Another old man said, "Actually, everyone understands that as a monk, what is the ultimate purpose of being close to the core of power!"

"Yes, everyone understands, you and I understand very well, the closer you get to the core of power, the richer the cultivation resources you get. ”

"Even if the Sky Tribulation Sword can become a general stationed on the border, it is at most a general, and he has been stationed in the border for most of his life, and there must be some distance from the core of power. ”

"The monks of the Distraction Period tried their best to break through to the Heaven-Defying Nirvana Realm, but in fact, the Heaven-Defying Nirvana Divine Conjunction Period Monks, why didn't they do their best to break through to the Mahayana Stage?"

"As long as the monk has not reached the peak of cultivation, he will not be satisfied, and he will have desires. And what can satisfy the monk's maximum desire is the core of imperial power. ”

"The core of imperial power, mastering the resources of the world, is innumerable, and the mysteries are endless. And the Thunder Lion Academy is a shortcut to get close to the core of imperial power. ”

"It's just a shortcut, it's too hard to get into. I'm afraid that only peak powerhouses such as the Empty Sword and Mu Rongguang have a glimmer of hope. ”

"Yes, looking at it, those pillar bosses, pillar bosses, and bureaucrats of the four courts, seem to be close to the core of imperial power, but in fact they are still hovering on the edge of imperial power, and they are just the specific executors of imperial power. ”

"People who are really at the core of the imperial power, they spend most of their time on cultivation, instead of being busy dealing with the affairs of the imperial kingdom all day long. ”

"However, as far as the old man knows, even if he enters the Thunder Lion Academy, it does not mean that everyone can get close to the core of imperial power. Only the Tianjiao of the Tianjiao can get close to that core. ”

"The water of the imperial kingdom is very deep, very deep!"

"Okay, it's not appropriate to talk too much here, the competition is about to open, and the contestants are coming one after another, I'll wait and see what happens!"

“......”

Yan Lan spread out his soul power and listened to the discussions of the cultivators around him.

Probably because this place is a secret place of the imperial state, the cultivators have discussed everything to the end, and they have not said much useful information.

Then, one powerful aura after another came one after another.

Most of these contestants will show off some prestige, probably to cause some psychological pressure on the rest of the contestants.

Yan Lan sensed one strong aura after another, listening to the discussions of the cultivators around him, without the slightest fluctuation.

For this competition, Yan Lan will not have any pressure at all.

This is also the easiest one that Yan Lan has experienced among countless tests, after all, the gap in strength this time is too big.

However, Yan Lan clearly sensed the relatives and friends beside him, and in his pretending relaxed look, he hid the solemnity that he didn't dare to show.

Especially when they saw one contestant after another, entering this space with extraordinary majesty, their uneasiness was even stronger.

Only Zilin, who acted without pressure, kept looking around in Ziyi's arms, very curious about the surroundings.

The forbidden life attack slowly came to Yan Lan's side, and said: "Yan Lan, don't be nervous, don't be desperate, this is just an enrollment competition, not a fate." ”

Yan Lan smiled: "Lord Domain, I see that you are even more nervous than me. ”

The forbidden life attack frowned: "You kid, you are facing so much pressure, but you are calmer than us." ”

Yan Lan shook his head and said, "I'm used to bumps and bumps. What should come will always come, and when it comes, it will be dealt with seriously. ”

Forbidden Life Attack Nodding and said: "Yes, maybe it is because you have always been in front of the mountain and your face has not changed, so sometimes, when we encounter a lot of tricky things, we will even rely on you a little." This point once made me feel incredible, and then after getting along with you for a long time, I found that you have valuable qualities that others are incomparable, brave to take responsibility, calm, hard work, and take care of others. ”

Yan Lan shrugged his eyebrows and said, "It's rare to hear the domain lord praise me so presumptuously. ”

Forbidden Life Attack Extinguishing smiled: "I've praised you a lot of things before, but you haven't heard it." They have praised you even more than I have. ”

Yan Lan smiled, feeling warm in her heart.

He once thought that if he fell into this world, away from his father, Sister Ling Yu, and many other clansmen, he would be extremely desolate.

Later, I experienced Qingxuan, Wuse, Ziyi, and the people of Tiangangmen, and met the barefoot old ghost, and met the group of people behind me.

However, friendship is never born out of nowhere, and it always becomes tacit in long-term contact and running-in.

That's why Yan Lan won't be so lonely.

Before the start of the competition, a large number of monks stood on the six trap beasts.

Yan Lan's spiritual sense swept and found that there were indeed less than 100,000 people.

Yan Lan saw that these cultivators who came to watch the battle were basically dignitaries, or their relatives and friends, and there were no idle people.

It seems that if you want to enter here, you do need a high level of capital.

Yan Lan calculated, probably only the emperors of the three alliances, the elders of the major sects, the elders of various states and states, and the figures above the city lord were qualified to come to watch the battle.

The cultivators were still talking.

Yan Lan turned around and asked, "Old Dusk Zhu, last time Wang Zhan, you were the host. Who will host this competition?"

Twilight Chengxue shook her head and said, "The old man doesn't know this, but the old man thinks that it will probably be the domain master." After all, in the past, the hosts of the enrollment competition of Lei Lion Academy have been presided over by domain masters, as well as by Dazhu elders, and by senior officials of the Four Academies, which have never been fixed. ”

Yan Lan frowned and said, "This host is still changing?"

Forbidden Life Attack Extinguishing smiled: "In fact, the seemingly random rotation has a lot of articles behind it. This time, it is definitely not the master who is presiding over the competition, because the master has never received any notice before, not to mention that the master has just taken office, and he was only a small master of Wuzhou before, and his qualifications and prestige are not enough. So, this master is probably the most weightless domain master in history. ”

Twilight Chengxue, Yu Wusheng and the others shook their heads and smiled, in fact, it was true, and they were not easy to refute the words of the forbidden life attack.

Ferry Haidao: "No way, now, the central imperial power is constantly weakening the power of the domain lord and the state lord, but the power of the border soldiers is constantly increasing. It can be seen from this that the central imperial power was worried that the generals stationed in the border areas would not have much power and would find it difficult for them to cooperate with each other to resist the tide of beasts, and that the bureaucrats at all levels in the country would be too powerful and would have to support their own troops and be difficult to control. ”

Chu Ren said wildly: "This reflects a serious fact, that is, the crisis in the frontier is getting bigger and bigger, and the imperial power is afraid that the frontier will be in chaos, and the country will also be in chaos." Therefore, the power of the internal bureaucracy was gradually weakened and the power of the soldiers stationed in the border area was strengthened, which in fact conveyed a kind of goodwill to the soldiers stationed in the border. ”

Yan Lan frowned slightly: "I didn't expect that there was still this deep meaning, I didn't realize it, it seems that the depth of knowledge is indeed related to experience." I still need to learn a lot from my predecessors. ”
