Chapter 1447: The Great Competition
Bai Yaoshi actually took the initiative to invite Qin Tian to the imperial capital?
Everyone in the room was a little blind, and even a little unresponsive.
You must know that Bai Yaoshi is a well-known alchemy master in the imperial capital, and above the court of the Tianyuan Dynasty, the princes and nobles all have to respect her for three points.
Not to mention that it is in the Eastern Capital, it is the imperial capital, and there are countless noble sons and brothers who want to worship under the name of Bai Yaoshi.
Xiao Zhan and the others didn't expect that Bai Yaoshi would come to Daodong this time and would actually take a fancy to a young man who could cook.
After listening to Bai Yaoshi's words, Concubine Lixue was happy for Qin Tian on her face.
However, when she looked at Qin Tian, she saw that Qin Tian's face was unwavering, without any waves.
Bai Yaoshi also noticed Qin Tian's expression and said in surprise: "What, Qin Tian, I see you, don't you really want to go to the imperial capital with me?"
"Senior, I'm sorry, I'm only in the first grade now, and I really don't have any plans to go to the imperial capital before I officially graduate. Thank you for your kindness, Qin Tian is self-aware, with my current ability, even if I go to the imperial capital with you, pull out the seedlings to help grow, in terms of strength, I don't estimate that I will not improve much......"
Qin Tian was very calm when he spoke, but what he said made Bai Yaoshi's eyes light up.
"At your age, you can say something like that. Faced with the opportunity to worship my name, it was really surprising that I could make a judgment and refuse in such a short period of time. ”
Bai Yaoshi seemed to appreciate Qin Tian even more, "However, I am not strong, since you want to stay in the Eastern Capital, it is okay." Concubine, you take advantage of this time in the Eastern Capital to learn cooking skills from Qin Tian, and the next time you go back to the Imperial Capital, you haven't learned a few good dishes, don't come to me. ”
Bai Yaoshi smiled faintly at Concubine Lixue, and everyone also laughed, but everyone can also know from this little episode that this Bai Yaoshi is really not an ordinary foodie who likes to eat food.
"Ahem......"
Xiao Zhan thought for a while, coughed lightly, and said, "If Qin Tian is interested in joining the Eastern Capital City Guard, you are also welcome on my side." Of course, the City Guard is not a Chef Corps, and I need to know your strength before you join...... How?"
Xiao Zhan spoke, such an invitation made Qin Tian quite interested.
After all, the city guards have more power than the forbidden army, and it is easier to be promoted.
"Thank you, Lord Xiao, your city guards, the requirements are high, I'm afraid I'm ......"
"Hehe, aren't you the end of the first grade now? The big competition is about to be held, right? I might as well tell you in advance that the city guard army is recently preparing to select a group of people from the top ten students in the big competition in each grade to join the city guard training camp, and this has been specially approved by the city lord. ”
Xiao Zhan said lightly: "Now in front of the White Medicine Master and a few others, I, Xiao Zhan, can promise you that as long as you can enter the top ten in the big competition, the city guard training camp will reserve a place for you." ”
"Hehe, Xiao Dudu, you are doing this to recruit Qin Tian, and you have made a lot of money, hehe, the person that the White Medicine Master has taken a fancy to, if you can recruit your account, you have the ability. Hu Sanming said.
Qin Tian immediately got up, toasted Xiao Zhan with a glass of wine, and said, "The student must do his best, thank you Lord Xiao!"
……
After dinner, Qin Tian went back to Donghan Academy alone.
Tonight's dinner, to put it bluntly, Xiao Zhan and a few people asked Bai Yaoshi for medicinal herbs and pills, Bai Yaoshi came from the imperial capital, and he had a pivotal position in the Alchemist Association in the imperial capital, so as long as Bai Yaoshi opened his mouth, Xiao Zhan and the three of them could buy a large number of high-quality pills from the Alchemist Association.
And Qin Tian also knew in his heart that he was a supporting role tonight, a high-ranking figure like Xiao Zhan and Hu Sanming, and he wouldn't look at him on weekdays, but because Bai Yaoshi had sent him an invitation before, Xiao Zhan was just pushing the boat along the river, and by saying that he wanted to recruit Qin Tian, he would show favor to Bai Yaoshi and Concubine Lixue.
People are just using each other, and this time, Qin Tian was used.
He didn't mind, though, because he saw an opportunity to join the City Guard.
Once he enters the City Guard Army, then Qin Tian may officially join the Dongzhou Army, even if he starts as a small centurion, he is confident that he can be promoted, truly enter the officialdom of the Tianyuan Dynasty, and turn the Ice Emperor's court upside down!
"This time in a big competition, you must be in the top ten!"
Qin Tian set a goal for himself in his heart.
However, the next day, he got the good news - Fei Lixue sent him a pill.
Not only did she give Qin Tian the pill, but Concubine Lixue actually took the initiative to teach Qin Tian to refine the medicine!
"I said, you helped me, and I will help you too. ”
Fei Lixue taught Qin Tian the most basic methods and know-how of refining pills, and at the same time, she also taught Qin Tian how to refine pills through the fire of the five elements.
Through the fire refining medicine of the five elements, and assisting in the corresponding true qi, he can refine a panacea suitable for the true qi of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, which is quite useful to Qin Tian.
Five days later, the first-grade competition officially began.
The three ordinary classes in the first grade, plus the students in the Dragon and Tiger classes, are a total of 120 students.
One hundred and twenty students, after the disruption, all had to draw lots for a competition.
The rules of the competition are very simple, no killing, no poison, just divide the winner and loser.
Qin Tian calculated his own promotion path, if he wanted to enter the top ten, then Qin Tian had to break through from the top 128, enter the top 64, and then break through from the top 64 to the top 32, the top 16, and finally 16 into 8.
During the whole process, Qin Tian had to defeat at least four opponents before he had a chance.
This difficulty, after including the elite students of the Dragon and Tiger class, even if Qin Tian drew a good lot, it would be difficult to do.
The contestant in the first round of Qin Tian was a girl, a girl in the second class of the ordinary class, who was in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, and had just entered.
Qin Tian fought against her, and in less than three minutes, the battle was resolved, and this was still under Qin Tian's pity for the jade.
In the second round, Qin Tian faced a male student in the second round, and his cultivation was almost the same as the girls in the first round, and he did not pose any threat to Qin Tian.
Just when Qin Tian thought that he was lucky in the draw, the opponent in the third round made him frown - he was about to face Xie Jiwei of the Dragon and Tiger class.
Xie Jiwei of the Dragon and Tiger class, that is a famous son-in-law, especially his pair of iron fists, known as the invincible iron fists of the first grade, and his family is also an official of the Eastern Capital, and his personality is quite arrogant.
"Yo, I'm lucky, the first and second rounds are ordinary class students, and the third round is still an ordinary class student, this big competition, it's too boring, it's not challenging at all!"
When Xie Jiwei drew Qin Tian, this guy turned out to be in front of Qin Tian, and no one laughed at himself in his eyes.
