Volume 21 The Theory of the Environment
Now that Ming Xuan has decided, the elders don't say anything more, although they all have some regret in their eyes, they still respect Ming Xuan's choice;
Although Ming Xuan has decided to go to Sunset Peak, but the battle of the rankings still has to be carried out, due to Ming Xuan's withdrawal, all the people who are ranked behind him have all been raised by one place, and after the ranking is determined again, everyone will start to fight against each other!
The five hundred people who can stay here now are not ordinary people, and the competition between each other is also very intense, and everyone is dizzying, but the matter here has nothing to do with Ming Xuan, he just watched quietly from the side, wanting to pay attention to the tables of his two friends, and also wanted to learn something from everyone's competition.
"Brother Gu, long time no see!" Duan Hefeng walked over and greeted warmly, now is the time when the ranking battle is at its most intense, but it doesn't matter to those of them who are observing.
"It turned out to be Brother Duan, it's been a long time!" Ming Xuan shook his head, but he quickly recognized him.
"Congratulations to Brother Gu for becoming an official disciple of Qingyangmen. Although Duan Hefeng's tone was flat and there was no irony, it was very harsh when he heard it in Ming Xuan's ears.
"How should I answer you? Thank you?" Ming Xuan was a little helpless, there was no teasing in the other party's eyes, and Ming Xuan really didn't know how to answer him.
"Brother Gu, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else!" Duan Hefeng instantly understood, and found that his words were indeed a little inappropriate, it seems that he doesn't know much about human feelings, otherwise the two would not have quarreled while drinking tea in the teahouse.
"Then I thank you. Seeing that he was a little flustered, Ming Xuan also knew that he was unintentional.
Being stirred up by him like this, the two immediately fell into an embarrassing situation, but they didn't know how to continue talking, Duan Hefeng didn't stay or leave, he stood aside, it is estimated that he would rather have a big fight now than be embarrassed here.
"Brother Duan is a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect?" Fortunately, Ming Xuan still understood a lot of human feelings during this time, and his words broke the embarrassment.
"Well, I apprenticed under the immeasurable path of the Carefree Sect, and I am the one who sits on the stage. Duan Hefeng said solemnly, and his face began to gradually return to normal.
"Then who are the others?" Ming Xuan asked curiously, there were a total of four chairs on both sides of the high platform, and it should be the Taoist people of the four sects.
"The first one on the left is undoubtedly from our Xiaoyao faction, the first one on the right is from the Gale faction, the second on the left is from the Canghe faction, and the second one on the right is from Tiangangmen. Duan and Feng had already greeted them, so they were naturally more familiar.
"Isn't it your sect called the Three Great Dao Sect along with our Qingyang Sect and Liuyun Valley, why is there no figure of Liuyun Valley?" Ming Xuan asked suspiciously.
"Hehe, Brother Gu doesn't know, Liuyun Valley is different from other Taoist sects, their disciples only accept women and not men, so Liuyun Valley is all women, and Liuyun Valley has always been low-key, rarely walking on the rivers and lakes, so they will not participate in this kind of observation conference. "Although when it comes to human sophistication, Duan Hefeng may not even be as good as Ming Xuan, but when it comes to things on the rivers and lakes, he knows far more than Ming Xuan.
"I see, it's strange, but I haven't heard of the other three factions. Ming Xuan said apologetically.
"Oh, they are also a relatively famous sect in the rivers and lakes, Brother Gu has just entered the rivers and lakes, and it is normal not to know them, and I only learned about them not long ago. Duan Hefeng said with a smile, which in turn relieved Ming Xuan's discomfort.
"I see. Ming Xuan let out a sigh of relief, for fear that he was too ignorant and would make people laugh.
"The three factions of them should come every year to observe the selection of disciples of the Qingyang Sect, and Brother Gu will gradually get acquainted with them, just like the Nanhua Sect, Xuanyougu and Chiding Sect will come to observe our Xiaoyao Sect every year. Duan Hefeng opened the chatterbox, and there were more words.
"Well, why is that, the relationship between the sects is particularly good?" Ming Xuan was a little confused when he heard it, how much Taoism loves purity, so the location of the sect is mostly selected in a quiet place, and it seems a little abnormal to visit the selection of other people's disciples every year.
"Hehe, in fact, it's not a secret, my faction and your faction are the most famous sects in Zhongzhou, every year's selection, will attract almost all the genius teenagers in Zhongzhou to come to participate, but the competition is also extremely cruel, more than 10,000 people to the end only a hundred people can finally stay, many also extremely good disciples are facing elimination; , and after cultivating in Qingyangmen for so long, the foundation is already very solid, if you join their sect and cultivate it well, maybe it will become the pillar of their sect, far better than the disciples they recruited outside, so they are also happy to do it, and they will come to observe every year, so as to select excellent disciples among the eliminated people, and for those disciples who have been eliminated, this is not an ideal place. Duan Hefeng said with a smile.
"I see!" Ming Xuan suddenly realized at this time, no wonder everyone was willing to participate in such a cruel selection, even if he couldn't be selected, he could still worship other sects, if he was selected, he could become a disciple of Qingyang Sect, even if he was unfortunately eliminated in the future, he could still go to a good sect, and he was also actively invited, and the future was still very bright.
"Because each sect has a different way of cultivating disciples, the cultivation method of Qingyangmen may be the best, but it may not be the most suitable for everyone, so some disciples may be unknown in Qingyangmen, and even be eliminated in the end, but they may change their cultivation methods after changing a sect, or they may suddenly be ashamed and brave, study hard, and eventually become a generation Everyone maybe, in previous years, this kind of thing is numerous, and their achievements are even higher than many official disciples of Qingyangmen. Duan Hefeng said with a smile, in fact, there are countless such things in their free sect.
"Indeed, oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and oranges born in Huaibei are oranges, and changing the environment may have unexpected effects. Ming Xuan also deeply agreed with this, even if he practiced hard in the water stream every day, it was still not as effective as the experience in the forest, which was also caused by the change of the environment.
"Yes, like this time, the representatives of the Gale Sect and the Canghe Sect are the former senior brothers of your elders, but they were unfortunately eliminated in the elimination competition that year, and their current achievements may not be as good as a few elders, but they are already very good, compared to many senior brothers who have become official disciples of Qingyangmen. The case is right in front of me, and I can't help but believe it.
"I think they are also painstaking, with them teaching here by word and deed, it will naturally attract many disciples who have been eliminated by my sect to go to their sect to learn the arts. Ming Xuan saw the mystery at a glance.
"Brother Gu has good eyesight, he can see it so quickly!" Duan Hefeng said with some surprise, Ming Xuan's reaction was a little unbelievable.
"This is an obvious thing, but Brother Duan came to me specially to talk to me, and it won't be as simple as catching up and talking to me about the selection. "Ming Xuan not only saw through the ideas of several major sects, but he was afraid that Duan Hefeng also had other ideas when he came to him.
"Brother Gu said it so bluntly, I was hiding it and falling into the inferior!Hahaha, to tell you the truth, I was actually curious about Brother Gu's choice of Sunset Peak. Seeing that Mingxuan had already found out, Duan Hefeng didn't care about anything else, it was better to talk to smart people directly, otherwise it would cause them to be disgusted.
"I don't understand why you are so confused, I actually want to ask: why are you so strange that I chose Sunset Peak?" Duan Hefeng said a lot of other things, but Ming Xuan had long expected that his real purpose was this, but he also wondered why everyone was so curious and puzzled about his choice.
"The reason is very simple, Sunset Peak is not a good place to learn arts, it is not comparable to the Qingyang Seven Peaks, this point does not need me to repeat, and I also looked at Brother Gu's previous ranking, it was one hundred and forty-four, and I believe that with Brother Gu's strength, he will definitely be able to keep this position in the ranking battle or even higher, then in this way, you can also win a good position in the Seven Peaks, and there is no risk of being eliminated in at least three years, so I really can't understand Brother Gu's decision, so I have the cheekiness to ask." Duan Hefeng is also upright, and he will say whatever he wants.
"Since Brother Duan is so frank, then I'll tell you the truth, maybe in your opinion, Sunset Peak may be far inferior to Qingyang Seven Peaks, not a good place to learn art, but we have also discussed before: orange is born in Huainan is orange, born in Huaibei is orange, although the main reason is still personal, but the environment will still affect one, and I think I can achieve better achievements in Sunset Peak than in Qingyang Seven Peaks! Ming Xuan said firmly, to show his determination.
"Then why exactly?" Duan Hefeng was still puzzled.
"Hehe, I don't think Brother Duan will believe it if I say it now, but I will prove it to Brother Duan, at least three years, more than five years, I will prove to the world that my decision is correct!" Ming Xuan said proudly, his eyes lit up slightly, as if he saw his future self.
