Mu Zihong looked at Ming Lao's grandson and said, "Ming Lao is afraid that he doesn't know him, right?"

Ming Lao asked, "What do you say?"

Mu Zihong looked at the young man's skillful technique and said, "He has already entered the ground-level refiner, and his talent is not so bad. ”

Ming Lao exclaimed: "Is this true? But no one taught him, how did he advance?"

Mu Zihong said: "I don't know, wait for his works." ”

As soon as the two of them calmed down, they heard something interesting.

"Third Elder, that young man is your grandson, it seems that he is the first one this time. An old man on the side looked at Chao Yuan and said.

"It's too early to say that the results are not out yet, but my grandson's refining talent is really few of them can compare. An old man said.

Mu Zihong felt that this three elders was really interesting, listening to the first sentence seemed to be modest, and the latter sentence seemed to praise Chao Yuan, the meaning was self-evident.

"Brother Shuo, what do you think of that young man?" Blueprint suddenly said to the Great Elder.

Mu Zihong looked at the blueprint and found that it was Guo Ling, and said secretly: This time it's interesting.

The Great Elder smiled and said, "That's good, Brother Blueprint won't be the heart of a disciple, right?"

Blueprint said, "Look at it. ”

Little by little, time passed.

Chao Yuan suddenly said, "It's finally refined." "Shake the sword in your hand.

"Congratulations to the Third Elder. The old man congratulated the three elders.

The Third Elder nodded proudly.

At the same time that Chao Yuan was completed, Guo Ling was also completed, and then several more people completed it.

Not long after, the old man stepped forward and said, "When the time comes, if you don't have any works, please quit automatically." ”

After some people retreated, the old man said: "There are still ten people left, and the shortest time is No. 7 Chao Yuan and No. 9 Guo Ling, both of whom completed at the same time, followed by No. 13 Yan Bin, and then No. 5 Xu Yulian." ”

Mu Zihong only noticed now that one of the ten people was a woman, and it was Xu Yulian.

The white old man looked back at the refiner on the stage and said, "Please ask the refiner to come down and judge." ”

Everyone got up and stepped down, and Mu Zihong also followed.

After everyone looked at it, they discussed with each other, and then the old man said: "Guo Ling is refining a ground-level superb knife, with ingenious design, suitable material selection, strong toughness, and sharpness, which is not easy. ”

"Chao Yuan is refining a ground-level superb sword, this sword is sharp, the sword is small, the sound of the sword is small, and the design is good. ”

"Yan Bin refines a ground-level top-grade sword, and Xu Yulian's is also a ground-level top-grade sword. ”

......

"Gao Qing refines a ground-level mid-grade sword, and Ming Xingzhong refines a ground-level low-grade gun. ”

When Ming Lao heard this, a trace of excitement leaked from his face.

At this time, a few old men communicated on the side: "I thought there would be any good seedlings, but some people still didn't come, it seems that they want to soar to the sky in the big competition." ”

Hearing this, an old man beside the third elder said: "I think Chao Yuan is good, but it's a pity that Brother Chao personally teaches, otherwise the old man will definitely accept him as an apprentice." ”

The third elder said, "Thank you, Brother Lin, if Yuan'er is willing, the old man will naturally be happy." ”

The old man said happily: "Really?"

The Third Elder said, "Naturally, it's true. ”

The old man said, "Then let's see the child's choice." ”

At this time, the old man said, "Please Blue Sky Master announce the final result." ”

Everyone quieted down, and Blueprint stepped forward and said, "This time it should be my brother, but my brother can't leave because of something temporary, so I came on his behalf." ”

Turning to look at the refiner behind him, he said: "You have already seen the works of these children, and you should know it in your heart, so I will directly announce that you have won the top three places: first place, Guo Ling, second place, Chao Yuan, and third place, Yan Bin." If anyone has any objections, they can raise them. ”

All the refiners were silent, the blueprint was fair, the refiners were good, and no one among the refiners present dared to question him.

But at this moment, an unexpected voice appeared.

"I want to know, why Guo Ling is better than me?" Chao Yuan questioned.

The three elders were busy giving Chao Yuan a look, but it was too late, Chao Yuan's words had already been exported, the Refiner Guild and the Refiner Chamber of Commerce were originally one, and the three elders felt that Chao Yuan was a little embarrassed to be like this.

Blueprint said: "Although you use the same time and have the same grade, Guo Ling's refining is better than yours, so he is ahead of you." ”

Chao Yuan realized that he had made a mistake when he was seen by the three elders, and now he didn't dare to answer.

Seeing that no one questioned it anymore, the blueprint was returned, and Hua Bai Lao stepped forward and said: "Now is the apprenticeship link, the top three can choose a master, but it depends on your luck, if you are rejected, you can only wait for other refiners to take a fancy to you." ”

"You can also wait for the refiner to choose, if you think it is suitable, you can agree, this is undoubtedly the best way. ”

Chao Yuan said: "I give up my choice, I am willing to wait." ”

"Me too. Yan Bin said.

Now everyone looked at Guo Ling, but Guo Ling didn't speak, quietly walked up to the Great Elder, bowed down and said, "Master." ”

The Great Elder was relieved, "Well, that's good. ”

People who didn't know were stunned, thinking that Guo Ling's apprenticeship was successful, and seeing this, Chao Yuan and Yan Bin regretted it a little.

The old man said, "Now it's the master who chooses the disciples. ”

Ming Lao walked up to Xu Yulian and said, "I wonder if you have a master?"

Xu Yulian said: "No, I learned refining with the help of my family, and I don't have a master yet. ”

Ming Lao said: "I want to take you as an apprentice, I don't know if you are willing?"

"Lian'er, come and see Master!" a middle-aged man walked up from the audience and said to Xu Yulian excitedly.

Xu Yulian hurriedly said: "The apprentice visits the master." ”

Ming Lao helped her up and said, "Okay, from today on, you are my first disciple." ”

At this time, Mu Zihong suddenly heard someone calling Gao Qing.

"In vain, we have made great progress, keep up the good work. An old man walked up to Gao Qing and said in appreciation.

Gao Qing said, "Yes, thank you, Master. ”

Then, Yan Bin was also taken in as an apprentice by a refiner.

"Chao Yuan, I want to take you as an apprentice, I don't know if you want to. The old man who had just told the three elders that he wanted to take Chao Yuan as an apprentice said.

Chao Yuan saw that no one took the initiative to accept him, and now that one came, he naturally didn't want to miss it, so he said, "Apprentice to meet Master." ”

"Hahaha......" The old man was excited, and said: "I am an old friend of your grandfather, and just now I was worried that you would be unwilling to make me embarrassed in front of him." ”

"Brother Lin got his wish, but I want to thank Brother Lin for accepting this child, and I will have you to teach him in the future. The Third Elder said.

The old man said, "Yes, I have to thank you for it." ”

......

The remaining few people got their wish and were accepted as disciples by the refining master.

The exception is one person, who is still standing alone not far away, but does not show any complaints, just waits quietly......

Blueprint also found the lonely young man, and said to Ming Lao: "Brother Ming, isn't that your grandson? Why don't you call him over." ”

Ming Lao had a hard time, and Mu Zihong on the side said, "Let me come." ”

Ming Lao gave Mu Zihong a grateful look, and the refiner suddenly saw a young man in white walking forward, and they were all shocked, thinking that he was accompanying the elders to see him, but he didn't understand what the young man was doing.

When the lonely young man saw Mu Zihong walking towards him, his heart was full of doubts.

Mu Zihong walked up to him and asked, "You just entered the ground-level refiner not long ago, right?"

The boy said, "That's right. ”

Mu Zihong just wanted to continue asking, but was interrupted by a voice.

"Grandpa, that's the kid. Chao Yuan looked at Mu Zihong and said to the third elder.

The third elder motioned with his right hand not to speak, and he quickly shut up.

Mu Zihong asked, "Are you here to apprentice?"

The young man said firmly: "That's right!"

"Wait!" The Third Elder looked at everyone and said, "Who brought this little brother, he shouldn't be a refiner, right?

Ming Lao said, "Who said he wasn't a refiner?"

Chao Yuan's master said, "But he doesn't have the refiner's nameplate on him, is that true?"

Ming Lao was stunned when he heard this, Mu Zihong did not have a refiner nameplate, and he didn't know how to explain it now.

The third elder said again: "Not to mention that the refiner is not here to participate in the appraisal meeting, but his current behavior can be regarded as a disturbance, right? According to the rules of our industry, the light ones will blow him away, and the heavy ones will abolish his cultivation. ”

The old man supported: "That's right, if he still wants to take in apprentices, it is already a felony." ”

Ming Lao said angrily: "You are, I know that your grandson has a grudge against him, and he wants to use this to announce his personal vendetta!"

The third elder didn't panic at all, and said: "It's good that my Yuan'er has a conflict with him, but this code is one yard, you give a comment, didn't he violate our rules?"

"That's right, he's not a refiner. ”

"Yes, he is not qualified to accept apprentices. ”

......

Many people took the opportunity to befriend the three elders, and some were silent, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

The third elder said, "You see, it's not that the old man has a personal vendetta, but that he has indeed violated the rules of our business. ”

Elder Ming was weak, and said to the Great Elder and Blueprint beside him, "Why don't you two speak?"

The Great Elder said, "No hurry, no hurry. ”

But Blueprint said, "It's okay, see how he copes." ”

Chao Yuan whispered: "It's still grandpa and master who are smart, see if you have so good luck this time." ”

When Mu Zihong heard everyone's words, he didn't react at all, but said to the young man, "What kind of refiner do you think is a great refiner?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, feeling that this question was simple and not simple, and said after a while: "I don't know ......"

Seeing this, Chao Yuan's master said, "Do we still want to see him continue to mess around?"

Blueprint teased: "Of course keep reading, don't you want to know what kind of refiner is a great refiner?"

Everyone didn't dare to talk to the blueprint, and Chao Yuan's master closed his mouth in amusement.

Mu Zihong said, "Do you think they are great refiners?"

The young man knew that Mu Zihong was talking about his grandfathers, so he nodded.

Mu Zihong said, "What do you want to do if one day you become a great refiner like them?"

The young man was stunned for a moment and said, "I didn't think about it. ”

Mu Zihong said: "You also heard it just now, they are going to blast others away at every turn, and even abolish other people's cultivation, do you want to be such a refiner?"

The boy shook his head without hesitation.

The three elders and the others were eager to teach Mu Zihong a lesson, but they could only watch with their eyes blank.

Mu Zihong said again: "Actually, you are not suitable for refining weapons, you have a resolute and tenacious personality, you should cultivate stars, and you are now a Xuanxing Nine Star, if you are not mistaken, you have never seriously cultivated." ”

The boy said, "That's right, but it's my father's wish to become a master refiner. ”

Mu Zihong said, "Do you know why they spoke to me like this just now?"

The boy said, "Because they are better than you." ”

Mu Zihong said: "I know a little about your experience. If you're strong, you'll be able to get out of danger when you're in trouble......"

The young man instantly said excitedly: "You were sent by him to convince me, right? I knew that he would not give up, I didn't need him to care, you ...... go."
