Ye Zifeng grinned: "It's easy to get the top three. After the Pill Fighting Contest is over, the refined pills will be auctioned. I want you guys to chip in the money and get my The elixir was auctioned at the highest price!"
Liang Jiu and the others stared at Ye Zifeng, stunned for a while, then looked at each other, and all of them burst out laughing.
"Little brother, your idea is good, but do you know where this is? This is not a place like your Leizhou City where alchemists are scarce. The price of pills here is more than three times cheaper than Leizhou City!"
"Hehe... Forget about Brother Nine, don't talk to him, as if he can really enter the top three. The top alchemists from the five cities gather here, how can a newcomer like him be able to influence the results? ?!"
Ye Zifeng smiled faintly: "What's the matter, do you want to bet?"
"Bet, of course! If you lose, the big deal is to buy your elixir at the price of cabbage? Is there anything you can't bet on!"
Liang Jiu laughed wildly, and immediately made a decision. As the leading brother among these people, how could he be willing to be shorter than a young man like Ye Zifeng in terms of momentum.
"That's good, make a blood contract, we've made a deal!"
"Right now, whoever is afraid of whom! Little brother, I told you clearly, after losing, don't blame me for bullying you, you are the one who fell in!"
"Of course." Ye Zifeng's eyes were light, and an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
…
Under the guidance of the iron guards of Muyun Mansion, Ye Zifeng finally found Liu Bingqian and the others, and they had been waiting in the hall for a while.
"I'm not late, am I?" Ye Zifeng smiled lightly, scanned the surrounding situation, saw that it was still chaotic and noisy, and thought that there was still a certain amount of time before the official start of the Fighting Pill Competition.
Yang Jing sighed slightly: "Although it hasn't fully started, but you hear the comments from the people around you, almost laughing at Junior Sister, I can't comfort her anymore, why don't you come, Young Master Ye?"
Ye Zifeng showed an awkward smile, he was really not good at dealing with women, even though he had seen many big battles in his previous life, and met many women in various vanity fairs, but those were all fake and pretentious official There are almost a handful of people who have friendship in private.
"Miss Jing, you comfort her, and I comfort her, isn't it the same thing?"
Yang Jing glanced at him meaningfully, a helpless smile appeared in her beautiful eyes.
"Then... of course it's a little different. You should comfort her, lest it affect her state when she is going to make alchemy later."
"But... well."
Since it is a team of two people making alchemy, if there is a problem with the partner, it will inevitably affect the effect of alchemy when they are going to make alchemy. Since there was no way to shirk this matter, Ye Zifeng decided to take responsibility.
With this thought in mind, Ye Zifeng moved closer to Liu Bingqian, and smiled slightly: "Bingqian, are you afraid that you will be at the bottom when the alchemy competition is held?"
Liu Bingqian saw that it was Ye Zifeng who came, the gloomy eyes in her beautiful eyes suddenly brightened, and they returned to their original appearance.
"Brother rough man, to be honest, I participated in the Pill Fighting Competition a few times ago, and every time I became the laughing point of others after dinner, I am used to this, so I won't be too relieved. My master, Old Ghost Mu Yun, suggested that if I am still at the bottom this year, I may be disqualified from Leizhou City in the future... I can't bear such a big responsibility."
Ye Zifeng smiled lightly and comforted her: "Since it's a suggestion, it's still just a suggestion, and it hasn't been really implemented. Besides, have more confidence in yourself, this time I'm here, I won't let you be at the bottom. It was the promise I made with you before I came to participate in the Dou Dan competition."
Liu Bingqian froze for a moment, her complexion gradually improved, and she looked at Ye Zifeng again with some worry.
"However, if this is the case, will it put a lot of pressure on you..."
"Pressure?" A bright smile appeared on the corner of Ye Zifeng's mouth. He used to make alchemy for the big shots in the world. Sometimes, if he didn't make alchemy well, he might even be in danger of his life. The pressure is simply worlds apart.
"Don't worry, this little pressure is nothing to me."
Liu Bingqian's eyes suddenly lit up, and she smiled coquettishly: "Brother rough... I was too hypocritical just now, don't worry about it, I'm fine." She was already very happy to get Ye Zifeng's personal comfort , What matters about alchemy and Leizhou City's gains and losses, of course you have to stand back.
Ye Zifeng's expression changed slightly, and he gradually turned cold: "But having said that, who suggested to your master just now that Leizhou City should be disqualified from participating in the Fighting Alchemy Conference?"
Liu Bingqian hesitated, and pointed to a son of a noble family in the distance. The man was wearing a white plain brocade jacket with a blue lychee belt tied around his waist. He looked like a young master from a top family.
"No, he is the one who made the suggestion just now. He is the son of the lord of the Copper Fire City. He is extremely powerful. He was also the runner-up of the last alchemy competition. He is even more extraordinary in his hand."
Ye Zifeng sneered coldly: "No matter how high you are, it's just a mortal flame. Bingqian, let me introduce a few other groups of people, so that you know yourself and your enemy, it's good to increase your chances of winning a little bit."
Liu Bingqian originally wanted to reply him, you don't have a mortal flame, but she also understood that Ye Zifeng's strength, even without the help of the flame, was far stronger than a half-hearted alchemist like Song Shiyun.
"Okay, let me introduce you generally. There are five small cities around Tiandao City. Our Leizhou City is one of them. The other four are..."
Ye Zifeng replied lightly: "Lingfeng City, Copper Fire City, Qushui City and Desolate Earth City." Since each city contains an element, it is not too complicated to remember.
Liu Bingqian glanced at him with admiration: "That's right, in each of these four cities, the old ghost master Muyun selected the most powerful young alchemist in the locality to participate in the competition, and sent out invitation letters. The next Pill Fighting Contest."
Ye Zifeng grasped the key words, and said with a slight smile: "So, all the contestants are young alchemists?"
Although he had promised Liu Bingqian to participate in the Pill Fighting Competition before, he hadn't understood some of the basic rules of the competition, and now he was cramming, knowing as much as he could.
"Yes, those alchemists of the older generation will sit in the hall as judges to assess the results of alchemy. Generally speaking, it's like this..."
"Generally speaking?" Ye Zifeng was slightly surprised.
"Isn't it? The competition system is different every time. I don't know what it will be like this time. For the sake of fairness, the old ghost master didn't tell me in advance. He made it clear that he wanted me to come and make a fool of himself."
Liu Bingqian murmured and said, with a look of dissatisfaction in her eyes, feeling a little disappointed that she did not enjoy the privileges of an apprentice.
At this moment, a clear and sharp female voice suddenly came from the hall.
"Everyone, please be quiet."
The originally noisy human voice gradually became quiet because of this crisp voice, because almost everyone present knew that it was the voice of the old ghost Muyun. No matter what powerful character he was, the host's face was always to give.
Today, she is still wearing a plain white gown, but her long hair is coiled up, and a silver hairpin with a magnolia flower head is stuck in her temples. As for the chin, there was still the not-so-sticky beard, which made some people who saw the old ghost Mu Yun for the first time couldn't help covering their lips and chuckling.
The old ghost Muyun ignored the gazes of the people around him, and smiled loudly: "Everyone, the Pill Fighting Competition has always been a major event held in our Tiandao City. Today, it is our turn to host the Muyun Mansion. I am very honored, old ghost. It is my honor to invite so many alchemy masters. Now, let me explain what the rules of the alchemy competition are... "
When the rules of the Pill Fighting Competition were mentioned, the youth groups from different cities had different attitudes. Some listened with pricked ears, some were lazy and powerless, and some were indifferent.
Ye Zifeng pretended to be listening, however, the corner of his eyes kept moving back and forth on each contestant, observing their actions and behavior, and occasionally showing a smile.
On the other side, the old ghost Mu Yun smiled lightly and continued: "The Pill Fighting Contest is divided into two rounds, and one round consists of five entries and three rounds. I will give you a fixed alchemy test question, which is limited to one hour for the alchemy. Those who pass the time limit and those who smelt into slag will be eliminated directly, and if they all succeed in refining the elixir, the outstanding ones will be selected to advance to the next round."
She paused for a while, then smiled mysteriously: "As for the rules of the next round of the Triwizard Contest, I will explain it later... Do you have any questions about the first round?"
"No problem, let's get started."
"Yes, Mr. Old Ghost, we can't wait to advance to the next round of the competition. I, Hua Shao, will show you the top alchemy strength of Copper Fire City, and show it to everyone in Tiandao City." The boy in Chinese clothes Haha laughed, his expression was particularly arrogant.
Although he looks flamboyant on the surface, he is actually not a brainless and arrogant person in his heart.
This time the Alchemy Contest has come to a lot of prominent people from Tiandao City, just to find a powerful alchemist for the sect or family. If they get their attention and favor at this time, this young man in Chinese clothes may be able to ascend to the sky in one step and obtain permanent entry An opportunity to practice in Tiandao City.
The old ghost Mu Yun understood his thoughts and smiled knowingly: "Since there are no doubts... then the Fighting Pill Contest is officially...!"
"Wait a minute... Lord Old Ghost, I still have a question." Ye Zifeng's voice was especially calm, coming from the back row of the crowd, at the same time, he raised his hand high.
