"Master Zhang, you've worked hard, please sit down!" seeing Zhang Yitian's real ability, Luo Ying seemed particularly attentive. She swept the empty seat herself, and almost didn't help Zhang Yitian sit down.
"Lord Luo, don't be so polite. Since I promised you, I will never break my promise." Zhang Yitian reassured Luo Ying.
"What did you say? I don't have the reason to distrust the master?" Luo Ying said so, but her expression was gradually excited. It can be seen that he was still worried just now. Until Zhang Yitian made a guarantee, the big stone hanging in her heart didn't fall, "Don't worry, as long as you can get the top three, I won't take any money from the Luo family. It's all yours. In addition, I'll prepare a big gift for you to express my gratitude."
The Dan King competition is about the influence of Luo family in juejian city in the future. If the results are not satisfactory, it will definitely be a great blow to the family business.
Luo Ying is clearly aware of these problems, so she is so generous. Her purpose is to fight. If Zhang Yitian performs well and takes off his helmet, the return to the Luo family will be absolutely worth more than what she has paid now.
The two sides showed their attitude and position with politeness, and the time passed slowly bit by bit until the last minute in the hourglass was exhausted. The city Lord Sun Da got up and announced, "the game time is up, please present the refined pill."
In the field, people kept getting up and walked quickly towards the ordering platform, scrambling to deliver the pill, trying to compete for the top 30 places
In addition, some people were slow and failed to become elixirs until the specified time. These people maintained a consistent tacit understanding and did not give up alchemy, but insisted. They did so not entirely because they were unwilling. The main reason was that there was an unwritten rule among alchemists.
The regulations are as follows: if the alchemist fails to win the pill in the competition or in private, the alchemist shall not take the initiative to give up the pill in the furnace, and the opponent shall not deliberately interfere.
The main purpose of this provision is to protect the elixir. In the view of alchemists, every herb is a gift from heaven and is not easy to get. Artificially destroying the herb is an extremely bad behavior and disrespect for the way of heaven. Protecting the herb is a necessary moral criterion for every alchemist.
There are many similar unwritten rules in the alchemy world. For example, when collecting medicine, you should "keep one hand", and you can't even let go of immature herbs, except for transplanting.
All the alchemists who handed in the pills went to the audience to rest and wait for the results. The alchemists who did not complete the alchemy task were still busy, and no one dared to disturb them. On the general stage, the city Lord Sun Da was leading a group of respected elders in the city to identify the pills, which affected the hearts and souls of all the people under the stage.
After about half a column of incense, when all the pills were firm, the city Lord Sun Da stood up and announced, "after the identification just now, there were 60 bottles of pills, five of which were defective. The corresponding alchemists of the five bottles of pills were No. 10, No. 23, No. 55, No. 58 and No. 60 respectively!
According to the regulations, the top 30 alchemists will be shortlisted in the first round. Therefore, contestants No. 10 and No. 23 are eliminated. I hope you will make persistent efforts and strive to achieve good results next year. Now I announce that the finalists in the second round are No. 32 and No. 31... "
Sun Da is obviously trying to sell off and deliberately publishes the shortlisted number upside down. As for his purpose, it is unknown.
Until the announcement of the third, sun Da's voice suddenly stopped, looked around the stage with a smile and said: "I was surprised at the beginning of this Dan King competition. Among the 30 finalists, two of them performed very prominently. They were Dan Qiusheng, the 18th alchemist, and Zhang Xuan, the 19th Alchemist.
According to the records, the two of them were the first to become elixirs among all the people present, and the high quality of elixir was greatly unexpected. Among them, the Wujin pill refined by danqiusheng reached the second grade advanced level, which exceeded the original second grade intermediate elixir category of Wujin pill, which can be described as a miracle in the alchemy world. "
After listening to the words of the city Lord Sun Da, there was an uproar in the audience, and the blood eagle, as the contestant, showed a proud smile. He looked at Luo Ying's father and daughter, smiled and said, "Lao Luo, do you hear that? It has reached the second grade advanced level. What does that mean, you know?"
Because Zhang Yitian was the first to complete the task, which made the Luo family proud. Luo Ying was very happy, but now he was run by the blood eagle, which made him very depressed, but he didn't get angry. He endured his anger and pretended to smile and congratulated: "master danqiusheng has lived up to the reputation of the Danxin Pavilion. It's the right person for the head of the blood eagle regiment to invite him. I congratulate someone in Luo."
Zhang Yitian sat beside him and ignored the blood eagle. His eyes crossed danqiusheng's face with a faint smile in his eyes. Aware of being watched by others, danqiusheng turned his head and looked at Zhang Yitian. He didn't feel complacent because he refined the second grade high-grade black gold pill. He was very calm and in sharp contrast to the noisy blood eagle.
At this time, sun Da, who was on the stage, said: "the performance of Dan Qiusheng, the 18th alchemist, has brought the efficacy of Wujin pill into full play, but here, I can tell you that another person's performance is more dazzling than that of Dan Qiusheng. The Wujin pill he refined has reached the highest level and reached the third grade primary level!"
As soon as sun Da said these words, the whole stadium was boiling, and they began to have a heated discussion about who was on the 19th and who Zhang Xuan was
"This..." Luo Ying, who was extremely depressed, was stunned when she heard these words. She looked at Zhang Yitian foolishly, and then looked at her daughter, "Xiaoyue, did you hear your father wrong? Is master sun talking about Master Zhang?"
Luo Hongyue was stunned on the spot, nodded hard, swallowed her saliva and said, "if Lord Sun is right, it should be master Zhang." then she looked at the back of Zhang Yitian sitting in front, and her eyes were full of complex colors.
"Ha ha..." Luo Ying suddenly laughed, more proud than the previous blood eagle, with a trace of contempt in her eyes. She turned her head and said, "head of blood eagle, I'm really sorry. Look at this. I'm surprised!"
One second ago, the blood eagle was still elated. At the moment, his mood fell to a low point. It seemed to be stimulated by Luo Ying's words. He shouted angrily: "the first game of the game has just been played, and there is still a long way behind. The person who laughs to the end is the winner. It's too early to be happy. Be careful. There's no place to cry later."
Compared with Luo Ying's previous self-restraint, the blood eagle is obviously inferior. Whether it is sincere or not, people have sent blessings, but the blood eagle seems small and can't see that others are better than him. In addition to loss, he is unwilling.
"This is sour, head of the blood eagle. Aren't you angry?" Luo Ying lost no time to pick people's nerves.
"I'm sour. Why? I won't accept it. We'll see who wins the next round!" the blood eagle's joys and sorrows were written on his face. In order to be angry, he turned his head and said to Danqiu Sheng, "master, I'm a straightforward man. I'll tell you clearly that as long as you can win Zhang Xuan, I'll add 1000 pieces of Chinese spirit stone to your hard work."
Hearing this, Dan Qiusheng was stunned. A thousand pieces of medium-sized spirit stones are not a small amount. No matter where they are placed, they are a huge sum of money. Although they can't compare with the reward of tens of thousands of spirit stones by the king of Dan, no one will be too rich, and so is Dan Qiusheng.
"I'll try my best." Dan Qiusheng replied in a very flat tone.
Luo's father and daughter and Zhang Yitian were surprised. They looked at the blood eagle like fools, and then looked at each other and couldn't speak.
Luo Ying refused to be outdone and said, "Master Zhang, you can play normally later. Whether you win or lose, our Luo family will offer 2000 pieces of medium-quality spirit stones with both hands as a token of gratitude."
Obviously, Luo Ying was tit for tat with the blood eagle and deliberately took words to provoke people's nerves, but Zhang Yitian, as one of the parties, was not surprised by this, because Luo Ying made a promise and would give generous thanks when she met him. However, at that time, she was ambiguous and didn't say anything specifically. Now she just clarified the matter, Make sure it's a spirit stone.
"Do your best!" Zhang Yitian didn't exaggerate. He was also very modest, but the more stable he was, the heavier the mental pressure he brought to the blood eagle.
At this point in the conversation, the two sides had enough rest. Sun Da immediately announced: "now let's invite the alchemists who have just been shortlisted to enter the competition field for the second round of competition."
Zhang Yitian stood up, arched his hands at Luo's father and daughter, then looked at Dan Qiusheng and nodded at the viewpoint. There was no too much intersection between them. One before and one after another, they stepped onto the stage in the attention of the public.
After taking the stage, Zhang Yitian found a front position to sit down. A pile of medicinal materials had been rearranged on the stone platform. There were many medicinal materials this time, and the difficulty of competition increased. It was to let the alchemist select some of them from many medicinal materials and refine them into pills. Finally, the comparison was the product level of pills, and the one with higher product level won.
"All of you as like as two peas are placed in front of you, you only need to pick out some of them and make them into a Dan medicine, and finally divide the winning and losing with the rank of the product. The time is like the last one. The hourglass is all over, let's start!" Sun Da announced the content of the test, and waved to the side guard. The guard came to the stone table and turned the hourglass to the stone table.
The hourglass began to count, and the 30 finalists began to carefully identify the medicinal materials in their hands, and thought hard about the pills they could refine. Zhang Yitian, too, glanced at the herbs one by one. Every time he picked up a herb, his memory would fly in his mind. Zhang Dan prescriptions flashed in his mind to select the most suitable Dan prescriptions
"Just you." until a certain moment, Zhang Yitian's thoughts stopped on a Dan square called purple fire Dan.
According to Zhang Yitian's observation, the herbs in this round are similar to the last one. They are all fire attribute herbs, which makes him think about the ice lake. Purple fire pill also has the effect of keeping out the cold, but it is also aggressive. This pill can transform the force or vitality into purple fire to attack the enemy. Purple fire is a different fire that even the returning monks can't resist. As long as it is contaminated with a little, the flesh will burn to ashes in an instant.
