Like Hao Jun's origin, Qi Mei Stick is also from the divine Muyin clan, which is divided into two branches, one is a full-time pharmacist and an alchemist, and the other is a specialized martial artist who wholeheartedly protects the pharmacist and alchemist.

Hao Jun didn't mention much about the clan, but introduced the origin of the Qi Mei stick: "This Qi Mei stick is a weapon refined by an ancestor of our Muyin clan, using the branches of the sacred tree of the Muyin clan, the sycamore, because the Shenmu Wutong is already magical, so this Qi Mei stick has reached the level of a spiritual weapon as soon as it is formed." Moreover, after generations of ancestors, this weapon can only be used by those who practice the exclusive exercises of the Muyin clan, and the most important thing is that it can continue to grow according to the strength of the person who uses it. ”

A weapon that can grow on its own, even if it is not mentioned in the master's records, Ling Yi has gained insight and made a secret promise to Hao Jun.

Hao Jun introduced it clearly and asked Ling Yi: "Junior brother, are you a refiner?"

Ling Yi thought for a while and explained: "It shouldn't be considered a refiner, what my master left me is blacksmith knowledge and skills, so I want to have a certain difference from the refining tools you said." ”

Hao Jun wondered: "Is there a difference? Isn't a blacksmith a kind of refiner? It's just that no refiner is famous, and it seems that he can't forge high-grade weapons, and only a refiner can refine high-grade weapons." ”

Ling Yi explained: "My master is a pure blacksmith, don't you think the giant hammer he left for me is also a spiritual weapon?"

Hao Jun thought for a while: "That's right, your giant hammer will not be lower in grade than Sun Ze's broken army axe, but why does the world say that blacksmiths are inferior to refiners?"

Ling Yi also had doubts, and said: "I don't know about this, my uncle said that the characteristic of blacksmiths is to turn ordinary metals into powerful weapons by forging and smelting, and give full play to the characteristics of metal materials themselves. He didn't seem to say much about the rest, and he had to ask him when he went back in the future. ”

Hao Jun said approvingly: "You should ask carefully, listening to you say this, your master should be a great blacksmith." All alchemists start as blacksmiths, and then switch to refining skills when necessary. Now you are still young and your skills are still poor, but in the future, when your skills are mature, you will have a choice. In the future, whether you continue to work as a blacksmith or switch to refining weapons must be prepared. ”

After listening to Hao Jun's words, he had a plan in his heart, he didn't know how powerful and powerful the refiner would be, he only knew that the master was the only divine craftsman in the whole continent, and there was no divine refiner on the mainland.

What he urgently needs to understand is why the master is practicing blacksmith skills instead of refining skills?

After the two said goodbye, Ling Yi, who had something in his heart, returned to the room early.

This time in the trial competition, not everyone participated, for example, Wu Fei did not participate.

When he returned to the Academy of Literature from the main peak, he heard that Senior Brother Wu Fei asked the third uncle to join the army, but he did not take Xie Ting with him, because he was introduced to the army, he had no qualifications, and he couldn't bring his family, so he could only wait until he made military merits and had his own house before he could bring his family. So Xie Ting did not leave, but continued to stay in the academy.

Except for Wu Fei, the eighth-grade student of the Martial Arts Academy did not participate, so there were only thirty students who participated in the trial this time.

Early in the morning of August 1, everyone gathered on the main peak challenge platform, and today there were no representatives of other forces to watch the ceremony, only the students who participated in the competition and the three elders and other teachers or so.

Elder Bai saw that the personnel had arrived, and began to introduce the rules: "The qualifying challenge ended successfully a few days ago, and most of the students have shown their extraordinary strength, but there are also some students who have not played very well, do you want to have a good ranking? Do you want to get ahead? That opportunity has come, the Vast Canyon Trial that started today is your chance!"

This year's trial competition is set in the middle of the vast canyon, which is a paradise for martial arts level demon beasts, and from time to time one or two great martial arts level demon beasts will run out, don't dare to go and get out of it as soon as possible, don't lose your life!"

All the students did not flinch, Elder Bai looked at the students, and nodded happily: "Okay, good, good, our Haoran Academy really doesn't have a bad seed, remember, high risk has high reward, the academy has decided to increase the exchange ratio of the last demon beast core points from five times in the past to seven times." Come on, little rabbit cubs, come back after earning points, go to the Treasure Building to change things, and exchange all the treasures of the Great Elder!"

"Yes!" replied all the students in a loud voice, their eyes lit up and they were eager to try.

"I just want you to be the spiritual head, let's go!" After speaking, Elder Bai and the Fourth Elder retreated.

Ten leading teachers took Ling Yi and his party to the vast canyon, and it was not until several teachers on the periphery of the canyon that they distributed the canyon map and sent thirty students into the forest.

All the trainees were either in groups of three or five, or alone, and within half an hour they had already disappeared into the woods.

Wu Hai, who didn't worry about coming with him, took him with him, the middle level was still too dangerous for Ah Hai, and Ling Yi didn't care much about points, he had already earned a lot before, so he wanted to take Ah Hai on the periphery or transition layer to experience him. Now, the ranking is not particularly important to Ling Yi.

Ling Yi opened the map and studied it carefully, this vast canyon stretched from the boundary of Jingzhou to the south of the subsidiary kingdom of the Dongsheng Empire, the Baise Kingdom, stretching for three thousand miles, with thousands of ravines and endless primeval forests. It is only about 400 li in the territory of the Dongsheng Empire, and the middle layer of the canyon mentioned by the academy is only the 100 to 200 li range of these 400 li.

If you look at the whole canyon, the middle layer of the academy is only the edge of the whole canyon. Entering the territory of the Baise Empire, that is the real hinterland of the canyon, and I don't know how many powerful demon beasts are hidden in the canyon.

Finding the right direction, Ling Yi is ready to take Ah Hai first to the lake he found in the last academic training, which is already close to the transition zone, and it is one of the few water sources in the entire periphery, there will be many demon beasts or animals to drink water and hunt there, which is suitable for Ah Hai to practice.

The two of them traveled all the way, until they didn't encounter any monsters or beasts, and when they arrived at the lake, it was close to noon. At this time, the heat in the woods was unbearable, and I couldn't hear the movement of other animals except for the non-stop screaming.

After a morning of travel, sweating, the two swam happily, caught a few fish, made a fire, and were about to die, of course, ushered in Ahai's strong dissatisfaction.

Ling Yi relied on his memory to come to the place where he killed the green fang python last time, but this place was already flooded with weeds, and the green fang python's bones had long been gnawed clean by other carnivores, and not even a single intact bone was left.

Picked up a few broken bones, piled them together, returned to the lake, called Ah Hai, handed him a bottle of unknown liquid, and ordered: "Tonight you start to fight with those demon beasts, this is a bottle of bone burning water, poured on the bones of demon beasts, it will produce a gas, it will attract foraging demon beasts, after dark, you will take this to the place where you killed the green python last time, lure out the surrounding demon beasts, and use all means to surrender the lured demon beasts to me, and you are not allowed to kill any of them, remember?"

Ah Hai scratched his head and replied, "Catch them alive, can't you kill them, it's too difficult, fighting these demon beasts, killing them is much easier than subduing them!"

"Do you want to go, or do you quit now?" and I'll send you back?" Ling Yi kicked Ah Hai.

Ah Hai rolled the earth and dodged the kick. Hurriedly ran to the designated place to familiarize himself with the battlefield.

At dusk, a lot of animals come out to drink, there are too many animals at this time, and there are a lot of monsters foraging around, Ah Hai doesn't dare to sprinkle bone water at this time, he likes to fight, but he doesn't like to be beaten, so he can only wait until the monsters disperse at night.

After nightfall, the jungle became unusually quiet, and it was the beginning of the month, without a trace of light, in order not to affect Ah Hai, Ling Yi did not light a fire, and rested quietly on the branches of a big tree.

Ah Hai, counting that the time was almost up, slowly touched the side of the bones, sprinkled a few drops of bone burning water, and suddenly the bones rattled, and there was a strong fishy smell. Ah Hai hurriedly found a tree and hid, waiting for the demon beast to come to the door, and kept muttering: "I hope that this time it is not a high-level demon beast of a martial artist such as a green fang python, otherwise it will be enough for me to drink a pot!"

After about half an hour, there was no sound, and Ah Hai couldn't wait a little: "Aren't there any demon beasts here?" ”

Quietly, he felt back to the bone, and before he could take out the bottle, he found two green eyes staring at him in the grass on the right side, which startled Ah Hai.

Seeing two eyes rushing towards him, he couldn't see what was coming, Ah Hai hurriedly put his hands on his chest, his arm tingled, and he was bitten by the comer.

At this time, Ah Hai saw clearly that it was a green wolf that attacked him, and from the blow just now, it can be seen that the strength of this green wolf is not inferior to Ah Hai, or even higher than Ah Hai. A man and a wolf each took a few steps back, observing each other with fear.

The situation was critical, Ah Hai didn't know when he sprinkled the bone burning water on the ground, most of it was splashed on the bones, and he didn't have time to think, so he could only defend against the attack of the green wolf.

Seeing that Ah Hai glanced at the bones, as if he was distracted, the green wolf seized the opportunity to attack again, and the two sides fought for several rounds, and they had already tested the strength of the green wolf, this is definitely a leader-level green wolf, and his strength has reached the level of a six-rank martial artist.

The green wolf is known for its speed and bite, and a single green wolf still has a chance to fight with the strength of Ah Hai's three products, but Ah Hai does not dare to be careless. Because the strength of the green wolf is not strong, but it is a social species, that is to say, there may be a group of the same kind behind this green wolf, I don't know where to hide?

There is only one possibility for such a leader-level green wolf to charge into battle, that is, there is a green wolf more powerful than him to lead him, and it will be even more terrifying!

Ah Hai didn't dare to hesitate, he had to find a way to solve it quickly, and Ling Yi asked him not to kill the demon beast, so he could only capture it alive, which was full of difficulties.

In the dark night, Ah Hai's eyes are not as bright as the green wolf, but his dexterous body can always avoid the sneak attack of the green wolf, and he has fought dozens of rounds before and after, and finally hit the key point of the green wolf.

Everyone said that the copper-headed and iron-tailed tofu waist, but if he wanted to hit the tofu waist of the green wolf, Ah Hai paid the price, let the green wolf bite again, and finally took the green wolf down.

Ah Hai was about to step forward to capture the green wolf, but at this moment, the surrounding grass lit up with a green cold light again.
