Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend-Chapter 892 - 761: Battle for First Place

The true culprit was caught, but there was little joy on the faces of everyone present.

The deceased had passed, yet the ghostly voice of Hong Mingyue lingered in everyone’s ears.

Thinking of such a beautiful woman with such a cruel heart, everyone felt as if they had swallowed a cockroach, very uncomfortable indeed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this explosion incident was due to my negligence, and Sifang City will compensate each participant and their families. Despite this, the World’s First Refining Competition must continue. I ask each of you who successfully refined an artifact to submit your spiritual artifact."

The Sifang City Lord sighed.

The World’s First Refining was originally to select the most outstanding artifact refiners, but this time, many talented refiners died.

Fortunately, nearly half of the people survived, but only about a quarter truly completed their artifact refining, including Long Baobao and others who finished refining before the explosion.

As for Ye Lingyue and others, due to the explosion of the Artifact Refining Cauldron, they ultimately did not complete the refining, which is undoubtedly a huge loss.

"Sister Yue, it’s really unfortunate this time."

Long Baobao, Little Wuya, and others searched among the cauldron pieces for a long time but couldn’t find Ye Lingyue’s nearly completed Nine Dragon Chant.

Although Ye Lingyue’s Nine Dragon Chant wasn’t finished refining, Long Baobao could feel it was undoubtedly a heavenly-grade spiritual artifact.

"It’s alright, you win some, you lose some. As long as we are all safe, that’s enough. Feng Xun is severely injured, so I’ll take him back to the inn to rest, Little Steamed Bun, I await your good news." Ye Lingyue, worried about Feng Xun’s injury, left first, leaving Long Baobao, Little Wuya, and others to continue waiting for the final results of the World’s First Refining.

As Ye Lingyue supported Feng Xun away, Zitang Su’s eyes flashed, thoughtfully watching Feng Xun’s departing figure.

In the end, only eleven spiritual artifacts were presented before the Sifang City Lord and others.

As for Lie Xuyang’s Sun Shadow Hook, because it was an evil weapon, it was not included.

Three judges and the Sifang City Lord examined each spiritual artifact.

"Among the eleven spiritual artifacts, undoubtedly these two heavenly-grade artifacts are the most outstanding, and in terms of quality, Hei Xiaoling’s is slightly better." The Sifang City Lord praised.

"Indeed, the Luoshu Mountain and River Fan’s refining technique is superb, and what’s most commendable is the fan body is free of any impurities." Monk Nan Jiu also complimented.

"City Lord, although I’m not knowledgeable about artifact refining, I’ve heard that the quality of spiritual artifacts doesn’t always directly relate to their grade. Fan-type spiritual artifacts have always been considered rather weak among attack artifacts. However, this Turtle Pattern Netherworld Robe with its superior defense and invisibility capabilities is more appealing to me." Yue Mei pouted.

Long Baobao and Ye Lingyue were on the same side, and during the explosion earlier, Yue Mei wished Ye Lingyue had been blown up.

Who knew evil people could live long, and although Ye Lingyue didn’t die, the artifact she was refining was destroyed, so she had nothing to do with the World’s First Refining.

Despite this, Yue Mei still didn’t plan to spare Long Baobao, as Ye Lingyue’s friend was her enemy.

"Miss Yue does have a point. Once a spiritual artifact reaches heaven-rank, it develops some hidden features. The Long Family Head’s Turtle Pattern Netherworld Robe, being dual-purpose, is truly extraordinary." Housekeeper Qin spoke up.

He had received many benefits from Long Sixuan, so naturally, he spoke on his behalf.

"Qin Lv, there’s no place for you to butt in here." The Sifang City Lord scolded, casting a glance at Housekeeper Qin.

Housekeeper Qin was indeed one of his long-serving aides, typically cautious, but today he was remarkably talkative.

However, after what Housekeeper Qin said, the Sifang City Lord also realized he shouldn’t merely judge the spiritual artifacts by their grade.

The Turtle Pattern Netherworld Robe from Long Sixuan, to put it plainly, wasn’t devised by Long Sixuan himself.

It was the Evil Cauldron Spirit that helped Long Sixuan with its experience, resulting in this artifact, which was undoubtedly unique on the mainland.

Among the three judges, Yue Mei praised Long Sixuan’s Netherworld Robe, Monk Nan Jiu favored the Luoshu Mountain and River Fan, and the Sifang City Lord himself found both spiritual artifacts impressive.

"Lord Zitang, what is your opinion?"

The Sifang City Lord hesitated, ultimately handing the decision to Zitang Su.

Among the Three Sects, Lonely Moon Sea ranked highest, and with Zitang Su being the eldest among everyone present, anything decided by him would likely be accepted by Yue Mei and Monk Nan Jiu.

"Test."

Zitang Su didn’t immediately give an answer but succinctly said the word "test."

"I must be muddled; Lord Zitang is right. Whether a spiritual artifact is good or not depends on its use. These two artifacts were just refined, so their effectiveness is unknown. Therefore, would the two please demonstrate their artifacts? This way, we can decide which is the best spiritual artifact in the World’s First Refining Competition based on their power and utility."

The Sifang City Lord’s proposal left Long Baobao and Long Sixuan with no objections.

"As you command." Despite his young age, Long Baobao was very polite.

He respectfully bowed to the four, then picked up the Luoshu Mountain and River Fan.

With his small face tense, he waved his hand, and the Luoshu Mountain and River Fan clattered loudly.

A fierce wind rose from the ground, roaring forth.

On the Forging Field, everyone felt as if their bodies were swaying, hard to maintain their footing, and some servants with lower cultivation levels cried out, swept into the sky.

The Sifang City Lord soared like an eagle, catching several servants and rescuing them.

Long Baobao saw this, raised his fan again, and the ground rumbled, the hundred-pound blue stones paving the Forging Field flew upward.

The hundred-pound blue stones, combined with the earth-shaking gale, if unleashed simultaneously, would certainly challenge even Reincarnation Realm experts.

Moreover, this fan was wielded by a child like Long Baobao; if used by a more powerful Fang Venerate level expert, the power would likely double, truly achieving one person matching a thousand troops.

Such accomplishments at a young age bode well for endless potential; the Sifang City Lord’s heart had already visibly leaned towards Long Baobao.

"I apologize for my clumsiness." Long Baobao put away his fan; given his age, overusing the spiritual artifact took a toll on his spiritual power.

"Good child, excellent, excellent." The Sifang City Lord beamed with joy.

Having witnessed the function of the Luoshu Mountain and River Fan, even Yue Mei couldn’t find the slightest flaw. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"I too offer my humble display." Long Sixuan’s spiritual artifact was the Netherworld Robe, which naturally needed to be worn to be effective. Once he finished changing and emerged, seeing Long Baobao had already claimed the spotlight, he was understandably unwilling to concede.
