After hearing what the waiter said, Ye Li finally understood the whole story and said, "I didn't expect it to be like this. Does this competition mean that anyone who is selected will be able to join the Foundry Hall?"
The waiter shook his head and said, "Sir, you may have misunderstood. Although the purpose of Master Ou Qianxie holding this competition is to recruit some potential apprentices, it is not mandatory to recruit people. It still requires the consent of both parties.
The reward for the first place in this competition is very generous. It is said to be an elixir that can stimulate the power of the Wood Element Talisman Root, the Jia Yi Linglong Pill.
It is precisely because of this that countless people have come to participate in the competition. Some want to become apprentices in the Foundry Hall, and some come purely for the reward of Jiayi Linglong Dan.
The rules of this competition are that any talisman master below the Spiritual Pill Stage can participate, as long as they have expertise in making external talismans."
Seeing the waiter's detailed account, Ye Li couldn't help but look him up and down and said, "I see you are not a cultivator either, how come you know these things so clearly?"
The waiter laughed and said, "Sir, you know that our inn's business is all about customers from all over the world. We waiters naturally have wider ears, and the more we hear, the more we understand.
What's more, everyone is familiar with the people in the Weapon Foundry Hall. Master Ou Qianxie has always been approachable. Although we don't know why he lost power in the hall, we still stand on his side and want to help him.
The shopkeeper also instructed us to explain as much as possible to anyone who wants to know about the competition."
Ye Li finally understood. It seemed that although Ou Qianxie had lost power in his own weapon foundry, his reputation among the people was still quite high. Even the inns were willing to help him promote the competition.
After thinking about it, Ye Li felt a little itchy in his heart. The reason was not because he wanted to become an apprentice of the Weapon Foundry Hall, but because of the Jiayi Linglong Pill.
The effect of Jia Yi Linglong Dan is much better than the Chi Yan Dan he took before. In his opinion, if the talisman root activated by Chi Yan Dan manifests as a fire talisman on his body, then Jia Yi Linglong Dan will most likely manifest as two talismans.
Although Ye Li could definitely buy this kind of elixir with his current spirit stones, elixirs that could activate talisman roots had always been in short supply, and he had no idea where he could buy one.
And now that he had a chance to get a pill without spending spirit stones, he naturally wanted to fight for it. After all, he was more or less confident in his ability to draw external talismans.
"Little Brother, when will this competition be held? Can we still sign up now?"
Ye Li asked.
The waiter nodded and said, "Sir, if you want to participate, it's still in time to sign up. The competition will start in three days.
The registration location is in the center of the city. Master Ou Qianxie's disciples have set up a registration point there. You can see it as long as you go there."
After hearing what the waiter said, Ye Li decided to go over and take a look.
After thanking the waiter, he left the inn and walked towards the city center.
While walking on the street, he could occasionally hear passers-by discussing the competition, and many people were rushing to sign up.
Soon, Ye Li arrived at the center of Jinlong City. As expected, the place was crowded with people, most of whom gathered around a makeshift bamboo shed.
Ye Li walked over slowly and looked towards the bamboo shed. He immediately saw a large sign hanging in front of it with the words "Registration Office for the Foreign Talisman Competition" written on it.
Many people were queuing up and walking towards the shed, obviously they were all people who had registered to participate in the competition.
Ye Li gently pushed aside the crowd watching nearby and came to the back of the team.
He looked at the contestants lined up in front of him. Most of them were in their thirties or forties. Only a few looked relatively young, around twenties. He didn't see anyone as young as him.
Seeing Ye Li joining the queue, a fat middle-aged man in front of him chuckled and said with disdain: "Master Ou is really something. Just relying on his name alone can attract enough people. Why does he need to add Jiayi Linglong Pill
Now, everyone comes to participate in the competition.
Boy, judging from your age, you probably can't even draw a few spells. Do you also want Jia Yi Linglong Dan?"
Seeing the other party's disdainful look, Ye Li was a little puzzled. What does his participation in the competition have to do with his age
But he was not someone who got angry easily, so he didn't care much. He just nodded and answered honestly: "I do want Jiayi Linglong Pill."
Hearing Ye Li's unabashed answer, the fat man was stunned for a moment, then his eyes became even more contemptuous, and he said: "Young man, you really don't know your place. I have seen many people like you. At best, you can only make some external talismans. You actually dare to compete for the first place in the competition. You are really shameless."
After hearing the other party's repeated ridicule, Ye Li also became a little angry.
After half a year of wandering around, he realized that the more tolerant you are in the underworld, the better off you will be. In many cases, you have to be tougher so that people won't dare to cause trouble for you.
"Whether I participate in the competition or not, whether I can win first place or not has nothing to do with you, why are you talking nonsense here
You think others will lose before they even compete. You are so arrogant.
Ye Li looked into the fat man's eyes and said coldly.
Hearing Ye Li's counterattack, the fat man's face trembled, his squinting eyes squeezed together, and he said: "Stinky boy, do you know who I am and how dare you talk to me like this
Although my Wugan City Mo family is not as good as the Casting Hall in casting, it is not something that a child like you can challenge casually. I think it is not strange that your level is not enough. "
When people around saw the two people arguing, they all focused their attention on them. After all, it is the nature of most people to like to watch the fun.
When they heard the title of the Mo family of Wugan City, they all showed surprised expressions. The group of registered contestants standing in front of the two of them looked at the fat man with vigilance.
Ye Li was stunned for a moment, and began to search the name of the Mo family of Wugan City in his mind. Soon he recalled the information about this family.
This is also a very legendary family. Although it is only of the fourth rank which is not too high, their rise is talked about by many people.
This family once produced extraordinary talents in business, alchemy, weapon forging, and spiritual practice, and the four of them were brothers.
The existence of these four people caused their small family, which was originally only of the seventh rank, to suddenly begin to develop rapidly.
In just less than fifty years, this seventh-rank family was promoted three levels to become a fourth-rank family, which undoubtedly became an idol worshipped by all the small families.
Every family of the lower third rank aspires to rise as fast as the Mo family. Even Ye Wujiu once expressed such envy.
