Under the four golden plaques of Crescent Moon Restaurant, two very young and handsome young masters met. After saluting each other, the young man surnamed Wang smiled and responded:

"My country is magnificent and mysterious, and it is said that traveling thousands of miles is worse than traveling thousands of books. I have benefited a lot from this trip!"

The young man's response sounded extremely serious, and then another young man in a long gown in front of him nodded and said with a little admiration:

"In fact, I also want to be as free and easy as Brother Wang, to visit and appreciate the hundreds of millions of miles of rivers and mountains in our Great Xia, but everything is complicated, and I can't get away from it."

"I'm idle with wild cranes, but I envy Brother Fu that your parents are still alive and your family is harmonious."

"Hahaha."

After some politeness, the two looked at each other and smiled.

For people of different ages, New Year's Day always has completely different meanings. For those carefree children, New Year's Day means delicious food and fun, new and beautiful new clothes, and lucky money that is always on the mind.

And for the older young men, they have more worries. They will envy those gifted talents in the academy, and secretly appear in their minds about the girl they like, that pretty girl. Appearance.

Sometimes worry is just a seed, which will take root and sprout as the years grow, and there will be more and more. When the teenagers are older, there will be more worrying things.

And once they reach the age of the two young people who are standing at the entrance of Crescent Restaurant and haven't seen each other for a long time, in the depths of their heroic eyes, besides melancholy, there is also a touch of helplessness.

But at this time, it's like life has come to a crossroads. Some people want to open up and live in the present, while others lose themselves and spend their days in hesitation.

In fact, these two young talents who smiled at each other knew in their hearts that you can't have both, whether it's traveling around the world or becoming an official in Shenjing City, the one that suits you is the best.

"Brother Wang, please come inside."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, a young man named Fu Xin, who was wearing a brocade suit and was a little taller, raised his hand first and pointed at the inside of the restaurant, and then the young man beside him stepped forward and spoke response:

"Thank you, Brother Fu. Not long after I returned to Shenjing City, my front foot was invited to this Crescent Moon Restaurant as soon as my front foot arrived home. I'm still a little confused and don't know what's going on."

"Brother Wang, you have been away for more than half a year. Naturally, you are a little unfamiliar with what happened in our Shenjing City, but it doesn't matter. Sit down later and listen to me slowly."

After the young man surnamed Fu finished speaking, they walked through an antique passage, and the two officially entered the Crescent Restaurant in Shenjing Chengxi.

As soon as he stepped in, a noisy and lively atmosphere rushed directly to his face. At this time, there was still a long time before lunch, but the lobby of Crescent Moon Restaurant was already full of seats.

But if you observe carefully, you will find that in the lobby, almost all young talents are sitting upright, raising glasses to signal each other.

"Brother Fu, this is?"

After looking around for a week, the young man surnamed Wang showed doubts on his face. After the voice of inquiry fell, the young man beside him dragged him to the box on the second floor and explained:

"Brother Wang doesn't know something. Today is the first day of our summer vacation. Many of our classmates who are extremely busy on weekdays finally have time to get together. Come, follow me to the box on the second floor."

After the voice fell, the young man who spoke paused, and continued to speak:

"We are all disciples of the West White Tiger Academy in Shenjing. Although we each have opportunities abroad, it is not easy to get together, but this time, we have important matters to discuss."

As soon as the words came out, the young man who was walking up on the steps turned his head and frowned slightly. Although he didn't speak, the meaning of the question was self-evident.

"It's a long story. Since our Great Xia completely unified the northern border, His Majesty and the imperial court have issued a series of measures to stimulate and encourage the whole people to practice. One of them is the ancient secret realm!"

As soon as the words "Ancient Secret Realm" came out, the eyes of the young man surnamed Wang lit up. After a little thought, he opened his mouth and said:

"I remember that before I left Beijing in the Spring Festival, I heard rumors that there was a secret place in the city of Shenjing, but the number of places is limited, so we need to fight for it, right?"

"Exactly."

The young man named Fu Xin nodded, and said in a tight voice:

"Because last year was the first year that this secret realm was opened, the selection of the secret realm was tried on a small scale among all the young people under the age of 30 in Shenjing City.

"Because Brother Wang had already left the capital before the battle for places started, and we didn't take this secret realm too seriously. Underestimating the enemy, we were defeated by Daxia Qinglong Academy in the selection battle. .”

Having said that, the young man's complexion collapsed, with a deep look of annoyance on his face, he clapped his hands heavily, and continued to speak with a much higher voice:

"But who would have thought that after the disciples of the Qinglong Academy entered that ancient secret realm, although they did not explore deeply, some disciples were extremely lucky to obtain some magic weapons.

"I especially remember that one of the disciples obtained a ring called the Arcane Ring. Later, when communicating with our school, he was about to be defeated by exhaustion, but at the last moment, he took out the ring, Unleashing its internal supernatural powers instantly replenished a large amount of vitality, thus turning defeat into victory."

As soon as this remark came out, the pupils of the young man surnamed Wang shrank fiercely, and then he blurted out:

"This Taoist vessel that can store Yuanqi has been extremely precious since ancient times. To a certain extent, this is the monk's second life."

"Who said no!"

After the words fell, the annoyance on Fu Xin's face became even worse. Then he lowered his voice and continued to speak to the young man next to him:

"Brother Wang, it is said that in this secret realm, the secret magic ring I just mentioned is just the most basic Dao weapon, and someone else got a better one!"

Chapter 1613 Fairness

Taoist tools, as the name suggests, are tools for ascetics.

The reason why living beings are distinguished from beasts is that they can use utensils. In the same way, practitioners can communicate with heaven and earth, and supplemented by Taoist utensils, they can exert power enough to move mountains and fill seas.

Whether it is the northern region where Great Xia is located at this time, or the Central Plains, the land of Taixuan, after experiencing a world-shattering war tens of thousands of years ago, the Taoist artifacts on the entire boundless continent have gone through a round of extreme A tragic frenzy of destruction.

Originally, pieces of supreme artifacts that topped the entire era, shattered and shattered, missing and missing.

Even if the artifacts are like this, let alone the Dao artifacts used by ordinary monks, a large number of them were smashed and shattered, and they were wiped out under the torrent of history. Less than [-]% of them survived to this day.

Rare things are precious, so in the extremely chaotic land of Taixuan, Taoist artifacts will always be the focus of competition among forces, and they themselves are also part of the chance of heaven and earth.

Dharma, wealth and land, the four elements of practice, and Taoism accounted for a large part of wealth.

As we all know, Daiyu Xianshan sank under the North Sea tens of thousands of years ago, and before Zhao Yuhengkong was born, it was limited to all aspects. The martial arts in Shenzhou Haotu were not prosperous, and there were very few powerful Taoist weapons. few.

"Brother Wang, you should know that in our northern border dominated by Daxia, the imperial court's Ministry of Industry divides the strength of Taoist artifacts into five levels, except for those that are not popular. The first level is the weakest, and the fifth level is the weakest." It is the strongest, and although it is unknown how many are above the fifth level, our first artifact, Mountain and Sea Map, must be counted as one."

In Shenjing City, Baihufang Crescent Restaurant, in the stairs leading to the second floor, a young man Fu Xin's clear explanation sounded.

Then after the two turned a street corner, the voice of the former continued to sound:

"High-level Taoist artifacts often have amazing lethality. Therefore, the imperial court has extremely strict control over Taoist artifacts. Although high-level Taoist artifacts will not be confiscated by force, they must be filed with the Ministry of Industry."

After the voice fell, Fu Xin's eyes turned slightly, staring at the door of the box that had appeared in front of him, raised his hand to pretense, opened his mouth again and said:

"The preciousness of Dao utensils lies in the fact that it is very difficult to prepare, and most of the utensil sects that have been handed down for a long time in our Great Xia are classified under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry, so once there are Dao utensils for sale in the official premises, even if they are not popular Dao artifacts will also be snatched up in an instant.

"So I'm ashamed to say that although we have been practicing for a long time, most of us are still alone, without even a Taoist weapon, so we are deeply annoyed. After all, we had such a good opportunity before, but because of Underestimate the enemy and let it go for nothing!"

After Fu Xin finished speaking, the annoyance on his face remained undiminished, and then the young man surnamed Wang next to him thought for a while, and asked in a voice:

"Brother Fu, what do you mean, after the end of this year, this ancient secret realm will open again?"

"Exactly, the news has spread that soon after the new year's end next year, His Majesty will open the second ancient secret realm!"

As soon as this remark came out, the raging flames in Fu Xin's eyes suddenly lit up, indicating that he had great ambitions in this secret realm.

"It's interesting. Listening to Brother Fu's words, I have aroused curiosity about this ancient secret realm."

"We should have understood the extraordinaryness of this secret realm long ago. After all, it was created by the master of the pilgrimage, and the secret realm created by His Majesty's all-powerful ability is not a place to be taken lightly!"

After the increasingly unwilling and remorseful voice came out of Fu Xin's mouth, the two came directly to the front of the box, then raised their hands and pushed forward lightly, the door of the box opened immediately, and with the next breath, their eyes looked at each other at the same time. Come.

At this time, there were not many people in the wide box on the second floor of the restaurant, and after seeing the appearance of the two people at the door, everyone in the room put down their wine glasses one after another, stood up in unison, and said in a voice:

"Brother Fu, Brother Wang, you two are here. We have been waiting for a long time. Please, please."

After the words fell, there were quite a few young people, all of whom were wearing the robes of the Great Xia White Tiger Academy, with a curious expression on their faces, they made way for the two people outside the door to sit down, and the latter had just sat down. The sound of introduction was followed by:

"In today's Crescent Restaurant, in addition to some of us who have graduated, there are also talented young students from the White Tiger Academy, so maybe I don't know much about the people around me, Brother Fu, so let's make it simple. introduce."

After finishing speaking, the person stretched out his hand, and the voice continued:

"White Tiger Academy, Senior Brother Wang Juan."

As soon as Wang Juan uttered the words, after the disciples in the entire box thought for a while, some disciples opened their eyes wide and let out an exclamation directly:

"Wang Juan, the previous white tiger leader of our academy?"

After the voice fell, the faces of the people around suddenly revealed extremely respectful expressions.

Because every leader of the academy is the pride of heaven!

Shenjing City is the heart of the Great Xia Emperor's capital, and the number of school palaces within its vast area is the highest in the entire world. There are only five high school palaces in the southeast, northwest, and middle.

The Sifang Academy is named after the Four Divine Beasts respectively, so the Academy where the disciples in this box are located is called the White Tiger Academy.

As one of the higher schools under the emperor's feet, the White Tiger Academy is naturally powerful without a doubt. Every student who is promoted to the White Tiger Academy is the leader of the younger generation in the entire Great Xia, and can become the leader Those who are the best among the best.

The Daxia Higher Academy graduates every four years, and the leader of the first graduation is Wang Juan in front of everyone.

In other words, Wang Juan, who was sitting behind the desk in the box at this time, was a myth in the minds of all the disciples of the White Tiger Academy!

In fact, shortly after Zhao Yu ascended the throne, he began to fully integrate the educational resources of the whole Great Xia. From the basic school education of the children to the practice of the younger generation, they have all undergone earth-shaking changes.

When Zhao Yu cut off the last sword of Daxia Jianghu in Jianjian Lake, the power of the Jianghu in the entire vast land of Shenzhou was officially exhausted, and the sects became more and more marginalized. Apart from the numerous big sects, the small sects dismissed their disciples one after another.

In just one or two years, there was only one mainstream force in the Great Xia practice world, the Great Xia Academy.

Five years ago, three thousand Confucian scholars went to Shenzhou. Starting from a single spark, a raging fire spread in all directions. Within a very short period of time, countless palaces of mathematics sprang up from every city in Daxia.

From the primary school where children in various cities and counties can read and write, to the highest-level Baidi Academy built by Zhao Yu himself beside the Baidi Palace, the school has advanced layer by layer. The first 20 years of a person.

Although Zhao Yu didn't say it clearly, he showed the people of Daxia with practical actions that he was doing his best to ensure the fairness of every child of Daxia.

Fairness in education, fairness in practice opportunities!

Chapter 1614

Under the heaven and the earth, ten thousand races are fighting for the top, just like a hundred boats fighting for power, cruel and ruthless.

In this world of cannibalism, countless races and forces, in order to survive and grow, follow the naked jungle law, so there is no so-called fairness at all.

But fairness is relative!

After Zhao Yu came to power, he carried out drastic reforms in many aspects, especially the two aspects of people's livelihood and military campaigns that were related to the foundation of the country.

Reform is always accompanied by pains, and it will also touch the inherent interests of the original forces, but Zhao Yu is strong enough, strong enough to smash all obstacles.

Therefore, after a series of reforms in Great Xia at this time, the results are beginning to show. The number of practitioners alone is already blowing out like a blowout, which is unstoppable.

"Our five major institutions of higher learning in Shenjing City, except for the first institution of higher education beside the emperor's palace, the four institutions occupying the southeast, northwest, and north are all on equal footing.

"And if you calculate it carefully, our White Tiger Palace is a bit stronger than Qinglong Academy, but we stumbled last year and lost the qualification to enter the secret realm. Every time I think of this place, I feel thumping, extremely unwilling."

In the boxes on the second floor of Crescent Moon Restaurant, the rich aroma of food filled the air. Then an older monk patted the desk in front of him lightly, and the voice continued to say:

"Thinking about it now, if we were the ones who entered the secret realm last time and waited for the White Tiger Palace, then we would be the ones who brought the Taoist weapon to show off in front of us!"

After the words fell, all the disciples in the whole box nodded bitterly. It is true that the failure last time made these White Tiger Palace disciples feel uncomfortable.

Then the young disciple Fu Xin who was sitting next to Wang Juan put down the teacup he had taken a sip from, and the voice continued:

"We summoned the disciples of the White Tiger Palace to come here this time to find a way to avenge the shame. In other words, this time the competition for the ancient secret realm cannot be lost."

After finishing speaking, all the disciples nodded one after another, and then Wang Juan, who had been sitting upright without speaking, showed more thoughtful expression on his extremely fair face, raised his downcast eyes, and a faint voice of inquiry came out:

"Although the strengths of the four higher schools in Shenjing City are almost the same, in terms of cultivation realm, my White Tiger Academy should be among the best. Why are you all so sad?"

As soon as this question came out, Fu Xin who was beside Wang Juan shook his head and sighed:

"Brother Wang doesn't know that the competition for the ancient secret realm this time is really not that easy, because the opponents we are facing are far from being as simple as the other high schools."

After finishing speaking, Fu Xin raised his right hand, dipped the tea in the quilt in front of him, then stroked lightly on the desk a few times, and the voice continued to say:

"After the first trial, this year's battle for the ancient secret realm, the imperial court will face the entire Great Xia, that is to say, almost all the younger generations in the entire Great Xia will participate in this battle.

"More importantly, after a year of preparation, no one will relax this time. Everyone knows how precious this weapon is, so everyone will go all out for this battle, including We're inside."

"Whoever underestimates the enemy this time will be a real fool!"

As soon as Fu Xin's words fell, the voice of an unknown disciple rang directly from the side, but it was this simple sentence that made the disciples of the White Tiger Palace in the box stagnate.

Afterwards, Fu Xin, who wanted to talk a lot, got stuck in his throat when he was about to blurt out, and then turned into a cough:

"Cough cough!"

Afterwards, Fu Xin, who was sprinkled with salt on his scar, calmed down, and continued to speak in a somewhat dispirited manner:

"Apart from our White Tiger Academy and the Shenjing Four Divine Beast Academy, the strength of the other colleges in the big cities should not be underestimated, including the Guangzhou Academy in Guangzhou, the Canglan Academy in the east, etc. wait.

"Besides, the original Taoist Palace, Bingzong and other sects are naturally also enemies. After all, our school has not been established for a long time, and their background is deeper."

After Fu Xin's voice fell, an elderly monk in the box nodded in agreement, and said in agreement:

"This time, the news from Si Tianjian is that His Majesty will open the second and even the third layer of the secret realm, and all younger generations under the age of 30 can participate in the competition.

"As soon as this news comes out, even those outstanding figures who have already become famous in Daxia can't help but make a move, so it will add a lot of variables to this battle. To come back and participate, that would not be great."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the box fell silent, and then someone continued to speak:
