By the time Hu Yuan returned from overseas, Zhu Houzhao had completed the cleanup of the old forces in the court and the reorganization of the new forces, and truly took control of the supreme power of the most powerful and prosperous country in the world today.
Zhu Houzhao was naturally very curious about Hu Yuan's experience on this overseas trip.
Because this matter involved treasures such as the Water, Fire and Dragon Balls, Hu Yuan did not try to test whether the powerful power and even the long life would be more important than the master-disciple relationship between the two in the heart of this disciple who was already the master of the world.
So he only told the result of the battle that day and concealed Zhu Wenkui's identity.
Anyway, Shen Lang is the only one who knows about it now, and he has taken the initiative to promise Hu Long that he will strictly keep this secret, and has chosen to stay on the island to deal with the forces left by Zhu Wenkui, and will not return to China in the short term.
When Zhu Houzhao learned that his master had achieved a record of using an innate grandmaster to counterattack a micro-grandmaster, he was shocked and excited at the same time. He also became more confident in a big plan he had planned earlier.
In the past year, Zhu Houzhao issued an order to reform the martial arts examination system. In addition to improving its standards and formally establishing the imperial examination and the top three levels in accordance with the imperial examination, he also published a "Martial Classics" jointly written by Hu Yuan and Wang Shouren and issued it to the world. As a compulsory textbook for those who are interested in participating in martial arts examinations.
This "Martial Arts" is only divided into two chapters: "Strength" written by Wang Shouren and "Boxing" written by Hu Yuan.
The reason why the "Boxing Technique" chapter can be compared with "Strategic Strategy" is because the so-called "Boxing Technique" is just a general term, which covers a wide range of things, including the use of various immediate and step-by-step skills and the use of long and short weapons.
It is named "Boxing Chapter" because it is the first chapter and the core of the whole chapter. It is a boxing method called "Nine Military Styles".
Although there are only nine styles of boxing, it is the crystallization of Hu Yun's lifelong martial arts wisdom and its practical application.
The wonder of "body" is to combine the nine-style boxing method with the corresponding simple breathing method and practice it frequently. Not only can you strengthen your muscles and bones and increase your energy, but those with certain bone endowments will have the opportunity to develop their internal strength from the outside to the inside.
The magic of "use" is that these nine boxing techniques are the general outline of all the fighting techniques in the "Boxing Chapter". After you are familiar with the changes of the nine-style boxing, you can then practice the following techniques such as grappling, lances and daggers, horseback archery... you can naturally get started quickly and get twice the result with half the effort.
Three years later, with the end of the first martial arts examination, Zhu Houzhao specially awarded the titles of Wushu Zhuangyuan, Wushu Ranking Second, Wutanhua Chief Soldier and Deputy Chief Soldier to the first-level high school students. All those who received military positions ranging from high to low were arranged to undergo training in the three major camps of the capital.
Except for a few of them who were born in martial arts families and had been influenced by their families since childhood, most of the others who got the first place were due to their intensive study of the "Martial Arts" in the past three years.
Since then, everyone in the world has seen another path to success beyond the ten-year cold window. More and more people are studying the "Martial Arts" in order to obtain a birth certificate through martial arts.
With this brighter future, fewer and fewer people join various martial arts sects and gangs.
Seeing their own power shrinking day by day, these people naturally hated Taoist Hu Yuan as the instigator, but they were helpless against the world's best master.
Especially two years later, Bai Tianyu, the new leader of the Demon Sect and the "Prodigal Son of the Magic Sword" who was once ranked sixth in the "Weapons Spectrum", invaded the Central Plains with the Demon Sect's supreme magical skill "The Divine Sword Cut", and a demon sword swept across the Central Plains. All sects, wherever the sword points, there will be no life for those who take it.
Later, the Shaolin sect, which had announced a ten-year closure, was also challenged by Bai Tianyu. They had to break their oath and attack Bai Tianyu with the "Arhat Formation". As a result, Baitian Yu's magic sword killed everyone including Shaolin Abbot Xin Hu. The three leaders broke out of the formation.
In the end, Bai Tianyu took advantage of his invincible appearance and challenged Taoist Hu Long, who was recognized as the best in the world, to regain the "Full Moon Scimitar", the magic weapon that suppressed the religion and was snatched away by Taoist Hu Long.
Hu Long, who has lived in seclusion in recent years and rarely appeared in the world, suddenly appeared under the expectation of everyone. With the wooden sword "Ming Ling" that swept the world back then, he defeated the "Magic Sword Slash" that shocked the gods and ghosts with one sword. "He chopped Bai Tianyu under his sword and then floated away.
In this way, no matter how resentful the various forces in the martial arts world were towards Hu Long, or how dissatisfied they were with the imperial court that severely squeezed his living space, they did not dare to make any moves behind his back.
As the saying goes: "Poverty leads to change, change leads to success."
First of all, the Shaolin sect, which is well versed in the way of survival and has been inherited for thousands of years, took the initiative to make changes - since it could not reverse the overall situation, it took the initiative to adapt to the overall situation; since it could not defeat the opponent, it took the initiative to join the opponent.
The new head of Shaolin, Xinshu, reformed the sect rules and listed the military strategy boxing skills in the "Martial Arts" as a required course for lay disciples, and encouraged them to participate in martial arts to earn a living.
As some martial arts practitioners and martial arts scholars who were born in Shaolin appeared and were appointed by the court according to their talents, other sects followed suit.
Gradually, these martial arts sects transformed one after another and became similar to various folk academies and private schools that trained martial arts talents for the imperial court.
When Zhu Houzhao, the bold and willful Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was making drastic changes, the whole world was entering the era of great navigation, which was undergoing great changes.
Although the Western European countries were distracted by a long and fierce battle named the "Italian War" in later history books, they still did not forget to cast their eyes full of aggression and greed overseas, and various powerful warships were continuously built and launched. .
In the fifteenth year of Zhengde's reign, Zhu Houzhao, who was in his prime, finally set his sights overseas.
He imitated the story of the Sanbao eunuch's voyages to the West in the past, using his own incarnation as "Zhu Shou" as the chief envoy, and Zhang Yong and Wang Shouren as his deputy envoys. He also invited his master, Taoist Hu Yuan, to accompany the ship and lead a larger fleet. Go to sea.
With sharp artillery fire superior to those of the Western countries, this fleet eliminated one by one the forces of the two Western countries that were generally called Folangji by the Ming Dynasty, and later were divided into Spain and Portugal. The nations were brought back under their wings.
Since then, this ever-expanding fleet has gone to sea many times, traveling farther and farther, and even reached a rich, vast and primitive land discovered by a Western navigator named "Christopher Columbus" more than ten years ago. An unexplored continent.
What followed was a war that lasted for more than ten years due to the huge interests of all parties.
In countless large and small wars, in addition to conventional power, all parties also suffered from extraordinary power. As a result, Hu Long was able to meet countless strange people and strangers in the Western world.
When Zhu Houzhao initially established the world structure with the Ming Dynasty as the core with his strong ships and cannons, Hu Yuan also used a pair of fists, two magic swords, and three flying knives to dominate the world, completing his sublimation from the invincible Ming Dynasty to the world's invincible …
