Chapter 1031 - The Dark Canyon (3)

Old Man Zao, who felt President Lu's gaze, looked up and smiled at President Lu and the others before going back to what he was doing.

President Lu was so depressed that he wanted to scratch the wall.

After Old Man Zao finished what he was doing, he started refining his equipment.

Old Man Zao placed the materials into the furnace that had already been preheated. After the materials melted, it was time to purify, shape, and finally temper!

In less than half an hour, a crystal-clear bracelet was completed. At this moment, the storage equipment of the other weapon refiners had yet to be completed.

When the judges saw this unbelievable scene, their jaws dropped again. Damn! What kind of speed was this! It was clearly the last to be refined, but it was the first to be completed, causing them to be on tenterhooks. What's more, even though the disheveled old man had already refined the equipment, their hearts, which were used to waiting until the last moment, could not rest at ease. What was going on!

Old Man Zao ignored everyone's gazes and extinguished the fire. Then, he carried the bracelet to the judges' table and handed it to President Lu.

President Lu took the bracelet from Old Man Zao and sighed. This bracelet was really refined beautifully! It was crystal clear without any impurities. Hehe! He didn't expect this inconspicuous Old Man Zao's aesthetic standards to be first-rate.

One had to know that in addition to having superb refining skills, beauty standards were also quite important for an outstanding artificer. It could be said that neither was indispensable!

President Lu held the bracelet in his hand and observed it carefully. However, Old Man Zao was getting impatient.

"President Lu, my storage bracelet is completed. Can I leave now?" Old Man Zao couldn't help but ask.

"Leave? The competition isn't over yet! You're leaving?" President Lu said in disbelief. Old Man Zao had something so important to do that he actually wanted to leave even though the results weren't out yet!

As there were only 150 artificers in today's competition, they planned to produce results on the spot. All the artificers should know about this! Therefore, he really didn't expect that this old man would leave even though he knew that the results would be released immediately after the competition!

"Yes, I'm tired. I want to go back and rest early," Old Man Zao said awkwardly.

"Sleepy?" The corners of President Lu's mouth twitched a few times. He looked at the old man as if he was a monster and thought to himself, Could it be that sleeping is more important than results in this old man's heart?

Even though he couldn't believe what he was hearing, in Old Man Zao's heart, sleep was really more important than results. Who asked him to be so confident in the storage bracelet he refined!

Unless they secretly did something to prevent him from getting first place, there was no way he could get first place. However, with Mo Yan and Liu Feng around, the probability of these people wanting to defame him was very low.

"Yes, I didn't sleep well last night," Old Man Zao said very casually.

"Uh! But you can't leave. This is a competition after all. You can't break the rules," President Lu said helplessly. He kept telling himself to calm down! He had to calm down!

"Alright then!" Old Man Zao said with some grievance. Then, he returned to his territory with extreme reluctance and closed his eyes…

After a while, the sound of snoring came from the direction of the Old Man Zao.

Immediately, several black lines involuntarily slid down the foreheads of the judges and the artifact masters in the competition…

Liu Feng, who was sitting at the judges' table with Mo Yan, couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Old Man Zao's actions.

"Hehe!" Liu Feng chuckled.

"Is it very funny?" Mo Yan rolled his eyes at Liu Feng helplessly.

"Isn't it funny? This old man is the first artificer who dares to sleep during the artificer competition! Hehe! I like such an extraordinary person!" Liu Feng said proudly. Seeing Old Man Zao so casual, his impression of this old man became even better.

"Hmph! How dare he sleep at such an important occasion and even snore! Such imprudence! Such a person is not worthy of participating in our Artificer Association's competition at all. He should be disqualified!" At this moment, Yin Rumei, who had been sitting at the side without saying anything, spoke up, her beautiful face still filled with disdain.

"Vice President Yin, can I say that you're jealous of Hong Guo? Even if this old man is indecent and you want to disqualify him from the competition, your disciple won't be able to win the championship. Therefore, why do you have to be a villain and let others benefit!" Liu Feng said mockingly.

Yin Rumei was too selfish. Even though the two of them seemed to have a conflict now, Ruhua was raised by Yin Rumei after all. Therefore, no matter how angry Yin Rumei was, she also hoped that Ruhua could get good results. Unfortunately, Ruhua was disappointing. Ever since she schemed against Leng Xiaoyu, she didn't know what was going on. She had performed badly in two consecutive matches and couldn't even be ranked in the top ten now.

"You…" Yin Rumei's anger immediately soared to the highest point after being provoked by Liu Feng. However, before she could flare up, she was suppressed by Mo Yan's words.

"We're in a competition now. Please pay attention to the occasion, Vice President Yin," Mo Yan said lightly.

Yin Rumei had no choice but to suppress her anger when she heard Mo Yan's words. However, it didn't feel good to have fire nowhere to vent. However, she also knew that with Mo Yan around, he wouldn't let her lose her composure at such an important occasion. She also knew that she had to control it, so she could only sulk alone.

Three hours passed quickly. The 150 artificers on the arena completed their refinement. Next, they waited for the results.

The judges divided the work and worked together. In less than half an hour, the results of the blacksmiths were out. After that, they handed the results of their evaluation to Mo Yan and Liu Feng for the final review. As for Yin Rumei, she was ignored by the judges.

After Mo Yan and Liu Feng checked some of the equipment, they nodded in satisfaction. Then, President Lu announced the results of all the artificers on behalf of the Artificer Association.

Old Man Zao did not disappoint and once again took the first place. At the same time, he also won the championship with the first place in all five rounds of the competition. There were definitely no more than 10 people in the history of the artificer competition who won with such a complete victory.
