Chapter 238: Amazing Move
"This year, these disciples have good talents, much better than in previous years."
"There are sixteen who can refine third-level treasures. This is the strongest class I have encountered in recent years!"
On the judges' seat, Ye Zhishou looked at the information of the examinee in front of him and said with a smile.
"Yes, before the age of twenty, he can refine third-level treasures. If nothing unexpected happens, his future achievements will not be lower than that of a fifth-level technician."
"There are so many outstanding technicians. This is also the unique advantage of Qingyang Fairyland."
Dean Shen, with a ruddy face, took a sip of spiritual tea and said with a smile.
In his opinion, the fact that Tiangong Division has so many elite Tiangong Guards is inseparable from the training of Xuanyuan Daoyuan.
"This is also thanks to the good teaching of Xuanyuan Daoyuan!"
Ye Zhishou also said with a smile.
Both of them are seventh-level technicians, and they have been friends for many years, so they still have some tacit understanding with each other.
"Xuanyuan Daoyuan has indeed cultivated many talents."
"But this time, many of these Tiangongwei are from our Tianxia Daoyuan."
The patriarch of the He family, who had narrowed his eyes, smiled and said.
In addition to being the patriarch of the He family, he is also the dean of the Technical Department of Tianxia Daoyuan.
In recent years, Tianxia Academy has made great progress in technical skills, and he has also made a lot of contributions.
"And among the sixteen disciples who have refined third-level treasures, three of the top five are from Tianxia Daoyuan."
"This year, there are five Tianwei quotas. It is not easy for the cultivators of your Xuanyuan Daoyuan to get two."
The patriarch of the He family laughed proudly.
Hearing this, Dean Shen, who was originally smiling, couldn't help but frown. In recent years, Tianxia Daoyuan has made a lot of efforts to compete for students.
It also played a lot of tricks in secret and privately robbed many disciples of Xuanyuan Daoyuan.
He was also quite disdainful of the methods of Tianxia Daoyuan.
But what the patriarch of the He family said was an indisputable fact.
In recent years, Tianxia Daoyuan has indeed made rapid progress in terms of skills.
Even among the top five disciples in this year's Tianwei assessment, three of them are from Tianxia Daoyuan.
If they get three of the five Tianwei places, the reputation of Xuanyuan Daoyuan will be ruined.
Especially He Yunshan of the He family. This boy has amazing talent in refining weapons. At a young age, he has mastered the He family's "Thousand Weapons Art" and has a Thousand Flame Spirit Body, which is a unique advantage.
This time, he has the highest voice to win the Tianwei champion and ranks first.
Of course, this boy almost always became the final champion in the skill competition between Xuanyuan Daoyuan and Tianxia Daoyuan in previous years.
His strength is there.
It is difficult for others to compete with him.
In addition, Bai Jing and Lu Yi are also very strong.
One ranks second and the other fourth.
The two cultivators from Xuanyuan Daoyuan, Wu Huan and Lin Hao, are also very strong, but it is difficult to defeat He Yunshan and Bai Jing.
"Although the strength of this group of Tiangong Guards is good, they are too conservative and their future achievements will be limited!"
"Among the sixteen, only one dared to choose the test treasure offered by the Tiangong Division."
"At this age, he doesn't even have this courage. Even if he becomes a Tiangong Guard, he is just like this."
The burly Qiao Daojian played with his bracelet and said with a slightly disdainful look.
After hearing this, the other four people thought of what these sixteen talented Tiangong Guards chose to refine.
As his eyes swept over.
Sure enough, he found that the sixteenth Tiangong Guard chose to refine the Triple Sword.
"Zhou Ling, fifteen years old, in the early stage of foundation building, how come I haven't heard of this little guy before."
Ye Zhishou said with a smile.
Whether he can become a Tiangong Guard is of great significance to the Tiangong Guard.
Choosing to refine a treasure that he is familiar with is also a rule set by the Tiangong Division to allow the talents of the cultivators to be fully displayed.
Therefore, most Tiangong Guards choose to refine treasures that they are familiar with, which can not only show their own talents, but also ensure the success rate.
This is understandable.
Of course, in order to allow the cultivators to fully display their talents, they also provide treasures for refining and increase the difficulty.
Let the courageous cultivators dare to challenge.
After all, the path of cultivation is like sailing against the current, and it is impossible to be safe in everything.
Only with the courage to move forward can one be fearless.
"I know this little guy Zhou Ling."
"He is my Zhou family's son-in-law."
"Not bad!"
The head of the Wang family also saw Zhou Ling's information.
Although he was a little dissatisfied that Zhou Ling did not ask for his opinion on marrying Wang Xin.
But now Zhou Ling is Wang Xin's husband, and he is also half a member of the Wang family.
At this age and cultivation level, he was able to refine a third-level treasure, which also surprised him.
The last time I looked at Zhou Ling's information, I didn't mention that he could refine a third-level treasure. The speed of improvement was too fast.
This is not considered to be a loss of face for the Wang family.
So, he still felt it necessary to explain to everyone.
As for Zhou Ling's choice to refine the Triple Sword, in his opinion, he probably knew that it would be very difficult for him to defeat others with his cultivation.
That's why he chose this way, to get extra points.
But how could the Triple Sword be so easy?
Of course, considering Zhou Ling's age, perhaps this is just a test to accumulate experience.
In this way, next year or the year after, he may be able to become a Heavenly Guardian.
After all, at his age, he can still participate for four years.
"I didn't expect that he is the son-in-law of the Wang family."
"The head of the Wang family has a good eye!"
"This guy is brave and interesting!"
Taoist Qi said with a smile.
Hearing this, the head of the Wang family couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He also understood Taoist Qi.
He has an arrogant personality and amazing talent. Even Ye Zhishou and Dean Shen may not take him seriously.
Why would you speak for this guy Zhou Ling?
"If you dare to choose to refine the Triple Sword in the early stage of foundation building, I'm afraid it will be a failure."
"I know I can't win by refining other treasures, so I might as well give it a try."
"It is true that cultivating the Tao sometimes requires courage, but this choice is more unrealistic!"
The head of the He family smiled calmly.
Among the current batch of Tiangong guards, He Yunshan, a direct descendant of the He family, ranks first. What Taoist Qiao said was nothing more than a mockery of He Yunshan's lack of courage.
Future achievements will be limited.
With He Yunshan's talent and the resources of the He family, he believed that He Yunshan would have no problem becoming a seventh-grade weapon refiner in the future.
It is even possible that the eighth grade will lead the He family to one step further and become one of the top ten families in the Tao Alliance.
"It's indeed good. At such an age, he can refine a third-level treasure weapon, and he is also a casual cultivator."
"Now he is still an inner disciple of Xuanyuan Taoist Academy in Qingyun Immortal City!"
Seeing Zhou Ling's message, Dean Shen's eyes lit up and he praised it aloud.
Regardless of whether Zhou Ling can refine the Three-layer Sword.
But his experience is enough to show that Xuanyuan Taoist Academy can cultivate outstanding disciples.
In recent years, the representatives of the casual cultivators of Tianxia Taoist Academy have been Lu Yi, and the representatives of the children of aristocratic families have been He Yunshan.
The two of them were quite powerful, and both were able to outdo the disciples of Xuanyuan Taoist Academy.
In recent years, this is also one of the reasons why Xuanyuan Taoist Academy has lost many high-quality students.
As for Zhou Ling, who was born as a casual cultivator and was still relatively young, he had a heaven-level foundation and was able to refine third-level treasures.
And everything was achieved only after entering Xuanyuan Taoist Academy.
This is exactly what the Taoist Academy vigorously promotes.
Why didn't he discover a disciple like Zhou Ling earlier?
"Haha, everything is good!"
"You can become a third-grade Tiangong Guard under the age of twenty, and you will be a pillar of the Tao Alliance in the future!"
"Whether you seek stability or take a chance, as long as you can become a heavenly guard, you will win!"
"As for the final result? Let's see how they perform!"
Ye Zhishou laughed and said.
It can be seen that neither Dean Shen nor the head of the He family is convinced by the other, and there is a hint of gunpowder in their tone.
Plus the unruly Taoist Qiao on the side.
He couldn't hold back in this situation, so he decided to have a good laugh and end the situation smoothly.
And with the melodious and thick bells ringing.
Ye Zhishou then stood up and said loudly, "This year's Qingyang Immortal Territory Heavenly Guard assessment has officially begun."
"Everyone who participates in the Tiangongwei assessment must abide by the assessment regulations."
As Ye Zhi's words fell, a mask of light condensed on the assessment stage for each contestant.
Separate them from other players.
With this mask, whatever happens during the refining process will not affect other players.
Zhou Ling was on the assessment stage.
Zhou Ling slowly opened his eyes, looking calm and calm.
He also did not expect that just because he chose to refine the Triple Sword, he would become the target of discussion by the five major judges.
You must know that these five people are all famous figures in Qingyang Immortal City.
If any one of them can be attracted by Dharma, the future will be bright.
Zhou Ling immediately opened the seal and took out the materials for refining the Triple Sword from the storage bag.
Lihuo gold essence, purple heart wood, Taiyi gold stone and Geng gold, etc.
Each material is level three, and there is only one copy.
It means a failure, then a complete failure.
Although Zhou Ling was very confident, he was not careless. He took out the materials and carefully observed them one by one.
Through [Intermediate Observation] and [Intermediate Analysis], analyze the properties, advantages and disadvantages of materials.
After confirming that there was no problem, he took out the Ziyang furnace cauldron and placed Qi in front of him.
Put these materials into the furnace cauldron one by one, then condense the Qianyang True Fire, and first temper them with fierce fire.
[You are running the spirit flame tempering material, the six-turn change +1, the tempering material shrinks +2]
As the Qianyang True Fire enveloped the materials in the cauldron, a prompt appeared on the panel. Zhou Ling felt that these materials quickly began to melt after coming into contact with the spiritual flames.
Originally, Qianyang True Fire was a fourth-level spiritual flame, and it had great advantages in refining third-level materials.
And with the [Sixth Transformation] talent activated, the hardness of these third-level materials is now only that of second-level high-grade materials.
This speed is naturally extremely fast.
A moment of intense fire quenches true gold.
However, there is a lot of material, and it doesn’t melt completely so quickly.
However, as the difficulty of refining materials becomes smaller, Qianyang True Fire is not consumed much.
"Fourth level spiritual flame!"
"A person in the early stage of foundation building actually has a fourth-grade spiritual flame in his hand!"
"Is this little guy really a casual cultivator?"
Dean Shen will pay extra attention to Zhou Ling.
He had a plan in mind, and he was going to make Zhou Ling the ambassador of Xuanyuan Taoist Academy.
This little guy is perfect in every way.
But what surprised him even more was that when Zhou Ling took action, it was a fourth-grade spirit flame.
Generally speaking, a foundation-building monk would never be able to withstand the fourth-grade spiritual flames.
And experts will know if there is one as soon as they take action.
Zhou Ling's technique of manipulating spirit flame refining materials is definitely not low level.
He could feel that although the flames in Zhou Ling's cauldron were blazing, the control of the fire was extremely good.
This level of fire control is absolutely perfect.
"Tsk tsk tsk! How did this kid do it?"
"Fourth-grade Spiritual Flame, no wonder he dared to choose the Triple Sword, interesting!"
Qiao Daojian's eyes lit up.
As soon as Zhou Ling made a move, he could see that this kid was quite powerful.
He was also looking forward to whether he could refine the Triple Sword.
He looked down on the other so-called geniuses on the field who did not even have the courage to choose the treasures of the Tiangong Division for assessment.
In his opinion, if he was young and did not have the spirit of progress, he would not be able to achieve anything big.
"Fourth-grade Spiritual Flame with Fire Attribute?"
He Family Master frowned slightly as he watched Zhou Ling control the Spiritual Flame.
With He Yunshan's physique now close to the peak of foundation building and the Thousand Flame Spirit Body, he now only mastered a third-grade mid-stage Black Obsidian Flame.
How did this kid, who was in the early stage of foundation building, master the fourth-grade Spiritual Flame like this?
Of course, even if he mastered the fourth-grade Spiritual Flame, in his opinion, with Zhou Ling's cultivation, he would never be able to refine the Triple Sword.
So he looked at other people again.
The head of the Wang family was even more surprised. He remembered that the last time Zhou Ling was in the Wang family, the spiritual flame in his hand was only the third grade.
But it has been less than half a year, and this is the fourth grade spiritual flame?
You know, the growth of a spiritual flame is extremely long, and some may not grow to the first grade for decades.
Especially from the third grade to the fourth grade, it not only takes a long time.
And the spiritual flame must be of Xuan grade or above.
This really shocked him.
If he knew that the reason why Zhou Ling's Qianyang True Fire could be improved so quickly was mainly because he absorbed the spirit of the Wang family's ancestral flame.
Then he would probably be even more unbelievable.
And Ye Zhishou smiled, and found another genius.
"Is this a fourth-grade spiritual flame?"
"Who is that person? He can control a fourth-grade spiritual flame with his foundation-building cultivation?"
"How is this possible?"
"And he is only in the early stage of foundation-building, am I right?"
"And he chose the extremely difficult Triple Sword?"
"Is this a sign of courage due to his skill, or ignorance and fearlessness?"
"This person is Zhou Ling, a third-grade Tiangong Guard from the Tiangong Division of Qingyun Immortal City!"
"But with this level of cultivation, how long can he control a fourth-grade spiritual flame?"
······
The blazing aura of the Qianyang True Fire in Zhou Ling's hand was obviously superior to the spiritual flames in the hands of other cultivators around him.
It immediately attracted the attention of the audience.
All the cultivators present knew that it was impossible for a foundation-building cultivator to control a fourth-grade spiritual flame.
Many people exclaimed and discussed, asking about Zhou Ling's situation.
After all, the Tiangong Guards who could participate in this kind of assessment were the elite among the elites.
But being able to control a fourth-grade spiritual flame caused quite a stir in the audience.
Zhou Ling was concentrating on refining the materials.
[You are using the Spirit Flame to refine the materials, the sixth transformation +1, the quenching material expansion +2]
Half an hour later, the prompt sounded.
All the materials in the furnace were melted, and Zhou Ling began to enter the spell, cooperate with the Spirit Flame, and shape the sword embryo.
As the spells for casting the sword embryo were entered into the furnace, the shape of the triple sword slowly condensed.
