The female officer didn't say anything more, turned around and got into the carriage, and then the carriage slowly drove away amid a pleasant sound of silver bells.
After watching the carriage leave, Chu Fan in the alley let out a breath.
The divine weapon Yuguang Mirror was damaged, and a large amount of life force was drained from himself. He came to this world inexplicably, and his heart had long been filled with anger and depression.
It was only the calmness and perseverance he had developed over a long period of time that kept him from exploding or losing his mind.
But he knew that his patience had its limits.
As the time in Liuli Zhong's lifespan shows less and less, his patience is also rapidly running out.
After a while, he calmed down and returned to Jufu Tower as if nothing had happened.
Time passed day by day, and the day for the imperial city competition was getting closer and closer.
Chu Fan didn't go anywhere these days, just staying in Jufu Tower. However, he was not idle. Instead, he carefully studied the weapon refining materials in the world of Daqian through the black market in Mao'er Lane.
In Room A, he writes and draws.
The black market sent many lists of materials, and he screened them one by one, and then copied out a list of materials he liked.
Looking at this list of materials, he thought to himself: "This is indeed a world where magic weapons exist!"
Although it was far from comparable to the Jiuzhou Realm, he was still slightly surprised by the abundance of weapon refining materials in the Daqian World.
For example, the main material for refining weapons, such as 'sunken water beads', he searched for in many markets near the Zhenwu Sect, but found nothing. He never thought that there was one here.
If he had bought the 'Sinking Water Pearl', the main weapon refining material, his magic weapon would most likely not be the Yuguang Mirror.
Because according to records in many ancient books, 'Sinking Water Pearls' are good at water vapor and can protect against thunder, so they have some slight advantages in resisting natural disasters.
For Chu Fan, it doesn't matter what the magical power of the magic weapon is, what's important is that it can withstand the catastrophe!
A magic weapon that cannot withstand the heavenly calamity, no matter how powerful the magic power is, is just a magic weapon. But once it has withstood the heavenly calamity, with the blessing of the power of the magic weapon, no matter how mediocre the magic power is, it can turn decay into magic.
Therefore, he is very pragmatic when it comes to refining weapons, and does not do anything fancy. Everything is just for overcoming the tribulation, and overcoming the tribulation is everything.
Dong Dong...
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Chu Fan immediately put away the list of materials on the table and said, "Come in."
Hearing this, the waiter pushed open the door and entered, putting plates of dishes on the table and saying, "Master Niu, these dishes are specially prepared for you by the chef."
"It's time to work."
Chu Fan casually rewarded the waiter with some broken silver.
The waiter got the reward and said with a satisfied smile: "You can use it as you please!"
After the waiter left, Chu Fan glanced at the food on the table.
These dishes are full of flavor and flavor, and you can tell at a glance that they are carefully prepared by the chef, but he is not going to eat them.
These days, he has detected seventeen different poisons in his food, most of which are chronic. There is nothing unusual at first, but over time, it may cause people to be in a trance, or cause physical weakness, or may cause Causes vomiting and diarrhea.
There is also a small amount that is acutely fatal and will kill you instantly if you eat it. Several litters of rats he used to test the drug were poisoned to death.
It was obvious that there was more than one group of people who poisoned him, and the back cook of Jufulou had been thoroughly exposed.
"It's said to be a competition in the imperial city, but it's actually started now."
After shaking his head and chuckling, Chu Fan took out the medicine bag, summoned the Yuguang Mirror, and started the courtesy exchange...
In a blink of an eye, the day came for the imperial city competition.
Chu Fan checked Liuli Zhong, which showed that he only had fourteen days left to live. He suppressed the irritability in his heart, sorted out his preparations in his mind, and after confirming that everything was correct, he walked out calmly. Room.
This time he walked towards the palace without any obstruction. The name 'Niu Wanjin' had already spread throughout the capital these days.
Arriving at the palace, the guards checked Chu Fan's gold medal and then led him into the palace.
The palace in Daqian is splendid and magnificent, with layers of pavilions and a sense of nobility in its luxury.
The guard leading the way turned and glanced at Chu Fan. He thought that Chu Fan would show some embarrassment when he first entered the palace, but he didn't expect that Chu Fan would just observe the palace with a calm expression.
"You can keep your composure!"
The guard said secretly and withdrew his gaze.
Under the leadership of the guards, Chu Fan finally arrived at the palace grounds after bypassing many pavilions and corridors.
Rather than saying this is a school ground, it is more appropriate to say it is a stage.
Because the central arena is paved with pure white marble and has complicated carvings on it, it doesn't look like a place for daily martial arts performances at all.
At this time, there was even a dancer singing and dancing above.
Surrounding the arena was a row of mahogany corridors, which were filled with courtiers watching the martial arts exercises and several warriors participating in the competition.
Chu Fan's eyes swept across several opponents, and then fell on the leader, the man in the dragon robe.
"Emperor Daqian..."
Chu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.
He knew that the middle-aged man in front of him, who looked handsome but seemed a little depressed, was the holder of a magical weapon just like himself.
He is also the strongest person in this world.
However, when Chu Fan carefully looked at Emperor Daqian, the emperor seemed not to see him enter the arena, but was focused on admiring the graceful dancer on the stage.
Others are not surprised and seem to have become accustomed to it.
The guard who led Chu Fan in pointed at a seat in the corridor in the distance: "Master Niu, please take a seat!"
Chu Fan nodded silently and walked into the corridor.
After sitting down, he found that the person sitting next to him was no one else, but Yang Jue, the first person he defeated in Jufulou.
He laughed for a while, and then took the initiative to say hello: "Brother Yang, congratulations on your victory in the first test!"
Yang Jue hurriedly returned the gesture with fists, then turned his face to the side in embarrassment.
Chu Fan looked at the opponents sitting across from him again.
Cheng Hu, a disciple of Lao Miao Zhu, stared at Lu Guanjie, the third son of the Lu family, while Lu Guanjie was secretly peeping at the young marquis Xia Ying on the other side.
Only Xia Ying sat upright without squinting.
Everyone just enjoyed the singing and dancing for a long time, as if they just wanted to enjoy the singing and dancing today. No matter whether it was the courtiers in the hall or the other warriors, there was no strange look on their faces.
Chu Fan was a little confused and thought to himself: "Did I remember the wrong date? No, the imperial city competition is today!"
After a long time, the dancer on the stage finished dancing and prepared to leave.
The emperor on the throne frowned: "Let's play music and then dance!"
The eunuch serving the emperor hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, everyone is here, the time has come, and the martial arts competition can begin."
