"If you can think of this, you are indeed making progress. Go on."
The teacher said kindly.
"Before the soul-guided technological revolution, there was an agricultural era, with 'scholars, farmers, industry and commerce' and 'emphasis on the basics and suppression of the weak'. Agriculture was the foundation of everything. In other words, everything revolved around the land. In history books, I often feel that,
Does this world belong to the emperor or the landlords? The rise and fall of each dynasty cannot be separated from the land."
Jiang Yun thought for a moment, his eyes were bright, and he said slowly.
"Huh? You can actually think of these. Not bad, go on."
The teacher seemed a little surprised and said.
"But it's different now. Since the scientific and technological revolution, agriculture is important, and industry is no less important. However, the landowners in the old era had too much property and rights, or in other words, they were still obsessed with the land. This is
A large amount of resources were wasted, and good steel was not used on the blade, which hindered the progress of industrial civilization and soul guidance technology."
Jiang Yun sighed softly and said.
"Then tell me, what should we do?"
the teacher asked gently.
"Students are stupid, and I don't have any good ideas yet. But I have seen one thing, that is, the era of soul guidance technology is a little different from the past. The old aristocrats who control land resources, to put it bluntly, are mostly soul master families.
, they have powerful family martial spirits, passed down from generation to generation
There are many masters, and force is the first guarantee of their rights. When it comes to the ability to create wealth, those people may not be any higher than us ordinary people. The Great Wall to resist the spirit beasts, the palace of Mingdu, the Grand Canal connecting the north and south,
Which one was not carved out by the people?"
Jiang Yun smiled and continued: "I'm afraid it's not the nobles and emperors who create wealth, but the millions of people. Even in today's era of soul tools, the vast majority of daily soul tools
, are also produced by ordinary workers in the factory, not real soul masters. However, the soul master family
The tribe controls the force, so they can seize the vast majority of resources, while the vast majority of the people can only drink from one mouthful to another. Throughout the ages, changes have mostly been top-down charity, and bottom-up uprisings have rarely been successful.
There are very few heroes like the son of the Red Emperor and the Taizu of our dynasty."
The son of the Red Emperor rose from the wilderness, overthrew the brutal Lichuan Dynasty, ascended to the throne of emperor in commoner clothes, and was regarded as a legend. Jiang Yun's only remaining martial spirit has some connections with this ancient hero.
The current Taizu of the Sun and Moon Dynasty was also a reckless hero who ended the evil-eyed tyrant's cruel rule over mankind and drove the soul beasts back to the Evil Forest.
"But now, the situation has changed slightly. In the past, even 10,000 ordinary people holding weapons could not defeat an unarmed seventh- and eighth-level master; but now, after being equipped with soul-guided weapons, even if
Even though he is a ninth-level soul master, he dare not say that he can defeat an army composed of mortals. In terms of force, the status of ordinary people and low-level soul masters has indeed risen, while high-level
The dominance of soul masters has actually declined."
"Perhaps, one day, when soul guidance technology develops to a certain extent, there will be no big difference between ordinary people and ninth-level masters and titled Douluo. By that time, the world of great harmony mentioned in ancient books will not be far away!"
Jiang Yun said with some longing.
"There is only so much that students can think of at the moment. The teacher still needs to give guidance on the rest."
The teacher was silent for a moment and said: "You can just talk to the teacher about this topic, but never discuss it outside. You have already seen the problem in depth, but many things are not that simple. Even if it is true that one day, the soul guide
When technology can develop to the point where it can easily eliminate the ninth level, and even the masters, will those who have mastered Tai'a fall down easily? This world is different from ancient times, and great power comes more from order than the courage of an individual."
"You said that the world should change, but have you ever noticed that change may already be happening? It's just that new things are always very small, but the shadow of the old forces is so huge that it makes people
Ignore the flames of those stars. How many people can understand the ebb and flow of energy between heaven and earth, and the changing of divine weapons? Its prosperity is also sudden, and its demise is also sudden! "
The teacher's voice was long and leisurely, as if floating from the upper reaches of the long river of history, and Jiang Yun was intoxicated by it.
After the class was over, it was getting dark. Jiang Yun got out of bed, left the dormitory building, and went to have dinner.
In Shrek Academy, each grade has its own cafeteria, which is located behind the dormitory area. Jiang Yun was surprised when he entered the freshman cafeteria. There were not many people in the cafeteria at the moment, and it seemed very empty. There was not even a single
There are no tables and chairs, and it is completely empty. There is only a sink for washing hands and tableware on one side. On the inside is a window for purchasing meals, with prices marked outside each window. There are eight windows in total, with different dishes and prices.
It gets more expensive from right to left.
Is there even a place to sit when eating in the cafeteria? There is a sign at the door of the cafeteria that no food is allowed to be taken out of the cafeteria.
There is no doubt that the food supply at Shrek Academy is also divided into several grades. The cheapest meals can certainly satisfy people, but those high-quality meals can better satisfy the nutrition of a soul master's practice.
Demand. The highest-end meals were all made from soul beast meat, various precious herbs, and secret recipes. Jiang Yun moved his index finger at the sight of them.
In principle, that window only provides food to the core students and teachers of the academy, and a meal is expensive and must be calculated in gold soul coins. You know, under normal circumstances, a gold soul coin costs a family in the Star Luo Empire for a week.
, may be more than enough.
Jiang Yun didn't have to worry about this at all. He was an exchange student and automatically enjoyed the treatment of a core student. He was immediately served a top-grade meal and had a hearty meal. Except for the fact that he was not used to using the tableware, other
all is well.
When he returned to the dormitory, Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment, and then stood there with great interest.
In the open space not far from the dormitory door, two figures were fighting fiercely. Isn't one of them the arrogant young man who attacked him today?
The other person looked very plainly dressed, but his eyes were very bright, which left a big impression on Jiang Yun.
The simple boy had a white soul ring floating around his body, giving him an even more shabby feeling; the pink-blue haired boy opposite didn't even activate his martial spirit, but completely suppressed the plainly dressed boy.
At a disadvantage, if he hadn't fought in a completely disorganized manner and the opponent had mastered a little bit of martial arts, the winner would have been decided long ago.
In addition to Jiang Yun, the old man who was lying on a chair and basking in the sun all day long was also watching the fight between the two teenagers with great interest. Jiang Yun's mouth twitched. With such treatment, even the titled Douluo on the mainland would be shocked.
You may not have it.
The outcome of this fight was somewhat beyond Jiang Yun's expectation. At the last moment, the plainly dressed young man seemed to have launched a mental attack, causing the other party to lose consciousness for a short time. At that moment, he took the pink-blue haired boy and
The young man threw himself to the ground and subdued the other party.
"I lost, get up quickly." The pink-blue haired boy said angrily, but his eyes were full of dissatisfaction and hatred.
The plainly dressed young man did not let him go, and said coldly: "It's not that I can't do the five things you said before. But it's not because of your threats, but out of respect for my roommate. I know,
Your strength is superior to mine. If you use martial arts, I will definitely not be your opponent. But remember, if you dare to insult me again, then even if I am beaten to death by you, I will at least get rid of you.
Bite off a piece of meat."
Seeing the young man becoming more and more fierce, even looking like a soul beast with bloodthirsty eyes, the hatred in the eyes of the pink-blue haired boy dissipated, replaced by a trace of panic. The opponent was clearly much weaker than him, but in
In terms of momentum, he was completely at a disadvantage.
The plainly dressed young man slowly let go of the other person and stood up. He first faced him and took a few steps back, then turned around and prepared to walk towards the dormitory.
"Well, is it you? Stop, don't run!"
At this time, the pink-blue haired boy finally noticed Jiang Yun and let out a sharp roar.
"You are really boring. If you want to compete in martial arts, I can accompany you, but I don't agree with your method."
Jiang Yun naturally would not run away, but put his hands in his pockets and said with a smile.
"Classmate, may I ask who you are?"
The plainly dressed young man looked at Jiang Yun, showed a kind smile, and asked.
"My name is Jiang Yun, and I am an exchange student at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. What about you?"
"My name is Huo Yuhao, and he is my roommate Wang Dong."
Huo Yuhao smiled shyly and said.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Today I want to try to see what you, an international student, are capable of."
Wang Dong snorted coldly and swept his leg towards Jiang Yun's neck. A strong wind blew in his face, causing Huo Yuhao who was watching on the sidelines to shout: "Be careful!"
"Crack!"
As if he had expected it, Jiang Yun took half a step back, raised his right hand, and grabbed Wang Dong's ankle.
Wang Dong's expression changed slightly, and he felt that Jiang Yun's right hand was like an iron hoop, and he couldn't break free.
But Jiang Yun had a different feeling. Holding Wang Dong's calf in his hand, he felt extremely soft and indescribably comfortable. He was slightly stunned for a moment.
"let go!"
A blush appeared on Wang Dong's face. At this moment, he finally released his martial soul. The strong soul power burst out and shook Jiang Yun's palm away. He took two steps back and prepared himself.
Two soul rings rose from Wang Dong's feet, one yellow and one purple. The second soul ring was a thousand years old, which was beyond the norm.
"Thousand-year soul ring?"
At this moment, not only Jiang Yun was shocked, Huo Yuhao who was watching was even more shocked.
Wang Dong said in a cold voice, and a pair of pink-blue butterfly wings appeared behind him. They were extremely gorgeous and beautiful, as if they were carefully carved by God.
