Chapter 203: Naypyki (1)
Zhao Lin walked quickly, wanting to catch up to see what was flying, but found that it had been out of the detection range of ultrasonic waves and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"What a speed!"
"Is it a harrier or an owl?"
Zhao Lin stopped, looked at the pitch-black woods, and pursed his lips.
According to the echolocation feedback, the animal flying in the air just now did not seem to flap its wings, but directly shuttled through the air.
It is also much larger than the average bird and somewhat cat-like in shape.
"Strange, what's flying so fast?"
Zhao Lin muttered to himself and stood in place for a while.
Despite his doubts, it was too late, and instead of continuing his research, he returned to his residence, closed the doors and windows, and went to bed.
In the following days, he ran around Guyan Mountain every day, patrolling around, but did not find anything abnormal, and then gradually relaxed.
"Maybe it's a big bird that I met just when I was gliding through the air."
……
In mid-October, Zhao Lin returned to the inner courtyard.
Originally, the first day of the new month was the day of the Inner Courtyard Competition, but this month it was canceled because there was another more important event: the Inner Meeting.
There are three major sects in Dayue: Xingyun Sect, Liyang Sect, and Zhennan Sect.
The young warriors who are eligible to participate in the martial arts competition are all from these three major sects.
In order to allow the disciples to accumulate practical experience, the three major sects hold a meeting every three years in a few months before the martial arts competition.
The so-called internal competition is that the disciples of the three sects compete with each other.
Because the disciples of the same sect are too familiar with each other, and the martial arts are also in the same vein, it is easy to fall into the routine when competing with boxing, so that when it comes to the martial arts competition, they will suffer a lot.
Only by playing against unfamiliar opponents of different genres can you learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses and be eclectic.
The Naybi Society has a history of more than 100 years now, and the three major sects take turns to be the host, and this year it is the turn of the Xingyun Sect to "sit in the village", which also saves the disciples of the inner courtyard the pain of traveling.
Zhao Lin has been in the inner courtyard for a long time, and he has also heard of the origin of the three major sects of the Great Yue Dynasty.
Since ancient times, there have been nine military towns in the Central Plains, stationed on the frontiers of the empire. Since the rise of martial arts, the military town has also lost its original status, and has been abolished and merged into three major military towns, and finally evolved into the three major sects.
The Zhennan Sect is in the south, the Xingyun Sect is in the north, and the Liyang Sect is located in the western border.
The Great Yue Dynasty sent all its resources and manpower to the three major sects to cultivate martial arts talents.
This is also why Yongning City in Yanzhou is located on the frontier, but it is a large city with a large population and great prosperity.
"The people from the Liyang Sect and the Zhennan Sect have arrived yesterday, so they have arranged to live in the courtyard in the back mountain......
Yang Lin summoned the top twelve disciples of the inner courtyard to the Red Banyan Pavilion, and said with a solemn expression: "Although this internal competition is an internal competition of my Dayue Sect, the importance is not trivial!" ”
"The old man has taken over the inner courtyard for more than two years and has made a lot of changes, and I have heard a lot of opposition within the sect, saying that I have changed the old system indiscriminately and made new ones."
"Huh...... The old man didn't think so. However, there is no basis for empty words, and the specific results can be seen in this Nabi meeting. ”
"I hope you will show your strengths, use ten percent of your skills, and help the old man fight for a breath!"
The disciples sat around Yang Lin, and they all responded loudly when they heard the words.
"Don't worry, the disciple understands."
"Yes, we will do our best."
Yang Lin's gaze swept over everyone's faces, and finally stopped at Zhao Lin, and said indifferently: "Zhao Lin, your senior brothers and junior brothers here have all participated in the last Naibi meeting, and you are the only one who has experienced it, what do you want to ask?" ”
Zhao Lin thought for a moment and asked, "Courtyard leader, how many people will I participate in the martial arts competition, and how will the quota be distributed among the three major sects?" ”
Yang Lin laughed and said "Okay", "I got to the point." ”
After a little hesitation, he said: "The allocation of this quota is complicated and complicated, and it is simple and simple. ”
"In short, whichever country is stronger, the country will be able to send more people to participate in the martial arts competition."
"Specifically, it is ranked according to the overall performance of the countries in the previous three martial arts competitions, such as how many people are in the top 32? How many made it to the top 16...... And so on, the higher the ranking, the greater the weight. ”
"Finally, the rankings are added up and the places are allocated to each country in turn."
Then he sighed, "My Da Yue has not performed well in the last few editions, and the ranking has slipped to third, and now there are only thirty-two places, which is far from the top two Wushu and Weizi. ”
Zhao Lin's heart moved, thinking to himself, isn't this similar to the quota allocation in the Champions League?
The strongest leagues divide most of the places, and only one or two teams from the weaker leagues qualify.
I didn't expect the rules of the tournament to be so similar to the cup competition in the previous life.
I only heard Yang Lin continue: "The same rules, my three major sects in Dayue are divided into these thirty-two personnel. ”
"Each sect roughly accounts for ten people, but which sect has more and which sect has less depends on the results of the last martial arts competition and the results of this internal competition."
"So the Naibi meeting is also to examine the strength of the disciples of each sect, if we perform well, we may be able to fight for one or two more places, if we don't perform well, then we can only reduce the number."
"In recent years, the Liyang Sect has a slight advantage, and the last time the martial arts dynasty will divide twelve places, and there are ten people each in the Yunzong and Zhennan Sect."
Hearing this, the faces of the two disciples ranked eleventh and twelfth changed. They are on the verge of advancing and retreating, and if the results of this internal competition are good, they may be able to catch up with the competition, otherwise they can only run to watch the excitement.
Zhao Lin knew that every place was precious, and it involved which side the resources of the Great Yue Dynasty were tilted towards, and the stronger the sect, the more resources it would get.
This truth is true for the country, the sect, and the individual.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Courtyard leader, how can there be so many disciples from the three sects?" ”
Yang Lin smiled slightly, and looked at Xiao Jin, "Xiao Jin, you participated in the first two Naibi meetings, let's talk about it." ”
"Yes."
Xiao Jin replied in a deep voice, then turned his face and said to Zhao Lin: "There are two groups of internal scores, and the disciples outside the twelve of each sect draw lots to compete, aiming to increase their actual combat experience. ”
"And the top twelve disciples, the three people of the same rank fought in pairs. For example, the first place of the three sects, A, B, and C, A, B, B, B, ”
"Compared with disciples of the same level, which sect has the stronger strength."
Zhao Lin knew in his heart that he would fight against the two fifth-ranked disciples of Liyang Sect and Zhennan Sect.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Xiao, for your doubts."
Xiao Jin returned the salute: "You're welcome. ”
Yang Lin nodded, looked around at everyone, and waved his hand, "Then let's stop here today, go back and rest early." ”
