Chapter Seventy-Four: The Third Task [Third Update]

Nanshan Residence.

Nan Baicheng lay on a rattan chair, looking at the sky attentively, and the man in black stood behind him with his hands down, without saying a word.

After a long time, Nan Baicheng said, "Say it." ”

The man in black bowed down and replied, "Tang robbed the Lingtai Pavilion, and Lady Shui recovered all the arrears, but the Wei family gave him some additional money. He bought purple electric boots, a fire crow ring, and four magic talismans, and also retrieved the Dry Wind Bead. ”

It seems that he is desperate, and he has to win all three tasks before he is willing. Nanbaicheng said leisurely: "Good boy, I already know what I mean, and I dare to do this, just with this courage, it is convincing." If he wants to be my junior brother, I can welcome him in the southern hundred cities, but he has to give it to that Wei Tianchong...... Damn!"

"Actually......" The man in black hesitated slightly, and then stopped.

Nan Baicheng has said: "What do you want to say?"

Only then did the man in black say: "For thousands of years, the vast majority of the selection of true legends within the faction has been carried out in the form of task assessment, without looking at the talent and achievements of the students. The reason why this is so is to a large extent to test the comprehensive ability of students, and the so-called application of what they have learned is so. The so-called comprehensive ability actually includes talent, family background, temperament, brain, and even luck. ”

"Yes, go on. Nan Baicheng closed his eyes and said. The man in black was right, God can give you peerless cultivation qualifications, and you can also give him endless cultivation resources, why is the Nine Turns of the Jade Gate a talent, and everyone has to be a foreign object?

In the eyes of practitioners, the process is meaningless, and the result is the most important thing.

In the world of cultivators, there is only success and failure.

Because of this, in the eyes of the Moon Washing Sect, the nine turns of the Jade Gate, and everyone from all backgrounds, are just part of the innate abilities that the students have.

Whoever has the greatest value and whose role is high, arguing is useless, and it is necessary to play it yourself.

The battle for the true biography is based on this all-round ability, and the hero is only judged by the result, otherwise why be so troublesome?

The man in black had already continued: "Although Wei Tianchong relied on the help of the servant learning Tang Tribulation, the servant learning can also be regarded as one of his resources. Since my Moon Washing Sect can see my family background as a talent, why can't I ......?"

"What do you mean is that since Tang Zheng is Wei Tianchong's servant, he might as well be regarded as a part of Wei Tianchong's strength, the embodiment of his comprehensive ability, just like his puppet. If the puppet is strong, he is naturally the master strong, so there is no need to block him from the door?"

"Subordinates are foolish. ”

Nan Baicheng snorted: "It's indeed foolish, self-righteous, and wishful thinking!"

"Please give me some advice!"

Nan Baicheng has said leisurely: "Actually, what you said is not unreasonable, Tang Zheng, as a servant of Wei Tianchong and a loyal servant, can indeed be regarded as part of Wei Tianchong's strength. The world of cultivating immortals is cruel and realistic, as long as you have the ability, whether this ability is reflected in your subordinates or yourself, it doesn't matter. The problem is that not everything in the world can be done in a reasonable way. You must know that I am not doing things for the axioms of the world, but for the master, and the teacher's preferences are the most important!"

As soon as these words came out, the man in black immediately woke up.

Changfeng Zhenren is not a simple person, as the head of the Moon Washing Sect, one of the nineteen heavenly leaders of the Moon Washing Sect, the pinnacle of the real people, the status is comparable to the true monarch in the scattered cultivation, the average real person has to stand aside when he sees him, and his will is definitely not trivial.

Nanbaicheng is well versed in the way of service, and he knows that it is always more meaningful to figure out the meaning of the Tao than to explore the truth.

Yan Changfeng was born poor since he was a child, and his talent is average, but this person is resolute, and he doesn't know how many bloody battles he has experienced all the way to the avenue, and there is also the No. 1 "Blood Bath Changfeng", which can be seen as his person.

A person's way of success is often the way he selects talents.

Brave, tenacious, and not giving up, he is a good seedling in his eyes, a real talent, compared to this temperament, natural resources and other conditions have to rely on the side to fight.

Back then, Nanbaicheng was faced with Shi Wunian's coercion and refused to retreat, and it was in line with Yan Changfeng's temperament that he would officially accept him as a disciple.

And what about Wei Tianchong?

Greedy for life and afraid of death, cowering, timid and cowardly, looking forward and backward, it can be said that he is extremely weak in temperament, Yan Changfeng has to be able to like this disciple to be called a strange thing, so the statement that the man in black said "Tang Zheng can also be regarded as a part of Wei Tianchong's strength" cannot be established here in Yan Chengfeng.

Knowing this at this moment, the man in black hurriedly said: "It's the ignorance of his subordinates, in this case, this most difficult task competition must not let Wei Tianchong succeed again!"

"It's good that you know the way, so what can you do to solve it?"

The man in black thought for a while and said, "The reason why Wei Tianchong was able to succeed twice was completely due to Tang Tribulation. And the reason why Tang Tribulation was able to play a role was actually related to the task we gave before. In both missions, whoever hands it in wins. This makes the person who finally completes the task not necessarily the person who contributes the most, which gives Tang Zheng room to play. Originally, the purpose of this practice was to compete with the comprehensive strength of the students, so that their family background, resources, brains and other conditions could also play a role, but because of the relationship between Tang Zheng, Wei Tianchong benefited from it. In my opinion, if you want Wei Tianchong to fail, you must completely cut Tang Zheng out of Wei Tianchong's strength. In fact, there is no return to the valley mission, and we do the same, but we don't do it enough. ”

"What do you mean......"

"The next task must not be transferable, and the student must rely on himself to complete it. ”

Nan Baicheng nodded: "That's right, it can only be like this now, but it's not easy to find such a task." ”

He sighed deeply as he spoke.

In addition to maximizing the test of students' comprehensive strength, the task of using specific things such as human heads and red lotus as victory conditions is that it is simple.

Due to the large number of students participating, overly complex tasks can lead to increased difficulty in assessment, vague judgment criteria, and even unfair performance.

If, as the man in black said, the third task must be completed by hand to win, things are complicated.

First of all, the winning criterion of the task cannot be a specific item, otherwise it will be difficult to define who is the winner in the competition.

It's like the Red Lotus dispute, An Rumeng was the first to meet the Red Lotus, then Tang Zheng, and then Qi Shaoming, in this process, no one really owns it, so it is impossible to determine the winner. However, if it is the first to touch the target as a victory, it is too child's play, so it can only be conditioned on the victory of the last owner.

The second is that killing cannot be a condition for victory.

In the same way, if the mission of No Return Valley was conditional on killing the Frost Elves, then when the battle with the Frost Elves was made, many students would not compete with each other, but would attack together. When the time comes, the swords will be together, the spells will be released indiscriminately, and she will be killed after a group bombardment, who will kill her?

The basic criteria for the assessment are: the judgment conditions must be clear and unambiguous, and the answers must be unique in order to be convincing.

The third is that the mandate must be existing.

The Moon Washing Sect will not specially design a scene for everyone to test for the sake of a true legend, the cost is too high, and it will only choose from the existing tasks to meet the needs of assessment and completion of tasks at the same time.

Fourth, the mission must be able to meet the needs of thousands of students at the same time, and it must also be the same goal. If it is a decentralized target, there will inevitably be a variety of unfair situations, which are also unfair assessments.

The last thing is that the mission must be adversarial. The mission of true transmission is contested, so there must be confrontation between students. And if there is confrontation, there must be contact, and it is precisely because of this that even the Southern Hundred Cities cannot completely separate Tang Zheng and Wei Tianchong, they can only disperse, but they cannot prevent the gathering.

All kinds of constraints make it not so easy to come out of the true transmission task. It's like students are worried about coping with every big exam, but they often ignore that the examiners who come out with the exam questions are also scratching their ears and cheeks and racking their brains before the big exam.

Hearing Nan Baicheng say this at this moment, the man in black laughed: "If it is in the territory of Wenxin, it is indeed not easy to find." ”

"En?" Nan Baicheng was stunned for a moment: "You mean ......"

"Wind Demon Island. ”

"Wind Demon Island?" Nan Baicheng's eyes immediately lit up, but it was random but dimmed: "Wind Demon Island is a qualified place, but it is the territory of the End of the World. ”

"Let's lease it. Feng Qingyu is a good material for cultivating wind system techniques, and it just so happens that there has been a shortage of Feng Qingyu in the faction recently, so I was planning to find Tianya Haige to buy a batch. Feng Qingyu is not easy to get, we let the students to collect, according to the price of the money, the end of the world can save some manpower, only ask for it, if you talk about it well, maybe it can be cheaper. In this way, not only did he assess the students, complete the task, but also save some resources for Perry, and he could also make friends with the end of the world. ”

"But the winning criterion can no longer be conditional on Feng Qingyu!"

"That's nature. With the Nine Palaces Heart Ring as the winning condition, whoever can be the first to reach the Nine Palaces, enter the Tianxin Ring, and touch the Haixin Stone will be the winner. As for the wind green jade, set a separate standard, and calculate the price according to the jade. If you turn in the most wind jade, you can get some additional rewards. With Wei Tianchong's ability, it is impossible for him to be the first to enter the Nine Palace Heart Ring, if Tang Zheng is smart, instead of bothering in vain, it is better to take the opportunity to find a few more pieces of Feng Qingyu and reap real profits, this is to give him a chance, but also to give us a chance. ”

"Hinder it with difficulty, lure it with profit...... It's okay to think about it. Nan Baicheng thought about it carefully, nodded and agreed with the man in black's statement: "But Tang Zheng, I think he is resolute, and he is not a person who can be easily shaken by small profits. In case he is not tempted, it will still be a problem. ”

"Then ask the people of the Heavenly End Pavilion to do some help and do a little bit in the Nine Palaces Lost Heaven Array. ”

"Good idea!" Nan Baicheng nodded repeatedly: "If I'm not mistaken, Wind Demon Island is now presided over by Ji Wuyi of the Tianya Sea Pavilion. I don't have much friendship with this person, but I remember that he and Lin Shangyun in the faction had several experiences of working together to fight the enemy, and Lin Shangyun had a good relationship with the third senior brother. It seems that I have to ask the third senior brother to help with the item...... Alas, this damn Tang Tribulation, just because of him, how many people do I ask to help with errands!"

Speaking of this, Nanbaicheng was also annoyed.

He was both appreciative and resentful of Tang Zheng, and his mood was extremely complicated.

Thinking about it was not enough, Nan Baicheng said again: "There are too many relationships with To, and there are always some unreliable. This is the last task, and no matter what, there is no room for error. That's it, beggar, you go on this trip to Wind Demon Island. ”

"I'm going too?" The man in black was taken aback: "My lord, I'm not a student." And if I make a move, if I am discovered, it will really confirm your reputation for influencing the fairness of the competition!"

Nan Baicheng said in a deep voice: "I will help you solve the matter of identity, and in the name of overseer, let Ji Wuyi send you in." As for the reputation ......"

The mayor of Nanbai City took a breath: "As long as you don't disappoint your master, what is a little prestige? Besides...... Can't you fucking not let them find out?"

Speaking of this, Nanbaicheng almost roared.

The black-clothed man was in his heart, and he knew that the southern hundred cities of Dao Dao were also out of the way, so he hurriedly bowed down and replied: "Yes, the subordinates will do their best, and they will die!"

"I don't want you to die, I just want you to stop Wei Tianchong from being the first to enter the Nine Palace Heart Ring!"
