Sword Venerable Ling Tian

The broken boat was much smaller than the tiger whale. However, the tiger whale was like a docile beast pulling the boat as it ran.    

Before the ferocious waves, the broken boat that should have been smashed into smithereens was now under the control of the person in the lead. It was as stable as a boat sailing on land.    

He was shocked to hear it.    

In the history of the Southern Tang, tiger whale were naturally not the most terrifying among all the weak river s, and had heard of many instances of tiger whale being brutally killed by the Grand Master s.    

It was unprecedented, unprecedented.    

This competition could be said to be a perfect score.    

From the expressions of everyone who had rushed out from the deck on the Lin Biao Fleet, it could be seen how successful this competition was.    

After a moment, with the tiger whale pulling, Ling Tian's broken boat finally caught up to the fleet, and followed closely behind. However, at this time, Ling Tian intentionally allowed the tiger whale's speed to drop, it was not faster than the fleet.    

Obviously, he still needed Lin Biao's guidance.    

But at this time, Lin Biao was powerless.    

No matter how fast his boat was, it couldn't be faster than the tiger whale.    

"Humph!"    

After heavily patting the railing, Lin Biao turned around and walked away.    

One day and one night later, the fleet finally reached the border of Zhong State.    

At this time, Ling Tian also placed the tiger whale back into the weak river. He did not want to attract any unnecessary attention because of this tiger whale.    

Once they had landed on the shore, the group of young masters and ladies left in a hurry.    

Feng Family elder also brought his clan members over to pay their respects to Ling Tian.    

"Benefactor, this kindness, my Feng Family will never forget. When I return to my home, I will definitely let Feng Yao come and pay his respects to my benefactor."    

After he finished speaking, the old man led a group of Feng Family disciples and was about to perform a kneeling salute.    

Actually, if not for Ling Tian, let alone coming to the Zhong State, they would even lose their lives.    

Those disciples who were severely injured, had also escaped from danger under the care of Ling Tian's Pill and the others.    

"Old man, you're being too polite, it's just a small matter. Besides, it's our duty, so there's no need to be so polite."    

Ling Tian flashed to the side, causing everyone to float.    

"Since that's the case, we can only bury this kindness deep in our hearts. If in the future, Benefactor needs this favor, the disciples of my Feng Family are willing to go through fire and water, and will not refuse!"    

In the end, Feng Family elder led her people and left.    

"Alright, it's time for us to leave as well."    

Looking at the bustling and bustling pier, although it was extremely huge, other than the Air being slightly different from the Yun State's wetness, Ling Tian still wasn't able to see any difference in this Zhong State.    

"Hey, it doesn't feel any different! This is the legendary Zhong State? "    

While walking, Zhang Kaifeng looked around and asked.    

"This is also my first time coming here, but Aunt told me a lot of things before. Our ferry terminal should be the southernmost Vermillion Bird Sect of the Zhong State, only after we pass the Vermillion Bird Sect can we truly be considered to have stepped into the territory of the Zhong State."    

Qin Shaoyang said.    

"Oh, and then? Is there anything else? I heard that the distribution of power in the Zhong State is a little complicated? " Zhang Kaifeng frowned.    

Qin Shaoyang shook his head, "Actually, it's not that complicated."    

"First, we'll talk about the north, south, east, and west of Zhong State. Each side has their own port, which corresponds to the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise respectively. In addition to that, the center of Zhong State is the Chang'an City, it is also the capital of our Southern Tang. "    

"Afterwards, the entire area of the Zhong State was not as large as the other Eight States s. With the capital city's Chang'an as the center, they spread out to eight different regions. Every region has a top-notch power orbiting around the closest location to the capital city's Chang'an."    

"Eight top forces? the legendary first rate Sect? "    

Qin Shaoyang said, curious baby Ye Baoer opened his round eyes wide and said.    

Everyone looked over when they heard this. After all, the biggest Sect in the Yun State was only a second-tier Sect. They had never seen what kind of power a first-tier Sect was.    

"How is that possible, Zhong State is different from the other Eight States s, unlike the other Yun State s, whose forces are practically all in the martial way. And in the Zhong State, of the eight top-notch powers, five are aristocratic! " Qin Shaoyang shook his head.    

"Five!? Which ones? Could it be the Xin Family? I heard that Xin Family moved to Zhong State a year ago. to completely withdraw from Yunzhou Martial Art. " Ye Fan frowned.    

"Xin Family? What did he count for? The five top families are: Li, Cui, Yang, Wang, and Zhang. Of course, the surname Li represents the royal family, and is unique amongst the eight powers. "    

"As for the remaining four families, each of them is also a colossus. There are a lot of s in their families as well, so naturally, there are also elders with profound Yuan Shen Realm in their clans."    

"Amazing, that means, the power of these aristocratic families are not weaker than the Marquis Yun's Mansion!" Everyone was surprised.    

"It can be said that in a certain aspect, the Yun State Palace can't even compare to any of the top eight forces. The Yun State is indeed the weakest one among them. Therefore, our Yunzhou Martial Disciple does not have a high position in the Zhong State. You all must be mentally prepared. " Qin Shaoyang pursed his lips.    

"Heh heh, that's normal. Along the way, when have we ever been taken seriously? It's not bad to look down on them, when the time comes, we'll destroy their dog heads one by one. " Zhang Kaifeng laughed.    

"What about the other three big powers?" Ye Baoer asked.    

"Of course the remaining is the Sect? It's been over a year and you haven't done your homework? " Qin Shaoyang's eyes widened.    

"With you here, what am I supposed to do?" Ye Baoer looked innocent.    

"Then what do you know?"    

Ye Baoer: "I know how to eat, it's beautiful!"    

Qin Shaoyang: "..."    

Everyone: "Hahahaha ?"    

"The remaining three great powers will naturally be the Sect s. They will be the Dao Controlling Sect, the Wanfu Temple and the Sword Pavilion. Although the strength of the three great powers will be similar, they will all be weaker than the great families."    

"Thus, in general, the Zhong State's martial arts are relatively weak, and the right to speak is not much." Qin Shaoyang sighed.    

"The Sect is actually in such a miserable state."    

Everyone was at a loss for words, but Ye Fan just frowned, "Then what I have said is, the Zhong State's martial arts are so uneven, won't it be unstable?"    

"Turbulent?"    

Qin Shaoyang shook his head, "Brother Fan, I'm afraid you have forgotten what kind of place the Zhong State is."    

"This is the center of Southern Tang, under the feet of the Son of Heaven! Who would dare to be unsettled? Actually, the wisdom of Martial King is something that we can't compare with. Above these eight great forces, there is still another power that I haven't said yet. " You, Qin Shaoyang, smile and say ?    

Ye Fan's eyes lit up, "You mean, the academy?"    

"That's right!" In the Zhong State, other than the royal family dominating all the other forces, the roles of the aristocratic families and the Sect were not very obvious. The Zhong State has four great academies, eight great academies and twelve academies. Inside, not only are there the disciples of Venerable families, there are also the disciples of Sect. "    

"These academies and academies, however, are firmly controlled by the Martial King. They are used by the Martial King to nurture martial arts geniuses. Aristocratic families and Sect s are just a plot of land that is used to nurture geniuses. "    

Speaking to this point, everyone looked at each other, sighing to themselves about how brilliant Martial King's methods were. In this way, the would truly be able to hold the Zhong State's martial arts in his hands.    

Among them, other than the Office of the Crown Prince s who are directly under the Martial Imperial Palace, there are the Mystery s, Kungwu s, Ning You s, and Purple Xiao four great academies. As the Zhong State s are at their peak, almost all of the top geniuses of the Sect and aristocratic families would follow behind Zhang Jin and enter the academy to cultivate.    

"Under the orders of the Martial King, the experts from the various great powers would conduct their lectures. That is where the true elites of the top Martial King would gather."    

"That's why, in the Yun State, aristocratic families or Sect, are only born with the same origin. Which Palace Courtyard do you belong to, is where your reputation of glory resides."    

Just as he was speaking, Qin Shaoyang pointed towards the outside of Vermillion Bird Sect, "Nuo, once we leave Vermillion Bird Sect, everyone will see the stage used by the various great Palace Courtyard s to take in Martial Cultivator s."    

Everyone followed Qin Shaoyang's gaze and looked over, and indeed, they saw the gigantic and imposing Vermillion Bird Sect, and outside the door, how could they faintly see many platforms.    

"Because the distribution of power in the Zhong State is already deeply rooted. Basically, the aristocratic families and the Sect s all send people to their own collaborations to the Palace Courtyard s. This way, the Martial Cultivator s who come from other prefectures will become their favorite targets. And most of the Martial Cultivator s that come to Zhong State are also here to study in these places. "    

"Let's go and take a look. If everyone has an academy they like, it would be pretty good as well."    

After listening for a long time, Ling Tian smiled and led everyone towards Vermillion Bird Sect.
