Chapter 223: Demon Martial Arts?

I wish you all progress in your studies in the new semester. Of course, this is also a premise, that is, to collect Xiao Cripple's book first (in a wicked smile).

By Xiaocripple, although the outcome of the game has been decided, everyone on the lookers was a little stunned!

I don't know how long later, a round of applause rang out in this quiet environment. It seemed so harsh and discordant, but then the applause and shouts rang out like thunder!

Yes, although I look down on you and envy you, although I am losing money. But this does not mean that I can't be excited about your watch! Your wonderful watch deserves my applause and praise, and it can be said that from this moment on, Lin Jun's position has changed a lot in the hearts of these nobles.

Lin Jun didn't have a deep grudge against them, it's just that they couldn't get used to seeing a civilian in such a showmanship, but the strength that Lin Jun showed at the moment made them feel shocked. The value of the interests between getting acquainted with a strong man and making an enmity with a strong man is naturally well understood!

In any case, now people are real real-name nobles with their own territories. For those of them who don't really have a noble title and a small piece of territory, they can only be called nobles!

If they don't have enough ability, they may not be able to win the status of nobility, and they may not be able to inherit the status of nobility!

If a person wants to get the status of nobility, if he is a magician, even a trainee magician can get the title of knight, but if he is a fighter, he needs to reach the strength of a knight. And the lowest strength of a knight is also a high-level fighter! It is much more difficult than a magician, which is also the reason for the nobility of a magician!

But knights are only the lowest nobles! But this kind of nobleman has a lot of money, and in addition to being able to own his own estate, it is difficult for this kind of title to have his own territory! Not to mention that the cost of running a manor is not a small amount, so many people with the title of nobility on their heads are just a hollow cabbage, without money and power, and they have nothing to show for themselves!

Because those who have the title can be said to grab a lot of money, but it is the lucky ones who can own the territory.

In addition to relying on inheritance, there is also the fastest way to obtain a territory, and that is to go to the battlefield and kill enemies!

But in every war, the children of those big nobles usually bring a large group of retinues to the battlefield, in order to be able to obtain more military merits in order to expand the strength of the family again, and it can be said that there are very few people who can stand out! Although this is a little unfair to those people, but there are many unfair things in this world, and they don't care about more such things. Moreover, the fact that those nobles' private soldiers can go to the battlefield also greatly reduces the pressure on the empire, so the empire also turns a blind eye to this kind of thing!

Of course, if you're lucky enough to get a territory, you don't necessarily have to be the true lord of the territory!

After all, the Soul Star Continent is too big, although on the surface the territory occupied by the Griffin Empire and the Biser Empire is very large, but after all, it is just a map drawn, and many forces are also the storage of the local snake!

Unless you have the strength to suppress them and defend your sovereignty, you may be able to become a superficial lord, but without any right to govern. The other is to be directly driven away, and the empire will not provide any help in this regard! After all, what the empire needs are those who are strong enough, if you can't even handle these people, what qualifications do you have for the empire's assistance?

In a world where the strong are respected, if you have a big fist, you can have power, and if your fist is small, you can hold it, and one day when your fist is big, you will hit the enemy! Of course, it is not excluded that there is a kind of talented person, and it is common for the empire or those families who fancy his future to help them deal with some obstacles!

So in general, jealousy is jealousy, but Lin Jun's take-off momentum is well known to everyone! Of course, there are naturally more ways to obtain the territory, for example, it is also a very good way to take refuge in a big lord, and the big nobles can divide their territory and hand it over to the nobles under their own control, which is also a good way to obtain the territory!

But the disadvantage is that it is limited to accepting people, after all, no one wants to become someone else's retainer casually, and no one wants to submit to the feet of others casually. And a big nobleman will inevitably have his own subordinates, so even if you want to be a retainer of someone's family, they may not be willing.

It can be said that all the nobles who watched this game have the idea of befriending Lin Jun, after all, if they can get the appreciation of a big nobleman, even if they get a small territory, it will be several times better than others! A nobleman with a territory and a nobleman without a territory are not at the same level at all, even if this person's title is higher than that of the nobleman with a territory!

Because when a nobleman has a territory, it means that he can openly recruit private soldiers! If a nobleman who has no territory but has private soldiers is often detained for the crime of treason, he will be directly beheaded by the law enforcers of the local area supervised by the royal family, and he does not even need to be reported, and if a nobleman with his own territory suddenly dies, he will inevitably be tracked down by the empire.

Later, it was traced by the empire, and the family disappeared the next day. Later, an acquaintance went to their family and found that all the people in the family had died in a deep sleep, and from this moment on, many families began to face up to these so-called royal families that they did not value in their eyes! The forces that have been able to develop for so long are not idiots, and naturally understand how much strength it takes to slaughter a force overnight!

Therefore, many families will give a preventive shot to those who are away from home, they don't want the family created by their ancestors to be destroyed in a snap of their fingers, then there is really no place to cry!

Therefore, the nobles who own the territory are equivalent to blessing a talisman on themselves, as long as they are not too ostentatious and arrogant. The children of those families are also respectful of these people, and they will not provoke them lightly, and they have to guard against the lessons of the past!

Therefore, if a marquis is a distinction of a person's title, then possession of a territory is a distinction of aristocratic power and status!
