Shortly after dawn in the morning, the carriage from Ji Le Dan Pavilion arrived in front of Zhang Xiaozu's door.
Liu Zhihuan got out of the car with a pair of smoky dark circles under his eyes.
In fact, it doesn't look smoky, it is smoky at all.
He stayed up all night and kept refining elixirs in the alchemy room of the Paradise Alchemy Pavilion.
A total of thirty-two furnaces were made, and thirty-two furnaces exploded, so that the black smoke in the alchemy room never dissipated.
The number of times he fried the furnace that night was much more than the total number of times he had fried the furnace in the past three years.
If Zhao Dongqing hadn't stopped him by drinking, this number would have increased.
Liu Zhihuan came uninvited and came so early, which made Zhang Xiaozu a little annoyed, because he and the Blackpool Holy Beast had just met in the front garden, and before they had a chance to talk, they were ruined by Liu Zhihuan's arrival.
But it’s hard for him to say anything.
Hearing Liu Zhihuan's call at the door, he and Ye Mingyue pretended to be taking a walk and walked out of the garden.
"Ahhhhh..."
"Brother Zhang wakes up early in the morning to be accompanied by a beautiful woman and enjoys the flowers in the garden. It is such a blessing and so elegant."
When Liu Zhihuan saw Zhang Xiaozu and Ye Mingyue coming out of the garden, he immediately stepped forward and greeted them warmly.
Zhang Xiaozu smiled and cupped his hands, then looked at Liu Zhihuan's haggard face, pretending to be surprised and asked: "Brother Liu looks a little haggard. Is it because he didn't sleep last night?"
And he had already guessed the answer in his mind, thinking that Liu Zhihuan must have stayed up all night studying his alchemy skills.
As for the research results, no need to ask, the answer is already written on Liu Zhihuan's face, it must be a mess, very bad.
"Hey..." Liu Zhihuan shook his head and sighed, and said: "I was very inspired yesterday when I watched Brother Zhang make alchemy. When I returned home, I impatiently tried to experiment with the alchemy furnace. As a result, I failed repeatedly and the furnace exploded until dawn.
It’s really embarrassing.”
He said it bluntly and was not afraid of Zhang Xiaozu's jokes.
In fact, with his cultivation at the fourth level of the Star Catching Realm, if he didn't sleep for just one night, he would naturally not feel tired. The mental loss was really too great, so he was very tired and haggard.
He racked his brains and studied all night. As a result, the more he practiced, the more confused he became. The more the alchemy furnace exploded, the louder it became. In the end, he was about to have a nervous breakdown and go crazy.
Therefore, Zhao Dongqing has sternly warned him that from today until the end of the alchemy competition, he is not allowed to study Zhang Xiaozu's alchemy skills. It is best not to think about it, otherwise he will definitely suffer from it.
He might even have destroyed himself before the game even started. "Haha, it doesn't matter."
"I got used to it after I exploded. I used to do it for a month."
Zhang Xiaozu waved his hands and smiled.
It is true that he has blown up furnaces quite a lot, but it is true that he has blown them up for a month.
When Liu Zhihuan heard Zhang Xiaozu's comfort, the corner of his mouth twitched twice.
However, although he doubted Zhang Xiaozu's words, he was not particularly doubtful, because he felt that if he could practice the alchemy skills like Zhang Xiaozu, it would be normal for him to explode the furnace for a month.
At Liu Zhihuan's warm invitation, Zhang Xiaozu and Ye Mingyue boarded his carriage.
Liu Zhihuan took the two of them to have an exquisite breakfast first, and then went to the examination room for the Dansai preliminary competition.
The examination room is located in Tianfu Square, the largest square in the center of Paradise City.
Zhang Xiaozu thought that there were not many participants, because his registration number was 433, and it was already the last two days when he signed up, and there were not many people left.
An individual came to register, but when he arrived at the examination room, he realized that he was completely wrong.
There were so many contestants that the streets leading to the square were almost crowded.
At least there must be five or six thousand people.
Only then did Zhang Xiaozu realize that his number plate was the registration number of the specially invited alchemist, and that there was another ordinary number plate for participating in the preliminary competition. The pretty registrar forgot to tell him when he signed up.
However, his race number plate can also participate in the preliminary round.
And there are high-level benefits.
Just sit in the first row.
You can also get priority entry.
"Hey, have you heard? A specially invited alchemist named Zhang Dayong has also signed up to participate in the preliminary competition."
"seriously?"
"Absolutely true!"
"Fuck! There are only fifty places in the finals. Why is he, a specially invited alchemist, coming here to rob us?"
"Show me your ability and patience."
"If you show off your abilities, in my opinion, he is a bitch, and he doesn't deserve it!"
"Shh! Keep your voice down. If he hears it, he will definitely suffer a lot from you."
"snort!"
In the noisy and crowded streets, almost all the contestants were discussing the same topic.
Zhang Xiaozhu originally wanted to use the subtle state of mind to get some news or something, but when he heard everyone whispering greetings to his eighteenth generation of ancestors, he realized that he had done something outrageous, and he couldn't help but put the subtle state of mind away in embarrassment.
Get up, shrink your spiritual consciousness and hearing to the smallest range, and do not listen.
"Haha, Brother Zhang, you seem to have made everyone angry."
When Liu Zhihuan saw Zhang Xiaozu's extremely embarrassed expression, he couldn't help but grin with joy, and the depressing mood in his heart suddenly eased a lot.
What made him unhappy was that Zhang Xiaozu had a tiger pattern painted on his face, so he couldn't see clearly his face and expression. Otherwise, it would have been more exciting.
Zhang Xiaozu glared at Liu Zhihuan in displeasure because he thought he was too loud.
He is most afraid of being recognized now, otherwise he is guaranteed to become the focus of the audience immediately.
It's just the focus of insults.
"Be quiet."
At the entrance of the square, at the temporary checkpoint, a shout from the invigilator came.
The sound is extremely penetrating and reaches every corner of the long street instantly.
The noisy crowd immediately fell silent.
"Excuse me, is the specially invited alchemist No. 433, Zhang Da Yong, Zhang Alchemist here?"
"You are a specially invited alchemist and have priority to enter."
"Please??????????????????????????????????????? first to the examination room."
The invigilator's voice echoed throughout the street.
Zhang Xiaozu's face turned black bit by bit.
His face twitched uncontrollably.
"Pfft...haha..."
Liu Zhihuan wanted to hold back his laughter and save some face for Zhang Xiaozu, but he squinted and saw two tigers, one big and one small, on Zhang Xiaozu's face, gazing at each other affectionately, and then twitching each other. This funny scene was so cruel
It made him laugh.
His laughter burst out from his mouth, carrying a large amount of saliva, all spraying on the back of the head of the person standing in front of him.
The man turned his head and glared at Liu Zhihuan angrily.
The smile on Liu Zhihuan's face suddenly turned awkward.
However, his mind moved quickly and he immediately thought of a solution. He turned to look at Zhang Xiaozu and said, "Master Zhang, the invigilators are calling you. Come over quickly."
Zhang Xiaozu: "..."
He didn't want to answer the question at first, thinking that he would enter the venue with everyone later, but he never expected that Liu Zhihuan would be so mean.
Wow!
The surrounding contestants suddenly became excited. They all looked at Zhang Xiaozu with hatred, and then whispered abuse.
Liu Zhihuan had already stepped aside, assuming a posture of "I'm not familiar with him."
Ye Mingyue also silently distanced herself from Zhang Xiaozu.
Zhang Xiaozu had a dark face, gritted his teeth, and walked forward.
The crowd in front immediately made way for him, but the eyes of hatred and hatred were like looking at the enemy who killed his father.
Zhang Xiaozhu felt as if he was being publicly executed.
If looks could kill, then he would have been cut to pieces by a thousand cuts.
