The next day, Luo Xiao went to Xiuwutang to participate in an elective class once a week.

The procedure for entering the Xiuwutang is generally as follows: in the first academic year, all the disciples gather in the various departments to take large classes and learn the basics, working from 9 to 5, and cannot be absent, let alone be late and leave early. In the second academic year, those who pass the grades will concentrate on the two departments A and B to take small classes to learn the necessary knowledge of martial artists, and they also need to report on time every day, while those who fail to pass the grades will continue to stay in the two departments of C and D to learn the basic knowledge, commonly known as "repeating grades".

In the third year, those who pass the grades will take elective courses. At this time, the disciples can freely arrange their study time, and they do not have to go to the school every day, as long as they come to the class to listen to the lectures when there are courses you have elected. Of course, it's okay if you don't come, as long as you pass the year-end assessment. If you can't pass it, you will repeat the grade, and if you can't stay for ten years, you will get out, and Xiuwutang will not bet you to learn. Anyway, your fate is your own, your fate is also your own, you are not responsible for yourself, and others will not care.

Luo Xiao is in his third year and takes at least three courses, which must include a knowledge course. The knowledge course Luo Xiao chose was "The Origin of the Domain Realm and the History of the Kingdoms". According to the regulations, you must be present one day a week for classes, and the rest of the time is self-studying, and the year-end assessment, and now the assessment is not a few months away.

The school that Luo Xiao went to was "Yunshan Hall", which belonged to the knowledge lecture hall, regardless of level, and disciples of all levels could listen to lectures here.

As soon as I entered the Yunshan Hall, the black pressure was crowded, but it was extremely quiet, and no one was noisy. The semi-military management of Xiuwutang is not in vain, it disturbs the order of the academy, and the punishment is extremely severe. And after two or three years of training, no matter how big or small the potential and strength of these disciples are, they can at least do what they are ordered and prohibited, and they are all qualified sergeants in the army. Strictly abiding by the order of the school is only the foundation of the foundation.

Luo Xiao glanced at the crowd and wanted to find a vacant seat to sit down, but caught a glimpse of three acquaintances: Duan Qinglan, Xu Yuan, and Pan Yang.

The two daughters also saw him, Xu Yuan nodded, and Duan Qinglan greeted with a smile. This kind of knowledge subject, male and female cultivators can study in the same school, and then Luo Xiao knew that the second daughter also took this course, but he didn't pay attention to it before.

As for Pan Yang, Luo Xiao had seen it a few times, but he didn't know the other party's name at the time, and Pan Yang was the same. This is not surprising, elective courses are different from martial arts courses, they get together in class, and birds and beasts scatter after class, unless the relationship is very good, under normal circumstances, even if they are at the same table, they don't know each other.

Pan Yang just glanced coldly, his eyes stayed on the yellow belt around his waist, gritted his teeth and twisted his eyebrows, obviously remembering what he said to Luo Xiao a few days ago, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face after only a few days. Pan Yang obviously couldn't swallow this breath and slowly stood up.

Luo Xiao ignored him and found an empty seat to sit down. As soon as Pan Yang wanted to come over, the figure of the lecturer appeared at the door, and Pan Yang had to sit down. Knowledge subjects are generally hired as lecturers, and those who are responsible for teaching this part are called "lecturers" to distinguish them from the "teaching" of teaching martial arts.

"Today we will review from the beginning about the origins of our realm and the history of the nations. The high-crowned belt, the voice of an elegant middle-aged lecturer sounded loudly, echoing in the sky above Yunshan Hall.

"In ancient times, there were no boundaries, but a vast and boundless continent surrounded by endless oceans. Human races, mythical beasts, and spirits inhabit mountains and seas, spread all over the continent, and reproduce and coexist. At that time, the aura of heaven and earth was strong, there were countless treasures of heaven and earth, and the cultivation exercises were exquisite, and the strong ones emerged in endlessly. The strongest man merges with the Heavenly Dao, shatters the void, soars into immortals, and achieves myths. ”

"However, 10,000 years ago, the Outer Demon Castle descended, and the demon gods of the seven troubled continents came out of it, changing the fate of the entire continent and the human race. ”

"The Seven Demon Gods are hundreds of feet tall, powerful, cold-blooded and cruel, and from the moment they descended, they transmitted divine thought sound waves to the entire continent, requiring all living beings to prostrate and enslave them. This move naturally aroused the anger of the powerful people of all ethnic groups on the mainland, and when they were about to unite to eliminate demons, disaster struck. ”

"The Seven Demon Gods took the lead in attacking, targeting the mountain spirits and wild monsters on the mainland, countless powerful spirits, and they were defeated by the Demon God. In a very short period of time, it swept through the eighteen spirit ancient tribes on the continent and completely destroyed them. The leader of the demon god uses demonic magic to combine the captured spirits with the human body to create the demon race, and then fuses the spirit of the spirit with the undead of the human race to create the ghost race. These two puppet races are used as accomplices to poison the world. ”

"The demon clan usually manifests itself as a human being, and only when it attacks or is killed, it turns into a monster beast, which is fierce and powerful. The ghost clan is a ghost body, and it uses its spirit to capture people's souls, specifically harm people's souls, make people lose their minds, and it is terrifying. These two demonic servant races have completely changed the situation on the continent. Because the leader of the demon god created two major puppet races, he was called the 'demon lord', and the other six demon gods were called 'demon gods' because of their invincible divine power. ”

"The Seven Demon Gods led the two races of ghosts and demons to fight against the human race and the divine beasts. Although the human race does not have the strongest people, it is better than the many Dingkou, and the number of cultivators is huge. Although there are very few divine beasts in the world, each of them is a powerful existence that can fight against the demon god. This war of annihilation lasted for a hundred years, and in the end dozens of powerful divine beasts were slaughtered, there was not one strong human being, and the human race suffered heavy casualties, while the two clans of ghosts and demons fought more and more - demons are bloodthirsty, ghosts gather grudges, where there is the most blood and death, where is the carnival of demons and ghosts. The ghosts and demons take the human race as their blood food, and regard me as a 'two-legged animal', under the elimination of the other, the human race is getting fewer and fewer, and the ghosts and demons are more and more, and in just a hundred years, the human race is gone, and it is almost extinct......"

Speaking of this, the lecturer's voice became lower and lower, full of compassion, as if he sighed for the tragic suffering of his ancestors, and then his tone turned to passion: "Fortunately, the heavens are endless, my human race is born, and the emperor is born, cutting his karma, giving up his ascension, and his blood is recommended to the sky, attracting the ten immortals of my human race to ascend to the heavenly realm to help fight with immortal weapons in the lower realm, and kill the devil and demon in one fell swoop, and the human race will rise and dominate the four regions and eight directions...... This great battle involving the heavenly realm, the human realm, and the demon realm was later called the 'Three Realms War'. ”

The lecturer was gushing on the stage, and the disciples below were not impressed, and secretly muttered: "I'm telling myths and stories again." ”

What 10,000 years ago, what demons, demons, ghosts, what ascended immortals...... Wait, in the eyes of the disciples of Xiuwutang, they are all myths, because no one has ever seen ghosts and demons, let alone immortals, as for ten thousand years ago...... The earliest historical records of national history are less than 5,000 years ago! 10,000 years ago, there were only legends, which were legends, and could only be heard as myths.

The lecturer obviously saw that kind of disappointment in the eyes of the disciples, and raised his hand and knocked heavily on the handout: "You'd better remember for me, the key points here are marked, and the year-end assessment must be taken!"

All the disciples turned dark, and then their expressions became much more serious.

The lecturer nodded in satisfaction, and his clear voice continued to echo above the lecture hall: "The Four Domains, the Extreme Domain, the Upper Domain, the Middle Domain, the Lower Domain, and the Feather Domain, which is not included. The formation of these five domains is closely related to the Great War of the Three Realms. Legend has it that the ten immortals each sacrificed immortal weapons, five defensive immortal weapons to protect the human race, and five offensive immortal weapons destroyed the magic castle made of alien metal that even the divine beast true dragon could not break with a shocking blow, severely damaged the demon lord, made him fall into eternal sleep, and killed the five demon gods, and killed the seventh demon god with half a life, making it difficult to recover his strength. The aftermath of the immortal divine power annihilated countless armies of ghosts and demons, saving hundreds of millions of human beings. The remnants of the demon clan may escape into the jungle or the deep sea, and the seventh demon god and the remnant demon clan will protect the demon lord of eternal sleep and escape into the underworld...... This blow, while destroying the demons, the supreme divine power of the five immortal weapons also bombarded the continent to pieces, forming many land fragments, which is the origin of the various realms of the human race today. ”

"The area directly bombarded by the five immortal weapons is the most broken, the environment is harsh, and the living beings are extinct, which is called the feather domain; the area closest to the center of destruction, which is seriously broken, is all over the desert, and the aura is poor, and it is the lower domain; the area that is less affected by the destruction radiation in the outer circle, the mountains and rivers are still there, and the aura still exists, and it is the middle domain; the area that is almost unaffected in the outer circle is rich in spiritual energy, and it is the most livable, and it is the upper domain; and there is only one place in the polar region, and that is the imperial city where the ancestor of the human race, the human emperor, is located......

When the lecturer talked about the various realms, all the disciples in the hall showed fascination, because the realm they were in was "the 'lower domain' closest to the center of destruction, severely broken, full of deserts, and poor in spiritual energy." Whether it is the Middle Domain, the Upper Domain, or the Extreme Domain, they are all the holy places of martial arts that they dream of.

"The five great immortals sacrificed immortal weapons to first break the demon castle, then shatter the continent, and then destroy thousands of demons and ghosts, and the immortal weapons were almost destroyed. The immortal returned to the heavenly realm with one blow, and before he could recover it, he was lost in all domains of the human realm. Judging from the area of immortal weapon bombardment, the most likely place to be lost is the feather domain and the lower domain. Legend has it that in this lower region where we are, a supreme immortal weapon 'Soul Suppression Treasure Mirror' has fallen, which is the origin of our lower domain being called 'Heavenly Mirror Domain'......"

The disciples still listen to this as a myth, because for thousands of years, countless powerhouses in the major realms have been frantically looking for this legendary "Soul Suppression Treasure Mirror", but they have never found any traces, and legends are legends after all.

Luo Xiao had a funny guess, this day the mirror domain may have been a guy who flew with the fragments of the continent ten thousand years ago, and he didn't die, and when he saw a shiny fragment of the magic castle falling, it was regarded as the fall of the treasure mirror, and he was not known to be famous.

After the lecturer finished talking about the origin of the domain realm, he changed his words and began to talk about the history of the kingdoms: "After the Great War of the Three Realms, the continent was broken into thirteen domain boundaries, each of which was separated by a vast ocean. Therefore, the emperor divided the world, according to the size of the meritorious service to fight against demons, the five dukes, seven marquis, nine uncles, thirteen sons, the princes and uncles built the country to defend the human race, multiplied for thousands of years, this is the orthodox thirty-four ancient kingdoms of the human race. The three kingdoms of the 'Sun, Moon and Star' of my Heavenly Mirror Domain, the Star Sea Country, the Moon Chasing Country, and our Wuyang Country, are the three major sub-kingdoms of the Thirty-Four Ancient Kingdoms......"

There is a disciple below who is full of worship and says: "The emperor of people, I don't know if I can see the face of heaven in this life......"

Someone next to him sneered: "You still want to see the human emperor, we are in the lower domain, and if you can enter the middle domain in this life, your ancestors will burn high incense." ”

"Don't underestimate people, I'm also a yellow belt, and I will definitely be able to become a samurai in ten years and participate in the selection to enter the ...... of the Middle Domain"

At this time, a disciple below raised his hand, and the lecturer's voice paused, and he raised his hand to point to a certain position: "This female cultivator, what's the problem?"

Luo Xiao looked at it, but it was Duan Qinglan, this thin girl stood up and bowed first, and asked a little shyly: "Lord Lecturer, what the students want to ask is that there are not only three kingdoms in the Tianjing Domain, such as the Aoki Kingdom in the southwest, the Bare Arm Country in the Northeast Red Stone Mountain Range, the Tianli Kingdom in the southern jungle, and the Nine Alliances of the Northwest Tule people, etc., what do these countries do?"

The lecturer approvingly: "That's a good question, please sit down, and now I'll tell you the answer - these countries, whether they are alliances or alliances, they don't belong to the Thirty-Four Ancient Kingdoms, we call them 'Fang Kingdoms'." These Fang kingdoms were all built by some ancient and powerful clans or emerging tribes that had not been feuded, and were not included in the inheritance and protection of the sect kingdoms. In other words, the rise and fall of these Fang countries are conceited and left to fend for themselves, and the Extreme Imperial City is ignored. And if there is a crisis in our thirty-four ancient countries, the Shangmen Sect will definitely intervene, and even if the country is destroyed, it will send a strong army to restore the country. According to historical records, in the past 10,000 years since the division of the human emperor, the Hou State has broken the country twice, the Bo State has been destroyed seven times, and the Zi Kingdom has been destroyed ten times, and finally all of them have been restored with the support of the Shangyu Sect. And the Fang Kingdom was destroyed by hundreds of people, only three cases succeeded in recovering the country on their own, and the rest of the hundred countries all disappeared in the long river of history - this is the difference between the ancient country and the Fang country!"

At the end of the lecturer's speech, the pride was overflowing, and the young faces of the disciples in the hall also seemed to be glowing, and they were proud to be a member of the ancient country.
