I can travel between two planes

Chapter 5 Fallen genius, dignified debut!

The first selection of the Zongmen Dabi's internal selection.

Also known as 'sea selection'.

In terms of the process of entering a company, it is the stage of submitting resumes.

A large number of eligible people will participate.

Even in the selection of the refining group, there will always be people who are not from the refining pavilion.

The next day, Jiang Xian came to the selection venue with dark circles under his eyes.

What I saw was a sea of ​​people.

Hundreds, no, at least thousands of people!

Before this time, Jiang Xian really didn't know that there were so many young people who were good at refining weapons in Tianjizong.

Most of the departments other than the Artifact Refining Pavilion also came.

Everyone wants to participate in the Zongmen Grand Competition.

It is understandable, who made it a game that is as famous as the Olympic Games in Eastern China.

If you can become famous there, your future will be guaranteed.

And want to go to Zongmen Dabi.

The first hurdle is naturally the internal selection of the sect.

There are tens of thousands of disciples in the Artifact Refining Pavilion of Tianjizong.

There are also hundreds or thousands of refiners under the age of 40.

He wanted to stand out among such a large number of refiners and win the top three qualifications.

Difficult to climb to the sky.

There was noise from the crowd ahead.

Jiang Xian looked away.

On the platform that was set up in advance, a group of spectators and judges appeared on the stage.

They are off-court referees and witnesses to the selection.

The leader is Song Gucheng, the owner of the Artifact Refining Pavilion.

It was a middle-aged handsome guy in a black short robe.

Her long hair is tied into a ponytail, her temperament is gentle and capable, and she is personable.

When Jiang Xian joined the Artifact Refining Pavilion, the other party was still traveling far away.

In recent years, I have made a lot of enemies before I came back.

Big old guy.

Pavilion Master Song smiled and waved to the bottom, and sat down at the head of the jury.

Then seated on his right was a fat man with a slim figure.

That was Ye Yanghu, the Deputy Pavilion Master of the Artifact Refining Pavilion.

That is, the fat man's father who broke into Jiang Xian's house before.

This person who didn't pay any attention to the people in the venue kept talking to Song Gucheng with a flattering expression.

next moment.

When a red figure appeared on the stage, Jiang Xian couldn't move his eyes away.

The eyebrows are like distant mountains, and the eyes are like autumn waters.

A red dress is like an inextinguishable flame, and the red leaves in the city are not as good as her.

It was a dark red.

Lu Hongshang, his master.

I haven't seen you for ten years, just like before.

Cheers came from the monks participating in the selection and the auditorium on both sides.

Most of the people present were disciples of the Artifact Refining Pavilion.

Needless to say, Lu Hongshang's popularity in the Refining Pavilion.

It's not much different from a star.

As the youngest elder in the Artifact Refining Pavilion, she is also a rare female Artifact Refiner.

She has been regarded as a treasure by the Refining Pavilion from the very beginning.

Lu Hongshang smiled reservedly and sat on the left side of Pavilion Master Song.

Suddenly, she seemed to feel something, and looked in a certain direction off the stage.

But Jiang Xian had already withdrawn his gaze, and his figure disappeared into the crowd.

Before playing, he didn't want to be discovered by the master so quickly.

That's no surprise.

It seems that Lu Hongshang's behavior of probing his brain was too obvious, which aroused Song Gucheng's curiosity.

——Maybe he was annoyed by the fat man on the other side.

He turned his head and asked:

"What's the matter, Elder Lu, are you looking for someone?"

Lu Hongshang couldn't see the familiar figure, and said a little lonely: "Yes, I'm looking for someone. It would be great if he would come to participate."

The referee who presided over the selection of the Grand Competition wore the uniform of the Artifact Refining Pavilion and flew onto the stage from near the auditorium.

He coughed twice towards the audience, and used his spiritual power to increase the volume:
"Everyone line up to the open space, line up in ten rows."

The young disciples off the field consciously lined up.

The head of the line faces a grassy clearing.

A table at least 30 meters long is placed horizontally in front of the open space.

The table is divided into ten small grids.

Under the table in each grid, all kinds of refining materials are stored in boxes, waiting for use.

On the table is a full set of refining tools.

"Listen carefully, now let's explain the selection rules!"

The referee continued when the team was almost lined up.

"The rules are so simple that monkeys can understand them! Have you seen the target 20 meters away on the grass?"

Many people probed their heads.

20 meters away from the wide lawn, there are ten square targets lined up.

Looks like it should be a wooden target.

"After the selection begins, everyone takes turns to make a 'long-range attack-type spiritual weapon' on the workbench with the prepared materials, and attack a target 20 meters away. If the target is penetrated, it is considered qualified!"

The contestants whispered.

The target is not big, smaller than the upper body of an adult.

Want to hit accurately at a distance of 20 meters.

You have to make at least one long-range weapon that can point where to hit.

Bows and arrows, slingshots are fine.

The test is the most basic refining ability.

In previous years, there were always some crooked melons and cracked dates trying to sneak in, and this alone can wipe out a batch of fake ones.

The only difficulty is making refining props on the spot.

If you don't have a certain skill in refining weapons, you will only panic and fail after playing.

After all, it's just an audition.

A low level of difficulty is normal.

As far as Jiang Xian could hear, no one said it was difficult.

On the stage, the referee shouted loudly like a military training instructor:
"Everyone is limited to 10 minutes, timeout is unqualified! Failure to penetrate the target is unqualified! Maliciously interfering with others is unqualified!
Now I announce that the first round of internal selection for the Zongmen Grand Competition has officially started—”

"Wait."

The referee is about to announce the start of selection.

The players off the field are also eager to try.

But at this moment, Song Gucheng suddenly stood up from his seat to interrupt.

He waved his hand to the referee, smiled and said to the audience:

"The number of participants this year is somewhat beyond our expectations. In order to prevent the second round of competition from being too crowded, I temporarily decided to add a little 'small condition' to the original topic."

Hearing what Song Gucheng said, there was a commotion in the field.

Even the judges were surprised and indifferent.

Song Gucheng waved his sleeve, and a piece of primary metal mineral appeared on the table.

After being squeezed by spiritual power, it quickly split and changed into a flat square
Many people look at their faces longer and longer.

"Haha, I think many people have guessed it, right?"

Song Gucheng divided the metal into ten iron plates, and happily erected one of them.

"Next, listen to my instructions and replace all the wooden targets in the competition with the same type I have at hand—a five-millimeter-thick iron plate!"

The players wailed at once.

Brother, breaking through the iron plate and breaking through the wooden plate are not the same concept at all, okay? !

Listen to the wailing from the audience.

The upper half of Song Gucheng's face was written with pity, and the lower half with black belly.

To sum it up in two words - tax evasion.

He seems like a fun guy.

Many players who wanted to participate left on the spot.

There are still some who are entangled in whether it can be done.

Only a small number of young craftsmen appear relatively calm and have sufficient confidence in their own strength.

"Oh, a bunch of cowards, what's so difficult about it."

Ye Bufan stood at the front of the line and sneered.

In the distance, the disciples of the Artifact Refining Pavilion were replacing wooden targets with iron rakes.

But he has no qualms.

On the contrary, he despises the cowardly peers around him, feeling full of superiority.

"Brother said well!"

"Brother, come on, I'll treat you to a drink of flower wine tonight!"

In the auditorium, several of Ye Bufan's attendants shouted loudly.

The noise here slightly attracted Song Gucheng's attention.

Ye Yanghu, the deputy cabinet master next to him, immediately introduced enthusiastically:
"That's my son, Ye Bufan. He has been gifted with intelligence and talent since he was a child. He will definitely win the title this time and win glory for my Tianji sect!"

"Oh, let's hope he makes it out."

Song Gucheng nodded noncommittally, and then raised the corners of his mouth again.

Because he had already heard the signal that the selection had started.

The ten refiners at the front of the line all stepped forward.

Someone began to forge a suitable spirit weapon without thinking.

Some people were thinking seriously about the material box, sweating from anxiety.

Among them, Ye Bufan was the most confident person.

He knows the way.

It only took 5 minutes to create a flying sword.

According to the traditional cast iron method.

This set will take half a day anyway.

But the difference between immortal cultivators is that they can use spiritual power and various magical spells.

For a refiner.

Learning a 'wrought iron method' is more important than anything else.

The so-called wrought iron method is a spell that can change the properties of materials.

Although the word 'wrought iron' is in the name, this spell can change more than just steel.

It doesn't matter if it's metal, animal bone or wood.

Grinding, forging, modifying the shape—

An iron forging method is enough to meet most of the needs of a refiner.

Greatly improve refining efficiency.

Just now Song Gucheng used the wrought iron method to make ten iron plates from the metal block.

The more outstanding the monk, the finer the effect can be achieved.

Ye Bufan finished building the weapon and activated the flying sword.

Immediately, the sword shot out like a shooting star.

With a clang.

The sharp flying sword pierced deeply through the five millimeter thick iron plate, and even broke a piece of it.

Seeing the first player to finish the race perform so perfectly.

The audience gave applause.

Song Gucheng also raised his eyebrows slightly.

But hearing Ye Yanghu start promoting his son again, he suddenly lost interest and slumped down.

Ye Bufan easily passed the first round of selection.

He glanced arrogantly at the absent-minded Lu Hongshang on the stage, and strode away from the arena.

He came to the auditorium to stay with his gang of cronies.

Originally, he had nothing to do after clearing the customs, and his little brothers also urged him to go to the brothel to drink together.

But Ye Bufan refused.

He's still here, just to see someone's joke.

Although Ye Bufan showed disdain for the first round of selection questions.

But he actually knew how difficult this round was.

When the wooden rake is replaced with an iron rake, the difficulty soars directly.

It can be said that there are thousands of contestants.

In the end, no more than fifty survived to the second round.

Just so cruel.

Ye Bufan was educated by his father's elite since he was a child, and he piled up resources so that he can surpass his peers today.

It's not so easy for others to pass the test as easily as he did.

In Ye Bufan's view, Jiang Xian's level belongs to the one that cannot pass.

He just wanted to see the 'genius' who boasted so much in front of him yesterday.

Under the watchful eyes of Elder Lu, he couldn't even pass the first round, and seemed to be running away in despair.

That look must be quite interesting!
Ye Bufan grinned an evil smile.

At this time, Jiang Xian appeared.
