Holy Swordsmith

Chapter 687 Two Conditions
Zhao Pingyuan shook his head with a smile. He could hear the perfunctory meaning in Ye Shi's words, but he was not angry about it.Not to mention Ye Shi's identity, Jiange's inner disciples are not much inferior to him, even if Ye Shi saved Zhao Ziyuan a few times, it was enough for Zhao Pingyuan to hold back his anger.Besides, this matter is his request to others, and others have the right to refuse. Zhao Pingyuan is not an autocratic monarch in the first place.

"Ye Shi, this matter is actually not difficult for you." Zhao Pingyuan said, not hiding Ye Shi at this time, and said what he wanted to ask.

It turned out that this time there was a sword-making competition between the Sunshine Country and the Moon God Country, which was held in the Moon God Country and hosted by a special envoy sent by Jiange.Those who cast swords must be human beings, and the judges are naturally the people of the Jiange and the dwarves. For the dwarves, they will not have any partiality towards the Moon God Kingdom just because they are in the Moon God Kingdom.

Originally, the swords of the two countries were different. Before the sixth-grade sword was fine, once it reached the seventh-grade sword, the power of the five elements or the power of the elements had to be sealed, which made it difficult for the sword-making competition between the two countries to proceed.In particular, a comparison in any country is a disadvantage to another country.However, with the people sent by Jiange, this problem has been solved. The special person sent by Jiange is a holy powerhouse.This saint-level powerhouse can make the power of the five elements and the power of the elements within a range no longer mutually exclusive, thus solving the problem of being suppressed.

It is precisely because of this that the sword-forging competition can continue. Just like the sword repair geniuses provided by Jiange Academy, this time the sword-forging competition is actually looking for sword-forging talents.Of course, even if you have already become a Jiange disciple, you can still participate in the competition. As long as you can get good results, it will be beneficial.In addition, being able to win is also an honor for a country.

Sun Yao Nation had lost three times in a row in the previous competitions, but there was no way around it. There were dwarves in the Moon God Nation, and these dwarves were born swordsmiths.Even though all the participants were human beings, some of these humans had learned from dwarf swordsmiths, and they were better than ordinary swordsmiths.Just because he has already lost three times, if he loses again, Zhao Pingyuan will not be able to calmly put down his throne and go to Jiange. Even if he does so, his future practice will be affected because of his lack of open-mindedness.

Therefore, Zhao Pingyuan has always been troubled by this sword casting competition. Originally, Zhao Pingyuan thought about Ye Shi and asked Ye Shi to participate together.However, although swordsmiths under the age of 40 are required to go to the swordsmith competition, in the entire country, there are still a few senior swordsmiths of the seventh rank under the age of 40. Let Ye Shi, the master swordsmith, go. I'm afraid it doesn't have any effect, so Zhao Pingyuan didn't think about it.

But this time Zhao Ziyuan came back and told him something about Ye Shi. For example, Ye Shi used the sword energy of the five elements to save her. This made Zhao Pingyuan immediately understand that Ye Shi's strength has definitely reached the seventh level of the sword Taste.Originally, Ye Shi was able to become a disciple of Jiange because of his amazing talent in sword casting. It is said that Ye Shi's sword casting ability is even stronger than that of ordinary seventh-rank senior swordsmiths, and what he lacks is the power of the five elements.But now, Ye Shi is already a sword cultivator of the seventh rank of swordsmanship, and has mastered a kind of power of the five elements, so it is very likely that the sword tools cast by Ye Shi are stronger than ordinary seventh rank swords.

At this time, Zhao Pingyuan can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Fortunately, Zhao Pingyuan feels that there is still a chance. After all, Ye Shi is a sword-making genius who was favored by Jiange.Considering this, Zhao Pingyuan will make a series of actions today, hoping that Ye Shi can agree, and as Zhao Pingyuan said, this is not difficult for Ye Shi.

Because Zhao Pingyuan's requirement for Ye Shi is to get a good ranking as much as possible, even if he doesn't get the first place, it's good to be in the top three, or even the top five.Zhao Pingyuan thought to himself, if Ye Shi agrees, then he will pay a certain price.

Ye Shi became silent, his thoughts turned quickly. Ye Shi still knew about the sword casting competition, and he only inquired about it in Droden City not long ago.It's just that Ye Shi was not very curious about the sword casting competition, nor did he take it to heart, so he didn't remember it for a while.Now that Zhao Pingyuan said this, Ye Shi immediately remembered, and Ye Shi smiled wryly, it seems that he is still destined to make swords.

However, he is a holy swordsmith, isn't he a swordsmith by profession, and all the shops he opens sell swords.Even in the past few days when he left the imperial capital, he still asked Du Ying to help sell a few sixth-grade swords. Du Ying was also very concerned about this. He used to work for Ye Shi, but now, he is helping Ye Shi Make up for the family and support their group.

"Your Majesty, you can go if you want, and I can guarantee that you will win the top three places in the sword casting competition, but I want Your Majesty to promise me two conditions." Ye Shi thought for a while and said.

"You say." Zhao Pingyuan took a deep breath. Although Ye Shi agreed to go and promised to win the top three, Zhao Pingyuan breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhao Pingyuan didn't dare to rest assured completely, because Ye Shi still had conditions, and there were two more. as many as one.But if Ye Shi is really fulfilled, he will try his best to fulfill these two conditions.

"The first condition, Your Majesty, you must give me rewards according to the ranking. For example, if I get No.3, you must give me 2 power stones to get No.1, you must give me [-] power stones to get No. [-] .[-], you must give me five hundred energy stones." Ye Shi stretched out his finger and said.

It's not that Ye Shi is greedy for money, but Ye Shi wants to gather the energy stones needed to upgrade the eight-star shop, so he can only exploit it as much as possible.And Zhao Pingyuan is obviously a master who can be exploited. Even if it is five hundred energy stones, it is a huge sum of money for the emperor Zhao Pingyuan, but Zhao Pingyuan can definitely get it.

Sure enough, Zhao Pingyuan struggled for a while, then nodded heavily, and said: "Okay, if you really do it, I will give you these rewards as you said. And they are all extra rewards, you The rewards obtained in the sword casting competition belong to you alone, and there is no need to distribute them to me."

To fight on behalf of the Riyao Kingdom, even if you get a victory reward, you must hand it over to Zhao Pingyuan, the emperor of the Riyao Kingdom, for redistribution. It's no big deal if you don't even keep a winner.Although doing so would cause other people's grievances, as the emperor, Zhao Pingyuan is fully qualified to do so.But now, Zhao Pingyuan told Ye Shi clearly that if Ye Shi could do what he said, not only could Ye Shi's request be fulfilled, it would even be better than imagined.

Of course, even Zhao Pingyuan cursed secretly at this time, and after calling Ye Shi a miser in his heart, he stopped thinking about it.As an emperor, he still has this bit of courage, and with five hundred energy stones, he can exchange for No. 1 in the sword casting competition, which is completely worth the money. Thinking of this, Zhao Pingyuan didn't laugh so much anymore barely.

Generally speaking, Zhao Pingyuan will not lose in this matter, but Ye Shi won. With five hundred energy stones in exchange for peace of mind, he can put everything down and go to Jiange, and he can also win glory for the Sunyao Kingdom, so that he, the emperor, can also leave behind a brilliant future. a sum.And Ye Shi's failure is nothing more than the old way. As for the energy stone, naturally it will not be given to Ye Shi who cannot complete the task, and Zhao Pingyuan will not lose.

And agreeing to Ye Shi's request can stimulate Ye Shi's fighting spirit and allow him to achieve better results in this sword casting competition. Zhao Pingyuan will naturally not be stingy.

"Okay, let me tell you your second request." Zhao Pingyuan said, and at the same time kept a mind in mind, the first condition is already so many energy stones, what will the second condition be.

Zhao Pingyuan only hoped that Ye Shi would not be too greedy, otherwise it would only destroy his impression of Ye Shi. At that time, although the status of the two remained the same, there would definitely be a barrier between them, and even directly affect each other. Even Zhao Ziyuan would not be exempt from the relationship between them, because at that time, Zhao Pingyuan would never let Zhao Ziyuan and Ye Shi get too close.

But Zhao Pingyuan thought too much, Ye Shi's second condition was not a matter of material needs, but asking Zhao Pingyuan to do a favor.Originally, Ye Shi had wanted to do this a long time ago, but because he had no excuses, and Zhao Pingyuan might not help if he said it, he didn't say it, but now, it was an opportunity.

"You asked me to find some strange or mysterious sword tools?" Zhao Pingyuan frowned. Ye Shi didn't ask for materials, which made Zhao Pingyuan heave a sigh of relief. After all, Ye Shi was not a particularly greedy person.But next, there were new problems, what did Ye Shi want to find these swords, and what was so special about these swords.

Ye Shi knew long ago that Zhao Pingyuan was not easily fooled, but if he wanted to search the whole country of Riyao Kingdom, Zhao Pingyuan would undoubtedly be of the greatest help.Because of the breaking of the dark wild boar, Ye Shi felt that time was running out, and this was the reason for the present scene.

"Actually, I have an elder who lost his beloved sword. It was a twelfth-rank quasi-sacred sword, but because it lost its original power, it is now only equivalent to a ninth-rank sword. This sword has some special features. It's also hard to tell the time, anyway, my elder is very concerned about this sword, so I have been trying to find it." Ye Shi paused for a while, looking at Zhao Pingyuan's expression, it seemed Zhao Pingyuan believed it a little, but he also had some doubts, at most he believed half of it.Regarding this, Ye Shi was not in a hurry, and said, "So, I hope His Majesty can help me with this, and let me know the news after hearing the news."

Zhao Pingyuan still had doubts about Ye Shi's words, but he couldn't say anything at this time. He nodded and said, "It's just that, of course there is no problem."
