There are a total of sixteen areas in the entire imperial domain.
These sixteen areas are like sixteen territories.
Although each area varies in size, these sixteen areas are generally large.
Nandou area.
As one of the sixteen regions.
Located at the southernmost part of the imperial domain.
The biggest feature of this area is that it is a vast sea area.
It is also the only sea area in the imperial domain.
The Nandou area is an island in this sea area.
Although it is an island.
But given the huge size of this island, it can be regarded as a continent.
The entire Nandou area is divided into West Island and East Island.
When the flying boat of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect arrived above the island in the Nan Dou area, Xiao Shi and Xiang Zi actually stood on the flying boat and looked down at the huge island below.
Both of them looked solemn.
Before coming.
Xiang Zizhen had already told Xiao Shi in detail about the competition for the Nan Dou area.
Xiao Shi learned from this...
Usually, the Wumo Realm's refining of an area is divided into two important steps.
The first step is to refine the regional geomagnetic veins.
This is because the geomagnetic veins in each area are different.
Therefore, the method of refining will also be different.
Specific situation.
We have to wait until Xiang Zizheng arrives in the Nandou area to find out the veins of the land in this area and how to refine them.
But since the Nandou area is an island.
Then I believe that the refining of the earth veins in the Nan Dou area is probably related to this sea area.
This is also one of Xiang Zizhen's disadvantages.
After all, none of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect has the ability to master the sea, and the sea itself is not what the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect is good at.
And Xiang Zizhen is his competitor this time.
It just so happens that I am more proficient in the sea area.
Secondly, another key point in regional refining lies in luck!
But the luck here.
It was somewhat different from the fortune that Xiao Shi had previously known.
The luck here does not refer to luck in general.
It's a support rate.
To put it simply.
It is necessary to get the support of the warriors in this area.
From the Martial Demon Realm to the Martial Realm.
Only with the support of these warriors can one condense his own destiny.
If you don't have enough luck.
It is difficult to succeed in regional refining.
In this competitive environment, the competition for luck becomes even more important.
in this regard…
Xiang Zizheng is still at a disadvantage!
The other party came to the Nan Dou area before him and had been here for a long time, winning over most of the warriors.
It can be said that most of the warriors in the Nan Dou area are now on the side of Xiang Zizheng's competitor this time.
This will make Xiang Zizhen very passive.
What Xiang Zi really didn't expect was...
After his arrival this time, the place he was going to take charge of was actually Dongdao!
When Prince Dawu decided to let Xiang Zizhen and the powerful martial demon from Wu Pavilion fight for the area this time, he let the two of them take charge of the West Island and the East Island respectively.
Xiang Zizheng originally thought that he would take charge of West Island after his arrival.
But I didn’t expect it to be Dongdao!
Based on the information he had previously obtained.
His competitor started his career from Dongdao.
Now the other party is obviously deliberately giving up East Island.
The reason is simple.
Now all the warriors of Dongdao are supporters of the other side. They will inevitably resist the newly arrived Xiang Zizheng.
If Xiang Zi really wants to get these warriors to support him again, it will definitely be more difficult than Xi Dao.
It was like he had entered the enemy camp.
To transform the enemy camp into your own camp.
This is one aspect.
on the other hand.
When his competitors were developing in Dongdao, they had already completed the refining of most of Dongdao's geomagnetic veins.
In this way.
If Xiang Zi really wants to refine Dongdao, he must cover the other party's previous refining.
This would increase the difficulty of his refining exponentially!
This made Xiang Zizheng look solemn.
It's not that he didn't think about the fact that the battle for the Nan Dou region this time would be difficult.
But I didn’t expect my disadvantage to be so great!
As the Prince Dawu who decided all this behind the scenes, it is impossible for him not to be aware of these circumstances.
But he chose to acquiesce.
No fairness was given to Xiang Zizheng.
This is also what makes Xiang Zi feel the coldest.
Even though he had made such great contributions, he was not even willing to be given the title of Saint, especially since he was Chen Yuan's disciple.
If Xiao Shi really were to claim the credit himself...
He really couldn't imagine how low the reward given by the Dawu Dynasty would be.
"… Prince Dawu appears to be fair, but in reality, his tacit approval can be considered as an internal decision."
Xiao Shi said in a deep voice.
There was also a fire burning in their hearts.
Although he did not encounter any major crisis when he was in the sealed place of the Eye of the Emperor.
But that doesn't mean it's not dangerous inside.
on the contrary.
It is a demigod place with rules.
Even the Lord of Xingluo has not been able to take out the Eye of the Emperor after all these years, and ordinary people who enter it have a chance of death.
I can take out the Eye of Emperor's Judgement from it. This is my ability.
That doesn't mean it's an easy task.
But after making such a huge contribution.
They didn't even give us a chance to compete fairly.
Instead, we're making an internal decision here.
"The more you don't give me, the more I want!"
“I deserve this in itself!”
There was a fire in Xiao Shi's eyes.
He has never been the kind of person who would not fight back after being bullied.
Even if the other party is Prince Dawu.
No way!
He had already made up his mind.
This saintly title...
He must help Xiang Zizhen get it!
What belongs to him, no one can take it away from him!
"Don't worry, I will do my best to help you. This saint spot will definitely be ours."
Xiao Shi said in a serious voice.
Xiang Zizheng nodded.
It was obvious that his strength and cultivation were far stronger than Xiao Shi's, but for some reason, the other party's words gave him immense confidence.
It made him feel like he had been given a shot of adrenaline.
Even when faced with a huge disadvantage, I suddenly gained enough confidence.
soon.
The huge flying boat belonging to the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect began to descend.
Directly entered the East Island in the Nandou area.
And at the moment of entering East Island.
An extremely huge statue then appeared in the sight of Xiao Shi and Xiang Zizhen.
This is a statue of a handsome young man.
His eyebrows are very long, and even in the statue, his face reveals an arrogant and haughty attitude.
There is also a kind of temperament that only exists in geniuses.
The entire statue is extremely huge.
It stands on the ground, with the sky above its head and the clouds only sparsely surrounding its waist. A warrior needs to look very hard to barely see it from a distance.
The moment I saw this statue.
Xiao Shi and Xiang Zizhen's expressions had already turned gloomy.
They all know.
The statue in front of them is their competitor this time.
The genius from Wu Pavilion, Rong Sufei!
Usually, only after completing regional refining and becoming a saint, will one build a statue of oneself in one's own territory, so that the warriors in the territory can worship it.
But now Rong Sufei has not yet refined the Nan Dou area, but he has already built his own statue, and he has built the statue on the East Island...
The intention is self-evident.
This was to intimidate Xiang Zizheng while telling him at the same time.
"I'm determined to take this Nandou area. No matter how hard you try, it will be useless."
At the same time, he was also deliberately revealing a piece of information to Xiang Zizheng.
That is Rong Sufei today. He is the popular choice of the people in the entire Dongdao Island.
After all, without the approval of the warriors in Dongdao, he would not be able to build this statue.
The moment I saw this statue.
No matter whether it was Xiang Zizhen or Xiao Shi, they both had the urge to smash the statue to pieces with one punch!
If this statue is allowed to remain here, it will not only be a mockery to Xiang Zizheng, but will also allow Rong Sufei's will to continue to exist here.
It can be said that as long as this statue stays here for one day.
It is really impossible for Xiang Zi to control Dongdao!
Although anger was filling my heart.
But Xiang Zi really knew.
I really can't destroy this statue directly now.
If I destroy this statue regardless of the consequences, I will never be able to win the support of the people in Dongdao.
Usually this kind of image exists.
In addition to being a symbol of identity and status.
There are also some other effects.
For example, it can bring an improvement in the training of the warriors on East Island, as well as suppress some bad luck.
Different images.
Often there are different effects.
But they can all bring benefits to the warriors in this area.
If I destroy this statue now.
The first to suffer were the warriors from East Island.
Naturally, it will be difficult to gain their support and admiration.
Rong Sufei obviously also noticed this point.
I'm sure Xiang Zi really doesn't dare to destroy his statue.
Only then did he dare to build his own statue on Dongdao Island with great fanfare.
Xiang Zizhen took a deep breath.
Suppressed the anger in my heart.
He turned his gaze to Xiao Shi who was standing aside.
Ask Xiao Shi for his opinion.
Xiao Shi stared at the statue in front of him with a deep gaze, but there was a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"In ten days, I will make it disappear!"
Although he also wanted to destroy the statue directly at this moment, he knew that he could not act recklessly under such circumstances.
Patience is required.
After all, Xiang Zizhen is currently at a disadvantage in all aspects.
If Xiang Zizheng were to do something that would anger everyone at this time, it would be extremely disadvantageous to him.
certainly.
They certainly couldn't allow the statue to remain there forever.
It needs to be destroyed as soon as possible.
soon.
Their flying boat landed in Dongdou City, the main city of Dongdao Island.
The entire Dongdou City is very prosperous and huge.
However, when they arrived, they did not see the person who came to pick them up.
This made Xiao Shi and Xiang Zizheng, who were already full of anger, even more furious.
Under normal circumstances.
Now that Xiang Zizheng is the ruler of Dongdao, the lord of Dongdou City must come to greet him in person.
But after he arrived.
But there was no one in sight.
Until an hour later.
A fat, bald old man with a big belly came with a group of people.
Although it looks a bit unremarkable.
However, this old man's cultivation has already reached the Martial Demon Realm.
He is the mayor of Dongdou City.
"Zou Xiang pays respect to the priest."
With a respectful look on his face, he took the lead and paid his respects to Xiang Zizheng.
Although his expression was respectful, his eyes concealed displeasure and disdain.
The same was true for the people behind him.
Xiang Zizheng looked expressionlessly at the city lord Zou Xiang who was respectful in front of him.
From the fact that the other party deliberately came late to greet him, one can see how these people treat him.
No matter how respectful they appear to be.
Deep down, I dislike and hate myself.
For these people...
They don't care what great contributions Xiang Zizhen has made to the Dawu Dynasty.
All they care about is their own interests.
Although Xiang Zizheng's contribution this time will make the entire Dawu Dynasty stronger, it will not bring any improvement to the middle and lower class people like them.
At least at this stage.
They will remain where they are and nothing will change.
That is to say.
In the eyes of these "common people" in the Dawu Dynasty, the contributions made by Xiang Zizhen could only make them exclaim, "Awesome! Awesome!"
They would not support Xiang Zizheng just because of his contributions.
And before Xiang Zizhen arrived.
Rong Sufei has been doing business in Dongdao for some time.
It brought many benefits to the warriors here and won their support.
Now that Rong Sufei is gone, they have lost all these benefits all of a sudden. In addition, before Rong Sufei left, he deliberately created the impression that they were being forcibly driven away.
These warriors were already feeling indignant about Rong Sufei being "driven away".
In addition, there were some operations that Rong Sufei performed before leaving.
This made the warriors from Dongdao have an extremely bad impression of Xiang Zizhen!
Xiang Zi really had a premonition.
If I were to destroy the statue of Rong Su now.
I’m afraid that the warriors of East Island will riot collectively in an instant!
By then, forget about gaining their support; I'm afraid a conflict that will be difficult to resolve will break out between the two sides in an instant.
This made Xiang Zizheng frown.
He felt that he couldn't even care about the problem of these people coming to greet him late.
Otherwise, it will make you look worse in their eyes.
To this.
He took a deep breath.
Suppressed the anger in my heart.
Treat these people kindly.
Xiao Shi remained silent.
He knows.
Now they are passive.
After all, the other party had taken the initiative and had already created a very bad impression for them before they arrived.
As a result, as soon as they arrived, they were resisted by the warriors from Dongdao.
If they express any dissatisfaction because of the resistance of these warriors, the conflict between the two sides will immediately escalate.
It will be even more difficult to end then.
To resolve this situation.
It’s actually not that difficult.
As long as they give more benefits to the warriors of Dongdao and change their views, they will naturally gain their support.
After all.
These warriors are all very realistic.
They will support whoever gives them more benefits.
But Rong Sufei must also know this truth.
Since he dares to do this.
This means that he had given a lot of benefits before, and he knew that Xiang Zizheng would definitely not be able to give more benefits than him!
This is his winning point!
