Those who were familiar with refining materials showed their advantages in this round.
At least they were quicker in selecting materials.
"Look! Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou are so fast. While others have only picked one or two items, they've already finished."
"It seems the champion of this refining competition will come from the two of them again."
"I've bet on Xie Hongkai, so I hope he'll be the champion this time."
"I like Duan Zhou. I heard his refining technique has improved recently."
"Really? Then I might lose this bet!"
"I told you before to bet on Duan Zhou with me, but you didn't want to." The man said smugly.
"It's not certain. Maybe Xie Hongkai's refining technique has also improved during this period. We just don't know."
Those who had bet on Xie Hongkai also thought so.
"Look! Isn't that Feng Yuqin? Has she also finished selecting refining materials so quickly?"
"Her speed is not much slower than Xie Hongkai's and the others', right?"
"I suddenly remembered that when Feng Yuqin participated in the pill - refining competition before, everyone didn't think highly of her. But unexpectedly, she defeated Situ Zihan. Could it be that she'll take the first place again this time?"
"What are you thinking? How could a person be the best at everything?"
"It's a pity we can't place bets now. Otherwise, I'd like to bet on Feng Yuqin."
On the other side, Mo Xuanye appeared with Xiaolinger in his arms, followed by Dabao and Xiaobao.
The whole family was extremely good - looking, and they quickly caught everyone's attention.
"It's that man again."
"He's even holding a child this time. Could he be married?"
"Maybe it's a relative's child." Some infatuated women were reluctant to admit that such a powerful and good - looking man was married with children.
Mo Xuanye's appearance made many women at the scene turn their eyes to them.
Xiaolinger frowned slightly when she felt everyone's gazes, but didn't say anything.
Soon, even the Situ family noticed Mo Xuanye's appearance.
"Sister, look! It's that man." Situ Lin got excited when she saw Mo Xuanye.
Situ Zihan also looked over.
"Hey, he's holding a little girl?" Situ Lin then saw Dabao and Xiaobao. "And there are a pair of twins following behind. Could they be his children?"
"Absolutely not." Situ Zihan thought of some rumors she had heard before, but she always refused to believe them.
She had also been arranging people to investigate Mo Xuanye's identity and whereabouts, but there was no progress at all.
However, Situ Zihan knew that there must be a relationship between Mo Xuanye and Feng Yuqin.
The appearance of the three children now made Situ Zihan have a conjecture she didn't want to admit.
"Daddy, Mommy is going to start refining." After coming in, Xiaolinger's eyes were searching for her mother.
The deputy leader of the Tianxia Alliance was here this time.
Hearing Xiaolinger's words, there was a flash of shock in his eyes.
He followed Xiaolinger's line of sight and looked over.
When he saw Feng Yuqin, he was stunned.
No way.
This Feng Yuqin was actually...
The deputy leader's look at Feng Yuqin changed.
"Well, we're waiting for your mother to make a name for herself in the Diyan Continent." Mo Xuanye's gentle and doting voice sounded.
The deputy leader behind him: "..."
Dabao and Xiaobao also sat obediently beside to watch their mother refining.
They had watched their mother refine countless times in the space.
But now, it felt different.
The feelings of others were different.
Ordinary people couldn't tell, but those old guys who knew how to refine could see it clearly.
People from the four major forces, eight major sects, and ten major families had all come to watch this competition.
At first, they also thought that the Divine Sword Sect was in decline and short of people.
Feng Yuqin must be just a filler.
But when Feng Yuqin started refining, they knew she wasn't.
Moreover, far from being a filler.
It was very likely that Feng Yuqin was a good refiner.
This discovery shocked many people from the various forces present.
Was Feng Yuqin a prodigy?
She was so good at pill - refining, and now she was also good at refining?
Was there anything she couldn't do?
This was simply terrifying.
"Why did the Divine Sword Sect snatch Feng Yuqin away? I should have snatched her to our Wei family at all costs." Wei Yuanlong said unwillingly.
"Even if you tried to snatch her, she might not have chosen you." Cai Hanlin said calmly.
The people from the Soul - Separating Sect were also whispering to each other when they saw this scene.
They thought they had to get Feng Yuqin to their sect.
But...
The people from the Soul - Separating Sect looked in the direction where Mo Xuanye was sitting.
The high - level members of each force knew a thing or two about the relationship between Feng Yuqin and Mo Xuanye.
So the conflicting thoughts of wanting to snatch Feng Yuqin but also having concerns resurfaced.
Now, after seeing Feng Yuqin, that contradictory feeling came back at any time.
"Aqin has only been refining for a short time. Why do I feel she's really good?" The elder of the Divine Sword Sect was also confused by Feng Yuqin's performance.
Because Feng Yuqin's movements were very skillful, and she was also very proficient in adding refining materials.
It was as if she had refined countless times.
But these elders of the Divine Sword Sect knew that Feng Yuqin had only started learning refining under the guidance of the Fifth Elder not long ago.
"We can't look at Aqin with ordinary eyes." Although the Fifth Elder was also shocked, he remembered that when he had first guided Feng Yuqin in refining, her progress was simply like lightning.
Ou Ruoyun, the wife of the Flying Cloud Sect's master who had been saved by Feng Yuqin, also came this time.
Normally, Ou Ruoyun might not have come to such a competition.
But when she heard that Feng Yuqin would participate in the refining competition this time, she got interested and even dragged her husband along.
So seeing Feng Yuqin's steady speed, although she didn't understand refining, with her decades of experience, she still had some judgment.
"Lao Ye, this girl is so good at medicine, pill - refining, and now refining. Aren't we afraid she'll outshine our sect? Why don't we snatch her?" Ou Ruoyun, the sect - master's wife, tried to persuade her husband again.
Ye Zhengping gave his wife a helpless look. "Do you see that man holding a child over there from the Tianxia Alliance?"
Hearing this, Ou Ruoyun looked in that direction.
They knew a bit about Mo Xuanye's identity.
Moreover, they had their own information channels.
So regarding the relationship between Mo Xuanye and Feng Yuqin...
Thinking of their relationship, Ou Ruoyun showed a look of unwillingness on her face. "But are we just going to let it go?"
"At least we haven't fallen out with Feng Yuqin. That's already good news." Ye Zhengping said. "Look, no one in the whole Xuanyu Realm could save you, but Feng Yuqin did. In this situation, we can make friends with the Divine Sword Sect."
