In the next few days, the speeches of various schools became more and more intense.

According to the rules, the people participating in the debate will decide the order of speeches by drawing lots. If it ends once, then reincarnate again in the determined order.

In this way, schools such as Yin-Yang School, novelists, famous artists, and miscellaneous schools are very comfortable, because there are fewer people participating, and almost everyone has the opportunity to speak once or twice a day.

Unlike Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism, which are full of people, everyone only gets one chance to speak for three days.

Of course, this also forced them to regard this only opportunity as a treasure and do their best before the speech. Everyone's handwritten manuscripts alone are half a foot thick. At the end of the evening competition, those who have not yet appeared will summarize the theory they heard during the day and modify the manuscript again.

Therefore, every night, you can hear scholars chanting manuscripts everywhere in the city, and the sound of simulated speeches, which come one after another, spread all over the city.

Because Yao Ruoyu has been in seclusion for the past three days and realized the unity of Lingwu, Song Kai, Xu Xuanrong, Zou Buyi, Guo Fengjie and others inspected the campus, and recorded those talented speakers.

If these mentors are poor people or are rootless or have no source, Song Kai and others will immediately ask the secret army to investigate the person, and after confirming that the origin is not a problem and the character is not bad, they will quickly recruit the other party.

Of course, in addition to them, other neighboring forces also sent people to recruit talents. The Chu King's Mansion, Xu Jingmiao and neighboring places such as Beibei and Tongnan were all sent to them.

When all forces took action together and each had their own advantages and disadvantages, Dawen finally recruited only forty-seven scholars with good abilities, most of whom were from poor families and had no backing background, so he could only find a large force to gain access.

However, among these forty-seven people, there are three noble children from noble families who are born in gentry.

They came from Yongchuan, Tongliang and Wulong respectively, and their families were of extraordinary origins. They came here because they admired the story of Dawen's rise from the last moment. Among them, Chen Jinbo from Yongchuan took the initiative to pay homage to Xu Xuanrong, hoping to become an official in Dawen.

Among these people, the one who performed the best in the speeches these days was Xu Yanli, a female scholar in Huainan who attracted Guo Fengjie to the festival on the same day.

This woman gave a speech in public as a child of a miscellaneous family. Although both Guo Fengjie and Xu Xuanrong were suspicious of whether this woman was from a miscellaneous family, it did not prevent her wonderful words during several speeches and attracted a lot of fans.

On the evening of the third day, the official responsible for counting the final votes obtained by various schools had submitted the list to Xu Xuanrong's desk. Although there was still one night, it was estimated that the overall situation would have little impact.

Zou Buyi, Guo Fengjie, Wen Yuancai, Bai Junru and others did not come to see the rankings together in order to avoid suspicion. In the end, only Xu Xuanrong, Song Kai and Wu Xue, who shouted that he was also an important official in Wenbang, sat on the roof of the doctoral building, flipping through the rankings of various schools.

As the most prestigious Confucianism in China, it ranked first without any objection, with 3,724 votes.

However, what surprised everyone half and was half indifferent was that the Buddhists ranked second, with 2,856 votes, not various schools of war, lingering, Taoism, and Dharma.

Further down, there are Legalists, Taoists, peasants, and miscellaneous families.

The Legalists advocate governing the country by law, which coincides with the many scholars who like order. Therefore, although they are not children of the Legalists, many people still voted for the Legalists.

As for Taoism, as the first local sect in China, it naturally has a lot of fans. The reason why it lags behind Confucianism, Buddhism and Dharma is largely because the Taoist sects such as Sanqingshan and Dabe Cizhai have destroyed each other, which ultimately made the environment for speeches in all parties too harsh, and listeners often left without waiting for the listening.

Most of the Zonghengists advocated joining the vassal states such as the Southern Barbarians and Wenbang, first attacking the Great Jin Dynasty and then defeating Mongolia. This argument is naturally the favorite among the people in Sichuan and Chongqing who endured the Jin Dynasty's military disaster all year round.

What is surprising is that among the schools participating in the competition, the number of votes received by farmers, which have been almost unremarkable in the people for more than a thousand years, is extremely high, and is second only to the Zongheng family, because the farmers advocate agriculture to promote the country and have received deep support from farmers. However, the statement in the farming theory about derogating business and promoting agriculture has caused many merchants to be indignant.

Among these participating schools, the ones ranked at the bottom were not those schools that had disappeared for many years, but the Mohists, which are now second only to Confucian and Taoist schools in China.

After the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism alone, which made Confucianism become bigger and surpassed hundreds of schools of thought.

Except for Taoism who lived in seclusion in the world and escaped a disaster, the rest of the families, such as soldiers and farmers, were all over the Confucians who were overwhelmed by Confucianism.

Only the Mohist school decisively retreated, gathered its power to stay in Longxing Prefecture, and showed a momentum of only participating in business, which avoided the craze of Confucianism swept across China.

At this time, the Mohist family arrived in Yitong City late at night before the competition began.

The leader of the Mo family was Mo Zichang, but what is surprising is that the purpose of the Mo family came here this time was not to promote the Mo family's philosophy, but to promote various institutions of its own research in the lecture hall.

The official cattle that automatically plows the fields, puppets that can unload heavy objects, and mixing buckets that clean clothes, the Mohist family almost regarded this Baijia Forum as an exhibition and vigorously promoted its own products.

In ancient times, manpower was the first. The reason why there was a saying of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce was that in ancient times, agricultural farming was not achieved, and workers were dependent on agriculture and farming, so they had such a status.

However, as the Mohist family promoted their own products, the farmers and working class quickly felt the crisis, because once major forces use these agencies, wouldn’t they be unemployed?

It is precisely because of this that the Mohist family almost received resistance from the workers and peasants. In the past three days, except for some visionary scholars who voted for them, the Mohist family could be said to have no results. In the three days of the first phase, they received only thirty-eight votes.

After seeing the tickets from each company, Wu Xue couldn't help but mutter. Xu Xuanrong didn't hear what she said clearly, and said curiously: "Sister Xue, what did you say?"

"Why is there no Zongheng family?" Wu Xue pouted, and said angrily, "I saw that there was a handsome and handsome pot in the Zongheng family that day."

Song Kai's face turned dark when he heard this. Xu Xuanrong also smiled, glanced at Song Kai, and chuckled, "It's not that Brother Kai has appeared, and then he has replaced them in secret, right?"

Unexpectedly, Xu Xuanrong also came to tease him, and Song Kai said helplessly: "I'm not that bored."

"But this time there are indeed many extremely outstanding talents," Xu Xuanrong picked up a list submitted with the rankings of each company and smiled, "It's a pity that either has been recruited or has the support of the power behind him. What a pity!"

Song Kai reached out to pass the list and looked down.

Except for those who are purely making a fame, most of the other speakers have shown outstanding abilities, among which nine of the most dazzling performers.

Li Yuezhou of Confucianism, Wei Jinxiu and 6 Xiufu, Ding Yanzhi of the Legalist and Wen Yuancai, Wu Jiamin of the ranks and the ranks of the ranks of the military, Feng Shubo of the military, Xu Yanli and Guo Fengjie of the miscellaneous.

Among these nine people, Li Yuezhou, Ding Yanzhi, Xu Yanli, Wu Jiamin, and Feng Shubo are all in their early twenties, Wen Yuancai, Guo Fengjie and Hei Wumeng from the Mongolian Mongolian King's tent are both around thirty years old. The remaining Wei Jinxiu and 6 Xiufu are just middle-aged and elderly people in their fifties and sixties.

This Hundred Schools Forum is of great significance. It can be said that it is a direct demonstration of the strength of each university in front of the world. Therefore, all the university schools are fully committed and do their best.

However, Confucianism is the strongest school among the hundreds of Chinese schools on the surface. Among the nine people who performed the most outstandingly this time, they occupied three of them, and if it were one-third.

However, when looking through the information of these three people, Song Kai couldn't help but sneer, "Confucianism is really doing whatever it takes to make a name for its reputation! 6 Xiufu, Minister of Revenue, Li Yuezhou, Confucian Confucius successor, Wei Jinxiu, and Jinghu South Road General Secretary, the three are extremely noble, compared with those scholars who are mostly from poor families, hey."

Xu Xuanrong smiled slightly and sneered: "Brother Kai, Confucianism has done a good job. At least we should be glad that none of the six ministers did not end, right?"

Song Kai grinned slightly, but when it comes to the six ministers of the six ministers, his eyebrows also condensed: "But I heard that this time, the Hundred Schools Forum, Wang Anshi, Zhao Tingzhi and other six ministers of the ministers also came here, but they all hid their identities in the Confucian team. They are extremely powerful, and my spies dare not enter and spy at will."

"It's probably here, and I'm afraid there are no less than two people," Xu Xuanrong pursed his lips slightly and pondered. "According to the current situation, when the three schools of thought are debated tomorrow, these ministers may appear to show their support. At that time, Confucianism has overwhelmed other schools in its momentum."

Thinking of Ding Yanzhi, Song Kai narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a moment, he shook his head and said, "Anyway, the Legalists do not. Ding, I know the abilities of Ding Yanzhi. Even if the Confucians have a noble status, they will not be affected at all."

"That's for sure!" Wu Xue blinked and laughed, "Brother Ding is a male god!"

Song Xu and the other two ignored her. They were talking. Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came from downstairs. Then, He Li, the deputy shadow master of the Ancient Division, stepped upstairs quickly. With his lightness skills, the footsteps just now were obviously to remind Song Kai and others to come.

When he arrived at the top floor, Heli handed a stack of manuscripts stained with blood to Xu Xuanrong and said calmly: "In the afternoon, some people saw that Buddhism was buying the number of tickets for the audience. I followed them for an afternoon and caught three old monks. This was their confession of spending money to buy tickets."

Seeing the confession stained with blood, Xu Xuanrong couldn't help but frown slightly. He Li sneered when he saw this: "Is Lord Xu also afraid of blood? At least I know that the princess is not afraid."

Xu Xuanrong's eyes were slightly condensed, and Song Kai also cut his eyebrows and frowned, and said lightly: "Brother He is the deputy shadow master of the Ancient Division, and he is busy with work, so Song will not keep it."

He Li glanced at him, sneered slightly, threw the confession onto the table, turned around and walked down the roof of the stairs.

Staring at the manuscript, Xu Xuanrong suddenly sighed: "Brother Kai, you don't need this."

While she was talking, she had already picked up her confession and read it.

After a while, Xu Xuanrong handed the confession to Song Kai. Seeing that the other party looked down, he smiled and said, "There is no problem with confession. Buddhism sent a few old monks to buy some people and asked them to help them serve as second-hand dealers to buy tickets from others."

After reading the confession, Song Kai looked up and thought: "Since that's the case, the number of votes in Buddhism needs to be deducted by 100 votes. I remember that the third-placed Legalists are only sixteen votes apart. In this way, the Legalists will rank second and the Buddhists will third."

Xu Xuanrong smiled slightly, and was about to speak, a small official who was responsible for counting the votes quickly went upstairs and presented the list of new votes for each company. After Xu Xuanrong and Song Kai looked at each other, they couldn't help but look at each other, and a strange smile appeared on the corners of their lips.
