"The extra high-quality energy pills will be your medical expenses. Nan Xin, take the jade pendant and let's go."
Zhang Yifeng is not a bully, but there are some people who obviously don't have much status and are just working, but they still have dog eyes. For such people, Zhang Yifeng doesn't mind giving a small lesson.
"Brother Zhang..."
Nan Xin was a little touched that Zhang Yifeng spent fifteen top-quality energy pills just to vent her anger.
"This is a bit too expensive..."
"It's not expensive. The best energy pill is of little use to me."
On the side, Bai Jingjing listened to Zhang Yifeng's words and hesitated, seeming to say that you are of no use, you can give it to me and Nan Xin, don't waste the natural resources like this!
"oh."
Nan Xin still took the jade pendant. She followed Zhang Yifeng obediently and left the jade shop in a swagger.
The man with a big belly looked at Zhang Yifeng's leaving figure with a very ugly look in his eyes.
…
"Little handsome guy, you bought something for Nan Xin, is it only fair that you also buy one for me? But I don't want anything, so just give me the best energy pill."
On the way, Bai Luoluo couldn't help but speak.
Zhang Yifeng didn't pay attention to Bai Luoluo at all. If he didn't buy something for one person, he must buy it for another person. This may be fair to Bai Luoluo, but it's unfair to Zhang Yifeng. Why should others judge his money?
Zhang Yifeng gave Nan Xin gifts because Nan Xin had always done things for him and was very kind to him. He owed Nan Xin. But he did not owe Bai Luoluo, but Bai Luoluo owed him.
However, Zhang Yifeng still prepared Guyuan Dan for Bai Luoluo, but he planned to give it to her only when he left the Kunlong Mountains, not now.
"Go back. I want to continue practicing the hammering technique."
Zhang Yifeng walked straight back to the inn.
When Bai Luoluo saw that Zhang Yifeng didn't speak, she just pouted without complaining. She actually understood that Zhang Yifeng didn't owe her anything.
Half an hour later, Zhang Yifeng continued to swing the spiritual energy hammer in the room.
After his enlightenment, he became more comfortable swinging the hammer.
This is the epiphany of the ideological realm!
The day passed quickly, and the semi-finals of the Forging Conference began.
On this day, the number of blacksmiths participating in the competition decreased, but the number of spectators increased.
If you think about it, you can understand that in the preliminary round, a thousand people forged together, and the forging level was mixed, and there was nothing interesting at all. But in the semi-finals, the number of contestants was reduced to one hundred. Naturally, these one hundred people can stand out among the many blacksmiths.
He is not a mediocre person, and he has more or less achieved certain achievements in blacksmithing skills.
The higher the level of contestants, the more people will come to watch.
Nine hundred of the thousand forging furnaces on the field have been removed. The competition venue was determined based on the last quota. Therefore, Zhang Yifeng's group was assigned to the 19th forging platform.
No. 19 is relatively close to the front and not far from the podium. Fortunately, Zhang Yifeng always wears a bamboo hat, so he is not afraid of people from Luosheng Palace seeing him.
However, Zhang Yifeng glanced at the podium and frowned slightly.
He discovered another acquaintance, a man with a big belly.
At this time, the man with a big belly was sitting in the corner of the podium, chatting happily with the people next to him.
Zhang Yifeng understood right then that this big-bellied man was actually one of the judges.
But Zhang Yifeng didn't take it to heart because he had absolute confidence in his own strength. Especially after his enlightenment!
Soon, the second round of forging competition began.
"I didn't expect that we could also use Forging Furnace No. 19. It's so cool!" Qin Kuang rubbed his hands passionately.
"Haha, thanks to Brother Li."
"Yes, I can get such a good ranking this time, thanks to Ali, Ali, since we can get to this point, we can't hide it anymore, let's use that thing!" Qin Kuang said solemnly.
Zhang Li nodded: "Well, I hope I can get a good ranking."
After Zhang Li finished speaking, he opened a pocket, revealing a piece of black and somewhat luminous metal.
This is fine iron.
Although fine iron is not a material for forging top-quality weapons, it is still a very good metal. The quality of weapons forged with it is definitely far higher than that of the same level.
"Ali, you have the best blacksmithing skills, so you can use this fine iron." Qin Kuang looked at Zhang Li.
Zhang Li did not delay, after all, they were able to get the 19th place all thanks to him.
Soon, Tension began to forge.
Looking at the tension forging, Zhang Yifeng shook his head. With the level of tension forging, using fine iron is a complete waste.
But since it was someone else's material, he was too embarrassed to say anything more.
"Ali is very talented. He learned blacksmithing two years later than me. I didn't expect him to be better than me. Hero, let's just watch here. When Ali is finished forging, let's try our hand at it casually." Qin.
Kuang said to Zhang Yifeng who was on the side.
Zhang Yifeng nodded and said nothing.
During the tension forging, ten judges also came down to watch their forging in person. The forging conference not only looks at the work, but also the attitude. Watching it up close will give you a better idea of the status of each blacksmith.
Soon, the pot-bellied man came to Zhang Yifeng and his party.
Zhang Yifeng was wearing a bamboo hat, so the pot-bellied man could not recognize him. But Nan Xin and Bai Luoluo, who were standing behind them, were not wearing bamboo hats.
In order to make it easier for the two of them to watch, Zhang Yifeng specially asked a few people to follow him.
As soon as the pot-bellied man came over, he recognized Bai Luoluo and Nan Xin, and immediately grinned.
"Beautiful lady, what a coincidence."
"Why are you everywhere?" Bai Luoluo said angrily, and then her face changed. This big belly is the judge... That's Zhang Yifeng's behavior yesterday.
When the big-bellied man saw Bai Luoluo's expression change, he seemed to have thought of something: "You two are here, so that guy was here yesterday too? That's interesting." The big-bellied man glanced at Zhang Li and the others.
Then his eyes fell on Zhang Yifeng, who was wearing a bamboo hat.
Although Zhang Yifeng was wearing a bamboo hat, he still recognized him.
"Boy, you thought I wouldn't be able to recognize you if you were wearing a hat. I didn't expect you to come to the forging conference, haha, okay, very good."
The pot-bellied man laughed a few times, then turned and left.
"Hero, do you know the judges? That's great." Qin Kuang and others didn't know about Zhang Yifeng's holiday with the pot-bellied man, but they were a little happy.
Zhang Yifeng said calmly: "I don't know each other, but I have a problem with him."
The smiles on the lips of Qin Kuang and the other three people instantly froze.
Then Qin Kuang smiled nonchalantly: "You don't have to think too much, hero. Anyway, we didn't think about what ranking we could really get. We are already very satisfied if we can enter the top twenty."
…
A few hours later, Zhang Li's work was forged.
It is a dagger, and fine iron is relatively precious. They also know that even if they use fine iron, they may not be able to get a good ranking. Because other blacksmiths will definitely use good materials. So they only used a small part of the fine iron.
