"Discuss the Dharma?"
Yu Dajiang said in surprise, "Just ignore him."
Ding Xuanxiu did not say anything.
Yu Dajiang looked at him and frowned. "Why, can't I?"
Ding Xuanxiu tried his best to explain. "We Daoists believe that a battle is a discussion of the Dharma. If you don't accept the challenge, then what you say is most likely unreasonable, and then it will be difficult to convince others."
Yu Dajiang felt that it was inconceivable, but he really did not understand the affairs of Daoists. He said, "Then accept the challenge. Can Ding Xuanxiu defeat him?"
Ding Xuanxiu said with shame, "This is Monk Hunjang from the fourth chapter of the book. Looking at his seal, he has made a lot of contributions in the past. And this person has been staying in the outer layer for a long time recently, so he must have gone through a lot of training. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for me to defeat him …"
Yu Dajiang said matter-of-factly, "Then find someone else. There must be someone who can defeat him, right?"
Ding Xuanxiu did not respond for a moment.
Yu Dajiang stared at him with wide eyes. "Are you saying that no one can defeat him?"
Ding Xuanxiu did not know how to explain.
He could not say that the people the Tenki-in Hall could recruit were mostly unsatisfied Xuanxiu, and their battle abilities were on the weak side. The reason was very simple. He had his own abilities, so why should he care about the attitude of the Tenki-in Hall? It was more appropriate for the Tenki-in Hall to flatter him.
Yu Dajiang saw that he did not say anything, and his expression suddenly became ugly. He suppressed his displeasure and said, "Is there no other way?"
Ding Xuanxiu said helplessly, "There is no other way at the moment. The only way is to find someone who can discuss the Dharma with him and defeat him in battle."
Yu Dajiang could not help but say angrily, "Ridiculous! How can you use brute force to determine whether the Dharma is right or wrong? How can you be so violent! So barbaric! "
These words were not wrong. Reason was reason, and strength was strength. But this was how cultivators acknowledged it. In their eyes, these two were one and the same. If you don't even dare to come out and discuss the Dao, what right do you have to say that what you say is reasonable? No matter how loud you say it, it's useless.
In fact, Yu Dajiang made use of Xuanxiu to slander him as a way to suppress others. He naturally didn't feel that there was anything wrong with how he treated others, but now that it was someone else's turn to treat him like this, he felt that he couldn't stand it anymore.
Long Daisen said, "Yu Dajiang, don't be anxious. Since it's like this, let's find someone who can stand up for this matter. At worst, we'll just have to pay a price."
He looked at Ding Xuanxiu and said, "Ding Xuanxiu, you should know some powerful cultivators, right?"
Ding Xuanxiu thought for a while and said cautiously, "If the two of you are willing to pay a sufficient price, I can try to find some people."
Long Daisen said, "That's what I said. As long as there are benefits, what kind of people can't you invite? If you really can't invite them, then the benefits are not enough. "
Yu Dajiang thought for a while and said, "Ding Xuanxiu, go and invite people. What's the price? Come back and tell us. I don't ask for anything else. We must win, we must win!"
Ding Xuanxiu cupped his hands and bowed. He didn't dare to make a promise, so he said, "I will do my best."
Yu Dajiang said, "This matter can't be delayed any longer. Go immediately. It's best to have a result in one or two days."
Ding Xuanxiu nodded to the two of them and quickly walked out.
Long Daisen watched him leave. He turned to look at Yu Dajiang, who was rather agitated, and said, "Brother Yu, don't worry. Ding Xuanxiu has always been reliable."
Yu Dajiang said in a low voice, "We can only rely on him now."
He had originally planned to use the criticism to make some hesitant Xuanxiu choose to continue to wait and see. He would think of a solution after the Tianji Headquarter intervened. However, this matter had disrupted his plan.
He was vexed and said to himself, "I need to urge the Headquarter. I hope they understand the pros and cons of this matter and don't ignore it."
In the Dongting Xuanfu, Yue Luo was meditating after talking to Yingxiong. When she was done with her homework, she heard a light voice. Her eyes lit up and she hurriedly called out Xuntian Dao Zhang. She saw that Yingxiong had already made some criticisms against those slanderous words.
There were no embellishments in his words. They were straightforward and simple. It wasn't hard to see that Monk Hunjang, who blamed Zhi Jian's true spirit, was actually himself. Even if he didn't have Zhi Jian's true spirit, these problems would still be the same. It was just that he blamed Zhi Jian's true spirit.
There were some parts that she didn't quite understand, but those that she could understand, she went forward to support and praise. She even told Ding Ying about it.
However, in such a short time, there were immediately people who came forward to refute. However, these words were pale and powerless at the moment.
This was because although there were many people who objected, no one dared to accept the book challenge behind these criticisms.
Yue Luo immediately understood the intention behind these words. She couldn't help but praise them in her heart.
The reason why a fight of magical powers was called a discussion of magical powers was that it wasn't just a contest of brute force like Yu Dajiang thought. A fight of magical powers was a test of one's skills and abilities. If there were any problems in one's body, they would be exposed in the fight.
For example, these cultivators claimed that they used Zhi Jian's true spirit to cause many problems. If they didn't use it, would there really be no problems? This couldn't be explained clearly in Xuntian Dao Zhang, but it could be done in a fight of magical powers. A discussion of magical powers could directly solve one's problems.
However, at the same time, she was very worried. Once this book challenge was out, there would definitely be people who would accept it. She didn't know if Senior Ying could deal with these people. It had to be known that there wasn't just one opponent, but many. It would be fine if he won, but what if he lost? Would Senior Ying's reputation be damaged?
Because the response to this matter couldn't be too slow, under Yu Dajiang's urging, Ding Xuanxiu found a Monk Hunjang who had a rather high level of skills within a day. He was also an outer layer cultivator. Because he saw that Yingxiong didn't seem to be famous in the past, he accepted the challenge and accepted the book challenge in Xuntian Dao Zhang.
After the two sides agreed on a date for the discussion of magical powers, they fought in the Kui Su Wasteland. This battle also attracted many cultivators to watch.
However, the result of this battle was very surprising. All the cultivators thought that this battle would not be evenly matched, and that there would be some exchanges, but the result was that the two cultivators only clashed once, and that cultivator admitted defeat.
Solemnly, this monk bowed to Yingxiong after the battle. After he returned, he returned the benefits given to him by the Tenki-in Hall. Not only that, he returned it double. Then, he went into seclusion. During this process, he didn't mention a single word about this battle.
When Yu Dajiang heard the news, he was very angry. Fortunately, because the battle didn't really fight this time, it caused some controversy, and there was still room for negotiation.
Just as he was thinking of ways to remedy the situation, the person from Yujing's Tianji General Department finally arrived.
At first glance, this was a young man who looked very fair, but Yu and Long didn't dare to slight him. This was because they knew that this master craftsman named Xie Jiao was under the tutelage of a grandmaster craftsman in the Ministry of Heavenly Works. Moreover, he only looked young on the surface, but in reality, he was close to fifty years old.
After looking at the recent arrangement of the two, Xie Jiao said, "Yu Dajiang, you did the right thing. You can't let this continue, but the next step is a little inappropriate."
Yu Dajiang was a little unconvinced. He said, "What's inappropriate?"
Xie Jiao said with a relaxed expression, "Since you've already lost for a while, you shouldn't pin your hopes on those cultivators anymore. Even if you win against this person, it can't completely prove that there's a problem with the true spirit of Zhijian."
Yu Dajiang thought about it and felt that it made sense. He asked for advice, "Then what should we do?"
Xie Jiao smiled and said, "Yu Dajiang, look at the long-term. Could it be that only cultivators can win? Why did you restrain the true spirit of Zhijian? It's to make these Xuanxiu continue to accept our 'Observer'. Then we can use the person who carries the 'Observer' to defeat the Xuanxiu who uses Zhijian's true spirit. Wouldn't that be more convincing? "
Yu Dajiang suddenly understood. He said, "Armored soldiers?"
His heart skipped a beat. Recently, he heard that the Yujing's craftsmanship had made some breakthroughs. However, this was only a rumor and hadn't been confirmed. Now, it seemed that it was very likely to be true.
Xie Jiao called out, "Commandant Bao, please come in."
The sound of steady footsteps came from the door, and then a skinny middle-aged man walked in. He cupped his fists at the people present, and because he was a lieutenant, the two master craftsmen, Yu and Long, returned the greeting with a serious expression.
Xie Jiao said, "This is Yujing's Armored Commandant Bao Neng. The black armor he wears is made by the Tianji Institute. It's better than the previous armor and can exert more power. We've secretly found some monsters and some middle-level cultivators to compete with, but no one can beat Commandant Bao. It's just that it hasn't been revealed to the public yet.
However, I'm thinking that we might as well use this opportunity to use Yingxiong as a stepping stone to spread the power of this armor. It's also telling the Yujing and Xuanting higher-ups that many things that cultivators can bear, our armored soldiers can also bear. The higher-ups don't have to blindly side with Xuanxiu. "
Yu Dajiang couldn't help but nod. In the past few years, because of the appearance of Xuntian Dao Zhang, most of the students who graduated from the Institute chose to become cultivators. On the contrary, fewer and fewer people joined the Tenki-in Hall.
Tenki-in Hall's master craftsmen and even ordinary craftsmen were still possible for ordinary people if they worked hard. However, people like the master craftsmen had to be outstanding talents.
However, if these people all ran off to cultivate, who would promote creation? If this continued, it wouldn't take long. In a few years or even a decade, creation would definitely decline.
Moreover, now that Xuanxiu was even involved with the Observers, they had to respond.
He thought for a moment and said, "Master Xie, I don't know much about cultivators. I mean, if Commandant Bao wins, will those cultivators accept it?"
Xie Jiao smiled and said to the two master craftsmen, "The winner is honored, while the loser is despicable. I've come out to ask some cultivators, and they said that they won't care about each other's identities. I have to say that in our opinion, this may not be the correct principle, but since it's accepted by the majority of cultivators, it's enough. "
