Tian Heng's face darkened and he asked: "Leader Lu, none of the three of them can achieve elixirs. Why are they ranked in order?"
Lu Guangsheng glanced at Tian Heng and said calmly: "As an alchemy judge, I naturally judge the ranking impartially. The alchemy competition consists of four steps: purification, tempering, melting elixirs, and collecting elixirs. Each step has Score accordingly.”
"Although the three of them failed at the final moment of collecting the elixir, the first three steps can also determine the pros and cons. Do you still have any objections?"
Lu Guangsheng frowned slightly. The other five deans didn't say anything and could only accept the ranking in front of them.
Seeing that he stopped talking, Shen Tianji winked, and two disciples from Tianji Academy brought out a screen and came to the judging table.
I saw the names of the six major colleges written on the screen, and there were nine rows of spaces under each name, respectively writing the competition items such as Dan Dao, Talisman Dao, Qi Dao, etc. At this time, one of the disciples from Tianji Academy was in the row of alchemy at the back, writing down the scores obtained by his respective academy.
Under the alchemy box of Famous Sword Academy, what is written is exactly a "cross", which obviously means ten points.
Cheng Ling raised his eyes, woke up instantly, and said, "It seems that the total score of the nine competitions is 90 points. This is very clear and easy to calculate!"
Jian Yinghao shook his head and said: "No, Brother Cheng, the total score of the nine competitions is one hundred points. The team competition has the largest score. The first place can get twenty points. The first place in the other eight items will get ten points. The second place will get nine points, the third place will have eight points, the fourth place will have seven points, the fifth place will have six points, and the sixth place will have five points. When all ten competitions are over, the points earned by each college can be calculated. "
"Oh! So, you are going to participate in the next Fu Dao competition even though you know you will only be at the bottom? I wonder if the master of the academy has found any disciples who are good at Fu Dao?"
"You don't need to worry about this, you have already prepared for the Fu Dao competition!"
Cheng Ling felt relieved. After a while, Shen Tianji announced that the Fu Dao competition had begun!
Six more disciples entered the competition venue. Cheng Ling glanced at the disciples sent by the Famous Sword Academy. They were only cultivating gods, and they looked very unfamiliar, and they didn't recognize them. He didn't care. He was not good at Fu Dao. The academy didn't have talents in this area, and there was nothing he could do.
Among the six major academies, Tianji Academy and Canglang Academy specialize in Fu Dao, while the other academies are about the same. The refining of talismans is also an auxiliary method for cultivating Taoism. It can gain bonuses in terms of attack, defense, speed, etc. There are also some special talismans that have unexpected effects.
The broad and profound aspects are not under the other three auxiliary means. The only difference is that talismans are basically the same as elixirs. They are one-time consumables. Without a certain amount of wealth, you simply cannot bear the consumption of refining talismans.
The competition lasted for more than two hours. In the end, Tianji Academy was superior and won the first place, while Canglang Academy came in second, finally saving some face for Tian Heng. Yunlan College ranked third, Nangong College ranked fourth, Luotian College ranked fifth, and Mingjian Academy, as expected, could only be ranked at the bottom, barely getting five points.
The two competitions took a day, and as night fell, Shen Tianji announced that today's competition was over, and the third Qi Dao competition would be held tomorrow.
Everyone dispersed one by one, and Zhao Zhongyuan led the disciples from the Famous Sword Academy back to Fan Mansion. On the first day of competition, I got ten points in the first alchemy session.
Fu Dao scored five points in the second game, with a total score of fifteen points, ranking third among the six colleges, which was much better than its previous record.
Tomorrow will be a competition between the weapon method and the formation method. According to Cheng Ling's plan, the chances of winning these two games are very high, and the overall ranking may be improved by one level. It's just that these two competitions are very time-consuming and I'm afraid they won't be able to end in a short time.
However, with the results of today's competition, not to mention the certainty of victory in the next few competitions, after all, my confidence has greatly increased. I have a bright heart along the way, and the eyes I look at Cheng Ling are much kinder.
Time passed quickly, and the next day, the six colleges came to the competition venue again.
Shen Tianji announced: "The first thing to be held today is the Qi Dao Competition. All participating disciples from all academies are invited to come forward."
Zhang Hu nodded to Cheng Ling and walked to the competition area. Six academy disciples occupied a position, and the referee announced the start of the game.
The rules of the Weapon Dao Competition are similar to those of the Alchemy Dao Competition. It is to see who can refine the treasures with higher grade and better quality. No matter you are refining swords, knives, armors or defensive treasures, as long as you can refine them, Naturally, experts from the Qi League were invited to come and judge.
The weapon refining judge invited this time is Jin Buqi, the deputy leader of the Qi Alliance. He looked at the six competing disciples in the field and saw that they had all begun to smelt materials. Some use earth fire, some use talisman fire, and some use heaven and earth strange fire, and there are many kinds of flames.
But when he glanced at Zhang Hu, his eyes froze. Feng Yanhuo, ranked sixth among the strange fires in the world, was also cyan. This junior is not simple!
After the six disciples in the field were smelted with flames, they had nothing to do and could only wait there. Each of the deans at the judging table brewed a pot of strong tea. Hu Tian was so arrogant that he started bragging and spanking openly on the table.
The surrounding audience was also helpless. The Weapon Dao Competition was the most boring. It would take several days to smelt just one kind of material. If the level was high, it might take months or years. Of course, after all, this is not a place to show off your skills, but a place for competition.
The six disciples in the field would not be so indifferent, making the bosses and the audience wait for ten days and a half, but a few hours of waiting is still necessary.
At this time, Zhang Hu's advantage was revealed. Feng Yanhuo ranks sixth among the strange fires of heaven and earth, and it has been upgraded to cyan. The power of the flames is so huge. If Cheng Ling hadn't told him to try not to raise the flame level too high to avoid attracting others' covetousness, he could have upgraded to blue.
Despite this, it only took him three hours to smelt his materials. He casually took out a hammer from the ring and started banging it. Zhang Hu's weapon refining inheritance came from Canghai Dragon Palace, and the grade recorded in it was not high.
It wasn't until Cheng Ling received the sixth-grade weapon refining inheritance from Wanbao Pavilion that he made great progress and the weapon refining methods became systematic. It's a pity that these inheritances are not very clever, and there are no corresponding weapon refining techniques.
Tool refining is generally divided into five steps: melting, casting, quenching, patterning and engraving. Melting means smelting, melting the material you want to refine to form a utensil embryo; casting means removing impurities from the utensil embryo to form the outline of a utensil; quenching means quenching, putting the smelted utensils into place. Tempering and cooling in flames and ice water allow the characteristics of the material to be integrated more thoroughly.
All that's left is to embroider and engrave. Engraving patterns on the embryonic vessel, and sealing the
Maximize the power and also add speed or attributes to the sword. These are the final steps, but they are the most delicate process.
As time passed, the embryo in Zhang Hu's hand gradually took shape, leaving only the final carvings. At this time, it is necessary to change to a smaller hammer and no longer use brute force to hit. It took a whole day of careful hammering before the entire sword was completely engraved.
He took a long breath, gently lifted the sword with his left hand, and stretched out two fingers with his right hand. Starting from the tail of the sword, he slowly moved to the tip of the sword, feeling the hardness, softness, and toughness of the sword all the way. In the end, he nodded with satisfaction. This was a top-notch middle-grade sword, reaching the limit of a sixth-grade master.
Respectfully brought it to the judges' table and handed it over. He just saw a steel claw placed in front of the judges' table. Someone must have refined it faster than him.
In addition to the deans of the six major academies, the judges of the Qi Dao competition this time were also Jin Buqi, the deputy leader of the Qi Alliance. After receiving the sword handed over by Zhang Hu, the six deans naturally invited him to come and taste it. Jin Buqi did not refuse, observed carefully, and nodded slightly.
After all six disciples had finished refining and looked at each one, the rankings were announced.
Among the six major academies, Luotian Academy has refined its weapons. After a competition, the middle-grade sword weapon refined by Zhang Hu was still slightly inferior to the steel claw of Luotian Academy, ranking second and scoring nine points. Nangong College ranked third, Tianji College ranked fourth, Yunlan College ranked fifth, and Canglang College ranked sixth.
Zhao Zhongyuan was very satisfied when he heard that he had lost points in this competition in the past, but it was an unexpected surprise to be ranked second. He glanced at Zhang Hu appreciatively, leaned back in his chair, and immediately relaxed.
Tian Heng's face was gloomy. This time he was ranked the lowest, and the situation was not good. What puzzled him the most was the Famous Sword Academy. When did they have such powerful talents in the alchemy weapon array? They searched all over the world, but they couldn't find it!
The weapon training competition took a day and a night, and the fourth round of formation training could only be postponed to tomorrow.
On the fourth day, the formation competition officially began.
Finally it was Cheng Ling's turn to appear. He smiled lightly, rolled down his sleeves, and walked into the competition venue first.
The judge invited today is none other than the leader of the formation alliance and the number one person in the formation path of Canglan Continent, Li Guanglin.
He glanced at the six disciples in the field and said calmly: "The rules of the array competition are different from the previous games. The method of the competition is that I will set up the early stage of the sixth stage, the middle stage of the sixth stage, the late stage of the sixth stage, and the final stage of the sixth stage." The eight formations are Peak Grade, Early Grade Seven, Middle Grade Seven, Late Grade Seven, and Peak Seventh Grade.”
"At that time, the disciples from the major colleges will go to break the formation. Within ten days, they can break wherever they can."
Everyone agreed after hearing this. Although this method cannot completely measure the formation level of each disciple, it is simple and saves time. Otherwise, it would take years and months to crack the formations one by one.
I remember that Cheng Ling spent twenty years in the island secret realm to crack the ninth-grade formation. An ordinary formation master, after a long period of deduction, can crack a formation that is better than his own grade. It just takes time. question.
After hearing this, Cheng Ling nodded happily. With his level of formation, he really couldn't bear to waste time with them here.
Li Guanglin waited until everyone was ready, then announced the start of the competition!
