The competition time for the first group came quickly, and more than half of them failed to complete all three competition events in time.
Coupled with the fact that some were completed in a hurry and the quality was not up to the top grade, most of the people failed to advance to the next round.
Then came the second group's competition. An hour later it was noon, and there was a short break of half an hour.
The third group of competitions started in the afternoon. There were always some amazing weapon refiners in each group, and the proportion of those who were eliminated was about the same.
In the end, there were only eighty-six weapon refiners who entered the second round. Some of the weapon refiner sects were eliminated as a whole. They naturally became the laughing stock of many forces.
After that, the auction started, and several excellent third-level spirit swords and nine pieces of top-quality third-level rock iron were auctioned off one after another.
Yan Liang's third-level top-grade spiritual sword is no longer weaker than the fourth-level low-grade spiritual sword. In addition, there is an explosion ban, and the starting price is eight hundred spiritual stones.
Many forces made bids one after another, and after fierce bidding, one force finally bought it for three thousand spiritual stones.
Nine pieces of third-grade rock iron were divided into nine parts, and a total of 6,500 spirit stones were auctioned. This raw material was basically auctioned off by other weapon refining sects.
Yun'er's spirit sword was of top quality among the top grade. The base price started at three hundred, but it actually sold a thousand spirit stones at auction.
No. 3 Xiang Junde's spiritual sword was among the best among the top grade, and only a thousand spiritual stones were auctioned.
The quality of the spirit swords No. 1 and No. 2 were not much different, but both only yielded eight hundred spirit stones.
In addition, there were several people who forged spiritual swords that were considered to be of the highest quality. Hundreds of spiritual stones were auctioned, but none of them exceeded seven hundred spiritual stones.
After the auction, Vice President Wen Zimo made a brief concluding speech, and the competition ended that day because the participants still needed time to recover.
Yanliang declined the banquet invitations from many forces because he had to prepare with all his strength before the game was over, and the forces also expressed their understanding.
The competition went on as scheduled the next day. This second round of competition was a ranking competition. The first to eighty-sixth place were directly ranked. Only the top ten could enter the third round.
The rules of this round of competition are based on a points system, with separate scoring from four categories: refining, tempering, prohibition, and finished product.
Participants can perform freely and show their best performance in their respective projects.
Eighty-six people entered their respective forging stations in the order of increasing vacancies.
There is a list of materials on the forging table, which lists the third-, fourth- and even fifth-level raw materials prepared for this round of competition.
There are metal rough stones, rock rough stones, gemstones, and various materials from herbs and monsters.
Participants can choose materials they are good at to participate in the competition. Materials can be selected four times for the four categories.
Yanliang glanced at these materials, and a smile appeared on his lips. Many of them were familiar materials, and he had practiced them countless times in the past few days.
The first assessment was the difficulty and purity of refining. Yanliang Refining selected a hot spring water stone, which is a fourth-level material.
Although higher-level materials will have corresponding bonus points in terms of difficulty, if they are not refined well, it will naturally affect the final score.
He thought that without using soul fire, it would be wisest to choose materials of his own level.
The hot spring water stone in his hand was wrapped in spiritual fire and quickly calcined. He skillfully controlled the hot spring water stone in his hand to roll up, down, left and right.
The hot spring water stones were quickly melted into a liquid state by the spiritual fire, and the impurities were controlled to separate quickly, and some of them were directly calcined clean.
As the hot spring water stone continues to shrink in the hand, its purity increases rapidly, reaching 70%, 80%, and after 85%, the refining speed slows down.
Because the spiritual fire at the peak of the Great Spiritual Master is not hot enough, some of the fine impurities cannot be burned out directly. This is no longer a skill that can be used to separate them.
He released huge power of thought and separated them one by one. As the impurities were continuously separated, the purity gradually reached 90%.
He quickly scanned the other contestants with his telekinesis, secretly checked their refining status, raised the corner of his mouth slightly and put it into the container.
Several elders came up to examine them carefully, and then handed them to the high platform. After being appraised by the president and others, they gave a score on the spot.
Purity is divided into nine points, and four-grade raw materials add two points, for a total of eleven points.
Yun'er followed closely and completed the refining. What she refined was black gold stone, which was also a fourth-level raw material with a purity of 85%.
After several elders came over to appraise it, they gave it eight points for purity and two points for fourth-grade raw materials. This gave a total of ten points.
Xiang Junde was refining fifth-level raw materials. He wanted to make a breakthrough, but due to the insufficient temperature of the spiritual fire, he ended up refining only 70%.
The elders sent them to the high platform. After identification, they were given six points for purity, four points for fifth-grade raw materials, and ten points for this item.
Numbers 1 and 2 also chose fourth-grade raw materials with a purity of 85%, and both received ten points in the end.
For the second competition event, Yan Liang directly chose the tempering of the fifth-level material heavy iron.
After receiving one hundred high-grade iron bits, he put them all into the underground furnace, adjusted the firepower to the maximum and activated the blessing formation.
Xiang Junde observed him secretly. Seeing him choose the fifth-level raw material at this moment, he gritted his teeth after some hesitation and chose to hammer heavy iron. This made him the target of the fight.
After Yanliang waited for the armatures below to burn red, he tempered them first. As the hammer fell, the quality began to slowly improve.
His training skills had once again achieved breakthroughs in the previous competition, and now he was able to train with ease. After a while, he started the first group of training.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
Now the Nine Heavens Hammer Technique has begun to have its own rhythm, and he can get a kind of feedback every time the hammer falls.
Through this feedback, you can know whether the hammer was struck too lightly or too hard, and you can better sense the changes in their quality and adjust the hammering position.
The hammer continued to fall, and soon nine pieces of high-grade heavy iron were hammered out, and the last set of iron bits was being hammered in his hands.
The success rate of this five-level heavy iron has reached 90%, which firmly attracted the attention of everyone in the field. Their heartbeats repeatedly followed the rhythm of the hammer falling.
As Yanliang's last hammer fell, it seemed as if gas exploded in the armature. The quality suddenly changed dramatically, and a crack suddenly appeared.
Everyone sighed, "It's such a pity that this last step failed..."
"Although it failed, the 90% success rate is also unique..."
"With such a high success rate, we can save a lot of material costs by using him to forge spiritual weapons in the future..."
This time, the elders came up and handed them directly to the high platform, because they were not sure about the fifth-level raw materials.
After appraisal by the president and Ghost Ax, they gave a score of nine points for quality, nine points for success rate, and four points for the fifth-level raw materials. A total of twenty-two points were scored for this item.
After Yanliang completed this task, he couldn't help but look at Yun'er. She was forging the fourth-level armature. Seven of them had been forged on the forging table, and two sets of materials were left.
This already has a success rate of 70%. She has already entered the second level of the silver body and her physical fitness can fully keep up. This kind of steady and steady performance is quite good.
Looking at Xiang Junde again, his face was very ugly, and big beads of sweat were pouring down his face. Due to his limited physical strength and skills, he could only forge four low-grade heavy irons.
Yanliang couldn't help but shook his head, and his mind swept over the others.
Most of them choose hammered armatures, and the speed is roughly between the sixth and eighth groups of materials.
A small number of people are tempering rock iron, but it is not over yet.
The content of the third competition was the ban on runes, which was connected to the finished product of the fourth. He originally wanted to forge meteor boots, but he thought it better not to reveal it.
Because as long as he makes no mistakes, forges other level four equipment, and engraves two superimposed restrictions, his points will be enough to rank first.
Thinking of this, he chose the material of the fourth-level spirit sword. He still improved the quality of the basic armature first, and then shaped it into a rough embryo through familiar methods.
After several slow adjustments, the final refinement began.
After the refinement was completed, he began to carve out the restrictions. He chose the commonly used flame patterns and explosion patterns.
I released my mind power and carefully observed every stroke. After countless strokes, it was now impossible to make mistakes, and soon I was able to complete it very skillfully.
He wrapped a third of the sword's body with spiritual fire, but after it turned slightly red, he branded the word "seeking medical treatment" on the sword's body.
Finally, it is calcined into shape, and a high-grade spiritual sword with cold light is ready.
He grasped the medical sword tightly and swung the sword into the air. A fierce sword energy containing fierce flames burst out, until it exploded after shooting dozens of feet.
"What a sword!" Yue'er narrowed her eyes slightly, stroked her beard and said with a smile.
Ghost Ax also nodded, "This sword is good, but it should not be used to its highest level..."
Many forces applauded, "These seem to be two superimposed restrictions..."
"The flames exploded in the air. They should have added explosion cracks so that they can hit more targets. It's amazing..."
"With this sword in hand, your strength will definitely increase by 30%. I want to buy it as a gift to Quan Zi. Don't fight over it then..."
"I also want to buy it as a gift to my beloved disciple. You can't just buy it at this auction. In the end, it all depends on who pays the higher price..."
The healing sword was taken away by the elder and sent to the high platform.
Yue'er looked carefully and suddenly saw the word "seeking medical treatment". She stood up with some confusion, looked at Yanliang and said, "Little friend, what do you mean by the word "seeking medical treatment" on your sword?"
Yan Liang cupped his fists and saluted, and said: "Reporting to President Gu, I am able to become a weapon refiner and even come here to compete all because of one person. She is my beloved woman. We have been together since we were children and have known each other for a long time. We have become each other's sustenance, but she is ill. We have searched for famous doctors everywhere and many experts for diagnosis, but we have never found a cure, and we have not even been able to figure out the cause... "
Having said this, he looked at Yue'er in the viewing area, his eyes full of love and deep reluctance, "Here I would like to take this opportunity to declare to the world, whoever can heal my girlfriend...I am willing to do it." To give everything……"
This voice shocked everyone's heart, and everyone was moved by his behavior, "What a kind and righteous man..."
"If I were ten years younger, I would probably fall in love with him uncontrollably..."
"I never imagined that such a genius could be so attached to love and justice..."
Yue'er's cheeks were already covered with tears. She stared closely at the man she loved deeply, and shouted with all her strength: "Brother Yanliang, I don't want you to give everything for me, otherwise I won't be able to survive even if I live." Will be happy..."
While many forces were moved, they also began to become curious about what kind of illness it was that the cause could not be found.
Several people on the high platform also looked at each other in confusion. Gu Xiuming sighed slightly, "I didn't expect that he still has such difficulties. I don't know what his condition is?"
Ghost Ax stood up, looked at Yanliang and said: "Little friend Yanliang, can you call your girlfriend here and see if we can see something..."
Yanliang hurriedly raised his fists and said happily: "Then I'll bother you, Senior Ghost Axe..."
Having said this, he turned to look at Yue'er, nodded to her, and said through a message: "Yue'er, come to the high platform and let the seniors take a look..."
