The Three Elders' Surprise
Three of them walked towards the other three groups. A white-haired old man walked in front of the nine people in the first group.
No matter when, the competition between the top was what made people's blood boil.
Peerless Saint artifacts were the top weapons in the three thousand small worlds.
As for Void Immortal artifacts, they only existed in legends. In the three thousand small worlds, no one had heard of anyone who could refine a Void Immortal artifact!
At this moment, three elders were sitting on the main stage. They were dressed differently.
The one in the lead had a righteous face. His name was Xu Zhengqi, and he was the leader of the three great weapon elders of Armament Sect.
The one on the left was dressed in gray and had white hair. However, he gave off a sharp aura.
This person was called Qi Bufan, and he was the second elder of Armament Sect.
The last person was the third elder of Armament Sect — Leng Ruofeng!
These three people were the current leaders of Armament Sect. The entire Armament Sect could be said to be the gathering of the strongest artificers within the three thousand small worlds. Almost eighty percent of the divine weapons of various grades within the three thousand small worlds came from Armament Sect through Gold Embracing Pavilion, Dark Shadow Pavilion, and Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, the heads of the three great trade giants.
This was the strength of Armament Sect.
It was the same for Heavenly Pill Sect.
"Old Xu, although Xu Zhaomeng is your grandson, to be honest, this time, this kid will definitely give us a big surprise with a peerless Saint artifact!"
The third elder, Leng Ruofeng, was far from his name. He was not cold at all. Instead, he was more of a jovial person.
"Ruofeng, you're joking again. Little Meng has enough talent, but he's too young. He's only thirty years old this year. He still needs to train!" Xu Zhengqi laughed.
"You can't say that. I heard that Mu Yun's bone age is less than thirty. To us, she's a child, but she won the alchemy competition!"
The second elder was an extraordinary person. He was usually a man of few words. However, when the name Mu Yun was mentioned, he became talkative.
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it!"
"Yes!" Xu Zhengqi sighed and said, "I'm afraid this kid will become Little Meng's greatest opponent!"
The three elders sat upright in their seats and watched the match.
Of the nine contestants, only Gu Feiyang and Armament Sect's Xu Zhaomeng were people that Mu Yun had seen before.
Mu Yun was not very familiar with the others.
However, as he listened to the discussions around him, he gradually understood.
Standing on his left was Xu Zhaomeng, and on his right was Gu Feiyang.
On the left of Xu Zhaomeng was a young refiner with a smile on his face.
This person looked at Mu Yun with a face full of admiration.
This surprised Mu Yun.
That person's name was Meng Yun. It was unknown where he came from, but it was true that he was skilled in smithing weapons.
On the left of Meng Yun was a man of few words. He just stood there without speaking.
On Gu Feiyang's right was the genius of the Jin Clan, Jin Zhengyu.
On his right was Hua Wu, who had been speaking rudely to him.
"Hehe, you must be Mu Yun. My name is Meng Yun!"
While Mu Yun was secretly observing the others, a laugh was heard.
"Hello!"
"Hello, hello!" Meng Yun took a step forward and held Mu Yun's hand. He smiled and said, "I watched your competition a few days ago. Eighteen pill patterns. You're amazing. Actually, my lifelong wish is to become a powerful alchemist. Unfortunately, I took the wrong path and became a refiner. So, Brother Mu, can you accept me as your disciple?"
What?
Seeing Meng Yun's serious face, Mu Yun's eyes were filled with disbelief.
A Sacred Weapon Master who could refine Peerless Sacred Weapons wanted to be his disciple and learn alchemy?
When the others heard this, they were also stunned.
"Meng Yun, return to your seat!"
At this moment, the referee elder was about to announce the competition. When he saw Meng Yun's reckless actions, he could not help but laugh bitterly and yell.
"What's so amazing about that? If you yell at me again, I won't compete. You're making it seem like I care about the competition!"
“.....”
Hearing this, not only was the referee elder speechless, but even the surrounding audience was speechless.
What a character!
Others were racking their brains to get in, but he did. Yet, he dared to say that.
The referee elder did not dare to say that he did not want to scram.
Meng Yun was a genius that Armament Sect paid extra attention to. This person had risen from a small family and did not belong to any sect. He seemed to have had a fortuitous encounter that allowed him to reach where he was today.
If such a genius left because of his words, then the loss was not something that he could bear.
"If you can win against me, then I will consider it!"
"Alright, it's a deal!"
Meng Yun's face was filled with joy as he hurriedly returned to his seat. He looked at the referee and said, "Hurry up, I've waited for so long that the flowers have withered!"
The referee elder looked at Meng Yun speechlessly.
He was the one who had caused trouble, he was the one who had wasted time, and now, he was the one who was urging him.
"Hurry up and start, your IQ is really high!" Meng Yun urged again.
"Next, I will inform you of the rules. This time, Armament Sect will provide you with materials suitable for forging peerless rank saint artifacts. After this, all you need to do is forge the saint artifact that suits you the best according to the materials!"
The referee elder said seriously, "After all nine of you have refined them, they will be placed in front of the True Testing Stone to be tested and ranked. The highest ranked weapon will naturally be ranked first, understood?"
Ding ding …
Just as the referee elder finished speaking, a tinkling sound rang out. Meng Yun had already begun to pick up the various materials in front of him and began to observe them seriously.
However, the referee elder didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his impatient appearance.
Just as the referee elder finished speaking, the competition had already begun.
However, this time, because it was a competition of four different levels, most of the liveliness in the field had already gathered in this area.
In the Peerless Sacred Weapon Master competition, the Armament Masters who couldn't participate in the competition were watching the techniques and operations, while the martial practitioners were just watching the show.
After all, this was a grand occasion.
Mu Yun looked at the various metals in front of him and some rare crystals. He made up his mind and prepared to refine the sword.
In both his previous and current life, he used swords the most.
Hence, he naturally had a special liking for swords.
The Nine Elements Qi Gathering Sword that he had fused contained the Eternal Gold. However, the Eternal Gold wasn't among the materials given in this competition. If he used it and was found out, then he would be breaking the rules.
However, Mu Yun was confident that even if he only relied on the materials given, it wouldn't be difficult for him to refine a Peerless Sacred Weapon.
To refine a weapon, one needed to be steady. Steady control of the temperature of the furnace and steady control of the fusion of various metals.
The most difficult thing was the contract!
To an Armament Master, the contract was the most important thing to differentiate between the levels.
Gradually, the various Armament Masters began to prepare the materials in their hands and planned seriously.
Mu Yun was also very careful.
This wasn't a joke. If he was at Level Eight or Nine of the Yuxian Realm, a Peerless Sacred Weapon wouldn't be a problem for him. However, he was restricted by his level, so he had to be steady.
As time passed, some of the Armament Masters who were watching began to nod and exclaim in admiration.
Firstly, they were looking at the techniques of the participating Armament Masters. Secondly, they were looking at their meticulousness.
From this, they discovered the gap between themselves and the other Armament Masters.
Gradually, the Armament Masters began to refine the weapons in their hands one by one.
The next step was to inscribe the contract.
The contract was the foundation of an Armament Master. However, in this competition, there was naturally a guarantee that no one would be able to peek at the contract.
Everyone could only see the nine Armament Masters inscribing the contract on the Spirit Tablets, but they couldn't see the structure of the contract on the Spirit Tablets.
Only the judging elder stood behind the nine Armament Masters and watched them inscribe the contract seriously in order to ensure fairness and prevent cheating.
"Eh?"
When the judging elder walked behind Mu Yun, he suddenly exclaimed and was stunned.
The contract that Mu Yun inscribed was completely different from the others.
It wasn't the difference in the overall structure, but there were various traces on the floating curve of True Origin. It was obviously another kind of operation.
The judging elder thought that he was proficient in Armament Masters. When he saw Mu Yun's method, he couldn't help but be stunned.
He had never seen such a method before.
However, he was more curious.
If this was only a method that Mu Yun had created himself, then what kind of effect would the Sacred Weapon be!
"Tingyun, is there anything strange?"
A soul voice transmission came and caused Liu Tingyun to be stunned.
"Reporting to First Elder, this child's method of inscribing the contract is very different from ordinary people, so this subordinate finds it strange!"
"Oh?"
Hearing this, First Elder's interest was piqued. He walked down from the rostrum and first went to the low grade Sacred Artifact Master competition area to take a look. Then he circled around to the middle grade Sacred Artifact Master competition area before finally arriving behind Mu Yun and the others.
However, Xu Zhengqi was stunned by what he saw.
"What an ingenious method!"
Xu Zhengqi couldn't help but exclaim inside. He stood where he was and stared closely at Mu Yun's method.
The contract curve he was looking for was completely different from the common methods of the three thousand Small Worlds.
It seemed to be even more, even more mysterious!
How was this possible!
This thought appeared in Xu Zhengqi's mind and he was immediately shocked.
Mu Yun's inscribing of the contract actually made him feel mysterious!
However, Xu Zhengqi stood behind Mu Yun with Liu Tingyun in a daze. Second Elder Qi Bufan and Third Elder Leng Ruofeng felt incredulous.
What could possibly surprise Xu Zhengqi?
The two elders looked at each other and walked down from the rostrum. Like Xu Zhengqi, they walked from the low-grade Sacred Artifact Master area to the middle grade Sacred Artifact Master area before arriving behind Mu Yun.
"Eh?"
The three elders were all old people who had been immersed in the Dao of Artifact Refinement all their lives, so they naturally saw the peculiarity of Mu Yun's method at a glance.
Most importantly, this peculiarity looked like the novels written by novelists themselves. The protagonists went in different directions, but the endings all reached the peak.
However, Mu Yun's inscribing had reduced the path to the peak by more than half. Moreover, this peak seemed to be higher than the peak they knew!
