[32]

A number, bright and clear, floated before all the participants.

Not only the contestants within the accelerated time simulation universe but even the eliminated ones outside couldn't help but gasp, their vision darkening. After the first round of elimination, only more than eighty remained, and in the second round, more than just halved, only thirty-two were left...

The intensity of the confrontation had already exceeded everyone's expectations.

In reality, some contestants were limited by their performance or various factors, unable to eliminate their opponents, ending in one win and one loss or being mutually indifferent.

But alas, everyone had too many vicious tactics.

To eliminate their opponent, too many focused solely on offense and destruction, with the workshop's defensive capabilities not improving significantly, leading to mutual annihilation in one round of full output.

Some even, knowing they might not persist, directly started with Heaven and Earth Same Life, pulling a scapegoat along.

The leaderboard shrank by half, and the points of the remaining contestants instantly doubled.

Moreover, fearing that the competition between contestants wasn't intense enough, with them dancing around each other without fatal blows, the host directly assigned points based on the total points accumulated by each contestant over two rounds.

It was actually a snowball-like increase.

After defeating his opponent in this round, Ji Jue's original 362 points, plus his opponent's 272, reached a total of 634 points.

He still had over a hundred points left from the previous round, making the total usable points reach 700, enough for several vicious moves!

According to the current scoring method, for the later high-level blessing and materials, hoarding points wasn't a wise choice. The host was practically yelling in every contestant's ear: 'Spend quickly, earn more in the next round!'

On the leaderboard, he still ranked first, but the gap between him and second place, Andel, had narrowed to less than 10 points, indicating the opponent had fiercely made up for the points this round.

The top three remained unchanged, first was Tidal Sound Ji Jue, second Bell Tower Andel, and third Dragon Heart Lin Ke.

Unexpectedly, Lou Feng had climbed to eleventh place.

Showing no trace of the previous days when he was miserably beaten by Ji Jue.

It could only be said that after encountering Ji Jue, this dog, multiple times, despite leaving countless psychological scars, Lou Feng's anti-thief techniques had improved significantly, becoming formidable.

Meanwhile, it was evident that the host's intentions were entirely unmasked — during the post-competition review, they directly opened all duel records for the surviving contestants.

Convenient for everyone to gain mutual understanding, then jointly strive for a better tomorrow... not quite.

The more craftsmen understood each other, the more enjoyable their targeted attacks would be.

Now, everyone presumably had only thoughts of driving each other to ruin, transforming opponents into point-producing tools on their ambitious path.

Then, in the fantasy review, another round of gasping commenced.

The saying goes, vicious moves are indestructible, but I have even more ruthless tactics!

After reviewing their own records, everyone promptly opened the livestream of the top contestant, hoping to learn how he lit the lighter.

The offensive and defensive tactics left everyone speechless.

The shamelessness of the offense and the malice of the defense were truly astonishing. Despicable, vile, treacherous, and shameless aside, how could someone be conducting manned spaceflight in a craftsman competition?

And they actually succeeded?

Dude, this craftsman competition is truly meaningless, let's stop competing and perhaps you should consider applying to the Federation Aerospace Bureau, I can recommend you...

Then opening the records of the second-place Andel, everyone was completely numb.

Another with a whole arsenal of ruthless tactics.

Appearing as a young man with rough hands, silent and sullen like an old farmer, unable to utter a word, he quietly embedded his melting furnace and workshop into the earth's vein, then for verifying the vein flow and mutated circulation trends, he detonated tens of thousands of meters deep, nearly blowing half of Luye Island.

When reaching the third place, there was finally someone relatively normal, who merely grabbed a bunch of evil beings to skin and refine them into materials, making everyone somewhat unable to react.

Is this normal?

This is very normal, no, this is true normal!

As for the subsequent corpse bone alchemy, spirit writing transformation, soul melting bloodshed, and other vicious tactics... well, they were a bit sinister, but that's how we operate in embers.

Not only others, but even Ji Jue felt chills down his spine.

Lou Feng had already rolled up his sleeves, presenting the Lou's family heritage, alchemy combined with entropy spirit transformation, utilizing spiritual quality as a bridge, achieving arbitrary conversion between ruins and entropy system, free flow of matter and energy, unrestricted by form.

North Wind Workshop's Valhalla series from Soul Hunter Knight, Berserker, to Surter formed by melting countless souls in bloodshed torment, even the Empire's True Blood who hadn't shown his face yet unveiled the advanced version of Shadow of the Throne, along with the legions of immortals under the throne.

Aside from corpse bone alchemy, which shared ancient alchemy heritage with fluid alchemy, Dragon Heart Lin Ke from the third place finally showcased a unique skill beyond modern alchemy, blending embers, ascension, and ether quintessence, Lin's family heritage: knotted amulets.
