After the bearded man held the rune and showed it around, he looked at the Forge Hall apprentice with an angry expression, as if he had been treated unfairly.

The expression on the face of the Forge Hall apprentice barely changed, and he looked at him coldly, and said, "Only six of your seven runes were drawn by yourself, and one of them belonged to someone else, and we will never tolerate this kind of cheating of yours." ”

Hearing his words, the expression of "Bearded" changed drastically, as if it was a cat that had been stepped on its tail, and immediately blew up its fur and roared: "What kind of cheating, these seven runes are all drawn by myself, how can you slander me with red mouth and white teeth."

You clearly miscalculated the number of runes I drew before, and now that I have shown it to everyone, you deliberately said that I stole other people's runes because of your face.

Even if you're a member of the Foundry Hall, you can't slander others so casually!"

He seemed to be deliberately trying to make things bigger, and he shouted higher and higher, so that everyone around him would feel that the apprentice of the Foundry Hall was wronging him.

Pei Ku, who was looking at this, did not have the slightest anxious look on his face, but smiled with interest, and did not interfere with anything, just looked at the performance of his apprentice.

Hearing this, the apprentice shouted loudly, frowned, and said, "You don't have to disturb the synagogue loudly here, since I say that you cheated, I will definitely come up with evidence, and I will definitely not wronged others."

Do you think that if we steal the drawn runes from others, we won't be able to see them if we don't catch them?

Let me tell you, all the rune paper you use is made by us in the Foundry Hall ourselves, and it is numbered for this competition.

Each contestant receives a number from one to nine, but you don't notice it for a while.

Once you get the runes, you can use them in any order, so the runes on the runes numbered from one to nine are different for each person.

Your third rune, which has a rune number five on it, and a rune number five on the seventh rune, are duplicates, apparently because you took one rune from someone else who left.

Because the other party uses the rune paper in a different order than you, you don't have the same runes drawn on the same numbered rune paper, and we can see it at a glance. ”

Hearing the other party's words, "Bearded" suddenly looked surprised, looked at the rune paper in his hand for a long time, and finally found a number slightly darker than the original paper in the corner of the rune paper.

Because this number is written very small, and the color difference is not large, if you don't distinguish it carefully, you can't see it at all.

At this time, the other contestants also noticed this, and suddenly looked at the "beard" with a strange look.

The "bearded man" also noticed this, and after looking around, he looked at the apprentice again, his face was still full of disbelief, and said, "Hmph, even if what you just said is reasonable, what can these runes be numbered?"

It's entirely possible that you made a mistake in your preparation and confused the numbers of the two runes, and when they arrived at me, they were like this. ”

Speaking of the back, "Bearded" seemed to feel that his words were very reasonable, and his momentum was raised again.

The apprentice glanced at him with a stern gaze and snorted coldly, "Hmph, since you still have to quibble, then I will talk about other evidence."

In fact, we have long expected your cheating method of stealing other people's runes, and we have been prepared for a long time.

The ink in the inkstone in front of each of you has been added with a special powder.

This powder has no effect on the effect of the rune ink, it can only serve one effect, that is, the two runes with different amounts of powder cannot be blended with each other, and all of you have different amounts of special powder added to the rune ink.

You can try it, take out your two No. 5 rune papers, and use the rune ink in your rune inkstone to paint the two runes separately, and there is definitely one rune that the rune ink cannot be blended. ”

Hearing the apprentice's words, the face of the originally imposing "bearded" suddenly turned red and white, and his eyes also flinched a little.

"What, don't you dare to paint it?"

The apprentice was yelled at by him for a long time, and he was also a little angry in his heart, and continued to persecute him.

"Bearded" gritted his teeth, but still did not believe in evil, copied his talisman pen, and painted the talisman ink on the talisman paper for the second time.

There were already several contestants gathered next to him, and they were standing by and watching.

Sure enough, as the previous apprentice said, on one of the two rune papers, the rune ink was quickly integrated into the previous rune.

However, these runes were not drawn with aura, and they couldn't stabilize the image, and quickly dissipated from the rune paper, leaving only the runes drawn before.

On the other piece of paper, the rune ink that was painted on the back could not be integrated into the previous rune ink at all, and everyone could clearly see that there was a clear gap between the two inks.

"How...... How so!?"

When the "bearded man" saw this phenomenon, he was finally completely dumbfounded, and his original momentum had long disappeared without a trace.

The surrounding contestants all looked at him with great disdain at this time, after all, they all passed the competition by strength, and now suddenly someone wanted to rely on despicable means to blend in with them, which would naturally make them feel disgusted.

"Now that you're out of the picture, please get out of here, I don't think anyone is welcome here for cheaters. ”

The apprentice said coldly at the "beard" in front of him.

"Bearded" no longer dared to look at the people around him, his face was flushed, he lowered his head and gritted his teeth and walked out of the hall quickly, he knew that he was embarrassed and left home today.

After the interlude, the other apprentices quickly recorded the first match, and then moved on to the second round.

After Pei Ku gestured to the apprentices next to him, they immediately took a bunch of rune paper again and distributed it to everyone, but this time there was only one piece of paper in front of each person.

Ye Li looked at the rune paper in front of him, the color of this rune paper seemed to be much lighter than the ordinary rune paper.

The remaining dozen or so contestants also noticed this, and their faces showed puzzled expressions.

Pei Ku saw that the rune paper had been distributed, so he spoke: "These rune papers are specially prepared by us for this competition, and it has a special effect, that is, the rune ink that has not formed runes can only be maintained on it for three snaps of fingers.

In general, there are five snaps of fingers to draw spells, and rune paper can keep the unformed rune ink and aura alive for five snaps of fingers.

And now this rune paper gives you only three snaps of your fingers to draw a foreign rune!"
