Xu Chen walked off the stage with a smile on his face, but the Yu family members were in a bad mood, including the Xiang family and the Bian family who were now on the side of the Yu family
.
Xiang Qiliang was going to represent the Xiang family in the next round of weapon competition. The unexpected events in this round made him a little worried: "Dad, this result won't affect our big event, right?"
Xiang's father frowned, then relaxed: "This should be something the Yu family should worry about. We just need to get a place from the Kang family in the weapon competition, and the Yu family, which belongs to the Xiang family, can't go back on their word." If
the Yu family wants to go back on their word, aren't they worried that they will vote for the Kang family? Although it is still unknown whether the Kang family can accept it, will the Yu family not be worried?
Xiang Qiliang calmed down and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I will definitely do my best later."
Xiang's father nodded with satisfaction. The Xiang family is also a family of weapon refiners. Although it is not as good as the Kang family, it is not to be underestimated. Xiang Qiliang's status in the Xiang family is equivalent to Yu Yike's in the Yu family, so he has great expectations for this son. No matter what, he will make a way for the Xiang family to succeed.
The Bian family is in the same situation, but they all think that this is something that the Yu family should worry about.
Soon the ranking results came out. With the Kang family watching, the Yu family could not make any changes to the rankings. Finally, the head of the Yu family came out to announce the results. The first place was naturally Yu Yike. Yu Yike himself did not show any surprise or joy, but was very calm, because his goal had already exceeded this competition.
When announcing the second place, the head of the Yu family paused, and then said leisurely: "Gu Zhuo, the alchemist of the Kang family."
Gu Zhuo is Gu Yao's pseudonym. Gu is the same as Gu, and Zhuo is taken from the name of his teacher in the previous life.
There were gasps and groans from the audience. Even Yu Yike was surprised. He turned around and asked his master, the Great Elder, and only then did he know about Gu Yao's performance in the competition. He looked up. This was the first time he took the contestants seriously. It turned out that there were still alchemists worthy of his attention. This was great!
"How is it possible? He must have cheated!" Yu Yibo's voice rang out very abruptly, and he stood up.
"Yibo, sit down!" Yu Lan did not let her son go this time, but scolded him coldly. Jumping out to question at this time would only bring humiliation to himself, and there would be no benefit at all. No matter how powerful the Yu family was, they could not cover the mouths of all the cultivators present.
"Mom..." Yu Yibo looked at his mother in disbelief.
"Shut up!" Yu Lan was still rude, so Yu Yibo had to sit down unwillingly, but he still stared at Gu Yao from the Kang family.
The Kang family was overjoyed. This result was beyond their expectations. Only the head of the Kang family and Kang Mingsong, who knew what was going on, calmed down. After all, an alchemist who could refine the top-grade silver ganoderma elixir couldn't have a bad performance. If he was given more time, it wouldn't be impossible for him to beat Yu Yike.
Of course, this was a great joy for the Kang family, and it could even boost the morale of the next two competitions.
The head of the Yu family continued to announce the following list. Unexpectedly or not, Xu Chen was also ranked seventh. He humbly said to Kang Mingsong: "I am honored to have served you well." If his white teeth were not too dazzling, this humble attitude might be more convincing.
Obviously, eight people from the Yu family won, and only two from the Kang family advanced. The rest of the alchemists were eliminated, but the Kang family was happier than the Yu family.
The head of the Kang family and the elders of the Kang family could not help but feel happy. These ten places were picked from the Yu family. How could they not be happy? However, they could not be careless in the next two rounds of competition. The Yu family and other family forces must have other means hidden.
After the first round of competition, the second round of weapon skills competition began immediately. The weapon refiners of the Kang family stepped on the stage with their heads held high one by one. The only brothers Gu Yao and the others could recognize were Kang Mingcheng and Kang Minghao. They were uncles because they had such a dazzling elder brother like Kang Mingsong in front. Although the younger brothers and sisters below were competitive, they were also more united. The goal was to work hard to look like their elder brother.
Qi.
Different from the Kang family's camp, the Yu family's camp is composed of multiple forces, but this camp must be stronger than the original alchemy camp of the Kang family. Guang Guyao and the others have heard that the Xiang family and the Bian family both have talents they focus on cultivating. In terms of talent, they are not inferior to the children of the Kang family.
Gu Yao and his team saw two or three weapon refiners who were not afraid of the Kang family's team and had a determined look in their eyes.
The monks in the audience were also quickly attracted by the two opposing teams. The result of the first match was beyond their expectations, and they were even more looking forward to the second round. They didn't know if there would be another unexpected situation.
"Let's not talk about the others. Before the competition, Xiang Qiliang from the Xiang family and Bian Yongyan from the Bian family had the best chances. Not only could they be in the top ten, they would even be in the top five."
"Yeah, I heard that too. If they were in the Kang family, with the resources of the Kang family, they would now be the best weapon refiners among their peers. That's why the Xiang and Bian families are trying so hard to seize the opportunity to enter the secret realm, hoping that the opportunities in the secret realm can bring their two families to a new level."
"Not only the two of them, but also the other weapon refiners from the Xiang and Bian families, plus the people recruited by the other families. The Kang family is really in suspense this round. I wonder if they can keep half of their places."
"Fortunately, the two new alchemists won ten places for them in the previous competition, otherwise this situation would be too tragic."
These discussions could not escape the ears of Gu Yao and his friends. It must be said that if they had not appeared, the situation of the Kang family would indeed be more difficult. I don't know how many places would be taken away by the Yu family and other forces. Even if there are only 20 or 30 fewer people, it cannot be underestimated. After entering the secret realm, the opponents will definitely unite to suppress the Kang family. In the end, not to mention how much the Kang family can gain, even how many people can
walk out alive are unpredictable.
Soon, the stage was filled with flames, and the atmosphere was even more heated than the alchemy competition just now, because Tian Feirong also chose the path of refining instruments. Gu Yao and others, who often came into contact with him and watched him many times, were not completely ignorant of refining instruments, so they watched with great interest at this moment.
Unlike the alchemists, everything was done in the alchemy furnace. However, due to the different inheritance of the sects, the techniques of the instrument masters were divided into several factions. Some, like the alchemists, operated directly in the instrument cauldron, while others used the forging method, moving the forging table to the table, the fire was burning, and the clanging sound of hammering the instrument embryo was endless. It can be seen that the forging method is not exclusive to the spiritual world's body refiners, which makes people dazzled.
As far as I can remember, Tian Feirong had visited many famous forgers and asked them for advice on how to forge tools. When they left the spirit world, Tian Feirong's tool-making skills were already well-known throughout the spirit world. He combined the strengths of both schools and walked out of his own path.
If Tian Feirong came to the fairy world, he would definitely be very interested in the tool-making methods here. His path was actually similar to the tool-making methods of the fairy world.
The clanging sounds of the hammers were very melodious. Every time the iron hammer fell, black impurities could be seen being hammered out.
Most of the weapon masters of the Kang family followed this path. According to the discussion of the monks below, the cultivation method of the Kang family was related to the way of weapon forging. Every weapon forging was actually equivalent to a practice. Practice and weapon forging were complementary to each other, and this also made most of the weapon masters of the Kang family very strong in close combat, as can be seen from their control of strength and the use of immortal energy.
In other words, compared with the Yu family, the Kang family's combat power was much stronger. This was also the reason why the Kang family ancestor rushed to the front line when the star beasts rioted. However, he did not expect that the star beasts were stronger that time, which exceeded the Kang family ancestor's tolerance. Even so, the Kang family ancestor also killed the strongest star beasts that led the way, greatly alleviating the crisis facing Yu Kangcheng.
Kang Minghao usually looked irritable, but when he was forging weapons on the stage, he quickly entered the state and seemed very calm, like a different person from usual.
"The two geniuses from the Xiang family and the Bian family are indeed very strong. The other one is a casual weapon maker that the Yu family found from somewhere, and his level is not low either. Fortunately, the people from the Kang family who came on stage also performed well, otherwise the title of the first weapon refining family in Yu Kang City would be unworthy of the name." Xu Chen lowered his voice and gossiped with Gu Yao.
Kang Mingsong moved his mouth and his voice reached the ears of the three people: "Thanks to the Silver Ganoderma Pill and other elixirs, Kang Mingfeng and Mingcheng have become much stronger and more comfortable in the process of refining the weapon. I think they performed very well this time."
Kang Mingfeng is another brother of the same generation, and his strength is comparable to Yu Yike.
"As you know, when the Yu family was preparing to suppress our Kang family, many elixirs were banned from sale to our Kang family, especially the elixirs that increase cultivation, which are even rarer from their Yu family. This time, we are really indebted to the two alchemists."
In addition to the Silver Ganoderma Pill, Gu Yao and his friends also exchanged some other elixirs for the Kang family, which greatly relieved the pressure on the Kang family.
This is also where the Yu family has the upper hand. Immortal weapons are not items that need to be replaced frequently for cultivators. As long as an immortal weapon is not seriously damaged, it can be used for hundreds or even thousands of years, because the longer it is nurtured, the more it can be used by cultivators. However, immortal pills are different. Immortal pills are a necessary consumable. Once someone strangles your lifeline, you will be controlled by others.
The Yu family also discovered that the cultivation of these Kang family children who came on stage, including the weapon masters attached to the Kang family, has increased a lot compared to usual. In connection with the level of alchemy skills displayed by Gu Yao in the competition, it is easy to deduce the reason for the increase.
Originally they planned to take half of the quota, but now it seems that this is not possible. In addition, with the ten quotas that Gu Yao and Xu Chen have won, if they don't perform well in the next round, then the Kang family will not suffer much loss from their plan against them. On the contrary, the Yu family will pay a heavy price to win over those forces to their side.
Is their hard work going to be in vain?
