Chapter 19 Xia uses martial arts to maintain order!
Order is the foundation of all things beautiful.
Against a backdrop filled with the smoke of war, only this single sentence stood out.
An Qisheng murmured, gaining a deep understanding of the forum's tone.
"The Confucian uses literature to establish laws, the knight-errant uses martial arts to maintain prohibitions!"
The scene shifted, and against the azure backdrop of the forum, a deep and solemn voice emanated from the speakers:
"When I was young, I studied history and saw too many rises and falls on this land over thousands of years. In chaotic times, people were worse than dogs, resorting to cannibalism. In prosperous times, martial artists wielded their strength to commit violence, disregarding the law, thinking themselves free and unrestrained heroes, but in reality, they were merely brutes unable to control their desires. We martial artists should adhere to our hearts. In chaotic times, we should protect the people with martial arts, eliminate violence, and bring peace. In prosperous times, we should not act recklessly without cause, maintain legal order and peace, and sweep away the vermin who wield martial arts and act tyrannically!"
This voice contained intense emotion and was extremely persuasive. Listening to it, one could almost feel the cruelty of the ancient chaotic world and the despair and unwillingness of the people within it.
"This voice..."
An Qisheng's heart jolted. The voice coming from the speakers was somewhat distorted, but he still recognized the owner of the voice.
He had heard this voice when he comprehended Wang Honglin.
Grandmaster Gu Changfeng, the greatest martial artist of his generation.
"Unfortunately, the voice is somewhat distorted, most of it is synthesized by later generations, and at most it has five parts of Mr. Gu's persuasiveness."
An Qisheng sighed slightly.
Throughout the dynasties, most of the people who left their names in history were those with outstanding personal charisma and amazing persuasiveness.
Gu Changfeng was arguably the greatest master of fist techniques in the last three hundred years, and his personal charisma was naturally beyond doubt.
One need only look at how, three hundred years ago, he relied on his own strength to organize the deeply rooted divisions of the Great Xuan martial arts world to see this.
"I wonder if, when my ability improves further, I can see Mr. Gu and Grandmaster Wang fight."
An Qisheng thought to himself as he registered and entered the forum.
This forum was a closed website, and without an invitation, it was impossible to enter.
After entering the forum, he browsed through it.
He found that the forum only had four sections: Task Assignment, Task Submission, Reward Exchange, and Martial Artist Communication, which was extremely simple.
"It's straightforward."
An Qisheng clicked on Task Assignment, and tasks began to scroll down.
Looking closely, the faces on them mostly matched the thugs on the wanted lists.
He saw that the task of "Capturing the Huajin Thug Zhao Huangtian" was already marked as completed, and the reward was one thousand points, ten bottles of Tongluo Huogu Jiu (Meridian Activating Bone Revitalizing Wine), one jin of Gu family's secret oil ointment, and thirty bottles of Longmen Neizhuang Jiu (Inner Strengthening Wine).
"The rewards are so generous?"
An Qisheng clicked on it and clicked his tongue in amazement.
One thousand points were ten million Great Xuan coins, and adding the later medicines, the price was probably as high as thirty million.
The money he had earned over the years with his two lifetimes of intuition was only this much.
But thinking about the terror of a Huajin grandmaster, it seemed understandable.
Even for Huajin grandmasters, they were unwilling to engage in life-and-death battles with their peers.
After all, winning meant going to the hospital, and losing meant going to the morgue.
It was only natural that the rewards were generous.
"Although there are many tasks, most of them can only be listed, and there are not many that can actually be done."
An Qisheng shook his head as he scanned the tasks one by one.
Most of the tasks listed on the Law Enforcement Martial Artist Forum were Great Xuan official wanted criminals, from Mingjin to Gangjin, and even Mu Longcheng was listed on it.
However, most of the task targets were no longer in Great Xuan.
For example, Mu Longcheng, who could capture and kill this unparalleled master who had achieved the state of Seeing the Divine in the center of the Empire of the Setting Sun, the lair of the Beggar Sect?
The others were similar. Xuanxing was so big that if they really escaped overseas and disappeared, it would not be easy to find them.
After roughly looking at the tasks and finding that there were no suitable tasks for him to take, An Qisheng clicked into the Reward Exchange section.
In the Reward Exchange section, things such as boxing techniques, insights, Neizhuang Jiu, Ditie Yaogao (Trauma Plasters), and even special weapons were clearly marked with prices.
An Qisheng even saw a knife-carrying permit inside.
The Great Xuan's management of cold weapons was not as strict as that of firearms, but not everyone could carry a knife. This knife-carrying permit was very useful for some cold weapon experts.
A cold weapon expert with a knife in hand had ten times the lethality of fists and feet, and the threat level could also increase tenfold.
Like that Wang Zhixuan, a single pinch made An Qisheng unable to fight back, but if she had a spear in hand, the result would be very different.
Of course, no matter how much the increase in cold weapons, it could not compare with firearms.
According to what Li Yan said, Wang Anfeng without a gun in hand could be beaten to tears by any Mingjin martial artist, but if he had a gun in hand, even a Huajin grandmaster would have to retreat.
The fist technique masters in the army who held special guns were even more terrifying.
However, these things not only required points, but also required identity verification, which was quite troublesome.
"Points can only be exchanged for money, but money cannot be exchanged for points. If there is a suitable task, it is really necessary to take it."
An Qisheng stroked his chin. There were many rewards that were useful to him.
For example, Tongjing Huoluo Jiu and Neizhuang Jiu, if he had these, he could practice hard skills such as Iron Shirt.
Thinking, An Qisheng clicked into the Martial Artist Communication section.
The first thing that caught his eye was the red pinned post "Beggar Sect Leader Mu Longcheng Visits Xuan"!
Click in.
"That old dog Mu Longcheng dares to come to Xuan! Which master can capture and kill him, I am willing to offer all my wealth, and all the points I earn for the rest of my life will be given to you!"
"Not bad, count me in!"
"Then me +1"
"+1"
"+1"
"+1"
"You can only yell here, have the guts to take on the task! Not to mention Mu Longcheng, it's okay to take on the other two Seeing the Divine figures of the Beggar Sect!"
"Our Great Xuan's three god-level masters have not seen anyone taking on the task, are you scolding them all?"
"Scold them, so what?! If they can kill Mu Longcheng, I, Li Sanyang, will personally come to your door and cut off my head to apologize!"
"You can only compare here, have the guts to go and talk to the three grandmasters?"
.......
The post was messy, no different from the forums outside. Most people were denouncing Mu Longcheng.
However, that was it.
The task of capturing and killing Mu Longcheng had been on the Enforcer Forum for thirty years, not that no one had taken it, but the people who took it were dead.
Even in the words and phrases of these netizens, he had summed up the list of those who had taken on this task in the past thirty years.
Twenty-seven Huajin, six Danjin, three Gangjin, two who had achieved the state of Seeing the Divine.
It was said that these masters went together, but unfortunately they were all trapped in the Beggar Sect, and only Han Longhua, one of the three god-level masters of Great Xuan today, escaped back.
But he had also been in closed-door cultivation since then, and had not come down the mountain for thirty years, his life or death unknown.
It was this battle that established Mu Longcheng's position as the world's number one in the martial arts world, whether friend or foe, everyone had to admit this.
Just as he exited this post, another newly released post caught An Qisheng's attention:
"Someone took it! Someone took it! Someone took on the task of capturing and killing Mu Longcheng!"
