Shinto Dantei

"Go back to the dean, there are many strong enemies in this alchemist competition, but I will definitely try my best to win first place!"

The girl, that is, Shi Nian, showed a cute smile.

The visitor was a tall middle-aged man, Qiu Wu, who had been drinking tea with Su Zhi in the box earlier.

Qiu Wu is not only the lord of Yancheng, but also the dean of Danwu Academy.

Under his hands, many alchemists were trained.

The reason why he has a close relationship with Su Zhi is because the interests involved are too great.

There are many Xuanpin alchemists in his academy, and they will refine a large amount of elixirs for every competition.

These elixirs consume materials from the Su Zhi Chamber of Commerce, and according to regulations, they are naturally left to the Chamber of Commerce.

In this industry, although materials are valuable, they are not a big deal.

What is truly valuable is the craftsmanship of the alchemist.

Otherwise, no matter how much materials you hoard, you won't be able to turn them into elixirs.

The two teamed up to hold the Alchemist Competition under various names. It was said to be a test and training for those students. In fact, all the elixirs refined during this period would be taken by Su Zhi's business group and sold at high prices. To the Xiaoyue Dynasty.

This is a huge chain of interests!

Then why did Qiu Wu come specifically to warn Su Zhi this time?

Because very early on, the Three Mountains and Five Ridges established many rules. No matter any chamber of commerce, they could never sell scarce resources to the Xiaoyue Dynasty. This would weaken themselves and strengthen others in disguise.

In order to obtain high profits, Su Zhi always ignored the rules.

Privately, he had a trade line with the Xiaoyue Dynasty, which lasted for more than ten years.

However, the war was about to start, and he had no choice but to stop this line.

The losses are absolutely astronomical!

"Back then, I was very optimistic about your talent. You have accumulated a lot of experience in the academy. If you can win the first place in this alchemist competition, it will be a transformation for you!"

Qiu Wu smiled.

At this time, I had no parents since I was a child, so I was admitted to Danwu Academy through my own efforts.

The key is that she is very talented in refining medicine, and she will definitely be able to become a holy pharmacist in the future!

In Qiu Wu's view, Shi Nian is a cash cow that can continuously bring him profits.

Of course, she must be protected.

"I will not let the dean down!"

Shi Nian nodded heavily and became determined.

Half a day later, all the alchemists had finished competing, and the ten alchemists who were finally selected for the semi-finals were selected. They stood side by side on the stage, each with a calm expression.

At this time, Su Zhi walked out from the backstage with his hands behind his back.

As soon as he appeared, he immediately aroused cheers from countless spectators in the audience.

Su Zhi is a legendary figure in the land of three mountains and five ridges. He started from scratch, and in just a hundred years, he actually made his business group one of the top three. He has strong financial resources, which is not much worse than those of the big forces.

"Here, present the reward!"

Su Zhi smiled lightly and stretched out his hand.

Suddenly, a group of maids filed in. They were wearing cheongsam and had graceful figures.

There are various treasures placed in the trays in their hands.

Present them one by one.

“This time, our rewards are unprecedented.”

Su Zhi laughed loudly and said, "Of course, the requirements for you will also be increased. What follows will be three days of high-intensity medicine refining. This is not only a test of your skills and foundation, but also a test of your mental strength. , a test of will, only the truly tenacious can have the last laugh!”

"For three days?"

"High-strength refining medicine?"

"So exciting!"

Upon hearing this, many viewers suddenly became excited.

Simply sounding it makes people feel that it is very enjoyable.

The whole audience was excited and felt that the rules of this competition were very interesting.

Only Qiu Wu frowned.

Su Zhi, Su Zhi, you are so greedy!

The high-intensity alchemy that lasted for three days was like not treating the alchemist as a human being.

Do you want to take advantage of the fact that the war has not yet started, collect a batch of elixirs, and then raise the price and resell them at a high price?

It’s really yours!

The alchemists on the stage all looked shocked and looked at each other.

Does this mean refining the elixir for three consecutive days?

They have never experienced such a test in the academy.

At that moment, a young man with an arrogant expression shouted, "It's really ridiculous. We alchemists always focus on quality, not quantity. Such rules will only lead to bad consequences. If we insist on doing this, I, Ning Feng, will withdraw from the competition." !”

"hiss!"

As soon as these words came out, many viewers gasped.

Ning Feng, he is the most talented alchemist among the nearby cities.

He was born into a family of alchemists, and has a very deep understanding of alchemy. Coupled with his outstanding talent, he has reached the pinnacle of Xuanpin alchemist at the age of less than 20 years old. He is only one step away from breaking through and becoming a saint. Alchemist!

There seems to be only one word difference between Xuanpin and Shengpin, but in fact their status is very different.

For others, it is difficult to break through from Xuanpin to Saint.

But for Ning Feng, it's just a matter of time.

This time, the showdown between Ning Feng and Shi Nian was also very exciting!

Both of them have the possibility of winning the championship.

Most of the audience actually came for the two of them.

If Ning Feng chooses to withdraw from the competition, only Shi Nian will be left to stand out from the crowd. What else will there be to watch?

Su Zhi smiled, not angry. "Ning Feng, my dear nephew, don't rush to make a decision. The Alchemist Competition is a test of various fields. Quantity is important, but quality is equally important. Moreover, this time I have invested a lot of money. Each of the ten of you will have a reward. The higher the ranking, the richer the reward!" Ning Feng frowned. He did not continue to speak, but waited for Su Zhi's next words. As if he guessed what Ning Feng was thinking, Su Zhi clapped his hands and the red cloth on the tray was immediately unveiled. Spiritual medicine, natural treasures! At least they are a thousand years old! "Ivy? Such a long section?" "Is this the ghost fire grass? It's really rare." "Such a big thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is worth a lot of money, even about to surpass the Xuan-grade elixir, right?" For a while, exclamations came one after another in the audience. Even Ning Feng, who had insisted on withdrawing from the competition before, was surprised when he saw these rewards. He was not surprised by these thousand-year-old spiritual medicines. Although the Millennium Spiritual Medicine is precious, he does have it.

The key is that everyone has this spiritual medicine, which means that the Millennium Spiritual Medicine is only the lowest level reward!

There are more to come.

As expected, Su Zhi snapped his fingers, and several more trays were opened.

"Is this... Lingyun Fruit?"

"Hiss, it is said that eating one Lingyun Fruit can significantly improve your mental power!"

"It's booming, Boss Su really spent a lot of money!"

The whole audience was boiling again.

Lingyun Fruit, whether it is a formation master, a pharmacist or a weapon refiner, they all crave this thing.

The reason is that this Lingyun Fruit is a fruit that absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon. After eating it, it not only has no side effects, but also can improve mental power.

It is well known how important mental power is to them.

This time, even Ning Feng began to be moved.

How did you say it?

It smells so good!

Su Zhi smiled calmly, and seemed very satisfied with the atmosphere on the field.

Amidst the screams, he signaled the maid to lift up the other two pieces of red cloth.

On top, two jade pendants were lying quietly, about the size of a thumb, emitting a faint chill.

"Xuan-grade magic weapon, Dingxin jade pendant, or two pieces?"

"This thing is more precious than Lingyun Fruit!"

"Boss Su is really all-powerful, can he get such a thing?"

This time, the venue erupted again.

In the box, Xu Ran saw this and curled his lips, "Lingyun Fruit, Dingxin jade pendant, these are precious in our Xiaoyue Dynasty, but far from being so exaggerated. Brother Chen, you see, so many Xuan-grade alchemists are very excited, which is enough to show that the cultivation resources of the Three Mountains and Five Ridges are indeed not rich enough."

Ye Chen did not respond, his eyes were fixed on the last tray.

His fists were clenched, and there was even a red light in his pupils.

Because the mysterious woman just said that her induction in her heart became stronger and stronger. If there is no accident, the Tao should be in that last tray!

"It seems that everyone has been overwhelmed by these rewards?"

Su Zhi smiled, "Don't get excited, the real highlight is still at the end, open it!"

The maid smiled, stretched out her jade hand, and took off the last piece of red cloth.

The whole audience stopped breathing.
