Chapter 217 Tianlan 4 Yun vs. Guangteng 4 Gongzi (2)
The rules of the competition are very simple. Each of the twelve contestants must refine a pill that represents their highest level. Each contestant has three chances. If they fail three times, they will be given zero points. If three furnaces of pills are refined, they can choose one furnace to participate in the evaluation. In the end, the one with the highest score will be the champion.
"This is really a fight between dragons and tigers! Mu Yun was able to attract Dan Lei when he was at the fifth level, and now he is said to have advanced to the sixth level. Isn't his strength incredible? Moreover, it seems that Mu Yun has defeated Xiao Wenyi before!"
"You mean you are more optimistic about Mu Yun? I think Xiao Wenyi has a better chance of winning. He advanced to the sixth level earlier than Mu Yun, and his realm has long been stable, while Mu Yun may still be in an unstable stage. Under the high pressure of the competition, he is likely to perform poorly. Moreover, it is said that although Xiao Wenyi lost to Mu Yun before, it was because he did not use his full strength. In order to prepare for this game, he also invited two ninth-level great alchemists to accompany him for special training!"
"Wow! The Xiao family is indeed very powerful. With two ninth-grade great alchemists as sparring partners, perhaps only the Xiao family can do it!"
"Of course not! So, Xiao Wenyi has a better chance of winning! But then again, Mu Yun is really amazing - hey, no matter who wins or loses, we'll just watch the fun!"
"Hey, are you really just here to watch the fun? I heard that you bet 3000 low-grade spirit coins at the Shengbao Casino on Xiao Wenyi to win!"
"Hahaha, you just love to expose other people's secrets. Yes, I am more optimistic about Xiao Wenyi, so I just want to join in the fun! Didn't you also bet on Mu Yun to win?"
……
"Haha, these people really know how to play. What about 'Tianlan Four Clouds' and 'Guangteng Four Young Masters'? They have arranged our two families clearly. Even if we want to be low-key, we can't!" In the VIP viewing area, Tianlan Principal Yuan Wuhen was chatting with Vice Principals Huang and Li beside him. It is said that parents look after their own children best, and Yuan Wuhen is no exception. In his opinion, in today's Dandao competition, the three representatives of his family - especially Mu Yun are the best. If they win, they will definitely support Mu Yun! (It is said that he has secretly placed bets on all the students in his school. This is the intention of the head of the family.) The other people also smiled and responded, but they had their own thoughts in their hearts. For example, Vice Principal Li hoped that Guangteng Mingyuan could win, so that he could slap Yuan Wuhen's old face; and Vice Principal Fang, who also had a bad relationship with Yuan Wuhen, stood on the side of Tianlan this time. He just had different opinions from Yuan Wuhen, but he also loved his school, his students and his career.
"Old Yuan, I heard that you bet on your own students, be careful or you will lose everything!" On the east side of the VIP seats, Guangteng Mingyuan's current principal Le Jun shouted at Yuan Wuhen. Both of them had hot tempers and always had a fight when they met. As expected, facing Le Jun's blatant provocation, Yuan Wuhen immediately got angry, jumped up from his seat, pointed at Le Jun's nose and started to curse:
"You old fool, be careful with your words. Be careful not to trip over small stones when you go out, or choke to death on the air when you open your mouth!"
"Hmph! What did you say! How dare you curse me like that? You are the old man who won't die. If you don't accept it, let's have a fight today. I am not afraid of you!" Le Jun did not give in at all. Then he rolled up his sleeves and confronted Yuan Wuhen. However, Yuan Wuhen was tall and fat, while Le Jun was short and thin. Judging from his appearance, Le Jun's momentum was a little weaker.
"Okay! You two old guys are over a thousand years old, how can you be less stable than a three-year-old child! You fight every time you meet, every year, you two are not tired, but we are tired of watching. Sit down quickly, the game has started, don't affect the children's performance!" The one who spoke was Wang Chong, an old friend of Yuan Wuhen and Mu Yun's teacher. This old man has a lot of experience. In terms of seniority, he is actually the elder of Yuan Wuhen and Le Jun. Only when this old man spoke did the two of them calm down. They all sat down angrily, staring at each other and trying their luck.
The others were already accustomed to the behavior of these two old naughty boys. They all smiled and then turned their eyes back to the game scene that had already begun.
The four groups of twelve contestants each brought out their own alchemy furnaces, with flames of various colors burning in them. Among them, Xiao Wenyi's alchemy furnace and alchemy fire attracted the most attention - for no other reason than that their grades were the highest among the twelve. In particular, the alchemy furnace was actually a top-grade spiritual treasure!
The twelve people have different appearances, different looks and temperaments, but they have one thing in common, that is, they are all very young - the oldest is only 26 years old, and the youngest is only 20 years old. And Mu Yun is one of the youngest. The "Four High Schools" are the top of the pyramid of higher education institutions in this world, and the top students in the "Four High Schools" are equivalent to the leaders of the young generation in this world. When most young people in their twenties are still racking their brains for how to pass the first or second grade spiritual master title, the lowest level of the twelve people present is close to the fifth grade.
The twelve young contestants' hands fluttered like butterflies, forming various complicated and mysterious high-level seals, and quickly put the materials into the furnace one by one. After different materials entered the furnace, the fire would change accordingly, some changing the intensity and temperature, while others could change the color and brightness! Hundreds of millions of spectators from all walks of life and outside the venue stared at the twelve people's actions, all impressed by their superb methods, and occasionally shouted in admiration or surprise. Watching these twelve people refining the elixir was like appreciating a beautiful art performance. Even laymen who knew nothing about the way of alchemy would not feel bored at all, but would be attracted by the wonderful scenes.
"Oh my god, these twelve young men are too strong! Compared to them, I am nothing!" At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties said to the people around him with emotion. He is a well-known alchemist in his circle. Now he has advanced to the third rank and can earn a lot of money with his skills, so that he and his family can live a well-off life. But now, after seeing the superb alchemy skills of those contestants, he realized how big the gap is between him and the geniuses.
"Hey, he is a genius! How many geniuses can there be among the billions of people in this world? We are just ordinary people, so don't compare with him! Just live your own life, at least you are not as good as the best, but better than the worst!" His friend was obviously more open-minded. Then he added with envy: "My eldest son is 21 years old this year, one year older than Mu Yun, but he hasn't even reached the threshold of a first-grade alchemist! How can he have a son!"
"Hehe, you said he is a genius, but you compare your son to him! But who do you think will win in the end? Old Xu, Old Ji, you two are the best at alchemy and have the best vision among us, so you two can tell me!" The third middle-aged man asked. The fourth-grade alchemist named Old Xu stroked his beard and said slowly:
"Well... our alchemy is all-encompassing, including not only personal level, but also the environment of the universe, as well as the hardware conditions, and even luck. Among these twelve people, the highest rank - that is, the most outstanding ones are definitely Mu Yun and Xiao Wenyi, and their family backgrounds are all excellent. They are people favored by luck. As for the hardware conditions, I think Xiao Wenyi's alchemy furnace and alchemy fire are slightly better. So, logically speaking, Xiao Wenyi has a greater chance of winning. Old Ji, what do you think?"
