"Yes, I felt his strong sword intent. He is definitely a sword cultivator. Judging from his age, he must be no more than twenty years old... I only know one young sword cultivator of this age, and that is Situ Lie. But He is obviously not Stuart Lie."

Li Fu said cautiously.

"The entire Beizhou is so big. It is normal for young sword cultivators from other places to come here. Besides, our Yancheng is also quite famous in the land of three mountains and five ridges. In addition, the Alchemist Competition attracts a lot of attention. Don't do it. What a fuss.”

In the guest seat, there was a middle-aged man sitting in Da Ma Jin Dao.

After hearing this, he also grinned and didn't care much.

When Li Fu didn't come in earlier, he and the rickety old man were drinking tea.

The old man's name is Su Zhi. He is the owner of this venue. He also owns several business groups under his command and is extremely wealthy.

As for the middle-aged man, he is the lord of Yancheng and his name is Qiu Wu.

"Give him whatever he wants. As long as it's not too much, you'll satisfy it. It's a good relationship. But remember, you must find out his name clearly."

Su Zhi waved his hand, "City Lord Qiu and I still have something to discuss, please step aside for now!"

"yes!"

Li Fu looked respectful.

"Is the matter confirmed?"

After Li Fu retreated, Su Zhi placed the tea cup on the table, a cold look flashed in his narrow eyes.

It looked calm, but in fact, two fingers kept tapping on the table.

It can be seen from this small movement that he is actually extremely irritable in his heart.

"good."

Qiu Wu looked as usual.

"Isn't there any more room for maneuver?"

Su Zhi was very unwilling and asked a question.

"No, the major forces are really determined this time."

Qiu Wu sighed deeply, "Once they unite, those who sit on the fence like Boss Su have to be careful. After I heard about this, I came to tell you as soon as possible. I also hope that you can In this turmoil, stay safe!"

"I always feel that things shouldn't be rushed in such a hurry. After all, Xiaoyue Dynasty is a huge behemoth, and it's not that easy to capture it."

Su Zhi shook his head and subconsciously clenched his fists.

Just yesterday, the entire three mountains and five ridges of power came together to discuss.

The entire Beizhou, the best and most prosperous territories, were all occupied by the Xiaoyue Dynasty.

And they have three mountains and five ridges, and their geographical location is simply too far apart.

Limited territory and poor resources.

Even so, the Three Mountains and Five Ridges have always been able to compete with the Xiaoyue Dynasty in terms of high-end combat power.

To put it simply, with less resources than the Xiaoyue Dynasty, they had a draw!

Fewer resources have led to more intense competition.

After years of fierce competition, it is not completely without benefits. For example, their talented children are generally much better than Xiaoyue Dynasty.

This strength is not a talent, but a nature!

Since childhood, there have been few cultivation resources. If you want to become stronger, you must learn to snatch them.

Think of yourself as a wolf, a beast.

Whatever you do, you have to face huge competition.

Over time, their geniuses became wild and wild.

In the Xiaoyue Dynasty, the experience of all this was not so profound.

With limited resources, the pie that each major force can share is destined to become smaller and smaller.

Without cultivation resources, natural resources, and treasures, development is doomed to be slow.

The major forces in the land of three mountains and five ridges began to show their dissatisfaction - we occupy the second among the three first-class sects in Beizhou; the other forces are no worse than your Xiaoyue Dynasty. The key is, we are far away The inferior cultivation resources are always on par with you!

Why do we have so little territory and so few resources despite our three mountains and five ridges?

And you, the Xiaoyue Dynasty, are content with the status quo, but are much more unrestrained than us?

Therefore, the major forces began to discuss privately and prepare to join forces to start a war!

It is obviously impossible to directly capture the Xiaoyue Dynasty.

Their core demands are territory and resources.

As soon as the proposal came out, it immediately received responses from all major forces.

The reason why Qiu Wu came here today was to warn Su Zhi to stop the trade with the Xiaoyue Dynasty for a while to avoid being caught in the war.

Su Zhi felt reluctant in every possible way.

Most of his income comes from trade with the Xiaoyue Dynasty.

Once a war begins, his losses will be huge!

But this is a general trend that cannot be resisted by human beings!

"It's useless to say anything now. Do you still remember why the major forces joined forces to send the sect's geniuses to the ancient battlefield of the Holy Realm a few days ago? Normally, they would be reluctant to do this, but they gritted their teeth , I still made up my mind!”

Qiu Wu sneered, "Since then, they have made all plans. The so-called war cannot be started rashly. First, they will hold a Beizhou genius battle to test the level of Xiaoyue Dynasty's genius. "

"If those geniuses are strong, it means they have underestimated their opponents and need to re-strategize. If they are vulnerable, it means that the Xiaoyue Dynasty is falsely prosperous, strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and is vulnerable!"

"well."

Su Zhi sighed, his expression changed.

In terms of status, he, Su Zhi, is a businessman and is not qualified to interfere with the decisions of those big forces.

All we can do is take it one step at a time.

"Don't worry, Boss Su, your losses are only temporary. If you can gradually encroach on Xiaoyue Dynasty's territory, your business will only grow bigger and bigger."

Qiu Wu took back his hand and grinned.

Su Zhi raised his eyebrows, "City Lord Qiu seems to be a little too comfortable. I remember that your son and daughter are still practicing in the Shenwu Sect, right? The war is about to start, and it will not be good for you."

"Boss Su, don't embarrass me. Let me tell you clearly that I am just an ant in the face of the general situation. The real ones who are leading the battle are Shenwu Sect, Lingyun Sect, and Potian City."

Qiu Wu spread his hands helplessly, then put down his teacup and said, "Thank you, Boss Su, for the hospitality. Qiu will take your leave!"

After Qiu Wu left, Su Zhi slapped the table with gritted teeth and shouted, "This piece of shit only collects money and doesn't do anything. If this batch of pills can't get out, at least 30% of it will be lost!"

After venting, he closed his eyes.

After all, is something going to change?

I have long heard that those forces have been grudges against the Xiaoyue Dynasty for a long time.

This outbreak is bound to be spectacular!

"That's all. The worst case scenario is to collect these pills first. Once a war breaks out, I'm afraid the price will be even higher."

A cold look flashed in Su Zhi's eyes, "However, it can also be seen from this matter that Qiu Wu is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. He is as timid as a mouse and is definitely not worthy of close friendship!"

…

…

The alchemist competition has finally begun.

At the beginning, it was the qualifiers.

There are dozens of alchemists who came to register for the competition.

Ten people must be selected from these people first, and then these ten people will compete.

On the stage, dozens of alchemists were competing in their methods of refining medicine.

The so-called medicine refining technique is the most basic thing, and it is also the most difficult thing.

A good technique can help you avoid many detours during the process of refining medicine.

Among them, the fastest one was a young girl. Her mind was clear, her eyes were shining brightly, and when her jade hands were flying up and down, she actually divided the front of a pile of medicinal materials.

Then, he devoted himself to refining medicine.

She offered a medicine cauldron and added medicinal materials in different proportions and orders.

At the same time, flames bloomed in his hands, controlling the fire with mental power.

When refining medicine, heat is the most important.

One point more, one point less, and the refined elixir will be quite different.

"These on the stage are all Xuanpin alchemists. This Yancheng really deserves its reputation!"

Xu Ran's eyes flashed with excitement.

Especially this girl, she looks pretty, has a straight nose, and her hair is neatly tied up.

Wearing a black training uniform, she made her look dashing and easily attracted attention.

"The school girl is indeed strong enough. Look, she is going to win!"

"In this alchemist competition, I think there is a high probability that the school girl will win the championship."

Many young people stood in the audience, cheering and cheering.

Their eyes were hot, and they obviously had a lot of thoughts about the girl in their hearts.

Sure enough, after a short competition, the girl was the first to enter the ten-person list with an absolute advantage.

The other alchemists were not downcast either.

After all, the girl's talent is one of the best in the entire Yan City.

There is no shame in losing to her.

There were cheers in the stadium, and it was obviously very popular.

The girl smiled and jumped off the stage happily.

Looking at the black training clothes she is wearing, they look similar to those of the young people in the audience.

In front of their bodies, there were four words sewn with golden silk thread - "Danwu Academy".

"How is the time?"

A tall figure came with a hearty laugh.
