Chapter 348: The fifth-level alchemist talks about the appeal of elixirs

Xu Feng turned around and saw Master Lu Zhenren and several of his fellow disciples standing not far away, nodding towards him.

"Master, seniors."

He walked over and saluted and said hello.

"Well, Feng'er, how are you? What was the result of the preliminary round?"

"Fortunately, my disciple lived up to his command and won the first place in the sixty-fourth group. This is the rematch token. Master, please check it."

Hearing his disciple say this, Master Lu suddenly smiled, and his pride almost overflowed from his heart. He took the token with a smile, and looked at it over and over again with admiration, as if this was not a token, but some rare treasure.

The few Jindan Masters standing next to him were angry and funny when they saw Master Lu's behavior.

"I know you have accepted a good apprentice with outstanding talent, but you don't need to be so arrogant, right? It's not like we haven't seen the rematch token before, so put it away quickly!"

Bao Zhenren covered his forehead and said angrily. He really didn't expect that his fellow disciple was over 600 years old, and his temperament was like that of a child. If he had a good thing, he would show it off to death.

"Well, Lao Bao, I know you are jealous that I have taken on such a good apprentice, but I am not angry at all, not angry at all."

After returning the rematch token to his apprentice, Master Lu turned to look at Master Bao and said proudly.

"Ahem, okay, you two should stop bickering and think carefully about what will be tested in the next rematch. Judging from the change in the format of the preliminary round, I guess the rematch will probably change as well."

Hearing the two of them bickering, Ma Zhenren, who had recruited Xu Feng before, coughed to interrupt their argument and changed the subject.

"You can't guess, you can't guess at all, because there is no precedent to follow. Before the competition started, no one expected that the competition method would change."

A third-level mid-level alchemist with a sixth-level golden elixir rubbed his chin and thought for a while before speaking first.

"No matter how it changes, Lao Bao, Lao Ma, you don't have to worry too much.

Since it is an alchemy competition, it must remain true to its roots. In the end, it is alchemy that matters. Lao Liu and I are probably at a loss. It is a blessing to enter the semi-finals. It is impossible to get a ranking. "

Lu Zhenren stood next to Xu Feng, crossed his fingers and turned his wrist, and said slowly.

"What Lao Lu said is good, but it's good to be able to enter the semi-finals. Lao Zhang and Lao Wang didn't even pass the preliminary round this time. When they met them just now, they turned around and left. They were probably afraid. Shameful."

Hearing the seniors chatting happily, Xu Feng also intervened.

"Master, Senior Liu, the promotion ratio in the preliminary round is ten to one. It's already amazing that you two can enter the semi-finals."

What he said was originally a comforting word, but he didn't get the slightest response. After quietly observing the expressions of several Jindan seniors, he secretly thought something bad and asked cautiously:

"Master, did my disciple say something wrong?"

"Xu Xiaoyou, the preliminary round of our third-level group is different from that of your second-level group. The promotion rules are six out of ten, with a total of more than 160 people participating, and the top 100 will be selected to enter the semi-finals."

Liu Zhenren opened his mouth to explain, telling him the differences between the two different competitions.

Xu Feng was also quite embarrassed at the moment, and secretly cursed himself for being stupid. The number of third-level alchemists was already scarce. If they followed the competition method of their second-level group, there would only be a dozen or so people left after the preliminary round. What would be better than the semi-finals?

However, he was still sincerely happy to learn that his master successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

Master's death is approaching. This may be the last time for him to participate in the 'Ten Nations Alchemy Competition'. If he can't even enter the semi-finals, wouldn't he regret it for the rest of his life?

At this moment, he looked at the surging crowd around him, suddenly thought of something, and sincerely asked his master:

"Master, my disciple has a question..."

"ask!"

Lu Zhenren waved his hand and interrupted him simply and roughly.

"The semi-finals will be held in the square. I guess there are no monks in Canglanfang City who don't know about this news."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, then pointed at the crowds of people around him and continued:

"Then I don't understand why so many monks are gathering here? Even if you want to watch the fun, there's no need to crowd into the square, right? How will the next game proceed?

Another problem is that in the preliminary round just now, those monks who were eliminated hurriedly left the competition venue.

I thought they all went back home, but when I got here, I found that it didn't seem like that. They all came here, as if there was something special here that attracted them.

It didn’t look like I was just here to watch the fun, I obviously had other purposes. "

Hearing Xu Feng ask several questions in succession, Lu Zhenren smiled slightly, patted his shoulder, and then explained:

“If you had asked me this question before the preliminary round, I wouldn’t have been able to give you an answer, but I can answer you now.

After the preliminary round of the third-level group, the senior fourth-level alchemists who were responsible for supervising our exams revealed such news.

After the preliminary round and before the start of the semi-finals, Senior Shen, the current Supreme Elder of the Extreme Alchemy Sect, who is half-step into god cultivation and is also a fifth-level low-level alchemist, will come to the square to explain the alchemy to all the monks.

This news had already been spread by the Ji Dan Sect when we participated in the preliminary round, and the whole city was immediately shocked.

Just think about it, listening to a fifth-level lower-grade alchemist talk about the way of alchemy is a blessing that ordinary people cannot have in several lifetimes. After hearing the news, nearly half of the cultivators in the market spontaneously gathered here in order to see the style of the fifth-level alchemist.

Seeing that more and more cultivators gathered, the square could not accommodate them. Finally, the Jidan Sect sent people to surround the square and only allowed the alchemists to enter the square, which maintained the situation.

If left alone, the number of cultivators you see now will be several times more than it is now. "

Xu Feng could no longer listen to Master Lu's rambling explanation. The words "fifth-level lower-grade alchemist" were still floating in his mind.

The fifth-level alchemist corresponds to the spiritual cultivator, who is the ceiling of the world's combat power. He couldn't imagine that a cultivator who had not yet broken through to the spiritual cultivator could actually break through and become a fifth-level alchemist. This shocked him.

Swallowing his saliva, Xu Feng spoke with difficulty:

"Master, what did you say just now? Senior Shen is a fifth-level lower-grade alchemist. How, how can this be..."

"You want to say how this is possible, right?

Let me tell you, Senior Shen's alchemy skills are not only the best in Song State, but also in the entire Tianling Continent.

The Alchemy League once gave an evaluation of Senior Shen's potential, which was the highest nine stars. There are only three nine-star geniuses in the Alchemy League. "

Master Lu's words shocked Xu Feng again. He became anxious at the moment. Like other alchemists waiting here, he wanted to see the legendary alchemy master.
