Du Rou'er cast a cold glance at Du Yao'er. "So what do you want to do? I've always told you to practice more, but all you do is compare yourself with Ran Ziling. She lacks talent, while you're just lazy. Now you're scared?"
"I..." Du Yao'er wanted to retort.
But when she met Du Rou'er's icy gaze, she immediately dared not say another word.
Since childhood, Du Yao'er had always been afraid of this elder sister.
Because only Du Yao'er knew firsthand that although her elder sister looked gentle and beautiful on the outside, her heart was as venomous as a snake.
When she was a child, she had once provocatively challenged her elder sister out of willfulness and was severely punished in the end.
That incident had left such a deep impression on her that whenever she saw her elder sister looking angry, she dared not provoke her.
"Brother, won't we get into trouble for seriously injuring the people from the Dark Night Pavilion?" Ran Ziling suddenly thought of the matter of joining forces with the Yun family to deal with Yan Geng and Dongfang Zhi when she saw Feng Yuqin.
Ran Xiuzhe snorted. "The Ran family has already clashed with the Dark Night Pavilion. Do you think there's any chance of reconciliation?"
The people from the Yun family beside them had a similar thought.
After all, just like the people from the Du family, they also had their eyes on Mo Xuanye.
If the Dark Night Pavilion were to disappear, their families would have a chance.
Feng Yuqin didn't bother to care about the true intentions of these people.
She led Han Luosu and Chu Xiaomian to the location of the Dark Night Pavilion.
This was an arrangement they had made beforehand.
If it weren't for Yan Geng and Dongfang Zhi being injured, they would also be here.
Yan Geng and Dongfang Zhi were stronger in the aspects of formations and alchemy, so they had planned to participate in the contest.
As for Ye Ying and Meng Xingyu, they had to take care of other matters in the Dark Night Pavilion, so it was impossible for all four of them to participate.
Feng Yuqin guessed that these hidden families might have discovered this and thus instigated the Ran and Yun families to deal with Yan Geng and the others.
The contest venue was arranged by the people from the All - World Alliance.
The All - World Alliance was now quite familiar with Feng Yuqin.
So when they saw Feng Yuqin appear, they immediately made all the preparations.
"Feng Yuqin is going to participate in the weapon refinement contest?" someone said in disbelief.
"Don't you guys care that the people from the All - World Alliance have a very good attitude towards Feng Yuqin and her companions?"
"Right! The expressions on the faces of the All - World Alliance people are completely different from how they treat other forces."
"Even the people from the hidden families can't compare."
The people from the hidden families, who already had unpleasant expressions on their faces, looked even more disgruntled upon hearing this.
They had previously thought that the people from the All - World Alliance were just like this.
Truly... there's no comparison, no harm.
"We must find a way to crush the Dark Night Pavilion," Du Rou'er said coldly.
This time, the Du family was led by Du Rou'er.
She was a formation master and would be facing Chu Xiaomian. So she glanced at the area where Chu Xiaomian was going and looked extremely confident.
Du Ziteng was a weapon refinement master.
Hearing his sister say this, he immediately replied, "Sister, have you forgotten that Feng Yuqin has only been in contact with weapon refinement for a short time?"
Du Yao'er beside him also said, "According to our information, Feng Yuqin only started learning weapon refinement after she arrived at the Divine Sword Sect in the Profound Feather Realm. In such a short period, how can she compare with brother?"
Du Rou'er cast a cold and solemn glance at the two of them. "Don't be careless when facing the enemy."
"Understood," but Du Ziteng didn't take it seriously.
After all, his thoughts were the same as what Du Yao'er had said. He had spent so many years on weapon refinement. Could he really be no match for Feng Yuqin, who had only recently started learning it?
Others also didn't expect Feng Yuqin to choose weapon refinement.
"Am I seeing things? Isn't Divine Doctor Feng most proficient in alchemy and medicine? Why did she choose weapon refinement?"
"Maybe she's also very good at weapon refinement?"
After all, not many people knew that Feng Yuqin had only been learning weapon refinement for a short time.
Many people thought that she could refine weapons even before she arrived at the Divine Sword Sect.
Otherwise, why did the Alchemy Guild invite her back then, but she went to the Divine Sword Sect, which was good at weapon refinement?
"Whether she's good or not, we'll know by watching."
Because this contest would start with weapon refinement, followed by alchemy, and finally formations.
The contests were arranged in sequence and not held simultaneously.
There were quite a few major forces participating in this contest.
Many people from various sects and families had also come.
When they stepped onto the contest stage, many people curiously looked at Feng Yuqin.
After all, Feng Yuqin, who was regarded as a divine doctor in their hearts, was actually participating in the weapon refinement contest.
This contest was different from the previous rankings on the list.
In the past, just getting a ranking was enough.
But in this contest, only coming first would matter. The rest was of little use.
When they saw Feng Yuqin appear before, the alchemists were especially worried.
But since Feng Yuqin was participating in the weapon refinement contest, they immediately felt that she was no longer a threat to them.
"Master, these people don't think highly of you," Hun Bing sensed the thoughts of these people and immediately relayed them to Feng Yuqin.
"Whatever," Feng Yuqin's goal today was to prevent the people from the hidden families from getting first place. So she didn't care what others said about her.
"These people are so naive. How could Master possibly lose?" Xiao Ying snorted.
"Right, Master's weapon refinement skills are very good now," Hun Bing also chimed in.
After all, Master had a cheating artifact.
Every time she practiced in the space, the time there was different from the outside world. Master could gain a lot more time.
"Everyone, the first round is weapon refinement. The materials and time for weapon refinement are all on your seats. Please read them carefully. There will be no further explanations later." The person in charge of hosting this contest was the Seventh Elder of the All - World Alliance. After he finished speaking, he pointed to the half - incense stick beside him. "The contest will officially start when the half - incense stick burns out."
Feng Yuqin's gaze fell on the rules.
Xiao Ying and the others were also looking at these rules.
Generally speaking, in a contest, the quality and level of the product, as well as the refining time, were all considered.
"Master, do you need to finish ahead of time?" Xiao Ying asked after reading the rules.
"No," Feng Yuqin replied. "We don't know the situation in the Divine Realm yet. It's better to keep a low profile. After all, there are still people from the Divine Realm in the Profound Feather Realm."
As soon as Feng Yuqin said this, the spiritual pets understood what she meant.
"Mother, weren't the people from the Divine Realm all killed by you in the teleportation formation last time?" Xiao Ling'er asked curiously.
"Even if there are no people from the Divine Realm, I still don't want to be too high - profile. After all, the background of these hidden families should not be too bad. There's no need to put myself in a difficult situation," Feng Yuqin said calmly. "I just need to win, and a narrow victory also counts as a win."
Hearing this, Xiao Ling'er nodded. "Mother, I understand."
A faint smile appeared on Feng Yuqin's lips as her gaze fell on the half - incense stick...
