Chapter 1701 - 1701: The Personal Arrival of a Divine-level Refining Master

The Microscopic Eye?
Is that all?
The four level nine refiners were slightly puzzled.
Tan Yuan laughed and looked at Han Muye in disdain.
“It’s just nine subtle array patterns, plus suspension patterns. Such insignificant trifles have tarnished the reputation of the Microscopic Eye.”
Turning to the Pagoda City refiners who were watching, Tan Yuan’s expression turned cold.
“Your chief refiner applied for a patent with such a trivial thing.
“Do you really think this thing can be patented?”
No.
Everyone’s faces turned red. They didn’t dare to meet the sharp gaze of the sage-level refining master.
This time, their chief was truly embarrassing.
Just this little ring could be easily refined by anyone present.
Tan Yuan turned to look at Han Muye in satisfaction and sneered. “1 know you’re persistent. Let me show you how many similar items like this are in the
Alliance’s patent database.”
As he spoke, golden light flashed in his hand, and rays of spiritual light gathered around him.
Various items similar to the circle in front of Han Muye’s right eye, or with similar spiritual patterns, quickly appeared.
“Look, more than 30 items with similar spiritual patterns, and even overlapping ones. Tsk tsk, this is the first time I’ve seen so many overlapping innovative patents.
“Haha, there are 58 items with similar shapes and forms. How dare you apply for a patent with this?”
Tan Yuan’s words were filled with ridicule.
The Pagoda City refiners around him all blushed.
It was truly embarrassing.
Their chief had only created such a small thing, yet he wanted to certify it as a patent.
Tan Yuan raised his hand and pointed, gathering golden light into a patent application assessment.
‘High similarity and overlapping of spiritual patterns and forms, but no exploration tools with the same type, principle, and function.’ A line of golden characters appeared.
As expected, the similarity and overlap were extremely high.
However, the words below made Tan Yuan frown. Then, another line of text appeared.
‘Can be included in the patent repository.’
Can be included?
Could this thing be included?
The expressions of the four level nine experts froze.
Could this thing really be included?
Tan Yuan paused for a moment, then smiled and said, “The Alliance has always encouraged innovation. Even if these things have no value, they can still be included.’
They can still be included?
Being included in it meant becoming a patented refining master. That meant having high privileges and various Alliance benefits.
In the workshop, the refiners watching were all excited.
Even the four level-nine refining masters witnessing the trial were moved.
“Heh, do you really think being included makes you a patented refiner?” Seeing everyone’s expressions, Tan Yuan sneered, hands behind his back, saying lightly, “There are basic thresholds for patented refiners.
“100 million origin coins.”
Tan Yuan raised a finger and said casually, “Only by earning 100 million origin coins from this patent can you be recognized as a patented refiner.”
100 million origin coins!
Who could come up with such wealth?
Yu Changdao looked at Chen Mao in surprise.
This Senior Chen had a patent badge. Didn’t that mean that his patent had been sold for 100 million origin coins?
He was really rich.
“Of the 100 million origin coins, 5% is taken by the Alliance, and the rest is given to the patented refiner.
“If it’s really that easy to become a patented refiner, then there will be patented refiners all over the world.
“From ancient times to the present, there have been more than 3,856,000 patents recorded in the patent library. More than 8,000 of them were successful applications in the past 100,000 years.”
With only 8,000 successful applications in the past 100,000 years, didn’t that mean that on average, it took over 10 years to produce one patent?
Who knew how many of them could earn 100 million origin coins?
“Don’t think that there are many patents. In fact, most of them are worthless.
“And many of them are the result of dozens or even hundreds of senior refining masters gathering in major cities’ workshops, constantly deducing and creating.”
Tan Yuan looked at Han Muye and said expressionlessly, “l will follow the process and promote your so-called Microscopic Eye within the Alliance.
“Once the patent authorization reaches 100 million, you can become a patented refiner.
“Before you become a patented refiner, Pagoda Citys patent application opportunities will be temporarily revoked.”
He turned to look at Yu Changdao and others, then at the surrounding refiners.
“You can only blame your Chief for wasting the opportunity to apply for a patent.”
His words made everyone bow their heads.
This was planting seeds of dissatisfaction with the chief refiner.
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Tan Yuan snorted and raised his hand. A spiritual light gathered.
“Showcase the characteristics and performance of the things you refine in secret. If anyone is interested, they will report the price for patent use or transfer.’
This was the rule of the patent application test.
Even if Tan Yuan was very dissatisfied with Han Muye, he still had to finish the process.
The spiritual light in Han Muye’s hand turned into a secret language, then collided with the spiritual lights arranged by Tan Yuan.
The spiritual lights turned into millions of strands and scattered.
Watching the spiritual lights fade away, Tan Yuan said coldly, “I’ve done what 1 should. If no one inquires about the price within 15 minutes, the bidding is over for this patent application test.”
There was silence in the workshop.
Baiyue City, a city with level-nine refining masters and armor masters, occupied a hundred miles of land with tens of thousands of people.
“Clang— “Clang—
A bronze bell sounded in the hall of the Alliance of Refining Masters in the
An old man in a black robe stretched out his hand, and a golden stream of light fell into his hand.
“The Microscopic Eye?
“Can it observe the subtle and minutest objects?”
