The criticism of the King of Chu was overwhelming on the discussion board. Even when Zhang Wankong was suspected of being a traitor, there was no such grand occasion as today.
Anyone who came to the defense of the King of Chu would be scolded by hundreds or thousands of scholars and forced to leave the discussion board.
Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief. This situation would inevitably anger the King of Chu, but it also meant that the King of Chu would not dare to secretly frame him again from now on.
Judging from the public opinion on the list, Fang Yun guessed that Zhu Fengqiong must have been fanning the flames, but he was just adding icing on the cake. However, in Zhu Fengqiong's view, he was providing timely help.
Fang Yun secretly used his official seal to go to the discussion list of Shengyuan Continent and found that the discussion list there was far less controversial than the discussion list of the literary world. Fang Yun wondered when did the people of Shengyuan Continent become so indifferent? They shouldn't treat even a person from the literary world like this.
Fang Yun read the articles on the discussion board carefully and suddenly realized that it was not that the scholars in Shengyuan Continent did not care about Zhang Longxiang's life or death, but that they did not think that Zhang Longxiang was in danger at all. This can be seen from the replies of many people. Most people were talking about Zhang Longxiang's future and whether he could compare with Fang Yun. No one mentioned that Zhang Longxiang was in danger.
It is precisely because the scholars of Shengyuan Continent have a preconceived notion that a person with such literary fame will not be in danger of his life, so more people do not talk about Zhang Longxiang himself, but only discuss his poems.
Soon, Fang Yun discovered that a small number of people had been praising Zhang Longxiang everywhere on the discussion board, which aroused the disgust of some people and he was attacked by those people. So the two sides began to debate constantly, making the discussion board very heated.
At first, Fang Yun thought that those who attacked Zhang Longxiang were sent by the Zong and Lei families to deliberately stir up controversy. However, after carefully recalling the information about those people, he found that they indeed had no connection with the Zong and Lei families, and it did not seem like they were deliberately stirring up controversy. He then carefully recalled the people who had scolded him on the discussion list that year, and found that these people were also among them.
They may not necessarily dislike Zhang Longxiang, but they think they are better than Zhang Longxiang and other celebrities. When they see Zhang Longxiang and others become famous, they are naturally dissatisfied and find an excuse to attack them.
Fang Yun ignored those people and went to read other articles on the discussion list. He discovered that in addition to Zhang Longxiang's matter, there was also a problem with the evaluation of the "Four Great Talents" in Shengyuan Continent. It should have been settled last year, but who knew that it would be delayed until now.
The people responsible for evaluating the four great talents have been arguing, and the core of the dispute is whether Lei Chongmo, the current head of the Lei family, is qualified to be the first of the four great talents of this generation.
Those who support Lei Chongmo use his abilities and contributions as examples, especially the unprecedented Jiaolong Wentai, which has great significance for the human race. Many people believe that Lei Chongmo may be like the ancestor of poetry, and open up a literary platform that many people can gather around.
The opposing side’s point of view was also very clear. The Lei family led by Lei Chongmo had done many heinous evil things and even wanted to harm a generation of virtual saints. Moreover, Lei Chongmo had a close relationship with the West Sea Dragon Palace.
Some people even made a joke that if the four great talents of the dragon clan were evaluated, Lei Chongmo would definitely be ranked first, but among the human race, he was not worthy.
Fang Yun discovered that the Lei family was also stuck in a quagmire because of this incident. In order to help Lei Chongmo win the title of the four great talents, he had been lobbying the saint families.
Fang Yun continued to look at the discussion board to learn about some things about the human race. He discovered that in addition to discussing long-standing topics such as imperial examinations and poetry, the other topics of discussion in the Shengyuan Continent mainly focused on the Battle of Bi Can in Liangjie Mountain and the southern invasion of the barbarians.
With the help of the water tribe, the barbarians suffered more casualties. The human race has counted that from the beginning of the war to now, the death toll of the barbarians has exceeded 30 million, and even if the human race is on the defense, more than 5 million people have been killed, and the death toll of the water tribe has exceeded 10 million.
The reason why the barbarians suffered heavy casualties was mainly because they often attacked human cities or fortresses without considering the consequences.
The reason why the human race suffered fewer casualties, in addition to the existence of the city walls, was mainly because the human race's mechanisms and war poems had made great progress in recent years and could cope with various situations.
In particular, Fang Yun's military strategy of "waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out" came into play in this battle, allowing the human race to completely unafraid of the barbarians' war of attrition and rotation, and to always ensure that they had enough physical strength to fight in turns.
However, another important factor is the natural war poem of that year, the handed down poem "Song of the Sword", which turned a large number of weapons in the Shengyuan Continent into "demon-slaying weapons". Originally, ordinary weapons could not hurt the barbarian generals, and could only hurt their weak points such as the eyes, but the demon-slaying weapons could cause certain damage to the barbarian generals, and even cause minor injuries to the barbarian commanders.
However, as time goes by, the effect of the monster-killing weapons becomes weaker and weaker. The human race has also noticed this and is trying to find a way to remedy the situation.
Once the monster-killing weapons become useless against the barbarian generals, the casualties of the human race will increase exponentially.
Fang Yun came to the gratifying conclusion that there was not much danger in Neijing Kingdom in the near future. After all, the aquatic creatures of the East China Sea Dragon Clan were fighting seriously.
The aquatic creatures in the East China Sea are not omnipotent. They can only fight on land when it rains. If they fight on a hot day with the sun shining, their strength on land will be less than one tenth of their original strength. Therefore, every time the aquatic creatures go to war, there must be a king of the aquatic creatures to make the clouds and rain.
Controlling clouds and rain over a large area is a piece of cake for a real dragon, and it is also very simple for a great dragon king. However, for an ordinary dragon king, it would put a great burden on the body if used continuously.
Therefore, the water tribe often went to battle every other day, and on the day in between, only some tribes that did not require much water, such as the turtle tribe and the water snake tribe, were dispatched.
Finally, Fang Yun carefully checked the news about Liangjie Mountain.
The battle at Liangjie Mountain was even more brutal. A battle often lasted for months, and there was no end for twelve hours every day.
The Confucian literary world has already sent out five million troops one after another, but now there are only one million left!
Fang Yun discovered that the scholars in Shengyuan Continent and Liangjie Mountain looked down on the people in Confucius' literary world, because the strength of the people in the literary world was obviously weaker, and the part of Liangjie Mountain defended by the people in the literary world was often attacked by monsters and barbarians.
Because the Battle of Bi-Chan took a long time, many soldiers became impatient and often took out their anger on the people in the literary world, mocking and ridiculing them at every turn, making the people in the literary world the punching bags.
Fang Yun sighed, feeling quite helpless. The battle at Liangjie Mountain was too brutal, and it was the first time for the people from the literary world to participate in a battle of this scale, so it was normal for them to lack experience. Not to mention the people from the literary world, even the soldiers from various countries in Shengyuan Continent would need a period of adaptation when they went to Liangjie Mountain.
However, people who have lived in Liangjie Mountain all year round are different. Defending Liangjie Mountain seems to be integrated into their lives. Whenever a section of the city is in danger, they are always the first to rush to rescue it.
“I don’t know if I can lead the Pearl River Army and step onto the Liangjie Mountain… No! I must lead the Pearl River Army, step onto the Liangjie Mountain, win the Battle of Bi Can, and pass the Ninth Mountain!”
Fang Yun showed a determined look, realizing that he would have to take charge of the Pearl River Army as soon as possible and participate in the Bi Can Battle in Liangjie Mountain as soon as possible!
Zhang Qingfeng on the side said: "The debates on the discussion list have become repetitive, which is very boring."
"Yeah, it's the same words over and over again, so you might as well not read them!"
"Let this party end here."
