At 8 o'clock in the evening, under the bright lights in the gymnasium, the eight contestants lined up.

Directly opposite, is the judges' seat of this conference, five old men over half a hundred years old are sitting on their knees, taking turns to identify the eight newly refined Qibao Qi Nourishing Pills, and finally glance at each other, silently write the scores of these pills in a booklet, and hand them to the old man in Tang costume who is holding the microphone.

"The top eight rankings are out." The old man in Tang costume used the microphone to transmit his voice to every corner of the gymnasium: "The four people who advanced to the finals are Huo Qinglan, Xu Huaibei, Wang Zhimeng, and Zhu Jiujie!" ”

The audience was silent for three seconds.

Then it boiled instantly.

Hundreds of eyes were fixed on the four contestants in the field, some fiery, some envious, some jealous, and some appreciative.

Some of the powerful people of Daye City sitting in the front row couldn't help but pay attention to the four people, and they were discussing: "Huo Qinglan, as a member of the Huo family, and the owner of the Nantianmen Pharmacy, is very unlikely to be co-opted by the Xu family. ”

"Wang Zhimeng is the Wang family, it is said that in order to cultivate such an alchemist, the Wang family went to Dengxian Pavilion, and the Xu family will never let him go."

"Not to mention Xu Huaibei, he is the son of the Xu family, and he came up to participate in the competition, just to make a name for himself."

"Only that Zhu Jiujie doesn't seem to be from any family, if he doesn't accept the Xu family's wooing, we have a chance to take him under our command."

In a position in the middle of the audience, Du Ruolin bit her lip lightly, staring closely at the young man wearing the mask of Zhu Bajie, and her face couldn't help but change.

In the test field.

The old man in Tang costume put down the microphone and came to the four contestants, and said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to a few of you, although there will be a round of competition to determine the champion, runner-up, third runner-up, and palace runner-up, but up to now, your strength in refining medicine has been recognized, so the old man, on behalf of the Xu family, officially invites you, are you willing to settle in my Xu family's Dengxian Pavilion?" Rest assured, after entering Dengxian Pavilion, it is equivalent to the core personnel of my Xu family, and you can weigh the benefits yourself. ”

Wang Zhimeng, who looked ordinary, took a step forward, didn't think about it, arched his hand to the old man in Tang costume, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Zhimeng is willing to settle in." ”

"Good!" The old man in Tang costume said happily: "Wang Zhimeng, I have seen the elixir you refined, and the quality is quite good, even if it is used for sale, it will definitely be widely praised." Since you are willing to come to my Xu family, this matter is not a small matter, you will invite your family master to come after you go back and discuss future cooperation with us. ”

"Yes!" Wang Zhimeng replied, retreated and sat down, his face ecstatic.

The old man in Tang costume paused, and then set his eyes on Huo Qinglan.

Huo Qinglan stuck out her tongue at him, and said playfully: "Uncle Xu Zhenping, don't bother thinking in vain, it's impossible for me to go to your Dengxian Pavilion." ”

The old man in Tang costume named Xu Zhenping smiled dumbly, and did not force it, but extended his thumbs to that Xu Huaibei, and said with relief: "The fourth young master has excellent talents, and he really lived up to the expectations of the head of the family, and the future is promising." ”

Xu Huaibei smiled indifferently, and his handsome face looked arrogant.

Xu Zhenping finally set his eyes on Li Changjing, he raised his eyebrows, and did not rush to win over, but asked softly: "Friend Zhu Jiujie, I don't know which family you are?" ”

Li Changjing thought for a moment and replied, "My family is not in Daye City, I am here to find someone." ”

Xu Zhenping sighed thoughtfully, and asked again: "Can you reveal that there is no Yuan Force on your body, how do you control the dose of the liquid medicine?" And it's so delicately controlled. ”

Li Changjing said softly: "Diligence can make up for clumsiness, and stupid birds fly first." ”

Xu Zhenping laughed, "A good diligence can make up for the clumsiness." Alright, let's start the final round. ”

Huo Qinglan was puzzled, stood up and asked, "Uncle Xu, why don't you win over this Zhu Bajie, he is also a master of alchemy." ”

Xu Zhenping smiled slightly, and deliberately said with a microphone: "The industry of refining medicine relies on talent, not diligence. This friend of Zhu Jiujie only has half a Dao fetus, and he can't even use his vitality, which means that he can't refine higher-grade pills, and he is destined to go far. What I need to ascend the Immortal Pavilion is a potential talent, and I don't need him to rely on practice to make perfect, so he can barely refine half a bucket of water. ”

Huo Qinglan suddenly realized: "You mean to say that Zhu Bajie's achievements have stopped here?" ”

Xu Zhenping nodded, "So to speak." ”

Wang Zhimeng glanced at Li Changjing, the corners of his mouth hooked up a little sneer, and he was infinitely disdainful in his heart. What, it turned out to be half a bucket of water, and I still regarded him as an opponent.

Xu Huaibei was even more disdainful, sneered, and sneered: "What stinky fish and rotten shrimp, with a face covered, you think you are hidden and can pretend to be a master?" Dare to be clever in front of my Xu family, it's really self-defeating. ”

At the same time, after hearing Xu Zhenlin's evaluation of Li Changjing through the microphone, there were bursts of boos from the audience, and some people who originally planned to win over Li Changjing also frowned, showing disgust on their faces, thinking how could this guy be half a bucket of water, could it be that it was all luck to reach the finals?

Du Ruolin in the crowd looked at the young man who was sitting quietly and silently, with a little coldness on her pretty face. She said sarcastically softly: "What I don't want, I don't want others to get, isn't this what the Xu family has always done?" ”

"Now it's time for the final round." Xu Zhenping, an old man in Tang costume, knocked on the drum next to him and announced loudly with the microphone.

In the final round of the competition, each contestant needs to refine two Huayuan pills at the same time, and whoever has two pills of high quality will win.

Although the content of the competition is simple, it is quite difficult to put it into practice. The four people present, from day to night, both their energy and physical strength were consumed, not to mention that when they became pills, they needed to spend a lot of attention, and it could be said that it was a difficult challenge to refine two pills at the same time at this time.

The first people who used to refine the elixir were Xu Huaibei and Huo Qinglan, of which Xu Huaibei took forty minutes, while Huo Qinglan directly shortened it by half, and it only took 20 minutes to condense successfully.

Li Changjing took a closer look and found that Xu Huaibei's face was a little pale, sweating on his forehead, on the other hand, Huo Qinglan, although he was also sweating, but his spirit was very energetic, and the two of them had already made a judgment on their alchemy talents.

The next people who need to refine medicine are Li Changjing and that Wang Zhimeng.

The two of them each came to a scorpion machine, and Wang Zhimeng did not forget to cast a gloating gaze at Li Changjing before refining the medicine.

Forty minutes later, near ten o'clock in the evening, Li Changjing and Wang Zhimeng finished refining each and sent the pill to the judges' table for identification. ”

Xu Zhenping stared at the booklet in his hand, with a look of pity on his face, "The person who won the palace army is Wang Zhimeng." ”

"What?!"

After hearing this result, Wang Zhimeng sat down on the chair, his face was pale, and he said in disbelief: "This ...... How is this possible? ”

Xu Zhenping glanced at him, then retracted his gaze and continued to announce: "Now announce the name of the champion!" ”

In the audience, hundreds of people stared intently at the stadium, waiting for this exciting moment.

Even Xu Huairou, who had slept for several hours on a soft sofa next to her, woke up yawning, rubbed her eyes, and waited intently for the result.

I only heard Xu Zhenping announce in a deep voice: "The people who won the championship this time are Huo Qinglan, Xu Huaibei, and Zhu Jiujie!" The three of them are in the same ranking, and they are in the same ranking! ”
