Ouyang Ruoyun thought for a moment and realized it made sense. "Fine, I won't compete with that old guy Gu Jianfeng for talents. Later, if the Divine Sword Sect needs any help, we'll lend a hand. We should also get in touch with more people related to Feng Yuqin. This girl is not only extremely talented but also has a personality I like."
Ye Zhengping was relieved to see that his wife had finally come to her senses.
However, he knew that his wife was just saying it. After all, someone like Feng Yuqin, having chosen the Divine Sword Sect, would not easily switch to another power.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have so readily rejected the overtures from those major powers before.
On the competition stage, Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou never expected that Feng Yuqin would select materials almost as quickly as they did.
Even though she was only slightly slower, based on the information they had about Feng Yuqin,
they didn't take her seriously.
This confidence didn't last long.
The first round of the competition was to match different materials and then refine them into parts.
This time, they were required to refine a set of protective gear.
Different elements needed to be added, and then they were refined into individual parts.
The second round was to assemble these parts into a semi - finished product.
The third round was to shape the semi - finished product.
So, some of them were stunned when they saw that Feng Yuqin had already finished refining a part.
"Why is Feng Yuqin so fast?"
"She's an alchemist. She should be better at alchemy. How can she be so fast at refining weapons?"
"At this speed, is she still human? It's terrifying!"
"She could rely on her beauty, but she insists on relying on her strength."
Seeing this, the people from other powers were green with envy.
Their gazes turned towards the direction of the Divine Sword Sect.
They saw that the grand elders of the Divine Sword Sect were extremely excited. Two of the elders even stood up from their seats.
After all, Feng Yuqin's rapid progress in weapon - refining since she started learning was really shocking to them.
Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou finally realized that Feng Yuqin might be their biggest competitor.
Previously, they had regarded each other as rivals.
But when they saw that Feng Yuqin had already finished refining the first part, they both tacitly regarded her as their competitor.
"What on earth is going on with Feng Yuqin? Isn't she an alchemist? Why is she... so good at weapon - refining?" Situ Zihan didn't want to admit that Feng Yuqin was also excellent at weapon - refining.
But seeing that her current weapon - refining speed was faster than both Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou, she couldn't stay calm.
Situ Lin, on the other hand, thought of the five million spirit crystals.
For some reason, she felt that the bet amount was strange at that time.
Now, seeing Feng Yuqin like this, her face turned deathly pale.
She looked at Situ Zihan. She didn't want to remind her about the five million spirit crystals, but she had to, so that her sister could prepare in advance.
"Sister, do you still remember the man who bet five million spirit crystals?" As soon as Situ Lin said this, Situ Zihan's angry expression towards Feng Yuqin froze on her face.
At this moment, Situ Zihan also realized the problem with the spirit crystals.
At the auction house, she had lost a lot of spirit crystals because of Feng Yuqin.
Originally, she hadn't planned to bid for so many things.
In the end, not only did she spend all the spirit crystals her father had given her to bid for treasures, but she also spent all her own savings.
That wasn't all. She had also borrowed a lot of spirit crystals from Situ Lin and others, as well as the spirit crystals her father had given her for other matters.
She not only had no spirit crystals left but also owed a huge debt.
However, she knew that her father would probably just scold her for such a debt.
But now...
"No, Feng Yuqin won't win..." Situ Zihan thought of the five million spirit crystals and felt extremely uneasy.
She kept comforting herself that Feng Yuqin wouldn't win.
And she wouldn't lose.
Situ Lin's gaze fell on the competition stage.
She saw that Feng Yuqin had completed refining the second part in such a short time.
Meanwhile, Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou, who were the most popular candidates, had only finished refining one part.
"Good heavens, is Feng Yuqin a monster? She's already finished the second part?"
"This is too terrifying. How can she be good at both alchemy and weapon - refining?"
"And she's so good at both. Her talent is simply off the charts."
"There's no doubt that she has great talent. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so good at weapon - refining."
No matter how envious and jealous these people were, Feng Yuqin's weapon - refining skills continued steadily.
By the time she had completed all her parts, the fastest among the others had only refined half of their parts.
This contrast was really heartbreaking and demoralizing for the competitors.
Geniuses like Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou had always been very proud.
But today, being completely crushed by Feng Yuqin was really heart - wrenching.
In the end, the two of them almost completed the first round in a daze.
After they finished, the others also completed it one after another.
At first, the judges thought that since Feng Yuqin had refined so quickly, the quality of her parts might not be very good.
But when they touched the parts she had refined, they were shocked.
The quality was flawless.
Moreover, they had never seen anyone who could refine parts with such high purity.
The judges looked at Feng Yuqin with complicated expressions.
At the same time, they were jealous of the Divine Sword Sect again.
Why couldn't their sects have a disciple as outstanding as Feng Yuqin?
"Now, please all the contestants go back and rest. We'll continue the second round tomorrow." The voice of the right protector of the Heavenly Alliance rang out.
Feng Yuqin glanced at the parts of the others.
Seeing that the quality of the parts of Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou, the most outstanding ones, was less than two - thirds of hers, she suddenly didn't want to wait.
"May I ask if I can complete all the refining at once?" At first, Feng Yuqin was worried that there might be very powerful weapon - refiners.
In that case, during the breaks between each round, she would enter the space during the night to continue practicing weapon - refining.
But now, after seeing the parts of Xie Hongkai and Duan Zhou, she knew that her ability was far beyond theirs.
Even if they improved their weapon - refining level now, due to the quality of the parts, the spiritual weapons they refined in the end would definitely not be as powerful as hers.
If so, why should she waste time waiting here?
Wouldn't it be better to use this time to find the spiritual medicine to detoxify her daughter?
"What? Did I hear it wrong? Feng Yuqin wants to apply for a one - time competition?"
"This is impossible. A person's spiritual power simply cannot sustain the next round. Otherwise, why is weapon - refining divided into three rounds?"
