Time passed bit by bit.
Lin Feng's miraculous halo in the first round no longer existed at this time.
After concluding that Lin Feng could not complete the three tests and enter the next round, everyone's eyes were already focused on the other craftsmen, especially Lady Nangong and Master Ouyang, who were also on the fifth level of Tōhoku's stairway. They were the most eye-catching. At this time, on the real-time rankings on the big screen in the sky, their names were high up.
At the top of the list was Madam Nangong. She had 3996 points, which was almost perfect.
After deducting four times the points coefficient, Lady Nangong's actual score in the first test was' 999 points'.
There was only one flaw.
Master Ouyang was slightly inferior. He was ranked second with a score of 3,800 points. Madam Nangong had already pulled away from him in the first round. But in fact, Master Ouyang's score was already good enough, but Lady Nangong was better. Except for the two of them, no other craftsmen had a score higher than 3500 points.
This included the other two craftsmen on the fifth level, Wang Bo and Bai Yunfei.
Wang Bo's face was slightly ugly, but his performance was somewhat abnormal, only getting 3448 points. Bai Yunfei was ranked fifth in the first round, but in this round, he had lost a lot of standards, only getting 2976 points, not even 3000 points. But the four of them still occupied the top four positions in the rankings.
The multiplier was quite important.
There was a world of difference between two times and four times.
On the fourth level of Tōhoku's stairway, even if you tried your best to get a full score, you would only get 2000 points.
As the rustling sound of the third hourglass continued to ring out, many of the Weapon Refiners who had completed the first test had already begun to consider whether they should advance or retreat. For example, Bai Yunfei had actually descended from the fifth level of Tōhoku's stairway to the fourth level, choosing to play safe.
In fact, the first test was already his strength, but it was still a thrilling advancement, and his weakness was that there was no need to take risks.
However, Wang Bo stayed on the fifth level, and more and more weapon refiners also chose to take the risk and enter the fifth level. There were originally only five figures on the fifth level of the Stairway to Heaven, but in the blink of an eye, there were ten people. It was foreseeable that when it came to the last test, perhaps …
There would be even more people taking the risk!
However, none of this had anything to do with Lin Feng.
At this moment, he was immersed in another test and comprehension.
No one noticed that as the third hourglass slowly emptied, Lin Feng had already passed the checkpoint of the third stage and entered the fourth stage!
It was the most difficult and time-consuming stage.
However, he still failed.
He didn't even get a single point in the fourth stage. However …
Lin Feng's name appeared in the fifth place on the big screen in the sky. His score was 2,400 points.
Lin Feng's four times ratio, plus his full score in the first three stages, had earned him a considerable amount of points. In a situation where most of the refiners had less than 2000 points, Lin Feng had squeezed into the top ten. But at this time, the fourth hourglass was already half empty.
There were less than four hours left.
It was quite tight.
"Hurry up and complete the condensing space test first, then try to control the fire space."
"There's still a glimmer of hope!"
With bright eyes, Lin Feng instantly stepped into the condensing space.
This time, he was full of confidence!
The fourth stage, complete comprehension!
…
"Wow, Master Lin Feng is in fifth place!"
"It can't be, right? When did he get up there? "
"It's useless. He only has 2,400 points. There's not enough time. Plus … Ah, Master Lin Feng entered the condensing space again?"
"How can this be? Didn't Master Lin Feng already get a score in the condensing space?"
"Who knows? Maybe he wants to keep improving."
…
Everyone was discussing and feeling curious.
However, they didn't care too much. Although Lin Feng was now in fifth place, he had already withdrawn from the list of ten candidates.
Because he really didn't have enough time.
"Lin Feng's comprehension is indeed outstanding." Lin Zhen sighed softly. He was probably the only one present who knew what had happened.
"If he had more time, he would definitely be in the top ten."
"What a pity."
"Is there no hope, Father?" Lin Zhan was surprised. "Isn't Brother Lin in fifth place?"
"It's useless. Lin Feng has too few points. Right now, it's just a matter of time. In another hour or so, his ranking will plummet." Lin Zhen said slowly, but he had seen through it very clearly. Others had three stages, but Lin Feng only had two. How could they compete?
Moreover, most of the craftsmen were now …
They still hadn't put in all their effort!
…
"President, the 'test' this time seems to be quite difficult." Ouyang Kuo looked at Wang Shi.
"The first three stages were easy, but I deliberately increased the difficulty of the last stage." Wang Shi smiled slightly, his eyes flashing.
"No wonder Wang Bo and Bai Yunfei were defeated." Ouyang Kuo said slowly.
"I hope that craftsmen will have a certain amount of adventurous spirit, but it's best if they have real talent in their bones." Wang Shi said seriously. "Therefore, I made the first three stages easy in hopes of rewarding the craftsmen who dare to enter the fifth stage."
"So that's how it is." Ouyang Kuo understood.
In the first three stages, the full score for the fifth stage was 2400 points, which was even higher than the total score for the fourth stage.
"But the last stage is very difficult. President hopes to test out the real talent." Ouyang Kuo's eyes flashed.
Wang Shi smiled and nodded.
He looked at the screen in the sky. At this time, as the fifth hourglass began to leak sand, the rankings were changing rapidly.
Many craftsmen had already finished two rounds of the test.
At the top of the list was a relatively 'unfamiliar' name.
Cheng Jin, total score '4620 points.'
But, in an instant, he was replaced by Lady Nangong.
7988 points!
Quite a shocking score.
Lady Nangong's performance was as stable as ever. After obtaining '999 points' in the first test, she also obtained a high score of '998 points' in the second test, far surpassing the other craftsmen and standing proudly in the first place. Although Master Ouyang appeared in the second place at almost the same time, he could not be compared to Lady Nangong at all.
Moreover, the gap was getting bigger and bigger!
As for Lin Feng, as the scores of the other cultivators in the second round of the test were tabulated, his ranking had already fallen to the middle.
The fifth place was just a passing cloud.
But …
Lin Feng was still continuing.
…
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" Light flashed.
In the condensed space, the score on the instrument continued to skyrocket without stopping.
880,888,900 … In the illusory space, Lin Feng maintained his original state. As his eyes flashed, the Flame of Rebirth was used together with Tōhoku. There was no contradiction at all. Every time they combined, the refinement was perfect, just like a textbook.
One correct demonstration could allow one to master it perfectly!
The Vast Star Eyes and Vast Star Eyes in his original state were extremely heaven-defying.
However, at this moment, there was no more sand in the fourth hourglass, and the fifth hourglass had already started counting down.
It was the last two hours!
…
The final sprint!
At this moment, on Tōhoku's stairway, it was intense and varied.
All the craftsmen were sprinting. Not a single person was on the third and fourth levels. Everyone was on the fifth level of Tōhoku's stairway. Because in the second test, a few craftsmen who took the risk had tasted the sweetness, so everyone saw hope.
In fact, most of the craftsmen had no other choice!
To be able to enter the second round, the craftsmen's skills were not too different. Other than Lady Nangong and Master Ouyang, the rest of the craftsmen's scores were not too far apart. The craftsmen who were temporarily in the third to tenth place wanted to maintain their rankings, and the craftsmen who were below the tenth place wanted to fight for the last time.
They had already reached the point where they could see red. Who would be willing to give in?
Whether they could enter the final round and obtain the ten precious spots depended on this fight!
Everyone's eyes were sparkling, and they felt their breathing quicken.
Right now, other than Lady Nangong and Master Ouyang, no one was sure who would obtain the remaining eight spots!
The competition was quite intense.
However, there was one person who was certain that he would be eliminated without a doubt.
That was Lin Feng.
With a score of 2,400, Lin Feng was now also ranked first. However, unlike Lady Nangong, he was ranked last. His score was even a full 1,000 points away from the craftsmen who were ranked 30th. The gap was not ordinary. In addition, there was only one score, so Lin Feng could not catch up at all.
The halo of the first round had completely dimmed in this round.
He was the first to be eliminated.
However, at this moment —
The scoreboard changed again!
"Someone completed it!"
"So fast? Who is it? "
"It can't be, Master Lin Feng!"
…
Accompanied by a flash of light, Lin Feng's figure immediately appeared on Tōhoku's Stairway to Heaven. Accompanied by the mixed exclamations of the crowd, Lin Feng's ranking had instantly risen on the big screen in the sky!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Ranking: 12th!
Total score: 4,000 points!!
"Hiss! ~" There was a series of gasps. Everyone was stunned.
"It can't be, right?"
"Condensing space, full score?"
"How is this possible? This … how did he do it!"
…
Everyone was completely shocked. One had to know that so far, no one had obtained full score in any of the second round tests. The highest score was 999 points by Lady Nangong and 998 points. However, there was still a small gap between full score and full score, but Lin Feng did it!
Moreover, he did it on the fifth level of Tōhoku's Stairway to Heaven.
The difficulty was even higher!
Most importantly …
Lin Feng's first score in condensing space was only a humble '36 points'.
What had happened in the past four hours?
…
"What a stubborn child." Wang Shi's eyes lit up.
"Yes, he would rather give up the competition to get a perfect score." Ouyang Kuo also nodded with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"A real blacksmith should be like this." Wang Shi was deeply impressed. "No wonder this child can achieve so much at such a young age and even make a perfect grade weapon in the competition. Although aptitude is important, the most decisive factor is the state of mind."
"Such tenacity and persistence are rare and commendable." Ouyang Kuo looked at Lin Feng and revealed a rare smile.
"It's a pity that he can't enter the last round, but …" Wang Shi's eyes lit up slightly as he looked at Ouyang Kuo. "It's a pity to miss such a good seedling. Old Kuo, I want to make an exception for him. What do you think?"
"President, you mean …" Ouyang Kuo sneered.
Wang Shi smiled lightly.
