One month flies by in a blink of an eye.
Soon, it was time to go to the Demon Realm to participate in the battle.
On this day, Fang Yi received a notice to go to the martial arts hall of Dali Academy to follow the final arrangements for going to the Demon Realm.
While walking on the road, Fang Yi suddenly felt a throbbing in his chest.
Fang Yi was a little surprised that Yunxi actually sent him a message at this time.
These days, the communication between Fang Yi and Yun Xi has become less and less, and there is almost no communication. This time, Yun Xi took the initiative to contact him?
"No updates today." Just when Fang Yizheng was about to write down such a sentence and send it to Yun Xi, he saw Yun Xi's message.
"Have you broken through to the fifth rank of Hanlin?" Yun Xi asked at this time.
"No." Fang Yi replied: "Why do you ask??"
After sending this message, Yunxi stopped replying and remained silent.
This made Fang Yi feel a little strange. Why should he ask himself this?
It's not that Fang Yi can't break through to the fifth rank Hanlin. He can break through at any time if he wants to.
After all, just adding some points is enough, isn’t it just a matter of having hands?
But Fang Yi wants to participate in the battle of the Demon Realm, and the condition for entering the Demon Realm is the fourth-grade Confucian scholar. If he reaches the fifth-grade Hanlin, he will not be able to enter the Demon Realm, but will be strangled by the seal of the Demon Realm.
Seeing that Yun Xi didn't reply to his message, Fang Yi didn't think much and went straight to the martial arts hall.
These students were gathered together this time to talk about entering the Demon Realm. Now the battle situation in the southeastern sea area is gradually becoming clearer. Compared with the battle situation in the north, the battle situation in the southeastern sea area is now basically one-sided.
This means that as long as there is enough time, sooner or later the balance of victory will tilt to the side of Confucianism and Taoism.
The first of Zhao Zhe's two plans has already begun to bear fruit.
Next, it’s time to make the second plan.
"Students, I have called you here today to talk about entering the Demonic Realm." This time, it was Grand Confucian Jiang Chongxu and Grand Scholar Lu Sheng who summoned them.
The two of them are fully responsible for this pinnacle competition, and are also fully responsible for recruiting students to enter the Demon Realm.
"Dear students, with the approval of Song Daru, we have formulated two measures to deal with demons. We must use all the elites of Dali Confucianism and Taoism to defeat the demons in one battle and protect Dali's peace for thousands of years. You must be aware of this. It's very clear." Lu Sheng said at this time.
"The purpose of this peak match is actually to implement the second strategy, which is to clean up the Demon Realm."
"The top twenty disciples selected this time will go to the Demon Realm to participate in the battle."
Lu Sheng said this, and then spoke again: "Before entering the Demon Realm, I first want to introduce to you what kind of existence the Demon Realm is."
"The Demon Realm, you can understand it as the nest where demons are born. The Demon Realm is the womb of the ancient Demon God. From the Demon Realm, countless demon tribes can be born. After the ancient Demon God fell, some big demons in the Demon Realm refined the Demon Realm into The magic weapon of the demon clan is filled with the essence and blood of the demon god, and there are countless demon clan eggs, so the demon clan can be born infinitely."
This time, Lu Sheng told many students the origin of this demonic realm.
Everyone is listening carefully.
"In the beginning, the Demon Realm was extremely powerful. After countless Demon Clan eggs absorbed the Demon God's essence and blood, they could quickly transform into top Demon Clan. Therefore, the Demon Clan multiplied very quickly, and the Demon Clan was more powerful and more powerful than the Demon Clan. It’s terrible, killing the human race is more harmful than the demon race.”
"This situation has been going on for many years." Lu Sheng's tone was a little low at this time: "Before the Master was born, the southeastern sea area was a place where demons were raging. It was not what it is now. But after the Master was born, he began to expel the demons continuously. , little by little, we are snatching territory for my human race.”
"And the effect is also extremely obvious." When Lu Sheng talked about the Master, there was infinite admiration in his eyes. In fact, not only Lu Sheng, but also anyone else in the academy would be filled with endless pride when he mentioned the Master. and pride.
"The Master killed most of the big demons of the Demon Clan, and also severely damaged the Demon Realm, causing the Demon Realm to seal itself. After that, the number of Demon Clan born was instantly reduced by half." Lu Sheng continued: "So we have thousands of years. Until the end, during the Zhou Sheng period, the demons made a comeback. Zhou Sheng controlled his clone and went to the demon realm, trying to find the demon realm's weaknesses and destroy the demon realm in one fell swoop."
"But it's a pity that the work fell short. It was also from that time that the demon clan finally launched the demon realm protection plan. They sealed the demon realm and used the demon relics to strengthen the demon realm." Lu Sheng glanced at everyone at this time , said: "But after the reinforcement of the Demon Realm, there are also certain disadvantages. After the Demon Realm is reinforced, the energy of the Demon Realm is greatly reduced, and the number of demons born is also declining day by day."
"Later, under the auspices of Zhou Sheng, several attacks were launched against the Demon Realm. Although the Demon Realm was not defeated, the rules of the Demon Realm were clearly understood."
"Every hundred years in the Demon Realm, the seal will loosen. With a powerful blow, the seal of the Demon Realm can be broken, and humans can enter." Lu Sheng said at this time: "However, to enter the Demon Realm, only those of the fifth grade can Only Confucian students who are below the fifth level can enter the Demon Realm. Confucian scholars who are in the fifth level or above the fifth level will be recognized by the Demon Realm and hunted down."
"This is a rule that started from Zhou Sheng and took two hundred years to finally discover." Lu Sheng said this, looked at all the students present, and said: "This is why we hold the peak competition, and there are restrictions Only Confucian scholars below the fifth rank can participate, this is the reason."
"Because only Confucian scholars at the fourth level can play a greater role when they enter the Demon Realm. Of course, the seal also limits the demons in the Demon Realm. They are all below the fifth rank. Once they break through to the fifth rank, they will Automatically teleported out of the Demon Realm."
"The students we selected entered the Demon Realm. On the one hand, they killed the fourth-level demons in the Demon Realm. On the other hand, they destroyed the eggs of the demons and prevented them from being born indefinitely." Lu Sheng said Finally, their purpose of entering the demon clan was clearly explained.
Speaking of this, Jiang Chongxu asked: "Students, please listen clearly. If you have any doubts, just ask. You are all genius students with the most outstanding talents. You have been sent to the Demon Realm." , you may have a narrow escape from death. This is equivalent to overdrafting our Confucianism and Taoism's future hopes to fight for peace for hundreds of years in the future. Although we have made sufficient preparations, Dali still does not want you students to enter the demonic realm. There is no return, the body dies and the Tao disappears."
Many students outside the field did not ask if they had any problems coming to participate in this peak competition. The academy they were in before, or their master, had already told them these things.
Their understanding of the Demon Realm is no less than that of Lu Sheng.
"In that case, let's start announcing." Jiang Chongxu said at this time.
Lu Sheng picked up the roster at this time and said: "Now, I will announce the list of students who have entered the Demon Realm and participated in the battle of the Demon Realm. If I name one person, please list one person."
With that said, Lu Sheng began to read.
"Fang Yi!" Fang Yi stood up and took the first place.
"Ji Yuehen!" Ji Yuehen also stood up and stood in second place.
"Tuoba Hao!" Lu Sheng read out the third name.
Tuo Bahao stood up, but he did not stand behind Ji Yuehen. Instead, he looked at the stage. He slightly cupped his fists and said: "Jiang Daru, Grand Scholar Lu, I have something to report to my disciple."
Lu Sheng looked at Tuo Bahao with some confusion, and then turned to Jiang Chongxu, with a hint of questioning in his eyes.
Jiang Chongxu frowned slightly and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
Tuo Bahao said with some embarrassment at this time: "Disciple, I have broken through to the fifth-grade Hanlin realm. I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the Demon Realm."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. Everyone looked at Tuoba Hao with disbelief and some disbelief.
What the hell is Tuo Bahao doing? ?
He participated in the pinnacle competition and won all the rewards of the pinnacle competition with a third place result. But now at the most critical moment, he said that he had broken through to the fifth-grade Hanlin realm and could not participate in the pinnacle competition? ?
At this moment, Fang Yi understood everything immediately.
He finally understood why Yunxi asked specifically, had he broken through to the fifth-grade Hanlin realm?
This is not a casual question, but it means that among the top twenty students, some have already broken through to the fifth-grade Hanlin realm! !
They did it on purpose! !
Previously, Jiang Chongxu boasted that students from Dali Academy were not afraid of sacrifice and bloodshed, and would also participate in peak competitions and go to the Demon Realm to fight. These were all lies! !
It's all a trick they used to deceive students from other schools.
They participated in the peak competition, and because of their talent and outstanding strength, they all achieved excellent rankings in the peak competition, and because of this, they received huge rewards.
In particular, the top ten students like Tuo Bahao not only received the treasure of Great Confucianism, but also listened to the lectures of Mr. Da and Song Daru.
They had a huge harvest and made a lot of money, but at the critical moment, they said that they had broken through to the Hanlin realm.
Damn it, none of them were absent during the moment of benefit, but when it came to the battle of life and death, none of them showed up! ! !
Tuo Bahao is definitely not the first. Among the top ten, apart from Fang Yi, there are probably few who have not broken through to the fifth rank of Hanlin overnight! !
At this time, Jiang Chongxu was also furious and asked Tuoba Hao: "Tuoba Hao, you know that to enter the Demon Realm, you need to be below the fifth level. How dare you break through to the fifth level Hanlin realm? When will you not break through? , but it’s only at this time that you break through, are you greedy for life and afraid of death??”
Jiang Daru was furious, and the terrifying pressure instantly enveloped Tuoba Hao.
Tuoba Hao also felt the terrible pressure, but he remained calm and did not care about the strange looks from others. He explained: "Jiang Daru Rongci, the disciple previously suppressed himself to the state of perfect fourth-level sincerity. , it has been a long time, and I could have broken through at any time. In the past few days, after listening to the lectures of Song Daru and Mr. Da, it has been difficult to suppress my own realm. I have no intention of breaking through, and I have absolutely no thoughts of being greedy for life or fear of death. Please be careful, Daru. , I am willing to bear all the wrath of the great scholars and I am willing to pay any price for it!"
