Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1314 - 11: On the Earth King’s Four Seasons Theory and the Heavenly Time Universe Theory, Qi Fortune Surges! (Part 2)

As the location of the debating arena was determined, the agenda also accelerated.

Jiang Hua couldn't make decisions on all issues; ultimately, at the Beginning of Summer, several crucial matters were still presented to Minister of Sinong Zhao Xing.

"Jiang Hua from the Dao Ceremony Bureau pays respect to the Grand Minister of Agriculture."

"Greetings Mr. Jiang, please have a seat."

Zhao Xing smiled and invited Jiang Hua to sit, then poured him tea.

He had heard that Jiang Hua's hosting duties this month were quite challenging, but eventually, Jiang Hua managed well.

"Thank you, Minister of Sinong." Jiang Hua first handed over a document before taking his seat and then spread out paper and pen on the table.

"Minister of Sinong, there are still several key issues at the debating conference that require your determination."

"Please continue, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Hua: "Since it is a debating conference, someone should debate with the Minister of Sinong. Choosing the first candidate to debate with you has become a focal point of contention."

"I dare not arbitrarily decide and can only ask the Minister of Sinong to make the call."

Zhao Xing picked up the meeting notes and glanced at them, then laughed.

Since it's a debating conference, there surely should be someone to debate with.

Of course, according to the Three Sects' representatives, no one is qualified to debate with Zhao Xing.

However, being selected to pose questions is considered supreme honor.

The issue is who should be the first on stage.

Some suggest Liu Tianning should be the first, as he was the previous Minister of Sinong and Zhao Xing's teacher, so he should be given precedence.

Others suggest Ling Tianchen for the first spot, as Ling Tianchen was also Zhao Xing's teacher.

Some propose Wang Tianzhi or Qiu Yuanshan, but the votes for them are less.

A clever group believes they should summon the three Yin Gods, Li Boqian, Xuan Yuan Qingtian, and Fu Tianyang from below ground to take the stage first.

Zhao Xing didn't think for long before making a decision.

"Put Mi Fei first."

Jiang Hua was slightly perplexed: "Minister of Sinong, isn't Mi Fei..."

Zhao Xing chuckled: "You mean he's perhaps of lower status and weaker in strength?"

Jiang Hua nodded, as that was indeed his thought.

Most people thought the same way, even though Zhao Xing previously mentioned Mi Fei had made significant contributions to this research, no one took it seriously since Zhao Xing was involved, and naturally, the credit went to the Minister of Sinong!

Mi Fei? He just happened to be there! How could he be qualified to be first?

Zhao Xing waved it off: "Actually, it's not like that; Mi Fei developed the first version of the spell, I improved the second version, and he further developed the third version on my foundation."

"Later, we jointly developed the advanced version."

"Of course, the advanced version will not be disclosed this time, but Mi Fei's contributions are unquestionable."

"You may pass on my exact words. Anyone with questions may come and see me."

Zhao Xing certainly wouldn't misappropriate Mi Fei's acclaim; it's his deserved recognition.

"Yes," Jiang Hua nodded and noted this down. Then he set the pen down and respectfully said: "The second issue, please decide, Minister of Sinong."

"Before the debate, should the sacrifice be to the Earth God, the Ji God, or the Heavenly God? If all three gods are to be honored, which one should be first?"

This issue is another result of sect rivalry.

Zhao Xing pondered: "The Dao Ceremony Bureau can set up three altars, side by side, without prioritizing their height; the music and ceremony shall be divided among the east, south, and north."

After a pause, Zhao Xing continued: "To avoid external speculation, you can record my subsequent words."

"In the Sinong Dao, heaven, earth, and humanity have emphasis but are of equal importance."

"The creation of three internal sects was due to a lack of energy and resources."

"Things are different now; we have Yun Meng Academy; we have more time and energy to learn, situated in this era of Primordial Qi Tide, we have the conditions to study all three sects."

"All three sects should integrate the Sinong Dao, as they share a common origin and should not expend energy on sect disputes."

Jiang Hua felt somewhat shaken; he knew the three sects had a long-standing conflict, not easily saying no contention means no contention.

Initially, he assumed Zhao Xing refrained from declaring sect positions over details to better lead the team, but it now appears he intends to unify the three sects through the debating conference!

Zhao Xing glanced at Jiang Hua, and for some reason, a surge of excitement rose in Jiang Hua's heart. It felt as though he was witnessing something extraordinary.

"Minister of Sinong, the number of participants signing up for this debating conference has reached an unprecedented level. Can the Minister of Sinong conduct lectures simultaneously at Yun Meng Academy and the Dao Yuan Continent's debating arena?"

"Yes."

"Fate Officer and Grand Commandant asked me whether foreign participants should be allowed to listen to the Minister of Sinong's lectures, and if so, should there be a selection process."

"No need to block them; anyone who enters Great Zhou through proper channels can listen. This conference will only release the initial version."

"To learn subsequent versions, the second, third, or even advanced version, there are only three conditions: become a vassal of Great Zhou, obtain an official post in Great Zhou, or become a high-ranking official."

The initial version is free to learn; that's certain. The initial Xuanhuang Analysis Technique was originally obtained by Zhao Xing from Mi Fei.

The dissemination cannot be stopped, even if it spreads externally.

But even if it spreads, it doesn't matter; they are several versions behind Great Zhou. In terms of spiritual energy efficiency, the third version of the Xuanhuang Analysis Technique isn't on the same level at all.

Mi Fei's creation of the Xuanhuang Analysis Technique was merely an intermediate magic.

Zhao Xing's second version reached an advanced level, and the third version reached the top level.

The advanced version reverses primordial energy into spiritual energy, which can be considered the ultimate technique, known only to a limited number of high officials.

To attract Sinong talents to join Great Zhou and enhance Great Zhou's Qi Fortune, the initial version must be offered freely.
