Don't worry, let me start a game first

"Congratulations to you, Junior Brother Du. I heard that you are so successful that you are rated as top five. I have some Zuixian Cake that I just bought here. I heard that it was made by a low-ranking [mixer] from the third level of the Miaoxuan Academy of Culinary Arts. Do you want to try it?"

As soon as he returned to his residence, Lu Rang came to Du Ji with snacks to get close to him.

His eyes were fixed on Lin Qianxing and never moved away.

Let’s not talk about the value of a puppet that has achieved this level of enlightenment.

The level of cherishment alone is very high.

He has lived for so many years, and he has only seen less than ten such puppets before and after, and most of them are achieved through long-term cultivation. The two are not the same thing at all.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu, for your kindness, but I don't want to eat right now." Du Jipi replied with a smile.

After saying that, Duji wanted to close the door and see off the guests.

"No, I know it might be difficult for you to make a puppet, but I'm not in a hurry." Lu Rang said, pulling on the door frame.

Lu Rang's strength was really strong. No matter how hard Du Ji tried, he couldn't close it at all. Who could believe that he was actually a student participating in the competition on behalf of the Music Academy.

"Senior Brother Lu, how about we talk about the puppet thing back to the academy? Now I'm competing and I don't have time to think about that." Du Ji said perfunctorily.

"Then it's settled. We must have a good talk when we return to the academy. I promise that your reward will not be reduced. Our Lu family has money!!" Lu Rang said.

After saying that, he put down the food box containing Zuixian Cake at lightning speed and retreated without giving Duji a chance to refuse.

Du Ji looked at the food box containing Zuixian Cake, his expression became speechless.

Lin Qianxing opened the food box. Inside were pieces of exquisite pastries. From the energy fluctuations emanating from them, Lin Qianxing could tell that these were not simple ingredients.

"It's a pity that I don't have a body and can't eat. If I can find a chef to get me some flavored Origin Qi, I might be able to taste it." Lin Qianxing sighed.

"Teacher, what do you think I should do?" Du Ji said helplessly: "If I don't agree to Senior Brother Lu, he will definitely come back to bother me later."

"What's so annoying about this? You should improve your skills quickly and help him make a puppet later. Just leave the spiritual enlightenment to me." Lin Qianxing said, "Look at how he looks like he's not short of money. If you give him a good deal, we will be rich in the future."

"Teacher, wouldn't this be good?" Du Ji said hesitantly.

"What's so good about it?" Lin Qian'an said nonchalantly: "He pays you to ship the goods and trade. Don't you also have a part-time job as a [vendor]? Isn't this the way to practice the truth and improve the Taoist job? when?"

Du Ji still seemed a little hesitant, but Lin Qianxing said: "Don't worry about that, come and taste it. After you eat it, describe it to me. I haven't eaten in a long time, and I am a little curious about its taste."

Hearing this, Du Ji had no choice but to sit down in front of Lin Qianxing obediently and act as a mukbang for him.

While Lin Qianxing was watching the mukbang, Miao Xuanxue was in the palace.

An old man with gray hair and an extremely old appearance came to a forbidden area under the Miaoxuanxue Palace.

Within this forbidden area, sitting cross-legged was an armored body made of jet black metal.

Even if it is sitting cross-legged, it is nearly thirty feet tall and looks extremely majestic.

This is the foundation of Miaoxuan Academy, [Armor Body of the God of War].

In the progression sequence of the [Craftsman Apprentice] Taoist profession in the Miaoxuan Academy, there is a third-level Taoist profession named [Armor Body Master].

As the name suggests, it is a Taoist profession that specializes in making body armor.

In the former Miaoxuan Academy, there was an [Armor Body Master] who built the [Armor Body of the God of War] in front of him, and then reached the fourth level and went to the upper world.

The old man stared at it for a long time, with longing and nostalgia in his eyes.

This old man's name is Lu Wangping, and he is also a third-level [Armor Body Master].

He also has another identity, that is, the deputy palace master of Miaoxuan Academy.

Today, he is more than 400 years old, and his body has reached the extreme of aging. All kinds of medicines cannot slow down the aging of his body.

If he wants to survive, there is only one way, and that is to reach the fourth level.

So he has been studying the [God of War Armor Body] in front of him, trying to understand the rules of the fourth level.

From the first level to the third level, there are not many secrets at all. If you know the way to advance and meet the conditions, you can advance.

But the fourth level is different.

Level 4 requires you to carve out a path that is uniquely yours.

You must learn to use the power of the infinite sages to weave your own way.

It was too mysterious. Lu Wangping looked at the [Armor of the God of War] and understood it for a long time, but he was not able to understand any truth from it.

He thought, maybe it needs to be officially launched?

But [War God Armor Body] does not mean that it can be activated just by activating it.

After all, this is a fourth-level armor body.

His strength is not enough to fully activate this armor, at most he can barely move it.

Even so, he may have to pay the price with his life.

And the most important thing is that he may not be able to control the God of War Armor with his own will.

He had been in contact with its spiritual consciousness several times, and the body was filled with endless fighting spirit.

If he touches that majestic fighting spirit even slightly, he will feel his consciousness being hit hard.

If he cannot control it, once it is activated, the fighting spirit will guide the armor body to find the enemy and fight until its energy is exhausted.

After looking at it for a long time, Lu Wangping closed the door to the forbidden area, restored the ban, and slowly walked out of the forbidden area.

As soon as he left, he saw a young man wearing a black robe.

His name is Zhou Chen, he is his favorite disciple and the current master of Miaoxuan Academy Palace.

"Teacher, have you gone to see the [Armor of the God of War] again?" Zhou Chen asked.

"I don't have much time left. I just want to use this last time to observe more works of my predecessors and see if I can get some inspiration." Lu Wangping said.

"Teacher, have you gained anything?" Zhou Chen asked.

"It's too mysterious and complicated for me to understand." Lu Wangping shook his head.

"I plan to change the key to enter it." Zhou Chen hesitated and then said.

Lu Wangping's expression changed slightly, and then he said: "It's okay, it's okay, after all, it's the academy's heritage, and it should be closely guarded."

After saying that, Lu Wangping turned around and left without looking back.

"Teacher, have a good journey." Zhou Chen said.

Silently, the old figure had moved towards the darkness and gradually disappeared from Zhou Chen's eyes.

Seeing Lu Wangping leave, Zhou Chen stepped into the forbidden area, reset the keys one by one, and set new keys.

Afterwards, Zhou Chen turned around and left.

However, what he didn't see was that at some point on the ground, there were eyes that were only the size of a grain of rice and made of metal and gems.

At this time, the eye was flashing with light, transmitting the acquired information to its user.

——

The second competition that Duji participated in was "Mechanism Beast".

With the help of Lin Qianxing, he made a palm-sized mechanical kitten.

We also successfully achieved high scores of four A and B.

The last one and B are points deducted for practicality.

Compared to the machine beasts made by students from other academies, the practical scope of the machine kitten is not particularly high.

Lin Qianxing was quite dissatisfied with this and said, "That referee must be a dog!"

Du Ji didn't understand the meaning of Lin Qianxing's words, but he had some ideas.

"Could it be that the teacher's true form is a cat?" He secretly guessed.

The third competition is "Architecture".

Lin Qianxing drew the drawings quite confidently and started construction with Du Ji.

Although it was just a small room, the interior design was ingenious and well-carved. Lin Qianxing guessed that he would be able to win the top five.

However, the result was one A and four B.

Several judges commented that although the design is exquisite, it ignores that the key to architecture is habitability.

This house leaves something to be desired in terms of living comfort.

The architecture of Longteng Academy received a perfect score of 5A. While the architecture is exquisite, it is also very suitable for living.

Because of this, after three games, Duji’s accumulated points are still second.

Lin Qianxing was unhappy again.

He said: "What does it mean to be uninhabitable? Those superfluous designs are not necessary at all. They can also protect against cold and heat. Even the temperature changes of a dozen degrees can be ignored by anyone with a little bit of physical fitness."

Lin Qianxing actually realizes that he has ignored the problem of ordinary people living in it.

But he just wasn't satisfied.

This is a world with monks. Can the houses they build still be suitable for ordinary people to live in?

Du Ji smiled bitterly after listening to Lin Qianxing's complaints.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Lu Rang brought new food.

He delivers things every day these days.

In addition to food, there are also various local specialties.

Du Ji felt a little embarrassed.

"Just keep it when he gives it to you. He doesn't feel like he's losing money, so you shouldn't feel like he's losing money. The key to doing business is that you and I are willing to do it." Lin Qianxing said.

Soon, the fourth test has begun.

This time the competition is about "organ weapons".

If it were just a simple weapon, the scope would be very wide.

Strictly speaking, any object that can be used in combat can be considered a weapon.

But if you add the word "organ", it's different.

Exquisite, complex, and must meet the most important condition, it must be highly lethal.

After the previous defeat, Lin Qianxing also became angry.

He directly gave Duji a simplified version of the "thunder tube" drawing.

Du Ji still couldn't understand, so Lin Qianxing drew a blueprint and explained it to him one by one.

"I have figured out the principle of the lecturer's thunder tube. You only need to do this, this, that, and then this and this in the middle to completely reproduce it. There is also my design in it, which can be better. Constrain the "Source Qi Beam" to ensure that the best is better than the blue."

Even though Du Ji had a photographic memory, his brain was a bit out of control after listening to Lin Qianxing's narration.

But fortunately, he has some talent. Once he understands all the details, it is not difficult to make it at least.

For many things, the difficulty lies in the design, not the production.

Creation is the most difficult step.

Ever since, on the day of the competition, Du Ji imagined a scene of a competition between lecturers of Kanghua Academy Tiangong Academy.

He held the handle of the thunder cone tightly with his two palms, and then adjusted the power to the maximum. The next moment, layers of golden light lit up inside the thunder cone, which was like a fire stick.

Boom~!

A golden beam of Origin Qi was blasted out, and the target five hundred meters away instantly melted, leaving a pit in the protective wall behind it.

Compared with the mechanical weapons made by other students, this power is completely different.

"First class!"

"First class!"

"First Class"

There is no doubt that Duji received a fifth-A rating and returned to the first place in the standings.

Next is the "forging" competition proposed by Kanghua Academy.

This is what Dougie does best.

The calluses on his hands and the mountains of forged works once piled up in his backyard were proof of his strength.

The techniques taught by Lin Qianxing have long been integrated into his bones, and many things have become part of himself.

There's no reason why he should lose here.
