The 72 Transformations of Xiaoming (Third Update)

  At the moment when the timing device stopped running, the information on the crystal screen was also fixed.

  All the guests looked at the ranking on the crystal screen, and a hint of absurdity flashed in their minds. They did not expect that the champion would be taken away by a third-rate apprentice again.

  Lin He Ping, who was originally the most promising to win, still lost to Chu Xiao's hands. This is a disciple of the sect master, and even the sect master's disciple has lost, which can only explain that Chu Xiao is too abnormal and demonic.

  "My god, even Big Brother has lost. It's unbelievable that there are people in this world who are even more perverted than Big Brother."

  Wei Changqing had an absurd feeling.

  In his heart, Lin He Ping had always been a freak of nature, no one among his peers could defeat him, and now he was actually defeated by Chu Xiao. Although this time's spiritual plant competition couldn't fully showcase the strength of a spiritual plant master, after all, Chu Xiao was only a third-grade spiritual plant apprentice. If the target of this spiritual plant competition were a ground-level or higher spiritual medicine, he would probably be helpless.

  But losing is still losing.

  When the competition time arrived, the voice of Judge Wei Xuan sounded in the minds of all the spiritual planters who were in spiritual communication. This was Wei Xuan transmitting his voice into the minds of all participating spiritual planters through a corresponding sound transmission array.

  "The competition is over, all spiritual planters can stop now."

  In spiritual communication, many spiritual practitioners will not grasp time accurately. If they enter a state of mind without distractions, they may even forget about time.

  Almost simultaneously, all Spirit Masters withdrew their mental intentions from the communication state, closed the formation in the first time, and looked at the crystal screen to understand their ranking.

  Every participating spiritual master's expression when seeing the crystal screen was almost consistent, first stunned, then shocked, and finally shocked, with a sense of extreme absurdity.

  They never thought that the scene of the alchemy competition would reappear in the spiritual plant competition, and it wasn't until then that they felt the feelings of the participating alchemists - extreme frustration and discomfort, as if they wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in. So many fifth-grade, sixth-grade, seventh-grade, eighth-grade, and even ninth-grade spiritual plant masters lost to a third-grade spiritual plant apprentice.

  Is this still reasonable?

  Depressed, extremely depressed!

  The resentment is very deep!

  Dressing up as a pig to eat a tiger is already quite something, but this is just too ridiculous!

  If it were said that Chu Xiao was a fifth or sixth-grade craftsman, the people present would have been more comfortable. However, the problem is that they were defeated by an apprentice. What does an apprentice mean? It means someone who is still in the process of learning and has not yet graduated!

  These master craftsmen were actually defeated by a newcomer who didn't even graduate from the spiritual plant department, if this gets out, where will they put their faces?

  On the platform, many alchemists who had experienced the previous alchemy competition looked at this group of spiritual planters with a sense of sympathy and shared suffering.

  Lin He Ping didn't rush to check the results after hearing the judge's voice, he was very confident that he would take first place. This extreme confidence and trust in his own abilities wasn't arrogance, he never was arrogant. For this Spiritual Planting Competition, he had even brought out nearly ninety percent of his true strength, which he believed was enough. Even if Chu Xiao could suddenly display the same kind of dark horse strength as in the Alchemy Competition, Lin He Ping trusted that his ninety percent strength would be enough to defeat him and easily take victory.

  That's his confidence.

  After putting things away, Lin He Ping looked at the green wooden vine in front of him and smiled warmly. He had a special feeling towards the spiritual medicine he had cultivated, as if it were his own flesh and blood, always wanting to protect its growth.

  He reached out to touch the lush, thriving vines of the Qingmu Yao Teng, and Lin He Ping finally tidied up his things in an orderly manner before closing the isolation light shield, which was almost a habit for him.

  As the light shield dissipated, the outside scene appeared before his eyes, and the sound also reached his ears. Lin He Ping's warm gaze swept around him once, finally falling on the crystal screen. The next moment, the smile on his face slightly solidified, his eyelids twitched, and a few unusual colors flashed in his eyes.

  "Perfect activation, eleven times the momentum, it's interesting, too interesting, I didn't expect that even with 90% of my strength, I was still defeated by you, Chu Xiao, ah Chu Xiao, you really surprised me. The dual-system master talent on the alchemy spirit plant, this can already be confirmed, specifically to what extent, must be tested by the teacher to confirm, coming here this time is really too great, unexpectedly finding a talent as terrifying as yours in this small Purple Cloud City, I think the teacher will be extremely happy."

  Lin He Ping let out a soft breath and quickly adjusted himself, his smile growing even thicker on his face.

  The growth rate is generally determined by the normal growth of Qingmu Yao Teng. Generally speaking, if it can reach more than ten times, it is a master-level standard. Of course, some people with extremely strong talent, even if they have not reached the master level, can do so, such as Chu Xiao and Lin He Ping, both of whom are like this.

  If Lin Ping goes all out, he can reach a growth rate of twelve times.

  Although he lost this game, he was quite regretful in his heart. However, he knew that if he hadn't hidden his strength, the outcome wouldn't have been like this. He had also underestimated Chu Xiao's talent and strength due to being overly confident.

  He couldn't help but cast his gaze towards the spiritual plant platform where Chu Xiao was located.

  At this moment, Chu Xiao also looked over, and the two of them locked eyes. As for the result on the crystal screen, he was also somewhat surprised, secretly rejoicing in his heart that if it weren't for his own Wood Spirit's Heart, perhaps he would have been the one to lose. Even so, the gap between the two wasn't particularly large. It seemed that a Sect Master's disciple was indeed a Sect Master's disciple, and truly not ordinary.

  "I now declare that the Spiritual Plant competition has come to an end, and the ultimate champion is Chu Xiao, a three-product Spiritual Plant apprentice."

  Under the announcement of referee Wei Xuan, the Lingzhi competition also came to a perfect end.

  The scene erupted in thunderous applause, giving Chu Xiao the final first prize. At this moment, no matter how unwilling they were, they had to admire Chu Xiao from the bottom of their hearts. He was able to stand out from so many masters and even disciples of the sect master, taking the first prize with absolute advantage. This strength and talent were beyond doubt.

  Moreover, Chu Xiao is only fifteen years old, at this age, his future achievements are boundless.

  With the end of the Ling Plant Competition, this apprenticeship banquet also came to a successful conclusion. As the protagonist of this apprenticeship banquet, Chu Xiao was even more astonishing, rising strongly and achieving a grand slam.

  Among the praise of many masters, Chu Xiao took over the pot of Jiuyin Lian from Bi Nainai.

  Two treasures were put away, Chu Xiao felt relieved in his heart, and it was probably what Bi Nainai and Bi Changchun had hoped for the most. Now that their wish had finally come true, they also witnessed the astonishing talent of the new disciple. The two old men laughed so hard that their mouths couldn't close, and their gaze towards Chu Xiao became even warmer.

  Chu Xiao's family was even more ecstatic, they were surrounded by reporters from several major news media in Ziyun City, interviewing them about Chu Xiao. Among these reporters, there was even the presence of 'Bai Xiaosheng', the largest and most mysterious news media of the Xiu Jian Alliance.

  'Bai Xiao Sheng' is extremely famous in the Cultivation Alliance, belonging to an extremely powerful organization that combines news and intelligence. There's almost nothing Bai Xiao Sheng doesn't know about, with tentacles everywhere. Apart from open professional journalists, there are all sorts of undercover investigators existing in every industry and corner, with Bai Xiao Sheng's undercover agents almost omnipresent.

  Apart from open news media organizations, 'Bai Xiaosheng' also trades in all sorts of secret intelligence. Whatever you want, the Bai Xiaosheng organization can collect it for you.

  Bi Changchun and Lan Cuihua, as influential figures in Ziyun City, masters of alchemy and spiritual plants, with high status, recruiting disciples is not a trivial matter. So many big shots are present, so it's very normal for news media reporters to come on site to record images and conduct interviews.

  It can be foreseen that without the need for guests to publicize, these media reporters will be able to promote the two games to a household name level, and Chu Xiao will also make a name for himself.
