Chapter Fifty-One Fun
PS: Two updates are presented! The Liao State is not comparable to the Heavenly Dynasty. The development of martial arts in that place has a history of thousands of years, and many martial artists from the Liao State were originally from the Heavenly Dynasty. Some of them were even from the land that originally belonged to the Song Dynasty but was occupied by the Liao State and became part of the Liao State's martial arts schools, such as the Fist King School. However, the Liao people are fond of martial arts, just like the Western Xia and Tubo countries, not only do they not suppress martial artists, but they also recruit high-level martial artists to serve the imperial court. From this point of view, the Heavenly Dynasty can be said to have imitated the Liao State.
After hundreds of years of development, it has also become a thriving scene. Therefore, each session of the Wulin Conference is a hot topic, and even in the Tianchao Xixia and other places in the martial arts world, it can stir up a considerable ripple.
The martial arts conference is usually divided into two parts. The prelude is a competition among disciples to determine the high and low, and also allows the disciples to communicate with each other. The main theme of the back is the real theme, which involves the throne of the Wulin Alliance, and even if it is a loose cultivator, they have great enthusiasm for this.
However, in recent years, the position of Wulin Alliance leader has been held by Quanwangmen for three terms without any change, which has also greatly increased the prestige of Quanwangmen. Many loose cultivators who come to the mountain are somewhat cautious, and even some sects will warn their disciples before coming to the mountain. The originally powerful Wuyingmen and Changqingmen, which were always able to rival Quanwangmen, now seem to be in decline, which is regrettable for many people.
"Older brother, looking at the many disciples of Fist Emperor's Gate, there are also quite a few skilled ones. Do you know the origin of this Fist Emperor's Gate? To be honest, I've never heard of this sect before!" Wu Ming followed Hong Qi Gong up the mountain, asking as they walked.
Not to mention that I had never heard of it before, but even afterwards, I have never heard of it. To be honest, a large door with nearly 10,000 people, there is no reason why I haven't heard of it myself. Not to mention the past, this world's events in the past three years he still knows some, but just happens to have never heard of the existence of a Fist King Gate, what kind of logic is this? Moreover, at that time when playing games, I had also never heard of such an eye-catching martial arts conference in Liao State.
Hong Qigong took a sip of wine from his gourd and chuckled, "You're referring to the Fist Emperor's Gate? Hehe, many people know about it, but few know its origins. It is said that the founder of the school was from the Palace of No Gods, specifically the eldest son of the great Absolute Heaven. However, during that era, development wasn't smooth sailing. The Palace of No Gods had offended many people back then, and they barely managed to scrape by until over a hundred years ago when they finally started to rise to prominence. Especially in recent decades, the current leader Yan Qing has been touted as the Invincible Hand of Liao Country, and has held the position of Alliance Leader of the Liao Country Martial Arts for three terms, further elevating the prestige of the Fist Emperor's Gate!"
"What? The creator is actually the son of Absolute Nothingness, Absolute Heaven?" Wu Ming's face changed color. If that was the case, then this Fist Emperor Gate indeed had the qualifications to contend for the top spot in the world. The pair of fists from Absolute Nothingness were something that even the former ruler of the world, Tyrant Overlord, feared greatly, and had even injured Wind God Nie Feng and Not Crying To Death God Step Shocking Cloud.
The legacy passed down from such a powerful figure would be unimaginably overbearing! However, this was not the reason why Wu Ming's face changed color. Instead, it was because of how a sect like this, why hadn't he ever heard of it in the game? Had the development here already deviated from the plot of that game?
"Haha, didn't expect that? To be honest, when I first saw the information about Kyokugenryu, I was stunned too. Jyuuken may not have been a top-tier character of that era, but he's definitely an extremely powerful one. Even with my current strength, I'm no match for him! That era... wow, what a gathering of talents!"
As early as hundreds of years ago, Hong Qigong would always sigh with emotion, regretting that he was born hundreds of years too late.
Wu Ming felt a little bewildered, if this world had changed, then what should he do? After a moment, he seemed to have regained his confidence and muttered: "What's the difference even if it has changed? If I'm not capable, what can knowing everything do for me? Now that I already have the capital to stand on my own feet, and also have the golden finger that others don't have, why should I still be worried and afraid?"
Hong Qigong's skills were profound, and even Wu Ming's soft muttering was heard by him. He then curiously asked: "What changed? What is the Golden Finger? Hmm, little brother, what are you afraid of again? Don't worry, you're still young, slowly growing up, in the future those evil people will tremble with fear at the mere mention of your name, who would be afraid of you?"
Hearing this, Wu Ming suddenly had a clear and bright expression, and laughed loudly: "Haha haha, yes, what am I afraid of? I'm not afraid of anything! I am who I am, who am I afraid of? Even if the sky falls down, there are tall people to hold it up."
"It's exactly this reason, haha...". Hong Qigong was originally a carefree person, and upon hearing Wu Ming's words, he also burst out laughing.
The two of them laughed loudly as if no one was around, but scared the people nearby, and everyone around immediately dispersed. It's better to avoid provoking a young lunatic and an old lunatic.
"Let's go, let's go up the mountain and take a look. I want to see what qualifications the Fist Emperor has to be called the Fist Emperor!" Wu Ming's anger came quickly and went just as fast, and he immediately pulled Hong Qigong along as they squeezed their way up the mountain.
Arriving at the mountain top, it was just noon, and also the time when the Martial Arts Conference was about to be held.
It should have started in the morning, but because there were too many people, most of whom lived in the city at the foot of the mountain, so the meeting was delayed for half a day until noon. As for the big sun, it didn't shine on the martial artists yet.
The conference was held, similar to the meetings of later generations. First, the master of the Martial Arts Alliance, Yan Qing, delivered a speech, talking about some major and minor events that had occurred in the martial arts world over the past five years. He then talked about the contributions made by the Martial Arts Alliance, such as eliminating bandits, pursuing and killing the Flower Thief, maintaining peace and order, suppressing the arrogance of evil cults, and so on. Most of what he said was about his own Fist Emperor Sect, but occasionally he would introduce some other sects within the alliance. Finally, he concluded by saying something about unity and development. Wu Ming felt like dozing off after listening to Yan Qing's lengthy speech, but others were different. The passion of many young people had been stirred up, shouting slogans such as "Maintain world peace!"
Yan Qing was extremely satisfied with the outcome of the speech, nodding his head in approval. If the Martial Alliance couldn't unite, it would be better to disband it altogether, as infighting would only lead to trouble. In fact, Yan Qing had intended to use this opportunity to suppress some of the discordant voices within the alliance.
The masters of Wuyin Gate and Changqing Gate naturally disliked this, as if the entire Orthodox was supported by Quanhuang Gate alone. This tone is unpleasant to hear. However, they couldn't do anything about it since their own strength was far inferior; otherwise, they could have used this opportunity to boost their sect's prestige.
To put it simply, this speech is quite impressive. In five years' time, many things can happen. Unfortunately, there are no computers here for information exchange, and many people only know a little bit about each other in bits and pieces. Now that someone has brought it up, it will naturally attract the attention of many people. This is one of the benefits of being an alliance leader, and there are even more invisible benefits that won't be spoken out loud.
Wu Ming lazily fanned himself with a large leaf and said to Hong Qigong, "Old brother, this martial arts conference is really too boring. Who was it that said something and just wouldn't stop talking? Honestly, if I had known it would be like this, I'd rather have stayed at the foot of the mountain for a few more hours before coming up."
Hong Qigong poured out the empty gourd, his face filled with disappointment, and didn't bother to pay attention to what Yan Qing was saying. He had heard enough of this nonsense decades ago. Suddenly, he smiled mysteriously and said in a low voice, "Heh heh, little brother, want to go find some fun?"
"What's fun? What's so funny?" Wu Ming suddenly came to his senses, squatting down to watch the speech, which was still unable to compare with the clumsy speeches of the 21st century, but made him feel extremely bored.
"Come with me!"
Hong Qigong flashed and disappeared, Wu Ming immediately followed suit, since there's something fun to be had, it would be a pity not to go.
