After Xu Zhenping announced the results, a strong discussion broke out in the audience, and everyone's faces were excited, and their eyes were shining, and they all felt very interesting about the result of the three people ranking first.

But there are also some people who have doubts, didn't they just say that Li Changjing's achievements are not high, he is half a bucket of water, why is it that now he is even compared to Wang Zhimeng of the Wang family, and he has a tie with Huo Qinglan and Xu Huaibei?

In the arena, Huo Qinglan frowned, staring at the masked man not far away, with some childish face with some worry, and muttered to herself: "It's bad, I forgot that there is still this stubble, then Zhu Bajie shouldn't be that person, right?" ”

Xu Huaibei's face was pale, he stared at Li Changjing even more, his fists were clenched, he was really unacceptable to this result, so he simply stood up and said to Xu Zhenping: "Uncle Xu, how can there be three champions, this is not in accordance with the rules!" ”

Huo Qinglan also agreed: "That's it, what's the matter with the three champions, do you want Sister Huairou to marry the three of us?" Divide her into three pieces? ”

Xu Zhenping looked a little helpless, and said: "This is also something that can't be helped, who let the three of you refine the pills, and the quality is almost exactly the same?" The five judges are the most famous cultivators in Daye City, and they have excellent vision, so you shouldn't even be able to believe their words, right? ”

Xu Huaibei snorted, sat back in his chair, and had nothing to say.

Wang Zhimeng, who was about to defend himself for a few words, also dispelled this thought, and lay on the chair, his face bloodless and dejected.

"What's so hard about that?"

Coldly, Xu Huairou dragged her little leather whip, walked up slowly, yawned and said, "Let the three of them continue to compete, until they are one, two, or three." ”

"This ......" Xu Zhenping worried: "A few of them have been competing for a day, and the loss is huge, and if they continue to compare, they may hurt their bodies......"

"I don't care, I have to compare now!" Xu Huairou said unreasonably: "Miss Ben waited for a whole day, and she fell asleep until she waited, and used my birthday party to start this kind of breaking competition, but you and my father came up with the idea, otherwise I would have taken my friends out to sea to fish for sharks." ”

"Huo Xiaowu, Xu Xiaosi, can you still compare?" Xu Huairou slammed the leather whip on the ground and asked with a stiff face.

Xu Huaibei knew his sister's temper, if he retreated at this time, he would definitely not have a good life at home in the future, so he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Compare to whom, who is afraid of whom!" ”

Huo Qinglan stuck out her tongue indifferently, "I don't care, anyway, the first place must be mine, and no one can take it." ”

"That's it, the three of you move on to the next round." Xu Huairou didn't intend to ask Li Changjing at all, and directly ignored him.

Li Changjing smiled through the mask, he was still worried about the three first places just now, he didn't expect Xu Huairou to run out and ask the game to continue, which was exactly in line with his wishes, otherwise he wouldn't know what excuse to use to ask for the Buddha beads.

In this way, at Xu Huairou's insistence, the game continued, and the people in the audience stayed up for a day and were already very tired, but for the result of this game, everyone gritted their teeth and held on, after all, this kind of fierce competition is quite interesting, and it is not a casual opportunity to watch.

Eleven o'clock in the evening.

The three contestants, who spent more than half an hour, once again refined the pill, this time the requirements were even more demanding, it was necessary to refine three Huayuan pills at the same time, among which Xu Huaibei was exhausted, his face was pale, and when he walked back to the chair, his legs were shaking.

Huo Qinglan's face was also slightly pale, sweating on her forehead, and she was out of breath.

Li Changjing wore a mask, no one knew what his expression was, but it shouldn't be easy, judging from his violently undulating chest.

After the pills of the three people were sent for identification, the results came out in less than five minutes.

Xu Zhenping announced through the microphone that in the overtime, Zhu Jiujie and Huo Qinglan were still ranked first, and Xu Huaibei was eliminated!

Xu Huaibei, who heard the news, punched the chair on the spot, stomped his feet heavily, and scolded: "Bastard! ”

Xu Huairou frowned, staring at Li Changjing tightly, her face slightly gloomy.

In the audience, Du Ruolin's eyes lit up, she looked at the young man wearing a mask in the field, the corners of her mouth hooked a little arc, and murmured softly: "It's very powerful, Li Changjing, if it can be used by me, how good it would be......"

As the host, Xu Zhenping, an old man in Tang costume, is the most embarrassing one at this time. He put down the microphone, coughed, and said to Li Changjing amiably: "Friend Zhu Jiujie, I take back what I just said, I didn't expect you to hide it deeply, and your ability is not weaker than anyone else, my Xu family is now officially inviting you, I don't know if you are willing to settle in my Dengxian Pavilion?" ”

Li Changjing thought about it and was about to refuse, but Xu Huairou on the side whipped the leather in his hand fiercely and slapped it on his shoulder, causing a hot pain.

"Zhu Bajie, do you dare to try the first place? Miss Ben picks your skin! ”

Li Changjing covered his shoulders and said coldly: "If you can't afford to lose, don't play, since the ranking has been set in advance, why are you still pretending to recruit talents?" Miss Xu, if you say in front of me now, Huo Qinglan's first place is Huo Qinglan anyway, and the pig will leave now, and I don't even want your bullshit reward! ”

Xu Huairou smiled, crossed her waist, looked like "you bite me", and sneered: "What are you doing, agitating the law?" Miss Ben doesn't eat this set. ”

Huo Qinglan on the other side stood up and said dissatisfiedly: "Sister Huairou, it's not right for you to say that. Now I'm only in the same number one with him, I haven't lost yet, and you're too unconfident in me, right? ”

Xu Huairou was a little weak-hearted, but she was continuously stimulated, and her temper also came up, and the leather whip in her hand slammed to the ground, and snorted coldly: "Then continue to compare!" Huo Xiaowu, you fight for me, if you dare to lose to this Zhu Bajie, I know the consequences! ”

Huo Qinglan glanced at Li Changjing, gritted her teeth, and said with a firm gaze: "I will definitely not lose!" ”

It was close to twelve o'clock.

Li Changjing and Huo Qinglan spent forty minutes each refining the four Huayuan Pills.

This time, there is no difference in the appraisal results, it is still the same quality, and it ranks first.

Huo Qinglan was already very tired, but the young girl's refusal to admit defeat was also vividly played at this moment.

Another hour passed, and it was close to eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, and most of the people in the audience couldn't stay up and went back to rest, and the dozens of people left behind were also exhausted, and their eyelids were fighting.

Li Changjing and Huo Qinglan once again each refined the five Huayuan Pills, and they were still evenly divided, regardless of victory or defeat.

Huo Qinglan raised her arrogant petite head, even if her face was pale, she still didn't admit defeat, "Zhu Bajie, give up, I have used this scorpion machine perfectly, and the elixir I refined is also the best quality, you can't win me." ”

Li Changjing frowned, although he didn't speak, he also beat a drum in his heart.

Indeed, using this kind of scorpion machine to refine medicine, the upper limit is very low, Huo Qinglan is extremely talented, and after her previous careful teaching, she has a very good grasp of some small details of Cheng Dan, so she can refine high-quality pills, otherwise she will not be able to develop Nantianmen Pharmacy.

Of course, Huo Qinglan's so-called perfection in refining medicine is just for this kind of broken machine, and Li Changjing did not take it to heart.

"Mr. Xu Zhenping, I don't know if you have a ding furnace here?" Li Changjing thought for a moment and asked. Although he couldn't defeat Huo Qinglan in the use of machines, it didn't mean that he would give up. The so-called refining medicine, Li Changjing has never needed to rely on foreign objects, which is his greatest pride.

Xu Zhenping was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "What do you need Dinglu for?" ”

"Alchemy." Li Changjing said calmly: "This kind of machine hinders my play. ”

Xu Zhenping sneered, and said angrily: "What an arrogant boy." This kind of machine was built by my brother Xu Zhenhai at a huge cost to ask super-first-class scientists from Germany, and using them to refine medicine is already the best tool that human beings can use, and you actually say that it hinders your performance? ”

"Forget it, get him a Ding Furnace." Xu Huairou smiled and said: "Anyway, this is his own request, and he can't blame us for losing." ”

Xu Zhenping snorted, and hurriedly sent someone to carry a half-person-high Ding furnace over.

Ding furnace, at the very beginning, is actually two different utensils, Ding is used to burn fire, furnace is used for cooking, until later some Taoist priests and priests improved, the two were combined into one, and it became a kind of fire cooking coexistence and integration of utensils, and it became a Ding furnace, which was specially used for alchemy.

The Ding furnace moved by the Xu family is blue-green, round, bigger than a person hugging, three-legged, with two ears, and the lid is very thick, at least dozens of catties. Li Changjing went up and touched it, smelled it again, and found that there was still the fragrance of medicinal herbs, and the material should be bronze.

"This Ding furnace was used by my brother to refine medicine in the early years, but because of the low efficiency, it was difficult to become a pill, so after the scorpion machine was manufactured, it was never used again." Xu Zhen said flatly.

Li Changjing checked the inside of the Ding furnace and found that the structure inside was simple, divided into two layers, with a round bowl in the center, which was used to hold medicinal materials, and the bottom was the structure of the incense burner, which was used to place firewood for burning.

"Okay, that's it" Li Changjing patted the Ding furnace and said softly: "I'll use this to refine medicine." ”

Xu Zhenping shook his head, didn't say anything, and used the microphone to announce the start of the game.

Huo Qinglan's face was pale, and her breathing was already very short, but she gritted her teeth and held on, Xu Huairou, who was willful and domineering and had no one in her eyes, actually took a handkerchief to wipe her sweat, and cheered her up: "Huo Xiaowu, you must win that Zhu Bajie, as long as you win him, my sister will depend on you in the future." ”

On the other hand, Li Changjing's demeanor was calm, his left palm was attached to the Ding furnace, and his right hand threw hundreds of precious medicinal materials on the table next to him into the furnace one by one, unhurried, and his movements were gentle.

Xu Zhenping looked at him like this, and said in a mocking tone: "Young man, the Ding furnace can only boil the medicinal herbs, not melt them directly, and the efficiency and effect are too poor. Also, do you want me to help you light the fire? ”

Li Changjing still didn't say a word, and after throwing the required medicinal materials in, he covered the stove lid and put the palm of his right hand on the Ding furnace.

The next moment, a blazing high temperature exploded in the Ding furnace, Xu Zhenping's face changed, and he was shocked: "How is this possible!?" Even a cultivator of the Extraordinary Rank can't do it! What's more, isn't this kid only half a Dao fetus, and he can't even use his vitality! ”

Xu Huairou was also staring at Li Changjing closely, as well as the Ding furnace that had been burned red from the inside to the outside in less than a minute, but Li Changjing put his hands on the Ding, as if he couldn't feel the slightest temperature, which was incredible.

This process lasted less than half an hour.

As Li Changjing left the Ding furnace with both hands, the high temperature in the Ding disappeared instantly, and in an instant, a rich medicinal fragrance, like billowing smoke, spread throughout the entire competition venue, making people smell and be intoxicated.

Wang Zhimeng and Xu Huaibei, who had already been eliminated, sat in the distance, glanced at each other, stood up in unison, and blurted out: "This is impossible!" ”

Xu Zhenping, an old man in Tang costume, changed his face greatly, his lips trembled, and he trembled: "This ...... It's ......"

Li Changjing's body shook a little, and he struggled to stand firmly, he took a deep breath, lifted the lid of the Ding furnace with force, and pushed it to the ground.

The five judges who rushed to hear the news, as well as Xu Zhenping, surrounded the Ding furnace and stuck their heads in.

The next moment, the six people gasped, took a step back with a shocked face, and said in unison: "It's actually Yanyang Dan!" ”

"What, Yanyang Dan!?" Xu Huairou walked forward quickly, glanced at the small bowl in the Ding furnace, and saw a thumb-sized golden pill inside, lying quietly in the middle, the whole body was crystal clear, round and jade, and surrounded by a mist like a mist, like a bright gem existing in the morning mist.

Huo Qinglan, who had not yet finished refining, had no blood on her little face, she looked down at the half-formed Huayuan Dan in her hand, and muttered to herself: "Yanyang Dan, isn't it the legendary second-order pill, but my Huayuan Dan is only a first-order ......"

For the shocked crowd, Li Changjing didn't have too many complicated emotions, he took out a white porcelain bottle from his arms, stepped forward, and put the Yanyang Pill in the Ding furnace into it, and then Xu Zhenping, who was bloodless, said to him: "Can you announce the result?" ”

Xu Zhenping's whole body shook violently, he turned around with difficulty, looked at Xu Huairou in embarrassment, and the hand holding the microphone was obviously trembling.

"He won." Xu Huairou strained her face, looked at Li Changjing with complicated eyes, and asked coldly: "Say, whatever requirements you want to make, Miss Ben can meet you." ”

Li Changjing pointed to her left wrist and said calmly, "I want the Buddha bead in your hand." ”

"Why do you want this?" Xu Huairou shrank her hand, covered the Buddha beads with her sleeve, and frowned: "This is not a valuable thing, let's change it, if you want a car or a house, I can give it to you." ”

Li Changjing shook his head, and said in a firm tone: "No, if you want to lose the bet, I want that Buddha bead." ”

Xu Huairou bit her lip, with a reluctant look on her face, "You better change something, this bead is very important to me, I, I ......"

Li Changjing saw her squirming and pinching, and the Buddha beads loomed at her cuffs, as if he was deliberately teasing his nerves, he couldn't help but take a few steps forward and said in a deep voice: "Give me the Buddha beads!" ”

Xu Huairou was so frightened that she took a few steps back, the usual arrogant and domineering appearance that didn't take anyone in her eyes had long since disappeared, she gritted her teeth, took off the Buddha beads, threw them at Li Changjing, and said in a panic: "The Buddha beads are for you, don't get close to me anymore, my heart is beating hard......

Li Changjing caught the Buddha beads in the air steadily, deaf to Xu Huairou's words, he put the Buddha beads in the palm of his hand and looked at them carefully, feeling the familiar aura on it, his whole body trembled with excitement, and his face behind the mask had already laughed like an idiot.

Finally got the second bead!

Li Changjing was ecstatic in his heart, carefully put the Buddha beads in his pocket, and planned to leave.

But at this moment, a tall man appeared beside Li Changjing after a few jumps from the audience.

Li Changjing was horrified in his heart, and without saying a word, he handed it out with a punch!

The man did not retreat, but advanced, his left hand firmly grasped his wrist, and with a slight wave of his right hand, the mask on Li Changjing's face split in half and fell to the ground.

Xu Huaitian's handsome face was indifferent.

He stared at Li Changjing's face and sneered, "Sure enough, it's you." ”
