Chapter 188 Imperial Election
Zhao Lianwei nodded: "I've made a note of it. I'll send someone to keep an eye on it."
Lin Zhao said, “Before we go to the Phoenix Medicine Sect, can Miss Zhao tell me about the layout of the Phoenix Medicine Sect?”
Although the head of the Zhao family should be the Zhao family head, the Zhao family head has an old injury and is not easy to disturb. In addition, as both are women, Lin Zhao prefers to deal with Zhao Lianwei.
Zhao Lianwei smiled and said, "That's natural."
She thought for a moment: "The Phoenix Medicine Sect was once a giant in the Zuhuang Continent, but because of an accident, the sect master's third disciple made a big mistake, and the sect master was seriously injured and went into seclusion. In this riot, countless elite members of the Phoenix Medicine Sect were killed and injured. The Phoenix Medicine Sect, which lost its top combat power, was expelled to the Northwest Continent by several masters from the Central Continent and became the dominant force in the Northwest Continent. But it is only one of the top first-class forces. Not to mention compared with the giants in the Central Continent, even compared with the transcendent forces in the Zuhuang Continent, it is a small witch compared to a big witch. But the foundation is still there, so the Phoenix Medicine Sect has been constantly repairing in recent years, hoping to fight back to the Central Continent."
Lin Zhao knew that Zhao Lianwei was a smart person. The background of the Phoenix Medicine Sect that she had been talking about for so long must be related to her opportunity to enter the Phoenix Medicine Sect.
"That is why the Phoenix Medicine Sect has been constantly recruiting young geniuses from the Northwest Continent in recent years, hoping to gain a place in the imperial election."
Lin Zhao asked: "Imperial election?"
Lin Zhao had said before that she was from the Tianhuang Continent, so Zhao Lianwei was not surprised that she had doubts about this well-known event on the Zuhuang Continent.
"Although Zuhuang Continent is the same as Tianhuang Continent, with major sects ruling the cultivation domain, Zuhuang Continent is actually ruled by an empire. The major sects have to pay tribute to the empire regularly, and their actions and management are under the jurisdiction of the empire."
Lin Zhao raised an eyebrow. "So the empire can decide the level of these forces?"
Zhao Lianwei nodded: "But under normal circumstances, the empire will not care about the disputes between sects. Therefore, some sects that are not strong enough to want to rank higher will focus on the imperial election. In the imperial election, if the younger generation of a sect gets a top ten ranking, the transcendent forces will add them as a leader. Before the next imperial election, the empire will give them resources according to this ranking. If they get resources from the transcendent forces, there will be no shortage of masters who will surrender and consolidate their position."
Lin Zhao listened and began to understand.
Isn’t this the continental competition of Tianhuang Continent?
However, the Zuhuang Continent is more domineering. Not only does it not need to rely on resources to slowly develop to the desired stage, but it can directly reach the sky in one step.
“But the probability of a disciple from a non-transcendent faction getting into the top ten…” Zhao Lianwei said with a wry smile, “Not even one in ten thousand. Since the establishment of the empire election rules, only two people have ever achieved such a feat.”
Lin Zhao herself came from a noble family, so she certainly understood the reason.
There is no shortage of geniuses in this world; what is lacking are the people and resources to cultivate geniuses.
But people are not stupid. As long as they have outstanding talent, who doesn’t want to develop in a better place?
For example, Ji Wantang, although she was born in Tianhuang Continent, her qualifications attracted the attention of the forces in Zuhuang Continent, so she left Tianhuang Continent and entered Zuhuang Continent to practice.
In the long run, the stronger the force, the more geniuses it will have, and with abundant resources, it will be able to form a monopoly.
Under this monopoly situation, it is nothing but a pipe dream for the grassroots forces in the border continent to rely on the imperial election to become a phoenix.
The reason why the Phoenix Medicine Sect has this hope is mainly because they still have some foundation and want to make a last-ditch effort to give it a try.
Zhao Lianwei continued, "The Phoenix Medicine Sect probably doesn't expect to make it into the top ten, but if any of its disciples make it into the top 100, they can apply to go to the Central Continent and become a first-rate sect in the Central Continent."
Lin Zhao listened to Zhao Lianwei's words and thought for a moment: "What is the cultivation level of the most promising cultivator in the Phoenix Medicine Sect now?"
Zhao Lianwei said, "He is the second elder's last disciple, Sima Ling. He has reached the Great Perfection of the Heartbeat Stage, but his cultivation level is probably only in the top 500 at most."
Lin Zhao's mouth twitched.
Heartbeat period is perfect? And this is just the first 500?
With her cultivation level at the initial stage of fusion, she was like a small ant when she entered the room and was killed in seconds.
"If you want to be in the top 100, you must be at least in the Nascent Soul stage." Zhao Lianwei saw Lin Zhao's surprise and said, "And this imperial election is the most special one in a thousand years."
Lin Zhao asked curiously, "What's so special about it?"
"The Zuhuang Emperor is about to pass away and abdicate. It is said that the winner of this imperial election will be the Zuhuang Crown Prince."
Lin Zhao raised an eyebrow: "Ji Wantang is the popular candidate?"
Zhao Lianwei didn't care much about Ji Wantang's level of genius, she just smiled and said: "This kind of thing is not something we can think of, but the imperial election is still nearly two years away. The Phoenix Medicine Sect should pile resources on Sima Ling to see if they can produce a Yuanying stage in two years."
If the Phoenix Medicine Sect can really turn a person in the Heart-beating Stage into a Nascent Soul in two years, that would be quite an achievement.
Lin Zhao knew that with her current level of cultivation, participating in the so-called imperial election would be like just delivering food, but she was not discouraged.
What was her cultivation level when she first came down from Yunding Mountain? What is her cultivation level now, one year later?
Arriving at the Zuhuang Continent, the resources and spiritual energy are no longer what they used to be. Lin Zhao may want to compete for the top spot.
However, one cannot become fat in one bite, so the priority now is to enter the Phoenix Medicine Sect.
Zhao Lianwei studied Lin Zhao's face and said, "How old are you now, Brother Lin? When you are thirty, you will surely be one of the top geniuses in the continent."
Lin Zhao said: "Time will not wait for me, but it is good to have challenges."
Zhao Lianwei was stunned for a moment, and praised: "Fellow Daoist Lin has great ambition."
Lin Zhao said, “Before the people from the Phoenix Medicine Sect arrive, I will be in seclusion for a while.”
After knowing this news, Lin Zhao realized that Ji Wantang was probably a powerful being at the Nascent Soul level now.
Grandma Honghu said, "You don't have to rush for success. Compared to her, you wasted ten years. It took her more than ten years to reach her current level of cultivation."
Lin Zhao wiped her nose and looked determined: "But the time left for us is the same. If I can't defeat her in the imperial election, I will be dead by the time she sits on the throne of the heir to the throne."
After returning to the room arranged for her by the Zhao family, Lin Zhao thought for a moment and then asked a servant of the Zhao family some questions.
After learning that the place with the most spiritual energy in North City was the Spirit Beast Mountain surrounding North City, Lin Zhao told his servants to go there to practice and then rushed there.
When Zhao Lianwei learned the news, her expression changed slightly.
Zhao Qianqian beside her asked, "Sister, is there anything going on at Lingshou Mountain?"
"Nothing, I just asked someone to let Wuyan go there to relax. You know Wuyan's body will not be able to bear it in a few days if he is not recuperating in a place with abundant spiritual energy."
She was a little worried that the two would meet again and Zhao Wuyan would offend Lin Zhao again.
No matter how good Lin Zhao's temper was, she was a genius who entered the fusion period at the age of seventeen. How could she tolerate being offended again and again?
"Second brother...that shouldn't be the case, right?" Zhao Qianqian said hesitantly.
Zhao Lianwei sighed: "I hope they don't run into each other."
I don't expect the two of them to be together, I just hope they don't become enemies.
