Chapter Ninety-Four: Comedy and Tragedy
However, Tianqi was a little surprised that Liu Guomin's speed of refining the pill this time was indeed a bit too fast, but the alchemy diagram was not just a fast word, but also focused on the quality of the pill! Of course, if it was fast and good, it would be the best.
In addition to Liu Guomin on the field, there are two other people who have also refined, but the elixir refined by the other two is obviously not qualified, not to mention the polish of this elixir, just the smooth length of the elixir is enough to make people stunned, one refined pill has a large depression in the middle, while the other refined pill has become a solid oval, and the surface of the pill is as pitted as the surface of the moon.
Among the three people who had been refined earlier, Liu Guomin was better, but Liu Guomin's was also a little flawed, the color was not in place, and the volume of this pill was indeed a bit much larger than the others, and the general pills were only the size of pearls, but the pills that Liu Guomin refined this time were the size of meatballs, Wang Dan was also very anxious when he saw this, and his heart was in his throat, and his eyes stared at the pill in Liu Guomin's Danding.
However, Liu Guomin also found out at this time that he was too anxious to refine this pill like this, he had two choices, one was that he still had two medicinal materials that were useless anyway, and he could choose to refine one again, but there was not a lot of time left, if something went wrong in the process of re-refining a pill, then there was really no hope, and the other choice, that is, the choice that Liu Guomin chose was to continuously process and polish this pill, use the aura to nourish it, and constantly remove the impurities inside, so as to reduce the volume of the pill as much as possible, so that the pill looked normal。
Tianqi glanced at Wang Dan, although Wang Dan looked a little nervous, but there was still a trace of recognition in his eyes. For Liu Guomin's choice, it seems that Wang Dan still agrees with it, indeed, with Liu Guomin's real strength, if Liu Guomin processes and polishes this elixir for half an hour, he can also refine this elixir well, at least if there are not too many dark horses in today's game, Liu Guomin should be able to be selected for the finals on the sixth day.
Soon the remaining half hour passed, and the game ended with the end of time. Liu Guomin handed over the pill before leaving, but his face was a little pale and his expression was not good.
Looking at Wang Dan's somewhat lost cheeks, Liu Guomin lowered his head and said, "Mentor, I'm sorry."
However, Wang Dan didn't blame anything, but walked between Liu Guomin and Jiang Banxia, and said in a peaceful tone: "Don't think too much after the game, you two are tired, sit down and rest for a while."
After Wang Dan finished speaking, he pulled the two people who had just come on the stage to the seats and sat down.
Although there were no people from the Philip Empire in the remaining two games today, the tense atmosphere of everyone was not relaxed, and the most worried among them was Liu Guomin, after all, the last two games were related to whether he could enter the Dan Realm Finals on the sixth day.
In the second game, Xu Xin, a strong man of the Zhudan Empire, came on the field, and Tianqi looked at her blankly, but not because of her beautiful face and slender figure, but because the process of refining the pill was orderly, and the spiritual power control was also in place, so that Tianqi could not find the slightest difference.
Tianqi was a little surprised, Xu Xin's spiritual cultivation strength was not very strong, and at the same time, her soul power was not very strong, at most it was similar to Liu Guomin, but she was more calm and relaxed than others.
Tianqi thought about it and looked at Xu Xin carefully from head to toe, people who didn't know thought that Tianqi had taken a fancy to Xu Xin, and even Xu Xin, who was devoting himself to alchemy, felt Tianqi's focused eyes, and couldn't help but glance back at Tianqi, smiled faintly, and then continued to alchemy.
However, Tianqi's gaze still stayed on Xu Xin, after a long time, Tianqi felt more and more wrong, and his heart kept wondering what was going on, "According to common sense, Xu Xin's spiritual cultivation is not high, and after refining the elixir for more than half an hour, he should be very tired, but Xu Xin's face still has a hint of ruddy, and it does not look very pale, can she continue to absorb the spiritual energy to make up for the consumption of spiritual energy in her body?" But anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xu Xin has not absorbed the aura at all, which can only show that the consumption rate of the aura in Xu Xin's body is slower than that of ordinary people, but the instinctive fire of Xu Xin's aura illusion is not weak with others, and the tripod she uses can only be regarded as a medium Danding, and there is no special situation, is it that she is not using instinctive fire?"
Tianqi was shocked, and carefully looked at the flame used by Xu Xin's alchemy, after a long time, Tianqi smiled heartily, and muttered in a voice that no one else could hear: "It turns out that the flame she uses for alchemy is not an instinctive fire, although the flame she uses is very similar to the instinctive fire, but the flame she uses is better than the instinctive fire!
However, Tianqi has not noticed that his actions have attracted the attention of the Zhudan Empire, and there are ten people from the Zhudan Empire, among which only Xu Xin and Xu Dan are women, and they are both beautiful as flowers, and they have always been the goddesses in the hearts of many boys in the Zhudan Empire, how can they allow a boy from another country to stare at the goddess in their minds for a long time, this is a blasphemy against the goddess in their minds! And it is naked blasphemy! And the goddess in his own mind actually smiled at Yi Tianqi!!
Wang Nicai also felt the hateful gaze from the other contestants of the Zhudan Empire, glanced at Tianqi, and said angrily: "You are still staring at that Xu Xin, be careful that when the competition is over, the people of the Zhudan Empire will eat you."
Tianqi looked at Wang Nicai, stunned for a moment, looked in the direction of Wang Nicai's mouth, and also saw the fierce gaze from the Zhudan Empire, Tianqi shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that there is a corresponding price to pay for looking at a girl twice."
Wang Nicai paused, she didn't expect Tianqi to say such a thing, Wang Nicai's face turned pale, and she said angrily: "It's better to see less in the future!"
Tianqi already knew what he wanted to know anyway, and for the sake of unnecessary trouble, Tianqi still consciously shifted his attention to the other contestants.
In the blink of an eye, the second game was over, and Tianqi glanced at the ten people who participated in the competition, and the pill that Xu Xin refined was the best.
After a short rest, the third game also started on time, and this time Tianqi's eyes were also focused on Xu Dan and Fan Xing, but what made Tianqi a little disappointed was that Xu Dan did not have a mysterious flame like Xu Xin, no different from ordinary people, using instinctive fire, but Xu Dan's spiritual cultivation strength was obviously much stronger than Xu Xin, and the consumption of alchemy was not too big for her.
Tianqi only stayed on Xu Dan for a while, and shifted to Fan Xing, Tianqi wanted to see how strong Fan Xing's strength was, but he still disappointed Tianqi.
"Hehe, hide your strength, it seems that you are really a little tricky."
In the blink of an eye, the sun was a little westerly, and the game was over, which made the atmosphere in Danjie Square tense, because the six competitors who qualified to participate in the Danjie Finals on the sixth day were about to be announced.
Liu Guomin was also nervous, clenched his fists, his nails were cut into the flesh, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his back.
For today's game, Tianqi also saw that Liu Guomin's ranking should be around sixth or seventh, no wonder Liu Guomin was so nervous, but on the other hand, Jiang Banxia, he was not too nervous, because he didn't need to watch it to know that he was out of play.
The Great Elder of the Dan Realm on the stage slowly stood up, holding a list in his hand, and said in a voice that had experienced countless vicissitudes of life with a special sense: "The first three games of the Dan Realm today are over, and today's top six have also been selected, I announce that the first place in today's competition is Xu Xin, the second place is Xu Dan, the third place is Fan Xing, and the sixth place is"
The Great Elder of the Dan Realm paused when he said the sixth place, and Liu Guomin was so nervous that he even had his teeth chattering.
"The sixth place is Liu Guomin from the Philip Empire!"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Guomin suddenly jumped up excitedly like a two- or three-year-old child, although he made a big mistake this time, and he was not in a very good mood even before the game, but no matter what, he still entered the finals.
Wang Dan was also overjoyed, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and showed a long-lost smile on his tense old face.
"Okay, today we have someone in the Philip Empire who has entered the finals, which can be regarded as a good start."
But after the joy, Wang Dan continued: "But this time Liu Guomin, although you entered the finals, you should reflect on your mistakes."
Liu Guomin still had a smile on the corner of his mouth and said: "Mentor, I know that I was a little too impatient when refining the medicinal liquid, but I will definitely pay attention to it when I am in the finals."
After listening to Liu Guomin's reflection, Tianqi didn't say anything, but the corners of his mouth were a little squirming, a trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes, and he sighed in his heart: "Alas, Liu Guomin, your biggest mistake is not this, but your own heart! Don't feel sorry for yourself. And your heart is too susceptible to external fluctuations."
Wang Dan looked at Jiang Banxia with a sharp gaze, through this competition, Wang Dan could see that Jiang Banxia was indeed a talent for alchemy, but his strength was a little low, if he could provide him with a good cultivation platform, over time, he would be able to catch up with Liu Guomin, and even go further than Liu Guomin.
"Jiang Banxia, although you did not enter the finals this time, you are indeed a good seedling of alchemy, and you will come to the Royal Academy of the Philip Empire to study in the future."
After that, Wang Dan glanced at Jiang Banxia, who was dressed in tatters, and added: "And you will be given free tuition."
Jiang Banxia was happy and worried at the beginning when he heard that he could enter the Royal Academy of the Phillip Empire, but when he heard that Wang Dan actually gave him free tuition, although he had no chance to enter the finals this time, Jiang Banxia was also happy in his heart, and nodded again and again.
"Okay, there's nothing going on today, let's go back to the inn first."
Just when Wang Dan was about to leave with everyone, a shrill voice came from not far away: "Please wait a minute."
Everyone turned around, Tianqi's face became a little dark, and he said in his heart: "Liu Guomin, Jiang Banxia, you are a comedy ending, and my tragedy is coming."
It was the people of the Zhudan Empire who told them to stop
Wang Dan's expression was fierce, and his tone was neither strong nor soft: "Is there anything going on in your Zhudan Empire?"
"Hehe, Elder Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time, the contestant I brought said that I wanted to talk to one of your contestants named Yi Tianqi about something, and I couldn't discipline it, so I had to be dragged over by them to ask you for a favor."
Wang Dan glanced at the leading elder of the Zhudan Empire, this elder Wang Dan also knows, called Elder Zuo, who is a bit protective, but not very insidious, and can see it, "Hehe, it turns out that this year's Zhudan Empire is led by Elder Zuo, we haven't seen each other for three years, and it's true that we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Elder Zuo's expression remained unchanged, and he glanced at Yi Tianqi with deep eyes, and said, "I wonder if Elder Wang can sell this favor to Old Decay?"
"I don't know what to do to find Yi Tianqi, you might as well say it here, if there is something wrong with the contestants I lead the team, it will be punished, how about it?" Although Wang Dan didn't know what was going on, the other party must be unkind, so he naturally didn't allow Tianqi to have any problems.
Elder Zuo's expression was a little hesitant, and Elder Zuo also knew very well that these things were trivial matters, and they must not affect the relationship between the two countries, after all, although the Zhudan Empire may be stronger than the Philip Empire in terms of alchemy, but two thousand years ago, the Philip Empire was the first power in the Heavenly Spirit Continent, and although the Philip Empire has now become a medium-sized country like them, the hundred-legged insect is not stiff when it dies, and the military strength of the Philip Empire is still not something that the Zhudan Empire cannot provoke.
"Actually, I don't know what this group of little guys I brought with me are looking for Yi Tianqi, I also pulled it over, it's better like this, I won't interfere in this matter, how about having their young people deal with it on their own?"
"This" Wang Dan was a little difficult, he also saw that Elder Zuo really didn't know the reason for this matter, but he just wanted to hand over Tianqi and let them young people deal with it, Wang Dan was still a little uneasy, after all, the eyes of these contestants in the Zhudan Empire who were not very friendly to Tianqi, and even had a trace of indignation, but none of them dared to make a sound, presumably Elder Zuo had warned them not to make a noise before, and he would deal with it.
Yi Tianqi, who had been silent, glanced at Xu Xin, only to see that Xu Xin had kept his head down, looking a little shy, and he roughly knew why they were looking for him, so he said: "Elder Wang Dan, leave these small things to me to deal with, it's okay."
Elder Wang Dan looked at Tianqi's determined eyes, and he also knew that Tianqi was not an impulsive person. Then he said: "Okay, it's just that Elder Zuo will help me look at it, so as not to let Yi Tianqi cause you any trouble, and it will be difficult to talk about it at that time."
How could Elder Zuo not hear the hint of threat in Wang Dan's words, but he didn't want to make anything happen, so he explained the contestants he brought before he came, and he must not make too much trouble, Elder Zuo also knew that the contestants he brought did not dare to disobey his words, so he didn't have anything to worry about, just said lightly: "Thank you."
Wang Dan glanced at Tianqi and said that he would come back earlier, and then left with the others.
After Elder Zuo looked at Wang Dan and the others leaving, he also handed over a sentence to the contestants of the Zhudan Empire: "Don't poke any basket for me."
Glancing at Tianqi, he also left.
Only Yi Tianqi and the contestants of the Zhudan Empire were left on the field.
