In Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun watched this scene quietly and did not stop it.
For that Lingxiao school elder surnamed Chu, if he did not change his original intention, this might be the best ending for him.
Ren Yichao, who had been standing quietly for a long time, finally came back to his senses.
He stepped forward and silently collected the other party's corpse.
Perhaps the other party wanted him to cut off his head and claim the credit.
However, Ren Yichao did not do it in the end.
After leaving the snow mountain, Ren Yichao felt as if a lifetime had passed.
The Lingxiao school's stubborn resistance was basically unable to escape death.
As the director of Tang, Yun Mo personally took action and killed his way into Qi's territory.
The director of Qi's territory had yet to be decided, and Lingxiao school had passed through Tang's territory. Yun Mo's actions were not considered crossing the line.
In the end, Lingxiao school's current sect master, Ning Heng, was personally killed by Yun Mo.
Lingxiao school would not become history just like that.
They still had a legacy in Chang 'an.
However, the Lingxiao school that vowed to fight against Eastern Tang to the end no longer existed.
When Ren Yichao returned from the north, his fellow disciples in Chang 'an looked at him with complicated expressions.
In the end, no one said anything.
Ren Yichao seemed to have changed into a different person.
He was still calm and capable, but compared to before, he had become taciturn.
At the same time, he was ruthless.
The highest cultivation level in Lingxiao school was only Ren Yichao's sixth realm martial artist.
However, after letting go of their burdens and concerns, they developed rapidly in Chang 'an, causing the other sects and aristocratic families to not dare to underestimate them.
Zhang Dongyun watched all of this calmly and stopped paying attention.
His gaze swept across the entire Invincible City's system.
Soon, he found another person who had completely changed.
An academy had been rebuilt on Pavilion Mountain.
The trees on the mountain were planted again, and they still looked a little sparse.
However, as Tingshan Academy took root here again, this place would soon return to its original appearance.
Zhang Dongyun's gaze landed on a classroom in the academy.
In the classroom, a young man was teaching a group of students who were about his age.
When the class was over, everyone respectfully bowed to their peers and left.
The young man packed up his textbooks and finally left.
When other instructors saw him, they sighed with emotion and said, "Chang 'an is going to hold the second material selection ceremony. Brother Li, aren't you going to attend?"
The young man shook his head slightly. "My knowledge is not solid enough, so I won't join in the fun this time. Let's talk about it next time."
"There are too many monks and too little gruel. If you go late, there might not be a place for you." The other party advised.
The young man smiled. "Then I'll stay and continue to teach the students. It's not a bad idea."
The other party lamented, "Your father was dissatisfied with the tyrannical rule of the Eastern Tang in the past and refused to enter the imperial court as an official. As a result, he was unable to fulfill his ambitions.
Now that the one in Chang 'an is finally in power, it's a pity that your father is no longer here. If you don't seize the opportunity, I'm afraid your father will feel sorry for you. "
The young man was Li Jun, the son of the former headmaster of Tingshan Academy, Li Zhibin.
In order to save him, Li Zhibin took the risk to go to Chang 'an to ask for the Reincarnation Pill.
As a result, the news was leaked and provoked the Eastern Tang dynasty to attack Tingshan.
In the end, Tingshan Academy was destroyed and the teachers and students suffered heavy casualties.
Li Zhibin himself brought up the rear for everyone, and thus became one with the pavilion.
When Li Jun heard the other party mention his father, he shook his head slightly. "As long as I don't disgrace my father, I'm satisfied."
"Sigh, it's a pity that Director Wan is now one of the chief examiners." The other party still felt sorry.
Li Jun frowned. "Director Wan is actually a person who plays favoritism?"
The other party waved his hand. "What are you talking about? What I meant was that Director Wan would not play favoritism as the chief examiner. If you take the exam with your own ability, you will be able to perform well. How can it be like the Eastern Tang dynasty? "
Li Jun said, "The Talent Selection Ceremony is to select capable people. I admit that I'm not talented enough to take on such a big responsibility."
In Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun watched this scene with interest.
As far as he knew, Li Jun used to be a young man who was impatient and impulsive.
When he was seriously injured, it was because he was impulsive and curious that he accidentally stumbled into a secret conversation. He was killed and almost died on the spot.
In a sense, his life was exchanged for by his father, Li Zhibin.
The current Li Jun's style of doing things was obviously different from before. He was much calmer.
It was not that he had become timid and inferior because of this, but he had become more self-conscious.
In Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun smiled.
Since the other party did not want to participate in the Talent Selection Ceremony, of course, no one would force him to go.
However, seeing that this kid was now calm and capable, and that his cultivation had improved from the fourth realm to the fifth realm of the Confucian school, when he had the confidence to participate in the Talent Selection Ceremony in the future, he believed that Wan Li, Xu Xingzhi, and the others would not miss this opportunity.
Zhang Dongyun smiled faintly and looked away from Tingshan Academy again.
He did not move in Daming Palace, but he had already seen all the people inside and outside Chang 'an.
After looking through all of them, Zhang Dongyun's figure disappeared from Daming Palace.
He walked out of the coverage of Invincible City's system, and his real body walked on the land of the Eastern Border outside the system's coverage.
Overall, there was no obvious difference between inside and outside.
Because Old Tang, Old Chu, and Old Zhou had been in possession for a long time, they were the most stable now and were all on the right track.
What happened to Qingyue County's Bifeng Sect happened everywhere. It was not a coincidence.
But overall, it was a very rare occurrence.
Once it happened, the local leaders would deal with it as soon as possible before it reached Chang 'an's ears.
The atmosphere in Old Liang was slightly worse, but it was also gradually moving closer to Chang 'an.
Because Old Qi, Old Jin, and Old Chen had just been in possession, they were still a little messy at the moment.
However, overall, everyone was looking forward to Chang 'an and was constantly moving closer to Chang' an.
Chang 'an's rules and decrees were unimpeded everywhere.
On the whole, there was a wild but active and vigorous air about them.
Seeing this, Zhang Dongyun nodded in satisfaction.
He specially went to the seaports of various places.
In the past, among the seven countries of the Eastern Border, Eastern Tang was in the center of the Eastern Border and did not have any land near the sea.
The other six countries were in four directions and were adjacent to the Huang Sea, overlooking the ocean.
The six dynasties used to have very advanced maritime trade and shipbuilding technology.
For example, Western Zhou and Nanchen were in the northwest and southeast of the Eastern Border.
The two countries were very far apart, and there was also the Eastern Tang Dynasty in between.
Bypassing the Eastern Tang Dynasty, one had to go through Northern Qi, Eastern Jin, Nanliang, and Western Chu.
When the two countries started trading, going around Nanliang, Western Chu, or Northern Qi and Eastern Jin by sea would save a lot of money.
The other dynasties that were geographically far away would basically use this method.
Northern Qi was in the North Sea. When the weather was too cold, there would be a large number of ambushes to obstruct ships. Comparatively, they did not have as much desire for maritime trade.
However, the other five countries were all major maritime traders.
Hence, they had a large number of shipbuilders.
However, they currently lacked a sea route and ships that could cross the Huang Sea from the Eastern Border to Middle Earth.
Being too far away was one thing. What was worse was that there were many dangerous places in the Huang Sea.
If ships went there, they would often end up in the stomachs of fish.
In fact, the little monk Hui Ming's realm was basically the lower limit of a person's ability to cross the Huang Sea alone.
His cultivation was exquisite, and he was very powerful. This was why he could cross the Huang Sea at Realm Seven.
Otherwise, if a storm came over, normal Realm Seven cultivators would easily be buried at the bottom of the sea.
The little monk Yongse could only come to Eastern Border because of his master Fa Ning.
This was an objective obstacle for the interaction between Middle Earth and Eastern Border.
However, now, the elite shipbuilders and shipbuilders of various countries were all gathered in the South Sea by Chang 'an.
Mr. Dark Cloud ordered everyone to work together to improve the craft and strive to build a new type of ship that could withstand the storms of the Huang Sea as soon as possible.
Chen Yu had even come here before to poach people.
In the end, he really managed to poach a group of talents.
Of course, Manager Chen of the Heavenly Works Hall was very open-minded. He definitely wouldn't refuse to return what he borrowed.
The shipbuilders he poached were more like sent to the Heavenly Works Hall in Chang 'an to further their studies.
Then, they were released one after another.
In Chen Yu's words, their line of work required continuous hands-on experiments.
Under his management, these shipbuilders gradually began to be reborn, just like the craftsmen in the weapons factory.
The name of the Mohist cultivation began to spread throughout the world.
Master Zhang looked at all this and nodded in satisfaction.
If he continued to expand Invincible City to the west, he would be able to expand Middle Earth sooner or later.
At that time, the Huang Sea that blocked the way between the two places naturally wouldn't be an obstacle to Zhang Dongyun's Invincible City system.
Even an ordinary mortal could freely travel between the Central Plains and the Eastern Border.
However, before that, Zhang Dongyun had the intention of hammering a nail into the Central Plains and setting up camp there.
This way, he would have a foothold. It would be more convenient for him to gather information on Middle Earth and recruit talents from Middle Earth, so that the men on the other side who wanted to join him would have less to worry about.
At the moment, Master Zhang lacked accurate information about the distance between Middle Earth and Eastern Border. Therefore, it was difficult for him to determine whether he could reach Middle Earth in the eighth expansion to the west.
Right now, he had to prepare for a rainy day and prepare some conventional methods.
At that time, the unconventional methods could even surprise the people of Middle Earth …
"One two … One two … One two …"
Under the sun, in the shipyard by the seaside, a large number of craftsmen worked together and gradually fixed the keel of a ship.
Zhang Dongyun nodded in satisfaction, then left the land of the Old Liang and returned north.
When he stepped into Invincible City, he instantly returned to the Great Ming Palace.
Sitting in the palace, Zhang Dongyun's hands were clasped in front of him. His ring finger and little finger were interlocked, and his middle finger, index finger, and thumb were facing each other.
He turned his gaze to the west.
Not only had Perfected Kong Hai in the South Sea been dealt with, but the shipyard was also in full swing.
It was also time to deal with the remnants of the Seven Nations in the West Sea.
Hu Ming had rushed to the West Sea and led the capable men of the Idle Sky Palace to operate. They had already gradually spread out a large-scale intelligence network.
With the existence of this network, Zhuo Zui, Cao Ranran, Li Jie, and the others could gradually catch the traces of the fleeing experts of Western Zhou and Western Chu.
