On the day of the alchemy competition, Mingyue Pavilion was buzzing with people. The competition venue was packed with seats. Many people even stood and wanted to watch the two alchemy masters compete.
Duanmu Lei, who can almost be regarded as the talker under Elder Duanmu of the Duanmu family, was naturally complimented by others, and Duanmu Liang, who was beside him, attracted even more attention. However, the most eye-catching people present were the two Jin Yue. Saint.
Lan Xiangying was the judge, Lu You was Master Lin's backer, and Mei Zhuying, Lan Xiangying's disciple and the first alchemist among the descendants of the Holy Maiden Palace, was there.
Although Master Lin has not arrived yet, there is no shortage of topics to talk about. At least many people are comparing who is better between the Holy Maiden and Duanmu Liang.
Amid the discussion, time passed little by little, and it was agreed to start at noon. However, it was less than half an hour before noon, and Master Lin still did not show up. This made Duanmu Liang, who was still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, a little anxious.
"Sage Lu, that Master Lin is so arrogant. We have all arrived, but he hasn't arrived yet. This is really unjustifiable, isn't it? Or is there something unexpected?" As Duanmu Liang's elder, Duanmu Lei was anxious when he saw his grandnephew. Simply ask.
"Mr. Duanmu, the time has not come yet, there is no need to rush!" Lu You said calmly.
"If the time is up and the person has not arrived, then he will lose. I don't think the three judges will have any meaning to this, right?" Duan Mulei asked.
"Of course this won't be meaningful. If you can't even keep time, what's the use of winning or losing?" Bi Qi said with a raised eyebrow.
"But if Lin Haotian really doesn't arrive on time, will it end like this?" The alchemy master named Han Gu, who was judging from another seat, asked.
"If that Lin Haotian misses the time, I think it's better to ask Saint Mei to come down and compete with Mr. Duanmu. We are both rising stars, so we can appreciate the wonderful skills of the younger generation." Bi Qi suggested with a smile.
When Lan Xiangying heard this, she glanced at Bi Qi. Bi Qi also immediately felt a chill, but the words had been spoken and it was naturally impossible to take them back.
Duanmu Lei then looked at Mei Zhuying and said with a smile: "I think this proposal is a good one, what do you think of Saint Mei?"
Mei Zhuying narrowed her eyes and looked at Duanmu Liang, who was sitting next to Duanmu Lei, and said calmly: "I don't care!"
Hearing this, Duanmu Lei glanced at Duanmu Liang, and Duanmu Liang immediately understood and said: "Since Saint Mei said this, I am willing to ask Saint Mei for advice whether Lin Haotian comes or not."
"It's easy to say. It's okay if the man named Lin doesn't come. If he comes, whoever wins will compete with Xiaomei." Lan Xiangying interjected at this time. Obviously, for her, something suddenly happened. Some of his disciples were not happy.
"This...Okay, let's do it like this!" Duanmu Liang felt a little uncomfortable when Lan Xiangying said this, but after all, the other party was on the same level as his second grandfather, so he could only hold back his anger and agreed. .
Others were very excited when they heard these words. At least they wouldn't have come to waste, and they might even see two wonderful alchemy competitions in succession. You know, these alchemists usually hide in the alchemy room. , how can there be such a public performance.
Just when everyone was talking about it, someone suddenly shouted "Master Lin is here" and then everyone looked towards the stairs.
Everyone saw a pretty girl running upstairs in front of everyone. After coming up, she said to the people below: "Master, we seem to be a little late!"
"It's not too late. It's noon as promised. It's not here yet!" Soon followed by an unhurried voice, Lin Haoming walked upstairs unhurriedly.
After Lin Haoming went upstairs, he looked at everyone in the venue. He came to Lu You first and said hello: "Saint Lu, long time no see!"
"Master Lin, you're welcome. This is Sister Lan. You should have heard of her disciple Mei Zhuying, right?" Lu You introduced.
"It turns out it's the Blue Saint, who has been admired by the Plum Saint Lin for a long time!" After hearing this, Lin Haoming deliberately raised his hands to the two women.
"Master Lin is so arrogant for coming so late!" Lan Xiangying didn't give Lin Haoming face and scolded her directly.
After hearing this, Lin Haoming still had a smile on his lips, but he didn't respond. He seemed to be smiling without saying a word.
"Since it's getting late, let's get started!" Lu You took the initiative to speak at this time.
As she said this, Bi Qi, who was both a landowner and a judge, came over and asked Lin Haoming to sit down.
At this time, Lu You also introduced this person and another judge, Han Gu.
Bi Qi, Lan Xiangying, was neither cold nor hot, but these two had smiling faces. It was obvious that they understood the ways of the world better than the Saint.
Lin Haoming was sitting aside, and Bi Qi walked to the center of the competition venue at this time, cupped his hands towards everyone present and said: "Everyone, both sides of the competition have arrived now, and the agreed competition time has almost arrived. In this case, Bi is here Let me talk about the rules first. Of course, when two alchemists are competing, you are not allowed to make noises that will affect the two of you. If anyone does something out of line, don’t blame me for being rude and driving you out."
"Don't worry, Master Bi. We know this well and will not deliberately disturb the two masters!" After hearing this, someone quickly responded.
Bi Qi also nodded and continued: "The alchemy furnaces used by both parties in the competition are of the same quality and materials provided by us to avoid differences in the alchemy furnaces. The specific competition is divided into three stages. The first stage is the basic elixir. Refining, to put it simply, gives two people three common elixirs with the same amount of materials. In the end, it’s up to who can refine more elixirs. The one with more will win. The second game is the refining of designated elixirs. The three of us judges jointly designated an elixir. The ingredients of the elixir are all three parts. At this stage, it depends on who can refine the elixir of better quality. We don’t care about the quantity of the elixir refined. In the end We will give two people a hundred kinds of materials in one game, and they must choose the materials to refine the elixir. In the end, we will see who can refine the elixir with a higher value."
Everyone started whispering when they heard such a competition. It was obviously an eye-opener for those present, especially the final selection of materials for elixir making, which was absolutely exciting.
After Bi Qi finished speaking, he looked at Lin Haoming and Duanmu Liang, who were sitting on both sides, and asked with a smile: "Do you two have any objections or things you don't understand about the rules of the competition? If not, let's start." Got it!"
"No problem!" Duanmu Liang was the first to say.
Lin Haoming also smiled and said: "Lin has no objections!"
Seeing that both of them had no problem, Bi Qi smiled and said: "Well, now that this is the case, then the competition will begin. In the end, the three of us will decide the winner. Let's invite the two first rounders first!"
