Xiaoyu stood tall and straight on the hill, looking indifferently at Zi Yan's graceful figure gradually disappearing on the official road, shook her head, and said with a smile: "This girl has so many tricks, but I originally
I just want to join the Purple Prince Mansion and steal the Jiuji Soul Saliva, and this time it is justifiable."
Before Zi Yan left, Xiao Yu sacrificed his soul power and kept monitoring her, so Xiao Yu heard everything Zi Yan said to herself word for word.
"If I hadn't already had Qingqing in my heart, with Ziyan's beauty, she would have been a good choice." Xiaoyu joked to herself, then jumped down the hill and walked towards the official road.
"Although I agreed to join the Purple Prince's Mansion, there are some things that I still need to find time to explain clearly to Mr. Lei. After all, Liu Feng is the elder of the Yunjian Sect and is too powerful." Xiaoyu lowered his head and pondered.
"Well, let's wait until the sommelier competition is over before we discuss this matter." Xiaoyu thought about it for a while and made a decision in her heart.
"Counting the time, the first round of the Sommelier Competition should be coming to an end. It's time to go back." Stepping onto the official road, Xiao Yu stared at the huge city in front of him for a while, slowly walking past...
In a small private courtyard with a soft environment in Tianlong City, Xiaoyu pushed the door open and entered.
"Sir, you're back!" Seeing Xiao Yu's return, Mu Wanlong respectfully stepped forward to say hello.
"Yes." Xiaoyu tapped his forehead, walked to a rocking chair in the courtyard, waved to Mu Wanlong, and asked: "Wanlong, what was the result of the first round of the sommelier competition?"
"Going back to Young Master, this first round of competition..." Mu Wanlong explained to Xiao Yu in detail what he saw and heard today.
The first round of the Sommelier Competition was divided into three competitions. The first was to test the fire-bending skills of the participating sommeliers, the second was to refine materials, and the third was to refine a bottle of first-grade medicinal wine.
This sounds extremely simple and not difficult. However, in the end, there were only more than 130 people who successfully advanced, which was far too few compared to the 500 people who participated.
And most of them failed in the second competition, material purification. According to the regulations of the Sommelier Competition, the purification of medicinal materials must reach an intermediate level before they can advance. Moreover, the medicinal wine refined in the last round was also the highest among the first-grade medicinal wines.
The top level is no less complex than the average second-grade medicinal wine, and many people fail here.
"The requirements for the sommelier competition held once every ten years are really not that demanding." After listening to Mu Wanlong's explanation, Xiao Yu whispered softly.
However, in the sommelier competition held once every ten years, although the competition rules are extremely strict, the rewards are also very rich. Those who enter the top ten can get a large number of Origin Stone rewards, and the top three can even get precious wine recipes and other prizes.
Treasures, and those who perform well among them will also be attracted by other major forces. Liu Feng, the wine king of the year, stood out and joined the Yunjian Sect.
"I'm looking forward to tomorrow's competition, but before that, I have to be prepared." Xiaoyu pondered for a while, looked up at Mu Wanlong, and said: "Wanlong, I'm going to rest, don't disturb me for now.
I."
What Xiao Yu wants to prepare is to sleep, recharge his batteries, and prepare for tomorrow's sommelier competition.
Mu Wanlong promised with a respectful expression, sent Xiao Yu to the door, and then stepped back. Xiao Yu stepped in, fell directly on the bed, and fell asleep.
The next day, the sky was blue and cloudless, the sunshine was warm but not blazing, and there was an occasional breeze, which was cool and pleasant, making people feel refreshed.
Today is a major event in the Han Dynasty. The second round of the sommelier competition held every ten years will kick off today!
Ever since the first ray of sunlight broke through the shackles of the earth and shone on the streets of Tianlong City, a figure wearing a sommelier's robe appeared on the quiet streets of this historic ancient city.
Sommeliers have a noble status and are rarely seen on ordinary days. Because of their specialness, they appear to be somewhat mysterious and awe-inspiring in the hearts of ordinary people. But today, these sommeliers, who are rare to see and have high status, are just like ordinary mortals.
People walked out from all corners of Tianlong City and converged towards the central square of Tianlong City.
Immortal cultivators who lived in the city or came from other distant cities also showed up early. The dense flow of people was like ants coming out of their holes, crowded to the central square, ready to witness this sacred and noble wine master competition.
.
On this extremely special day, Xiao Yu also woke up early, washed up, and led Mu Wanlong out of the courtyard.
"Mr. Lei, why are you here?" As soon as Xiao Yu walked out of the courtyard, he saw Lei Tuohai standing outside the door, waiting for a long time.
"Haha, get up." Lei Tuohai smiled kindly, looked Xiao Yu up and down, and said: "The number of people who will appear in Tianlong City today will reach a terrifying number, and you have to participate in it in the spotlight.
This year's Sommelier Competition will make the Han Dynasty famous, are you ready?"
"I have been looking forward to this day for a long time." Xiao Yu smiled faintly.
Lei Tuohai also smiled and nodded, turned around and looked at the street in front of him, and suddenly asked: "Actually, I am very confused. With your strength, you are still thinking about participating in the sommelier competition. Could it be that you also..."
"Lei Lao wants to say that I also care about the illusory glory, right?" Xiao Yu guessed what Lei Tuohai was thinking and said it with a smile.
"Well, indeed." Lei Tuohai nodded.
"Actually, sommeliers are also ordinary people. They also need glory and recognition, but Xiao wants more than this. As Mr. Lei, he should know what the first place in this sommelier competition will get, right?" Xiao Yu
He replied with a slight smile.
"Soul-nourishing pill, this is the only thing that can make you tempted." Thinking of Xiaoyu's soul power being injured, Lei Tuohai said clearly in his heart.
"It's this thing. If the soul power cannot be restored, I won't be able to refine the Qi Source Pill that Mr. Lei hopes for." Xiao Yu admitted with an indifferent expression.
"Haha, what you said is true." Lei Tuohai smiled heartily, then looked at Xiao Yu, and said with some surprise: "However, you actually agreed to that girl Zi Yan to join the Ziwang Mansion. This is a bit strange.
Exceeded my expectations.”
"It happened for a reason. When I have time in the future, I will explain it to Mr. Lei. Besides, Mr. Lei originally wanted me to join the Purple Prince's Mansion. Now I can count on my wish." Xiao Yu said perfunctorily.
"Well, it's almost time, let's go." Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't want to say anything, Lei Tuohai didn't force him and reminded him with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Xiaoyu also nodded lightly, then took out a silver-white robe from the storage ring and simply put it on. On the left chest of the silver-white robe, there were two silver embroidered
of wine tripod.
"Second sommelier robe?" Looking at the silver robe Xiao Yu was wearing, Lei Tuohai had a strange look in his eyes, but after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved.
The Xianzong Continent is very large, and although the number of wine masters is rare, there are still many people who don't like to show up in public and take part in the so-called wine master examinations to obtain high-level certificates. They prefer to practice in seclusion and practice Xiaoyu calmly.
His temperament naturally cannot be too ostentatious.
"Let's go." After putting on the second sommelier's robe, Xiaoyu walked toward the street outside the inn.
Walking on the streets of Tianlong City, Xiao Yu and his party attracted much attention for no other reason than because Xiao Yu was wearing a second taster robe.
Sommelier robes are divided into three colors: silver, gold and purple. Only those who have successfully advanced to third sommelier are eligible to wear gold sommelier robes, and those who have been promoted to fifth sommelier can wear purple sommelier robes.
On both sides of the spacious street, eyes of hot curiosity and awe flashed from Xiaoyu or other bartenders from time to time. Some girls who were a little bolder and graceful were either smiling or admiring the generals.
His eyes were cast on the bartenders who were passing by, and they were all talking about it.
Xiaoyu, who looked indifferent, glanced secretly, and saw the fiery eyes on both sides of the street, and a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. Although Xiaoyu's mind is extremely mature, he is only a 21-year-old young man. As long as he is
Young people have a bit of unruliness, a bit of frivolity, and an inexplicable sense of vanity in their hearts.
"I'm here for the Sommelier Competition. I hope you won't disappoint me!" Xiaoyu's passion was ignited. He will win the Sommelier Competition no matter what.
Then Xiao Yu, Lei Tuohai, and Mu Wanlong followed the dense flow of people and walked towards the central square of Tianlong City. Not long after, the outline of a huge square appeared in front of Xiao Yu's eyes.
Xiaoyu took a look, and all he could see were dense crowds of people, and only the tip of the iceberg could be vaguely seen in the square.
"There are so many people!" Looking at the crowded crowd in front, Xiaoyu whispered.
"Well, the second round of the Sommelier Competition is the real competition. Naturally, the number of people watching will not be small." Lei Tuohai nodded.
Immediately, the three of them continued to walk forward, and soon they came to the front of the square. When they got closer, Xiaoyu realized what a huge crowd of people meant. The huge square was almost completely packed with people, and the scenery was quite spectacular.
Heavily armed troops are here to maintain order, and among them are strong men in the infant transformation stage. Every time a wine master competition is held, it is extremely popular, and strong men from all directions gather. If you are not careful, you will cause trouble.
, then Tianlong City, which is the foundation of the royal family, will also be attacked, and the royal family will have to be cautious.
Although the outside of the square was crowded with people at this moment, due to the maintenance of the Han Dynasty army, there was no riot. Instead, there was a long queue to buy admission tickets, and then walked into the entrance of the auditorium one by one.
"Hey, why don't you see the staff on duty at the wine pavilion?" Xiao Yu glanced around and found no relevant personnel at the wine pavilion. Even the other wine masters who rushed to the square to compete were also missing.
"Xiao Yu, why are you here? It's hard for me to find you!" Just when Xiao Yu was confused, a very familiar voice suddenly came from the side.
Confused, Xiaoyu looked to the side, only to see an old man wearing a golden sommelier's robe coming towards him with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Su, why are you here?" Xiao Yu asked, clasping his fists slightly and bowing slightly.
"I didn't make a special trip to wait for you, because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to find your way during the first time, but it turned out to be like this." Su Ji said with a smile.
"That's really troublesome for Mr. Su." Xiao Yu smiled apologetically, and then introduced Su Ji: "This is my friend, Mr. Lei Tuohai."
"It turns out it's senior Lei, and junior Su Ji is polite." Upon hearing Lei Tuohai's name, Su Ji's heart immediately trembled and he bowed respectfully.
"Well, no need to be polite, let's enter the inner court first." Lei Tuohai said calmly.
"Okay, Xiaoyu, senior Lei, please come with me." Su Ji gave Lei Tuohai a fist in awe, then turned around and led the three of them towards the street.
