Dear Lingshi

"When my mother was alive, she would often make this noodles for me. After she passed away, I never tasted that flavor again. Until one day I found that the noodles made by Lao Wu tasted exactly the same as my mother's. So whenever I was in Yuanhuan City, I would come here every now and then to eat a bowl of noodles." Gong Yuanhuan ate noodles while chatting with Lu Yunsheng in a calm tone.

"You also know that my father is a very busy man. My mother died when I was very young, so there was no one to discipline me. If I accidentally make you unhappy in the future, please don't be angry." Gong Yuanhuan looked at Lu Yunsheng and said in a low voice.

"Here we go again!" Hearing Gong Yuanhuan's sentimental words, Lu Yunsheng's head started to get bigger again.

"Okay." Lu Yunsheng didn't know how to answer and could only nod.

"Are you annoyed with me? Tell the truth." Gong Yuanhuan stared at Lu Yunsheng and suddenly asked.

"It's not annoying, it's really not annoying!" Lu Yunsheng looked at Gong Yuanhuan's straight eyes and said quickly.

In fact, he was also wondering in his heart that he was not annoyed by Gong Yuanhuan. On the contrary, he actually liked this girl's personality.

But for Bai Yushu, he instinctively wanted to keep a distance from Gong Yuanhuan.

"Oh, I don't want to think about it anymore. My mind is confused again." Lu Yunsheng shook his head to himself and started eating the noodles in the bowl again.

Gong Yuanhuan did not ask any further questions.

After the two finished their noodles, Gong Yuanhuan handed Lao Wu twenty copper coins and walked back with Lu Yunsheng.

"Thank you for accompanying me today. This is the happiest day I have had in all these years." Gong Yuanhuan said to Lu Yunsheng with a smile as they walked on the road.

"It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning." Lu Yunsheng replied politely.

"Here's a gift for you. I bought it at the trade fair today." Gong Yuanhuan said as he suddenly took out a palm-sized, purple-gold wine gourd.

Before Lu Yunsheng could refuse, Gong Yuanhuan smiled and said to him, "Use this to store wine in the future. When you drink, think of me every time you take a sip. Hahaha."

"Take it. You're so fussy. You don't have the decisiveness you showed yesterday at all." Gong Yuanhuan said immediately as he looked at Lu Yunsheng's hesitant expression.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yunsheng had no choice but to take it.

"This is the first time I give someone a gift." Gong Yuanhuan said in a good mood.

After hearing this, Lu Yunsheng sighed in his heart. When he picked up the gourd and took a look, he discovered that there was a painting of an extremely beautiful female cultivator on the gourd. Who else could it be but Gong Yuanhuan?

"How is it? Does the painting look like me?" Gong Yuanhuan asked with a smile.

"Like!" Lu Yunsheng responded in a low voice, tied the gourd gently around his waist, then walked beside Gong Yuanhuan with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

February 12, Yuanhuan City.

The equipment refining competition officially begins today.

The rules of the competition are that the weapon refiners on both sides need to use the same precious ore to refine a spiritual weapon-level flying sword each within one month. After the refining is completed, the two swords will clash against each other, and the one with the higher degree of integrity of the flying sword will win. The cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage are not allowed to participate, but will serve as referees.

Since these three competitions were of great importance and directly determined the number of people on both sides who would collect the spiritual tea for enlightenment, both sides sent out the strongest weapon-refining masters in their respective forces even if they were only refining flying swords of the spiritual weapon level.

On the side of the cultivators from the four regions, it was naturally the Ma Buchang from the Jianshan Region who took the field personally.

As the head of Wanren Pavilion, Ma Buchang has not only reached the perfect Nascent Soul stage, but is also a renowned weapon refining master. The magic weapons he refines are the object of competition among all the Nascent Soul cultivators.

This person represents the cultivators from the four regions to participate in the competition, and he is undoubtedly the best candidate.

The cultivator sent by the Six Realms cultivators was a descendant of Yue Shan from the Yanfeng Realm. This cultivator was also in the Perfect Nascent Soul stage.

Refining spiritual weapons was an easy task for the two of them.

But according to the rules, the spiritual weapons that are refined need to be used against each other, so the two must use the same materials to refine the best of the best, without any flaws.

Such rules may seem simple, but they are an extremely rigorous test of the two people's weapon-refining skills.

The venue for this competition is a temporary viewing area specially built by Changjing Jishuo Building in a square.

This kind of competition is also open to the public, and those independent cultivators can enter and watch the battle after purchasing an admission ticket.

At this time, after the six great gods had jointly inspected the treasure mines, furnaces and other equipment, they announced the official start of the competition.

This will ensure that no one can use cheating methods during the competition.

Of course, with six great gods in charge on the spot, no one dared to have such little thoughts.

Ma Buchang looked at the dozen or so ordinary treasure mines in front of him and felt a little troubled for a moment.

Because these treasure mines are just some extremely ordinary treasure mines, they can only refine some low-grade spiritual weapons on weekdays. If you are lucky, you can only refine medium-grade spiritual weapons.

When two swords clash, the higher the grade, the better. At this moment, Ma Buchang wished he could use these precious minerals to refine a top-grade spiritual weapon.

But even a good cook cannot cook without rice. It is impossible to refine a top-grade spiritual weapon with just these scraps of copper and iron, unless he has the ability to turn decay into magic.

However, when he looked up at the descendant of Yue Shan not far away, he felt a little relieved.

Because the man was looking at the treasure mine in front of him with a difficult expression on his face.

Time flies, and thirty days have passed.

Normally, it would take an average refiner a few days to successfully refine a spiritual weapon, but it took these two Yuanying stage refiners a full month.

Just when the allotted time was about to expire, the two men stopped what they were doing.

Looking at the two flying swords in front of them that were emitting precious light and sword beams, it was obvious that they had surpassed the level of mid-grade spiritual weapons.

"Let's start the sword test!" As the host, Gong Chen immediately stood up and said to the two of them.

Upon hearing this, the two men each picked up the flying sword they had made and walked forward.

Without any delay, the two men urged their flying swords to collide directly in the air.

"Ding!"

After a sharp and piercing noise, the two flying swords returned to the hands of the two men again.

The two men took the flying swords and placed them respectfully in front of the six great masters in the God Transformation Stage.

After these Divine Transformation cultivators checked, Gong Chen finally announced to all the cultivators in the field with a smile on his face: "The flying sword refined by Jianshan Territory Ma Buchang has six cracks in total, and the flying sword refined by Yanfeng Territory Yue Hong has seven cracks. I declare Jianshan Territory Ma Buchang the winner."
