Chapter Fifty-Seven: Ning Lin Wants to Participate in the Contest?

In early autumn and October, the glacier empire is already falling flowers and autumn rain!

Just after an autumn rain, the sky is exceptionally clear, and although the temperature has dropped, it does not affect people's enthusiasm in the slightest!

In the square in front of the main hall of the palace, there was a lot of people!

Nobles dressed in noble feats stood around the square with smiling faces and whispering. Groups of princesses and young ladies in gorgeous dresses are like fairies, gathering together to comment on the young and handsome faces around them!

In this lively atmosphere, there is an undercurrent!

The young people just watched the excitement, but the heads of the major families were not so relaxed! This was already the second of the three competitions between the Ning family and the Zhao family. In the first pill competition, the Ning family lost miserably!

Although the Ning family spent a lot of money to invite a second-level Dan maker, they thought that they could overpower the Zhao family's first-level Dan maker. But who would have thought that the Dan Maker of the Zhao family would invite his master, a seventh-level Pill Maker! The Pill Maker invited by the Ning family would also call others uncle, and there was no need to say anything about the cold results.

Now that the Ning family has been forced to the edge of the cliff, if they lose one more game, even if they lose completely, the Ning family will expel Ning Lin from the Ning family and hand it over to the Zhao family for disposal!

No matter how strong Ning Lin's ability is, if he doesn't have the protection of the Ning family, it is still unknown whether he can get out of the imperial capital alive, and more importantly, even if he can escape from the imperial capital, he will lose the opportunity to participate in the Dragon Club and will not be able to worship the immortal gate!

Therefore, in this casting competition, the Ning family can no longer afford to be defeated! If it is defeated again, there will be no hope of revival for at least a few decades!

Three salutes sounded, and I saw Zhou Juede, the emperor of the Glacier Empire in the main hall, walking out of the hall slowly, followed by Zhao Shengcun, the head of the Zhao family, and Ningbo, the head of the Ning family!

There is no special species of eunuchs in the Glacier Empire, and in this world, women also hold up half of the sky, and those who are responsible for managing ** and serving the emperor are all female officials!

I saw a female official in a cyan court dress take two steps forward and shouted: "Your Majesty the Emperor has driven to ......."

"My emperor's longevity and immortal Qi, blessing the common people!" Thousands of ministers, magnates, and children of the family in the square saluted Zhou Juede.

Zhou Juede waved his hand: "Everyone, please get up!" After speaking, he motioned to the female officer to continue to preside over the competition.

The female officer shouted: "Today is the second competition between the two Zhao Ning families, and the content of this competition is casting! Zhao Ning and the two families each sent three people to participate in the competition, the competition time is seven days, and we provide unified materials, and after seven days, the weapon cast by that side is of a higher grade, and it is considered a victory! We specially invited the president of the Glacier Empire Branch of the Foundry Association to serve as the judge of the sixth-level casting division of the Soldier Commander, can the two Zhao Patriarch and Ning Patriarch have any objections?"

Zhao Shengcun smiled and shook his head: "There is no objection, everything is according to the will of His Majesty the Emperor!"

Ningbo shouted with a blue face: "No!"

"Now invite the representatives of the two clans to play!"

With the words of the female official, three people from the Zhao family and the Ning family in the north and south walked out of each person.

Seeing these six people, the patriarchs of the other families around couldn't help but be a little stunned. The three representatives of the Zhao family know two of them, namely Zhao Likuan, the first-level caster of the Zhao family, and Zhao Shengren, the third-level caster, and the person who does not know is still walking in front of the two of the Zhao family, thinking that his identity and status are still above the two of the Zhao family, at least he is also a fourth-level caster!

Looking at the three people from the Ning family, everyone is very familiar with them. The two people in front are Ning Dong, the first-level foundry master of the Ning family, and Ning Jing, the fourth-level foundry!

To say that this Tranquility is indeed the casting genius of the Ning family, as a woman, but in her thirties, she can become a fourth-level caster, and her future is limitless, if this competition is delayed for another ten years, Tranquility alone will be enough to determine the winner!

But since the Zhao family knew that the Ning family had a fourth-level casting master, the casting division they invited would definitely exceed the fourth-level, otherwise wouldn't it be tantamount to giving up this competition, so there was little hope of winning for Ningning!

Looking at the last caster of the Ning family to participate in the competition, many people were immediately happy! It turned out to be Ning Lin!

When it comes to cultivation, everyone admits that Ning Lin is an amazing genius, and some people have even classified him as a demon, but isn't it a joke that he came to participate in the foundry competition? I heard that Ning Lin was an idiot before he was thirteen years old, and it only took two years to have today's cultivation, which is already a blessing, could it be that he also dabbled in the casting journey? Or did Ning Lin just want to see how he lost?

No matter what the others were, as soon as Ning Lin appeared on the scene, it immediately caused an uproar on the scene! In particular, the young ladies of the major families gave great enthusiasm to Ning Lin in front of them, and for a while, the crisp cheers and applause were endless, completely breaking the solemn atmosphere in the palace!

Zhao Shengcun, who was standing on the stage, smiled coldly and said to Ningbo in a low voice: "If your Ning family wants to give up, why bother to alarm Your Majesty? Besides, if you had this attitude, I might be able to keep Ning Lin's life, at most abolish his cultivation!"

"Hmph!" Ningbo didn't answer at all.

On the side, the chairman of the Glacier Empire Branch of the Foundry Association, the seventh-level casting division, took two steps forward, bowed slightly to the invited casting master of the Zhao family, and said, "Senior Brother Rong, I haven't seen you for seven years, presumably the junior brother has surpassed the elder brother!"

The words of the lifelong soldier caused an uproar at the scene. This person is actually the junior brother of the lifelong soldier? Moreover, even the lifelong soldier admits that he is inferior to this senior brother Rong, doesn't it mean that this foundry master surnamed Rong is at least a seventh-level forging division?

Rong Ku also returned the salute and said modestly: "Senior brother is polite! The junior brother is a little close in seven years, and he just obtained the seventh-level forger token half a month ago. The Zhao family invited the younger brother to come to the competition with a piece of extraterrestrial meteorite iron and millions of gold coins, and after the competition, the younger brother will come to visit the senior brother and talk about the old feelings!"

"Okay, good! The junior brother has a special competition, and also let the senior brother see the methods of the junior brother again!"

"Is it still comparable?" Ningbo interrupted the two with a cold face.

"The game will start soon!" Although Bi Shengbing thought that with his junior brother acting on behalf of the Zhao family, the Ning family no longer had any chance of winning, but this competition was related to the face of the Zhao and Ning families, and Bi Shengbing did not say much.

"Please follow me into the casting room, the relevant materials have already been prepared, and you can only walk out of the casting room after casting, otherwise you will be punished with abstention!"

For this competition, the emperor specially ordered people to build six casting rooms with bluestone in the square in front of the palace, and each casting room was guarded by elite soldiers outside the room, and at the same time, Zhao and Ning also sent people to monitor, and no one was allowed to enter or leave except for sending some food to the inside within seven days, so as to prevent someone from secretly changing weapons.

After all six people walked into the casting room, Bi Shengbing loudly announced: "Close the door! The competition has officially begun!"

Ning Lin walked into the casting and saw the familiar furnace, anvil, and hammer inside, and smiled slightly.

There was already a fire in the furnace, and there were five small cans on the table on one side, all of which were fire-boosting powders, not only fire fox bone powder, fire wolf bone powder, fire bear bone powder, and even fire finch feather powder and fire Jiao bone powder, which showed that the royal family also invested a lot of money for the competition!

By the stove were three iron rods, all of which were made of fine iron.

If you want to build a weapon, some people will even spend a few years to create a weapon in seven days, in addition to testing the ability of the foundry, the speed of casting is also very important. That's why the royal family will provide three original billets that have already been built for selection, reducing the time.

"Yao'er, let's get to work!" Ning Lin shouted, took off his shirt, revealing a strong muscle, and stood in front of the stove, the oil on his body reflecting the fiery red fire......
