e difference between the Dark World and the Underworld""Of course, they are different. They are two completely different concepts," Phili said. "The underground world generally consists of ordinary pe...Under the immense pressure emanating from the greatsword, the guards of the Lu family involuntarily halted their steps.

And Ye Bufan raised his hand and pointed, the sword instantly flew into the test area.

Then another burst of light flashed, and four large characters flew into the air: Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact.

"My goodness, they actually refined a top-grade spirit artifact..."

"Amazing, truly amazing! To have crafted a top-grade spirit artifact in such a short time…"

"This is a top-grade magical artifact, only a ninth-order alchemist can refine it. He's only in his twenties, his future is limitless..."

People looked at the four large characters in the sky, constantly letting out exclamations of amazement.

Rudein furrowed his brows slightly. To refine a top-grade magic artifact at such a rapid speed was beyond his expectations.

But the more he did this, the less likely it was that the other party would be able to stay. Otherwise, in the future, they would inevitably become a major threat to the Lu family. He waved his hand again at those guards.

"Seize him immediately! Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"

"Hold on!"

Ye Bufan raised his hand to stop the guards who were about to rush forward, "Elder, could you answer me a few questions before that"

"Of course, even though the Lu family is powerful, they will still give you a chance to speak."

At this moment, Wen Ding stepped forward and said, “Elder Lu, even if you want to convict someone, shouldn't you at least let them speak for themselves”

Rudeen's expression changed, and he snorted coldly: "Go ahead, the facts are right here. I don't believe you can come up with any more excuses."

Ye Bufan smiled and asked, "Elder, is this sword a top-grade spirit artifact"

"You're right!"

Rudolf nodded, the facts were right there in front of him. The testing area had given the results, and he couldn't argue with that.

"Then would I be considered the first place in this round of competition"

"I suppose so."

Rudy nodded again, the top-grade magic weapon refined by others was fine, and it was the first to be completed. It was the first place anyway, there was no way to deny it.

Ye Bufan's expression changed suddenly, and he pointed at the fallen disciples of the Lu family, "Since you are truly the number one, then Elder please give me a reason why I should poison those trash"

"I…"

Rude was speechless after being refuted. He had just said that Ye Bufan poisoned other disciples to achieve good results.

But now, they can easily get first place. This reason simply doesn't hold up.

What angered him even more was that the disciples of the Lu family were being called trash, and they couldn't refute it.

"Yeah, that's right. They have fire and such deep forging skills. To poison them further That's just insane!"

"You're right, their strength is right there for everyone to see. Compared to them, those people from the Lu family are just trash. Who would poison trash That's just asking for trouble, isn't it"

"That's right, I think this is someone jealous of their achievements and wants to play a trick on them..."

All those around sided overwhelmingly with Ye Bufan, the reason being simple: his strength was so evident that there was no need for him to poison anyone.

Wen Ding said: “I think so too, this matter is too strange.”

"I think someone wants to frame Ye Xiaog, we should investigate this thoroughly and find out where the poison came from."

"That..."

Lu De-ren's face turned ashen. He had been crying wolf all along, framing the family with this poison that they themselves had concocted. Once any clue was found, the Lu family would be utterly disgraced.

Just then, another voice rang out, "This matter is just a misunderstanding. Those people weren't poisoned at all, they were simply lacking true energy and their strength was insufficient. Just carry them away."

The most urgent thing is still the competition, don't affect the progress of the tournament, everyone continue.

The one speaking was Lu Jia's head, Lu Chaoyang. At this moment, he had calmed down. This matter absolutely could not be investigated, otherwise, it would be detrimental to the Lu family in any way.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, the master is right. Right now, we should focus on the competition."

Rude Ren hastily retreated, his plan falling apart. He had originally thought that this young man came from the Tiānluó State and would be easy to manipulate, but he hadn't expected such a difficult opponent.

After he spoke, he waved his hand and all of Lu's guards withdrew, and everything returned to normal.

Ma Kai stood behind, but shook his head in disappointment. Just now, he wished the people from the Lu family would swarm up and tear Ye Bufan into pieces, but it seemed that he was destined to be disappointed.

But he didn't give up entirely. He figured his father should be on his way, and wouldn't be long before he arrived.

Looking at the current situation, the Lu family definitely won't stand up to speak for Ye Bufan. Then it will be my chance to seek revenge.

After the break, the match resumed and time was quickly running out as two hours were almost up.

At this moment, Lu Chaoyang had finished his own weapon forging. His sword entered the testing area and the result was also an exceptional spirit artifact.

Besides him, Lu Deyi and Lu Youjian also refined top-grade spiritual artifacts.

Several dozen more Lu family members also passed the test, though their rankings were somewhat lower, ranging from common grade to superior grade.

Other participants also made the cut, but only a pitiful two or three, and at an embarrassingly low level.

Until the end of the competition, only twenty-two people qualified, three of whom came from other continents. The remaining eighteen were disciples of the Lu family.

The match entered a short break. Ye Bufan returned to his position, while Lu Zhaozong and the seventeen members of his family gathered in a room together.

At this moment, his expression was terrifyingly grim. He had poured in so many resources and spent so many spirit stones. After all the effort to hold this alchemizing competition, he hadn't achieved a single goal.

On one side, Lu Zhaozong was nowhere to be seen. On the other, the reputation of the Kunlun Artifact God was under immense threat.

"Listen to me, this is our final battle. No matter what, the Lu family cannot lose, or we will be the laughingstock of the world."

According to the previously announced competition rules, after the first three rounds, the final round will be a competition of the refining artifacts.

Let's see who is stronger, the ultimate victor will be decided.

Lu Chaoyang gritted his teeth and said, "The spiritual energy competition later has no rules. All of you, remember that."

"Just focus on Ye Bufan's sword. Attack it and destroy it completely, no matter what. Do you understand"

"Yes, Master!"

Those who could participate were all Lu Chaoyang's confidantes, naturally obeying his words.

It would have been even more powerful if it hadn't been poisoned by over a dozen people before.

Rudeyi said: "Master, rest assured, the three of us have three top-grade spiritual artifacts, plus four high-grade spiritual artifacts, six mid-grade spiritual artifacts, and eight low-grade spiritual artifacts. "

With such powerful forces attacking together, even if that Ye kid's refined spirit sword is powerful, it won't be able to withstand it. We're sure to win this competition.

Lu Youjian followed up, saying: “That’s right, even if his sword is powerful, it’s just one blade and will definitely not be our match!”

Lu Chaoyang nodded. "You're right, after we win this time, I'll definitely have a reward."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and everyone left the room together to prepare for the fourth round of the competition."I estimate that as long as they are not killed, they will probably pretend they can't see."Uh..."Ye Bufan was speechless. He wished he hadn't helped those two break through in the first place.He deje...
