Supreme Conceited Emperor

The next morning, the sun was rising.

Because of yesterday's incident, the number of people in the central plaza had clearly doubled from the previous day. From a distance, one could see streams of people streaming in and out.

After the bell chime, the competition venue gradually quieted down.

Su Jue and the rest of the twenty-three who had won yesterday stood at the center of the stone stage, attracting everyone's attention.

"Now, let's talk about the rules of today's competition." It was still the same old man from yesterday.

"In today's competition, there will be three people who will directly enter tomorrow's finals. The three of them are Sword Lake Palace Murong Yingjie, Feng Yucheng of the Three Peak and my Free City's Little Princess Xiao Xiaodie."

Only after the old man made the announcement did it cause a commotion.

"I think this decision is correct. The refining abilities of these three people is definitely good enough to enter the finals. It's reasonable for them to directly enter."

"Yes, I think so too."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Immediately after, Murong Yingjie and the other two left the center of the stone stage, and then the old man announced once again: There are twenty people present today, and the outcome will be decided by the battle of the competition, the final seven people will enter the next round, and the method of challenge will be for free, and the challenge will be decided by the person being challenged from the box.

After the old man finished speaking, a deacon took out a large box.

"The match starts now."

After the old man left the stage, the atmosphere at the scene began to tense up. The twenty participants at the center of the stone platform also stood still.

Silence. After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the venue was still completely silent.

"Since no one has started, then let me, Yang Wei, be the first challenger."

Just when the crowd couldn't wait any longer, a young man in his twenties walked out from the Yang Family line with a faint playful look on his face.

"Who are you challenging?" The old man below the stage asked.

The young man who called himself Yang Wei laughed, and then looked at Su Jue and said: I want to challenge Su Jue!

"Su Jue!"

Everyone was surprised.

Su Jue's performance yesterday had shocked the Free City, his artifact forging strength was obvious to all, but this Yang Wei was actually challenging Su Jue.

"Now, the others will leave the stage and Su Jue will decide how to compete!" The old man said.

The remaining eighteen participants instantly jumped off the stone platform, while Su Jue walked to the side of the box with a smile, drew out a card, and threw it to the old man.

"Su Jue, Yang Wei, the two of you will determine the outcome of this competition through the refinement of the black gold sand."

After hearing the old man's words, Yang Wei suddenly laughed: "Su Jue, you made a name for yourself yesterday, but you were only lucky enough to discover the problem in the materials. If it wasn't for that, you would have been like us."

"What are you trying to say?" Su Jue asked with a smile.

"I want everyone to know that luck is only temporary. And now, your luck has already fallen. Now, what we are competing in is true strength. You will lose without a doubt." Yang Wei said confidently.

Su Jue laughed coldly: "I also said this before, since your Yang Family has taken my things, I will make you pay a hundred times over, then we will begin now."

"Boasting shamelessly, even if a country bumpkin cultivator fawned on the Shen family, he still wouldn't be able to change your rustic attitude." After Yang Wei finished speaking, he sat down and took out the oven s.

So at the same time, Su Jue took out his oven.

Only when the two of them were ready did the two deacons step onto the stage, each holding a large metal frame.

"There is ten thousand jin of black gold sand in the box. Now, the two of you open the oven!" The old man said.

Su Jue smiled, then opened up the oven, while Yang Wei was filled with suspicions.

"Rumble!" At this time, the two attendants directly poured the ten thousand gold black gold sand into the oven.

"What is this?" Yang Wei said in shock.

Not only Yang Wei, everyone below the stage started to talk to each other.

"To directly send ten thousand Jin of black gold sand into the furnace, this will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of refining. This will be interesting."

"That's right, not only does this test, it also tests the control ability as well as the strength of the fire."

Some of the more knowledgeable people realized the mystery behind it, and only then did they realize what was going on.

Su Jue had naturally figured out the reason for this long ago. If it was just a little bit of refining, anyone could do it with just twenty people, but under such circumstances, the difficulty of refining the pill would be even greater.

"Remember, both of you only have an incense stick of time. Within that one incense stick, whoever refines more will win. Burn the incense now and begin!"

With the smoke curling up, Yang Wei instantly slapped the oven and started to release flames.

Every second counted!

The time it took for an incense stick to burn was too short. He had to strive for every second.

But Su Jue still calmly released the flames.

A thousand kilograms of Black Gold Sand was indeed not enough to refine an incense's worth of time outside the furnace, but it might not be within the oven.

This was all thanks to his Grand Sun Primordial Flame.

The terrifying Grand Sun Primordial Flame poured into the oven and completely enveloped the ten thousand kilograms of black and gold sand. He wanted to refine ten thousand kilograms of it in one go.

"If my guess is correct, Cousin brother Yang Wei has already divided the ten thousand kilograms of black gold sand into ten portions. Refining one thousand kilograms at a time is a good idea." Below the stage, Yang Zhihuan nodded.

"However, the time allotted is too short, even if the allocation is reasonable, Yang Wei can at most refine three of them, after all, this kind of refining is more difficult." By the side, Daylight said with a smile.

"Look at Su Jue." At this time, a disciple of the Three Peak pointed at Su Jue.

"He actually wants to refine all the black gold sand at once. He's too arrogant." During the day, he said disdainfully.

"You arrogant fellow, you will definitely lose miserably. At that time, let's see how you are." Xiao Xiaodie was extremely pleased with herself, and even turned to look at Shen Mengqi provocatively.

She didn't dare say anything else to Su Jue, but she believed that Su Jue would definitely win when refining the black gold sand, because he had seen Su Jue refining the black gold sand outside the furnace with his own two eyes.

And now, he felt more and more that Su Jue had not only refined a few thousand kilograms that night.

"Buzz!"

Just then, a small black bead the size of a bean floated out of Yang Wei's oven.

"I've succeeded."

"In one third of the time, Yang Wei has already refined one portion. It's too fast."

Everyone exclaimed.

At the same time, the Elders of the Refiners' Association in the audience also nodded their heads.

"Your Yang family also has a few good seedlings this year." The president stroked his beard as he spoke to the middle-aged man sitting behind him.

This middle-aged man was the head of the Yang family, Yang Hongtai.

Yang Hongtai smiled and said, "Old President, you are flattering me. However, this time, our Yang Family has indeed produced a few talents. I am sure that all three of us will enter the finals."

"Good, very good." The old president laughed, then looked towards Xiao Yunchuan and asked: "What do you think of City Lord Xiao?"

"Indeed, there will be one of their Yang Family in the top five this year, but I wonder how Su Jue is doing." Xiao Yunchuan asked with a smile.

"This Su Jue is a bit too presumptuous, after all his cultivation and flame energy is not enough to refine so much in one go." The old Guild Leader said with some regret.

Xiao Yunchuan also nodded his head and looked at Su Jue who was on the stage with a tinge of disappointment.

"Buzz!"

With another sound, Yang Wei refined the second pill.

"Su Jue, you don't even have a single pill up until now. Let me see how you compare that with me." Yang Wei said proudly.

Su Jue could not be bothered to care about Yang Wei, the fire in his hands grew even stronger, and the outside of the furnace started to be surrounded by the Earth Terminus Cold Qi, causing others to be unable to see through its secrets.

"Time's up, Su Jue, Yang Wei will open the furnace!" "It's burnt out," the old man announced.

Yang Wei laughed in disdain, immediately opening up the oven, and the third piece of refined black gold iron appeared.

"Yang Wei refined three sets of Black Essence Iron." The old man said as he looked at Su Jue.

At this time, Su Jue smiled and opened up the oven.

"Buzz!"

A burst of light soared into the sky, and then a small black pearl the size of a fingernail was removed from the furnace, falling into the old man's hands.

The old man first looked at it in confusion, but soon after, he couldn't take his eyes off of his hand. The fear on his face only increased.

"To think that all of them were successfully refined!"

The moment he said this, the entire audience went into an uproar.

Within the time it took to burn an incense stick, he had refined all ten thousand pounds of black gold sand in one go.

"Impossible!" Yang Zhihuan shouted in disbelief.

"How could this be? This level of refinement is something that even I am unable to achieve." "Let's go!"

Thus, at the same time, Yang Wei walked up the stage like an arrow and ran to the old man's side to take a closer look.

"How is this possible, how is this possible!" Yang Wei consecutively retreated a few steps, then suddenly, he clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.

He had lost. Not only had he lost, but he had also been eliminated. He hadn't even been able to enter the finals. This was truly too big of a blow for him.

It was not only Yang Wei who spat out blood, even the spectator Yang Hong Tai's face turned red, just a moment ago he was swearing that all three participants from his clan would enter the finals, but in the blink of an eye, one of them was eliminated by Su Jue.

"This Su Jue is the person Situ Huo recommended. I didn't expect him to be so strong, but he's still just cannon fodder."

Yang Hong Tai sneered in his heart.

"This time, Su Jue wins!" The old man announced after a long while.

Silence, the scene became silent once again, everyone's gaze all landed on Su Jue, they saw Su Jue standing on the stage bathing in the sunlight, his expression calm and composed, as though the victory just now did not bring him much surprise.

"Alright, let the next match begin. Please welcome the next challenger on stage." The old man said.

"No need, let me challenge the second match." Su Jue said.

"Don't you need to rest?" The old man asked.

Su Jue laughed coldly, looked at the audience and said: "No need to rest."

"Then who do you want to challenge?" the old man asked.

Su Jue looked around, and then his gaze landed on the Yang Family's team: "You have two other competitors, right?"

Yang Huan was stunned, "So what?"

"Are you challenging us?" Yang Zhihuan asked.

Su Jue laughed disdainfully: "I am not challenging you, I am letting you come up to accept your failure and accept your punishment!"

"What!"

"Arrogant."

"Su Jue, you are really reckless." Immediately, one of the two Yang family members jumped onto the stage.

"Su Jue, let me deal with you!"
