Chapter 138 Scene 1
An hour passes quickly.
On the square, flames burst forth.
Tens of thousands of people gathered together to practice qigong, a scene that was still shocking.
Outside the square, onlookers watched the people practicing in the square, pointing and commenting, their voices rising and falling continuously.
On the chairman's platform sat Dwarf Tribe Chief Wēi Yuán and ten elder judges of the Dwarf Tribe.
These ten elder judges included Dwarf Elder Wei Hai and Law Enforcement Elder Wei Zhuang.
Wei Yuan sat in the middle of the rostrum, looking at the scene of many contestants practicing their skills below, nodding and smiling from time to time, and finally his eyes stopped on a figure practicing in the center of the square.
This figure of alchemy was naturally the most talented person in the dwarf tribe, Wei Han.
Watching Wei Han's smooth and flowing technique of refining equipment, Wei Yuan couldn't help but nod his head in satisfaction.
"Great Elder Wei Hai, your technique in refining equipment has improved again compared to two months ago!" Wei Yuan turned his head and said to Great Elder Wei Hai sitting beside him.
Wei Hai also focused on his son, hearing this, he withdrew his gaze from his son and smiled: "For these two months, I have been urging this kid to work hard day and night. This time, the first place in the alchemy competition must not fall into someone else's hands!"
A dwarf elder beside him laughed and said, "Wei Han is the most talented genius of our dwarven tribe. He's first, naturally, without any suspense. His Water-Fire Fusion Technique has already been cultivated to the sixth level, right?"
All the dwarven elders around looked at Wei Hai.
"Wei Hai smiled and said: 'In these two months of bitter practice, this kid has already broken through to the seventh layer!'"
"The Seventh Floor!"
The dwarves' elders all heard this and were stunned, then their faces showed surprise and they dared not believe it.
Including Dwarf King Wei Yuan and Law Enforcement Elder Wei Zhuang.
"The Seventh Layer!" Wei Yuan's smile was radiant: "This kid, really gave us a big surprise! Hundreds of years ago, our dwarf tribe's elder who cultivated the Water and Fire Fusion Technique only reached the seventh layer after fifty years. And this kid has only been cultivating for over ten years!"
"Not bad, Seventh Layer, Realm of No Water or Fire!" An old dwarf said: "Even I must admit that I am inferior to him!"
"When Wei Han arrives, he will reveal the seventh layer of Water and Fire Fusion Technique, which is sure to shock the strong men of other tribes. Our Dwarf Tribe's face will be greatly increased!"
"I propose that Wei Han be the first to undergo the trial. At that time, announce him as the next Clan Master's successor and confirm the next Clan Master's successor!"
The dwarves' elders were abuzz with discussion.
Wei Hai sat there, secretly pleased with himself, a big smile spreading across his face.
Wei Han is his son, and his son has achieved so much. Having gained recognition from the elders, he naturally feels proud in his heart.
Wei Yuan heard the discussion of the elders, then nodded and smiled: "Alright, this time Wei Han got the first place in refining equipment, at that time I will announce that Wei Han is the next successor to the position of tribe leader, and after a few years, I will pass on the position of tribe leader to him!"
Just as the dwarves' elders were discussing on the podium, a clear and crisp sound suddenly came from below.
This sound was particularly jarring amidst the crackling of the flames, and everyone couldn't help but pause in surprise. Turning their heads to look, they saw that on the square below, a dark golden tripod had shot up into the air, surpassing all the other participating tripods. Next, the mouth of that tripod shone with great splendor, humming incessantly. A green-edged long sword flew out from within the tripod.
A green long sword flew out, in the high air. Bringing up a series of dazzling sword edges.
"Someone has actually succeeded in refining their equipment!"
"It seems that this long sword is at least a high-ranking Xuan-grade!"
"Awesome! Who is this blue-haired young man?! I thought the first one to successfully refine it would be a dwarf, didn't expect it not to be!"
"Seems like it's Bi Fang, one of the four young masters of the Wasteland!"
Bi Fang stood there, listening to the surrounding gasps, discussions, envy, and enjoying the worshiping eyes of the crowd, with a proud smile on his face.
This green-edged long sword was naturally forged by him.
He is the first person to successfully refine equipment in the first game!
"Not just the first, but also the second, third, and all the way to the last one are mine!" Bi Fang's hands lightly popped, and then that green-edged long sword fell onto the chairman's platform with a clang.
Bi Fang stood up with his hands behind his back and said, "This is the long sword I've refined. Please inspect and judge it."
The elder of the dwarf tribe who was presiding over the ceremony had an unnatural look on his face, this Bi Fang was simply too arrogant and domineering, that appearance, clearly said that their dwarf tribe was nothing more than that.
However, he also knew Bi Fang's identity, so he didn't dare to scold him. With a wave of his hand, the long sword was drawn in front of him, and with a light flick of his finger, a series of sword hums came from within the sword. The humming sounded like a dragon's roar, like a phoenix's cry, pleasant to the ear.
The dwarf elder's eyes narrowed, took a deep breath, and apparently, he was greatly surprised. After a while, he raised his head, with a complex expression, and announced: "First-grade earth product, enter the next round of competition!"
"Low-grade goods!"
"It's actually the Earth Grade Initial Stage! This Bi Fang is indeed formidable, as rumored, he has cultivated his father Donghai Whale King's Thousand Layered Wave Hand to the seventh layer!"
"In about an hour, he refined a low-grade spiritual artifact. Even if the Master Artificer couldn't refine it, Bi Fang's ability in refining artifacts was absolutely at the level of a Grandmaster Artificer!"
The people around were amazed.
One of the Four Young Masters of the Wasteland, Bi Fang, heard the elder of the Dwarf Tribe announce the result and the surrounding crowd's astonished discussions. His face became even more complacent, under everyone's gaze, he proudly raised his head, puffed out his chest, and strode out of the square, then waited for the next match.
"Congratulations, young master! Congratulations, young master!"
"Congratulations to our young master for taking first place! Our young master's divine skills surpass all!"
As soon as Bi Fang came out, the numerous Hai tribesmen who had been waiting outside the square immediately rushed forward, overjoyed and flattering him incessantly.
But what does this have to do with the Refiner and the Divine Ability that surpasses all?
That Bi Fang listened to the flattering words of his subordinates, not minding that their flattery was excessive, with a bright smile and constant nods. Just as he was about to leave the square, another loud rumbling sound suddenly erupted.
"Look, someone else has successfully refined their equipment, it's a long spear!"
"This gun's muzzle looks like it's at least a top-tier mystic-grade!"
Bai Fang was shocked, turned his head to look, and saw a tripod furnace rising into the sky. A long spear flew out of the furnace, and below it stood a dwarf.
"Young master, this dwarf is said to be the most talented genius of the dwarven tribe, Wei Han!" a merfolk stepped forward and said.
"What if the dwarves have the strongest innate abilities? They still fall behind Young Master, and Young Master is the first!" another sea tribe member said.
At this time, on the host stage, the dwarf elder identified the long gun that Wei Han had refined.
"First prize in the preliminary round, advancing to the next match!"
Also belongs to the initial stage of the earthly rank!
Bi Fang looked at this result, sneered and left with his subordinates from various sea tribes.
"Four Young Masters of the Chaotic Sea? The son of the Whale King of the Eastern Sea?" In the square, Long Jing Tian looked at Bi Fang's departing figure, a smile playing on his lips.
(This is the 4th update, and there will be a 5th one tonight, probably around 10:30!)
