now busy selecting the family members who will participate in the selection conference tomorrow, and they don't care about him for the time being. Let's say that there is a shirtless man on the left and right sides of the gate of the Sima family's mansion, with a straight chest, a bulging big yang hole, and a face of dead flesh.
In front of the gate stood a thin middle-aged man, who was not outstanding in appearance, wearing a purple brocade gown with an embroidery of the word "Wu" on his chest. When the man came to the gate, the shirtless man said in a tough voice: "Who are you, if you have something to hand in the prayer post, leave immediately if you have nothing to do!"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I'm here to see the head of your family, this is a prayer." Dahan took the post, his face couldn't help but become serious, he looked up carefully at the middle-aged man in front of him, when he saw the embroidery of the martial arts on the man's chest, Dahan's expression was a little unnatural and said: "Mr. please, I don't know that Mr. is here, please forgive me for the inappropriate words just now." ”
"It's all right, there are very few people who are so faithful today. The middle-aged man said with a smile. The big man smiled unnaturally, and led the middle-aged man towards the mansion.
Sima's living room. "Big brother, I don't know who Chongwu Academy will send to deliver the letter of recommendation this time. The person who spoke was Yu Xuan, and his eyebrows were heroic, and it was the second eldest of the Sima family, Sima Wentian.
"No matter who it is, if you dare to be arrogant to me in Sima's house, he will suffer it. The person who spoke had slightly thin cheeks and looked out of the hall with a mocking gaze, he was the third child of the Sima family, Sima Wenzhong.
"Wen Zhong, don't look like this when people come for a while, after all, I'm here to send a letter of recommendation to my Sima family, and it's okay to be polite. Sima Tianming, the head of the Sima family, who had been closing his eyes, said lightly.
"I know, big brother. Sima Wenzhong said.
Outside the door, the voice of the subordinate sounded: "The guest has arrived!"
"It's coming," Sima Wenzhong said with a smile on his face. The middle-aged man walked slowly into the living room, Sima Wenzhong looked up with a smile, the smile on his face instantly froze, and he said sharply: "It's you!"
