The next day, the semi-finals began. The content of the semi-finals was a continuation of the preliminaries. The two hundred people had to use the magic circle recorded in the ancient magic tower to create a piece of equipment.
The top ten of the two hundred people will participate in the finals. If their equipment reaches the excellence level, they will directly enter the finals.
For masters, excellence-level equipment is commonplace, but for an instrument maker, even a senior one, to make an exceptional-level equipment is almost as difficult as a master making legendary-level equipment.
Generally speaking, top weapon makers can create quasi-excellent-level equipment that is very close to excellence-level. If they are in excellent condition or perform beyond their level, they can create excellent-level equipment. The difficulty is not only that, but they also need to enchant the recorded magic circle.
!
This is quite difficult, and those who can reach the finals must be the best among the best.
The competition takes place in the arena. Two hundred people are drawn by lot and divided into four groups, with fifty people in each group. Each contestant must make an instrument in front of all the spectators. There are also special judges and supervisors. Once any fraud is discovered,
, will be disqualified from the competition, and will be publicly informed that they will be banned from participating in any activities or competitions organized by the Instrument Makers Alliance for life.
"Arthur, it's all up to you, don't let me down." Dio said earnestly. It was time to show his true skills in the rematch. Now his interests and "Arthur" have been firmly tied together.
There is a way to go back, one will be prosperous and one will be harmed.
Jia also said: "Master Arthur, please come on!"
"If you are willing to kiss me, I think I will be more powerful." Chen Rui teased.
Jia pretended not to hear, and there seemed to be a trace of blush on her face. Chen Rui was a little surprised, this enchantress could also blush? If it was acting, it seems that her acting skills have become stronger again, and she has almost reached the state of returning to her original nature.
Chen Rui walked off the field and came to the place where lots were drawn. He drew a "three" and was placed in the third group. This article was written by Qihang Update Team

"The third group?" A cold voice rang out. It was Savice, who raised the lottery number in his hand, and it turned out to be the third group.
"What a coincidence?" Chen Rui chuckled, "We meet each other everywhere in life, maybe we can enter the finals together."
Savich gritted his teeth and said: "Enter the finals together? Are you worthy? I will trample an ant like you under my feet in front of everyone!"
"Don't look down on others. You are just a self-righteous fool. Do you think you are a genius after just complimenting you?" Chen Rui looked at Savitche with disdain, "Maybe I can create an excellent one."
equipment."
"Can an ant who has come this far by luck be able to create excellent equipment?" Savitch sneered disdainfully, "Do you have the guts to make a bet? Just bet on the most important hands of the equipment maker, do you dare?"
Seeing Chen Rui's hesitant look, Savich used magic power and suddenly raised his voice, attracting everyone's attention: "Everyone! I now ask everyone to testify that I have made an agreement with this Arthur weapon maker.
Bet, if he can make excellent equipment in this rematch, I will cut off one of my own hands! If he can’t do it, I will cut off his hands!”
The people in the demon world are the most aggressive. Upon hearing about this exciting bet, the audience responded one after another.
Chen Rui frowned and said, "So cruel?"
"If you don't dare, quit the game now, and then crawl under my crotch like a dog!" Savich said viciously, as if he wanted to vent out the big loss suffered by "Chrysanthemum Can" that day.
Many people saw that the genius of the Imperial City had a problem with this unknown little tool maker, and he must have taken the opportunity to retaliate. With Savieche's reputation and popularity, it was obvious that he was bullying others.
There was basically no suspense about the first place in the previous round compared to the 192nd place. Besides, Savich was also a talented tool maker who was famous all over the imperial capital.
"As an instrument maker, I will not withdraw from the competition!" Chen Rui gritted his teeth: "Okay, I'm betting!"
Several masters at the VIP table frowned. One of them, Anderson, the president of the Shadow Empire Artillery Maker Alliance and known as the first master in the empire, said to Master Leo beside him: "Saviche is an ally after all.
For the talents he has cultivated, this kind of public revenge will inevitably affect the reputation of the alliance and himself."
Master Leo always defended his shortcomings and defended: "Young people are energetic only when they are impulsive. If you restrained them too much, you wouldn't have achieved what you have today. At most, after he wins that Arthur, the punishment for the bet can be reduced."
."
Anderson glanced at Leo, sighed, and said nothing more.
Rummenigge on the side recognized the "Arthur" who had bet with Saviceche as the young man who came to the imperial capital with him, and frowned even more. As expected, this young man participated in the competition and even entered the semi-finals.
No matter what, he is a talented person with great potential, and may be able to be used by the royal family. We must try to keep him in the future.
However, the Xhosa master at the back's eyes lit up. He took out the wine bottle regardless of his manners and took a big sip of wine, showing an expectant look: This competition is getting more and more interesting.
The competition began. Fifty production tables were set up in the huge arena. All other tools were prepared by the contestants. For a while, the sound of ding-ding-dong-dong kept ringing. For the audience, watching
It’s more lively than guarding the door, but for the weapon makers on the field, it’s no different than a battlefield of life and death where no blood can be seen.
At this critical moment, what is competing is not only technology, but also mentality and will.
The competition time of the first group was over. Several people covered their faces in pain. They were obviously losers. The equipment they produced were sent to the three masters responsible for identification according to their numbers.
There were two pieces of excellent equipment in the first group, and the highest-quality piece of jewelry was made by Robert, the favorite to win the championship. It seems that the upper-level champion is indeed extraordinary.
Among the fifty people in the second group, there was not a single piece of excellent equipment. Even the quality of the equipment was generally low. In fact, it was not because of lack of strength, but under huge pressure, many people were unable to perform at their best.
The third group of games started, and Savitche gave Chen Rui a few evil laughs and walked onto the production stage.
Savieche's name as a genius is not for nothing. His qualifications are indeed extraordinary. Coupled with Master Leo's careful guidance, as soon as he came on stage, his whole mental outlook suddenly changed. All bets and hatred were put aside.
All attention is focused on the leather in his hands. What he is good at is leather proficiency.
Measuring, cutting, bonding, sewing and other processes were completed in one go. Savich felt that he was getting better and better, and there were faint signs of super performance. He was overjoyed, stabilized his emotions, and a delicate leather armor gradually took shape.
Next is the most important part of the magic circle. What Savice drew in the ancient magic tower is a magic circle that enhances magic. Although there are small flaws in the enchantment that most weapon makers will see, it is still relatively good.
Enchanting completed.
"Saviche's work, the water magic defense is enhanced by 16%, the earth magic defense is enhanced by 17%, excellent level!" As the three appraisal masters unanimously passed, Savieche smiled proudly.
Master Leo at the VIP table only felt that he was more dignified. Although this leather armor was of relatively low quality in the Excellent level, it had already reached the Excellent level after all. Savich's level could be regarded as a top weapon maker.
.
President Anderson also nodded. Maybe Leo is right. Young people are energetic only when they are impulsive. Although Savich is domineering and arrogant, he does have real talent and learning. Since he is a genius, he always has a unique personality.
Bar.
Savitch cast his eyes on Chen Rui, and saw Chen Rui tapping the hammer in his hand absentmindedly, and glancing here from time to time, as if he was intimidated by the excellent equipment he had just produced. Now,
The works of other production stations are being completed one after another, and there is not much time left. Even if you really have the ability to make outstanding works, it will be too late.
You are such an ant-like character who still wants to fight with this genius! Savich's eyes become more and more fierce. He will cut off both of your hands and then capture you alive. Yes, he will capture you alive. You cannot let this enemy die.
It's too easy. The original humiliation must be paid back bit by bit!
Just when Savitch was imagining how to torture and kill Chen Rui, he suddenly saw Chen Rui smiling at him. The smile was full of contempt. It felt like... as if he was an ant and was not taken seriously at all. There was a faint feeling in his heart.
Uneasy feeling.
At this moment, the hammer in Chen Rui's hand suddenly accelerated and hit the sword shape held by the iron tongs in a chaotic manner. The huge crisp sound almost drowned out the rest of the production bench.
This sound also attracted several masters in the VIP table. The first master of the Shadow Empire, Anderson, who specialized in metal proficiency, stared attentively at the trajectory of Chen Rui's swing of the hammer, showing a look of emotion on his face.
Although Savieche's teacher, Master Leo, was proficient in leather, he was also a man who knew the goods. The look of surprise on his face became more and more intense. Master Rummenigge nodded slightly, and his previous worries had long been forgotten.
Master Xhosa took a few sips of wine and couldn't help coughing, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Rui's production table with excitement: What this guy filled out on the table is true! He is proficient in both systems! And this technique
, it’s quite close to... master level!
Savich sneered as he looked at Chen Rui who was "knocking" wildly. After reluctantly forging the sword into shape, he hurriedly began to enchant it. Finally, the dull long sword was finally made.
Is this his strength? It’s so ridiculous! I’m afraid he hasn’t even reached the quasi-excellent level! It seems that the previous worries are unnecessary.
"Ha ha!"
Savitch laughed wildly a few times and was about to speak when suddenly a voice rang out: "

Provided, bring that sword and show it to me."
The person who spoke was actually the leader of the alliance in the VIP seat, the first master of weapon making, Anderson. Savich's manic laughter stopped abruptly. How could such a guy's useless sword attract the attention of Master Anderson?
The person in charge who supervised Chen Rui's casting did not dare to neglect and immediately sent the sword to Master Anderson who was at the VIP table. Anderson gently stroked the sword and nodded slightly: "Good sword."
Savitch, who had been paying attention to the movements of the VIP seats, suddenly changed his expression. Master Anderson, who had always been demanding, could say the word "good sword". Could it be that this sword...
