In this debate, there were many prizes.
The first was the Ten Thousand Participation Prize, where the Five Saints would choose the best ten thousand people.
The reward was one thousand taels of silver, one month of cultivation in the mysterious holy land, one Flesh Incarnation Fruit, and a set of Perfect Pills that the Medical Hall made to strengthen the human body.
The other five winners would not be included in the Ten Thousand Participation Prize, but they would all receive the Participation Prize.
The second was the Thousand People Prize, where the Five Saints would choose the best one thousand debaters.
The reward was ten thousand military merits of the Notre-Dame, one day of one-on-one guidance from the Half-saint incarnation, a chance to comprehend the starry sky under Fang Yun's guidance, a Starlight Cleansing Body, and one thousand taels of gold.
The third was the Golden Sentence Prize, where the best one hundred Golden Sentences would be chosen.
The reward would be a chance to cleanse the body with Holy Qi.
The fourth was the Top 100 Prize, where each position would choose one hundred outstanding debaters. Different levels of rewards would be given according to the position.
The common reward was one day of one-on-one guidance from the Half-saint incarnation, which could be received at the same time as the Thousand People Prize.
The fifth prize was a mixed prize, including the Most Humorous, Most Ironic, Most Intelligent, Stupidest, Most Incisive, and Most Profound. There were six prizes in total, and three people would be chosen for each prize.
The prizes were the same as the Golden Sentence Prize.
The sixth and last prize was the Champion Prize, with one winner for each side. It was the final prize of this debate. The winner could choose any one of the five Half-saint incarnations to be his disciple.
Except for the sixth prize, all the prizes could be transferred to children. Children newly recognized after the start of the debate were not included, or they would be disqualified. All debating activities were against the rules. Once discovered, they would be stripped of their position and talent!
The article stipulated that because the list was open to all humans, the large screens in the Divine Temples would be opened in vernacular so that everyone who could read could understand.
At the end of the article, there was a small line of words.
"The final interpretation of this debate belongs to Fang Yun."
After reading the article, the human scholars did not pay attention to the last line of words at all. They only felt their blood boiling!
The human race was boiling!
The Flesh Incarnation Fruit was a divine item that many injured people dreamed of. It could not be bought even if they had money.
Gold and silver didn't mean much, but 10,000 military merits from a Notre-Dame was equivalent to the lifetime military merits of an ordinary Hanlin Academy student!
The mysterious Holy Land definitely couldn't be bad. It would definitely increase the chances of ordinary people reaching the Wen rank.
As for the one-day guidance from Half-saint's incarnation, that was a blessing that could not be obtained even in ten lifetimes. With the guidance of Half-saint, even the most ordinary scholar would have the opportunity to become a Grand Scholar!
Half-saint's guidance was not an ordinary answer. Instead, it contained the power of the Divine Path and directly imprinted some knowledge into one's mind. One's body would act according to that power. As long as one was not an idiot, one would become more and more outstanding.
As for the Holy Qi Cleansing Body or the Literary Starlight Cleansing Body, it could directly improve one's strength and even talent. It was something that all disciples of aristocratic families dreamed of.
There was no need to even mention the champion's prize. After becoming Half-saint's personal disciple, the rest of the rewards were no longer important.
All of Half-saint's personal disciples, except for those who died in accidents, became great scholars!
It could even be said that the champion's prize was the Great Confucian Prize. For Grand Scholars or Great Confucian Scholars, it could be the Great Literati Prize or the Great Literati Prize!
The moment they finished reading the article, a large number of scholars directly chose to participate in the debate, regardless of whether they had scolded Lu Mei 'er or not.
Then … the list suddenly turned dark.
Then, all the scholars received a letter from the Notre-Dame. Because there were too many scholars participating in the debate, there was not enough power to maintain the list and it was forced to stop. Fang Sheng had already made his move. After 15 minutes, the list returned to normal.
This 15 minutes was the longest 15 minutes in the Saint Origin World.
After 15 minutes, the list reappeared.
The thirsty scholars clicked on Fang Yun's article with red eyes, fearing that they would be disqualified.
After seeing that they had successfully participated in the debate, many people heaved a sigh of relief.
Even if they had obtained the correct identity and had to prove that Lu Mei 'er should be a scholar, not many people felt sad, helpless, or any other negative emotions. Instead, they immediately thought: How can I debate for Lu Mei' er to win the prize?
Suddenly, the first reply appeared under the article.
"Is there anyone?"
Everyone saw that the author was a scholar and smiled. Then, they saw that at the bottom right of the reply, there was an image of a thumb, with the caption "Like".
"Genius!" Countless people praised the person who set up this debate for having a wild and imaginative idea.
Then, some people clicked on the "Like" button.
Then, a line of red words appeared under the first reply: "This reply has nothing to do with the debate. First warning, if you violate the ban again, you will be banned!"
Everyone's heart trembled. It must be Half-saint's clone monitoring this place.
Thus, the reply section of the article was empty.
It was not that they were afraid, it was not that they did not want to say anything, it was that everyone was trying their best to think.
No one was an idiot. Therefore, everyone knew that if their words were not classic enough, special enough, or not attractive enough, it could very well inspire other people and make a wedding dress for them.
Thus, if they did not have enough confidence, they should not speak carelessly.
"If Lu Mei 'er is a scholar, then won't we scholars become a place to hide filth? The name of scholars cannot be tarnished! "
The person who replied was a scholar from Wu Guo.
When they saw the real first reply, everyone suddenly realized that they had made a mistake. Whether or not they could get the reward was still unknown. There were many people who were smarter than them. Instead of being overwhelmed by the replies later on, they might as well say something that was normal at the beginning and get familiar with the others.
This was the Literary Name!
Almost everyone knew this scholar. His name was Zhang Mingxiong. A few breaths ago, the entire human race knew who he was!
With the title of the first official speaker of the first debate in human history, he would immediately become a famous scholar of the state. He might even appear in the examination papers of some ordinary academies!
Thus, many people joined the debate with deep regret.
"Brother Mingxiong, you're wrong! Lu Mei 'er's evil deeds, is she better than the rebels or worse than the Lei family? If Lu Mei 'er can stain the name of scholars, then scholars have never been clean from the beginning! "
"Lu Mei 'er is naturally not a gentleman, but scholars are judged by their talents! Even the Sages can't distinguish between morality and inferiority. Judging a scholar based on morality is the most absurd! "
Zhang Mingxiong was immediately counterattacked. Following that, the people on the opposing side began to counterattack.
At the beginning, both sides were polite and could maintain their calm.
However, as the debate progressed, most people could not control their emotions and began to debate with all their might.
Many people attacked or insulted, but were mercilessly muted.
Thus, the debate turned into a vegetable market. It was a mess.
There were many moral role models, old scholars who were righteous shook their heads and sighed. "People's hearts are not what they used to be …" After saying that, they replied seriously and passionately that Lu Mei 'er should become a scholar.
The 16th of March was the big day when the results of the scholar examinations were released, but no one cared about the scholars.
Including the parents of the scholars.
They were all concerned about the scholars of other families.
