In the bustling lobby, Lin Xi and Lu Han sat opposite each other, chatting and laughing. They both had a good impression of each other.
"Brother Lu, I wonder who is the top player in the qualifying competition?" Lin Xi asked after drinking all the wine in the cup.
"He is a man named Qin Yu. He is not old, but his strength cannot be underestimated." Hearing this, Lu Han on the other side replied.
"Is it him?" Lin Xi's eyes narrowed slightly. Although a few people did not participate in the qualifying competition, Qin Yu was able to defeat the others and successfully win the prize. It is difficult for ordinary people to do so.
You know, he is facing some of the top people among the younger generation in the entire Tengyang Domain. It seems that he should pay more attention to this person in the future.
"Brother Lin, have you ever had a problem with him?" When this name was mentioned, Lu Han accurately caught a stern look in the other person's eyes.
"There was a little conflict, it's nothing serious." Lin Xi said nonchalantly.
"Oh, that's right." Lu Han nodded, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "Brother Lin, I think Qin Yu is ruthless and scheming. He is not a fuel-efficient person. You'd better be careful in the future.
"
Hearing the hint of concern in the other party's words, Lin Xi smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Brother Lu, for reminding me. This person is not a problem to me."
Lin Xi's words were full of confidence, but in Lu Han's ears, they turned into contempt, but he just shook his head slightly and said nothing.
"I wonder what Brother Lu is going to do in the future?" Lin Xi turned the conversation to the other party.
Hearing this, Lu Han thought for a while and finally said: "Although I didn't catch up with the qualification selection, I still want to go to Yongyuan Domain. Maybe I will gain something there."
Lin Xi nodded and said: "Compared with Yongyuan Territory, Tengyang Territory is still too small. If you want greater breakthroughs and development, you should really go to a wider place."
"That's right, maybe we can meet each other there then, haha." Lu Han nodded in agreement, and then said with a smile.
"I hope so." Lin Xi also smiled back. The first impression the other party gave him was very good, which gave him the urge to have a close relationship.
The chat between the two lasted for a long time. When night gradually fell, Lu Han also stood up to say goodbye.
Looking at the other party's leaving figure, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh. After being away from home for so long, this was the first time he met a friend who talked to him like this. But unfortunately, the paths of the two of them were completely different.
"I hope we can see you again in the future..."
…
a month later
In the room, Lin Xi's hands were constantly changing, and his eyes were fixed on the sword cauldron in front of him. Several spiritual fires could not help dancing. His eyes were very focused, and he did not dare to relax in the slightest.
During this month, Lin Xi, in addition to completing his normal daily practice, spent the rest of his time on sword-making. Now he finally had enough free time to study the secrets of sword-making in detail.
"receive!"
When the liquids in the sword cauldron were fused, Lin Xi turned back and took the spiritual fire into his body.
Immediately, a wave of spiritual energy followed and scattered in this space. The sword blank in the sword cauldron flashed with light. After a few breaths, it fell silent. Roads of light flashed past, and it was a sword.
A good spiritual sword.
Lin Xi picked up the spirit sword with open hands and looked at it intently.
The sword body is gray-white, exuding a hint of cold air. When Lin Xi forged this spirit sword, he incorporated a piece of snow orchid rock into it, giving the spirit sword itself an icy aura, which is very suitable for ice attributes.
Used by swordsmen.
"If it were Bai Shan, she would probably treat it as rubbish." Lin Xi looked at it for a while, and naturally thought of Bai Shan. After owning a frost sword, I am afraid that some ordinary Xuan-level spiritual swords would not be able to use it.
He will be looked down upon by the other party, let alone this yellow-level intermediate spirit sword.
Shaking her head and smiling, Lin Xi moved her wrist and put it into the spiritual ring.
"The time is approaching, and it's time to complete the swordsmith's assessment, but before that, I'd better sell the garbage in the spiritual ring..."
Putting away the sword cauldron in front of her, Lin Xi immediately opened the door and left the room.
Based on her memory, Lin Xi turned around a few streets and once again stood in front of Xingbao Trading Company. Above it was still the familiar purple gold plaque with large fonts and an impressive luster.
Without stopping, Lin Xi walked in and went straight to the counter. Standing behind the counter was still the woman in purple from before. Her appearance was beautiful, luxurious and not tacky, but gave people a sense of simplicity.
Feeling someone approaching, the woman in purple subconsciously raised her head, and a familiar face suddenly appeared in her eyes, which made her stunned.
But in an instant, her expression became extremely respectful, and she said with a smile: "It turns out to be Master Lin. Is there anything you need help with this time?"
The purple gold card in the opponent's hand was still lingering in her mind. The person who could possess this thing was not something a little shop assistant like her could afford to offend.
Moreover, she had heard before that the other party had passed the qualification selection of the Sword God Academy and would soon accompany the others to the Yongyuan Domain. His future prospects were absolutely limitless.
She could only look up to such a genius.
"I want to sell something. It may not be a good thing. I wonder if your bank will accept it?" Lin Xi smiled slightly and said.
"Oh? What is it?" The woman in purple was stunned and asked.
Lin Xi did not speak, but waved her right hand, and dozens of spiritual swords of different sizes and colors suddenly appeared on the counter, filling the space with traces of spiritual energy.
"These are all...spirit swords?" The purple-clothed woman stared blankly at the pile of spirit swords that appeared in front of her. She clearly remembered that the other party often came over to buy some spirit ores in the past month, and these spirit swords
Minerals are all necessary items when making swords.
Now that the other party had taken out such a number of spiritual swords, when she thought about the two things together, a shocking thought suddenly emerged from her heart, making her suddenly feel a little unreal.
She judged that most of the spirit swords in front of her were of the intermediate yellow level. Spirit swords of this level were very common in Xingbao Trading Company, but if these spirit swords were all made by such a young man...
"Miss?" Lin Xi said after the other party didn't speak for a long time.
"Ah?" The purple-clothed woman came back to her senses instantly, glanced at the other person, and then she came to her senses and hurriedly said: "Mr. Lin, please wait a moment."
After saying this, the woman in purple turned around and left the counter, heading towards the second floor.
Lin Xi looked at the other party's leaving figure with confusion, then shook her head and stood there waiting patiently for a while.
After a while, a middle-aged man quickly walked down from the second floor, followed by the woman in purple. Judging from her face, it was Han Tong who had served Lin Xi before.
"Mr. Lin, long time no see." Han Tong's voice with a smile came from a distance before he arrived.
"Shopkeeper Han, you're fine." Recognizing the other party, Lin Xi clasped her fists slightly and said with a smile.
"Haha, because I was too busy before, I didn't come in person for Mr. Lin's visits the last few times. I hope Mr. Lin won't be offended." When he came up, Han Tong looked at him with a smile and said.
"What are you talking about, Shopkeeper Han? I'm just here to buy some spiritual minerals. How dare I trouble Shopkeeper Han."
After looking at the opponent up and down, Han Tong suddenly felt that the opponent's aura was much better than two months ago. The speed at which his strength was improving was a bit too scary.
"Master Lin's talent is beyond my expectation. I'm afraid you are the number one in the entire Tengyang Domain."
Mentioning this matter, Han Tong's eyes once again had a hint of surprise. When he learned about the talent of the other party, Six Swords Emperor Hai, he was also very shocked. This completely shows that the origin of the other party is definitely not what it seems on the surface.
Simple.
"Shopkeeper Han is so complimentary. This junior is not worthy of this title." Lin Xi smiled and waved her hand.
"But it's a pity that I didn't see Mr. Lin in the ranking competition two months ago." Han Tong shook his head, seeming to regret this matter very much.
Hearing this, Lin Xi smiled lightly and did not explain the matter.
Turning his eyes to the pile of spirit swords on the counter, Han Tong also clicked his tongue at this moment. He clearly remembered that the other party bought a sword tripod from him two months ago...
"May I ask Mr. Lin, are these spiritual swords from your hands?" Although he guessed the outcome of the matter, Han Tong still couldn't help but ask.
Faced with this question, Lin Xi hesitated for a moment, then nodded lightly.
Seeing that the other party confirmed his words, Han Tong took a breath of cold air. The shock in his heart was indescribable. Regardless of the other party's age, even with these spiritual swords in front of him, it would be difficult for an ordinary swordsmith to cast them in just two years.
Within months, the casting was successfully completed.
What's more, the other party's age is still so young...
At this moment, Han Tong seemed to see a bright new star rising slowly in the Tengyang Domain with unstoppable momentum.
His talent in cultivation is comparable to that of a monster, and he also has considerable attainments in making swords. Such a terrifying young man has not been seen for countless years.
A touch of respect appeared on Han Tong's face, and he knew that the other person would most likely become a being that even he was in awe of in the future.
After calming down, Han Tong immediately said: "Mr. Lin, our Xingbao Trading Company purchased these spiritual swords at a price of 10,000 gold coins each. What do you think?"
Hearing the price, the woman in purple behind him looked at the other party in surprise, but did not choose to say anything.
"Ten thousand? So high?" Lin Xi was also surprised. Based on his judgment, it would be great if these spiritual swords were worth five thousand each.
"That's right, ten thousand. Mr. Lin, please give me the crystal card, and I will mark the gold coin for you." Han Tong smiled and nodded.
To make such a genius have a good impression of Xingbao Trading Company, no matter how many gold coins it is, it is worth it. He believes that even if the superiors know about it, they will not object to him doing this.
