In human towns, there is a functional building that is necessary, but in the old era that Zheng Li once experienced, it was a noun that had disappeared in history.

Arena, or Colosseum.

Originally, one of the six cities in the central region, the number one arena was the dream arena of Digital City. In which you can not only feel almost real death, but also consume your psychic energy in the dream. After you go out, you still have full psychic energy. This means that you can train high-intensity death battles in a short period of time, and you don’t have to worry about losing anything.

The time arena in Shiqiancheng, the life and death experienced by him is more "real", but the spiritual energy is consumed, and the damage to the spiritual blade and the artificial spiritual blade is even more irreversible.

But now, the arena of Shiqian City is undoubtedly the first arena. If it weren't for some political factors, the Sword Saint Tournament would only be held where every triennial.

After all, although the digital city to the Twin Cities means a significant increase in the overall national strength and also means the liberation of the "Prophet" system, then the derived dream system will naturally be gone.

Don’t underestimate this seemingly slight change, and don’t ignore the political and economic value of the Triennial Sword Saint Competition. Practical combat has always been the first way for Sword Master to improve. You can experience life and death actual combat on weekdays, which can not only accelerate the growth of Sword Master, but also attract more Sword Masters to move and settle.

In politics, we can refer to the old era. If every Olympic Games were held by a country, all the videos and live broadcasts would play its latest status, and a little bit of the progress of the city would be promoted to the border. As we all know, the city was not the capital, which was better than the capital.

Under the accumulated propaganda, as long as urban construction does not collapse, the country will become the political and economic center in people's minds.

Shi Qiancheng stood at the intersection of history. Before, about a quarter of the Sword Saint Competition was reported on his side. Digital City had at least one-third of the remaining points, and the other four cities were evenly divided. But in fact, in terms of the degree of excitement, the people's love, the participating sword master's own evaluation, and the economic effects, the other four cities were far inferior to the two cities.

After all, the real blade duel is a huge blood gap. Whether it is life or death affects not only the audience's desires, but also directly affects the state of both parties in battle.

But when both sides of the showdown have to show mercy, it would be nice to use four or five points if they were very strong. Sometimes, the bloody twelve-point death battle between the two cities was exciting.

After the fall of Digital City, although Twin Cities took over its legacy in all aspects, this Dream Arena cannot be taken over, which means that the only city that can report the "Death Fighting Sword Saint Tournament" is Shi Qiancheng.

The senior executives of each city can see this situation very clearly, and even have a record in their hearts, calculating how much economic, political and prestige gains each report will bring to Shiqiancheng. Will this continue to lead to the gradual imbalance of the internal forces of the Revival Alliance.

At the same time, the magical strategic weapon of "time retreat" will inevitably become a desire, longing and surprise for viewers.

Every Sword Saint Tournament will become an exhibition of Shiqiancheng's powerful strategic weapons. This brings the centripetal force and talent attraction in the city, especially the war pressure in the other five cities is relatively high. In the previous period of Shiqiancheng, when Shiqiancheng was the most peaceful city, human beings yearn for a peaceful and comfortable life, and a large number of and continuous immigration is expected.

Internal competition among major cities, including but not limited to competition at the human resources, resources, and technology levels, people are always the foundation. When the total cake is limited, if you eat more, it means I eat less.

Therefore, when Digital City lost the "death fight venue", even though Shiqian City became the only choice, it still couldn't get the right to host it.

Don’t say good words like humility, this kind of official words sounds nice, but when a city is an independent political subject, it is a pure interest institution. Human favors may exist, but they are an available resource in themselves. How can you take the initiative to give up your long-term and huge interests?

However, among the Revival Alliance formed by the six cities, Shi Qiancheng is indeed the youngest and weakest, which means that the right to speak is low. In the original iron-core ally Twin City, Xiujiang City, is not good if it doesn't interfere with Shi Qian's sword behind his back in the battle for such political resources. How could it be possible to support him to get the right to hold it again and again?

Therefore, even if everyone knows that Shiqiancheng is the most suitable venue for the Sword Saint Competition, it is unlikely that the hosting rights of Shiqiancheng will be obtained in recent episodes. It is useless to be urgent. In fact, there is no need to be too anxious, nor too anxious.

The seemingly very confusing words are actually the current situation of Shi Qiancheng’s embarrassing identity as the “Prince”.

Considering that Shi Qiancheng has unique advantages in this regard, the contestants still complain about the actual sword master below. It is okay to do this once or twice, but as time goes by, as the resentment below becomes more and more unified, there will be a day when it is impossible to suppress it. It is only a matter of time before the hosting rights are permanently handed over to Shi Qiancheng.

But how long it will take depends on whether Shi Qiancheng is competing for himself and whether he can get more say.

In fact, this is just a microcosm of the identity of a "prince". As the city with the strongest strategic weapons in the six cities in the central region and as a recognized candidate for the "three major royal cities" in the East Continent, Shi Qiancheng's top potential is self-evident.

No one can be fooled by the city's top leaders these days. Naturally, it can be seen that as long as there is nothing unexpected happening in Shi Qiancheng, it is only a matter of time before the rise of Shi Qian. The future capital of the Revival Alliance is high probability of falling on Shi Qian, but now the five cities are now, how can we watch the weakest Shi Qian wait to ascend the throne?

Before ascending the throne, the prince was beaten up and siege was taken for granted. Even though Shi Qiancheng tried to keep a low profile, he was even willing to act as a "little brother" in all aspects. As the link of the Revival Alliance deepened, his potential gradually became a foundation, and he had begun to make efforts in the competition for talents and resources, and naturally he was warned by the cities.

This is a very normal phenomenon and a must-pass way for internal integration of a large force. However, when the city was really in trouble, the support from other cities came very quickly.

In the era of peace, in the period of development, full-strength struggle for survival resources, and in the period of war when encountering foreign enemies, they can leave behind the personal gains and make a living together. Competition and cooperation are always with each other. This distorted and reasonable main theme of the times is the result of the cruel racial competition in the arena of the Gods.

But even at this moment, there is still no less internal competition.

For example, Twin Cities and Shi Qiancheng had already had two rounds of quarrel about Pandora's ownership, and even Zheng Li was invited to be a "information introducer" and "witness" as a bargaining chip for the men to quarrel.

As Mayor Li and others pointed out before, Zheng Li's identity is quite subtle. After experiencing the Battle of Shuangqiu, he was in a sense the benefactor of the Twin Cities and was regarded as his own person. His hometown and origin are undoubtedly Shiqian people.

Being able to be regarded as one of his own by both sides at the same time is the root of his dispatch (extraordinary) to join the local Rangers, and it is also one of the main reasons for his previous distractions, but it is limited to the honeymoon cooperation period between both sides.

With the size of the two cities, three years was quite short, but with the initial completion of the "Great Highway" and the establishment of trade routes, the relationship between the two cities changed from good buddies to competitors without any gaps in the transformation of all this in advance, Zheng Li chose to retire early in the Rangers.

"During peaceful cooperation, it is naturally a good thing to be regarded as one of our own people by both sides. We can eat and use our connections. But if both sides are in a competitive period, the friction between the two sides will keep us speaking sooner or later. Do you want to experience it when it is wrong? Since we are all time-changing, such resources will sooner or later become simple property, so it is better to make a decision earlier. It is really too late to make a statement when both sides are not people and are both sides doubting their position at the same time."

Once, in an internal meeting, facing the personal arbitrary decision of everyone to "quit the legion", most of the cadres opposed it, and Zheng Li still found a way to convince them.

The development of the situation also proves how the decision was correct at that time.

As the population and resources flowed more frequently, the friction between them became increasingly intensified. Some people who stayed in the Rangers complained privately to Zheng Li that they felt that they were not human on both sides.

"I personally think that it is the luck of the entire human race that Miss Pandora is willing to join the human race, but she has indeed inherited the blood of the Zheng family. You can do DNA tests. In a sense, she is my personal blood, and my hometown is Shiqiancheng."

If loyalty is not absolute, it means absolute disloyalty.

The era of dividends that could have been gaining both ends has ended. This time, the senior executives of both sides have been asked to "evaluate" and "make suggestions". Zheng Li did not make the choice as most people expected, and he did not hesitate to make a choice.

"It's not my personal contribution, but her birth does have the causal relationship between our Shiqiancheng and my personal peace battle. According to the principle of spoils, we Shiqian people should also be "

"Okay, we get it, you can go down."

This is the Twin Cities. The conference room has many people and a high official position, so it is naturally the boss of the local Twin Cities.

The mayor opposite directly expressed his dissatisfaction, which was quite irregular, but he was the most here, so it was okay.

The report was interrupted, and Zheng Li shrugged, didn't care, so he turned around and left.

You can become a person on both sides on weekdays, but when both sides start to compete for important interests or even strategic resources, they still want to be a person on both sides, which is equivalent to offending both sides at the same time, which is to take the lead in the way of death.

Do you express neutrality? No one offends anyone from the clique? In the eyes of both parties who regard you as their own people, they betray your own camp.

If you want to be neutral and objective, you need enough strength to support and a fence-riding party who can take the neutral route must at least have it.

Now Zheng Li knows his weight and is not that stupid. He knows that as a shrimp, it is time to make a choice.

He chose Shiqiancheng without hesitation.

Sure enough, when he just walked out the door and got some cold eyes from some people, he received a text message on his watch, but he was still an acquaintance.

"Li Zhenjun (Mayor): It's a good job."

A very simple text message, but the content is quite worth remembering.

It seems that the two sides' competition for "Pandora" involves the core interests of the top leaders.

Zheng Li estimated that the final winner should be Shi Qiancheng, not because of the strong dragon that does not suppress local snakes, nor is it because Zheng Li just said "it seems to make sense of nonsense (statement)" in public, but just a simple physical distance.

Pandora itself has little value. For a big city, what is a high dimension? The real value is the recovery of horse people.

"It seems that the evaluation of Starlight weapons is not low, and the war potential of this race should be above the level."

Zheng Li made a judgment based on the intensity of the competition between the two sides. If the Ma people did not have enough combat power, the two sides would not fight for Pandora in this way. Both sides were the top leaders or directly and indirectly interfered in negotiations. This was the direct dispute at the highest level.

Li Zhenjun and the others may not be there, but they should be remotely controlling the competition. Neither side is willing to give up such potential war resources.

In Zheng Li's view, although Twin Cities are coming in a fierce manner, he still feels that Shiqian City will win.

This is because the Twin Cities will return to its territory sooner or later, and the playful world of horses is around this. This physical close distance also limits Pandora's range of activities. The local Shiqian City is the main responsibility of "taming" work.

This "resurrection group" is destined to be a long-term task. Without Shiqiancheng's full cooperation, they would probably have seen the final result.

The restriction is so fierce that it is actually just a matter of competing with many cities for the right to hold the Sword Saint Tournament. Under the premise of "must lose", it bites some flesh and blood on the winner as compensation for giving up.

Perhaps the final result is to form a joint operation team, and Shiqian City accounts for 89 to eat meat, Twin Cities accounts for 12 to drink some soup.

The development of the situation was as Zheng Li expected. Both sides began to call "Neutral" and "on-site audience" made useless comments (witnesses would not listen to anything they said), and the negotiations were actually coming to an end.

Neither party can give up their own interests, so naturally they cannot reach a final formal agreement, and there is only one temporary draft joint action.

From the special team, the city was divided into six and seven

"Shi Qiancheng gave up a lot. It seems that it is a reward for reinforcements from the Twin Cities?"

In fact, Zheng Li didn't care too much about the impact of his statement. He could not make big waves with a small shrimp. Generally speaking, the big guy would not be so stingy and really be cared about. At worst, he could return to Shishishi City to develop.

He thought this matter would end here, but he did cause himself a big trouble.

"Let the Peace Chapter participate in the 'Star Recovery' program? Let's take Pandora to recover the Horsemen?"
Chapter completed!
