The team leader's attitude was not good; he seemed very anxious.
"It won't work? How could that be? What should we do now?" Tang Cheng was also a little anxious.
"Why don't you give it a try, senior brother?"
"I tried, but it didn't work." The man looked utterly defeated.
He hadn't expected that he wouldn't be able to summon his strange fire.
The mark was still there; he was still the master of the strange fire. He could feel the strange fire within his body, but he just couldn't summon it and couldn't use it at all.
As everyone knows, ordinary flames cannot be used for refining weapons. Let alone refining weapons, it can't even do the simplest tasks like melting ores and removing impurities.
The group was in a panic, but for a moment they couldn't come up with a solution.
"Southern Academy, is the person you left behind still going to participate?" The Cloud Cauldron Sect teacher sitting at the very top of the stage looked over.
The time had come, but he didn't call "start," clearly to give the people from the South Courtyard some face.
When the team leader was called upon, he was momentarily at a loss for words. Under the pressure of the other party, he could only say, "Let's compete."
After saying that, he subconsciously pushed the person next to him.
The senior student from the South Courtyard, pushed forward, was sweating profusely with anxiety.
You should know that he can't summon any different fire, and he's not a fire-type, so ordinary flames are completely useless against materials like ores.
Even if he went up, he would only be able to sit there doing nothing. The thought of that scene made him even less willing to go up.
But what could he do now? He could only resign himself to his fate and step forward, his mind constantly summoning the strange fire he had contracted.
Before he could even step onto the steps, someone grabbed him.
He quickly turned around and met a pair of beautiful eyes, full of determination.
"I'll go in your place."
After saying that, he jumped directly onto the platform.
The senior from the South Campus paused, then stopped and did not go any further.
"Gege..." Tang Cheng murmured, covering her mouth.
The substitution happened in an instant; the team leader hadn't even had time to react.
However, Lin Jingge had already gone up, and it was too late to stop her.
The team leader looked a little strange, but ultimately said nothing and silently returned to the audience.
The senior student from the South Courtyard subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Watching Lin Jingge on the stage go to his seat and sit cross-legged, for some reason, the heavy weight that had been hanging over his heart suddenly lifted.
"Hey, what level is she at in weapon crafting?" he asked Tang Cheng, who had been watching the stage.
Tang Cheng glanced at the other person, her expression complicated, and shook her head: "I don't know."
The senior student from the South Campus, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, immediately tensed up again.
"I don't know?!" he exclaimed in surprise.
"Then how come she was so confident in going up there?" The senior from the South Academy had a strange expression on his face.
Tang Cheng immediately disliked that tone.
"What do you mean?!" Tang Cheng said angrily, "You're the one who messed up, and Gege kindly made up for it for you! If it weren't for you, she wouldn't have had to go up there!"
The senior student from the South Campus realized that his words were inappropriate, but when his junior sister from the same campus pointed her finger at him and accused him, he could only bite the bullet and say, "I didn't ask her for help."
Tang Cheng was furious at what the other person said, her almond-shaped eyes wide open.
——
On stage, Lin Jingge had already taken out the Little Blue Flame.
The little blue flame hadn't been out for a long time, and it was incredibly excited to see the light of day again. Even without wind, the blue flames kept swaying.
This conveys to Lin Jingge the desire for spirit stones.
Lin Jingge had placed an ore and a jade slip in this spot.
The jade slip contains the requirements and related functions of the finished product from this crafting process.
With everything finalized, the competition now boils down to the quality of the final product.
Refining weapons is different from other crafting methods; it requires far more time and effort. Therefore, the competition lasted until the very last day of the tournament, and all the materials had already been partially processed.
After reading the requirements on the jade slip, Lin Jingge immediately got into the zone.
After rummaging through the surrounding ores, he found the most difficult one to refine and began refining it using the little blue flame.
She was positioned at the very front, closest to the Yun Ding Sect's teacher.
What she didn't see was the surprised and uncertain look in the eyes of several Yunxiao Sect disciples behind her.
However, even if she saw it, she didn't feel anything.
Everyone summoned flames and began the refining process.
Just as the senior brother from the South Academy had thought.
In this setting, a strange fire can certainly be used to show off.
"It's a strange, raging flame!"
Behind Lin Jingge, gasps of surprise rang out.
Even the Cloud Cauldron Sect teacher sitting at the very top was startled and stood up.
Startled by the noise, Lin Jingge became interested and turned around to look.
He then saw a large red flame leaping in front of the man behind him, who was wearing the uniform of the Cloud Soaring Sect.
The flames were extremely hot, suppressing the momentum of other flames around them.
The flames of the others looked somewhat weak.
The male disciple of the Cloud Soaring Sect raised his head slightly, and upon hearing the shocked gasps around him, his eyes were filled with smugness.
"Isn't this strange fire in the hands of the Grand Elder of the Cloud Soaring Sect?!"
In the audience, the teacher leading the South Campus stared intently at the bright red flame and muttered something to himself.
Something flashed through my mind, but I couldn't quite grasp it.
"It's over." The senior brother from the South Academy, who couldn't summon the strange fire within his body, also spoke up.
The strange fire in his hand was passed down from his family, and it could rival this raging strange fire. But right now, he couldn't summon it at all.
On the stage, none of the students from the Southern Academy possessed any extraordinary flames.
Even the disciples of the Cloud Cauldron Sect did not possess a level of power in their strange fire that the person from the Cloud Soaring Sect had.
Once that blazing flame appeared, almost all the flames on the competition stage were suppressed.
It's already obvious who will take first place.
Tang Cheng's face was also very serious at this moment.
Different flames are inherently mutually devouring, and this raging flame looks so powerful that it almost extinguished the other flames.
"Quiet!" The Yun Ding Sect teacher maintained order on the competition stage.
The crowd, who were still in shock and amazement, quickly sat back down after being yelled at, not daring to say anything more.
Instead, he looked at the trembling flame in front of him and felt worried.
What's the difference between a flame suppressed by a raging, strange fire and an ordinary flame? Forget about refining weapons, it can't even do the most basic thing like removing impurities.
On the competition stage, apart from the smug Yunxiao Sect disciples, everyone else looked gloomy, as if they were destined to lose this time.
This was the first time Lin Jingge had encountered such a powerful strange fire. Seeing the small blue fire rapidly shrinking in front of her, she sneered inwardly.
The little blue flame trembled under Lin Jingge's cold gaze.
Little Blue Flame thought to itself: This woman is even more terrifying than that raging flame!
A handful of spirit stones were thrown from Lin Jin's hand.
