Chapter 487 Swordsmanship Rating Under the Bright Sunshine

After leaving the hotel, Tilan sat in the hover car, leaning against the window and thinking about the woman just now.

People are complex and multifaceted. As a child from a remote and barren star field, Madsang was able to come to the central star field and work and live there. This was due to the support of her elders and her own diligence.

Judging from her career trajectory alone, she can probably be regarded as a role model among civilians.

But she also has the limitations of ordinary people. Even if she is diligent, she also has a fluke mentality. When the firm contacted her, she immediately agreed. The greedy side that was usually concealed was instantly exposed. Even if she was caught, she only regretted that she had bad luck this time and was afraid of being punished and retaliated.

In addition, her description of the situation in the Ten Vertical Star Fields also reflects many problems.

The innate conditions of each star field in the Federation are very different. Residents who grew up in different environments and histories have very different values ​​for the Federation and the entire person.

Many of the elves in the Federation today come from the idyllic planet where Isanissa lived. Most of the elves have not experienced the brutal struggles of the Fifth Era. In the early days of the Federation, they followed Isanissa's will and opened up many new planets for habitation, which also accumulated great reputation and capital for the elves in the Federation, making them a group with a relatively high status in the Federation for hundreds of years.

On the human side, the situation is quite complicated. There are also the survivors of the Fourth Era who also came from the planet where Isanissa lived, the original human races that were reborn after liberating the areas controlled by the dark suns, and many improved humans who tried to gain advantages through gene editing in the confrontation with the dark suns. There are also the remnant fleets of human civilization when the order collapsed, and the wandering merchants who shuttled through the galaxy, etc.

Looking back at the early history of the Federation, people are often surprised by the difficult and complicated situation at that time. However, Isanissa unified these scattered forces in the galaxy with absolute leadership, blended them together, and established a unified consensus and a new galaxy country. If the whole process is not clearly recorded in history, it would be incredible for people to recall it now.

After the establishment of the Federation, through Isanissa's guidance and education, real recognition and sense of belonging were gradually built in a hundred years, which prevented the Federation from falling apart in a short time after Isanissa's death.

In the following generations of singers, no one could have the great prestige and strength of Isanissa. All they could do was to stabilize the framework of the Federation. As for reform, delaying the polarization of the rich and the poor, and balancing the economic development of various star regions, this kind of difficult and thankless task could only be delayed again and again until it broke out four hundred years ago and was solved by Amy Larin.

Aimulalin solved some of the problems of the Federation. Her reforms greatly weakened the influence of the elf families on the Federal Parliament and the military power of giant companies, making it difficult for them to openly override the Federal Parliament. She also dismembered some giant companies and cleared the losers of the war, freeing up a lot of development space for the new Federation, allowing the people after the war to live a prosperous life for nearly a hundred years.

Although there are still many people on the Internet who are dissatisfied with the Federation, objectively speaking, the Federation today is indeed much better than four hundred years ago. At least the existence of the Tribunal has made many politicians, giant companies, and separatists have swords hanging over their heads, and their behavior has been restrained.

After sorting out these, although Tilan felt that the prospects were bleak, she felt much more at ease compared to the hesitation last night.

At least it's not hopeless, right?

The careers of the two color-level singing predecessors, even if they were not so perfect, they really changed this country and passed it down.

As time goes by, generations are replaced, and new problems will be encountered in every era.

In order to keep the underground people hope and spiritual sustenance, religions such as the Red God developed. Although it was a bit ignorant and extreme, it was beneficial to the survival of the tribe at that time, and various doctrines were highly bound to the living environment at that time.

It's just that the wheel of time is moving forward, and the things of the past can no longer guide the people of today, and their existence has become a kind of shackle.

The ideas of the past era can no longer adapt to this vast and complex galaxy era. The form of the country also needs a new order to build and achieve a harmonious and equal world, a world without oppression and full of fairness.

It seemed that in the heavy fog, she vaguely saw the outline of the future order.

Maybe she didn't know how to realize this ideal, but at least she knew what kind of world it would be.

The hovercraft passed through many high-rise buildings. When Tilan opened the window, the fresh and fierce wind from the sky rushed in, blowing her originally straightened long hair into a mess. The blue and white hairbands swayed in the wind, and the bright sunshine made the girl slightly hold up her hands to block it.

Although the city is a bit depressing at night, it is also beautiful during the day.

——————

Back at school, Tilan changed out of her luxurious phoenix silk dress, took a shower, and then changed into a casual and comfortable light-colored dress, and took a few white kites to play by the small river in the school.

After the birds grew up, they could no longer float on the water as easily as when they were young, because the water here was too shallow. In response, Tilan watched the birds flapping in the river and laughed, and then picked up a few pebbles she liked in the river and took them back.

The reason why I didn't play like this before was probably because I had something on my mind, and I felt that playing was a waste of time. I had an anxiety that I had to do the right thing, but I was not so sure about what to do, so I kept wasting time and wavering.

When the goal in my heart was determined, everything became clear, and I could boldly relax my mood, because she already knew where she should go and what she should do. The current relaxation was to improve her mood and physical condition and prepare for the future.

The next day, Tilan and the other four singers took classes together again. At lunch, Tilan talked about the situation at the hotel.

"I hope Yanqing won't blame her too much. She just provided information, and Flaming was the mastermind who initiated the incident."

After listening to Tilan's description, Shui Yanqing shook her head.

"I don't blame her, especially after hearing about the star field she came from." She was discovered by Dr. Newman on an abandoned planet not far from the Ten Vertical Star Field.

"Since Tilan said so, I will also ask everyone not to disturb her." Shui Yanqing said that she would pass on the instructions and restrain the followers behind her.

"Let's just leave it at that. I don't want to ask any more questions." For Shui Yanqing, continuing to retaliate would only involve innocent people, and would not achieve much. Instead, it would be torture to keep herself stuck in this matter.

"My unstable mood in the past few days made everyone laugh."

After this incident, Shui Yanqing was a little more frank in front of a few people. She was probably relaxed, and occasionally she would laugh at herself for not doing well.

"I'm not used to her being like this." After school, Orles continued to go back with Tilan, and the two talked on the way.

"It's a happy time, isn't it good?" Tilan smiled.

"It's not bad, it just feels a little boring." Orles thought about it.

"Shui Yanqing, who is narrow-minded and poisonous, is indeed more interesting."

"Orles also said that she is narrow-minded." Hearing this, Tilan couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, I won't say that about her in the future."

"In the next week, you can go to complete the school's tasks. Do you want to join me, Tilan?" Orles invited again.

"No." Tilan answered decisively, which surprised Orlesi.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid that I will hold you back?" Orlesi couldn't understand why Tilan refused so straightforwardly.

"No, I want to try to work alone, so that I can relax and have more freedom." Tilan didn't accommodate Orlesi this time and spoke her mind frankly.

Seeing Tilan so confident and cheerful, Orlesi didn't quite understand where she would be more relaxed, but she still believed that Tilan didn't hate her.

After a good sleep, she finished a day's study. The next day was the weekend, and Tilan had time to choose the tasks to be completed alone.

The first task was to rate her swordsmanship and the various abilities she had. These tasks were issued to reward students who made progress in various fields.

After applying for the task, Tilan received a notice in the afternoon, asking her to go to the center of the Academy City, District 5, where there was a master who was good at swordsmanship, and he would assess Tilan's strength.

"District 5."

Tilan thought about it. The school there is in the middle of the city. The streets and communities are not like those in District 1 where all kinds of big brands gather. The cost of living is much lower and there is a special atmosphere of fireworks. Some classmates in the class said that they occasionally go there to eat barbecue and sit in the open-air restaurant by the square. It is particularly comfortable and relaxed.

Tilan tied her hair into a refreshing single ponytail, changed into a white slim T-shirt, and a pleated short skirt that is easy to move. Looking in the mirror, she picked out a short jacket and put it on, and then matched it with a baseball cap and brown sunglasses. The overall style is very youthful and lively. People can't imagine that this is her, because her temperament and dressing style are too different from the past.

Trying a new style certainly makes the girl feel light-hearted, but this kind of short skirt is also her first time to wear it. There is a sense of chill and unfamiliarity. After thinking about it, it is better to add a black safety pants lining that is easy to exercise, so that she can feel more at ease.

Bringing a white kite, Tilan held it in her arms, and then got on the hovercraft to the central area 5.

A few minutes later, Tilan got off the car and looked around. It was very open here. The tall buildings were far apart. There was often a few hundred meters wide open space in the middle, which was only surrounded by low guardrails to prevent vehicles from running around.

Easily climbed over the guardrail, there were many students in these open spaces. Some of them were playing ball, some were holding activities, and occasionally you could see young people unfolding projection devices and playing card battles.

No wonder classmates in the class said that there was a bit of fireworks here, it seemed that there were indeed a lot of people.

Tilan turned a corner and came to an open space with a great view and scenery. There were temporary barrier generation devices around it. Several students were fighting each other with swords inside, and some people cheered from time to time.

"Bamboo Sound Sword Art - Qingfeng Cuizhan!"

A student in the field shouted loudly, and then the long sword in his hand was like a residual image, leaving green sword marks. These sword marks were scattered and scattered, like bamboo leaves in ancient paintings, appearing in an instant and disappearing quickly.

The dense sound of swords clashing rang out in the field. The other two students in the field could not resist the burst of green sword marks. Many tiny sparks were cut on their clothes, and then their faces turned pale and they left the field.

"Ah~Bai Zhou won again."

"This is the third game. It seems that his Bamboo Sound Sword Art has reached perfection."

In the venue, a young man in a white shirt stood, holding a sword in one hand. The sword was like bamboo, light and slender, with a faint white light in the sun, and his breath was particularly stable and long.

It was also quite interesting to see how he dressed. He wore a light-colored T-shirt with black beach pants inside, but a loose oriental-style robe outside. He was a bit chic, but not as restrained and old-fashioned as the ancients.

After receiving praise from his companions, the young man carried the bamboo sword on his shoulder, rubbed his head and smiled, ready to show off in front of the instructor, and then everyone went to have a barbecue to celebrate in the evening.

"I have to treat you anyway, haha." As they said this, several people laughed.

Seeing that the competition in the venue was over, Tilan touched the big white kite in her arms, let it fly, and then walked into the venue.

"Hello, is Master Gu Fangzhong here?" Although she asked, she actually guessed that the bearded man in the crowd who looked like he was in his thirties was the person she was looking for.

"Oh, someone is looking for Lao Gu."

"I haven't seen her. She might be from another district school."

"That girl has a great figure. Her legs look particularly symmetrical and healthy. If she dances ballet, she would be perfect." Someone commented like this.

Although they didn't speak loudly, Tilan still heard it keenly. In response, she had to slightly press the brim of her hat to cover up the slight shyness in her eyes.

In fact, as a public figure, she should be used to such comments, but she rarely takes the initiative to read online comments. In addition, due to her own personality, she is also a little shy.

Fortunately, even if she hears it now, Tilan will pretend not to hear it and not respond.

She walked straight to the man who was leaning against the guardrail drinking Coke. When Tilan approached, the other party also finished talking to the people around him and turned around.

"Hey, are you the girl who applied for the sword test today? I didn't expect to find me as soon as I came. I haven't even heard your name before. It seems that the super AI who assigns tasks is very optimistic about you."

He flicked the beverage can with his fingers, making a crisp sound, and the water waves in it reverberated, with a special charm.

"Is it rare to meet you when I apply for the first time?" Tilan was also curious.

"It is indeed rare, because there are only three masters in the field of swordsmanship in Academy City. The other two are highly respected and old. Nowadays, they generally don't handle such assessment tasks. I am in charge of them."

"If you have made great achievements in the field of swordsmanship, then I should at least have heard of your name."

The girl shook her head and then spoke.

"This is also my first time applying. I don't know the situation in Academy City. Since I am here, please give me some advice."

"Give me advice, this word is really retro, even I, an Oriental, rarely say it."

He touched his chin with a lot of stubble, looked Tilan up and down, and then drank the can of Coke in one gulp.

"Huh, this wind is really refreshing, and the bubbles and sweetness of Coke are so refreshing. I am in a good mood today, so let me meet you." He threw his already open coat to his companion on the side, and then threw the can of beverage up.

The red beverage can separated in the air and turned into a spiral metal strip. When it fell again, it became straight in the man's hand.

The long sword made of metal sheets had no guard and no so-called blade. It was like an iron bar. He held it with a majestic aura that was hard to shake.

In response, Tilan also focused her eyes. She spread out one hand and held it in the air. A silver sword blade soon appeared and fell into her hand.

Seeing this, the other people around quickly dispersed to make room for the two.

One side was majestic and motionless, and the thin iron blade was as heavy as a mountain. On the other side, the black-haired girl, with her high ponytail swaying in the wind, exuded a vague and elusive aura, like catkins, which could disappear at any time.

The battle was about to break out.
