Volume 1 The Elephant of Heaven and Earth Chapter 55 The Ins and Outs
The speed of this spirit beast car was extremely fast, and there was no obstacle to walking on the ground, and it only took a quarter of an hour to reach the location. Liang Cheng and Yu Zishan got out of the car, and as soon as they closed the car door, the cat demon pulled the empty car and fled underground, thinking that he had returned to the nearest post station to standby.
The two turned around, and what appeared in front of them was a courtyard, the tall main gate was on top of more than a dozen bluestone steps, in Liang Cheng's eyes, it was still quite magnificent, it was by no means a small residence in Yuzi Pass, and it was possible to have such a place in the national capital, which showed that Yu's family was still quite powerful.
"Brother Liang, please!" Yu Zishan led Liang Cheng up the steps when he saw the black door with copper nails slowly open, and five or six people came out of it, all of whom were subordinates in the house.
The leader is a middle-aged man who looks like a housekeeper, with a medium stature, a very thin physique, and his cultivation is also in the early stage of foundation building. I saw him smiling with a smile on his face, leading the servants behind him, and bowing to Yu Zishan: "Welcome to the third young master." ”
"Steward Wang doesn't have to be polite. Yu Zishan nodded and said, "This is my friend Brother Liang, and he is a distinguished guest I invited, don't slack off!" ”
"Don't dare, I've seen Mr. Liang, if there is anything in the future, just ask. ”
After Liang Cheng said a few words of humility, he followed Yu Zishan into the hall of Fuzhong, sat down with the guests and hosts, and served fragrant tea. Liang Cheng took a sip of tea, looked around at the layout of the hall, and saw calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, although there are not many furnishings everywhere, but they are very exquisite, and they are very simple and elegant.
"Brother Liang, I don't know which academy you want to enter?
"Zishan, I can't hide it, in fact, I just came to this capital to open my eyes and experience it. I didn't know about the recruitment of the major colleges before, so I didn't have any plans. Actually, I don't know anything about Kyoto, can Zishan help me with any questions?"
An expression of "sure enough" appeared on Yu Zishan's face. Seeing Liang Cheng asking, he was in the middle of it, and the habit of chattering suddenly attacked, so he answered all questions and introduced Liang Cheng endlessly.
Liang Cheng knocked on the side, asked all the questions he was interested in, and compared with the original situation in Huangliangou, he could be regarded as clarifying the ins and outs of this country. It turns out that this Great Xuan Kingdom has a long history and has been inherited for tens of thousands of years. The royal family is surnamed Huyan, which is the largest and strongest family in the Great Xuan Kingdom, and the current monarch Hu Yanliang is said to have cultivated to the realm of perfection, and the depth of the realm is unimaginable for rookies such as Liang Cheng during the foundation building period.
The royal family lineage and various branches have many kings who are divided into kings, and they are stationed all over the country to be in charge of government affairs, so the Huyan family is the most important ruler of the Great Xuan Kingdom.
However, unlike the situation in the Yan Fu Realm, the royal family cannot cover the state politics with one hand, and the Great Xuan Kingdom has two major forces in addition to the royal family, namely the military and the cultivator alliance. The three parties restrain and complement each other, so that the power center of the Great Xuan Kingdom has reached a state of balance, which is also the fundamental reason for the long-term stability of the Great Xuan Kingdom. The military is a cadre of generals headed by Generalissimo Du Xinquan and controls the military affairs of the whole country. The leader of the Cultivator Alliance was the rumored number one powerhouse in the empire, and was named the "Ten Thousand Saints National Teacher".
This Source Light Venerable is extremely mysterious, except for the upper echelons of the empire, almost no one has seen him, and even his real name is unknown. However, Yuan Guangzun enjoys a very high reputation in the Great Xuan Kingdom, and is a god-like existence in the eyes of the people.
The alliance led by Yuan Guangzun is in charge of all the affairs of the Great Xuan Kingdom regarding cultivation, and has great power in the division of resources, the division of the spheres of influence of each family, and the cultivation of newcomers. The alliance has cultivated countless talents over the years through its five affiliated academies, providing a steady stream of fresh blood to the empire.
Judging from the fact that many of the imperial royal family and military high-ranking people come from the five major academies, the status of the alliance is also irreplaceable in the Great Xuan Kingdom.
Yu Zishan said after introducing the situation of Da Xuanguo clearly: "Brother Liang, it's not that the junior brother is offended, the Huangliangou you are from is too inconspicuous, and it is inevitable that you will be despised in this capital, if you don't dislike it, you can use the identity of the junior brother's family." Hidden Dragon City is at home, although it is not a big force, but it also has a slight foundation, so it is more convenient to walk. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and handed over an identity jade plate.
Liang Cheng thought about it and felt good, he needed such an identity very much at present, so he reached out and took it after thanking him. In this way, Liang Cheng can be regarded as having an official identity, and the Hidden Dragon City is indeed much more powerful than the Huangliangou Orion.
"Brother Liang, junior brother will tell you about the situation of this academy, and you can see what you plan. Speaking of the situation of the academy, Yu Zishan said: "First of all, you don't have to think about this Imperial Courtyard. It is for the royal family, not to mention that outsiders are not accepted, even if you are accepted as an exception, without the royal bloodline, the academy's martial arts and combat skills cannot be cultivated at all. ”
"The second Wude Academy is also very difficult, although the resources of the Wude Academy are abundant, second only to the Huangji Academy, but the requirements for beginner students are too high, requiring qualifications above the double spirit root, or having a rare alien spirit root, after all, most of the disciples from the Wude Academy will join the military in the future, and it is normal for the requirements to be higher. However, in the future, when he goes to the battlefield, although he has the advantage of being rewarded for meritorious service and being promoted quickly, the danger of death is even greater. Little brother, I think Wudeyuan is still not a good choice. ”
Speaking of this, Yu Zishan said quite smugly: "The junior brother has the three spirit roots of wood, water and wind, and the qualifications with the spirit roots are also quite good, what is the situation of Brother Liang's spirit roots?"
Liang Cheng smiled and didn't answer, but when he heard the introduction of the Wude Academy, his heart moved, thinking that there was naturally no problem in entering the Wude Academy with his Tianlinggen qualifications, and he was also a general, so he had a natural affinity for the military. As for the battlefield killing, although he has not experienced it, he is not too strange under the influence of his father since he was a child.
Yu Zishan didn't pay attention to Liang Cheng's thoughts about this Martial Arts Academy, seeing that Liang Cheng's expression was relaxed, and he didn't have an inferiority complex, he naturally felt that Liang Cheng's qualifications should be similar to his own, so he didn't care, and still gushed about it: "What about the remaining three academies, they are called Tiangang Academy, Earth Spirit Academy, and Renhe Academy. Aside from the Earth Spirit Academy, the rest is the academy we are looking for......"
Liang Cheng listened to Yu Zishan's introduction with relish, and had a general understanding of the situation of the college, no longer his eyes were black, he was very satisfied, and he felt more and more pleasing to the eye when he saw Yu Zishan. After listening for a while, I also figured out Yu Zishan's ambition.
It turns out that Tiangang Courtyard is the place that Yu Zishan yearns for very much, not only the exercises are orthodox, but also gradual and not easy to go crazy. The major skills of the college include divination, puppetry, formation, talisman making, etc. Yu Zishan has been very lazy in practicing family exercises since he was a child, and his careless attitude often provokes his father's anger, but he is extremely interested in divination, and he also has a certain talent.
He was obsessed with divination and put a lot of effort into it. There are some instinctive feelings about things like good luck and avoiding evil.,Weekdays pay attention to staying and doing things spontaneously.。 The same is true for people, avoid those who are not pleasing to the eye, and those who are pleasing to the eye will have blue eyes, regardless of whether the other party is from a humble background or not.
This time I met Liang Cheng at the gate of the city, Yu Zishan felt that it was particularly pleasing to the eye, and there was a faint feeling that he hated seeing each other late and had to follow, so he was extremely enthusiastic, and I have to say that Yu Zishan's feeling was still very reasonable.
As for the Earth Spirit Academy, Yu Zishan didn't like it very much, and directly excluded it from the alternative academy. The reason is that the exercises of the Earth Spirit Academy are extremely weird, and it can even be said that most of them are demonic exercises. The skills cultivated are all alchemy, insect repellent techniques, witchcraft techniques, curse techniques, and other terrifying side ways. Therefore, many disciples have also cultivated to look like they are ghostly, and they are not close to people.
Liang Cheng was also surprised when he heard about the situation in the Earth Spirit Courtyard. I thought that the spiritual world was different, it was really open, and the magic of the magic path could also enter the hall and become the support of the empire. I can't help but admire this eclectic way of thinking. Indeed, when there is a war in the country, the demons often play a huge role because of their strong combat power.
In fact, in the wars in the history of the Great Xuan Kingdom, there were indeed cases where demonic people turned the tide and turned the empire into safety. There are rumors in the Earth Spirit Academy that the Ten Thousand Saints National Master Yuan Guangzun was born in the Demon Dao, and he saved the empire by himself.
This kind of rumor was scoffed at in Tiangang Academy, but the legend of Tiangang Yuan is that Yuan Guangzun is a righteous person, who was originally born in Tiangang Academy, and is the most upright and upright.
The two academies have quarreled over this matter for an unknown number of years, and they both reprimanded each other for being ridiculous. The strange thing is that Yuan Guangzun himself is noncommittal on this matter, and has never clarified, no matter how the world comments, I will not move. In this way, there are more and more mysterious legends about the source light honor, and it also adds more luster to this mysterious alliance leader.
The situation of the Renhe Academy is quite simple, in addition to the cultivation of martial arts and combat skills, the cultivation of skills is the cultivation of elixir, alchemy, healing, these skills that cultivators like to see, and a large number of elixir planters and alchemists have been cultivated for the empire, steadily occupying the first place in the list of the most popular colleges. Therefore, the status of the Renhe and the Yuan in the Daxuan country is transcendent, and the relationship with all parties is very good except for the Diling Academy. As for the discordant relationship between the Renyuan and the Diling Academy, it is rumored to be related to their respective owners, and the specific situation is not very clear to Yu Zishan.
"So the Imperial Pole Academy and the Wude Academy don't practice other skills?" Liang Cheng asked.
It is precisely in this way that the college is divided into two upper and lower three colleges. Because the upper two courtyards of the Imperial Pole Academy and the Wude Academy do not practice miscellaneous arts, the cultivation speed has always been much faster than that of the lower three courtyards. But the younger brother thinks that more art is not pressing, and learning more skills will definitely be beneficial in the future. ”
Liang Cheng was a little hesitant after listening to Yu Zishan's introduction. On the one hand, I feel that the Wude Academy is very suitable for me, but unfortunately this Wude Academy does not practice miscellaneous arts, which is a little inappropriate, I am very interested in the formation and talisman making skills of the Tiangang Academy, and the elixir cultivation and alchemy of the Renhe Academy are also in line with the direction of their own cultivation, only the weird Earth Spirit Academy, Liang Cheng is also relatively resistant, and he can not think about it, so he felt difficult to choose between the Tiangang Academy and the Renhe Yuan for a while.
"Well, tomorrow is the registration day for the primary election, and we will go directly to the academy to see how it goes. Brother Liang, the previous college recruitment has a large number of responders, and the competition is fierce, so the selection is very strict, although it is not surprising that it will be selected, but it is still past the first hurdle first. So don't think too much about it now, just improvise when the time comes. ”
Liang Cheng thought so, so he talked casually for a while, went to rest, and made an appointment to go to the college early tomorrow morning to sign up.
