It’s the end of the world after becoming a mountain god!

The Xuanmen event officially began, and the opening remarks were still the usual "leadership speech".

While the leader was speaking, Zhang Zhiqi urgently gave some scientific information to his fellow apprentices and his master.

"There are currently ten elders in the Xuanmen Alliance, and the person who spoke above is one of them. They are all recognized as highly respected people within the Xuanmen."

Among them, the first five elders all came from the sects with the strongest comprehensive strength, and three of them were from Taoism, including Yunyang Taoist Temple, Taishang Taoist Temple, and Qishan Taoist Temple.

Another one came from the first Buddhist temple, Brahma Temple, and the last one came from Confucianism.

"This Confucian sect is different from other sects. Their attack methods mainly come from ancient texts. Therefore, they require disciples to read all the classics of the Flower Kingdom and specialize in a certain field. For example, this Elder Tang is good at Tang poetry and Song lyrics."

He pointed at several young men and women who were wearing Confucian-style robes, each with a writing brush hanging around their waist.

"As expected, each of them has a face that looks like a top student. You can tell at a glance that they have read a lot of books." Yan Fei touched his chin, looking like he had learned something new.

Zhang Zhiqi glanced at him seemingly unintentionally, and said with a smile: "In the Confucian School, a doctorate is just the entry threshold. In addition to being an elder of the Xuanmen Alliance, Elder Tang is also the vice president of the Huaguo Academy of Social Sciences and a well-known literary master at home and abroad."

Except for Zhang Zhiqi, all the undergraduate students present, including Song Tang, felt as if they were shot in the chest.

I didn't expect you to be such a mysterious person, and even discriminate against academic qualifications!

"Ahem, that's not necessary." Song Tang, who only attended the Imperial Academy and didn't even have a bachelor's degree, followed up on Zhang Zhiqi's words and said, "The reason why the entry threshold of Confucianism is high is because their entry threshold for Taoism is even higher!"

"Once the Confucian school has been practiced to the extreme, it can visualize the content of the ancient texts. For example, don't you see that the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky? Another example is that the great peng rises with the wind one day. Therefore, in the entire Xuanmen, the Confucian school is basically impossible to achieve the right result without great talent and perseverance."

That's it!

Everyone's sour feelings towards Confucianism instantly turned into sympathy and admiration.

Their looks were so direct and obvious that several fellow Confucianists who were still whispering about their recent experiences couldn't help but look at them.

Seeing that they all had friendly faces, the Confucian and Taoist friends didn't understand why, but they still nodded at them in a friendly manner.

"If the first five elders were elected to represent the forces behind them, the other five were elected purely because of their high combat power. One of them is Elder Bai from the Taoist Association, one is Master Ma from the Corpse Drivers, and the other is a bit special, he is Elder Sun from the Xinglin Sect."

"In terms of combat power, he is not as good as the other nine elders, but the flying needle technique and alchemy technique of the Xinglin School can heal the hidden injuries incurred during the practice. And Elder Sun's flying needle technique is the most superb in the entire Xinglin School."

As spiritual energy is exhausted, various sects are actively seeking other methods of cultivation.

In the process of exploration, you will suffer some injuries to a greater or lesser extent, and these injuries cannot be cured by ordinary doctors.

Now it is Xinglin Sect’s turn to take action!

So even though they are a famous weak sect, no one dares to offend them easily.

"Then we have to get on good terms with this sect that specializes in making meatballs." Yan Fei has quickly decided on his strategy for making Sheniu.

The first one in sequence is the Xinglin School.

"Big Brother, what about the other two elders? Which sects are they from?" Qian Lai and Jin Bao also looked curious.

Their respective masters are just a bystander, and the two of them are even more soy sauce than the bystander.

Although he was given a quota every year, he had never even been to the Xuanmen Market. He just sold things in the hotels under the Xuanmen umbrella.

Later, after their master passed away, the two of them struggled for survival all year round and had neither the time nor the ability to participate in Xuanmen events.

"The other two elders have no sect or faction." He had heard this from his grandfather and fellow apprentices, so he didn't know much either. "The other two are the supreme elders of the Xuanmen Alliance, two foundation-building cultivators, but they haven't appeared in public for a long time. It is said that both elders will appear at this Xuanmen event, and they are likely to accept disciples."

Song Tang had heard about this from Juechen a long time ago.

She came to the Xuanmen event this time for two reasons: firstly, to get a feel for the entire Xuanmen's background, and secondly, to meet the legendary foundation-building cultivator.

A foundation-building monk can usually live to one hundred and fifty to two hundred years old, and this is in the presence of spiritual energy.

It has been nearly a hundred years since the spiritual energy was exhausted. Even a hundred years ago, they were all rare geniuses in a century and had established their foundation in their twenties.

So how did they practice in the hundred years without spiritual energy?

As for the possibility of not practicing, it basically does not exist.

If you don't practice, and only rely on the spiritual energy in your body to survive, then your realm will quickly decline. In less than a hundred years, you will fall back to the level of an ordinary person, and naturally you won't be alive now!

When Song Tang first met Old Bai, he felt something was strange because there was indeed spiritual energy in his body.

According to Old Bai’s age, he was only ten years old a hundred years ago. Did he enter the Qi training stage at the age of ten?

Song Tang could understand the occasional appearance of one or two geniuses, but it would be strange if geniuses appeared one after another and happened to be discovered by Xuanmen.

Coupled with the previous appearance of the Hidden Spirit Sect, Song Tang had a vague suspicion that something was not good.

"Master, it's time to form a team." Yan Fei called Song Tang several times, but Song Tang did not respond.

I had no choice but to gently push her shoulder and said again: "It's time to form a team freely. Which sect should we team up with?"

He wanted to ask Song Tang why he suddenly looked so serious, but at this time all the sects around were busy forming teams, so Yan Fei swallowed the question.

The first round of competition is a battle between sects. You can choose to participate as a single sect, or you can participate by forming a free team.

"The first round is a team battle. Except for the team commander, everyone in the team can get the same points regardless of their performance. Therefore, the cooperation between the commander and the team members is particularly important."

Zhang Zhiqi once again took on the responsibility of popularizing science, but so far no one has taken the initiative to approach them to form a team.

It seems that the last incident at the Ascension Tower did offend several sects.

Although he was worried in his heart, he didn't mention it at all. "Each sect can send different numbers of people to participate in the Xuanmen Festival. The most can send ten people, and the least can only send one. So considering the coordination problem, some big sects will choose to form a team from their own sect."

Everyone followed Zhang Zhiqi's gaze and saw that the ten people from Taishang Taoist Temple were standing together in an orderly manner.

On the other hand, at the Yunyang Taoist Temple, there were not only people from the temple, but also two or three people wearing uniforms from other Taoist temples surrounding it.

"The Yunyang Taoist Temple has several small Taoist temples that are affiliated with it. In previous years, they also formed a team together."

While Zhang Zhiqi was giving a popular science lecture, many people at the Yunyang Taoist Temple looked at them with a half-smile on their face, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
