The information flooding into Shen Qian's mind was chaotic, but after only a brief digestion, a look of surprise appeared in Shen Qian's eyes.
The Hall of a Hundred Kings was established 198 years ago.
What does this mean?
The Thousand Stars Society, currently the most influential youth organization under the China Martial Arts Association, has only a history of ninety years.
After all, it has been less than three hundred years since the revival of spiritual energy.
The Chinese Martial Arts Association was founded 193 years ago, and the World Martial Arts Association was founded 191 years ago.
No wonder.
Shen Qian suddenly realized why the "Hall of a Hundred Kings" couldn't be found on the Martial Arts Association's official website.
When the Hall of a Hundred Kings was established, the Martial Arts Association did not even exist.
Indeed, as Wan Ning said, the Hall of a Hundred Kings was founded by the three kings of the first generation: King Jiangling, King Qin Guang, and King Taiyi.
King Jiangling is the most well-known King Wu. He is one of the pioneers who led the human race to rise again step by step and is highly respected.
There's no doubt about King Taiyi; his influence can be seen in the establishment of city-states and in every aspect of human life today.
"Those who are well-fed and warmly clothed all praise the benevolence of Taiyi."
The textbook's original words.
As for King Qin Guang, he is rather mysterious. He is only mentioned briefly in textbooks, and Shen Qian did not know much about this King Wu.
Of the original nine kings of China, only one or two seem to still be active in the outside world. Most of the martial kings have not appeared for a long time, and no one knows what they are doing.
It's unlikely that he fell from grace. The great Gao had lived for over two hundred years, and King Wu's lifespan must have been even more terrifyingly long.
Pulling my wandering thoughts back, I continued reading.
After recounting the history, the original purpose of establishing the Hall of a Hundred Kings was to guide promising young geniuses to become kings and nobles!
The term "teenagers" here refers to top-tier geniuses who are no more than twenty years old.
Kings and nobles...
I was jolted again before sinking.
The Thousand Star Society is known as the "cradle of powerful warriors from the mountains and seas," while the Hundred Kings Hall was originally aimed at kings and nobles. No wonder the name sounds so extravagant at first glance.
Who in this world dares to say that they can definitely become a king or nobleman?
While there are traces to follow in the mountains and seas, becoming a king or noble is extremely difficult.
As far as we know, both the third and fifth senior brothers are absolutely certain that there is no path to becoming a king or nobleman that can be directly copied.
As for the requirements for joining the company, Wan Ning only knew one thing: age. She didn't know who was in charge of the recruitment.
The most stringent requirement is a clause attached to the purpose.
"If a member of the Hundred Kings Hall cannot achieve the Mountain and Sea Realm through their own efforts before the age of thirty, they will be directly stripped of their membership and have their relevant memories erased."
I was jolted again before sinking.
Thirty years old!
Mountains and seas!
Old Liu seems to be over thirty, but he's still stuck before reaching the Mountain and Sea level.
Is Liu Changqing's talent weak?
Of course not.
Even if Liu Changqing is not considered outstanding among the many disciples of the Great Boss High School, that is only in relative terms. In fact, from any perspective, Liu Changqing is a first-class genius.
Can an ordinary person comprehend the original primordial energy on their own?
Moreover, this clause specifically states that one must rely on one's own strength, which means one must find one's own path and cannot directly follow the paths of predecessors... This greatly increases the difficulty!
But then I thought about it again, and only by successfully paving the way can one become a king or nobleman, which makes perfect sense.
Aside from a brief introduction, the preceding information mostly consists of obligations and constraints.
For example, information related to the Hall of Hundred Kings could not be disclosed casually before the sinking, but the reason was not mentioned.
All members of the Hundred Kings Hall basically concealed their identities from each other. There was no strict rule about this, but it seemed that everyone did it this way... This was what Wan Ning told Shen Qian.
After a brief summary, Shen Qian concluded that the golden sphere was actually a kind of communicator, and the virtual space of the Hundred Kings Palace was everyone's "online community," so putting on an alias was a normal practice.
As long as you can break through the Mountain and Sea Realm before the age of thirty, you can remain as a core member of the Hundred Kings Palace and gain access to more permissions and information.
In other words, Shen Qian is still a "temporary worker" at the moment.
Another way to become a full member is through a special permit granted by the "Star Council".
"What is the Star Council?" Shen Qian opened his eyes, asking without understanding.
Wan Ning smiled and pointed to the sky above the main hall, "It's right there."
Looking up, Shen Qian was surprised to find that the main hall had a ceiling made of starry sky, with huge stars floating in the air. The largest star even gave people the illusion that they could touch it, and the texture and unevenness of its surface were clearly visible.
"Jupiter!" Shen Qian quickly recognized the star that looked incredibly real. The other floating stars also seemed to be planets in the solar system.
Against the backdrop of these enormous stars, a silver round table floats in the void at the very center.
Around the round table, thirteen tall thrones, each emitting a faint glow, floated in the air.
"The thirteen thrones you see represent all the kings and powerful figures who have emerged since the establishment of the Hundred Kings Palace. Together they form the Star Council, which decides on the daily affairs of the Hundred Kings Palace."
"When you break through to the King level during your membership, your throne will float up and you will automatically become a member of the Star Council."
Wan Ning explained with a smile.
"Do these thirteen people include the three original kings?" Shen Qian asked curiously.
Wan Ning shook his head. "The three kings' seats are not here, and in fact, I've never seen them before."
He nodded, vaguely sensing that there might be some hidden secrets behind it, but for the time being, they had little to do with him.
