Chapter 283 You Won't Be Shy Anymore, Will You?
After the first round of screening, there were only thirty-two alchemists left out of the original more than one hundred.
Excluding Li Yi's quota, only thirty-one people actually entered the next round.
At this time, the list of alchemists who passed the first round was also sent to the hands of Emperor Xia Hongwu.
"Liyue Sect has six participants, and four of them passed the first round. They are worthy of being one of the three righteous sects."
"There were three people from the Dao Tian Sword Sect participating in the competition, and all of them passed... It seems like they came here just for the first place!"
…
After reading all the lists, Xia Hongwu showed no emotion. For him, a balance between good and evil is the best state.
Now it seems that, with the True God Religion destroyed, the Righteous Way seems to be a little too strong...
"Father, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing Xia Hongwu's dazed look, Xia Yuyan couldn't help but wave her hand in front of him, trying to attract his attention.
"Hahaha, it's nothing!"
Xia Hongwu laughed a few times and avoided the topic directly.
"Yan'er, this alchemy conference is very exciting, and I am also looking forward to who will win the first place in the conference."
…
After the first round.
Only a quarter of an hour later, the second round of competition began, and there were only thirty-two tables left on the field.
On every table, there is the same elixir.
"First of all, congratulations to the young alchemists from all over the world for being able to advance to the second round of the competition!"
The referee Liu Xuan stood in the most conspicuous position and said in a loud voice.
"As for this second round of competition, only ten people will be screened out and advanced to the next round of competition!"
As soon as this statement came out.
Suddenly, the alchemists who advanced to the second round were stunned, because this meant that more than half of the people would be eliminated!
Before everyone could finish digesting it, Liu Xuan dropped another bombshell.
"In the second round of the competition, all contestants need to refine a fourth-grade ice elixir, and then hand it over to me for evaluation!"
What is Ice Spirit Pill?
This is a kind of elixir that can prevent you from going crazy when you break through. It is extremely difficult to refine.
Moreover, the Ice Mist Lotus required for refining is also extremely difficult to pick!
The Daxia court could be considered wealthy if it could produce thirty-two copies at once.
"I'll go, you actually have to refine the Ice Spirit Pill in the second round. Isn't this too difficult!?"
"It doesn't matter, just leave it to fate!"
"Haha! It's just an ice elixir. It's just an appetizer for me!"
…
Among all the contestants who advanced, some were happy and some were worried.
Some fourth-level alchemists have never even refined ice spirit pills, which is almost equivalent to giving up directly.
at this time.
In the box of Daotian Sword Sect.
After Jiang Feng learned that he needed to refine the Ice Spirit Pill in the second round, he felt a little nervous.
"Youwei, have you ever refined this kind of elixir?"
Su Youwei was about to speak, but An Qiaodie beat her to it.
"Elder Jiang, Junior Sister Youwei must have refined this kind of elixir. Master, he likes to teach some unpopular elixirs the most."
However, what Jiang Feng and An Qiaodie didn't expect was that Su Youwei shook her head after hearing this.
His fair face was slightly red, and he stammered: "That...I have never refined the Ice Spirit Pill!"
Jiang Feng: "???"
An Qiaodie: "!!!"
These words immediately shocked everyone present. How could Su Youwei, who had never refined Ice Spirit Pill, pass the second round?
Only Qian Sande, who was listening, smiled and said nothing.
"Senior brother, and Senior Sister An, I actually have no problem!" Su Youwei said hurriedly, "It doesn't matter even if you haven't refined this kind of elixir before!"
Jiang Feng was a little surprised. Could it be that even if Youwei had never refined this kind of elixir, she could still use it on the spot?
This is too scary!
An Qiaodie seemed more worried than anyone else, "How could it not matter! Youwei, you have never refined an ice spirit pill before!"
In her heart, she actually regarded Su Youwei as her sister.
If Su Youwei can win first place, she will definitely be happy, and Master and the others will also be happy.
"Sister An, I..."
Su Youwei didn't know what to say about junior sister, so that An Qiaodie would believe her.
Just then.
Jiang Feng put his hand on her shoulder and said in a trusting tone: "Youwei, senior brother, I believe in you!"
"Haha, plus me!"
Qian Sande, who had been watching from the side, also laughed and said.
Su Youwei's eyes wet, and she said in a firm tone: "Brother, senior, I will definitely pass!"
"Well, that's good!"
An Qiaodie looked at the harmonious scene in front of her and suddenly realized that she seemed to have underestimated Su Youwei's strength.
By the time she came to her senses, Su Youwei had already shown a confident smile.
"Sister An, let's go!"
"Okay, okay..."
…
After the two left, Ouyang Jing also came in from outside.
Just now, under Jiang Feng's instruction, he explained to the referees that Li Yi would not participate in the next round.
As for the reason, it was directly that Li Yi was not feeling well.
The moment Ouyang Jing returned to the box, he suddenly started working as a matchmaker.
"Elder Jiang Feng, I wonder what your impression is of Her Highness the Princess?"
Jiang Feng's eyes were originally on Su Youwei, but he didn't pay attention to the princess.
Now, after hearing Ouyang Jing's question, he turned his eyes to the viewing platform.
Xia Yuyan, who was on the viewing platform, happened to be looking at Jiang Feng at this time, and the two of them happened to look at each other.
"Your Highness... seems familiar!"
Jiang Feng recalled carefully, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her.
Ouyang Jing didn't care, and said with a smile: "Elder Jiang Feng, His Majesty has been worried about the princess's marriage. In my opinion, you are quite suitable!"
"Not interested!"
Jiang Feng refused without thinking.
Although Xia Yuyan's appearance is definitely a pretty and lovely girl.
But becoming a son-in-law is definitely the worst choice for him, because once that happens, there will be many more constraints.
"This..."
Ouyang Jing was stunned. Isn't this too direct?
Qian Sande looked at this scene and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha!! Elder Jiang is really a man of temperament!"
...
On the viewing platform.
Xia Yuyan was originally looking at Jiang Feng's figure, but suddenly Jiang Feng also looked in her direction.
Although the distance was far, she still felt like she was being electrocuted.
Xia Yuyan blushed and lowered her head in panic, "Did Brother God find me!?"
"It's over, he's still so handsome!"
Xia Yuyan's abnormality naturally attracted Xia Hongwu's attention, but he didn't know what happened.
"Yan'er, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Father, I'm fine!"
Xia Yuyan shook her head quickly, and when she looked at Jiang Feng again, his eyes had already moved away from her.
"Hehehe... This princess is so beautiful, Brother God is not shy too, right?"
