"Everyone, be quiet!"
With Qingye's shout, the square finally became quiet inside and outside, "Now, please take out the jade plates and 'light stones' from your respective drawers!"
Many weapon refiners acted immediately, opened the drawers and took out the white jade plate and a white gem the size of a fist.
Suddenly, a brilliant white light shone on each iron table.
Many weapon refiners were secretly relieved, but there were also many weapon refiners who were secretly complaining. Indeed, this "light stone" is indeed not a low-level gemstone that is particularly difficult to melt, but that was only when there was enough time, and now, it is only half an hour.
"Everyone, please be prepared!"
Qingye's tone was slightly raised, and after a slight pause, a clear and sweet voice like the cry of an oriole resounded throughout the square, "The first level of the 'Instrument Refining Competition', now... begins!"
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, the huge hourglass under the high platform turned over.
"rustle!"
The loud sound of falling sand filled the void.
Qingye walked back to his seat with a smile on his face, and in front of thousands of iron tables, almost all the weapon refiners quickly grabbed the "Light Stone" and closed it between their palms.
Around the square, everyone was whispering, but inside the arena, the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Huh! Huh..."
Amidst the soft chirping sound that was almost inaudible, bright red fire lights lit up in front of dozens of iron tables. They actually activated the real fire in a very short period of time and manifested it outside.
Tang Huan also held the gem with both hands, but he did not activate the real fire immediately. Instead, he turned his eyes and scanned the surroundings quickly.
"It's really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!"
Seeing those balls of flames, Tang Huan couldn't help but secretly praise him. He thought that he had activated the real fire and manifested it quickly enough, but he didn't expect that there were so many people who were not much slower than him. If Tang Huan hadn't guessed, If I'm wrong, there may be some mid-level weapon refiners among these people.
In just a moment, dozens more iron tables lit up with flames.
"Um?"
Tang Huan was about to retract his gaze, but suddenly he felt something in his heart and immediately looked to the left.
There was a young man in rich clothes looking at him dozens of meters away. He probably had the same idea as him, to observe the strength of his competitors first.
That guy hasn't even picked up the "Light Stone" yet.
When Tang Huan looked at him, the young man's brows were raised slightly and his eyes showed a provocative look. Then he proudly turned his head forward and held the "Light Stone" in both hands.
"call!"
After a moment, a small ball of flame ignited in his palm, but it immediately formed a prairie fire and expanded into a ball as big as a washbasin.
At this time, the flames manifested by many of the surrounding weapon refiners were only the size of a bowl of ocean, but the man in gorgeous clothes was several times larger than them. It was impossible for everyone around the square to miss such a striking picture. The next moment, the sounds of exclamation echoed one after another.
"The flame is so strong, he can't be an intermediate weapon refiner, right?"
"You don't know where that person came from?"
"Becoming an intermediate weapon refiner before the age of twenty, your future is really unlimited."
“…”
The young man seemed to be aware of the movement around him, and his face became bright.
But at that moment, a few meters behind the man, there seemed to be a sneer.
"call!"
On the iron table, the flame the size of a sea bowl quickly expanded to the size of a washbasin, and was no less impressive than the young man's flame.
The young man looked back, his face changed slightly, his lips moved slightly, as if he was cursing.
Tang Huan also looked over subconsciously, only to find that the owner of the flame was actually a tall, graceful woman in a yellow dress.
The woman looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. She had beautiful features, a beautiful face, extremely fair skin, long hair as bright as fire, and a faint blue pupils. This appearance was similar to what Tang Huan had seen in his previous life. Some Westerners have some similarities.
When she looked at the young man in front of her, there seemed to be a hint of sarcasm in her eyebrows.
Tang Huan glanced again and found that it was not just the young man and the woman in the yellow skirt who had strong flames, but there were several more huge flames. The owner of one of the flames was a petite, baby-faced girl, probably only fourteen or fifteen years old.
"It's time for me to start too!"
Tang Huan took a breath and calmed his mind. In the blink of an eye, within the Dantian, the "Nine Sun Divine Furnace" and the spiritual wheel began to rotate at the same time. The blazing heat shuttled through the spiritual veins with the true energy. Soon it reached the palms of both hands, turned into flames, and gradually enveloped Tang Huan's palms.
When it almost expanded to the size of an ocean bowl, the flames stopped growing.
This time, Tang Huan did not steal the show like he did two months ago when he participated in the assessment of low-level weapon refiners in Shenbing Pavilion. After all, as long as you pass the first level, you can get a low-level weapon. It is impossible for Shenbing Pavilion to reward someone with two more weapons just because they perform better.
Acting low-key can also catch those powerful competitors off guard at the critical moment later.
The flame in the palm of the richly dressed young man in the distance was fierce, and the gem juice was dripping down continuously. After a moment, he couldn't help but glance back again, his face instantly became even more ugly, and then he glanced in the direction of Tang Huan, and his expression improved a lot.
"Huh?"
On the high platform, Qingye's eyes slowly swept across the group of weapon refiners.
After a moment, Qingye's eyes paused slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes: "Why is this kid's performance not as good as two months ago?" But then, her face showed a trace of surprise. With a smile, he murmured in a low voice, "What a naughty little guy, he actually knows how to hide his clumsiness."
"Zangzhuo?"
Mu Kui chuckled and lowered his voice and said, "On the surface, he looks clumsy, but if you look closely, you will find that his flames are several times purer than two months ago." At the end of the sentence, , Mu Kui’s eyes already revealed a look of surprise that was difficult to conceal.
"oh?"
Qingye opened his beautiful eyes wide, and after a moment, he took a breath involuntarily and exclaimed, "It's really like this. How did this guy do it?"
If you want to make the flame pure, you must first purify the fire.
But the fire of the weapon refiner is already quite pure, and it is very difficult to make it any purer, let alone several times more pure. Moreover, the opponent is only a low-level weapon refiner, so it is even more difficult to do it. It's like compressing a bowl-sized ball of dough into the size of a duck egg.
"Master Qingye Pavilion, Brother Mu Kui, which weapon refiner are you talking about?" The old man next to him couldn't help but ask. He was Hai Kun, the owner of Xinghai Weapons Store.
"The shop owner will know about it later." Qingye suppressed the shock in his heart and kept it secret.
“…”
"Master Gu Yi, Master Wu Xin, how is my little niece doing?"
A tall, strong man in armor suddenly raised his hand and pointed at a pretty little girl in the crowd below, and said with a charming smile.
"At such a young age, the real fire is already so strong. It's very good. Well, he should be an intermediate weapon refiner, right?" Gu Yi gently stroked his long beard and smiled.
"With the little princess's strength, it is more than enough to pass the third level." Wu Xin also smiled.
"What's the third level? This little girl is here to be the leader of the 'Weapon Refining Competition'." The strong man in armor laughed loudly.
"In this 'Weapon Refining Competition', not only the eldest princess of the Moyun Empire, but also the second prince of the Shalom Empire, as well as the little princess of our Tang Empire, such a grand event will be difficult to repeat in the next few decades. Yes." Next to the strong man, another old man wearing armor also laughed loudly.
"Not bad." Gu Yi narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Let's see who can win the 'Weapon Refining Competition' this time!"
"It goes without saying that she must be the precious little princess of our Tang Empire, haha." The strong man smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into two small slits.
“…”
Gu Yi and Wu Xin looked at each other and smiled noncommittally. If the low-level weapon refiner who forged the spear was not here, the little princess of the Tang Dynasty might still be able to win the title. If that person was here, her hope would be slim. , I don’t know which one of the thousands of people below that little guy is
