The Three Character Classic was of little use to the quasi-saint families, but it was of great use to the Half-saint families, especially to the Half-saint families that lacked enlightenment. The Three Character Classic was like adding wings to a tiger, making up for the family's shortcomings. .
It would be useless for scholars to learn the Three Character Classic, but it was more useful for children to learn the Three Character Classic than for them to learn the Sages' Classics directly.
Books like the Three Character Classic could be used as a foundation for future scholars.
From then on, the children would stand on a higher foundation and read the Sages' Classics. Their average achievements would definitely surpass those who did not read the Three Character Classic.
"One billion!" the chief manager of the Mozi family said.
During Mozi's time, the Mohist ideology was not weak. Mozi was born in a war-torn era that was not unified. The warlords were at war, and the common people were miserable. Thus, "Love with Impartiality and Non-Aggression" became the main ideology of the Mohist family, and it also made Mozi.
But as the human race left the Warring States Period and entered the unified Qin Dynasty, the ideology of the Mohist family declined, and the School of Miscellany and Legalism flourished.
The Mohist family did not immerse themselves in the glory of the past, and they did not even advocate the supremacy of the Mohist path. Instead, they silently let the "Love with Impartiality and Non-Aggression", which was not suitable for this era, take a back seat. Love with Impartiality and Non-Aggression was not wrong, and it even had great power, but this kind of path could not allow the Mohist family to continue developing.
The Mohist family also silently abolished Mozi's "non-music" ideology. Mozi believed that music was useless, and that it was a waste of the monarch's wealth and the people's energy. But later on, the Mohist family discovered that when the material foundation accumulated to a certain extent, music, which involved the spiritual level, was not only useful, but also extremely useful. Moreover, the war song had always been useful.
After the death of Mozi, the Mohist path was in chaos. The path was divided into three parts, and after a revolution, a new path was established.
Now. The Mohist family's "Bright Spirit" and "Heaven's Will" became the main paths of the Mohist family. However, Bright Spirit no longer believed in the existence of ghosts and gods, but instead respected and summarized the experience of the predecessors. Heaven's Will also completely stripped away the commonalities with Legalism, and became grasping the laws of the heavens. These two paths of the Mohist family's mechanical techniques advanced by leaps and bounds.
The New Mohist family, which used Bright Spirit and Heaven's Will as their main paths, rose rapidly after a short period of decline. However, the Mohist family's inheritance, and Legalism's teachings, so they wanted the Three Character Classic.
Apart from the scholarly clans, all the other clans had a strong demand for the Three Character Classic. They all wanted to make up for the shortcomings of their family's Saint Path.
When the number of one billion was announced, there was a brief silence in the auction house.
Most of the Holy Clans had been passed down for hundreds of years and could be said to be incomparably wealthy. However, in order to maintain the status of the Holy Clans, they had to spend a lot of money. Other than the capital cities and trade cities, the most prosperous cities were basically near the fiefdoms of the Holy Clans.
The rising Chen Sheng Aristocratic Family wasn't considered much, but Quasi-sage Xun Family had monopolized the entire Xun County. Just the monthly allowance given to the scholars in the clan was calculated in the tens of millions of taels. In addition to the expenses for ancestral worship, the expenses for weddings and funerals, the expenses for the private army, and the ancient land, it could be said to be a bottomless pit. There were a few years when the expenses were so high that the Xun family had no choice but to sell the divine items in the ancient land.
At such times. The power of aristocratic families was built on the foundation of their wealth. Even if they knew that the cost was too high, they still had to grit their teeth because they didn't want to spend money now. In the future, when the demons and barbarians launched a large-scale attack, they would have to pay with even more lives.
One billion taels of silver meant that ordinary aristocratic families would have to sell large amounts of treasures and even divine items to gather such a sum.
If that was all. Some aristocratic families were willing to pay, but the problem now was that one billion wasn't the final price. It might even be the beginning of the battle.
According to the usual practice, when the price of an item exceeded one billion taels of silver, a higher value divine item would be added on top of the one billion taels of silver. After all, for the upper class of the human race, silver was only needed to maintain their luxurious lives. Only divine items could strengthen the family's power.
The manager of the Sun Clan said, "One billion taels of silver and Ancestor Sun's holy blood!"
This price almost caused the auction house to explode.
"This is crazy! That's Sun's holy blood! Although the Half-saint of the human race has fallen, the will in the blood is still there. It is living blood. Unlike the Half-saint of the demons and barbarians, his holy blood becomes dead blood after his death, and its power is greatly reduced. "
"If the Military Scholar can send Ancestor Sun's holy blood to the Military Scholar's Wen Tai for worship, the Wen Tai's power will at least double after it is absorbed!"
"As expected of the cunning Military Scholar! Using Ancestor Sun's holy blood to bid, not only will there be a great chance of obtaining the "Three Character Classic", but it will also tempt Fang Xusheng to deeply cultivate the Military Scholar! After Fang Xusheng becomes a Scholar, if he condenses the Military Scholar's Wen Tai, he will be considered half a Military Scholar. It will only benefit the Military Scholar! "
"These Military Scholars are all scheming!"
In the high level transactions of the myriad worlds, holy blood could often be used as a standard to measure the value of divine items.
Half-saint's holy blood was already very valuable, and Sun's holy blood was even more top-notch among Half-saint's holy blood. In the scholarly rankings, Sun's position was equal to the ten most famous Half-saint disciples of Confucius, the "Ten Sages of Confucius".
However, the value of Sun's holy blood far surpassed any of the Ten Sages of Confucius.
After hearing this, Fang Yun lightly shook his head. In all fairness, the value of the first "Three Character Classic" would certainly far exceed Sun's holy blood. However, the value of the "Three Character Classic" in the auction was absolutely not comparable to Sun's holy blood.
The words of the manager of the Sun Clan were equivalent to suppressing ninety percent of the Half-saint clans.
The manager of the Chen Clan spoke like spring thunder, "Fang Xusheng, let's make a deal. We will use two drops of Chen Clan's holy blood and one billion taels of silver to bid for the" Three Character Classic ", and then exchange it for Sun's holy blood and one billion taels of silver. How about it?"
"Does your Chen Clan not need to add anything else?" Fang Yun laughed.
Everyone laughed. They all knew that both sides were joking.
The auctioneer said, "Everyone, the Sun Clan bids one billion taels of silver and one drop of Sun's holy blood. Is there a higher bid? As long as you take out a divine item that surpasses Sun's holy blood and one billion taels of silver, the great work of Xusheng, the "Three Character Classic", which contains the great path of enlightenment, is yours. "
"My Western Sea Dragon Palace bids one billion taels of silver and one drop of Dragon Saint's true blood. That Dragon Saint has roamed the myriad worlds and is still alive. His value is higher than Sun's holy blood!"
The auctioneer laughed and said, "Since it is Dragon Saint's true blood, its power will naturally surpass Sun's holy blood. As everyone knows, the holy blood of Dragons is far stronger than the other races. The holy path and life force contained within it are no small matter. If it is used by a private army, it might be able to create a peak level Demon King! "
Fang Yun's heart was moved. He had more than ten drops of holy blood, and they were all gifts from various clans. It would be difficult for him to use them all in a short period of time. If he used them to strengthen his private army, then the short-term benefits would be the greatest. The only problem was that the loyalty of these private soldiers was a problem. It was not worth using holy blood to nurture them.
Holy blood was the strongest private army that the human race could nurture. Even the Kong Clan was not willing to nurture them.
"The Western Sea Dragon Palace bids one drop of Dragon Saint's living blood. Is there a higher bid?" The auctioneer asked.
The manager of the Sun Clan gently shook his head. If Sun Sheng was still alive, adding one more drop of holy blood wouldn't be a big deal. However, Sun Sheng had already fallen. Every drop of holy blood he used was one drop less.
Not only the Sun Clan, but many managers of other clans had completely given up on bidding. The "Three Character Classic" was good, but the price was too high. No matter what, they couldn't compete with the Dragons.
But even after a long time, no one bid.
Ao Huang was angry and said, "Ao Qingyue, you turtle egg! You actually lost to the Western Sea Dragon Palace! This dragon represents the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace to bid one drop of Grandpa Dragon Saint's blood, one drop of ordinary Dragon Saint's blood, and one billion taels of silver! "
The Azure Robed Dragon Marquis remained motionless.
