Chapter 2688: Chapter 2688: Champion!

Buzz buzz buzz!

The Immortal Sword, Immortal Cauldron, and Immortal Bell suspended in the sky in front of Yang Luo began to tremble violently!

Immortal light radiated, the brilliance was dazzling and resplendent!

The entire venue was in an uproar, boiling and erupting!

“My goodness, this kid really did it! He truly refined three Immortal Weapons and Dharma artifacts within three hours and elevated them to high-level!”

“Unbelievable, utterly unbelievable, this is practically an impossible task!”

“It seems that a genius artificer has emerged in the weapon refining realm of the Four Small States!”

Over twenty thousand people present were cheering and shouting.

“Brother Yang is the champion!”

Bujie’s face flushed with excitement, and he raised his arms to cheer.

“Champion! Champion! Champion!…”

Under the lead of Bujie and Ning Jianfeng, everyone present followed with raised arms, shouting the word “Champion.”

Because the competition time was up.

Chang Songyin and the others also stopped refining weapons.

Chang Songyin had already refined three Immortal Weapons and Dharma artifacts, elevating two of them to high-level, and the last one to intermediate-level.

Wu Youchuan, Meng Haitang, Shen Huai’en, and Ren Yuanzhi all refined three Immortal Weapons and Dharma artifacts.

They elevated two of these Immortal Weapons and Dharma artifacts to high-level, but the last one remained at Basic Level.

As for Chen Xuanji, Li Moyao, Gu Xinglan, and Shang Chengyue, they refined two Immortal Weapons and Dharma artifacts, elevating them to high-level.

The last one was only half-refined, unable to form.

Anyone could see that Yang Luo had already surpassed Chang Songyin and the other nine, undoubtedly the champion.

Chang Songyin sighed deeply, lamenting, “Indeed, talents continue to emerge throughout the ages, each dominating for hundreds of years!

We are truly getting old!”

“Yes indeed!”

Wu Youchuan nodded with a sigh, “The future truly belongs to the young!”

Meng Haitang and the others sighed deeply too, though it displeased them, they were genuinely convinced and content.

Yi Jiuxiao laughed loudly, “Please wait a moment, next I and the referee elders will judge the weapons and artifacts crafted by the ten artifact refining masters!”

Yang Luo and Chang Songyin, along with the other ten, waved their right hands.

The weapons and artifacts floating in the air before them flew toward Yi Jiuxiao and the others.

Yi Jiuxiao and others accepted all the weapons and artifacts and began examining and discussing them carefully.

Everyone present waited nervously and anxiously.

Although they were certain Yang Luo was the champion of the competition.

Until the final results were announced, they could not be sure.

The time ticked by, minute by minute.

A full half-hour passed.

Yi Jiuxiao and the others ascended the podium and returned the weapons and artifacts to Yang Luo and the others.

Instantly.

Everyone present looked at Yi Jiuxiao and the others, waiting for the announcement of the results.

Yi Jiuxiao glanced at everyone in the audience and announced loudly, “Once again, I thank all of you for attending this artifact refining competition and giving us a wonderful and exquisite event!

Now I will announce the final results!”

He paused for a moment.

Yi Jiuxiao continued, “After our comprehensive evaluation with the referee elders!

I announce the winners of fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth place in this artifact refining competition are respectively!

‘Lingbao Immortal Monarch’ Meng Haitang, ‘Xuanbao Immortal Lord’ Shen Huai’en, ‘Hundred Refinement Immortal Master’ Chen Xuanji, ‘Divine Machine Master’ Ren Yuanzhi!

‘Immortal Treasure Master’ Li Moyao, ‘Treasure Appraisal Immortal Monarch’ Gu Xinglan, ‘Artifact Refining Immortal Monarch’ Shang Chengyue!”

Upon hearing Yi Jiuxiao’s announcement.

The sects of Meng Haitang and the other seven cheered.

“Ladies and gentlemen, now I will announce the top three!”

Yi Jiuxiao’s voice rose a few decibels, he declared, “The winner of third place is… ‘Fire Refining Master’ Wu Youchuan!

The winner of second place is… ‘Heavenly Dao Immortal Master’ Chang Songyin!

The winner of first place is… the young artificer prodigy from Huangzhou… Yang Luo!

Let’s congratulate the three with thunderous applause!”

Clap clap clap!…

More than twenty thousand people present started clapping, the applause was thunderous and deafening!

Cheers of joy resounded endlessly!

“Fellow cultivators, did you see? Brother Yang won the championship, first place!

Didn’t some people ridicule Brother Yang before, thinking Brother Yang was incompetent, telling him to quit?

And now? Isn’t this a slap in the face? Isn’t your face burning?”

Bujie laughed heartily and began to boast.

Ning Jianfeng said helplessly, “Brother Bujie, I say, is enough really enough? Would you perish without boasting?”

Xu Ying also said with irritation, “It’s Brother Yang who got first place, not you, why are you boasting?”

Bujie grinned and said, “Brother Yang is my friend, isn’t it thanks to my guidance and training along the way that Brother Yang achieved today’s glory?”

“Shameless!”

“Brazen!”

Ning Jianfeng and the others all raised their middle fingers toward Bujie.

At this moment.

On the high platform.

Yi Jiuxiao laughed loudly, “Now we will award the ten artifact refining masters!”

As he spoke, he waved his wide sleeve!

Three wooden boxes flew out from his sleeve, heading toward Yang Luo, Chang Songyin, and Wu Youchuan!

Yi Tianhong also waved his wide sleeve!

Seven wooden boxes flew out from his sleeve, heading toward Meng Haitang and the other seven!

Yang Luo received the wooden box, glanced at the Earth Core Mysterious Stone inside, and felt immensely excited!

Earth Core Mysterious Stone, in hand!

“Thank you, Emperor Da Yi!”

Yang Luo, Chang Songyin, and the others all bowed to Yi Jiuxiao in thanks.

“Brother Yang!”

“Brother Yang!”

“Brother Yang!”

Bujie and others rushed onto the podium.

Yang Luo took the Earth Core Mysterious Stone from the box, then said, “Brothers, you can divide these pills, weapons, Dharma artifacts, and natural treasures!”

“Haha, thank you, Brother Yang!”

“Indeed, following Brother Yang, there’s meat to eat!”

Bujie and the others laughed joyfully.

The others were filled with envy.

This kid is indeed generous, only taking an Earth Core Mysterious Stone for himself, and giving the rest to his friends!

Being friends with this guy is really something!

Just as Yang Luo was observing the Earth Core Mysterious Stone.

Chang Songyin and the other nine approached him.

The referee elders also walked over.

Even the representatives from Immortal Sects, Immortal Clans, Immortal Countries, and Holy Lands ran up the platform and came over.

“Little Friend Yang, have you thought about it, would you like to join our Heavenly Dao Sect? We sincerely invite you to join us!”

“Little Friend Yang, why go to the Heavenly Dao Sect? Come to our Qi Ling Valley instead!”

“Little Friend Yang, if you join our Xuanbao Palace, we’ll definitely cultivate you well!”

“Little brother, you might consider joining our Ouyang Family!”

“Little brother, our Qingxuan Sacred Land sincerely invites you to join us!”

“Little brother, East Cang Immortal Country would like to invite you to join us!”

…

All at once, everyone including Chang Songyin surrounded Yang Luo, extending invites to him, faces full of smiles, very enthusiastic.

Bujie, Ning Jianfeng and others were squeezed to one side, unable to approach Yang Luo at all.
