Episode 645: Are you bluffing again?
As soon as Yongjin spoke, the examination room became as quiet as a mouse. At the end of Yongjin’s gaze was the stern-faced Hwasangsaeng.
Everyone was dumbfounded. How dare you provoke the head of the Hwa family? Are you willing to risk your life?
Even Bang Myeong-won and Shi Go-yang were shocked. However, when the makeup artist’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, the two felt relieved.
The loyalty that Yongjin showed them was the most effective surrender.
Yongjin deliberately cursed the painter to make his attitude clear. This was an act equivalent to throwing himself into a trap, and if he wanted to survive in the future, he would definitely need the protection of the Bang family. This is where Yongjin was smart. He gained the trust of the Bang family in an instant.
“You’re asking for your own death.”
The makeup artist’s eyes were filled with murder. When had he ever been subjected to such humiliation?
“Don’t be noisy in the first match venue.”
The owner of the top house spoke to Yongjin in a cold voice.
“If you make a fuss again, you’ll be kicked out of the stadium.”
“But you deliberately harassed me. It’s not fair.”
Yongjin said.
“If you want to participate in the martial arts, you must follow the rules of the dantop. As long as the people outside don’t insult you, you can do whatever you want. If you can’t even endure this much, how can you become a dansoo? You said Yongsam, right? I’ll let you off this one time because I think you came from an uncivilized place and don’t know the rules. However, if you break the rules again, you will be expelled immediately.”
The top house owner said.
The head of the household and Si-ryeol-hwa were sweating because of Yong-jin, but they calmed down when they saw that the head of the top house did not chase Yong-jin away.
They were surprised by Yongjin’s courage to directly insult Hwasang, but they also admired the loyalty he showed.
Yongjin laughed to himself. It was indeed not much different from what he had expected. The head of the top house was only responsible for supervising the exams, so he didn’t save anyone’s face, and he only taught Yongjin once for his mistakes and didn’t expel him.
Although it was somewhat adventurous, it was worth it as with just one word he gained the complete trust of the Bang and Si families.
‘Huh, you told me not to tell you?’
Yongjin suddenly raised his fist in front of Hwasangsaeng and raised one of his middle fingers.
“ha ha ha…….”
Bang Myeong-won and Shi Go-yang don’t laugh or chatter lightly because of their status as heads of households, but at that moment, they burst into laughter.
The painter was so angry that his hair stood on end. His eyes looked like they were going to spit fire, but he couldn’t say anything. It would have been even more embarrassing if he had said something to Yongjin and gotten scolded by the owner of the top house.
Even in the single-choice competition, the place in charge of judging was independent, so even if it was the Hwa family, they had no authority to say anything, and the top house had to guarantee the fairness of the competition.
Even though he was a makeup artist who had a relationship with Dan-gok and had a strong connection to Dan-gok, he could not treat the owner of the top house carelessly, so he had no choice but to swallow his anger.
However, the laughter of Bang Myeong-won and Shi Go-yang was more difficult to understand than Yong Jin’s insulting behavior.
“He’s a nobody. He’ll only do it for a little while. Let’s just wait and see.”
The makeup artist spoke coldly.
But the two just laughed silently. The painter became even angrier because of the two people’s attitudes.
“The following is the content of the evaluation.”
The man in the top house suddenly waved his large hand. Then, large letters appeared on Yongjin’s table. That was Danbang.
“Blood Soul Melting Elixir.”
Yongjin was a little confused. This elixir was a relatively unpopular elixir, a high-grade soul elixir used by comatose people to stabilize their souls and improve blood circulation, thus stabilizing their lives.
This is a kind of fifth-grade elixir, and its refining difficulty is intermediate. The refining difficulty of the first match was a little different from what the host said, which was beginner level.
Yongjin, who had thought this far, intentionally crumpled his expression and pretended to be embarrassed.
“Hey, that guy named Yongsam, why are you acting like that?
Surely the Blood Soul Alliance wouldn’t be that difficult?”
The cat said with a slightly worried expression.
“According to the abbot’s words, Yongsam grew up deep in the mountains since he was young and has never refined high-quality elixirs or herbal medicines. The abbot gave him many elixirs and medicinal herbs to practice with, but they were all low-quality elixirs. It seems like Yongsam has never refined such elixirs. He also doesn’t seem to know what herbs are inside.”
Bang Myeong-won said with a stern expression.
In order for a single person to refine a single medicine, he must first have a single prescription. Then, he must know the properties of all the herbs and know which one to refine and fuse first.
If the procedure is messed up or done incorrectly, it will be a headache. In addition, since each herb has different properties, the intensity of the fire must also be different. If you refine it without knowing this, it is like a blind man touching an elephant.
“Hmm, this guy, the headmaster, he still has a long way to go as it seems he’s not handling things well.”
Bang Myeong-won sighed.
If he had known that he was short on Yongsam, he could have found a professional in the family to assist him, but it was too late now.
The manager and Si-ryeol-hwa who were at the stadium became anxious when they saw Yong-jin’s expression.
But now, there was nothing they could do about being anxious. This was the first match, not the first time, and they couldn’t say anything. All they could do was wish Yongjin luck.
The top house owner spoke in a cold voice.
“This examination is to refine the Blood Soul Infusion Sect. I will give everyone three doses of medicinal herbs, so refine them within three hours. If the refined Blood Soul Infusion Sect reaches the Three Stages, it will pass, and if it doesn’t, it will fail. Let’s start now!”
As soon as the words of the Tower Master fell, all the participating strongmen quickly began to weaken. Among them, there were those who found it challenging to refine the Blood Soul Rising Squad.
The podium had a high failure rate. On top of that, this was a stadium. There were a lot of people watching from outside, and even seniors were there, so the pressure was high.
However, fortunately, I had refined the elixir once in the beginning, so I was familiar with the place. If not, the chances of failure would have been higher.
Refining the Blood Soul Rising Sect was actually nothing to Yongjin, but he deliberately pretended not to know about the medicinal herbs and tested them.
When the ‘test’ was more or less over, Yongjin started refining the powdered medicine like everyone else, deliberately pretending to be unskilled.
Because he was meticulously directed down to the smallest detail, anyone who saw him would think that Yongjin was a beginner.
“Hahaha, is that guy Yongsam the genius you brought in? Hahaha…….”
Hwasang-saeng sneered at Yongjin’s clumsy appearance.
Yongjin was an outsider who didn’t even know the properties of the main medicinal ingredients used in the Blood Soul Rising Sect, and was even testing them. He didn’t even have the basic qualifications of a single person.
While Yongjin was busy refining the powdered medicine, the other quick-handed people had already started sealing the entrance to the short circuit.
pop!
Suddenly, there was an explosion and one of the soldiers made a pained expression. He had let his guard down and all the elixirs in the tank had turned into ashes.
The man quickly pulled himself together and started making the elixir again.
This kind of mistake shouldn’t have happened, but since I was used to performing in a closed room, I couldn’t concentrate when the environment became noisy.
As the first person failed, two others failed in quick succession. Either the shoes were not worn out, or the spiritual power could not keep up, so they became stuck.
A high-temperature condition is a phenomenon in which, if the heat cannot keep up with the powdered medicine before it becomes a liquid, the liquid solidifies into parts. If this happens, it becomes impossible to continue.
Before becoming an elixir, the essence of all medicinal properties must remain in a liquid state. Then, at the moment when the elixir is about to solidify, the firepower is increased and the soul is output to draw out some of the moisture and solidify the elixir.
Suddenly, an explosion rang out, and a thick incense scent spread throughout the stadium.
“Oh my god, I made it to the podium. It’s a fireworks show!”
People outside the court screamed. Those inside the court were prohibited from making noise, but those outside the court had no such rule. Everyone turned their heads toward the fire department.
Hwamubang slowly opened the stove lid with an arrogant expression. Inside, nine elixirs were shining brightly.
“One of them is Yuk Hyeon-dan! They say that he is a genius in the art of divination that comes once in a thousand years in the Hwa family. As expected, Hwa-mu-bang is amazing.”
Someone shouted in surprise. The Blood Soul Rising Sect had a high refining difficulty. Moreover, in such a noisy environment, it was truly admirable that they were able to refine the elixir so quickly.
It was thanks to Ji Yong-geum-yeom, who was ranked first in the water painting rankings, that he succeeded in getting on the podium in half an hour, but it was also due to Hwa Moo-bang’s mental strength and skills.
The painter looked at Hwamubang with satisfied eyes. It was worth paying a great price to save Hwamubang.
Hururuk.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared, and a single spark spread from Yongjin’s short circuit. As the flames rose, the people were stunned.
“You fused the Yeonyeoncho (列煙草) and Yeonryonggeun (炎龍根) first? Are you stupid? Do you really know how to fuse?”
Those watching from afar began to mock. These two powders could not be directly fused.
After failing several times, Yongjin stopped practicing and started watching others refine the elixir.
“Okay, do that.”
Bang Myeong-won said with a smile.
Rather than trying to figure it out on my own, it was better to see how others fused. The Blood Soul Rhythm Synthesis Method only gave a rough outline, and was not detailed, so if I didn’t know the medicinal properties of the ingredients, I couldn’t basically refine them.
“Huh, it’s too late. The match will be over in half an hour. There’s no hope for that guy.”
The makeup artist said with a sneer.
Only then did Shigoyang look at the hourglass next to him. When he realized that there really wasn’t much time left, just as the makeup artist had said, his face darkened without him realizing it.
Yongjin, who had been watching the people for a long time, saw that there was not much time left, so he immediately lit a fire and began putting herbs into the stove.
“Damn, are you bluffing again?”
The people outside shouted at Yongjin.
Yongjin poured all the powdered medicine into the stove like before. But this match was different from last time.
Last time I was training, I only had a few powdered elixirs, but now I have to refine six-grade elixirs, so there are now one hundred and seven powdered elixirs.
“Do you really think I can make a second-class elixir? Huh, you’re an idiot.”
“Haha, it’s better to be stupid than to try to cram everything in at once because you’re short on time.”
“Hey, Gwangwon hyung, you usually like to criticize so much, so why are you quiet today?”
The man called Gwangwon Hyung shook his head among the crowd and spoke.
“I don’t want to say anything. I’m worried that my face will hurt again.”
The man had spoken to Yongjin the last time he was on stage, and ended up getting hit hard in the face. Still, the man spoke calmly, as if he was a generous person.
