Chapter 493: Tripartite Forces
Mr. Ling Bo Fang Yizhi's admission of defeat was very unwilling, his heart was full of helplessness and chagrin, but there was no way, who made him more unlucky, in the first battle, he met Ji Qianshan, a Shuangyue god general with divine soldiers, and as a result, it should have been his own direct opportunity to take the lead and win the supreme glory, but he lost.
Winning in the first round is the best chance, because he was unlucky, he couldn't seize it, so he naturally had to accept the test of the melee repechage, so that the strength consumption was greater, and it was also a matter of course. In fact, he and the other four people who didn't even succeed in the repechage and were eliminated directly and did not qualify for the second round at all, are already very lucky. However, as a strong man and an arrogant person, Mr. Ling Bo Fang Yizhi naturally couldn't accept the evaluation of his own family and the last four people together, so he naturally substituted himself into the ranks of the strongest, that is, Meng Bai's level. Therefore, at this moment, he is very painful.
No one can help him solve this, only if he understands it himself, can he cross this threshold.
Contrary to Mr. Ling Bo Fang Yizhi, Jin Yong, a heartless Taoist, was very happy, because, strictly speaking, his strength was weaker than that of Mr. Ling Bo Fang Yizhi, but because of his advantage, he finally had the last laugh and became the last place winner, and had the qualification to compete for the leader of the Angry Dragon Gang. Moreover, after this round of personal strength competition, the next thing to assess is leadership ability and meritorious performance. In this regard, personal strength naturally still has a great effect, but he is no longer the only assessment criterion, which means that he does not need to fight Meng Bai by force. This situation is not only the unintentional Taoist Jin Yong, but also a thing that the entire seed team is faintly afraid of. There is no way, the strength shown by Meng Bai himself is too outstanding, and he is better than anyone he is. Although they each have some special means of their own, and they will not use them until the moment of life and death, but how can Meng Bai only reveal the tip of the iceberg? What are the hidden means at their level, what Meng Bai hides, it is impossible to say that it will be even bigger, let alone comparable to them!
To tell the truth, if it weren't for the fact that a total of three gang leader candidates were to be selected this time, but only one was selected, then in the end, they were afraid that most of the people would give up directly in their hearts, and even if they still wanted to fight, they would not have much hope. After all, Zhuyu is ahead, and it is really difficult for the rubble to catch up.
But, one way or another, no matter what the process, what the causes, what the luck,...... , blah blah, all in all, at this moment, the three gang leader candidates of the Raging Dragon Gang have all been released. They are Meng Bai, Zhou Wuyan and Jin Yong, a Wuxin Taoist.
The situation of the three of them is very average, Meng Bai's true identity is a "hidden invader" who belongs to the main realm of the earth, even if this level is aside, he also belongs to the prince's line;
Perhaps, some people are wondering, why distinguish Meng Bai's crown prince line from Jin Yong's prince lineage, strictly speaking, they all belong to the princes of the courtyard court, and the essence is the same, they are all court families, representing the most orthodox power in this great metaverse.
It can't be said that this is wrong, but overall, he is certainly inaccurate. As long as you have a little experience in power and political struggle, you will know that in a court, whether he is strong or weak, there must be antagonism between his crown prince and other princes, and there is absolutely no room for reconciliation in this kind of contradiction. However, it is possible to establish a relatively close relationship between other princes in a short period of time, and the purpose is very simple, that is, in order to push the prince from his current position in the shortest possible time with the highest probability. Otherwise, he will always be the prince, although the prince carries a reserve character, but he is also a king, and he has a master-slave, strong and weak branch relationship with other princes.
The people of the prince's family, if they only think about the fox and the tiger and make benefits for themselves, then he must be the most powerful, compared to the people of the other princes, they are not at all alone. Because such a person is too good at grasping loopholes in the rules and exploiting loopholes, he will use the power of the prince's mark to the limit, all for his own selfish interests. As for what harm he will bring to the prince himself, whether he will be impeached, whether he will be reprimanded, or whether his position will be lost, they don't care at all. It is precisely because they don't care that they have no taboos and are domineering, but they live a very chic life. Of course, once the investigation begins, they will be directly beaten back to their original shapes, or even executed. After all, these things they do, let alone the imperial court, even the crown prince himself, can't tolerate them.
There is also a group of people who are trying to help the crown prince ascend the throne, inherit the throne smoothly, and take charge of the entire court, their purpose is to become a minister of the dragon, so as to share the huge dividends of the reward after the prince's successful accession to the throne. Because they have more ambitious goals, they are living a cooler life at this stage, before the crown prince officially ascends the throne. Because they have to take care of this and that, for fear that what they have done will implicate the prince and cause any bad influence on the prince and cause any trouble. In this case, they are even willing to sacrifice themselves in order to preserve the "perfect image" of the crown prince. Among them, there may be some people who are stupid and loyal, or loyal people, but the other part is thinking, my own family is dead, as long as I keep the secret and live up to the prince, my son, my family, and my relatives can be better taken care of and more benefits.
As an alien descender, Meng Bai is naturally different from these people who are native to the Great Metaverse, but the trajectory of his behavior and deeds is the same as that of the latter kind of people, and he must do his best to maintain the status of the prince himself, and he must not cause him any trouble. Although Meng Bai couldn't sacrifice his own deity for the crown prince, there was no problem in sacrificing Meng Bai's current identity. After all, this prince is also his own family member of Kunlun Academy, and when he helps the prince, he is helping this Kunlun senior who is in the Great Metaverse Realm, and helping the development of the entire Earth Lord's Realm, which can definitely be said to be extremely noble.
If Meng Bai was specially sent to do this kind of task, then no matter how unwilling he was, he would have to fight for everything, even his life, for this matter. But fortunately, his arrival this time is just a reward for Kunlun Academy's rookie elites like them, and the focus is on helping them better move towards a higher level of martial arts, focusing on experience.
The reason why Meng Bai has come to this point is that first, because his starting point was too low, and he had to take advantage of the situation to join the entire prince's lineage; second, it is also the pursuit of higher-level martial arts in Meng Bai's heart, he hopes to obtain better martial arts secrets, be able to find better sharpening opponents, and be able to make a breakthrough in his own strength again; third, it is the issue of agreement notarization between him and Yue Zhenting, since they have found the senior of the Hedao, and have truly experienced the convenience and benefits brought to him by the senior of the river, Meng Bai will naturally have to make a full return。
This is a kind of constraint that Meng Bai himself gave himself, and he does not rely on any external pressure. It is precisely because of this that Meng Bai has to become so active in this action, otherwise, with his identity as an advent person, and it is only a pure reward, he will naturally become more calm.
The three forces of the gang leader, the crown prince, and the prince have quotas at the same time, which is a very coincidental thing, but it is also a very real problem. That is, the competition between each other will definitely be more intense, because the thing is very obvious, in this kind of merit competition, unless a person's strength has an overwhelming advantage, otherwise, it is still necessary to rely on the strength of the group, rely on the strength of those elders and gangs under his command, only in this way, can you get the final victory.
Relatively speaking, the body that Meng Bai descended on, after all, was at the bottom of the gang, and he was not familiar with these passages above. In particular, among the forces of these princes, although they are all in a very critical and important position, after all, there are not many of them, and the larger system still belongs to the native people of the Great Metaverse. In this case, they may not give Meng Bai the green light in too many aspects.
This is not to say that they will not support Meng Bai, but that a seed like Meng Bai is definitely not a person for them, and in this competition, Meng Bai may not be the object they need the most help. And Zhou Wuyan and Jin Yong, the heartless Taoist, are very different.
Zhou Wuyan is now the last sustenance of the former gang leader Cui Tieshan, the only choice, at this time, how can he not give an account of his most pressing capital in the past. Because, only after Zhou Wuyan became the helper, he could get the highest level of treatment, and even the authority could take a part of the profits, and return as a nameless Taishang helper, making his future career even better.
And Jin Yong, a heartless Taoist, may not be as full as Zhou Wuyan in terms of the support of his own family's forces, but because the forces behind him belong to the prince's lineage, it is possible to form an alliance with other princes, so as to get the joint support of many princes' forces. In this way, he can become the person with the strongest background, and naturally, his chances of winning in the end become greater.
Meng Bai knew all about these things, and he himself had actually been trying to influence these situations before. For example, find a way for the crown prince and his family to also start communicating and uniting with some of the prince's forces, not asking how much blessing they can get, the key is to reduce the help and blessing of other competitors as much as possible, so that their competitive environment will become better.
For Meng Bai himself, he doesn't need any extra care, as long as he can maintain a basic fairness, he is very willing. Even if it was a failure, he didn't care. However, in the current situation, he can't accept defeat, and he doesn't care so much about fairness, and is ready to use some means. Because, he hopes to be able to give a decent explanation to the Kunlun seniors who helped him.
Meng Bai's thoughts are very clear, one is to use his own soul Dafa to convert some of his own people around Zhou Wuyan and Jin Yong, the Wuxin Daoist. These people, perhaps because of the distance from each other, Meng Bai could not control them freely, but it was still no problem to indirectly awaken and control them through some special instructions. And through them, there is no doubt that they will be able to learn a lot of information that they shouldn't know, but this is not the point, the point is that at the critical moment, they can also use the last decisive means to physically eliminate the opponent as they did when they targeted Cui Tieshan, the former gang leader.
The other one, that is, the self-encompassing system of Kunlun Academy, in terms of speaking, this is also the prince's person, but as their real own people, they still have their own set of means, which can carry out some sharing and provide some convenience. These people are scattered in all aspects of the Great Metaverse, everywhere, and every prince has his own people under his hands. If Meng Bai asked them to help directly, their own authority would definitely not be enough, but it should not be difficult to make some delays at some key nodes, under reasonable rules, and weaken their support for Jin Yong, a heartless Taoist.
Of course, these are all off-the-board moves, as the saying goes, you have to be hard to strike iron, if your own strength is insufficient, then how to help you with those external things, can not achieve the results you want. Meng Bai himself did not have any idea of winning by relying on off-board moves, for him, these were just means to deal with the opponent's off-board moves when he had no choice but to do so. As for his own achievements and merits, for him, it is not a problem, he has absolute confidence in his own power and ability.
