At the entrance of the branch of the Instrument League, Lin Liang carefully looked at the entrance that represented one-eighth of the Instrument League, and this was also the first time Lin Liang came to the branch of the Instrument League. Unlike other forces or merchants, there are no guards at the entrance of the branch of the Instrument Alliance, whether it is a smelter wearing a smelter's robe, other costumes, or even some civilians, they can enter and exit freely, this is the first time Lin Liang has seen such a situation, and he can't help but be a little amazed at the moment.

"Brother, new here, I can familiarize you with this, as long as five hundred spirit crystals, how about it?" Just as Lin Liang was standing outside the entrance of the branch of the Instrument Alliance, a thin man came over and said in Lin Liang's ear with a smile.

"Oh, you're familiar with this place?" Lin Liang didn't rush to agree, but asked with a smile, his eyes still fixed on the plaque of the Instrument Alliance Branch.

"That's it! I'm familiar with it! Little brother, you go around here and listen to it, my skinny monkey is also the number one in this area, and I know a lot of people here, I think it's your first time here, right? With my skinny monkey here, I promise that you will soon be familiar with this place!" said the lean man called Skinny Monkey patted his chest.

Hearing this, Lin Liang withdrew his gaze from the plaque placed on the branch of the Instrument Alliance, turned to look at the lean man in front of him, and said in his heart: "Elder Huo only told me before to come to the Shangyang City Instrument Alliance Branch to participate in the assessment, but he didn't say how to get it specifically, and now it's not bad to have someone as a guide!"

At the moment, he had made up his mind, Lin Liang took out five hundred spirit crystals from his arms and threw them directly at the thin monkey and said, "Okay, since you say so, then I will trouble you!"

The thin monkey caught the spirit crystal thrown by Lin Liang, confirmed the number, immediately smiled, patted his chest vigorously and said, "Little brother, don't worry, since my thin monkey has accepted your money, naturally I won't cheat you!"

As soon as he entered the branch of the Instrument Alliance, Lin Liang instantly felt that the aura and temperature inside it were very different from those outside the branch of the Instrument Alliance, and he was slightly surprised, until he saw the stones paved under his feet, and he suddenly realized, and he couldn't help but sigh at the moment The generous work of the Instrument Alliance, even the stone bricks on the floor have been smelted by special techniques, no wonder the name of the Instrument Alliance can resound in the big 6.

"How is it? have you seen it?" Seeing the surprised expression on Lin Liang's face, the thin monkey walking in front of Lin Liang said triumphantly: "Every inch of ground in this is smelted by the smelters, in which not only the temperature is the most suitable temperature for itself, but even the aura has been filtered once, which is easier to absorb than the outside world, and there are fewer impurities!"

Hearing the smug tone of the thin monkey, as if he was also a member of this place, Lin Liang smiled slightly and exclaimed: "The Instrument Alliance really deserves its name!"

"Yes, but you'll get used to it after a few visits, so it's not really a big deal. The thin monkey slowly walked in with Lin Liang, and asked as he walked: "By the way, do you have any goals?" or what you want to do, if not, I will take you to introduce it from the inside!"

"Yes, I'm here to participate in the smelter certification assessment!" Hearing this, Lin Liang said seriously.

"Hehe, what kind of person dares to say that he is a smelter when he enters here now? I don't look at how much weight I have, and I have a dirt bun!" Before the thin monkey could reply, a sarcastic voice came from not far away.

Lin Liang raised his head, only to see a clear figure standing in front of the thin monkey, and said unceremoniously to the thin monkey: "I said thin monkey, next time you take over the job, put your eyes on the bright spots, don't bring anyone in, especially this kind of soil bun!" Although Qingli's figure was talking to the thin monkey, the sarcasm in his eyes was shot at Lin Liang's body, and seeing that the latter did not react, he snorted coldly and walked into the depths of the branch of the Instrument Alliance.

After Qingli's figure disappeared into the depths of the branch of the Instrument Alliance, the thin monkey wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, turned his head to Lin Liang and said apologetically: "Little brother, don't mind what the one said just now, that person here is notoriously unreasonable, and someone like me who borrows someone's place to eat is really unreasonable!"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Lin Liang looked indifferent, waved his hand and said, "But who is that? This is one of the eight branches of the Instrument Alliance, and it is so flamboyant!" Speaking of Zhang Yang, Lin Liang suddenly remembered Xu Ruoxin, the granddaughter Xu Ruhai entrusted him to take care of, and the tone of the Qingli figure he saw today was really the same!

"That's a big one!" The thin monkey thought for a moment and said: "That name is Wu Xiu'er, the granddaughter of the fifth-order smelting master Hei Kai, the deputy head of the Shangyang City Instrument Alliance Branch, she is good-looking, but her personality is more difficult to get along with, but her talent as a smelter is really good, and she is only sixteen years old now, and she is already preparing to participate in the assessment of a second-order smelter! ”

"Second Order?" Hearing this, Lin Liang showed a wry smile on his face, he just thought that he could avoid it, but it turned out that the other party and his goal were actually the same, it seemed that there was no way to avoid it!

"But is it true that you said before that you were going to participate in the smelter's certification assessment?" the thin monkey suddenly thought of something and asked Lin Liang.

"It's true!" Lin Liang nodded, and asked with a smile, "Why are you dressed so ordinary, don't you look like a smelter?"

"That's not it, I've been here for several years, and I don't know how many smelters I've seen, and I've seen a lot of people like you, little brother, in my opinion, although smelters and alchemists are relatively special professions, I always feel that smelters are better. The thin monkey said hurriedly.

"Oh, why do you think that a smelter is a little better than an alchemist?" Lin Liang said curiously.

"Because alchemists always look like they're on top!" replied the thin monkey without thinking: "I've also seen some alchemists before, all of them are arrogant like something, compared to the smelters are a little easier to get along with, at least not so much!"

Hearing this, Lin Liang was dumbfounded, although he had not been in the Life and Destruction Sect for a long time, he had also heard from the little fat man Xu Shan how the alchemists in the sect were arrogant, and when he heard the thin monkey comment like this, it was not a false rumor.

"But little brother, now it's better for you not to meet Wu Xiu'er, so as not to be targeted!" said the thin monkey and asked Lin Liang, "By the way, little brother, are you going to participate in the assessment of a first-order smelter, right?"

"It's the second order!" Lin Liang smiled bitterly and pointed to a sign in the distance that said "The assessment office" and said, "Are you going over there to participate in the assessment?"

"Huh? Yes. The thin monkey subconsciously replied, and by the time he reacted, Lin Liang had already walked towards the assessment office.

"It's over, it's over, why is it so coincidentally a second-order!Wu Xiu'er is also taking the second-order exam, it's over!" The thin monkey touched the five hundred spirit crystals in his arms, gritted his teeth, and walked in the direction where Lin Liang left, and said in his heart: "Anyway, I'm just waiting outside, so it's not a vain collection of spirit crystals!"

In a room deep in the branch of the Instrument Alliance, an old man and a middle-aged man were sitting opposite each other, drinking spiritual tea.

After a while, the old man put down the spiritual tea in his hand and exclaimed: "I haven't been back for a while, but I didn't expect this spiritual tea in Anyang to be nostalgic as always!"

"Yes, Lao Hei, I specially asked the people below to keep it for you, and I didn't give it at all when others asked for it!" Fang Yu said with a smile: "Speaking of which, how about going to the Hegu City branch for joint smelting this time?"

"The matter was successfully completed, but ......" Hei Kai pondered for a while, but still spoke: "The Hegu City branch wants to have a discussion with our Shangyang City branch between the branches of the Instrument Alliance, and they also found the Yongquan City branch as a witness. ”

"Huh, you won't agree, will you?" Fang Yu exclaimed in surprise.

Hei Kai nodded curtly, but then said, "I agreed because of the conditions proposed by the Hegu City Branch, and it is really difficult to refuse!"

"What conditions?" Fang Yu obviously didn't believe that there were any conditions that could make Hei Kai tempted, but it was also said that the Qimeng had three major branches in the Southern Regions, among which the strength of the Hegu City branch was the strongest, and the branch ratios in previous years were almost always the first, while Shangyang City was generally the last, and occasionally it was second, so for this kind of exchange, as the head of the Shangyang City branch, Fang Yu had always avoided it, but he didn't expect that he couldn't avoid it this time.

"The condition is that the victorious side can have five places to enter the Cloud Dream Realm under the control of the Hegu City Branch, and the harvest is completely owned by the individual. Hei Kai said in a deep voice: "More importantly, the Hegu City Branch proposed to set the location of the battle in the molten fire core tower controlled by our Shangyang City Branch in the next five years!"

"The location is in the Molten Core Tower, the reward is the experience qualification of the Cloud Dream Realm, what a big deal!" Fang Yu was also shocked by the news that Hei Kai said, and muttered, "Then Li Dongshui is really courageous!"

"No, what's wrong!" As the head of a branch, Fang Yu quickly reacted from the shock at the beginning, and said with a sneer: "Li Dongshui has a good idea! In the past five years, it has been the turn of my Shangyang City branch to control the Molten Fire Core Tower, and his Hegu City branch has no way to interfere, so he does not hesitate to use the Cloud Dream Realm as a bait, and justifiably sends people into the Molten Fire Core Tower!"

"But this matter is actually not a loss, anyway, the Molten Fire Core Tower has been with us for five years, and his Cloud Dream Realm has always been there, but it is difficult to say whether the outcome is too high, and he has lost in his own territory, I am afraid that the influence of the Shangyang City branch will be even lower!"

Saying that, Fang Yu asked Hei Kai, "Does the other party have any requirements for the people sent?"

"Yes!" Hei Kai hurriedly said: "The Hegu City branch said that this competition is just a small test, so the decision is to send a smelter who is less than twenty years old and below the third order!"

"Twenty years old, smelters below the third order, this is a bit difficult!" Hearing this, Fang Yu couldn't help but frown and said.
