"The tiger is the lord of all beasts, and you don't dare to offend his wrath. Only the love between father and son can turn back one step at a time."
"Is this kid homesick?"
"Where is he from?"
Yan Mingchao asked while admiring the painting of a tiger looking at a child on Zhang Xiaopou's face.
"Grandmaster, since it is only the preliminaries now and there are too many participants, we will simply register the contestants' information for the time being. We plan to wait until the second stage of the main competition to conduct detailed identity verification and registration." Zhao Dongqing replied.
Yan Mingchao nodded and said: "With this guy's alchemy skills, if nothing unexpected happens, it shouldn't be a problem to make it to the finals..."
As he said that, he looked back, his eyes fell on Liu Zhihuan, and said: "With the alchemy skills of the boy Huan, he can naturally enter the finals, so let me watch a final in advance."
Liu Zhihuan bowed and said, "Young man will do your best to not disappoint the Grand Master."
There was also a table in front of him, and the things placed on it were exactly the same as those on the table in the examination room. He was preparing for a real alchemy competition with Zhang Xiaozu.
Yan Mingchao stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Although it is a competition, don't be too deliberate, too demanding, and don't be nervous. Only by being calm and calm can you be comfortable when refining elixirs, exert your best skills, and refine the best elixirs." .”
"Thank you, great master, for your teaching. I will keep it in my heart, my disciples." Liu Zhihuan bowed deeply to Yan Mingchao.
"Zhihuan, adjust your state, the game is about to start." Zhao Dongqing reminded.
Liu Zhihuan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, and his condition was adjusted to the best.
In fact, he has been adjusting his condition since yesterday.
It can be seen that he attaches great importance to this game.
"Game start!"
On the high platform in front of the examination room, Liu Chunfeng gave an order, and the final game of the preliminary round began.
This time, each contestant was equipped with an invigilator, who was responsible for recording time and supervising whether the contestants cheated.
Zhang Xiaozu took out the alchemy furnace, and the invigilator came forward to check. After confirming that there were no elixirs hidden in the alchemy furnace in advance, he lit a stick of incense for timing, signaling to Zhang Xiaozu that he could start.
Zhang Xiaozu used the elixir fire, preheated the elixir furnace, and then poured in the spiritual liquid.
The ectoplasm is prepared by the competition, and contestants are prohibited from using their own ectoplasm to prevent cheating.
Zhang Xiaozu was quite critical of this.
If it was absolutely fair and just, he would have nothing to say.
However, if the competition intentionally favors a certain contestant, or does not want a certain contestant to be ranked, all it takes is to prepare a special spiritual liquid for him.
It’s also too easy to interfere in the game.
For ordinary contestants like them, there is really no guarantee of fairness and justice.
However, he could only mutter a few words in his heart, knowing that if Linlang Pavilion and the Liu family were determined to protect Liu Zhihuan from winning the first place, they could come up with a hundred ways to cheat.
As the spiritual liquid heated up, Zhang Xiaozu began to put the elixir and spiritual materials into the alchemy furnace.
Without his own special spiritual liquid to stimulate the power of the medicine, he could only slow down the refining speed slightly, control the fire with his left hand, and pinch the magic with his right hand, and put the power of the curse seals into the alchemy furnace to replace the effects of Jiuxiang and Thunder Fei, stimulating Potency.
However, even if he has slowed down, it is still much faster than the normal refining speed.
The fire was raging fiercely, and the elixirs and materials were thrown in fiercely.
Alchemy was originally an extremely delicate job, but in his hands it became wild and unrestrained.
"Gulu!"
The invigilator on the side was so frightened that his eyelids jumped, he swallowed his saliva and stepped back a few steps, vigilantly putting up his own defense.
He is also an alchemist.
Although his alchemy skills are not very high, he still knows some basic alchemy knowledge. In his eyes, Zhang Xiaopou's outrageous operation is basically running towards the explosion of the furnace.
This is not refining alchemy, it is clearly stewing.
If the alchemy stove is replaced by an iron pot, it will definitely be the way a cook stews chowder at a country banquet.
"If the furnace explodes, I dare not say anything else. The power will definitely be the first in the game!"
"Dry!"
"It's not if, it's definitely going to explode!"
"I need to get away quickly!"
The invigilator was panicking.
He first took ten steps back, then ten steps back, and wanted to take another ten steps back, but his back hit the partition and there was no way to retreat.
Seeing that Zhang Xiaopou's operation was still bold and unrestrained, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and couldn't help but remind him: "You...you can't do this, be careful of the explosion! I had no grievances with you in the past, and we have no grievances today. Don't harm me." ah!"
He shouted the last sentence in his heart.
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaozhu turned around and bared his teeth at the frightened invigilator, and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, I can't blow up the furnace. Even if it blows up, it won't blow you up. Let me tell you, my pill furnace is very strong. , and it has been tested for a long time, and the furnace cannot be broken. At most, the lid of the furnace can be lifted to the sky."
"Tested for a long time?" The invigilator's eyes widened and he asked in a trembling voice, "Does it mean that your alchemy furnace often explodes?"
However, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt that his question was redundant. He felt that using Zhang Xiaozhu's method of making alchemy, it was normal to blow up the furnace, but it was abnormal not to blow up the furnace.
"Remember when I—"
"Master, stop thinking about it and concentrate on making elixirs."
The invigilator looked sad and interrupted Zhang Xiaopou's reminiscing about the past.
He regretted it so much now. He thought he could secretly learn some alchemy skills by being the proctor of the specially invited alchemist Zhang Xiaozu, but he never expected that this would be the case.
I haven't learned a single bit of alchemy technique, yet my life is in danger.
The only thing that can give him some psychological comfort at the moment is that Zhang Xiaozu is a specially invited alchemist. Maybe... probably... maybe he has his own unique method of alchemy... right?
"It shouldn't explode."
"Because if you blow up the furnace, you will be eliminated. He can't risk his own future..."
"Dry!"
"Who can help me?"
The invigilator wanted to comfort himself, thinking that it was impossible for Zhang Xiaozu to joke about the competition, but suddenly he saw Zhang Xiaozu throwing the remaining three elixirs into the alchemy furnace. It was simply a joke.
His face turned pale with fright, and he turned on his body defense to the maximum, assuming the strongest defensive posture in his life.
"Don't be like this." Zhang Xiaozu turned back to look at the invigilator and said with a depressed look on his face: "If someone sees you like this, they will definitely think that the poison in my alchemy furnace is poisonous to people's lives."
The invigilator almost cried when he heard this, and wailed in his heart: "You should stop doing this to your uncle, right? Although the things you refine in the alchemy furnace are not highly poisonous, they are no less dangerous than those in the drama. Is poison good?"
Seeing that Zhang Xiaopou kept looking at him without even looking at the alchemy furnace, he hurriedly shouted: "No, no, no, don't be distracted by talking to me, and concentrate on making alchemy, okay? I'm just... I'm just nervous for you, It’s not that you’re afraid, don’t think too much about it.”
He said with a sad face and against his will.
In fact, his heart was already hanging in his throat. He didn't understand how Zhang Xiaopou could still distract himself from talking to him at this critical moment. Was his brain kicked by a donkey?
In a daze, he even saw that the alchemy furnace was expanding rapidly and was about to burst with a bang.
Zhang Xiaozhu saw that instead of relaxing, the invigilator became more nervous and frightened, and even his legs began to tremble. He couldn't help but said angrily: "Your legs are trembling with fear, and you still say that you are not afraid? That's too much. , is my alchemy so terrible? I will have to complain to your boss later, saying that you have seriously affected my mood in alchemy."
The invigilator's eyes widened when he heard this: "..."
If he had a sword in his hand, he might just give Zhang Xiaopou a blow.
Some people died, but not completely...
