“My Pagoda City’s aristocratic families have wagered resources worth six million origin coins.” The Zhang family’s patriarch, Zhang Xuan, swept his gaze across the surroundings and said loudly.
With the stakes set, Yu Changdao and a level seven alchemist named Yang Ting stood on the platform.
“l won’t bully you. I’ll craft a level third battle armor. If you can break through its defense, then I’ll admit defeat,” Yang Ting said, clearly uninterested in Yu Changdao. After speaking, flames erupted directly in front of him.
Five faint golden and light green flames intertwined. Spiritual materials emitting different halos were neatly arranged in front of him.
The skill of an expert becomes apparent with action.
Yang Tings weapon refinement methods were completely different from what Yu Changdao and the others were accustomed to.
Various alchemical materials were categorized, and the flames were also divided into several types.
This refining technique was actually similar to what Han Muye had shown them.
However, it was not as exquisite as Han Muye’s. While Han Muye could summon dozens or even hundreds of flames in front of him, Yang Tings flames were fewer, and so were the materials.
“The refining techniques from the big cities!” Yu Changdao exclaimed.
Yang Ting raised his eyebrows and laughed. “You’re quite knowledgeable.
“I’ve traveled with my teacher to the big city. Now I’m just waiting for the academy to recruit new disciples so I can participate in the trial and become a disciple of the academy.
“I’m only here to earn some tuition fees.
“l didn’t expect a personal delivery from you guys.”
He laughed and shook his head.
Wu Hua and Ma Mingyuan in the audience didn’t look pleased.
Yu Changdao remained silent for a moment as he glanced at the rapidly blending flames and materials in front of Yang Ting.
The techniques displayed by the opponent were obviously beyond what he knew.
It was impossible for him to win with any of the refining techniques he currently possessed. Admit defeat directly?
Impossible.
However, how could he have a chance of winning?
“Hehe, it seems like Yu Changdao is ready to concede?” Below the platform, an old man in a bright yellow robe said with a disdainful smile.
“No, Yu Changdao has always been the titan of our Pagoda City’s Alliance of Refining Masters. He has controlled the Alliance for so many years; how could he concede directly?” Another middle-aged man wearing a robe embroidered with the badge of a level four refining master sneered.
Obviously, this was a refining master from a prestigious family who had long been dissatisfied with the three titans’ control over the Pagoda City Alliance of Refining Masters.
This was the square of the Alliance’s main hall. Ordinary people in the city could not come here. Most of those who could come here to watch were refining masters.
Nowadays, most of the refiners from the citys Alliance were working in workshops. Who would have the leisure to watch the show here?
Therefore, apart from the powerhouses from aristocratic families, the audience below consisted mostly of refiners from aristocratic families.
Yu Changdao was not affected by the sarcastic remarks from the audience.
He looked at Yang Ting refining in an orderly manner with a gleam of insight in his eyes.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had observed his chief refiner crafting the Microscopic Eye, he would have panicked by now.
Now, as he watched Yang Ting forge weapons, he felt calm instead.
So much for that.
Compared to his own chief disciple, he was clearly far inferior.
“In today’s situation, we can only innovate and find another way,” Yu Changdao muttered, his eyes becoming brighter.
After observing the process of his chief refining the Microscopic Eye, Yu Changdao, like everyone else, had an endless obsession with refining a proprietary artifact.
Even if it was not as valuable as the Microscopic Eye, it was still an extremely honorable thing to have a patent.
Moreover, there was an annual reward of 100 billion origin stones.
“Breaking the defense of a level three Battle Armor.
“Breaking the defense of a level three Battle Armor…”
As Yu Changdao watched Yang Ting rapidly crafting an armor, the spiritual light turned into engraved runes in his hand, and his eyes became even brighter.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand, and a burst of flames rose.
Seeing that Yu Changdao was finally about to start refining, Wu Hua and Ma Mingyuan heaved a sigh of relief.
Even if he were to lose, he could not admit defeat directly.
But looking at the few spiritual materials placed in front of Yu Changdao, they frowned again.
Was he not crafting a Battle Armor?
Without the power of the Battle Armor, how could he break through the defense of the opponent’s Level Three Battle Armor?
The people from the aristocratic families of Pagoda City had even more smiles on their faces.
Yu Changdao obviously had no other choice but to act in such a hasty manner.
In particular, a few refiners quickly explained to their family members beside them about Yu Changdao’s alchemy technique, the names, and characteristics of the materials in front of him.
The more they explained, the more laughter erupted from below.
Yu Changdao, one of the three titans of Pagoda City’s Alliance of Refining Masters, was not crafting a Battle Armor at all.
What did that mean?
It meant that this level six refining master had already conceded.
He had given up all his wealth.
This round made these aristocratic families extremely proud.
The chief of the Alliance dared not fight, and one of the three titans, a level six refining master, had lost everything.
The Pagoda City Alliance would be utterly disgraced this time.
In the future, the members of Pagoda City’s Alliance would no longer be cohesive.
Yang Ting also noticed that Yu Changdao was not refining a Battle Armor. Disdain flashed across his face, along with a hint of anger.
To begin with, the opponent was not of equal status, so defeating him was unsportsmanlike.
Now, the opponent was so perfunctory, making him even more displeased. With a cold snort, the flames intertwined in front of him, shining brightly.
Later, I’ll show you what a level seven refining master is capable of!
At this point, Yu Changdao no longer paid attention to Yang Ting.
He only blended or separated various spiritual materials in front of him in a confused and disorderly manner..
