Lu Zhaonan nodded: "Exactly, it has been like this in the past, but the people of the big school have an age advantage, so their strength is generally strong, otherwise they will not be distinguished in the competition, two of the four big schools that have been eliminated this time may be relegated, and the middle school will have two chances to advance!"

"If I want to challenge all the contestants of the Great Sect Academy, can I bring any different changes to the Heavenly Road?" Nie Lin said.

Lu Zhaonan knew that Nie Lin had the strength to challenge all the great schools, so he just nodded and said: "The reason why it is called a replacement competition, that is to say, if the overall strength of the new schools surpasses them, they will have the qualification to apply for the promotion to the Great Sect, if you want to challenge everyone and win, it is nothing more than to win higher popularity and popularity for Tianlu, making Tianlu more influential, and the result is still an application qualification for advancing to the Great Sect!"

Yang Yuxiao and Lu Xueyan, who had been listening silently next to him, glanced at each other and looked at Nie Lin together, because they had already guessed how Nie Lin would choose.

Sure enough, I heard Nie Lin say: "Since I can win greater popularity and influence for Tianlu, challenging one is winning, and challenging a group is also winning, why don't I trample all the big teaching schools under my feet, and let the people of the world see how Tianlu rises strongly?"

At this time, Yang Yuxiao said: " I have investigated the four major schools shortlisted this time, their ages are all stuck at the age of eighteen, there is no exceedance, it is estimated that they are also for the challenge of the day after tomorrow, the strongest one is from Luohai Academy, called Luo Changning, eighteen years old, seventh-level swordsman, also known as a kendo genius, very strong, this time the competition of the big school, he was shortlisted with a total victory, and the other three are also the strength of five or six level swordsmen, compared to the middle school, they are very strong, if other middle schools want to get the qualification to apply for the promotion of the big school, it will be very difficult！”

Lu Xueyan said: "The strongest in the Middle School Mansion is only a sixteen-year-old fourth-level swordsman, it is indeed very difficult to challenge these four major academies, so if they want to fight with us for the qualification to apply for the promotion to the Great Sect, the hope is not great, Nie Lin, if you want to challenge the contestants of the Great Teaching Academy, in fact, with your strength, there is no need to challenge everyone, as long as you can defeat the most representative and strongest Luo Changning, it is enough!"

Lu Zhaonan nodded and said: "Yan'er is right, the reputation and status of Luohai Academy have been rising in recent years, in addition to the Royal Academy in the capital, it has become the first academy of the Great Sect that deserves its real name, because of the current situation, all forces are also paying attention to this academy, as far as I know, they seem to have established a cooperative relationship with the Divine Sword Sect last year!"

Nie Lin said: "In this way, there are a total of eight great teaching academies in the world, haven't they all been divided by the seven major forces?"

Lu Zhaonan nodded and said: "When the imperial power gradually declines, the power of the family and the sect will naturally grow, and these institutions that cultivate and export talents for the country will naturally be carved up and robbed, but they don't dare to do it blatantly!"

Nie Lin understood that when the royal family was weak, the power of the sect and the family would swell, and the game between the four major kendo families and the three major sects in the world would also be fierce.

In this way, if Nie Lin wants to challenge Luohai Academy and defeat its representative Luo Changning, it is equivalent to indirectly defeating all the Great Teaching Academies, and also behind this, between the games of the major forces, he will naturally be able to obtain the greatest bargaining chips for Tianlu and advance smoothly.

At this time, Tianlu is going to be lightning fast, before the major forces have discovered the true purpose of Tianlu, to advance to the Great Teaching Mansion and restructure the Sect Sword Academy, and make a final decision, taking everyone by surprise.

And when all the forces are in the game, they find that after Tianlu is promoted to the Great Education Academy and restructured into the Sword Academy, they will naturally find the Yang and Liu families behind Tianlu, but they want to stop the development of Tianlu, it is already too late, if this sectarian school is formed, even if all forces want to suppress it, and the royal family wants to curb it, it is necessary to weigh the consequences, this is the curve development strategy customized by Lu Zhaonan, which is destined to be unexpected, but it is impossible for other academic schools to follow the trend and take this road again, and the success of Tianlu to develop into a sect is impossible to be replicated againNo other force would want to see a sect formed under their noses in such an unexpected way.

Therefore, in this way, the great schools in all parts of the world will naturally be baptized and suppressed again, and the chance of success is zero.

Of course, these are all afterthoughts, at present, the development strategy of Tianlu is still in secret, Lu Zhaonan hinted to remind Nie Lin of some words, but also hoped that he could attract the attention of the vast majority of people in this competition, and he had a good relationship with Jian Weng and some people in the shadows.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, Lu Zhaonan didn't say anything, and after Lu Xueyan went over and opened the door, he saw a ceremonial officer walk in, looked at Nie Lin and said, "The replacement competition is about to start, can you Tianlu Academy choose to challenge the qualification to apply for the Great Sect, or give up the replacement competition and wait for the finals tomorrow?"

"Of course, I want to challenge the qualifications to apply for the promotion to the Great Sect!" Nie Lin said.

The ceremonial officer nodded and said: "There are four finalists for the Great Sect this time, namely Luohai Academy, Qingtian Academy, Blue River Academy and Kongmingyi Academy, you can choose one of them to challenge the qualifying competition, if the challenge is successful, you will have an application qualification to advance to the Great Teaching Academy, if the challenge fails, your ranking in the Sword Boy Competition will not be affected, nor will it affect your winning position, but you will forever lose the qualification to apply for the promotion to the Great Teaching Academy, so there is only one chance!"

Lu Zhaonan said: "Then please report to this adult, we choose to challenge Luo Changning of Luohai Academy!"

When the ceremonial officer heard this, he took a breath, and looked at Lu Zhaonan with a respectful expression: "Master Lu, the strength of this Luohai Academy is very strong, and the other three major colleges in this session are not weak, and there is only one chance, so after many middle schools learned the information of these four colleges, they all gave up the qualification to apply for the challenge, and planned to apply again depending on the situation in the next session, you choose to challenge, and you have to challenge the strongest Luohai, the odds are not big, as far as I know, the Luohai Academy is a seventh-level swordsman, a young genius!"

When Lu Zhaonan heard this, he smiled instead, and said: "Since other Chinese teachers have given up, then we have to challenge even more, if we can succeed, then this year, Tianlu will recruit talents from these Chinese teachers, and it is clear that it is right, right?"

The ceremonial officer seemed to understand what Lu Zhaonan meant, and nodded immediately: "If Tianlu can successfully advance, then according to the usual practice, you can recruit talents from all the middle schools in the empire, since Lord Lu has decided, then the lower official will immediately report and announce it!"

As he spoke, the ceremonial officer turned his face to Nie Lin and showed a strange smile, and said: "Nie Lin, now the odds of your sword are one to two, and the odds of not being able to sword are one to one, but if you want to challenge Luo Changning in the substitution match, it is estimated that the odds of not being able to make a sword will be tripled, the opportunity is actually in your hands, this is also an opportunity to make money, we bought your sword, don't let us down, haha, say goodbye first!"

After the ceremonial officer left, Nie Lin looked at Lu Zhaonan with a strange expression and said, "This time, it seems that I still can't use the sword, how much did you let people buy?"

Lu Zhaonan said with a smile: "The first two games, there is no suspense for you, we have earned 160,000 taels of silver, and we have gained a lot, but after all, there is a suspicion of being done in the dark, and this time you have to challenge Luo Changning, we have only one chance to apply for promotion, the other party is equal to your strength, we can't let you take risks, you decide for yourself whether to make a sword or not to make a sword, this time we didn't bet!"

"In that case, the 160,000 stakes I don't have a sword, and I am confident that the 160,000 taels of silver will become 500,000!" Nie Lin said.

Lu Zhaonan thought about it, then turned his head to Yang Yuxiao and said: "Yu Xiao, you go and inform your cousin and let them do it, but be careful, this time there are a batch of officials who bet a lot of money, these people are the key people in whether we can advance to the Great Sect, we must make them satisfied!"

After Yang Yuxiao gave up, he nodded to Nie Lin and went out first, Nie Lin said: "There won't be any problem in bribing those officials in this way, right, after all, that woman is also the key?"

Lu Zhaonan said: "Although the woman is strong, the royal power is not weak enough to let her do whatever she wants, after all, these officials are all old foxes, and they are more than anyone else, I won't tell you in detail about these political things, you just care about the game!"

...... On the field, because the break time is about to pass, the whole stadium is crowded with people at this time, and almost more than half of the people in the capital have gathered here, waiting for the next more intense and more anticipated game.

The ceremonial official who had informed Nie Lin before came out and combined with the others, and after they met a look, another ceremonial official announced loudly: "In this year's substitution competition, there are eight representatives from the Chinese Education Academy, and four representatives from the Great Education College, according to the practice of the Sword Boy Competition, the substitution competition will determine the application qualification of the Chinese Education Academy to be promoted to the Great Education Academy, and now it is officially announced ......."

Speaking of this, the ceremonial official paused, and at this time, the entire meeting place was silent, and after the ceremonial official glanced at the audience, he said loudly: "This official announces that in this substitution competition, the seven representatives of the Chinese education institutions will not participate in the qualification challenge......"
