Chapter 1172: What a Genius!


Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio


Numerous people were gathering outside the Equipment Refining Tower at this moment. Besides more than 10,000 Equipment Forging Grandmasters who had come from all over the Zhenyuan Celestial Realm, cultivators from countless other sects had also come here to enjoy the contest. All of them were curious about the rank of the Equipment Forging Grandmaster who represented their sects.


At this time, No. 1 of the Equipment Refining Ranking Chart was still Liu Zhen, who was deemed as a new genius in the equipment refining circle. As a 300-year-old powerhouse at the Initial Stage of the Human Celestial Stage, he had managed to become No. 67 on the Human List in the Heavenly Tripod List with his achievements in equipment refining.


In the crowds, several old men were looking at the ranking chart. Then, they turned to a young man and said with laughter, “Hah, hah, Grandmaster Liu Zhen, you managed to live up to everyone’s expectations! You will definitely be No.1 of this contest!”


“My lords, you flatter me! Countless Equipment Forging Grandmasters haven’t finished their contest yet. It is too early to say I will be No. 1 now. But…I guess I can enter the top 10,” Liu Zhen said with a faint smile.


“Alas! Grandmaster Liu Zhen, you are too humble! Ordinary Equipment Forging Grandmasters could never forge a Fourth-grade Equipment of 6 stars! Moreover, you are only 300 years old! You managed to achieve such an extraordinary accomplishment at such a young age! You are really the hope of the equipment forging industry in the future!” An old man said with a smile.


Liu Zhen smiled and silently agreed. He believed he was qualified to be praised in this way. Less than ten people had ever attained such an achievement as he had at his age and cultivation stage!


At this time, the old man looked at Liu Zhen and said reverently, “Grandmaster Liu Zhen, this time you have made a great contribution to earn so many places for our Dingtian Academy to enter the Waste Realm! So please be a.s.sured that you will receive 30 percent of all the things we obtain in the Waste Realm!”


“Thank you, Dean Lin!” Liu Zhen expressed his appreciation by smiling again.


He had helped the Dingtian Academy because he was trying to join the Equipment Refining Sect through his brilliant performance. Also he had made a deal with the Dean of the Dingtian Academy that he would get 30 percent of the things obtained by this academy in the Waste Realm after entering the top ten of this contest to win a lot of places for Dingtian Academy to enter that place!


Of course, other academies had also contacted him, but he used to be a student in the Dingtian Academy. So he decided to partic.i.p.ate in this convention by representing the Dingtian Academy.


“Hey, Dean Qin, you are also here! Where is your Equipment Forging Grandmaster?” At this time, Dean Lin asked as he looked at another old man who was not far away with a smile. Seeing that, the onlookers couldn’t help but smile wryly.


Everyone knew Litian Academy, Dingtian Academy, and Yunchen Academy were the top three academies in the Zhenyuan Celestial Realm. However, conflicts always existed between Dingtian Academy and Litian Academy, which was caused by something that had happened long ago. At that time, there was an academy of which the name was Dingtian Lidi Academy. When the Dean retired, disputes arose between the two deputy deans. At last, they established their own academies respectively, which were Dingtian Academy and Litian Academy.


However, people of the Dingtian Academy believed their academy was No.1 and better than Litian Academy, although they shared the same origins. The people of Litian Academy didn’t want to accept this prejudice. Therefore, more and more conflicts had acc.u.mulated between the two academies. Now they took all opportunities to ridicule each other.


Dingtian Academy found Grandmaster Liu Zhen, who ranked the first now. Therefore, Dean Lin, who was quite satisfied and confident, would never miss the opportunity to ridicule the Dean of Litian Academy. At this moment, Dean Qin Xiangtian of the Litian Academy was in a bad mood. He had decided to lead his team to partic.i.p.ate in this convention personally, which meant he had attached great importance in it. However, it was quite difficult to find a Fourth-grade Equipment Forging Grandmaster who was under 1,000 years old. He had managed to find one who was 600 years old with great difficulty. However, he didn’t expect that grandmaster would fail to keep his promise. He didn’t know the guy’s whereabouts.


He was also annoyed by another thing. Qin Sanli, who was his third younger brother and also one of the deputy deans of the Litian Academy, had told him someone wanted to marry his granddaughter Qin Susu. He didn’t expect that the young man who dared to marry his granddaughter was a frenzied thief who took all the materials and even the equipment refining workbenches from the Equipment Refining Convention. Now, this guy was being hunted down by the Equipment Refining Sect.


The Equipment Refining Sect was far more powerful than Litian Academy. Litian Academy could never ruin its reputation by having this notorious thief as the husband of his granddaughter. Therefore, Qin Susu’s marriage was ruined again. That was why he was in a bad mood at this moment. When he was ridiculed by his sworn enemy, he almost lost control of his temper.


“Elder brother, please calm down!” Qin Sanli reminded Qin Xiangtian.


“Humph!” Qin Xiangtian, who restrained his fury, snorted and left directly. Qin Susu also left, following him after staring at people of Dingtian Academy angrily.


Boom!


Just at this time, the ranking chart on the Equipment Refining Tower was changed suddenly. All the onlookers erupted!


“Holy sh*t!”


“What’s going on?”


“A…Sixth-grade Equipment?”


“This is totally impossible! A Sixth-grade Equipment and the evaluation result is 11 stars!”


“It should be a Sixth-grade Supreme Equipment. Even a Ninth-grade Equipment Forging Grandmaster is not able to make it!”


“Supreme Equipment is perfect and flawless! n.o.body could realize that except a King Refiner!”


“I guess something is wrong with this ranking chart!”


“Absolutely! First, n.o.body here could make a Sixth-grade Supreme Equipment! Then, how could someone make a Sixth-grade Equipment with a drawing of a Third-grade Equipment?”


“Right! Also, I’ve never heard the name of this guy before. How could a n.o.body become No.1 on the ranking list?”


“But…it is impossible for the Equipment Refining Tower to make a mistake!”


Many people were talking in disbelief.


The smile was frozen in the face of Dean Lin of Dingtian Academy. One second ago, he was making a display in front of Qin Xiangtian. Now, his No.1 had gone, which was so unexpected and disgusting! However, the one who was most unhappy should be Liu Zhen. Although he said he could enter the top ten, he had been confident to maintain first place. After all, Equipment Forging Grandmasters who were under 1,000 years old were quite rare. Among these people, those who were able to make a Fourth-grade Equipment with a drawing of a Third-grade Equipment were even rarer.


Moreover, the evaluation of the Sixth-grade Equipment made by him was 6 stars, which couldn’t be surpa.s.sed easily. But now his achievement was just like a joke in front of the new champion.


This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Liu Zhen roared to himself as he clenched his fists tightly.


Almost n.o.body in this world is able to make a Sixth-grade Supreme Equipment! He would never believe it!


“Oh? Someone’s No.1 is gone! Hah, hah, hah!” Qin Xiangtian laughed deliberately this time. Dean Lin’s face was even gloomier than before!


…..


At the same time, the Equipment Refining Tower was also in a mess. All the powerhouses of the big sects were totally stunned and couldn’t believe the result. A young man at the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage created a miracle in front of them by making a Sixth-grade Supreme Equipment with a drawing of a Third-grade Equipment, which was unprecedented!


“What a genius! He is a real genius!” Elder Li, the Deacon of the Equipment Refining Sect, said as his hands were trembling excitedly.


However, when he was about to rush up and ask whether Xu Que was interested in joining the Equipment Refining Sect, a big bang could be heard from outside at this moment.


Rumble! A ceiling of the Equipment Refining Tower became transparent. Then a giant ranking list appeared in the sky above Baihui City, which showed the Half-List clearly.


Yun Baichuan, who used to be No.3, had become No.4 now. All the people behind him, like The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome, also fell one place automatically. The area of No.3 became vacant. Meanwhile, a halo appeared in front of Xu Que, which was the same as the one that appeared in the Life and Death Ring. It meant he should write down his name which would be recorded on the Heavenly Tripod List.


People in this area were surprised.


“Does it mean this guy hasn’t entered the Heavenly Tripod List before?”


“Wait! No! This is right! If he is on the Heavenly Tripod List, how could his name be unknown to us?”


“My G.o.d! Where does this extraordinary genius come from?”


Many people kept talking about him.


Xu Que was also quite delighted. He never expected his Celestial Grade Disguise Puppet could not only change his appearance and aura, but also fool the powerhouses and even the Heavenly Tripod List, which asked him to fill in his name again!


“Heh, heh, I will have a lot of fun in this way!”


Xu Que smiled to himself. He didn’t write down his name but looked at the entrance of the Equipment Refining Tower. The entrance was open and new Equipment Forging Grandmasters were entering at this time.


“The time is now!”


Xu Que wrote down something with his Celestial Core Power in the halo. Then he rushed out of the Equipment Refining Tower by stepping on lightning. The next moment, he ignited a Divine Escape Spell and disappeared completely. His movements were so fast that all the onlookers were dumbfounded.


No one expected he could escape in such a way. And the scene of his disappearance was quite familiar!


The next moment, the onlookers were totally shocked when they saw the Heavenly Tripod List.


The Heavenly Tripod List (Half Celestial Stage):


No. 1: Li Xiaoran


No. 2: Ye Guhen


No. 3: The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Invincible


No. 4: Yun Baichuan;


No. 5: The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome.
