Xuan Zhigu did have a certain magnanimity. He walked in the front, his robes flowing, giving people the feeling that in this world, except for weapons, everything else had nothing to do with him. He was aloof and dedicated to making weapons.
Most of the dozens of followers behind him have reached the level of true gods, but this lineup makes people secretly admire him. He is indeed the number one weapon master outside the imperial city!
With the arrival of Xuan Zhigu, all the guests have arrived, and this "exchange" can begin.
Qiao Benjie appeared in the hall below. He changed into a slutty robe with an ink painting of pine and crane on his robe, and said loudly: "Welcome everyone to come and witness the great victory of the ancient master Xuan Zhi!"
Everyone in Baizhan City suddenly became noisy and protested. Although even they felt that Qiu Changtian was probably going to lose this time, it was a bit too much for you to say so directly.
But how could Qiao Benjie care about the attitudes of these people?
He smiled and raised his hands: "I don't need to say more, let's go directly to the topic. This time, we will divide the exchange into three rounds. In the first two rounds, the two masters will ask each other questions. In the last round,...
Your Excellency Bu Tianjue proposes the question!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar around him, and someone asked loudly: "The Bu Tianjue that Your Excellency talks about, is the Bu Tianjue the glory of weapons?"
Qiao Benjie smiled slightly: "Exactly!"
Qiu Changtian was also surprised: "He actually invited Bu Tianjue over..."
Su Yunji was also in the private room and explained: "Weapons Huabu Tianjue is one of the three masters of weapons in Tianlong City, and his level far exceeds that of Wangcheng! I didn't expect Qiao Benjie to bet such a big weapon this time.
We even invited him over for all the money."
As Qiao Benjie's words fell, a pale old man walked out of a private room on the third floor adjacent to Hua Tiannu, and waved slightly to the surroundings, causing a sensation.
Bu Tianjue didn't say anything, and went back after showing up.
Qiao Benjie smiled, his face filled with glory. This time he was determined to win, and he must ensure that the thirty-six royal cities of the Flower Goddess were victorious.
"Okay, now let's invite the two masters to appear."
Qiu Changtian explained to Ming Yuanyuan again, and then walked out under her worried eyes.
Qiao had already finished this quarter and gave up the patio to Xuan Zhigu and Qiu Changtian. Qiu Changtian clasped his fists slightly: "Master Xuan, I have long admired you."
Xuan Zhigu nodded lightly in return: "Hello, Your Excellency."
It's not because he is arrogant, but because he doesn't want to have an exchange at all. What kind of exchange is it? In fact, what can he have to communicate with Qiu Changtian? It will not help his weapon skills at all.
He was very tired of this kind of thing, and felt that by wasting time, he should be able to read more ancient books on weapons and come up with several more interesting ways to refine them.
Qiu Changtian snorted coldly in his heart and said: "Your Excellency is a guest from afar, please come up with the question first."
Xuan Zhigu did not refuse and ended the matter as soon as possible. As soon as he raised his hand, a follower came forward and handed over a wooden board: "This is my topic."
Qiao Benji appeared on the stage again. He read aloud Xuan Zhigu's title: "Limited to three main materials: a piece of Yunnum black crocodile animal bone, a piece of windchasing raccoon tooth, and a piece of double-horned fire owl horn."
"Requirements: Sword weapon. The blade can cut through a two-inch thick steel plate. The sword energy can be spread out ten feet, and it can also cut through a two-inch thick steel plate."
As soon as the topic was mentioned, there was a lot of discussion in the surrounding rooms. This topic seemed quite satisfactory, but those who truly understand the art of weapons know that it is actually very difficult.
According to the requirements of the question, the power of this weapon has reached the level of a true god. However, the main materials that are limited to use, the Black Crocodile of Cloud Marsh, the Wind Chasing Raccoon and the Two-Horned Fire Owl, are all at the concentration level.
In this world, when weapon masters build weapons, they often focus on the level of the main material itself and the level of the weapon they create.
Even most weapon masters are still unable to do this. Using the main materials of the concentration level, what they create is the soul-destroying level, and the power is somewhat reduced.
However, Xuan Zhigu's question requires increasing power, which is very difficult. Only the top masters in the imperial city have this ability.
When Xuan Zhigu came up with this question, some people immediately speculated: "Has Xuan Zhigu already reached the top level of the Imperial City?"
But someone soon denied it: "It should be just for this question. I'm afraid he won't be able to raise all the main materials to a higher level."
If each person comes up with a question, it will definitely be beneficial to the person who asked the question.
After Qiao finished reading the topic for this section, someone immediately presented two main materials and asked the two masters to choose. Xuan Zhigu wanted to show fairness and did not tamper with the main materials, so he generously let Qiu Changtian choose first.
Qiu Changtian didn't care and just took one.
Qiao left the show with a smile: "Okay, now let's invite the two masters to start."
In the hall, all kinds of equipment for making weapons have been prepared. Xuan Zhigu didn't want to waste time and started immediately. He took off several beast-hiding bags from his waist, opened them respectively, and strange spiritual fire spewed out from them.
The guests were amazed by just this ability to control it.
There was a Spirit Fire Slave Beast in each hidden beast bag. He turned his palm and grabbed a sledgehammer. He gave quick instructions, and his three assistants quickly began to prepare auxiliary materials.
There was a clanging sound, and he quickly started building it.
The combination of various spiritual fires and the processing of different materials seemed to be very confident and smooth.
But Qiu Changtian was much slower here. He prepared all the materials and arranged them neatly, and then checked them again.
For Qiu Changtian, this was to ensure that there would be no mistakes, but in the eyes of others, it was as if he was stumped by this question, taking the opportunity to delay and think about the solution.
The people in Baizhan City secretly shook their heads and sighed, but those outside guests burst into laughter.
Qiu Changtian was unmoved by external objects and began to process the materials. His work was very meticulous, and he used not many spiritual fires. There were only two kinds from beginning to end. In the eyes of others, this kind of blandness was different from Xuan Zhigu's.
There are many different types of flying up and down, and the differences are huge.
Qiu Changtian swallowed slowly, Xuan Zhigu had already started to forge the whole, and he hadn't finished processing the materials yet.
In the private room, Qiao Benjie drank tea and said to Hua Tiannu with a smile: "Qiu Changtian lost."
A knowing smile bloomed on the flower goddess's face hidden under the gauze.
About half an hour later, Xuan Zhigu's hands were flying, and all kinds of flames were spraying out. He controlled dozens of large and small hammers with his spiritual power, and sparks flew everywhere when they struck. The scene was extremely beautiful.
It has entered the final stage.
On the other hand, Qiu Changtian finally started to forge. He was hammering at it, but he seemed weak. He was controlling two kinds of flames and was burning here and there. He always felt that he lacked confidence.
After another half an hour, there was a roar from Xuan Zhigu's side, and a huge flame rose into the sky. He took out a long sword from the fire and threw it into a pool of beast blood, which joined
Various special materials are used, and a special fragrance wafts out from the white smoke.
He reached out and grabbed it, and the sword flew out: "It's done!"
There was a round of warm applause in the Tianshui Pavilion. Everyone found it pleasing to the eye. It felt like they were not watching a forging at all, but a grand performance.
At this time, everyone remembered Qiu Changtian on the side, but they saw the old fat man holding a long knife in his hand. He had finished forging it without knowing when, and he seemed to be a little faster than Xuan Zhigu.
"I'm done too." He said, putting down the long knife and silently walked off the stage.
Qiao Benji walked onto the stage with a winner's smile: "Now, let's start the assessment of the two weapons."
A life soul warrior came up. He first looked at Qiu Changtian's long sword, and then chose to pick up Xuan Zhigu's long sword first. The sword's body was like autumn water, which made people fall in love with it.
A two-inch-thick steel plate was already placed in front of him. He lowered his sword and easily cut the steel plate in half with a swish sound, like cutting tofu.
"Okay!" The surrounding people cheered, and there was warm applause again.
The Minghun warrior first put down his long sword and picked up the long knife forged by Qiu Changtian. Someone replaced it with another two-inch thick steel plate. He raised the knife and chopped it down hard.
The long knife fell down the steel plate into two parts smoothly.
But the audience only gave sparse applause. After all, Qiu Changtian is also the king of weapons in Baizhan City, so it is not difficult to do this. What truly reflects the power of this question is the release of sword energy at the end.
But the Life Soul Warrior was startled for a moment, because as a user, he clearly felt that it was easier to cut through steel plates with a long knife than with a long sword.
The Soul Warrior couldn't help but look at the long sword. It was ordinary. He felt suspicious in his heart: Am I wrong?
Qiao Benjie had already cleared the field, leaving a distance of more than ten feet, and then erected a two-inch thick steel plate ten feet away. Qiao Benjie signaled to the Soul Warrior: "Let's get started."
The Soul Warrior still followed the previous order, first picked up Xuan Zhigu's long sword, poured enough spiritual energy into it, and then swung it out in the void with a loud shout.
There was a sound like the roar of a dragon, and a huge sword energy, one foot wide, flew out from the long sword, shaped into the shape of a sword blade, and rushed out ten feet like lightning and struck the steel plate.
Click! The steel plate suddenly split into two halves.
"Wonderful!" The guests cheered loudly. They had witnessed with their own eyes the birth of a super powerful weapon. Master Xuan Zhi Gu lived up to his reputation!
The Soul Warrior nodded again and again, feeling very fond of this long sword, but he could only sigh: he was just a sword-tester, and there was no way that such a magical weapon would fall into his hands.
He put down the sword reluctantly, and just as he picked it up, Qiu Changtian walked up and whispered to him: "Don't use so much spiritual energy, just hold it back."
