Chapter 288: How to Solve the Problem of Public Opinion Caused by Showing Off Wealth
Faced with the conclusion that Bai Xiao had pondered and meditated, Zheng Liming fell into a long silence.
As a demon master, his rationality told him that Bai Xiao's conclusion was very correct...... In today's highly developed demon civilization, as long as you are willing to throw money and scatter enough money, you can get almost any kind of god costume.
And as long as you have good enough equipment, the defects of martial arts can naturally be made up.
Back then, those martial arts masters were able to face the disadvantage of comprehensive combat power, and played many wonderful counterattacks, and even once gave people the illusion that they could turn the tables, relying on the word equipment.
Among those ancient fragments, Zheng Liming saw with his own eyes that the warriors who turned the tide relied not on ingenuity in skills, let alone perseverance and spirit, but on equipment.
The original warriors did not disdain to use external objects, and martial arts tempering was more about strengthening the body and mind, and most of the leaders in martial arts civilization were bare-handed people.
However, under the sweep of the Flame King's army, the martial arts masters have fallen one after another, and civilization has come to a critical juncture of life and death. It was also at this time that the warriors realized that their stubbornness would only bring destruction. They did their best to create a batch of divine weapons for the remaining martial arts masters, some of which contained elemental power, some blessed with the power of the people, and some contained thaumaturgical drive...... Relying on these various weapons, the warriors had the capital to fight. However, in the end, the general trend of civilization is difficult to disobey, and the desperate counterattack of the warriors quickly dissipates under the tide of the times after the weapons are exhausted.
After learning about that period of history, Zheng Liming had a faint idea, if those warriors at that time could abandon their senseless reserve earlier and update their equipment as soon as possible, then the subsequent historical trend is still unknown. Maybe there will be no more flame dynasty in the human race, let alone a follow-up thunder dynasty, and when facing the demons, there will be different performances.
Compared with that embarrassing history, Bai Xiao's quick reaction is even more amazing.
It had only been a few minutes, and he had already thought through everything and had come to the most correct conclusion.
This kid's muscles are simply confused, and his mind is far smarter than people think!
But on the other hand, building an equipping advantage is certainly the right answer, but the right answer is not the right one a lot of the time.
Equipment, at Red Hill Academy, is a rather sensitive topic.
Because this is the most naked way to enhance the strength of foreign objects, and it is also the most complete murder weapon to tear the veil of "fair competition".
It is true that in today's human civilized society, life is not equal, and rich and poor backgrounds face completely different lives...... But at least the academy is a paradise.
Although students will face various inequalities due to wealth disparities and disparities in origin, such as inequality in food and accommodation...... However, in the academy environment, this injustice has been minimized as much as possible.
At least the students' grades are relatively equal.
The basic education provided by Hongshan Academy is already hard to find for many people outside the academy - otherwise, there is no need for those demonic giants to do everything possible to send the elite of the family to the academy for further study.
In addition, for students from poor families with excellent grades, the college will give very sufficient scholarships to ensure their normal studies, and the amount is so large that many teachers even covet it. So unless it's like the original poem, it is an instinct to open up the brain and fill in the brain hole with a huge scholarship every year, otherwise most students will not lag behind the rich children too much in their grades because of the difference in wealth.
However, the financial resources of Hongshan College are also limited, especially since the current dean Zhu Junshen has participated in many important business projects since taking over, the financial situation of the college has become more and more stretched. Therefore, it is impossible for the college to achieve financial equality for all students, and in many cases, it is impossible to exclude the advantages of rich children.
Among them, magic tools are a very important part.
For example, Lu Xun and other proud sons of the sky, from birth, there will be clever magicians to tailor all kinds of magic tools for them, from daily life to learning and practicing, the assistance of external objects is everywhere, and even in the test can play an important role in helping.
Naturally, civilians do not have such convenience.
Although the college will also provide some magic equipment rental services, and even if students pass some assessments, they can be customized for free...... But compared to the luxury goods carefully created by the rich and noble, the magic tools that ordinary students can use are naturally limited.
Most of the tests in Hongshan Academy have tried their best to avoid the auxiliary role of magic tools, focusing on assessing the quality of the students themselves, but magic tools are an inseparable part of the magic Taoist after all, many people have been closely accompanied by magic tools since birth, and losing their usual magic tools is equivalent to cutting off one of their arms, if you must forcibly exclude the magic tools, it is a kind of unfairness.
Therefore, the role of magic tools in helping students has become a very sensitive topic.
This is especially true in adversarial tests, where two students of similar strength are separated by a difference in equipment, which will become a topic of great debate among students.
In the previous mid-year test, Lu Xun once wore a god costume and launched a super demon body to fight Bai Xiao, but in fact, he had already stepped into a sensitive area...... But after all, Bai Xiao already had a faint overlord posture at that time, and no one thought that the contest between Lu Xun and Bai Xiao was a fair contest, so it was only natural for Lu Xun to take advantage of the equipment, not to mention that he didn't win in the end, and was even shot on the head by Bai Xiao directly with the Forbidden Demon Stone...... The superiority of equipment was not controversial.
But this time Bai Xiao had to face a different situation.
This is a very direct confrontation, Bai Xiao fought against everyone in the same grade with his own strength, and the opposing team obviously raised the sense of victory and defeat. At this time, Bai Xiao crushed his classmates with his equipment advantage, which could easily cause huge controversy.
Although Bai Xiao's huge wealth has long been known, when he throws money, whether he smashes it on himself or not is a completely different experience. Students can enjoy seeing Bai Xiao show off his wealth, but it is absolutely impossible to see Bai Xiao in the examination room with a full body of gods!
"So, how are you going to solve this problem?" Zheng Liming said, "Of course, you can ignore it, but ......"
Without waiting for Zheng Liming to finish speaking, Bai Xiao hurriedly replied: "This problem is easy to solve, after the game is over, one person can send a magic tool." ”
Zheng Liming opened his mouth, but he couldn't say half a word.
Bai Xiao said: "In the Southern Continent, if you can't solve the problem by throwing money, you will scatter more money. ”
