Chapter 624: Top 10 Candidates
Time flies, and two days pass in the blink of an eye. Today is www.biquge.info day when the Alchemist Contest officially begins.
The commotion caused by Ye Tianchen before, because of the Alchemist Competition, temporarily subsided, and everyone's attention shifted to the Alchemist Competition.
At this moment, the royal city of Qianyin County is very lively, and all places are full of people, which can be said to be the most lively day since the founding of the country!
After all, the Alchemist Contest is held once every fifty years, and it is held by the Alchemist Guilds of the three states of the Eastern Regions, and the Alchemist Guilds of each of the high-ranking counties take turns.
Therefore, this is the first time that the Qianyin County Kingdom was founded and was in charge of the Alchemist Competition.
Although almost everyone in the royal city wanted to watch the alchemist competition with their own eyes, not all of them could get their wish, because there were too many people in the city.
Even though the venue for the competition is a huge square that can accommodate millions of people, it still can't let all the people in.
The plaza is circled around and has countless seats for those who watch the competition. On the other side of the auditorium, there is a lavishly decorated seat reserved for people of extraordinary status.
"Brother, there are so many people here, are they all going to watch the Alchemist Competition?" Ye Chuxin opened his small mouth and looked around, looking very surprised.
Ye Tianchen nodded lightly and said, "Yes." ”
Yu Xuefei on the side also smiled: "Actually, it's not just these people, there are more audiences outside the square." Although they can't see the contest directly, some people will use secret methods to create a water curtain image that allows them to see the scene of the contest. ”
After Ye Chuxin heard this, his small mouth opened even wider, he thought that he had not only never seen such a scale of competition, but had never even heard of it.
In addition to being surprised, he was also very excited in his heart, because he knew that Ye Tianchen would participate in the competition under the gaze of everyone.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tianchen and Yu Xuefei came to the exclusive area for the contestants, and Ye Chuxin was taken away by President Zhou to take care of them.
Everyone in the contestant's exclusive area was wearing alchemist robes, and at least ninety percent of them were all proud.
"There weren't as many contestants as I thought. ”
After Ye Tianchen saw the people in this area, he said lightly: "Originally, I thought that the competition, which is only held once in fifty years, would have at least tens of thousands of people participating, but it turned out that there were only a few thousand. ”
Although the number of alchemists is scarce, this kind of competition, which is spread throughout the entire Eastern Regions and is enough to make a blockbuster, should make all qualified alchemists rush to it.
That's why he thinks that only a few thousand people are too little.
"Strictly speaking, there are tens of thousands of participants. Yu Xuefei said with a smile: "However, most of the contestants have been eliminated in the initial test of the competition, and the contestants who can be here at present are all alchemists who have passed the first test of the competition and are quite good alchemists." ”
"First attempt?"
Ye Tianchen asked suspiciously: "Why don't I know that there is a preliminary exam, don't I need to participate?"
"The token that President Zhou gave you is a proof of passing the preliminary examination. Yu Xuefei smiled slightly: "Didn't President Zhou tell you?"
"Nope. Ye Tianchen shook his head, and then asked, "Why can President Zhou let me advance directly?"
Yu Xuefei explained with a smile: "Only a seventh-order high-level alchemist in the Eastern Regions, or a higher-level alchemist, can have a promotion quota, which can make people not have to participate in the preliminary examination. The place of my master was given to me. ”
"I see. Ye Tianchen's face was stunned, and then he smiled: "It seems that I have to find a time, thank you President Zhou." ”
Although it doesn't make much difference to him whether he advances directly or not, it is definitely a good thing to save him the trouble of taking the preliminary examination.
Suddenly, a tall, thin and handsome young man appeared, and said to Yu Xuefei with a smile on his face: "Xuefei, we are really fated to meet here." ”
Yu Xuefei frowned slightly, and said, "Wang Fengtao, I have said many times, don't call me that." Besides, all the people who participated in the contest were gathered here, so I don't think it had anything to do with fate. ”
Wang Fengtao's old face turned red, and when he was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed, because he found Ye Tianchen on the side.
"Why are you here, do you also want to participate in the Alchemist Competition?!" Wang Fengtao asked with a surprised expression.
Ye Tianchen said indifferently: "Your question is really stupid, if I don't participate in the competition, I can appear in this area?"
Wang Fengtao was slightly stunned, he actually knew that only the participants of the Alchemist Competition could come to this area.
But what he didn't expect was that he would meet Ye Tianchen here......
After all, the entire Eastern Regions knew that Ye Tianchen was a martial arts genius, and even known as the first heavenly pride in the Eastern Regions, but not many people knew that Ye Tianchen was also a medicine refining genius.
However, when he remembered that Ye Tianchen had defeated him in the Medicine Refining Hall with his superb fire control ability, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
"In this Alchemist Competition, I will definitely defeat you!" Wang Fengtao said with a confident expression.
Although he lost to Ye Tianchen in controlling the fire, he felt very frustrated and desperate.
But when he went back and thought about it, he thought that he was just not as good as Ye Tianchen in controlling fire, and it didn't mean that he would lose to Ye Tianchen in the overall refining of medicine.
"You don't have that chance. Ye Tianchen looked indifferent and did not regard Wang Fengtao as an opponent.
Wang Fengtao snorted coldly: "Boy, don't think that you can be so arrogant if you win over me by controlling the fire." When the tournament starts, you'll understand that only strong fire control doesn't mean anything at all!"
"You talk a lot of nonsense. Ye Tianchen said indifferently: "If I remember correctly, I will compete with you to control fire before, because fire control is what you are best at, right?"
"This ......" Wang Fengtao was speechless for a moment, when he competed with Ye Tianchen, he did tell Ye Tianchen that what he was best at was fire control.
Yu Xuefei on the side smiled: "If I were you, I wouldn't be embarrassed here." ”
"Remember me, I will defeat you!" Wang Fengtao glared at Ye Tianchen, and then shook his sleeves and left, he knew that if he continued to stay here, he would only bring humiliation on himself.
After Yu Xuefei saw Wang Fengtao leaving, she whispered to Ye Tianchen: "Although that guy is very annoying, his alchemy ability is very good, and he is one of the top ten candidates for the championship this time. ”
"Top 10 Candidates?" Ye Tianchen asked with some curiosity: "How many places does Wang Fengtao rank among them, and who else are the others?"
Wang Fengtao happened to be ranked tenth. Yu Xuefei said slowly: "As for the other nine people, they are ......"
She carefully explained the names of the top ten champions, as well as their refining medicine levels and areas of expertise, all in one breath.
ps: Today's first shift will be served first, and there will be more later, tonight is a sleepless night.
