Konoha, I have the Herrscher of the End core in my body.

"Today we are only discussing philosophy with swords, so please do not offend the gentleman's etiquette." In the hall of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, Fusu sat in the main seat and set the tone for the following competition. After all, this time they came to subdue Confucianism, not to destroy it. Unlike the Mohist school that openly opposed Qin, Confucianism did not oppose Qin after all, so the Qin could only exert pressure on it and could not take action against it.

For individuals, it doesn't matter how they act, but if it is a country, there must be rules. After all, ruling a country is not something that one person can do, so even Ying Zheng must abide by certain rules. Even the ninja world will abide by this. Of course, if you want to be a tyrant and want to do whatever you want, that is another matter.

"The first game begins." Li Si said immediately. After he finished speaking, Zhang Liang on the left side of the hall immediately stood up. At this time, on the left and right sides of the hall of Xiaoshengxianzhuang were Naruto and his group representing the empire, and Fu Nian and his group representing Confucianism. As for Xunzi, he only showed up briefly and left because of physical discomfort. Even Naruto could do nothing about this old gentleman.

After all, Naruto is not the kind of person who acts recklessly and kills people at will. Of course, this also has a lot to do with the difference between current Confucianism and later Confucianism. If he meets a Confucian who is too cold, Naruto will definitely make the other person regret saying these three words.

"Confucian Zhang Liang, please give me your guidance." Zhang Liang took the sword handed over by the Confucian disciple, walked to the middle of the hall, and saluted to Prince Fusu.

"Lingxu Sword, I'm afraid this sword is the most valuable sword on the sword list." Looking at the sword in Zhang Liang's hand, Naruto nodded with a smile. Before coming here, the information of the Three Heroes of Qi and Lu had been placed in front of him, which naturally included the famous swords in their hands.

Lingxu Sword is ranked tenth on the sword list. Feng Huzi, a famous sword appraiser at that time, had made special comments on it. The sword body is slender and beautiful, and the whole body is crystal clear and dazzling, which cannot be looked at directly. The green leather scabbard is natural and has eighteen red hearts of the North Sea embedded in it. Although it is a sharp weapon, it does not have any blood on it. It only has a fairy-like style and is a famous weapon.

For people of this era, a famous sword is a symbol of status, especially for Confucians who care most about status. They will naturally seek to carry a famous sword. In fact, the same is true for famous musical instruments of this era. Confucian disciples of this era are basically proficient in musical instruments, chess, calligraphy and painting, which is completely different from those people in later generations who only know how to study hard. Being a complete talent in both civil and military affairs is a standard feature for some people in this era.

Of course, there are also some people who don't know martial arts, or their martial arts skills are not very high, such as Li Si. But strictly speaking, it's not Li Si's fault. It's a matter of status. There is a saying that goes "The poor are good at literature and the rich are good at martial arts." Although this saying is not absolute, it is also very reasonable. If you want to practice martial arts, you must have adequate nutrition. Of course, poor people can't afford this.

Of course, Li Si was not a poor man. After all, he was able to become a disciple at Xiaoshengxianzhuang, and Li Si's family was considered wealthy. However, inheritance was very important in this era. Look at the various schools of thought, each one of them was a famous figure in the Six Kingdoms. In this era, it was difficult for poor people to learn to read, let alone learn any big principles.

Of course, if it is ordinary martial arts, it is very easy to learn. Ordinary disciples of the various schools of thought and soldiers in the army can learn it, but it is just ordinary. The real top-notch skills are not accessible to ordinary people. For example, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang are both descendants of aristocrats. None of the so-called romantic figures in Qin Shi Ming Yue are of low birth.

"Speaking of this Feng Huzi sword ranking, what exactly is the basis for it? It feels like it is completely based on his ideas, and there is no rules at all. After I go back, maybe I can make a sword ranking to replace him."

Looking at the Lingxu Sword in Zhang Liang's hand, Naruto suddenly sighed softly. Coming to this era, he was naturally very curious about the Sword List, so he got a list, and then he found that there was a problem with this Sword List. You said it was ranked by strength, but the owners of some of the top ten famous swords are not necessarily better than those ranked lower in martial arts.

You said it is not ranked by strength, but now that the Juque Sword is in Shengqi's hands, its ranking is constantly rising, from the previous 200th place to the eleventh place on the sword list.

Naruto's sudden sigh naturally attracted the attention of the people present. Fusu glanced at Naruto and found that he didn't want to say anything, so he didn't speak. Zhang Liang looked at Naruto curiously and said, "Confucian Zhang Liang, please give me some advice."

"Zifang has a presumptuous request, I hope you will agree to it." Zhang Liang continued before the candidate from the Qin side appeared.

"Just say it." Fusu nodded.

"People say that when you encounter an ancient sword, you meet a true gentleman. Zifang wants to compete with these brothers who wield the Eight Swords of the King of Yue." Zhang Liang said as he looked at the group of people standing at the back of the Qin side, the Six Sword Slaves. Although these six were quite powerful, their status was not high, so they did not have any seats.

After Zhang Liang finished speaking, Fusu immediately looked at Zhao Gao, who nodded slightly. Then the leader of the Six Sword Slaves, Zhen Gang, glanced at Luanshen, and Luanshen immediately walked out. The strength of the Six Sword Slaves also varies, and can be roughly divided into two levels. Zhen Gang, Luanshen and Duanshui are stronger, while Wuliang, Zhuanhun and Miepo are weaker, but this is also related to their division of labor.

The Six Sword Slaves have division of labor. Some are responsible for the frontal attack, some are responsible for attracting people's attention, some are responsible for restraint and so on. It can be said that the Six Sword Slaves are a very complete team, which is the same as the team division in the ninja world. In other words, there are no medical ninjas in this world, otherwise a nurse would definitely be added to the Six Sword Slaves.

"You are Brother Luanshen." Seeing Luanshen coming out, Zhang Liang immediately saluted with his fists clasped.

"Let's do it." Luanshen didn't show any courtesy and directly drew out the Luanshen Sword behind him.

"The man is ugly, and the sword he uses is ugly too." Gongsun Linglong said softly, waving the fan in her hand. The sword used by the chaotic god is different from a normal sword. Its blade is curved. Considering the situation in that era, this kind of sword does not conform to the mainstream aesthetic.

"Master, I wonder how good Gongsun Linglong's martial arts are?" Gongsun Linglong's words made Naruto curious about her martial arts. It was impossible to say that she didn't know martial arts. After all, she was the head of the Master. Ordinary disciples of the Master might not know martial arts, or their martial arts skills might not be high, but the head must at least have considerable martial arts skills. It's just that Masters are all about debate, and under normal circumstances, they will not take action.

"Since the purpose of this competition is to discuss the Dao with swords, I naturally have to ask for your advice. The sword I am wearing is called Lingxu." Zhang Liang immediately introduced his Lingxu sword.

"Mr. Zhang San's sword is indeed powerful. It suits him very well." Gongsun Linglong continued, and this time Naruto agreed with him. Zhang Liang's gentleness and elegance really match the luxury of Lingxu Sword. If someone else used this sword, it would probably give people the feeling of a nouveau riche.

"Ranked tenth, that's amazing, let's get started." Luanshen looked impatient with the game and wanted to take action directly.

"Brother Luanshen, since we are discussing swordplay, could you please introduce your sword?" However, Zhang Liang continued to speak, blocking Luanshen's intention to attack. If it were somewhere else, Luanshen would definitely attack regardless of the consequences, but now it was in front of Prince Fusu, and he could not be rude.
