Lord of the Night

Fang Che also quickly glanced at everyone, taking in everyone's reactions.

I have a slight idea in my heart.

Then he raised his glass and walked to the teaching table to toast.

"Well said."

Li Changkong complimented.

Several other teachers also looked at him with admiration.

Fang Che smiled ashamedly: "I'll let you guys learn the joke."

Teacher Liu from Class 11 sighed: “We are only envious.”

Bing Shangxue stopped the chopsticks in her hands, looked at Fang Che and said, "Tell me, kid, what is your purpose?"

These words almost made Teacher Liu and others almost flinch.

Why did this sentence suddenly appear?

Did I just miss something?

"There's no purpose." Fang Che smiled innocently.

"If we don't say anything now, we won't know anything." Bing Shangxue snorted and pretended to get the chopsticks.

"Don't, don't..."

Fang Che hurriedly stopped: "Teacher, actually I only have one question to ask. Can I go out to do tasks now? The second thing is, I want a weapon that can be enchanted. How many credits do I need?"

Li Changkong snorted on one side and said: "First, these are two problems. Second, you can't go out to do tasks. Third, if you have that kind of weapon, let alone not having it, it won't be your turn. Third Fourth, you can’t afford it even if you get it in your turn!”

Fang Che's face turned completely bitter.

On the other hand, Professor Liu next to him felt soft-spoken and explained with a smile: "You have just made a breakthrough, and you have only entered the martial arts academy for less than two months, and you want to do a mission? That is not possible. First, you have to memorize all the mission codes. Pay attention. The answers to the questions are fluent, and some general task content requirements must be clear. Only after passing the assessment can you go out to complete the task."

"To put it simply, you have to understand that when you are doing tasks, you only do what you should do and don't do tasks that you shouldn't do. Even if the opportunity is perfect and within reach, you can't do it."

"Because that will cultivate a sense of luck. So you can't. This is the biggest rule when doing tasks!"

"Then it's your cultivation level. You should at least reach the middle stage of the third level of Wuzong before you can take on some low-level tasks."

Liu Jiaoxi said: "Our Baiyun Martial Academy is not a mercenary hall after all, so the corresponding tasks that can be completed by students of all levels are basically achievable. And we are not allowed to skip tasks, even if you Once you complete the leapfrog level, there will be no rewards, let alone excessive rewards, but only punishments and deductions of credits."

Fang Che's eyes widened: "Ah? Is there such a thing?"

Everyone laughed: "So you have to understand the rules of the martial arts academy first. Otherwise, your few credits will basically be deducted by doing a few super-level tasks."

Fang Che rolled his eyes weakly.

Decided to look for these rules tomorrow.

"Then... what about that kind of weapon?"

Fang Che said with hope.

After all, he still has the spirit body of a golden-horned dragon.

No matter what, we have to find a place for it to live, right?

Otherwise, what should we do if there are some messages that are inconvenient for Ye Meng to transmit in the future?

That was an important part of the plan.

"Basically no chance."

Duan Zhongliu said: "Don't talk about the problem that you can't afford it; it's just that if there is such a problem, you can't find a few good things like that in the entire continent."

"Even if there is, it must have been nurtured by someone for a long time and developed spirituality before it can be enchanted or possessed."

"But if you want that kind of weapon to exist alone, there is only one possibility, and that is that the original owner is dead. It is only possible if the magic weapon has no owner."

Fang Che knew this clearly.

And he knew even better that that kind of weapon was really hard to find. There may be places where there are no master weapons. One is the guardian headquarters, the other is the major super families, the third is various upper-level institutions, and the last one may be the major peak martial arts academies.

Because the martial arts academy wants to cultivate geniuses, it is possible that something like that exists in the peak martial arts academy.

There are many places where magic weapons may exist.

But for Fang Che currently, there is only one hope: Baiyun Martial Academy.

Everything else is beyond his reach!

Teacher Liu took a sip of wine and said, "It's rare that you invite me to take a sip of wine today. Then I will go out of your way to answer your childish questions that your teachers don't want to answer for you."

"The reason why I am naive is because it is difficult to find and cannot afford it; there is no point in telling you."

"When the master of that kind of magic weapon dies, the battle he encounters must be unimaginably fierce. Generally speaking, with the death of the master, the magic weapon will be destroyed and turned into scrap metal."

"Even if you survive, you will still be injured and it will be difficult to recover."

"Even if it exists completely, the spirituality inside will not recognize anyone. Because it is only spirituality, but not wisdom-"

Liu Jiaoxi sighed and said: "Because a wise magic weapon will self-destruct after its master dies, even if it is still intact. This is without exception."

"As far as I know, our martial arts academy has such a spiritual weapon. It's a gun."

"But that gun is the treasure of the entire martial arts academy. You can exchange it for credits..."

Professor Liu smiled: "One hundred thousand credits is not enough!"

He looked at Fang Che: "Not to mention, your more than two hundred! Well, after paying for the food and drinks tonight, it won't be enough for two hundred."

Fang Che was completely desperate.

On the side, Li Changkong said slowly: "Rather than buying it, it's easier to cultivate it yourself."

"Grow one yourself?"

Fang Che's eyes lit up again, this was a solution.

Moreover, I also knew a way, but the materials were hard to find, so I asked in the hope of success: "Does our martial arts academy have that kind of materials?"

"No!"

Li Changkong couldn't help but laugh when he saw that he was actually moved.

The decisive answer: "Absolutely not!"

"Because once someone gets hold of that kind of material, they will never keep it! Instead, they will immediately turn it into a weapon. Therefore, even though that kind of ownerless weapon may exist, that kind of material will never be ready-made! "

Several teachers laughed and winked at each other.

I felt deeply relieved that I had played a little fool.

In Fang Che's heart, tens of thousands of divine beasts were rushing past.

Do you think you are very humorous?

I'm almost autistic, okay?

If I had known this, I wouldn't have invited you.

At this moment, Bao Feiyu was heard chewing on the bones and said vaguely: "But this kind of material, it is said that someone has found it in the Forest of All Spirits..."

"Shut up!"

Li Changkong's expression changed.

Bao Feiyu also quickly shut up. A look of sarcasm.

Li Changkong sighed, with a sad look on his face.

This guy, these words can kill people. Can this little fool not be tempted if he knows this?

The Forest of All Souls, is that a place where people can enter? Even if he and the other four join forces, they may not be able to come out alive if they go in.

"Hey... The Forest of All Souls is the kind of divine material that a strong man once brought out, but... it was only a piece of the soul-locking bell Diao Wuqiu that Lord Diao Wuqiu brought out five hundred and seventy years ago. .”

"Before Lord Diao, I had never heard of anyone finding it for thousands of years, and after Lord Diao, I have never heard of anyone finding it."

After Li Changkong finished speaking, he looked at Fang Che seriously: "Fang Che, give up this idea. This kind of thing is not something you can covet!"

Fang Che nodded silently.

He raised the glass in front of him and drank it down in one gulp.

Li Changkong gave Bao Feiyu a hard look.

His face was ashen.

Bao Feiyu dodges his eyes, knowing that he is in trouble and does not dare to look at him.

At this moment, Mo Ganyun took a sip of wine and said, "Teacher, can you explain to me about the realm of martial arts?"

Li Changkong looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "Your family didn't tell you?"

"What the family is talking about is the family's own system, which is still different from the martial arts academy or the world's recognized realm."

Mo Ganyun said: "As for each realm, there are different opinions. No matter which family, no matter what the family is, it cannot compare with the summary experience of the Martial Arts Academy."

"That's true."

Li Changkong pondered for a moment and said: "Originally, I planned to say it during the big class, but since you asked today, it doesn't hurt to say it in advance."

He didn't think about it at all. He was already very familiar with these things in his mind, and he didn't know how many times he had said them.

He said: "The classes of martial arts practitioners gradually appeared when the gap between the strong and the weak was too great. After thousands of years of evolution, they gradually became what we know now."

"For example, in the original pure innate realm, some innates can even single-handedly kill an army that can also be called the innate realm. How can such a disparity be compared in the same realm?"

"So the martial arts classification comes from this."

"I will tell you about the monarch level first. When you get to that time, you will basically know everything and there is no need to talk about it. Well, the various levels are: martial apprentice, warrior, martial master, martial sect, innate master, military general, military commander, Wuhou, Wuwang, Wuhuang, monarch.”

"First of all, martial disciple. You have all passed the realm of martial disciple, but you cannot but mention it, because it is the origin of martial arts. It is the first dividing line between a warrior and ordinary people."

Li Changkong said: "Since you desire to become stronger, and you are at least coordinated with your hands and feet, you can perform various movements effortlessly. As you continue to work or exercise, your strength can further increase. This means you have the initial qualifications to learn martial arts." Qualifications. But now you know nothing and need to be taught everything. No matter who you are in front of, you are just a student, so you are called a martial arts disciple."

"This is the basic gap between warriors and ordinary people, because you also know that there are many ordinary people who work hard or exercise too much, which will cause their bodies to become useless, and their muscles and bones cannot keep up with the intensity of exertion. This means they have no qualifications. I It’s talking about...people before the age of thirty.”

"We understand."

"This dividing line is also what you call the ninth heaven of martial arts, the first heaven. But one thing, I want to remind you, the so-called ninth heaven of martial arts in your mouth is actually the ninth heaven under the world, the so-called secular world. The ninth level of martial arts is not the pinnacle. This statement is summed up by martial artists themselves and is not a true rank."

"After becoming a warrior, after knowing the most basic things such as how to exert force, how to perform martial arts, how to fight, as well as the meridians, bones and muscles of the human body, etc., with skillful use and the strength increases to a certain level, one will naturally be promoted to a warrior."

"So it is easy to break through from martial apprentice to warrior. As long as you have reached the level of cultivation, find someone of the same or higher level and fight with all your strength. You will be able to break through naturally, just like piercing a layer of window paper. Simple and easy. And basically nothing will happen.”

Li Changkong said: "So there used to be a saying in the martial arts world that... when a martial artist breaks through to a warrior, as long as the partner he finds is not a fool, there will be no problems. But when a young kid breaks through, how can he find a fool at home? Where to practice? So this is impossible, so this is the safest level."

Hearing this, Fang Qingyun's mouth twitched with difficulty.

My face is burning, and my heart is a little sad. I want to teach you what you are saying and what you mean by being stupid...

At the same time, I felt pain all over my body, as if my father's whip was swishing at me again with the angry curses.

Fang Qingyun trembled.

Couldn't help but turn around and glance at Fang Che.

Fang Che also turned his head to look at him at the same time, with a smile on his face and actually gave him a thumbs up.

Fang Qingyun turned back fiercely, his face like the bottom of a pot.

My cousin is so mean!

Li Changkong did not pay attention to the small movements between them and continued: "The rank of warrior and the word scholar correspond to scholars. Just like scholars, only when they have a certain amount of knowledge can they be called scholars. A person who has just begun to read cannot be called a scholar. You must understand this."

"And that's what a samurai is, a scholar of martial arts. They are in the stage of accumulating strength and knowledge in martial arts. This is a samurai!"

"After a warrior has accumulated to a certain level, he will know a lot, and his strength will gradually increase. When it reaches a certain stage, a situation will occur, that is... those junior brothers who have just entered the martial arts will not need to answer questions that they do not understand. Go ask the master and you can help him answer it. And you can answer any question at this stage."

"In other words, your knowledge is enough to teach disciples. At this stage, corresponding to the literati class, it is private school teaching. You can teach Meng Tong... Do you understand? Therefore, at this stage, you are qualified to be called ' Master'. This is a martial artist."

"Don't underestimate the realm of martial arts, because there are too many people with average qualifications on the mainland. They have no way forward here, so they start to open martial arts schools in small places and enlighten many children in martial arts."

"And the martial arts at this time are already out of reach for ordinary people."

Li Changkong sighed and said, "Having said this, I want to tell you that the gap between people is sometimes... greater than the distance between heaven and earth!"

No matter who said this, he nodded fiercely.

indeed.

This is the world.

"Then after the martial arts master, there is the martial arts sect. What is a sect? When a sect is established, this is a sect. What we call a martial arts sect now is actually not enough to be called a sect, because the force is enough, but it is not enough to become a unique school. That kind of situation. But since it was divided like this back then, I won’t say much here. Let’s just talk about strength.”

Li Changkong smiled and said: "But Wu Zong, you can think of him as the principal of a school, which means that his knowledge, knowledge, and force are enough for him to lead a group of martial arts masters and support a school. So Do you understand?"

This way it is in-depth and simple, and there are various metaphors, so everyone can naturally understand it.

"The gap between the Wuzong and the martial arts masters is too big. It's so big that they can't be matched at a glance. Let me give you a specific analogy, such as Fang Che and Mo Ganyun. Before Fang Che broke through the Wuzong, he fought with Mo Ganyun. He has the upper hand, but it will take a while to defeat Mo Ganyun. At least, there are a dozen, twenty, or thirty moves."

"But after Fang Che breaks through the Wuzong, it only takes half a move to defeat Mo Ganyun. You have all seen this. Well, that's the gap. Between the martial artist and the Wuzong, it is not a leap in rank, but a kind of An essential breakthrough. The strength and agility improved after the breakthrough are beyond the reach of a martial artist."

Mo Ganyun's strong body tried his best to shrink into the chair, reducing his presence, but he still attracted everyone's attention.

I couldn't help but mutter: "Just use an analogy. Use me as an example. I don't want to lose face..."

The sound is extremely small.

But everyone has ears and eyes, but they all heard it. Can't help but make fun of it.

But now that Li Changkong was imparting knowledge, everyone immediately stopped laughing and listened carefully with their ears raised.

I have heard people explain it before, but who can explain it to Li Changkong in such a simple and easy-to-understand way, and with the level of explanation, I can still gain insights?

"Wuzong and martial arts master are two adjacent levels, but they are the dividing line between secular warriors and true martial arts warriors."

Li Changkong said: "You must remember that warriors and ordinary people are on the same line, and martial arts is the second dividing line. Every line is like a chasm."

"This second dividing line is what you call the second level of the ninth level of martial arts. And Fang Che is now at the starting point from the first level to the second level."

Everyone nodded silently.

"After Wuzong, there is Xiantian. The so-called Xiantian is the fetal breath. Simply put, it is the internal breath that we cultivate. Without the help of mouth and nose breathing, the body forms its own cycle, which is endless. But in terms of time, There are long ones and short ones, the long ones are infinite, and the short ones are only a few dozen normal breathing times.”

"And the word "Xiantian" covers a lot. It is said that in ancient times, from the current emperor level to below, they all belonged to the category of "Xiantian". It was later refined."

"So after the word Xiantian, two words are added, which is Grandmaster. Xiantian Grandmaster is what ordinary people call Xiantian Grand Master."

"But you should note that this is not a distinction between a master and a great master, but between nature and nurture. This section must be remembered clearly."

"A learned martial artist, no matter how awesome he is, cannot be an innate opponent. Even if the two of them are equal before one breath, they are acquired, but after one breath, the other person breaks through and enters the innate, then the gap between them is Just a short distance will instantly turn into heaven and earth!"

"Even Duan Xiyang, the most powerful weapon in the world, could not defeat any first-level innate person in his martial arts sect just by relying on his strength!!"

Li Changkong said this emphatically.

"So this is a real watershed. What separates us from here are our own lives."

"So, from Wuzong to Xiantian, it is the third dividing line. Although the distance is very short, there are countless people who cannot break through the line of Xiantian in this life! You are all from martial arts families, you should know this."

"Well, the ninth level of martial arts, the third level."

Everyone present nodded silently.

Especially people from eighth- and ninth-level families such as Fang Qingyun, as well as seniors in the family, are all blocked from this line.

Everyone has white hair, Xiao Ran, but he is still the Wuzong.

"At this time of innateness, you can already make achievements. So from this time on, you begin to transcend the life trajectory of ordinary people."

"As for martial arts cultivation, from this moment on, the name began to change."

"Because you enter the army innately, if you are an ordinary army, you can basically become a corps commander, a commander, or even... a centurion. And the road of making achievements for a man begins from here. Especially for warriors."

"So the next level is the military commander! The centurion is just a captain, but with meritorious service, promotion, stronger force, and richer combat experience, he can become a general who leads an army and can lead soldiers and horses into battle. Yes, you all understand the literal meaning, right?"

"clear."

"After becoming a military commander, as your experience in training and tactics improves, the next step is to become a handsome man. From being a general to being a handsome man, there is no need to explain this, right?"

"Need not."

"So there is not much that can be explained about these two levels. After all, they are both separated from the innate, and they are just added to make them easier to understand."

"The only difference is that the commander's tone is the same as the rate, the rate of the leader. In other words, you must have the ability to command. That is, you must have the ability to command the generals below, have an insight into the overall situation, and win a thousand-mile victory. And at this point, Martial arts talks about spiritual awareness, induction, and precise control of the power of your subordinates."

"When we get here, we have basically touched the threshold of what is called 'subtlety' in martial arts. But we have only touched the threshold."

"Furthermore, the so-called martial arts condensation and commander level can also be understood in some superficial ways. But what is understood is the power of leadership, the power of gathering people... not the real power, so we can only talk about it in superficial terms."

Li Changkong said: "If you say this, can you understand?"

"I understand."

"Here, there is another dividing line. The fourth dividing line. Because you should have heard of a saying that if the jar is not broken outside the well, the general will inevitably die before the battle. Is that right?"

"yes."

"So the next step is to become a marquis."

"So, whether they are generals or commanders, there are not many people who can fight many victorious battles, accumulate meritorious service, and contribute enough to be granted a title."

"You often hear that you are granted the title of marquis and worship the general, but you must understand that being granted the title of marquis is a treatment that can only be received after the general returns to the court after winning a battle. This is not an official position, but a title."

"It's not that simple for one general to achieve the goal of becoming a marquis."

"That's why you can only be named a Marquis after being a Commander-in-Chief. It means that you are already in the secular world, below a few people and above tens of millions of people. It also means that you have power. This power is power. Still not It is considered a real power, but your current power, when faced with an ordinary warrior, can already overwhelm him, it is the power of a superior person."

"So Wuhou is the fourth heaven of the nine heavens of martial arts."

"But here, you have to understand one thing. It is absolutely impossible for the martial master in the front to win against the martial sect, but there is a chance of a leapfrog battle against the martial commander after the martial master."

"Because this is the accumulation of strength, and there is no improvement in realm. In other words, there is no feeling of 'sudden enlightenment that there is a new world in front of you', that kind of feeling of pushing away the clouds and seeing the blue sky. Suddenly enlightened, suddenly enlightened, and became a Buddha immediately. Nothing like that.”

Li Changkong's explanation was extremely detailed, and everyone understood it very well.

"Similarly, this also verifies what was said before, 'Below the emperor level, everything is divided into innate realms.' Do you understand?"

"understood."

"It's good if you understand."

"Next is the fifth dividing line, which is King Wu. Well, the fifth heaven in your mouth."

Li Changkong's tone was always a little weird when he said 'The Ninth Level of Martial Arts'.

The words ‘in your mouth’ are always added.

This means: In fact, he himself does not recognize this meaning.

After talking so much, he felt a little thirsty. Li Changkong took a sip of wine from his glass, moistened his throat and said, "What is a king?"

"King, it is said that in ancient times, the monarch of a country could only be called the king. The king could control an area. In this area of ​​heaven and earth, he was the biggest, and this was the king!"

"And in the realm of martial arts, you can only be crowned king if you reach a point in a certain direction that others cannot touch."

"From this point of view, the current so-called King of Martial Arts is not actually worthy of this title. However, years of conventions have created the current weird rank, and this can only be used as such."

Li Changkong chuckled: "After all, calling Xiantian Grand Master, General, Commander, Marquis of Wu, King of Wu, and Emperor Wu all the same as before would make things even more chaotic than it is now."

Everyone laughed.

Li Changkong rolled his eyes and said, "Actually, I'll tell you a secret."

"What secret?"

"Actually, there were originally some ranks such as Martial Prime Minister and Martial Prime Minister, but they were too complicated and were cancelled."

Everyone smacked their lips at this.

If it were further subdivided like that, wouldn't there also be Wu Yushi, Wu Shangshu and so on? Waiting for Mr. Wu?

It’s so scary to think about.

"After King Wu, he is the head of a country. We call him the emperor. Emperor Wu has reached this point. The emperor can divide the kings and control them. Naturally, there is also the saying of Emperor Wu, but he is on the same level as Emperor Wu."

"Beyond the Martial Emperor is the monarch, and the monarch is the pinnacle of the mortal world."

"Because in a world, many dynasties and empires often exist at the same time. The rulers of these dynasties and empires can all be called emperors."

"However, at some point, these countries will unite to fight against another powerful alliance opponent. Since they are united, there must be the most noble person to unify the orders. Otherwise, everyone will go their own way in chaos and become a mob. . And this most noble person is called the monarch. Even the emperors of various countries must respect the monarch when they see him."

"This is the most noble title in the world of mortals. At least in our mainland, this is the way."

"The king, the king, is the common master and king of all countries!"

"Because in the later stage of the monarch, one can already achieve the power of force unimaginable by ordinary people. In the later stage of the monarch, one can already borrow the power of heaven and earth, or in other words, understand a little bit of the secrets of the great road between heaven and earth."

"In other words, the pinnacle of power in this mortal world is also the starting point of extraordinary power. And you will naturally understand these when you reach this state."

"This is the sixth dividing line. But it is the ninth heaven in your mouth."

"So I have never recognized the ninth level of martial arts among people in Jianghu, because they refer to Wuhou, Wushuai, Wuwang and Wuhuang as several levels of heaven, which is wrong, because these ranks, originally, belong to the same innate In terms of rank and category, forcibly separating the Nine Heavens is just putting gold on one's own face."

"No matter how overbearing the name is, it's useless. The key depends on the level. So I hope you remember this sentence. Don't think that you will really go to heaven because of the martial arts. Don't be misled by rumors."

Everyone laughed together.

Including Fang Che himself, all had sarcastic expressions on their faces.

Because in his previous life, he had always been advocating the ninth level of martial arts...

After hearing such a precise analysis today, I suddenly realized that what I have been talking about all my life is actually nonsense...

This taste is really amazing.

Li Changkong laughed and said: "That's all I can explain to you. It's just because I've only been to the emperor, so I can't tell you very clearly about the emperor and the king. And you shouldn't be able to go there while you are in the martial arts academy. Such a high level. The rest is up to you to experience."

All students are thoughtful.

The four teachers from Class 11 stood up and raised their glasses to toast with respect on their faces: "Teacher Li, you are worthy of the gold medal. Got it!"

Li Changkong laughed loudly and drank it all in one gulp.
