rince kneel..."Cao Xiaowan was just like a crazy woman, as if she had been deeply insulted, constantly shouting.Just then, a large foot appeared out of nowhere and slammed into her stomach with a thud..."I…"

Ruderen's face flushed red with embarrassment. Now, the outcome was completely different from what the Lu family had initially intended.

Although he was the elder, he didn't dare to announce anyone as the winner at this time.

But if it remains unannounced, the results are there for all to see, and no amount of public scrutiny can change them.

And just as he was caught in a difficult situation, a cold light flashed through the air, and a shining sword appeared before everyone.

Compared to the previous magical swords, this sword was filled with killing intent and its sword energy soared like a rainbow, exuding endless pressure that even surpassed the Zhuxie Sword.

Wen Ding's expression changed drastically, looking at the sword in mid-air: "This... This is the legendary divine weapon, the Dragon Slaying Sword!"

When the three words "Dragon Slaying Sword" were uttered, a commotion erupted among those present.

As is widely known, the battle that made Kunlun Divine Weapon Lu Chao Zong famous was the forging of the divine sword Zhàn Lóng.

Since then, the sword has been kept in the Lu family's collection and no one has seen it again until today.

This sword truly deserves its title as a divine weapon. The moment it was drawn, it immediately suppressed the Zhuxie Sword, holding it down firmly. Although the semi-divine sword also has the word "god" in its name, it's worlds apart compared to a genuine divine weapon.

After the shock, a new question arose in everyone's mind: weren't they competing by refining their own spirit swords

How come you even brought out the Dragon Slayer Sword What are you trying to do

Ye Bufan beckoned and retracted Zhuxie Sword, his eyes burning with intensity as he looked at Lu Zhaoyang before him.

"What do you mean"

Lu Chaoyang's face twisted into a crafty grin: "Nothing, of course I want to compare swords!"

I have to say, he was truly prepared for this competition. This Dragon Slaying Sword was prepared beforehand, just in case, and now it's actually being used.

Wen Ding asked in a deep voice, “Master Lu, this alchemy competition is about swords forged by yourself. Bringing out the Zhānlóng Sword isn’t quite appropriate, is it”

Lu Zhaoyang laughed: "As I said before, this Zhulong Sword was also forged by me. Is there anything wrong with that"

Moreover, the competition rules only state that you have to use your own spirit sword and don't specify when it has to be forged!

"You... are utterly shameless!"

Wen Ding generally didn't want to have a direct confrontation with the Lu family, but at this moment he was completely enraged by their shameless actions. He couldn't suppress the anger burning within him.

If the competition allowed for the use of previously crafted spirit swords, then what was the point of forging one on the spot They could just bring out their previous powerful artifacts and compare them. More importantly, this sword was entirely the work of Lu Chaozong, having nothing to do with Lu Chaoyang at all.

Others were also shocked by the shamelessness of the Lu family, and there was an uproar in the audience.

"What's going on The agreed-upon rule was to forge items on the spot, how come you even brought out pre-made artifacts"

"That's right, the most crucial thing is that we don't even know who forged this sword. If anyone could just casually wield a divine artifact and win the forging competition, wouldn't it be ridiculous"

"It's unfair, it's so unfair! Brother Ye has already won, Brother Ye is the Kunlun Artifact God…"

"Be quiet, all of you!"

Lu Chaoyang's expression darkened as he faced the audience below. "The rules were set by my Lu family. Are you trying to make an enemy of the Lu family"

His words fell silent in the room. No one dared to speak because the Lu family was powerful and not someone ordinary cultivators could provoke.

Secondly, many cultivators would still rely on the Lu family to forge their weapons in the future. At this point, they couldn't afford to provoke trouble.

Furthermore, they didn't have a close relationship with this young man before them. Justice alone wouldn't be enough to make them stand up against the Lu family.

Wen Ding was so angry that his beard quivered. The old man just opened his mouth to speak when Ye Bufan stopped him with a look.

He looked sharply at Lu Chaoyang: "What you mean is that the competition rules don't restrict the refining time of magic weapons Can previously refined ones be used"

"I think the Alchemists' Competition is about testing the strongest skill of an alchemist, rather than occasional on-the-spot performance."

Lu Chao-yang declared with conviction, "My Lu family has always upheld fairness and justice. If you have a divine weapon, you can certainly bring it out to fight."

This guy was confident, even though this young man in front of him kept refreshing his understanding. He didn't think the other party could possess a divine weapon.

Forging divine artifacts demands an extremely high level of mastery from the blacksmith. Most importantly, one needs corresponding celestial treasures, which are incredibly rare and unattainable by just anyone. Not everyone is capable of forging them.

That's why, in his eyes, he had already completely gained the upper hand. Though it seemed that the Lu family won rather dishonorably, it was still better than losing.

It can be proven that he was destined to be disappointed. Ye Bufan gave a cold smile: "Since that's the case, then I shall do as you wish!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand, and a dazzling pearl shot up into the air. For a moment, the entire stadium was filled with lightning and thunder, and the overwhelming might of the artifact enveloped everyone.

“This…this…this bead is actually a divine weapon…”

"My goodness, it's still a lightning attribute divine weapon! How overpowered is that…"

"Artifact, it's truly an artifact! This young man actually has an artifact!"

When the Heaven Thunder Orb appeared, everyone present was stunned.

Wen Ding was shocked and opened his mouth wide. No wonder Ye Bufan didn't let him speak just now, it turned out that he also had a divine weapon, one with extremely powerful power.

The first to be affected was Lu Chaoyang. The smug smile on his face froze instantly. He had originally thought that as long as he took out the Dragon Slaying Sword, he would be invincible, but he didn't expect the other party to have a divine weapon too.

Furthermore, the Tianlei Orb appears to be of a higher grade than the Zhanlong Sword, possessing greater power. Thunder-based artifacts are extremely rare and boast formidable combat capabilities that cannot be matched by ordinary artifacts.

If the Dragon Slaying Sword were to clash with the Sky Thunder Orb, he himself would know what the result would be.

Hold on!

He hurriedly exclaimed, "No way, this artifact isn't going to work!"

Ye Bufan glanced at him with sarcasm: "Didn't you just say that As long as there is a divine artifact, you can take it out. Why can't you do it now"

Lu Zhaoyang gritted his teeth and said, "What I'm talking about refers to spiritual soldiers. Yours is clearly a magic weapon. It doesn't belong to swords and isn't within the scope of spiritual soldiers, so it doesn't conform to the rules of this competition."

He also knew his excuse was almost shameless, but there was no way he could lose this alchemy competition.

The audience erupted in murmurs of outrage, condemning Lu Chaoyang's shameless behavior.

Ye Bufan, however, remained unmoved and let out a cold laugh once more.

"You're saying I need to bring out a divine weapon, and it has to be a blade"

Lu Chaoyang directly ignored the jeers, insults, and accusations from the audience below. He said with a thick face, "Of course, that way you have the qualifications to compare with me."

He thought that even if the other party happened to have one artifact, it was absolutely impossible to have a second one, let alone a blade-type divine weapon.

Ye Bufan flashed a mocking smile at him, retracted the Heavenly Thunder Orb with his hand, and then a golden light shot out from his palm, hovering in mid-air.

In terms of artifact tiers, Dragon Tooth belongs to the top level, far exceeding Heaven Thunder Orb in rank.

The moment it appeared, a golden light mixed with boundless pressure instantly enveloped the entire arena. The Dragon-Slaying Sword, which was just suspended in mid-air, trembled violently and then plopped to the ground with a soft thud.emy will represent the Tianfeng Empire in the newcomer ranking tournament. Now, we return to the city and, before the Emperor and Empress, I formally announce this decision."After finishing his speech...
