Chapter 26: The Paradise Before the Storm (3)
When Hui Jiaoxi came, the entire lecture hall became silent.
Hui Camel, who walked up to the podium, looked around at the immature faces of dozens of soul domain students in the lecture hall, and still had a faint smile on his face.
He said aloud: "I'm late for today's class, I'm sorry! Because the tribe urgently convened a temporary elders' meeting! You will soon know the content of this temporary meeting, and the tribe has arranged to notify every warrior, whether it is serving in the legion or you who are serving as a reserve in the Soul Domain Academy, you all need to know: The Red Pupil Tiger Luo Longtao tribe in the north has officially started a war against the soul of Zhen, Canghaixiao, and Helan Mountain! And we, Canghaixiao and Helan Mountain have already made an alliance intention through the Blue Bird Legend, and choose an auspicious day to hold a blood alliance ceremony! ”
The camel speaks clearly and speaks with a sense of rhythm. He is very knowledgeable, and his lectures are lively and interesting.
Usually, as long as the camel stands on the podium and opens its mouth, the audience is very quiet, because the students are fascinated by it.
But as soon as he finished speaking today, the lecture hall exploded instantly, and there was an exclamation everywhere:
"What? There's going to be a war?"
"The Tiger Luo Longtao Tribe? Where is the sacred? Actually declared war on the three major tribes at once?"
"You don't even know about Tiger Luo and Long Tao, and you are lonely and unheard! The tribe built by the Tenth-level Martial Artist Ultraman Tiger!"
"Ahh......h
"Oh my God! Ultraman Tiger! Rank 10 Martial Artist!"
"Phew, war maniac!"
"Ahaha, I'm going to fight......!
"Cut, what's the good thing about fighting......!
"It's good to fight, if you don't fight, you're too lazy to grow worms......"
"Stupid, fighting will kill people! Do you think it's a playhouse?"
......
After Hui Camel's opening remarks, he had been quietly listening to the discussion of the sentient beings, and did not continue to speak, he wanted to give the dozens of young people in the audience enough time to digest this amazing news.
On the surface, he looked calm and calm, but he didn't reveal the worries in his heart.
When the deputy leader Durian confirmed the news at the temporary elders' meeting, the performance of the elders was not much calmer than that of these young students in front of them, the same shock and disbelief, and even panic! Because among the news that the elders learned at the same time, there were also the defeat of the three tribes of Zhen Soul, Canghai Xiao, and Helan Mountain in the local war with Huluo Longtao, and in less than half a month, the three major tribes fell dozens of middle-level martial artists at once.
Hu Luo Long Tao only merged the Hao tribe, and his strength should not have grown as strong! Is it really like the analysis of some elders in the Council of Elders just now, were the three major tribes taken by surprise? Hui Camel is not optimistic!
The temporary elders' meeting just now was mainly to discuss the proposal to form an alliance with Canghaixiao and the Helan Mountain tribe, and the voting result was unanimously approved, which was a rational choice! However, during the entire discussion, the performance of some elders made the heart of the Hui camel sink suddenly.
Blind optimism and timidity, these are two diametrically opposed emotions, and they both appeared in the temporary presbytery that lasted for a short time.
thinks that Huluo Longtao is just a paper tiger, and the early defeat of the three major tribes is just because of insufficient attention. This view occupies a significant proportion of the presbytery as a whole.
There are also a number of people who are afraid to go to war with Tiger and Longtao, but the reason for the cowardice is easy to understand. Everyone actually knew very well that the main reason why the Soul Suppression Tribe was able to dominate the otherworldly continent was because it once had two rank 10 peerless martial artists: Cao Yanbin and Xuantian.
The role played by a tenth-level peerless martial artist in the war is by no means imaginable to ordinary people.
The Council of Elders of the Soul Suppression Tribe is composed of ninth-level martial artists.
The ninth-level martial artists in the otherworldly continent have all experienced bloody storms, and there are very few ninth-level martial artists who rely on their own talents to advance to the ninth level in peacetime.
In the Soul Suppression Tribe, once you become a ninth-level martial artist, you automatically become a member of the Council of Elders, and you can enjoy privileges that surpass those of other martial artists, while also taking on more responsibilities to guide the tribe in the direction of progress. The Elder Council of the Soul Suppression Tribe has always had three empty positions, two of which are Cao Yanbin and Xuantian, the founders of the Soul Suppression Tribe, and the other is reserved for Feidu, the first dean of the Soul Domain Academy.
The other elders have equal responsibilities and rights, and when it comes to voting on major matters that determine the direction of the tribe, they adopt the voting system, following the principle that the minority obeys the majority.
Standing tall naturally sees far, every ninth-level martial artist who becomes a member of the Council of Elders is a hero in the world, and his views and insights on the direction of the situation are far deeper than those of other middle and low-level martial artists, and they all have their own unique news channels.
Hui Camel is no exception, he has analyzed the news from the correspondence between friends and friends with other tribes in the past year, as well as the news summarized from various channels recently, and has his own judgment on the situation: Tiger Strategy Long Tao, who has three peerless martial artists, is menacing this time, and it will definitely rewrite the power pattern of the otherworldly continent.
He did not agree with the "paper tiger" theory of individual elders, but the "paper tiger" theory itself was not very harmful. What Hui Camel is most worried about is that blindly optimistic people, if they are hit by setbacks in the next war, are likely to go to the opposite side: cowardice.
Now it seems that the number of cowards in the Council of Elders is very small, but if the number of blindly optimistic people is turned to cowardice, then the ratio is terrifying.
Hui Camel is worried, but he hopes that he is worried. Recalling the situation at the temporary elders' meeting, he felt a little comforted, the elders, calm and enthusiastic, still accounted for the majority.
The elders of heaven and the world, who usually don't like words, didn't express his position in words, but regardless of his image, he directly rolled up the sleeves on his arms and waved his punch the size of a sandbag.
Elder Hua Jue, who likes to cook in his free time, said slowly: "What's wrong with a tenth-level martial artist, even if I can't beat him, I have to eat this meal; if I can beat him, I still have to eat this meal, there is no difference!"
The peaceful Supreme Treasure Elder listened to the amusement on the sidelines, and teased: "Huahua, there is a difference! If you can't beat it, hey, I think you'll be enough to choke on your own cooking, hahaha......".
Elder Jianlai, who is silent and easy to stare at when encountering problems, does not express his position like the heavens and the world, but he pulls out his huge que, and wipes it repeatedly on his battle robe with a blunt and heavy sword.
Although the serious and persistent Elder Xuan Liang didn't say anything, Hui Camel believed that there was a flame in his heart. Xuan Liang, a young warrior who inherited Cao Yanbin's cherry blossom robe, was under far greater pressure than many young people of his generation, but he was like a green bamboo with excellent toughness, resisting the world's gossip with a tall posture, silently clinging to his own piece of the world, not liking things or being sad for himself, and taking one step at a time on the difficult road of martial arts.
Elder Loulan, who inherited Xuantian's white-clothed robe, had an indescribable resemblance to Xuan Liang, he said very little, but he was like a silent mainstay, and he could always be found standing there at critical moments, not flinching or evading.
Feidu's only personal disciple, Elder Lian Sheyou, is the deputy leader of the Soul Suppression Tribe and the current dean of the Soul Domain Academy, Hui Camel doesn't know much about him, but he believes in Feidu's vision. Many people only regard Elder Lotus as a hard-working tribal manager, but Hui Camel feels that Lotus has a mysterious aura on her. Around this young warrior, there seems to be a layer of clouds floating, when outsiders want to see clearly, it is always difficult to get their wish, like seeing things in the fog, maybe because Lotus is also an astrologer, Hui Camel thought to himself. The strength of the martial arts of the lotus roommate has improved by leaps and bounds in the fifteen years since Feidu drifted away, and no one knows how advanced the astrology is, but most people guess that he should only have learned a little bit of astrology, after all, the time to learn from the Feidu is too short, and the profound knowledge of astrology is difficult to produce results without investing a lot of energy and time.
Hui Camel's best friend Pang Wushuang, who pitied the two elders, was also a resolute main battle faction, and a rational main battle faction who clearly realized the terrifying strength of Tiger Strategy and Long Tao.
Hoping that he was too worried, Hui Camel sighed slightly in his heart. He is strong in his heart, he doesn't like his state during this time, sighing too much, but when the future is uncertain, a person's strength is always limited.
The lecture hall was still boiling......
Some students blushed because of their different opinions, and some people did not look excited on the surface, but their heaving chests and frowning brows from time to time when they heard what others said revealed their inner turmoil.
Standing on the top of the lecture hall, Hui Camel's heart was also turbulent, and he couldn't help but think of his young friend Xiao Menglou.
Xiao Menglou, like him, has been teaching since the establishment of the Soul Domain Academy, teaching natural knowledge. Fifteen years ago, Xiao Menglou did not give any explanation, resigned from the position of teacher, passed the robe to his disciple Bei Shao, and retreated in the Qinglian Cave on the top of Qingcheng Mountain, this retreat is fifteen years, and only during the New Year's Festival, he will hand the blessing Jinlian written by himself to the tribal leader through his disciple Bei Shao.
The young generation in the audience, who were full of vigor and controversy, looked like themselves back then, and Hui Camel couldn't help but sigh with emotion: Could it be that the burden of supporting the pride of the Zhen Soul would be so soon pressed on their immature shoulders? If that day really came, most of the high-ranking martial artists of the Zhen Soul Tribe would have died on the battlefield! Hui Camel snorted slightly, and a faint sadness swelled up in his heart: This time to go to Jiangxia, life and death are unpredictable, maybe it is time to say goodbye to old friends!
Thoughts weave back and forth between the past and the present, and the camel's face is sometimes smiling, sometimes frowning......
"Sir......" Xingchen Dahai's respectful voice once again pulled Hui Camel's thoughts back into the lecture hall, he and Tijiu Yanhuan discussed for a long time and didn't come up with a reason, but found that Hui Jiaoxi had not spoken for a long time, but looked out the window with a lonely smile on his face, his thoughts seemed to drift to the distant Jiuxiao clouds, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and call.
His thoughts were pulled back, and Hui Camel spoke: "Well, the discussion is almost over, let's start today's lesson! Today's class is more special, it is a discussion class, there is no right or wrong, no standard, and no need to follow the classroom etiquette required by the college, everyone can speak freely, what comes to mind, the only requirement is to tell the truth! Because I just want to hear everyone's real opinion!"
Out of some apprehension, after coming out of the council hall in the middle of the mountain, Hui Camel has been pondering how to teach this last lesson well!
Saying that it is the "last lesson", I always feel too pessimistic, but the more I am afraid of what happens, it will often become a reality, Hui Camel is astringent in his heart, he really wants to use this lesson to leave something in the hearts of the younger generation of the soul of the town, and even dissolve into the blood and bones, and become a tinder. Perhaps, this is the most valuable thing he can do for the soul of the town as the chief teacher of literature and history.
But where should such a lesson begin? Hui Camel thought, maybe he should let the young people themselves take the lead.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what is the purpose of martial arts?" Hui Camel waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Everyone looked at each other, and everyone hadn't recovered from the shocking news they had just heard, but they heard Hui Jiaoxi throw out such an unrelated topic.
Young people's nature is to easily divert their attention, but they were only stunned for a moment, and soon they were aroused by this open-ended question.
"For the sake of wealth and ......" Ding Tian was the first to answer, he is the only son of Ding Thorn, the big boss of Ding Tian Villa, Ding Tat named his only son Ding Tian, you can imagine how much he loves his son.
"For the glory of the lintel!" Zhao Yun, who came all the way from Liuli Island, said his answer loudly.
"For the ...... of Power"
"Because I like ......" The bored Renyi shyly interjected, and the King of Beiliang next to him immediately gave him a thumbs up.
......
Because you can ignore the etiquette in the lecture hall of the college, everyone is gossiping, you and I are talking, and all kinds of answers emerge one after another.
Hui Camel listened carefully one by one, making gentle comments from time to time, and nodding and encouraging many of the answers that did not seem to be on the table, and the kindness of teaching and learning that was different from usual made everyone more and more enthusiastic to express their opinions.
"For the sake of justice!" Ti Jiu Yanhuan was very excited, his voice was always drowned out by other people's answers, and he finally caught a gap and shouted loudly.
"Well, that's good...... Hui Camel raised his eyebrows, looked at his disciple with more than enough blood and lack of toughness with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and added a sentence casually: "The answer of mentioning wine and Yanhuan is righteous and awe-inspiring, admirable...... But I would like to remind you that no matter what kind of answer you answer, I ask you to express what you really think in your heart. But even if you think from the heart at this moment, you have only given half of the answer, and you can only complete the other half if you can fulfill your promise in the future. Those who are inconsistent in their hearts and words are hypocritical, and those who are inconsistent in their words and deeds are dishonest and equally contemptible! Therefore, you must think clearly before answering my question!"
Before he could be complacent for a moment, the words of the second half of Hui Camel were like pouring cold water on his head: At the beginning of his martial arts practice, it was precisely because of his admiration for those who practiced chivalry and righteousness! "Kuang Fu Justice" was indeed his heartfelt words, but when Mr. commented on this, he was a little uncertain, he practiced martial arts for the sake of "Kuang Fu Justice", but could he always persist in it? If he can't do it, he won't become the "dishonest person" in Mr.'s mouth?
"For women......" A slightly hoarse voice came out of the corner.
This surprising answer caused everyone to burst into laughter, diluting the somewhat embarrassing situation just now.
Hui Camel also smiled, and the person who spoke was an eighth-level martial artist, and Ying Yan was unparalleled in the world.
The hero is not a warrior cultivated by the Soul Domain Academy since childhood, he was born in a heroic family in Yinping County, and as the only son in the family, he is loved by thousands of people. He has almost never experienced a life-and-death battle, and his martial arts are basically built up by the huge financial resources of his family.
The growth environment of worry-free food and clothing, and what he wants, makes him always seem a little blind when he gets along with his peers.
Heroes who lack empathy and don't take into account the feelings of others don't get along well with other students.
Although the reviews are average, Hui Camel feels that the unparalleled nature of heroes is not bad. "In the face of great right and wrong, know shame and know how to advance and retreat" is his judgment on this disciple.
At a young age, he will consider women, which shows that the hero is an amorous person in his bones. I just don't know if you're trying to get a woman's attention and love, or to protect a woman?" After laughing, Hui Camel asked the hero a question very seriously.
Seeing that Hui Jiaoxi did not reprimand himself, the hero was very proud: "Both! Women like strong men, and practicing martial arts can also make men better protect women!"
"Well, yes, the hero has the heart to protect women and children! Indeed, in terms of force value, women are at a disadvantage, and heroes are unparalleled in the world to practice martial arts for women, no matter what, there is always a heroic and strong man's feelings in it, which is worthy of appreciation. ”
Hearing the praise of the teaching, the hero is unparalleled in the world, he raised his head in the direction of the sea of stars, the sea of stars has a gentle personality, and did not react much, but he pouted his lips disdainfully, if it weren't for the presence of Mr. Gu Ji, he would probably respond to the hero with a middle finger. The sea of stars, the wine and the joy are all young warriors who came out of Yinping County, but they should support each other, but because of the hero's unparalleled personality problems, the relationship is not good, there are no big contradictions, but small frictions are constant.
"However, I don't agree with practicing martial arts in order to attract women. Can't you attract women if you don't practice martial arts?" Hui Camel looked at the hero with a smile, "I see that you are handsome, not like such a man without confidence!"
There was another burst of laughter in the lecture hall, with the most exaggerated laughter.
The hero was a little unconvinced, wanted to say something to refute, muttered a few words, and finally didn't speak.
"For yourself!" a clear voice sounded, it was none other than the Seven Flails Society.
Hui Camel stood with his hands in his hands, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and nodded in the direction of the Seven Flail Society, motioning for him to continue.
"Practicing martial arts can make us stronger, and the stronger we are, the more we can do what we want to do. Whether it's for the glory of the ancestors, or for the sake of wealth and power, or for the ambition of dominating the continent, or even for the sake of women......" The Seven Flails Society glanced at the world's peerless with a smile and paused slightly, "Actually, it's all for ourselves! Some people like power, some people are obsessed with ambition, some people care about ingots, and some people like women......"
Xiao Bao, a quasi-seventh-level martial artist, interjected curiously and asked, "It sounds quite reasonable!Ah Qi, what are your needs?"
"Well, my needs are different at different stages. Take it as an example, I'm here to make a name for myself in the mainland!" After the Seven Flails Society finished speaking, he and Ji Ao looked at each other and smiled, and the two of them had the same views on this issue.
The pride, whose attention was completely absorbed by the answers of the crowd, had long forgotten the previous episode. When the Seven Flail Society smiled at him, he also grinned in response to his friend, and after laughing, he remembered the scene when he was just pitted, and he wanted to immediately tense his face, and his expression became very rich.
