"Xiao Gu, are you there? Xiao Sheng is here."

In the Beicang Academy's Jinglingjie Society lounge, Gu Tianxiao slowly opened his eyes, put away the auxiliary device and ended the meditation. The sound should be Wang Chen.

The person who came in was Wang Chen. He looked at Gu Tian smiling and said with a smile: "Everyone has run away. You are still practicing here. When did you become so diligent?"

Seeing Wang Chen entering the door but still leaning against the door wall to make fun of him, Gu Tianxiao asked in surprise: "All people have run away? Are Sun Meng and the others better?"

"The venue has been cold for half an hour. You can come out and see it yourself. Sun Meng is still there, it's already gone." Wang Chen said with a smile.

Gu Tianxiao followed Wang Chen out of the lounge. The martial arts venue was indeed empty. There were few people on and off the stage. Tianxiao still stayed behind. Looking at the sky, it turned out that it was already evening. This time he meditated and practiced, he actually entered the state of concentration. Gu Tianxiao did not check at all, but the effect was excellent, and his spiritual power was almost completely restored.

The meditation state is a blessing that is extremely unlikely to encounter during meditation and practice. The monks have completely entered the state of selflessness, and their bodies are fully in line with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The effect of spiritual power cultivation is several times better than that of ordinary meditation.

"The young monk Beidou had been guarding the door before. When he saw me coming, he left." Wang Chen was stunned when he saw Gu Tian laughing and said with a reminder.

"Oh, do you know Beidou?"

"I have seen it, but I'm not very familiar with it. Does he know your identity?" Wang Chen asked.

"I know. Your old man hasn't said how to end?"

"Haha, this matter is Xuan, Xiaosheng is here for this matter, let's talk while walking." Wang Chen pulled Gu Tianxiao and walked into the martial arts arena, quickly left Beicang Academy and came to the academy street.

"How is this place better than Chibi City?" Wang Chen asked suddenly as he walked.

"It's almost the same. Chibi City is a little more prosperous. I feel that the people here should be simpler."

Gu Tianxiao looked at the bright shops on both sides of the street and asked in confusion: "Do you take me to the restaurant?"

"Let you see the scenery, by the way, add a friend first."

The two opened Linggui and added friends to each other.

"What's the best thing to look at? Why don't you go to my Guxiangzhai to pick a few gadgets for you? But the direction is wrong, and you're going farther and farther away. Are you heading north?" Gu Tianxiao was a little strange. As he got further and further away, the shops on the street became scarce. If he walked like this, he would soon reach the end of the city. Beicang Academy was originally north of Songcang City.

"The preliminaries of Beicang Academy this time ended very quickly. In the first round, the team that entered the finals had been selected." Wang Chen ignored Gu Tianxiao and said to himself.

"Is that true? There is no need to decide the top three? Isn't there a student banquet? The top three will be invited to form associations." Gu Tian asked with a smile and wonder.

"It turns out that you also know about the student banquet, but because the top three were not decided, the association for the banquet was designated by the academy. Unfortunately, the association for the spirit was not included."

Gu Tianxiao couldn't understand even more, "So what happened?"

Wang Chen smiled and said, "It's the latest type of psychic calculation. In fact, you can see that the points of the forty-eight associations in the Beicang competition area have been released, and the top three in each academy have a choice. Your spirit-calling association won three games and three wins, and you have won the highest score, but there are more than three associations with the highest score, and my Wangwang association is also 16 points."

"Oh, so that's it. This is really convenient. Congratulations." Gu Tianxiao understood that this kind of calculation was also possible in the past by cultivators with powerful spiritual sense. Now, just use the help of spiritual tools.

"The gap is really big, Tianxiao, don't you think so?"

"Yes, it's really big. I feel that Dan Tai Zhishui can choose a whole association alone, haha." Gu Tian laughed and laughed.

"Dan Tai Zhishui is very powerful, but the gap I am talking about is not this." Wang Chen shook his head and said.

"Then are you talking about Lingwu? There is nothing we can do. They were born with the golden key in their mouths. In an instant, I think about the people who are in the third realm will be jealous of them when they see them. By the way, you are not bad, Wang Chen, don't tell me the treasures that are not under the box."

Wang Chen shook his head, "That's right, people like Dan Tai Zhishui or Tai Shu Tai have a huge gap compared to most academy students. But Tianxiao, you haven't thought about the gap between Xianyi, right?"

Gu Tianxiao looked at Wang Chen in surprise. For some reason, Wang Chen's face was a little pale, and he did not have the usual relaxed attitude. Gu Tianxiao asked in confusion: "Wang Chen, are you okay? The distance between immortals and mortals has always existed? I also know that your Confucianism has always advocated equality of immortals and mortals, and has also stabilized the order of immortals and mortals in various dynasties. But what does it have to do with the Academy Competition?"

Wang Chen sighed and said, "My old man has a wish. He hopes that all children of appropriate age in Zhongzhou can enter the academy, regardless of wealth, poverty, talent, power, everyone can read books, and everyone can practice. Academics are academys, and there is no distinction between big and small. They teach people to distinguish right from wrong and teach people to understand the truth. Even if they only practice the Qi refining realm, they can be upright. Those who are capable can benefit the people, and those who are mediocre are obedient. Only in this way can Zhongzhou not be afraid of any threats, even if there is another great disaster in the world."

"It's very good, very ideal, but is it too ideal? Your crazy scholar Wang is really crazy enough, and your father has a lot of ideas."

"Tianxiao, I also hope that there will be such a day when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will no longer be the world of immortal cultivation before." Wang Chen said seriously.

"Is there still there?" Gu Tian asked with a smile.

Wang Chen nodded, "My old man has been doing ideological work at the senior management of Zhongzhou a few years ago, and has indeed promoted the popularization of Zhongzhou Academy."

"That's quite amazing," Gu Tian continued with a smile, "I admired Zhongzhou's overall development situation before. Your father is really amazing."

"Not only my old man, but also Uncle Chen and Uncle Song, as well as other Confucian saints' joint efforts."

"Isn't this very good? Zhongzhou Academy now recruits mortal children. Although the requirements for spiritual talent are relatively high, there are a few people I have selected from the corner of Woniu Village. You have seen three of them, just the three who followed Sun Meng." Gu Tianxiao responded.

"I saw it and watched their battle. This time the guy was playing was that boy named Tong Hu. He was pretty good and had a good talent. Although he lost, his courage was commendable. If he hadn't had a little lack of practical experience, he might have hope of winning." Wang Chen sighed and continued, "This is the biggest achievement that my old man and others have fought for. Only those who have good talent can enter the academy."

"But I have seen some small academies in the city and small private schools in the town. It's already very good overall now, right?" Gu Tian asked with a smile.

Wang Chen smiled helplessly, "Tianxiao, how many places have you been to? Especially where there are many mortals?"

"It's quite a lot. I've been wandering around Meilong Town before."

"How many mortals are there in Meilong Town?"

"Although I didn't pay much attention, there were always tens of thousands of people. I saw that the houses behind the street were also dense, although most of them were a bit dilapidated." Gu Tian said with a smile.

Wang Chen pointed to the rows of tall houses behind Shuyuan Street and said, "Tianxiao, how many mortals are there in Beicang City."

"I think the scale is similar to Chibi City. For such a big city, there are always tens of millions of mortals around it, but I have not had the chance to go to the mortal area here."

"You are right. It's basically this number, but do you know how many mortals there are in Zhongzhou?" Wang Chen asked again.

"I only know that there were about 70 million people in the six major cities and counties of the Ancient Sword Dynasty, and there must be countless people in the entire Zhongzhou."

"Yes, there are countless more, more than tens of millions, that's a trillion. How many people can go to academy to study? And what you see are better places, as Zhongzhou is so big, most of the places where mortals live are much worse than Meilong Town."

"Is there a billion people so exaggerating?" Gu Tianxiao said in surprise.

"Or what would you think the spirit crystal you used came from?" Wang Chen chuckled.

"That was not what I earned from Guxiangzhai? Even if I can still cheat the monk, why did he get involved in mortals?"

"Your spiritual crystal comes from the pits of those rich monks, but the spiritual crystals of those rich monks come from the pits of ordinary monks or mortals and rich businessmen. In the end, those rich businessmen are still the mortals at the bottom, not to mention that the imperial dynasty has exploited mortals layer by layer. Do you know, how many mortals do you need to support you with a big money-spending man like you?" Wang Chen said angrily.

"I understand what you said. The gap between the rich and the poor is like a natural barrier. Alas... it seems that your old man is really amazing." Gu Tianxiao also sighed.

"My old man likes a passage from ancient sages the most." Wang Chen suddenly said generously as he spoke.

There was once a sage saying: "The red sun rises, and the road is bright; the river flows out, and it flows down the ocean. The dragon soars into the abyss, the scales and claws fly; the milk tiger roars into the valley, and all beasts are frightened; the eagle and falcon test their wings, and the wind and dust suck. The strange flowers are born with the first birth, and the emperor is the emperor; the gang and the wife are swaying to the sky. The sky is covered with its green sky, and the earth is covered with its yellow sky. Even if it is eternal, there are eight wildernesses across the sea, and the future is long. How beautiful my young man in Zhongzhou is, and I will never grow old with the sky; how powerful my young man in Zhongzhou has no boundaries in the world."

The two of them walked further and further away, with a staggering stone road under their feet, gradually leaving the city area, and the surroundings became desolate, and even the north wind whistled in their ears.

After a while, Wang Chen continued to say: "My old man said that Zhongzhou is now too concentrated and is in the hands of a few interest groups. It is no longer the grand occasion of the blooming flowers in the world of immortal cultivation. But this is also beneficial, and the key is to look at the top of the existence. Unfortunately, the people in Zhongzhou now have no faith. In just fifteen years after the spiritual wasteland, they have pursued fame and fortune and fought for power. Although they look at the rapid development of the external spiritual energy field, they are actually corrupted."

"So... my old man gave up his previous efforts and headed to another path."

Gu Tian smiled at the sky and said, "I guessed that you were here to show off with me."

"As the son of my old man, I still have to give you a word," Wang Chen stopped and said to Gu Tianxiao, "My old man said that as long as you hand over the spiritual treasure book to the Nangong family, you can continue to be your Nangong Gu, or you can be your Gu Tianxiao in the East China Sea. The beauty's wealth can be enjoyed and ensure that you have a life of peace. As a friend, I would like to advise you to give up anything outside of your body."

"What a pity..." Gu Tianxiao sighed to the sky, "It's not something outside."
