After everyone stopped as required, Norris looked at the eight contestants and finally set his sights on Panshan Qingsong.
“From the results of the competition just now, it seems that the contestant from my Luo family is ahead of others in terms of casting speed.
Of course, the speed of casting cannot fully reflect the strength of the caster. The final result still depends on the quality of the talisman. "
Of course, Luo Lishi said this on purpose. After all, the man was a weaponsmith sent by his own company, so he certainly would not miss the opportunity to brag about him.
Ordinary people do not have a deep understanding of the art of casting. When they see that Panshan Qingsong has the fastest casting speed, they will more or less have the impression that the other party is stronger in casting.
It was precisely this point that Norris took advantage of, leaving a strong preconceived impression of the green pines on Panshan Mountain in the minds of the onlookers.
After that, Norris continued, "It seems that all the contestants have successfully completed the casting of the talismans. Next, we will let the three judges judge the talismans they have cast to see which one is better.
Let's start with contestant number one. Please hand over your forged talisman to the three judges."
After hearing what Norris said, contestant No. 1 nodded immediately and walked in front of the three judges holding the gourd-shaped talisman he had cast.
After the three judges took his talisman and carefully examined it, Yuan Bugui, whose face was pale and even his hair was yellow-white, spoke first: "Contestant No. 1 refined a gourd-shaped talisman.
The talisman contains the two attributes of wind and fire. The wind helps the fire, so it must be able to emit extremely strong fire power."
Following his words, the stout and bald Wang Yuezhi said, "But the material used for your rune seems to be a little inappropriate. It is not tightly combined with your runes, and many patterns that should have been fused together have split.
These forked patterns can only be wasted. They can neither form spiritual energy veins nor form origin runes or the subsequent spell patterns, so their power will be greatly reduced. "
After Wang Yuezhi finished speaking, Jin Tianya followed up and said, “Combining the advantages and disadvantages of this talisman, let me make a final summary.
The talisman cast by contestant No. 1 has a total of two sets of original talismans, one set is of wind attribute, and the other is of fire attribute.
Among them, the wind element has only seven origin symbols, while the fire element has eight origin symbols, so the rating is a mid-grade Xuan-level talisman.
After comprehensively considering the advantages and disadvantages of this talisman, we gave it a score of eight out of ten.
This means that this gourd-shaped talisman is an eight-point Xuan-level mid-grade talisman."
After the three judges finished evaluating the talisman of contestant No. 1, Luo Lishi also explained to the crowd around him: "Everyone, this evaluation method has been recognized by all weapon casters. There are also differences in the quality of talismans of the same level, and the difference between them is reflected in this score.
Although the talisman of contestant number one is only a mid-level Xuan-level talisman, it is still a good talisman at this level, so it received an eight-point evaluation. "
Ye Li, who was in the audience, naturally knew the scoring rules without Norris explaining them. He had noticed the hesitation on contestant number one's face from the very beginning.
It seems that this contestant chose a safer route. In order to make a talisman of good quality within three hours, he only chose the middle-grade Xuan-level talisman, and did not take the risk of making a high-grade Xuan-level talisman.
Next, the contestants from the six old shops walked up to the judges one by one and handed in their talismans for evaluation.
The strength among the six of them also fluctuated slightly. They had a total of four mid-grade Xuan-level talismans and two high-grade Xuan-level talismans.
However, a weaponsmith who casts a mid-grade Xuan-level talisman will no longer be qualified to compete for the championship after a high-grade Xuan-level talisman appears.
After all, if the other party uses the same amount of time and the talisman he makes is one small level higher than yours, then even if his score is not high enough among the talismans of the same level, he will definitely be better than yours.
The four weaponsmiths who chose the safe route all had more or less unwillingness on their faces. It was not that they could not make a top-grade Xuan-level talisman, but they were worried that they would not be able to make a top-grade Xuan-level talisman within the limited time, so they chose to make a mid-grade Xuan-level talisman.
Among the six people, the talisman made by contestant No. 5 was the best. His talisman was not only of the top-grade Xuan level, but also got a high score of seven points. The top-grade Xuan level talisman made by another caster only got five points.
At this time, contestant No. 5 had a smug smile on his face. He performed very well in this competition, even exceeding expectations.
He looked at Panshan Qingsong, who had finished casting the talisman first. The other party seemed to be much younger than him. He still had a chance in his heart, thinking that the other party might lack experience and cast the talisman quickly, but the quality of the talisman might not be better than his.
As for Niu Qianjin, he didn't take it too seriously. After all, he saw that the other party completed the casting at the last moment, so he thought that the other party's strength should not be too strong.
After everyone heard the score of contestant number six, Chuck Norris began to show excitement on his face.
"Everyone, we are now about to enter the evaluation of the last two contestants. If nothing goes wrong, the champion of this competition will be announced soon.
The six contestants just now were all weapon casters from old shops in Qishan Town, and the remaining two were weapon caster representatives from our and the Ye family’s newly opened shops.
I wonder which of you two would like to bring up the talisman you made first?"
The previous order was arranged according to everyone's numbers, but from now on, Norris suddenly disrupted this order.
Ye Huaicang snorted coldly after seeing this and said to Ye Li, "This guy is deliberately making small talk at this critical moment to completely separate the last two people from the first six.
After the previous inertia, everyone suddenly encountered the current changes, and their originally scattered attention would naturally be focused again immediately.
This way, whether they want to promote their own stores or attack us, they can achieve the best results. "
After hearing what Ye Huaicang said, Ye Li also understood that there was such a psychological factor involved.
After all, he still lacked experience in the arena, and he had not realized why Norris suddenly interrupted the smooth flow of the judging process. It turned out that he did this to highlight the last two contestants.
Looking at Luo Lishi's excited face, Ye Li couldn't help but sneer. All of the Luo family's methods were based on the assumption that their own strength was the strongest.
Now once that foundation is not established then their plan will actually have the exact opposite effect.
