Text Chapter 490: Starving

Three days later, early in the morning.

"Hi everyone, here is the 768th Kongshan Discussion of Swords Competition of Flying Star Realm broadcasted exclusively for you by Xuanguang Media. The lightning-type flying sword, which is far ahead, has been fully upgraded with a luxurious golden scabbard, welcome to order through the official website, and users who order during the competition will be exempted from courier fees and will be given a bunch of sword tassels refined by gold thread."

"Okay, now we have come to the largest floating mountain in the Kongshan area, 'Wanfeng Mountain'. This is the main venue for this year's Kongshan Discussion of Swords. It has the largest honeycomb-style refining room in the Flying Star Realm, which can accommodate thousands of people. The refiners are working at the same time, and the scale is huge and spectacular."

"Even though it's only 7:30 in the morning, Wanfeng Mountain is already very lively. As we all know, Discussion of Swords in the Kongshan Mountain is not only a competition, but also an annual exchange event for refining masters. All major refining families and sects will take the opportunity to hold new product releases. Meetings, tasting sessions, and trade fairs, many magic weapon lovers travel thousands of miles and come from various star regions.”

"This year, the competition in the empty mountain is unprecedentedly fierce. The two guests we have invited are also heavyweights. First, I will introduce Master Wuchen from Flying Star University. Master Wuchen is a senior expert specializing in sword refining. , is also a director of the Flying Star Realm Swordsmith Association, hello Master Wuchen."

"Hello host, hello audience."

"The next one, everyone must be very familiar with, is Ms. Bi Luoling from Chifeng Pavilion. Ms. Bi was the third runner-up in Kongshan Discussion of Swords last year, and she is also a new refiner of Hongxianliu. It is said that the latest generation of crystal Kai, the weapon system is developed by Ms. Bi, hello Ms. Bi."

"Hello Dapeng, hello audience."

"Okay, let's go straight to the topic. Excuse me, both of you said that this year's Kongshan Lunjian will be very exciting. What's the reason? What kind of highlights do you predict this year? Ms. Bi, please introduce it to the audience first. ?"

"Okay. Everyone knows that in the circle of craftsmen in the Flying Star Realm, there have always been two great families of craftsmen, the Mo family and the Huangfu family. Known as the thousand-year-old sword-making family, they have countless magical powers, profound foundations, and their strength completely surpasses many Above family and school."

"In the past 20 or 30 years, in the two great aristocratic families, a remarkable genius was born respectively, Mo Tianshui and Huangfu Xiaoya."

"Although the two of them have not participated in large-scale public competitions before, they have completely crushed their peers in the competitions within the family. Even the masters of the older generation in the family must be particularly cautious when facing them. There is only one monster-level genius in five hundred years!"

"The biggest highlight of this year's Kong Shan Lun Jian is, of course, the peak duel between these two 'refining monsters'!"

"I would like to add a few words. Except for Mo Tianshui and Huangfu Xiaoya, the other fourteen seeded players this year are also very strong. Zhou Xiaoyu from Xueyuan Jianzhuang and Long Yunxin from Lingxi Long's family were both from last year. With such a luxurious lineup, even an old man like me can't wait!"

...

On Wanfeng Mountain, there is a large-scale preparation area.

This is the last assembly point before the competition begins.

Every player here has a separate quiet room, which can also be in the public area. Use some simple diet to replenish your physical strength and soul.

Long Yunxin watched the pre-match live broadcast through the micro crystal brain, and heard the old professors of Feixing University mention his name. He couldn't help but secretly rejoice, and two blushes appeared on his face.

Xie An'an was wearing a staff uniform and stood behind her, but he was restless, poking his head towards the gate from time to time.

"Are you waiting for someone?" Long Yunxin frowned.

"No, no." Xie An'an was absent-minded. Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he let out an "ah".

Long Yunxin followed her gaze, and his heart trembled.

Such a powerful Reiatsu!

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but this year's Kongshan Discussion of Swords' two favorites, Mo Tianshui and Huangfu Xiaoya, walked in from both sides of the gate at the same time.

Mo Tianshui had thorns tied on his head and hemp shoes under his feet, like an ancient sword that had just been unearthed, with thick loess still clogged between the spirit lines, his slender eyes were extremely ethereal, as if he could see the other side. One world, one incredible sword spirit realm!

Huangfu Xiaoya was like a bundle of lightning.

She is not pretty, but she is definitely impressive, like bundles of restless electric arcs that are about to burst at any time, forcibly restrained together, condensed into a human shape, continuously, releasing explosive pressure to the outside world !

The arrival of the two monster-level geniuses completely boiled the preparation area, and many craftsmen rushed forward secretly, preparing to observe the two monsters up close.

Long Yunxin also took a step forward, she had some friendship with Huangfu Xiaoya, and was about to go up to talk to her, but Xie Anan rushed out like a little rabbit seeing a carrot.

Long Yunxin slapped his head, his little sister is a sword idiot, she can't control her legs and mouth when she sees a celebrity, please don't do anything weird, otherwise how can I have the face to meet my old friend? See?

Xie An Ansa ran wildly, seeing that he had already rushed in front of Huangfu Xiaoya, Long Yun secretly screamed that something was wrong.

Unexpectedly, Xie Anan turned a blind eye and passed by, completely treating Huangfu Xiaoya as air, but threw herself behind her, in front of a young man with disheveled hair and sleepy eyes.

If she had a big fluffy tail, she would definitely be shaking it vigorously by now.

"Master Li Yao, you are here. Did you sleep well last night? Your private quiet room is No. 2588. I will take you there in a while to make final preparations, but would you like to have some breakfast first? The fish porridge this morning is quite refreshing, and it has added sixteen kinds of natural and earthly treasures, which have the effect of calming the mind and will be very helpful for you to play later, may I send you a bowl?"

Long Yunxin was dumbfounded, what's going on?

Huangfu Xiaoya was also a little dazed.

As the most outstanding genius of the new generation of the Huangfu family, she is used to being sought after by others. When she saw this little girl stumbling over just now, she thought she was rushing to serve her, but unexpectedly, she ran past her!

Looking back, the young man behind him was very unfamiliar, and he didn't seem like a celebrity in the circle.

Huangfu Xiaoya frowned slightly, her face was expressionless, and she walked forward without turning her head.

Long Yun was extremely depressed. Seeing Xie An'an talking and laughing with Li Yao, he walked towards the seat, hurriedly followed, and sat down opposite Li Yao.

Li Yao grinned and said heartily, "Dragon Dao is friendly!"

"Li Daoyou... Good!" Long Yunxin said dryly, his suspicious eyes swept over Li Yao and Xie An'an, ten thousand people couldn't figure it out, just this guy, what is the mystery that turned Xie An'an into Like a little pug!

Li Yao yawned lightly, and slowly took off his gloves.

Xie An'an gave a strange cry, which startled Long Yun's heart again.

In the glove, there was nothing.

Li Yao took a breath of hot air into his palms, flexed his fingers easily, and took out a small light green bottle from his arms, took out some white ointment, and dabbed it on his hands carefully.

A strange strong fragrance came to the nostrils, making the corners of Long Yunxin's eyes twitch slightly.

Eighty percent of the kung fu of a craftsman is in his hands, and the maintenance of his hands is the most important thing.

A refiner's level of cultivation can be seen from the ointment he uses to maintain his hands.

The Lingxi Long family is best at refining medicine. Long Yunxin has known thousands of ointments used to nourish her hands since she was a child, and hundreds of ointments made by mixing natural materials and earth treasures. Name all ingredients.

But she couldn't smell it, what kind of natural and earthly treasures are contained in this ointment!

"How is it possible! I can even smell the unique ointments of the Mo family and the Huangfu family!"

"Could it be this guy's own secret ointment, which can use supreme supernatural powers to absorb all the ingredients of heaven, material and earth treasures, without leaving a single drop?"

"So, this guy is really a hidden master?"

In Long Yunxin's eyes, the small light green bottle instantly became mysterious, and he wanted to ask, but he was too embarrassed to open it.

Xie An'an didn't have so many worries, with a face full of admiration, he asked respectfully: "What a strange fragrance! Master Li Yao, is this your own secret potion? Does it have any miraculous effect on caring for your hands?"

"no."

Li Yao picked out another big lump and rubbed it on his hands, and said casually, "It's just the cream that I bought on the street. It costs three yuan and five dollars a bottle. It's very moisturizing."

"Cough cough cough cough!"

Long Yunxin coughed loudly and couldn't bear it any longer. He took a deep breath, stood up and said, "I'm sorry, Li Daoyou, I'll go to the quiet room to make the final preparations. I wish you... show your skills in the competition!"

After all, his steps were stiff, he stamped hard on the ground, and left quickly.

Xie An'an bit his lip, hesitated for a long time, but still summoned up his courage and said, "Master Li Yao, how can you use this cheapest cream to care for your hands?"

"We cultivators don't need to care about other aspects, but when it comes to the way of cultivation, we can't be sloppy at all!"

"For a master like you, these hands were tempered by Zihuan Sword Ants through untold hardships. They are priceless treasures. They should be maintained with the highest-grade ointment that contains heavenly materials and earthly treasures. You can use whatever cream you want. ...too messy!"

"Even if you are inconvenient for a while, the organizer also provides some basic nourishing potions. Anything is better than using cream?"

Li Yao was stunned for a moment, and laughed dumbly: "Where are you thinking, I'm not so poor that I can't even afford special nursing ointment, I don't use it on purpose, and let my hands starve for two days."

"Let your hands be hungry for two days?" Xie An'an was stunned.

Li Yao said: "Have you ever watched a cockfight or a dogfight? Do you know the secret to winning?"

cockfighting? Dog fighting?

Xie An'an was puzzled and shook his head.

"The secret to winning cockfights and dogfights is to starve them a few times before important matches."

"**, is the best stimulant."

"When a ferocious beast is hungry, the fierceness in its bones will be fully stimulated. Even if it faces an opponent several times its size, it will not hesitate to pounce on it and tear its prey to pieces!"

Xie An'an seemed to understand, but looked at Li Yao's hands, but couldn't help being full of fear.

Li Yao spread out his hands, spread his fingers apart, and said calmly: "At this moment, my hands are already starving." (To be continued.)
