“Dang dang dang!” After another half an hour, three clear bells rang out, the time for alchemy had arrived.
A few dan masters who were about to complete their pills were disturbed by this bell ringing, and the pills in their furnaces exploded and turned into a pile of dregs.
The ten odd-job disciples had already started in collecting the jade bottles, and for every jade bottle the odd-job disciples collected, they would insert a sign next to the dan furnace with the name of the elixir that the alchemist had refined.
The pill that Mo Wuji had refined was also taken away, and the sign inserted next to his furnace read, Face Restoration Pill.
Mo Wuji looked around and realised that out of the more than a hundred dan masters at the scene, he seemed to be the only one who chose the Repairing Face Pill.
Most of the dan masters chose the fourth grade Earth Spirit Dan, and the few who chose the third grade Human Spirit Dan were basically the Phaseless Dan and the Bone Quenching Dan.
Mo Wuji guessed that these two Third Grade Human Spirit Dan Dan Formulas should be very valuable, otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people choosing them.
Some of the dan masters who saw Mo Wuji choosing the Rejuvenation Dan were somewhat speechless. The Face Restoring Pill could be said to be one of the most worthless pills in the cultivation world. If it was the Face Resurfacing Pill, perhaps more people would have chosen it. Something like the Face Restoring Pill, not only was it worthless, I heard that it wasn’t very easy to refine.
Only Yin Shanyin understood Mo Wuji’s purpose for choosing the Face Restoring Pill, and that was definitely for Smokey.
Soon all the dan masters’ jade bottles were collected and placed on the five dan masters’ judging tables. The five judging dan masters opened the jade bottles and started taking turns to check the colour and grade of the pills.
A full half hour passed before Dan Master Ming Ning stood up. Everyone knew that the results of the third round of judging had come out.
Master Ming Ning Dan’s voice was clear, ”After three rounds of intense and fierce Dan competition, the Five Elements Dan Competition has come to an end, and the rankings of the top one hundred Dan masters have also come out. Now I will announce the rankings, and for each Dan Master announced, please ask him to come up to the stage to receive the reward and the jade token to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain.”
There were rewards for the top ten of the Five Elemental Desolate Domain Dan Competition, but no one would care what those rewards were at this moment, all of them were focused on the rankings. Compared to entering the Five Elements Desolate Domain, that little reward was nothing at all.
“First place No. 37 Dan Master 261 points, second place No. 9 Dan Master 257 points, third place No. 2 Dan Master 256 points, fourth place No. 113 Dan Master ……” Ming Ning Dan Master reported ten Dan Masters in one breath before stopping.
Mo Wuji didn’t care that number 632 wasn’t reported, it was expected. Although he had perfectly refined a furnace of Third Grade Human Spirit Pill Restoring Face Pill, the difference between the value of the Third Grade Human Spirit Pill and the value of the Fourth Grade Earth Spirit Pill was too great, and his third round of pills had definitely pulled down many points.
Seeing Zhang Ding being the first to receive the reward from Master Ming Ning Dan, Mo Wuji realised that this guy was number 37.
“Congratulations on being able to win the first place in this Dan Competition, welcome to join my Questioning Heaven Academy Palace Dan Tower here.” Ming Ning Dan Master said with a warm smile on his full face.
This scene made the vast majority of people in the square envious, many people wanted to enter the Five Elements Wasteland just to find the top spirit that would make the Questioning Heaven School Palace need it, and then join the Questioning Heaven School Palace.
And now that people hadn’t even entered the Five Elemental Desolate Domain, they were favoured by the Sixth Grade Earthly Pill Master of the Questioning Heaven School Palace and then personally invited. This kind of supreme honour, who wouldn’t want it?
Mo Wuji secretly said, this guy is really getting both fame and fortune, not only did he receive your first place’s generous rewards and a bunch of slots to enter the Five Elemental Desolate Domain, he also received an invitation from the Questioning Heavenly Academy Palace.
“Many thanks, Senior Ming Ning, the Heavenly Questioning School Palace has always been a place that my juniors have looked up to, and it is an honour for my juniors to be able to enter the Heavenly Questioning School Palace.” Zhang Ding received the reward in a very decent manner and exited the round altar.
Originally, Mo Wuji thought that the first place should be Mu Ying, but he didn’t expect it to be Zhang Ding. What made Mo Wuji even more surprised was that not only was the first place not Mu Ying, the second place was also not Mu Ying.
The second place number 9 was also a man, this man had a head of yellow hair man.9 apparently didn’t talk much and didn’t seem to be very verbal. After receiving the reward and facing the invitation from the Ming Nging Dan Master, he just said a big thank you and never spoke again.
The third number 2 was finally Mu Ying’s turn, even though Mo Wuji couldn’t tell any gains or losses from Mu Ying’s face, he could guess that Mu Ying was a little less than favourable.
As a heaven’s pride, the recognised number one in the younger generation in the Dan Dao, she actually didn’t win first place, which was already considered disgraceful. It was even if she didn’t come first, she didn’t even get second. It wasn’t just her who had no face, the Dan Tower of the Heavenly Enquiring Palace also had little face.
The winning places were continuously reported out, and a batch of young dan masters received their rewards from the round altar.
When it was reported close to 50th place, Mo Wuji was a little worried, by all rights, it should be his turn too. Unless Master Ming Ning said that his top ten wins in the previous two rounds were fake.
Seemingly sensing Mo Wuji’s worries, following him, he heard Master Ming Ning Dan’s melodious voice, “…… Fiftieth place No. 632 201 points ……”
Mo Wuji almost reflexively rushed out of his position, he had finally gained a place, and he was still the fiftieth. This meant that he had fifty one spots to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain. No matter what, he wouldn’t be able to use up so many spots.
“Congratulations, Senior Brother Mo. Don’t get too excited when you go on stage.” Yin Shanyin’s congratulatory voice came from the side.
Mo Wuji finally calmed down from his excitement and hurriedly said, “Thank you Senior Sister Yin, you don’t have to worry, I have as many spots on my side as you want.”
More places would be of no use to Mo Wuji at all, giving some to Yin Shanyin who had helped him was not something he cared about.
“Haha ……” From afar, Zhen Shaoke waved his fist hard, he hadn’t looked away after all. Not only did he not look away, it was still a great harvest. He also had some understanding of Mo Wuji, Mo Wuji was definitely not a ruthless person. He believed that Mo Wuji could take out a portion of the quota for him, and as long as he had this portion of the quota, he would be able to rope in more elders from the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion.
“Big brother, isn’t this normal? Wuji is so skilled in alchemy, it would only be strange if he doesn’t win a place, you’re really making a fuss.” On one side, Zhen Shaoru muttered in dissatisfaction.
Zhen Shaoke, who rarely exploded with foul language, finally couldn’t help but explode, “What do you know.”
Zhen Shao Ru was about to speak again when the smiling Second Pavilion Master had already walked over, “Shao Ke, Shao Ru you’re all here. This time, Shao Ke, you have made a great achievement for my Nine Moons Dan Pavilion, that number 632 is really good. By the way, when the awards are over, we’ll give him a welcome ceremony.”
Zhen Shao Ru was furious, Zhen Shao Ke stopped Zhen Shao Ru’s words and said indifferently, “The second pavilion master is wrong, Wuji being able to obtain the rankings has nothing to do with my Nine Moons Dan Pavilion, I promised him that the quota to enter the Five Elements Wilderness Domain is all under his control, it has nothing to do with my Dan Pavilion.”
The Second Pavilion Master’s face turned a full colour, “How can this be? That is at least my Nine Moons Dan Pavilion’s participation quota.”
Zhen Shao Ru was furious and pointed at the Second Pavilion Master, “Woman, you fart, that quota is clearly my elder brother’s, I heard you say that after my elder brother obtained this quota, whether or not he could get the rankings has nothing to do with the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion. Now go back on your word, your mouth is stinking ah.”
The second pavilion master’s face sank and his tone turned cold as he said, “Shao Ke, Shao Ru lacked upbringing from a young age, but to speak to your elders like this is a bit too much.”
Zhen Shaoke clasped his fists, “Second Pavilion Master, my younger brother has always been such a thick-headed person, please forgive me, Second Pavilion Master.”
The Second Pavilion Master waved his hand and said indifferently, “Forget it, let’s discuss the matter of the quota to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain.”
Zhen Shaoke said indifferently, “Pavilion Master Cheng, I’ve already said that the quota has nothing to do with me.”
Having said that, Zhen Shaoke raised his hand to stop the Second Pavilion Master from wanting to speak and continued, “Don’t say that the quota has nothing to do with me, even if it does, I am the Young Pavilion Master of the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion. If there’s anything, I still don’t need to consult others.”
In the last sentence Zhen Shaoke’s tone became even more severe, the Second Pavilion Master froze for a moment, she did not expect Zhen Shaoke to suddenly become so tough.
By the time she reacted, Zhen Shaoke had already taken Zhen Shaoru far away. It was only at this time that she remembered that she was only a Second Pavilion Master. The true owner of the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion was the Grand Pavilion Master, and before she became the Grand Pavilion Master, Zhen Shaoke was the successor of the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion. Zhen Shaoke was being tough at this time, that was because with a quota to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain, he would definitely be able to attract a group of people to help him.
……
At the same moment, the black-bearded old man beside Qu Wan’er s side sighed, ”This young man called Mo Wuji’s will is really strong, he actually killed his way into the top 50 with a third grade human dan master at the Pulse Expansion Realm. If his spiritual root isn’t inferior, then the future is bright and far away.”
Qu Wan’er didn’t interject, she knew what her master would say next.
Sure enough, after sighing, the black-bearded old man continued, “Wan’er, no matter what, you have to make an appointment for him later. And it’s better to be early than late, if his quota is allocated on his own, then at times like this, the quota in his hands will soon be scrambled and purchased away. If you are late, even if he wants to help you, he won’t be able to. Even if he is participating in the competition for someone else and obtains this ranking, it would be a simple matter to take out a quota and give it away.”
“Yes, Master.” Qu Wan’er said in a low voice, she didn’t want to do this, but she also knew that she had to. The results of the competition came out, and the Heavenly Extreme Hall’s ranking wasn’t good, it hadn’t been reported until now, and it was very likely that it would be outside the eighties. In that case, it would still be really hard for her to share a spot.
“Congratulations on winning the fiftieth place in the Five Elements Dan Competition, what is your name?” Master Ming Ning Dan placed a golden silk pouch containing fifty one bracelets in Mo Wuji’s hand and asked gently.
“Thank you Senior Ming Ning, junior Mo Wuji.” Mo Wuji excitedly received the golden silk bag, this meant that he had achieved the first step of success.
“Mo Wuji, not bad not bad. I see that you don’t seem to be too young, why are you only at the Pulse Expansion Realm? Could it be that your spiritual roots are not good?” Master Ming Ning asked again as he nodded his head.
Mo Wuji was thankful in his heart, he was on the stage with the nine people in front of him, and Master Ming Ning Dan only asked so much to him alone, he was obviously looking at him differently.
“Yes, junior is only a lower grade spirit root, and by a fluke, he cultivated a lightning attribute flesh tempering technique, which gave him the opportunity to stand here.” Mo Wuji replied respectfully.
A trace of disappointment flashed through Master Ming Ning Dan’s eyes, at the same time, he also understood how Mo Wuji was able to keep his hands from being scorched and still cultivate the True God’s Flower of the Thunder Attribute, so it turned out that Mo Wuji had quenched his fleshly body, and it was quenched with a Thunder Source.
“Good, don’t give up on your dreams, you go down first.” Master Ming Ning, who originally wanted to take Mo Wuji as his disciple, had already dispelled the idea after knowing Mo Wuji’s spiritual root.
No matter how talented one was in alchemy, a lower grade spiritual root would be in vain.
