The burly warrior who spoke first had eyes full of envy: "The realm above Xiantian is really fascinating! That is a force that even the recognized national guard can barely resist. The Martial Saint is even more like a god. I wonder when I will have the chance to meet such a legendary strong man."
"You are such a coward and you still want to see the Martial Master? Wishful thinking." Old Wu couldn't help but shook his head. "Just now when I urged you to come over, you all looked scared and hesitated. Even if there really is a Martial Master here, would you dare to come and meet him?"
After being scolded like this, both of them looked embarrassed and remained silent.
"Humph! Why don't you return to the palace and report immediately? If something goes wrong in this military sacrifice ceremony, you will all die!"
Old Wu snorted coldly, threw down a few words, and then disappeared on the city wall with a "swish", leaving the two cowards staring at each other.
In the evening, under Xiaobao's guidance, Lu Wenwu collected information and returned to the inn, and by the way, he signed up for the martial arts imperial examination.
Although he still felt that this disguised behavior was a bit unnecessary.
But we have to admit that Xiaobao is indeed experienced and efficient in this area.
After an afternoon of inquiring, he had basically understood the cultivation system and power distribution of this world.
This world does not have a unified and specific name, so Lu Wenwu simply and roughly named it the Divine Weapon Continent, an extremely vast world, countless times larger than the surface area of the Blue Star.
The Divine Weapon Continent is currently in a state of chaos among the nations, and it is said that it has lasted for ten thousand years without stopping.
Mutual alliances and backstabbing are the norm. The entire battlefield is a chaotic one, and the main theme is that no one can be trusted.
Apart from the twelve hegemonic countries that have remained strong for countless years, no one knows how many countries there are on the continent.
The country was just founded today, but the imperial power might change hands tomorrow, and be overthrown the day after tomorrow. So no one would record such things.
The country where Lu Wenwu is currently located is called Houtu Empire, located in the south of Shenbing Continent. It is relatively powerful among its neighboring countries and has been strong for hundreds of years.
On the Divine Weapon Continent, the only cultivation system is martial arts.
The process is similar and the results are similar.
It is nothing more than: strengthening the Qi and blood to become a warrior.
It is divided into six stages in total: refining the flesh, tempering the bones, forging the veins, innate, martial master, and martial saint.
Starting from the flesh refining stage, it corresponds to the D level in the system realm division, and increases gradually.
The lifespan of a warrior in the Xiantian realm is 200 years, that of a warrior master is 300 years, and that of a warrior saint is 500 years.
According to Lu Wenwu's speculation, theoretically, the realm of a Martial Saint should be comparable to that of a first-level Divine Practitioner.
But that's only in theory.
It is only about realm, not combat power and comprehensive data.
Because he didn't find anyone strong enough to be above the innate level in the imperial city, there was no sample to compare.
Moreover, after taking a walk outside in the afternoon and actually observing, both Lu Wenwu and Xiaobao discovered one thing.
The martial arts training system in this world is missing a leg.
Warriors only focus on cultivating qi and blood, but no one cultivates and develops the soul and mental strength.
This results in them all relying solely on passive improvements in talent, or on accumulation over time and experience, and they can basically only maintain the lower limit of their mental strength at the current level.
You know, among the cultivation systems of Blue Star, there are many schools of thought, but there is not a single one that does not focus on cultivating the soul, even the body cultivation school is the same.
Without a strong enough soul, how can one control a strong body?
Let’s take the most famous classic cultivation system as an example.
At the Qi Refining Stage, one has already begun to focus on the cultivation of spiritual power.
In the foundation-building stage, the cultivation of spiritual power has become a necessity.
Without a strong enough spiritual consciousness, it is impossible to advance to the Golden Core Realm.
If what he expected was correct, a Martial Saint could reach the first level of godhood. It would be too unbelievable for him not to cultivate his soul.
It is a bit regrettable that Lu Wenwu did not find out much information about the magic weapon.
It is possible that it was kept secret to avoid being disclosed to the public.
It is also possible that the martial artists he came into contact with were of too low a level and no one generally knew about this kind of news.
In short, the information he got was about a profession that was derived from a warrior, but was different from a warrior.
His name was the Commander in Chief of Arms.
It is said that as long as one is recognized by the national magic weapon, one can at least become a master of the innate level.
Moreover, he is invincible in the innate realm and can beat ten people at once.
In addition, there is an untrue rumor that every founding monarch who can establish a country and dynasty is a military commander, or there is a military commander in his family.
Without a national treasure, it seems impossible to truly build a country.
Moreover, it seems that the national magic weapon has some kind of destiny, which can only be controlled by the country.
If one does not establish a country quickly after obtaining the magic weapon, or does not take control of a country quickly, the holder will die suddenly after a period of time.
Other than that, nothing more.
This is all the information circulating.
Lu Wenwu, Xiaobao and the cat discussed it for a long time and guessed that this magic weapon might be a concrete product of luck.
Just like the golden dragon of luck created by the lucky cultivators who gathered the national luck, it can be strengthened as the national luck increases. The controller can also mobilize the national luck of a country to help in the battle.
Only in this way can a warrior of the lowest level be promoted to the innate realm which can extend his life by a hundred years, and begin to escape from the mundane world.
Enough information made the man and the cat more convinced that this so-called martial arts examination, which could be participated in freely, must be a fraud.
Unless the Houtu Empire has a martial master who can suppress the innate military commander, it is impossible to allow the divine weapons to flow out.
Chapter 461: I didn’t become the champion because I didn’t get enough votes.
Four days later, the martial arts imperial examination was held as scheduled.
It was different from what Lu Wenwu had imagined, the ancient imperial examination was a simple competition to see who could win.
The preliminary projects of the martial arts examination are more like a screening.
It is indeed necessary to sift through it.
Since there was no restriction on cultivation level in the Houtu Empire's martial arts examinations, martial artists from all walks of life across the country flocked to the imperial capital.
Not to mention the inns in the city, even the stables in the inns, the woodshed and water rooms in the city, and even the villages next door that were a little closer were already full.
If a warrior has not entered the Bone Tempering Realm, his digestive ability will be greatly enhanced and less filth will be excreted.
The military examination has probably not been held yet, but the Houtu Empire can already consider moving the capital to another city as the imperial capital.
Warriors have larger appetites than ordinary people.
With so many warriors just eating and drinking, if you don’t have some strength, you really don’t dare to take part in this level of martial arts examination.
At this time in the imperial capital, there were hundreds of thousands of warriors scanned by Lu Wenwu's spiritual sense alone. Most of them were flesh-refining warriors who came out to try their luck.
There are very few warriors in the Bone Tempering Realm, only about ten thousand.
As for the Pulse Forging Realm, which is regarded as the master among masters in the eyes of ordinary people, there are only a hundred or so of them.
Come to think of it.
If so many warriors all have to rely on fighting in the ring to gradually determine their rankings, then given the productivity of this era, there will really be a lot of fighting.
The right way is to eliminate the vast majority of talents as quickly as possible.
As the first stage of the martial arts examination, the assessment items are simple and unpretentious.
It's simply the degree of vitality of the blood.
Regardless of one’s state of mind, gender, age or status, as long as the level of Qi and blood is sufficient, one will be allowed to pass.
If the Qi and blood are not strong enough, even the Meridian Forging Realm will not be effective.
In fact, among the warriors who came to participate in the martial arts examination, one-third of the Pulse Forging Realm were eliminated.
Most of them are old warriors who are already old and have passed the peak of their cultivation, and whose energy and blood have begun to decline.
Perhaps they can even burst out with great strength if they cheer up.
But in terms of the vitality of their Qi and blood, many of them have weakened to the point where they are not even as good as those at the peak of physical training.
Perhaps whether a warrior has sufficient qi and blood cannot determine whether he is strong.
But whether the qi and blood are sufficient can definitely determine whether a warrior still has enough drive and potential, even if it is the kind that cannot be developed until death.
The blood and energy test in the first stage eliminated more than 99 percent of the warriors, leaving only a handful of thousands.
Except for dozens of Vein Forging Warriors and nearly a hundred Flesh Refining Realm warriors with extremely strong Qi and blood, the rest are all experts in Bone Tempering Realm.
Lu Wenwu is one of them.
He simulated the Qi and blood strength of a Bone Tempering Realm and passed it easily with his youthful appearance and sturdy build.
All warriors who enter the second level have one common characteristic.
That is youth.
None of them is old, and the oldest is only over 40 years old. They are still at the end of their prime and have the possibility to fight for progress.
Once you are over fifty, your Qi and blood will uncontrollably decline.
Even with rare and precious medicine, it can only delay a few years. This decline due to age is irreversible.
Unless one is fortunate enough to cultivate a breath of innate fetal breath and enter the innate realm, prolonging one's life by a hundred years, one can continue to maintain the peak of qi and blood and strive for a higher realm.
What Lu Wenwu had not expected at all was that the Houtu Empire announced that all warriors who entered the second level would have the opportunity to participate in the Divine Weapon Ceremony and try to make the national divine weapon recognize its master.
Lu Wenwu originally thought that the Houtu Empire would be more restrained. At least they would wait until there were only a few dozen people left before letting everyone try, right?
Are these two thousand people qualified?
Those who know about it think that it is an attempt to let the magic weapon recognize its master, while those who don’t know think that it is waiting in line here to advance to the next level!
However, what surprised Lu Wenwu even more was.
The Houtu Empire has almost made it clear to everyone: I’m going to reveal my cards now. I’m not going to act any more. I just have ulterior motives, so what?
However, no warrior chose to withdraw. Instead, they became more and more fanatical, as if the Houtu Empire was really planning to give the national treasure to someone other than the royal family.
The excitement of the group made Lu Wenwu somewhat suspicious. Did Xiaobao and he make a wrong judgment?
