Chapter 2682: Chapter 2682: Top Ten Contest!

“Oh my God, is this kid really the first in Group Ten?! And he’s actually a young man?!”

“This kid was able to stand out from over thirty thousand people, which is enough to prove his remarkable weapon refining skills!”

“Who exactly is this kid, why does he look so unfamiliar, I’ve never seen him before?!”

People started discussing loudly.

“I think I’ve seen this kid before!”

“I’ve seen this kid too; he is indeed called Yang Luo!”

“His combat prowess is also incredibly strong!”

Many people from Huangzhou recognized Yang Luo.

“Then who exactly is this kid?”

“Yeah, tell us quickly!”

People from other states hastily asked.

“A month ago, this kid in the Imperial City of Da Xia Immortal Country in Huangzhou, defeated the five great heavenly prides: Emperor’s Son of Great Wu, Emperor Da Mang, Beihuang Emperor’s Son, Taixuan Saint, and Heavenly Netherworld Divine Son!”

“I was there at the scene, witnessed this kid’s incredible strength myself!”

“This kid already has a bit of reputation in Huangzhou, known as an invincible existence among the younger generation of Huangzhou!”

“Although this kid is only at Golden Immortal Middle Stage cultivation, some speculate that even a Golden Immortal Late Stage expert may not be his match!”

Those from Huangzhou explained.

“My goodness, is this kid really that formidable?!”

“The key is, not only does this kid have such strong combat power, but his weapon refining skills are also strong?!”

“Is this kid really just an independent cultivator?! Is he really not a prolific disciple from some Great Immortal Sect, Great Immortal Clan, Great Immortal Country or Great Sacred Land?!”

Upon learning that Yang Luo already has a bit of reputation in Huangzhou, the crowd was even more shocked.

Especially those who had seen Yang Luo sign up for the competition a week ago and mocked him, now felt very ashamed.

At that time, they laughed at Yang Luo, saying he shouldn’t join to avoid embarrassment, claiming Yang Luo couldn’t place, let alone get first place.

But now, he’s already made it into the top ten; even without the final match, he’s still in tenth place.

Moreover, reaching this stage, he stands a chance to contend for first place.

At this moment.

Hearing the voices of discussion among the crowd, seeing the admiration and respect in their eyes towards Yang Luo.

Bujie laughed heartily with hands on his hips, saying: “Dear fellow cultivators, the fellow up there is my brother!

Keep your eyes peeled and watch how my Brother Yang defeats the other nine and seizes first place!”

Xu Ying patted his forehead and said: “Here he goes again!”

Ning Jianfeng chuckled and said: “Looks like he’s the one competing!”

Wu Qiansheng, Lu Yunqi, and Xia Chaoyang also shook their heads with amused smiles.

However, as Yang Luo’s brothers, they too felt proud.

At this time.

On the high platform of the central mountain.

Yi Jiuxiao and others were also sizing up Yang Luo, full of curiosity about him.

After all, Yang Luo was the only young person present.

“Divine Machine Master” Ren Yuanzhi stroked his beard and smiled, his gaze towards Yang Luo full of appreciation.

He spoke: “Never expected Huangzhou to produce such a young Artifact Refining Master!”

“Artifact Refining Immortal Monarch” Shang Chengyue also laughed: “Little Friend Yang managing to stand out from over thirty thousand people and break into the top ten, is no small feat!”

The two were representatives from Huangzhou’s Artifact Refining Sect, naturally having a favorable impression towards Yang Luo who came from Huangzhou.

Yang Luo cupped his hands towards the two and said: “The junior was merely lucky to beat the others; compared to the weapon refining skills of the seniors, the junior is certainly inferior!”

Ren Yuanzhi waved with a smile: “Little Friend Yang is truly humble; those who broke into the top ten are all renowned artificers of the Four Small States!

Little Friend Yang, being able to enter the top ten, is enough to prove your weapon refining skills are on par with ours!”

“Lingbao Immortal Monarch” Meng Haitang laughed and said: “I initially thought only three artificers from Heavenly State entered the top ten.

But unexpectedly, Huangzhou produced three artificers that entered the top ten as well.

This situation has never been seen in past weapon refining competitions.”

“Heavenly Dao Immortal Master” Chang Songyin looked at Yang Luo with a smile and said: “Little Friend Yang, regardless of what rank you achieve in this final match.

Our Heavenly Dao Sect warmly welcomes you to join.”

“Fire Refining Master” Wu Youchuan also smiled lightly and said: “Little Friend Yang, among all Artifact Refining Sects of the Four Small States, our Heavenly Dao Sect claims second, no one dares claim first!

If Little Friend Yang joins our Heavenly Dao Sect, we will definitely focus on nurturing you!”

Seeing Chang Songyin and Wu Youchuan of the Heavenly Dao Sect starting to recruit Yang Luo.

Other sect members also began recruiting Yang Luo, extending olive branches.

“A weapon refining genius as young as Little Friend Yang naturally has limitless potential, needing good Artifact Refining Sects for dedicated nurture to make a name in Jiuzhou Immortal Domain in the future!

And our Qi Ling Valley is definitely your best choice!”

“Little Friend Yang, you might want to consider our Xuanbao Palace; we sincerely invite you to join us!”

“Little Friend Yang, if you are willing to join our Divine Machine Sect, I can accept you as my disciple right now!”

Seeing various Artifact Refining Masters beginning to recruit Yang Luo.

The people around were dumbfounded.

What is happening?!

This final match, are we still going to compete, or why has recruiting started?!”

“Ahem, ahem…”

Yi Jiuxiao coughed lightly and said: “Fellow Artifact Refining Masters, I understand you are delighted to see genius, which I can certainly comprehend!

However, the competition is not over yet; it’s not too late to issue invitations after the match ends!”

Upon hearing Yi Jiuxiao’s words, Chang Songyin and others awkwardly smiled, ceasing further speech.

Yang Luo laughed and shook his head.

This time he came solely for the Earth Core Mysterious Stone, didn’t even consider joining any Artifact Refining Sect.

Yi Jiuxiao glanced at everyone present and announced aloud: “Everyone, the final match is about to start!

This final match will determine who the top ten are!

Please cheer for the ten weapon refining masters!”

“Go Heavenly Dao Immortal Master!”

“Go Lingbao Immortal Monarch!”

“Elder, I trust you will seize first place!”

The spectators cheered loudly, encouraging Chang Songyin and others.

“Brother Yang, go get them!”

“Ensure you seize first place!”

Bujie and others shouted excitedly.

Yi Jiuxiao smiled lightly and then said: “Next, I will announce the rules of the final match!

The final match has a time limit of three hours!

Within three hours, everyone must use limited materials to refine one Immortal Weapon and two Immortal Magical Artifacts!

Moreover, everyone has to elevate the refined Immortal Weapon and Immortal Magical Artifacts to high-level!

I and the referee elders will judge each contestant’s results based on the time taken and the grade, quality, and power of the refined weapons and artifacts, from first to tenth place!”

Upon hearing Yi Jiuxiao’s announcement of the rules.

Everyone present was astounded!

“Oh my heavens, isn’t this final match far too demanding?!

In three hours, one has to refine an Immortal Weapon and two Immortal Magical Artifacts, and elevate them to high-level?!”

Someone immediately exclaimed.
