Chapter 767: Alchemy Competition
In the face of the enthusiasm of Lu Ming and the others, this housekeeper naturally would not refuse, and the family advocate also said that no matter what the guests asked, he would have to meet them!
The housekeeper directly responded and let them choose the competition they wanted to participate in.
Master Huoyun and Master and Apprentice Lei Qiang naturally participated in the alchemy competition, while Lu Ming chose the two competitions of refining and array.
However, Lu Ming told the housekeeper not to tell Zhang Meng about their participation in the competition.
The butler answered in one gulp and said they could wear masks during the competition.
As soon as they heard that they could wear masks, Lu Ming and Master Huoyun just smiled, and they both remembered what happened in Yipin Pavilion at the beginning.
"Seniors, then I'll tell you about the tougher opponents in this competition in a moment, and you should pay attention to it then. ”
The butler said.
"No, we don't need that. ”
Master Huoyun said, "You just need to tell us when the game starts. ”
"In two days, will you go with us or will you just go over?"
"Let's go with you, doesn't that Zhang Meng know that we are participating in the competition, or let's go directly by ourselves!"
Lu Ming said.
As the Sinanseong Youth Contest approaches, more and more monks flock to Sinanseong.
They all came to watch the demeanor of the disciples of those big families in Xin'an City, and at the same time, they also watched the current strength of these big families to decide which big family they stood behind.
Two days later, the youth competition began, and Lu Ming and Master Huoyun came to the competition venue early in the morning.
At this time, it was already crowded here, and the three of them found a place where no one was around, put on masks and walked to the place where Zhang's family competed.
"I didn't expect that this Zhang family really has some skills, and they can even find foreign aid, but it is estimated that they are just here to make up the numbers. ”
I saw a young man in Chinese clothes take a look at Lu Ming and the others and sneered.
"Who said we are the fullest, you are the fullest!"
Lei Qiang said with some annoyance.
"Young man, you'd better pay attention to what you say, and I'm a disciple of the Chen family, don't hurt your own family if you give the Zhang family foreign aid!"
After speaking, the young man in Chinese costume left.
"It seems that this Zhang family is not covering the sky in Xin'an City, and the competitors are so arrogant. ”
Lu Ming sighed.
Master Huoyun still knows a lot about this Xin'an City, and he knows that in addition to the Zhang family, there are three big families in this Xin'an City whose strength is not inferior to them.
They are the Chen family, the Ma family and the Kong family, nominally the Zhang family is the largest family in Xin'an City, but in recent years, the strength of the Zhang family has gradually retreated, and the strength of these three families is increasing rapidly.
Not only did these three families unite against the Zhang family, but now they are also secretly plotting to oust the Zhang family from the position of the first family in Xin'an City.
And this youth competition is the result of their secret planning, as long as the Zhang family does not achieve a good ranking, the three of them will take the opportunity to make trouble.
And this time, the Zhang family will definitely not be able to achieve a good ranking, because the three of them have already bought all the famous and capable monks inside and outside Xin'an City.
This is also the reason why Zhang Meng can't find foreign aid.
However, now that Lu Ming, Master Huoyun and Lei Qiang have joined them, the Zhang family has at least won the first place in the alchemy competition.
And Zhang Meng also expected that his family would be at the bottom in this competition, so he was not very enthusiastic about this competition.
"If you work weekdays, I don't have to be so embarrassed today!"
Zhang Meng saw that these family disciples were angry for no reason.
"Brother Zhang is late today, but we are here early!"
As soon as they arrived at the competition venue, someone said.
Zhang Meng looked up and saw that it was Chen Sufeng, the head of the Chen family.
"It turned out to be Brother Chen, all three of you are here?"
"It's all here, it's been half an hour!"
"Isn't there still half an hour left in the game, why are you here so early?"
Zhang Meng asked with some confusion.
"Don't you know that Master Yanping has arrived?"
Chen Sufeng suddenly showed a sneering smile: "Brother Zhang, although you are the head of our first family in Xin'an City, you can't be slow to treat others!"
Zhang Meng's face immediately changed when he heard this, this Master Yanping was the judge they invited to participate in the alchemy competition, and he was also a disciple of Master Huoyun.
What made Zhang Meng's face change a lot was that this Yan Ping liked to be praised by others, and he also hoped that others could revolve around him.
What's more, this Yan Ping is relatively narrow-minded, and it is easier to hold grudges, and he was smiling at you one second and calling him a brother, maybe he will find an opportunity to frame you in the next second.
Especially now that Master Huoyun is in his own mansion, if Yan Ping is allowed to say a few bad words about himself in front of Master Huoyun because of this incident, then the relationship he has established with Master Huoyun these days will be in vain.
Thinking of this, Zhang Meng hurriedly went to Yan Ping.
Sure enough, this Yan Ping's face sank as soon as he saw Zhang Meng, and he didn't pay attention to him and turned around to talk to Ma Dong and Kong Jiansan.
This Ma Dong and Kong Jiansan are the heads of the other two families, and they are naturally very happy to see Yan Ping like this, and they slap Yan Ping's sycophants from time to time.
"Master Yanping, I have something at home so I delayed it, so I have a treat at night!"
Zhang Meng explained.
"The Zhang family has a big business, and there are many things, I know that there are many things, how can I, an alchemist, let you come to visit me, it should be me to meet you!"
As soon as Yan Ping's words came out, Zhang Meng was shocked in his heart, he knew that Yan Ping hated himself.
However, Zhang Meng also knew that this Yan Ping definitely didn't have an opinion about himself just because of this, he guessed that it should be Ma Dong, Kong Jiansan and others who were playing right and wrong in front of Yan Ping.
Although Zhang Meng still wanted to explain a few words, the game began quickly.
It is not only these four major families who participate in the competition, but also other families and forces, and since there is no limit to the number of participants in each family, the number of people participating in the alchemy competition is still very large.
"The content of the first game is to refine a Gathering Spirit Pill Spirit Grass, the purity is more than half, the time is within a stick of incense, and this round can only be promoted to fifty places!"
Soon a staff member came out to announce the rules of the competition, that is to say, only those who complete it within a stick of incense can be considered a pass, but no matter how many passes, only the top 50 are required.
Of course, less than fifty is how many count.
"Seniors, these are your clothes for the competition, hurry up and put them on!"
The housekeeper walked up to Lu Ming and whispered.
Lu Ming and the others took a look, and they found that everyone else was also wearing this kind of clothes, so they also wore them.
After putting it on, they found out that there were two big characters written on the uniforms - Zhang family!
And the competition clothes of the disciples of other families are also written with their family names - Chen family, Ma family, Kong family, Gongsun family, etc.!
