Yu Qian'an's suggestion shocked not only Guo Jing, but everyone else, including Yang Jiarui, whose eyes widened. This approach was unheard of.
Yang Jiarui: "Good fellow, the last time I heard of such a ruthless method was to publish the Sword Manual of Exorcism throughout the world. Yours is even more ruthless. You want to publish all martial arts throughout the world. This is simply rebellious against Tiangang. How shameless!"
Yu Qian'an: "Why are you so feudal? Why should we be bound by those traditional rules?"
Yang Jiarui: "But have you ever thought that your behavior is actually equivalent to a class revolution, which is more difficult than overthrowing an emperor.
We can regard these people who practice martial arts as a privileged class above the common people, and those who have better martial arts skills are the aristocrats among the privileged class. Those who have supernatural powers like the Five Great Masters are even the emperors of the world, and have a ruling position over it.
The reason why they kept the secrets in their hands secret was basically to protect their class interests, and monopolizing the acquisition of knowledge was the way for them and their descendants to obtain this privilege for a long time.
If you make all the secrets known to the world, it would be equivalent to destroying their jobs and status. You will definitely be labeled as a rebel, or even branded as a big devil, and the world's chaos starts with you.
Because making martial arts secrets a practice for the entire nation is not only a reshaping of the rules of the martial arts world, but also a reshaping of the rules of the court and the world.
When you're just an ordinary person, you're willing to rent a few acres of land as a tenant. But if you're a top-notch expert, would you still be willing to be a tenant to a landlord who's only a third-rate expert? Would you still be willing to be exploited by a second-rate yamen runner? Would you still let a second-rate official decide your life and death?
By then, there will inevitably be chaos in the world, and stability will not come until new rules are established and those with talent and resources rise up to form a new privileged class with military power.
You must be the one to take the blame for this mess!"
Yu Qian'an: "Why would I be afraid of this? Just for fun! I'm interested in seeing what the new world will be like."
Yang Jiarui: "It's difficult, so what in the new world? Ordinary people still have no chance to make a name for themselves. Although martial arts are published all over the world, resources, blood, medicinal materials, combat experience, etc. can also determine the strength of martial arts. The new privileged class will definitely find a way to monopolize these.
Let’s not talk about all that. Just the literacy test alone can eliminate so many people. Many martial arts secrets are obscure and difficult to understand. Not to mention those who have just learned to read, even those without a Taoist or medical background cannot understand them. How many people have been eliminated?
In other words, just like the imperial examination system, it leaves a path for the truly talented to rise up, while the rest of the people, who are not as strong as others and lack resources, are still enslaved, but they are enslaved by a different group of people."
Yu Qian'an thought about it carefully, and the final outcome would really be as Yang Jiarui said. He originally thought that he had found a way to solve the external threat once and for all, but in the end he found that it was just a rebalancing of power and the re-formation of classes.
Yu Qian'an asked, "What suggestions do you have?"
Yang Jiarui: "My advice is, don't give random advice to others. The fate of people in this era is the result of a combination of the people, objects, resources, climate, personality, hobbies, concepts, etc. of this era. Their fate carries the inevitability of their lives.
Unless you give them a radical change, nothing will change."
Yu Qian'an: "Then why not form a special forces team composed of martial arts masters, and use special combat decapitation tactics on the enemy leaders, and keep killing them until they dare not choose a leader or resist!"
Yang Jiarui: "You know what, that's exactly what the Squids did. They assassinated countless high-ranking enemies, and the Squids had nuclear weapons that crushed others for generations, just like the martial arts masters you mentioned. But they couldn't change the general trend of that era. The enemy continued to appear and attack..."
Yu Qian'an: "Okay, okay, I don't have any suggestions."
Guo Jing only understood half of what he was hearing. He was slow to react to these things, and Yang Jiarui kept coming up with new words when he spoke, which made it even more difficult for him to understand.
After they finished speaking, Guo Jing continued, "I've thought about distributing martial arts secrets widely, for example, teaching the army some boxing and kicking techniques. However, people vary in talent, martial arts aptitude, and meridian conditions, so it's difficult to do..."
Hong Qigong pulled Guo Jing aside and said, "We've already discussed this topic. Now let's discuss forming a special combat team composed of martial arts masters to kill the enemy leader!"
Guo Jing: "Ah? Oh. We've thought about this, and I've also sent out invitations to heroes, inviting masters from all over the world to join in, but it's still difficult. Our masters usually have practiced martial arts for more than 30 years, and any casualty would be a loss to the martial arts world.
But the enemies are just ordinary people, and if you kill one, another will pop up, so this method won’t last long.”
Yu Qian’an: “…”
I originally thought I was a smart person, but who knew I was just a very smart person. The methods you can think of can also be thought of by others, and they have all been tried and failed.
Of course, if Yu Qiyan took action, it would be different. The martial arts masters used elixirs, and Yu Qiyan personally guided the cultivation of true Qi. Although it could not be said that they were mass-produced all over the streets, there was no pressure at all to train thousands of martial arts masters.
But if Yu Qian'an took action, wouldn't that be cheating? Instead of going through so much trouble and wasting so many resources, it would be better to just use a sword technique to take the head of the Mongolian emperor.
Just when Yu Qian'an was about to say something, Huang Rong called for dinner. Yu Qian'an remained silent during the meal. Huang Rong and Hong Qigong talked about the past and asked about their recent situation from time to time.
When they learned that Ouyang Feng had broken through the innate realm, everyone looked at Ouyang Feng in surprise, who had been silent the whole time.
Ouyang Feng said calmly, "I have already achieved a breakthrough. I feel completely different now than I was before. I don't want to dwell on the past grudges anymore. Everything is in the past."
Huang Rong breathed a sigh of relief. "I heard you told Master Yideng that a new Huashan Sword Contest would be held on Mount Huashan on August 15th four years from now?"
Ouyang Feng: "Yes, the Huashan Sword Contest, one is to show the martial arts world my strength, and the other is to put an end to the Five Supremes' dispute over the years."
Huang Rong looked at Yang Jiarui again, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. Master Yideng had said that when the little girl heard that she was not going, she threatened to kill all the monks in Tianlong Temple, and her murderous intent was very strong.
Yang Jiarui looked at Huang Rong and said, "Why are you looking at me? The Huashan Sword Contest must be held, and all five masters must be present. Anyone who doesn't go is showing disrespect to me. If you don't show respect to me, then hmph!"
