Chapter 356: Sensation

There were crowds of people around Beidou Academy, but at this moment the silent crowd became noisy because of this sentence.

Zhang Shengde frowned, this was totally out of plan. The issue of fairness has never been considered by practitioners. In other words, in this world of practice, the word 'fairness' has always been a decoration.

I don't think someone raised this question today.

But it's understandable when you think about it, because Zhang Hao said when he was recruiting students that he needed to be tested uniformly. And with such an opportunity, some 'troublemakers' will naturally try to seek a fairer (favorable) environment for their children.

But the parents of those wealthy families are not happy. The competition is already fierce, and if any restrictions are added, it will be too annoying.

Under such circumstances, the crowd split into two factions almost instantly and began to quarrel.

Zhang Hao flew up slowly and roared, "Quiet!"

The cultivation base of the Golden Core Stage is already good, and the voice spreads mightily.

Zhang Hao opened his mouth, and the lower part quickly calmed down. Then Zhang Hao looked at the person who spoke just now, and said in a cold voice: "Tell me, how can it be considered fair?"

"This..." Feeling Zhang Hao's attitude, this person felt his scalp tingling, but he still said forcefully: "I think certain methods should be adopted to eliminate the gap between the children of different classes as much as possible. Only in this way can we select True genius!"

"Oh... the idea sounds good, so what method do you use?"

"This... this... How about the points system? For tasks of the same difficulty, for ordinary families, more calculations are required."

As soon as these words came out, there was chaos and noise again.

"Quiet!" Zhang Hao roared, "If you make any noise, get out!"

Only then did everyone quiet down again.

Zhang Hao looked at the man and smiled coldly, "What you said has some truth. But I'll just ask: Why!"

"This...is as fair as possible."

"Hehe..." Zhang Hao smiled, raised his head slightly, looked around, and said in a high-pitched and cold voice:

"Fairness, what is fairness! When the rain is pouring and you are hiding at home chatting and playing cards, the sailors of Dayang Group are advancing through the wind and rain, looking for unknown hope on the rolling green sea of ​​death.

Lightning, thunder, and rough seas make it impossible to see the sun; there are even sea monsters circling in the sea, waiting for an opportunity to kill. The sailors dare not close their eyes for several days, because they are afraid that if they close their eyes, they will never have a chance to open them again.

When you are walking in the sun, when you are arguing with your neighbors, the engineers of Dayang Group are working day and night.

The engineers and craftsmen at the shipbuilding base have not had a rest for half a year. We spend every day in the sound of steel knocking. When you are tired, you can meditate and practice on the spot. If you have a little energy, you can study and study. When you have enough energy, you can start doing exercises.

Hammers made of steel can consume an average of three hammers per person per month!

When you are satisfied with three meals a day, the soldiers of the Dayang Group are training, practicing, and preparing for the battlefield at any time.

You demand fairness. I want to ask, why do you demand fairness!

Those who give silently take out their legal income to raise their children, shouldn't they?

Those who don't want to accept it can leave now, no one is stopping you. Otherwise, just stay with me honestly! "

Tens of thousands of people were silent, but this time everyone's mood has completely changed.

Only then did Zhang Hao say to Zhang Shengde: "Father, things are almost done. We can start now."

Zhang Shengde sighed and nodded. When Zhang Haofei got off, Zhang Shengde said: "After discussion, Beidou Academy adopts a completely free method. As long as it is from the Qixia Kingdom, it is free!"

The atmosphere suddenly became active.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao smiled faintly. In fact, the college is to train talents for itself, and the fees are asking for trouble - anyway, Dayang Group can afford these fees now. The reason why they mentioned the possible charges outside Ninghe County was to let them learn to be grateful and remember the benefits of the Zhang family and the Dayang Group. Only in this way can we win people's hearts.

Let them know that it is not easy, so that they can be grateful.

Zhang Shengde continued: "Attention all students, the test will start soon.

From the entrance of the college to the back mountain, a formation has been arranged, and everyone can hear the rules clearly.

Entering the formation, you can't use true energy, magic weapons, etc., and can only move forward with physical strength. In the process of moving forward, you will encounter some small interesting games, including counting, building blocks, small mazes, single-plank bridges, and various small traps.

You can choose to play the game, or you can choose to move forward. There are points for everything, and we will eventually pick the top 1,000 based on points and performance, 'and' those who make it to the finish line.

Finally, we will select 450 best seeds from among the 1,000 candidates. The 50 best are then selected from the remaining 550. A total of 500 students were admitted.

The first pass screens the time until sunset. The time is set at... 18 o'clock in the afternoon. It's 9:00 a.m., and you have 9 hours, which is plenty of time, so don't worry.

Start now. "

…………

However, when Dugu Junjie led the battleship to the south again, he encountered that cunning and timid mirage again. After secretly causing trouble in the sea a few times, the mirage dragon was finally greeted by depth charges a few times, and ran away in despair again.

After that, all the way was safe. When the warship arrived at the Skull River again, there was already a bit of heat wave here in the Taotu Continent. Compared with the coldness in the north when it set off, it was already a bit hot and unbearable. The heat here has an indescribable dryness, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

But when he returned to the Skull River again, a small city had already appeared on the bank of the Skull River. Here, a port was actually built: Skeleton Port!

Hmm, very creepy name.

But when the battleship arrived here, there was actually fighting again. This time, the Red Lotus Cult was not fighting the Holy Fire Cult in the north, but the sea monsters.

From a long distance, I saw sea monsters attacking the land frantically, and the small city was already shattered.

The attack of the sea monsters is like flooding the golden mountain; occasionally black waves can be seen rolling, and the mountain crumbles like a clay pot.

As for the Red Lotus Sect, under the leadership of Baixiang, the guardian of the left, they continued to kill a large number of sea monsters and obtained rich resources. From time to time, flame formations thousands of meters in size could be seen falling down, and pieces of sea monsters turned into grilled fish fillets.

Looking at the broken coast, this kind of battle has probably lasted for a long time.

When the battleship appeared, Hua Baixiang flew excitedly from a long distance, driving the flame phoenix along the way, burning half the sky red, and hurriedly landed on the bow of the Iron Duke, but looked at the white painted Pearl next to it.

The large characters on the side of the Mingzhu ship milled out by a lathe are very eye-catching.

When we met, Dugu Junjie introduced Liu Dingshan; Liu Dingshan nodded coolly and stood aside without speaking.

Hua Baixiang turned around and chuckled, "Where's Zhang Hao? Isn't this kid afraid to come over?"

Dugu Junjie smiled wryly, that is our president, he is very busy, and he was spanked last time, how dare he come here. Dugu Junjie changed the subject: "Did you take the initiative to hunt and kill sea monsters?"

"Yeah, I think you can all sail in the open sea, I think it's nothing. Just build a port here. I don't want this sea monster to come and eat people, so we went to the sea to catch a few dragons or something. I don't want to It made the whole sea boil.

Hmph, my Red Lotus Sect is not a persimmon either. Although these sea monsters are powerful, their brains are not very good. As long as it is brought to the ground, it is a food delivery!

In the past two months, we have acquired a mountain of sea monsters.

Now the sea monsters have almost stopped. A month ago was the craziest. But thanks to your black iron and steel, if it weren't for these excellent materials, we would have suffered a lot. "

Hua Baixiang seemed very excited, pointing to the Mingzhu battleship next to her, "This battleship is beautiful!"

"This is the car of our Empress."

"Empress?" Hua Baixiang became interested in an instant, "By the way, I didn't have a good conversation with you in the rush last time. How about visiting our holy mountain this time? Our leader really hopes to communicate with you face to face."

Dugu Junjie nodded and smiled: "That's no problem. We also want to have an in-depth exchange this time. This time we also brought a lot of medicinal materials needed by your education, as well as a large amount of elixir, black iron, etc. We also brought Artillery and basic industrial technology.

This time, let's talk about it. "

"Can industrial technology build ships?" Hua Baixiang kept her eyes on the Pearl. After hearing that this warship is the "Queen's Car", Hua Baixiang took it seriously.

Dugu Junjie smiled: "You can mass-produce black iron. As for whether you can build ships, it depends on your ability. But I believe that as long as there is a large amount of black iron, your religion will soon have its own steel battleship."

Hua Baixiang was very satisfied with Dugu Junjie's attitude, and invited the battleship into the Skull River while talking. I originally wanted to build a port here, but now it seems that the port is unusable and can only continue to enter the river.

The sea monsters blocking the estuary were quickly picked up by the artillery. The battleship easily entered the river.

But as soon as he entered the Skeleton River, Dugu Junjie frowned: "This river...seems to have dropped a lot? At least one-third less!"

"It's still the dry season in Taotu Continent. The river will not rise until the rainy season. During the rainy season, the river is more than double what you saw last time!

We have only two seasons here, rainy season and dry season.

Almost every April and May enters the rainy season, which can last until September. It rained almost half of the time, sometimes every day. From September to April and May is the dry season. Hardly a drop of rain fell. "

"Oh..." Dugu Junjie's eyes widened, looking at the strange world. Is this the world of magic? It really is magical enough!

But Zhao Dahe who was following him didn't think so. He pondered, whether different theories of seasons and the circle of the earth can be unified?

The battleship continued to advance, but this time it did not advance too far. It only stopped when it came to the lake where the snapping turtle was hunted last time. There is already a small city here.

A large number of hunted sea monsters were dealt with here, and a large number of masters of the Red Lotus Sect gathered here.

Dugu Junjie, Liu Dingshan and others looked at the mountains of sea monsters and were deeply moved. The Red Lotus Sect really deserves to be a holy place—although it is only half of that of the Tiandu Sect, it is still a holy place after all.

A holy place with enough power and depth to drag down the sea monsters; this is a power that Qixia Kingdom can't match for the time being.

But Dugu Junjie didn't know that when three steel battleships appeared in this lake, it caused a shock.

A master flew out, came to the bow of the ship, looked at Hua Baixiang, and said in shock: "Hua Hufa, is this the steel battleship you mentioned?"

"This is Lan Baihong, the master of our Artifact Refining Hall!" Hua Baixiang introduced to Dugu Junjie and Liu Dingshan, and then turned her head and said to Lan Baihong, "Master Lan, the steel battleship you have been looking forward to every day and night is here! , and one more Pearl.

This time, Dayang Group has brought black iron smelting technology and technicians as agreed, and will assist us in building a black iron factory. "

"Oh... that's great!" Lan Baihong was overjoyed with excitement.

Seeing Lan Baihong's performance, Dugu Junjie also showed a bright smile - it seems that the price can be raised on the ground. Although there is a special person in charge of the negotiation, it does not prevent Dugu Junjie from offering opinions.

It's a pity that Hua Baixiang and Lan Baihong, who were temporarily excited, didn't notice Dugu Junjie's meaningful smile.

But no matter what, compared to the obscurity last time, too many people from the Red Lotus Sect saw the Iron Battleship this time!

It's really a ship made of iron, a steel battleship that can cross the open sea!

This time, the battleship quickly caused a huge commotion in the Red Lotus Sect. The goods brought by the battleship also caused a sensation for the Red Lotus Sect—they no longer have to accept the exploitation of the inland holy land.

The battleship stops here, and the transaction begins.

Because there are too many unfamiliar commodities, medicinal materials, spiritual materials, etc., the pricing is very cumbersome. But this does not affect everyone's enthusiasm.

After more than ten days of discussions, the transaction officially started. Tons of excellent black iron and steel were exported; a large number of pills from the gas refining period and many pills from the foundation building period were also moved out in boxes.

There are also medicinal materials unique to the Northern Fertile Continent, some special spiritual materials, etc., all of which are moved down in boxes.

And the medicinal materials, unique spiritual materials, etc. of the Red Lotus Sect, and even the demon pills, pearls, etc. just obtained from the sea monsters, were also packed into the battleship.

Both parties in the transaction were excited from ear to ear. Of course, there are occasional voices of heated bargaining, but this only makes the atmosphere of the transaction more intense.

During this time, Dayang Group's engineers also followed Hua Baixiang to observe several black iron mines, and finally selected the location. Prepare to guide the construction of the black iron factory.

And the artillery carried on the battleship was finally supported by masters such as Lan Baihong, and flew all the way to the Holy Land of the Red Lotus Sect, Flame Mountain. Dugu Junjie and others also followed to the Holy Land of the Red Lotus Sect.

From afar, I saw a huge flaming lotus on the top of the mountain, almost hundreds of meters in flames, burning crazily! The whole sky is reflected red!

The flame lotus is really a lotus composed of flames. Each petal seems to be composed of flames, trembling slightly, and rising like flames.

Under the flame lotus, there seemed to be an erupting volcano, but the power of the volcano was sucked away by the flame lotus. The volcano has become a receiver and a source of energy.

Looking at the blazing flame lotus from afar, one feels a faint restlessness and irritability, as if some kind of anger has entered the body.

Dugu Junjie, Liu Dingshan, Swordsmen, Zhao Dahe and others were shocked immediately. Such a spectacle, from ancient times to the present.

"This is the red lotus of the Nine Earths!" Lan Baihong was a little proud, "This is the most precious treasure of the Tiandu School. It is said that in ancient times, the fire lotus seeds fell from the sky and landed on Tiandu Peak. They were obtained by the founder of Tiandu Mountain.

Before the red lotus of the nine lands had grown, the ancestor refined it and put it into the mark. Only in this way can we unworthy descendants control the mighty Nine Earth Red Lotus. "

Liu Dingshan watched silently, and sighed for a while: "These red lotuses from the Nine Earths can destroy the stage of transformation!"

"The Daoist has good eyesight. But the price of destroying the God Transformation Period is too heavy. We will not use it unless we have to."

Liu Dingshan nodded, and sighed again: "It is said that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Today is an eye-opener. I always thought that the nine-ground red lotus was just a treasure. But I didn't expect it to be such a holy thing!"

"It's a pity that the sacred fire that was bred by the red lotus of the Nine Lands for thousands of years was lost, and was snatched away by the traitors in the north." Lan Baihong sighed.

(Third watch, busy until midnight. Dazhang, ask for a monthly ticket)
