Ziwu girl's words quickly sparked a heated discussion among the onlookers.

Because that's an interesting question.

As an ancient monk, Wang Luo is really not an ancient monk!

And to accurately explain this sentence, we must first understand what an ancient monk is, or what is the stereotype of an ancient monk.

There are thousands of differences in the cultivation of the Immortal Dao before and after the Heavenly Tribulation, and in a word, it is the difference between attaching importance to the early stage and attaching importance to the later stage.

For the ancient monks, the purpose of all cultivation is theoretically for the ascension of the later stage, as long as they can reach the gate of ascension closer, it is a matter of course to endure more hardships and fatigue in the early stage. Many famous and decent families cultivated Dao species, and even tolerantly allowed them to wander for a hundred years in the stage of qi induction and foundation building. Anyway, as long as the realm after Jin Dan can be smooth sailing, this kind of cultivation will not be a loss.

On the other hand, no matter how fast the early stage of cultivation is—three years to build a foundation and five years to condense the pill, if you get stuck at a bottleneck immediately after that, it will outweigh the losses.

In this kind of old-world environment, at least the ancient monks who followed the orthodox immortal path did not attach much importance to the progress of their cultivation in the early stage. The speed of progress is more to show talent and has no practical meaning.

And Wang Luo, as the master of Lingshan Mountain, is himself an integral part of the orthodoxy of the old world, plus he was cultivated as a closed disciple by the previous mountain master Song Yijing, and his identity has been determined, so there is no need to show his talent at all, and there is no reason to rush in the early stage.

However, Wang Luo's cultivation progress is still as fast as that of modern people, and he stood in front of the level of Ning Dan in his early twenties, which is shocking to the ancient monks.

In addition, the strength he displayed under the foundation building realm was too unconventional - with an out-and-out foundation building realm, he could compete with the Jindan-level Huanglong general, and I am afraid that there would be no second person in the world who could do it.

However, this is not reasonable.

Because theoretically speaking, the combat power of the cultivators of later generations in the same realm should be superior to that of their ancestors!

Of course, it is undeniable that compared with those cultivators of the classical era who lived in the environment of the jungle, the life of modern people is too delicate and comfortable, and most of them can't even breathe on their own, let alone have any actual combat experience at all. Compared with those ancestors who fought in the sea of corpses and blood, it was like a delicately castrated domestic animal.

However, this contrast is limited to the general population, accounting for the vast majority of the population.

And this part of the people, before the Heavenly Tribulation, in that era when the Immortal Dao was not really popular, were called mortals. In the eyes of cultivators who fly away from the sky, they are like ants. There is no qualification to compare it at all.

In fact, excluding this unfair comparison, there is no reason for the cultivators of the New Immortal Calendar Era to lose to their ancestors in the same realm.

After all, the long immortal path that reached the ascension was directly cut in half by the Great Law. Not to mention the Mahayana ascension, even the Yuan Ying has to be approved by the Immortal League, and most people can only polish a golden pill in their abdomen in their lifetime...... In this context, the research effort and material resources spent by human beings in each of the existing realms are far from comparable to those of the old world. Qi induction, foundation building, and golden pill, almost all the tricks in these three realms have been studied by today's people.

For true professionals, absorbing the nutrients of the new era can completely sublimate themselves into a completely different species.

Among those soldiers who have been stationed on the front line of the desert all year round, there has never been a shortage of masters who have crossed the level and challenged like eating and drinking soup. Beating Jin Dan with Zhuji and beating Yuan Ying with Jin Dan is never uncommon in the army.

As for the actual combat experience...... In fact, it is also the people of today who have the advantage, because even in the turbulent era of the old immortal calendar, there is no endless desolate demons in half of Kyushu that can be killed at will. Perhaps some old demons who have practiced for hundreds of years can rely on the accumulation of one evil in a day to outperform the present people. But it can be accumulated for hundreds of years, and that is not something that just Jindan and Yuanying can do.

Therefore, in the same realm, it was absolutely impossible for the ancient monks to have any advantage compared to these true combat experts.

This has even been confirmed in the research and simulation of many military history experts. Someone has already collected the information of the old world, and created a puppet with similar combat effectiveness to the practitioners of the old world by means of heavenly ingenuity and ingenuity, and put it into the arena for actual combat simulation. And most of the results of actual combat are professional and elite soldiers to achieve a complete victory.

However, at this moment, a group of envoys witnessed with their own eyes that Huang Long, who symbolized the pinnacle of professionalism, with the strength advantage of a realm, could not take down an ancient monk who had only practiced for twenty years!

And with the sound of thunderous collisions in the arena, the sound of collision was endless, and the discussion outside the arena became more and more enthusiastic.

The female envoy from Zhou Guo enthusiastically promoted her hypothesis: "So, instead of treating him as an ancient monk who has come back from the dead, it is better to assume that he is the secret weapon that Zhu Wang has been developing for many years!" There are such settings in many mirage stories! Superpowers, heart-wrenching human experiments, and then the superheroes who came out of nowhere! What do you think of the nickname Lingshan Xia? ”

Ziwu's Duan Yong smiled and nodded: "As a propaganda slogan, it is very good, compared to the setting of the ancient monk resurrecting from the dead, the humanoid weapon secretly created by the superpower Zhu Wang may be more acceptable to the people of the hundred countries." Lingshan Xia's idea is also very good, you Zhou Guoren's thoughts on these mirage scrolls are indeed ......."

"Haha, I know that Brother Duan, you understand! So how do you think the heroine should be designed? This kind of superhero definitely has to have a companion, and people love this one the most! Considering that he is about to become a pioneer and become the center of attention, I think we should put more advanced cultural symbols on him to unite multiple identities, for example, we can assume that his partner is a male with gender cognitive impairment......"

Duan Yong's smile suddenly stiffened, and then he glanced angrily at the girl with wheat-colored skin beside him, blaming her for giving Zhou Guoren such an unscrupulous head!

But apart from Zhou Guoren's whims, people have to admit that the hypothesis of the secret weapon seems to be really reasonable!

A young man whose cultivation progress is extremely fast and whose combat effectiveness in the same realm is extremely high is really suitable for playing this role!

It's just that without waiting for people to discuss it in depth, the short and long battle in the arena has come to an end.

After an unprecedented violent collision, Wang Luo and Huang Long separated again, each retreating. I saw that Wang Luo was already covered with a faint layer of blood mist around his body—it was blood and sweat that seeped out of his pores and was steamed up by the high temperature.

On the other side, Huang Long's body had more than doubled compared to the initial battle, his body was nearly four meters long, and his skin armor was stretched to the point that he was constantly moaning almost torn, and every swollen muscle, every stretched vein, was hot like fire at this moment!

Even if he used the power of the Jindan level and exerted it to the extreme, Huang Long still couldn't defeat his opponent in the arena!

So......

"Worthy of admiration, boy, I'm afraid I will never forget you for the rest of my life."

With a smile of joy and excitement, Huang Long decided to untie the last shackles.

Then, the leather armor on his body suddenly bloomed with an unprecedented violent lightning, making his eyes roll white, and then he collapsed.

The scar-faced General Bu, in the midst of everyone's dumbfounding, slowly walked into the arena, holding a thunderous pointer in his hand, condescendingly looked at General Huanglong, who was constantly twitching on the ground, and cast a resentful gaze at him, and spoke.

"General Huang, on the orders of your granddaughter, if you dare to disobey the doctor's instructions and use the power of Yuan Ying at will during your foreign visit, I have the obligation to stop it by any means."
