After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger
Chapter 95 Treasure Hunting Contest
Today, Shengdan City is crowded with people, and the main streets are packed with people. Pei Yun and his group moved slowly with the crowd. After walking for a while, they arrived at the villa of the Murong family on Zhuxiang Street.
After settling down, Pei Yun did not go out shopping immediately. Instead, he sorted out his remaining materials and pills, preparing to sell some of the pills he had refined, and then go to purchase the materials needed for the sixth-grade pill...
The next morning -
"Miss Pei!"
When Murong Qian knocked on the door, Pei Yun had just finished refining a furnace of elixirs. She put away the furnace, opened the door, and asked with a smile, "Miss Murong, what can I do for you?"
"Miss Pei, I heard that the City Lord's Mansion will be recruiting disciples today at the Suzaku Square on the central street. We were thinking of going to take a look at the excitement. I wonder if Miss Pei is interested in going with us?"
"Then I'll go and join in the fun..." Pei Yun was also very interested in the grand event of Shengdan City recruiting disciples.
In addition to Murong Qian, there were also the two brothers Murong Yi. The three of them went out to the central street with Pei Yun.
"I heard that the City Lord's Mansion's selection of disciples has reached the final stage?"
"That's right. We just happened to catch up with the finals this time. It is rumored that the City Lord's Mansion will only recruit ten ordinary disciples this time. Of course, City Lord Wei will personally come to the scene to watch the competition this time. I wonder if he will accept a disciple on the spot..."
A few people chatted and came to Suzaku Square. At this time, the high platform in the center was already full of people. The four people did not expect the scene to be so lively. They had arrived an hour early.
Just as the four of them were hesitating whether to just stand there and wait foolishly or leave to go shopping in the medicine shop, a familiar figure walked over. Yu Li greeted Pei Yun with a smile on his face and invited them to sit with the Yu family.
Pei Yun couldn't refuse, so he took the three of them and followed Yu Li to the Yu family's seats. Because Yu Zhibei entered the finals, Yu Li and others as family members were able to book the inner stands in advance.
Yu Zhibei was also very surprised to see Pei Yun, and he sincerely thanked Pei Yun again. Without Pei Yun, he would have died in Guitou Mountain long ago, and how could he have entered the finals!
"Master Yu, you're welcome..." Pei Yun waved his hand and immediately changed the subject, "I wonder what the content of this final assessment is?"
Hearing this, the three people from the Murong family also looked at him with interest.
"In the final, the City Lord's Mansion asked one hundred of us alchemists to choose the materials ourselves, and then refine ten kinds of seventh-grade pills with different effects within three hours..." Yu Zhibei said as his smile faded, and he frowned as he looked towards the central platform not far away.
The competition was about to begin, and the servants of the City Lord's Mansion had already begun placing various herbs on the platform.
"This... is difficult!" Even an outsider like Murong Qian found it difficult.
"It's very difficult. Each alchemist can only take ten batches of materials. In such a short time, each batch must be successfully refined. This is a great test of the alchemist's alchemy skills and mental strength..."
“Young Master, you just need to do your best. There are more than 8,000 candidates participating in the selection. The fact that you have made it to this step shows that you are already a young generation with great potential. Even if you cannot become a disciple of the City Lord’s Mansion, I believe there will be many people who will recruit you…” Yu Li encouraged him with a look of satisfaction.
"Brother Yu, you are ranked in the top 100, which means you have defeated more than 8,000 people. How amazing is that!" Murong Lei said with admiration.
Yu Zhibei was amused by him, and his nervous mood eased, so he touched his head.
An hour later, people from the City Lord's Mansion also arrived at the scene, including the City Lord Wei. He was wearing a black and white Taoist robe and had a gray beard. He looked like a kind-faced old man.
After the competition officially began, one hundred alchemists went up to the platform one after another. The City Lord's Mansion stipulated that contestants could only use Xuan-grade alchemy furnaces, and the fire should be ordinary earth fire.
These alchemists all look relatively young, and their cultivation is basically at the Foundation Establishment Stage. There are also a small number of cultivators in the Golden Core Stage. After all, there is an age limit for the contestants, and they must not be over eighty years old.
Pei Yun is also an old hand at alchemy. He can roughly judge the level of those alchemists at a glance.
To be honest, Yu Zhibei's alchemy level is at the bottom among the top 100, so it is quite difficult for him to compete for the top ten.
"Hey! Look at the eighth man in black on the right in the second row. He's really quick and has already refined the second furnace..." Murong Qian couldn't help but speak out.
Pei Yun looked in the direction she said, and indeed, the man in black was refining the elixir very quickly. Moreover, she could see that his alchemy skills were very sophisticated and it was obvious that he had been refining elixirs for many years.
Everyone present also saw that the black-clothed man's alchemy skills were extraordinary, and he stood out from the competition. At this moment, everyone focused their attention on him...
In less than three hours, the man in black calmly refined ten pills and was the first to submit the pills.
When the stipulated time was up, nearly half of the contestants had not completed the refining of ten pills, and the rest basically finished refining in a hurry...
Almost everyone present held their breath, looking expectantly at the elders of the City Lord's Mansion as they judged the pills made by each contestant one by one.
In the end, there was no suspense. The man in black won the first place with the fastest speed and all his pills were of top-grade seventh-grade quality. Yu Zhibei unfortunately lost out.
When the City Lord's Mansion announced the final ten selected disciples, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the City Lord Wei stood up and walked in front of the man in black.
"He's going to accept a disciple! Lord Weicheng will definitely accept this person as his disciple!"
"This is truly a leap forward!"
"This kid is so lucky!"
"If you were younger than him and had his level, City Lord Wei would definitely accept you as his disciple. This is about strength, not luck..."
"That's right! My senior brother has been practicing hard for so many years, refining pills day and night, just for this moment today!"
Seeing Wei Cheng's actions, everyone started to get excited. The event entered its final climax. For a moment, everyone was talking about it, and the square was bustling with excitement...
"Your name is Sheng Wenjue?" Wei Cheng came to the man in black with his hands behind his back and looked at him carefully with a smile.
"Yes, I, Sheng Wenjue, greet the City Lord."
"Are you willing to become your teacher?"
"It is an honor for the younger generation. Disciple Sheng Wenjue pays homage to Master." Sheng Wenjue was overjoyed and immediately knelt down excitedly.
"Very good! From now on you will be my personal disciple..."
The scene of Wei Cheng coming to the scene to accept a disciple brought the whole event to a perfect end. There was a sensation among the crowd, some were excited, some were in awe, and of course there were some jealous gossips...
When the competition was over and the crowd dispersed, it was already dark. Pei Yun and his group watched the excitement all day and didn't have time to go to the medicine shop...
The next day, Pei Yun and his three companions went to visit the medicine shop in Shengdan City again...
"This Shengdan Pavilion is a store opened by the City Lord's Mansion in the city. The quality of the elixirs here is impeccable, but the prices are more expensive than those in private stores outside..."
"Miss Pei, do you want to buy some pills too?"
"I need to buy some medicinal herbs for alchemy, but before that I have to sell some pills first..."
"...Ms. Pei, you can actually make pills!" Murong Qian looked at her in surprise, and even Murong Yi and his brother looked at her curiously.
"I can only refine some low-level pills." Pei Yun said modestly.
"That's not bad. You are so young, not only do you have outstanding talent in cultivation, but you can also refine pills. Are all the disciples in your Beiqizhou so talented?"
At this time, Murong Qian and the other two thought that Pei Yun's alchemy skills were just average. After all, if he was really an outstanding alchemist, he would definitely participate in the grand event of recruiting disciples in Shengdan City.
"Thank you for the compliment, Miss Murong..." Pei Yun smiled as he walked into Shengdan Pavilion. As soon as he entered, he saw that the first floor lobby of the store was crowded with people queuing up. "This Shengdan Pavilion's business is really good!"
"Dear guests, these people in line are not here to buy things and pay the bills. They are alchemists who are preparing to participate in the treasure hunt competition. They are all here to get the invitation cards..."
The waiter in the lobby came forward and explained to the four people, "After purchasing something, guests can check out here..." He pointed to the counter not far away.
"Treasure Hunting Competition? It sounds interesting. Can only alchemists participate in this?"
"Yes, guest."
Pei Yun asked, "I have some pills that I want to sell. I wonder if the Shengdan Pavilion will buy them?" She planned to find out the price first.
The attendant looked up at Pei Yun in surprise, then said respectfully: "The guest may follow me to see the steward..."
Pei Yun nodded and turned to Murong Qian and the other two. "I'm going to go see the steward here first, and then I'll separate from you three. Miss Murong and Mr. Murong can wander around by themselves and don't have to wait for me. I'll go back to the villa by myself after I'm done..."
"The three of us don't have anything to do, so I wonder if we can go with Miss Pei to take a look..." Murong Yi suggested with a smile.
"……sure."
The attendant led Pei Yun and his party to the alchemy room in the backyard, where rows of shelves were placed, and on the shelves were displayed the sorted alchemy bottles...
After Pei Yun explained her purpose, Manager Fu looked at her carefully. Seeing that she looked very young, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you selling the pills you made yourself? Are you an alchemist?"
"Yes."
"...It's like this. We in Shengdan Pavilion generally only accept elixirs of the seventh grade or above, and the quality must be top-notch, so..."
Manager Fu politely refused. In his opinion, Pei Yun would definitely not be able to produce any elixirs that met their purchase requirements.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yun nodded in understanding, took out a bottle of medicine from his space ring and handed it to him: "Do you think this medicine meets the requirements of Shengdan Pavilion's acquisition?"
Manager Fu opened the pill bottle, and a scent of pills filled the air. Everyone was refreshed, staring at the pills that were poured out without blinking...
"Is this the Spirit-Concentrating Pill? It looks like it's of very good quality..." Murong Qian leaned in to observe it carefully.
"This is... Wuque Pill?!" Manager Fu was shocked. He carefully examined it again and said in disbelief, "Miss, did you make this seventh-grade Wuque Pill?"
Pei Yun nodded, while Murong Qian and Murong Yi stared at her with shining eyes.
"Miss Pei, you can actually refine the seventh-grade perfect pill!"
"Is this what they call being able to refine low-level elixirs? Miss Pei, you are too modest..."
Pei Yun said embarrassedly: "You two, this is indeed a low-level elixir. Even if it is of perfect quality, it is just a low-level elixir..." So she was just telling the truth!
Of course they knew that this was only a seventh-grade elixir, but how old was Pei Yun! Not only had he reached the Golden Core Stage at this age, but he was also an alchemist who could refine a seventh-grade perfect elixir. Such a genius was hard to find in Nanyuezhou!
"Miss, I see that you are already a seventh-grade alchemist at such a young age, and you can even refine perfect pills. Why didn't you participate in the selection of disciples for the City Lord's Mansion?"
Manager Fu had seen seventh-grade perfect pills before. There were still some people in the City Lord's Mansion who could refine such pills. What surprised him was that someone of his age could actually refine a seventh-grade perfect pill. This level was enough to beat the alchemists who participated in the disciple recruitment competition a few days ago.
"...You didn't miss the registration because you wanted to send Lei'er back?" Murong Qian's expression changed suddenly when she remembered something.
"Of course not!" Pei Yun hastily denied it. Seeing Murong Lei's uneasy expression, he explained with a smile, "I came to Nanyuezhou to travel, and then I will naturally return to my own sect. How could I stay in Shengdan City for a long time..."
Moreover, she has always focused on cultivation and supplemented it with alchemy. Becoming a disciple of the City Lord's Mansion is putting the cart before the horse. What's more, she has not even taken Elder Zhang of her own sect as her master, so how could she take someone else as her master?
Since the pills met the requirements, Manager Fu started bargaining with Pei Yun. Knowing that Pei Yun now had a large number of pills with quality ranging from superior to perfect, he believed Pei Yun's words even more and raised the price appropriately in order to befriend Pei Yun.
After the transaction was successful, Manager Fu also gave Pei Yun an invitation to the treasure hunt competition and actively recommended it: "This is the treasure hunt competition held by my City Lord's Mansion. You can use this invitation to participate in the seventh-grade alchemist competition. There is no age limit for the treasure hunt competition. As long as you have this invitation, you can participate. There are a total of five competitions from the ninth grade to the fifth grade. Each alchemist can only participate in one..."
"Is it also a live alchemy competition? The winner gets a treasure?"
"Yes, the top three alchemists will receive rewards."
"Miss Pei, you can definitely do it with your level!" Murong Qian was shocked when she saw her take out so many pills for trading. She just came to her senses and she was full of confidence in Pei Yun.
Pei Yun nodded excitedly, bowed to Manager Fu, and said, "Thank you, Manager."
She had just seen in the lobby that there were people queuing outside to get the invitation. She guessed that the invitation required some assessment beforehand, but the manager gave it to her without saying a word, saving her a lot of trouble.
"You are too polite, young lady. With your level, I am looking forward to seeing you shine in the treasure hunt..."
After Pei Yun sold the pills, she wandered around the Holy Pill Pavilion with the other three people. She bought many herbs needed for the sixth-grade pills, as well as some precious seeds. She had a lot more spiritual fields in her space, so she had to fill them up to avoid wasting them.
With this in and out, Pei Yun not only spent all the spirit stones he had earned from selling pills, but also lost a lot of money.
