Translator: 549690339
Seeing Yang Chen still refining the elixir at a leisurely pace, many people did not think highly of him.
With his ability to only refine Essence Pills at a third -grade high level, the hope of winning was extremely slim. However, no one really cared about it.
After all, Yang Chen, a genius who specializes in martial arts, having some shortcomings in the Way of Alchemy is quite normal. Reaching his current level is already quite impressive. As of now, there hadn’t been a young prodigy who had achieved extraordinary results in both martial arts and alchemy.
Li Xianbin did not feel any sense of superiority when facing Yang Chen. After finishing refining, he simply sat at his original spot calmly, waiting for Yang Chen to complete his alchemy.
Not long after Li Xianbin finished refining, a pill fragrance also emerged from Yang Chen’s pill furnace.
“Yang Chen, Li Xianbin has refined a Rainbow Pill. What kind of elixir have you refined?” The referees asked in confusion.
Yang Chen took out an elixir from his pill furnace; astonishingly, it looked exactly like the Essence Pill he had started with.
Yang Chen spoke gently, “Honorable referees, the elixir I refined is still an
Essence Pill.”
“If that’s the case, then we’ll declare Li Xianbin the winner.” Some of the referees were disappointed. They originally thought Yang Chen had some hidden trump card that he hadn’t used yet, only to find out that Yang Chen’s strategy was completely reliant on a single move.
No matter what, nine Essence Pills winning against one Rainbow Pill was still a bit far-fetched.
Li Xianbin also courteously said, “Brother Yang Chen, it seems that I have won by a slim chance.”
Yang Chen didn’t really dislike Li Xianbin, but it was impossible for him to lose that easily.
He smiled and said, “Referees, please don’t be in a hurry to announce the result.”
“Yang Chen what do you still want to say?” The referees asked, puzzled.
Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh in his heart, for he had more than just something to say.
Otherwise, he would have already lost.
With that in mind, Yang Chen didn’t bother to explain anything and shook all the elixirs from the pill furnace. At a glance, there were a total of eleven Essence Pills, and without exception, their textures were round, emitting a faint light. That was the symbol of a supreme-grade elixir.
The most crucial factor was the quantity!
Eleven pills.
This was a very sensitive number.
Because the maximum limit of Essence Pills that could be produced with one furnace of materials was eleven!
What did this signify?
It signified that Yang Chen had refined the Essence Pills to their utmost limit, achieving perfection.
“What?”
Whether it was the audience on the viewing platform, the referees, or Li Xianbin, they were all dumbfounded.
“Who won?”
“Logically, there isn’t much difference between nine and eleven, so Yang Chen shouldn’t be able to win.”
“Nonsense! You obviously don’t know anything; there is a big difference between nine and eleven! Eleven represents the limit. With one furnace of materials, it’s extremely difficult to refine to the limit. It requires impeccable techniques and skills, and one mistake could lead to imperfections. Although it’s just a difference of two pills, it separates heaven and earth!” Some experienced alchemists in the viewing platform shouted.
“So, Yang Chen actually won?”
Those referees had the most say in this matter.They looked at each other with bitter smiles on their faces.
They originally thought that Yang Chen had only refined nine Essence Pills, but to their surprise, Yang Chen had actually performed fiercely, refining eleven at once!
Eleven Essence Pills was a perfect performance, a display of the flawless and impeccable technique of an alchemist. It could even surpass a Third-grade High -level Rainbow Pill.
Thinking of this, the referees could only announce the result one by one.
“Yang Chen wins ! ”
Yang Chen stood up at this time, cupping his hands toward Li Xianbin: “Brother Li, it was an extraordinary performance by Yang Mou that barely won just now. I hope Brother Li will not be discouraged.”
Li Xianbin had an extraordinary temperament, and he looked at Yang Chen with a faint smile: “Little Brother Yang, don’t be polite. I admit my defeat wholeheartedly. If there’s a chance, I hope you’ll come to my Mountain Torrent Graceful Garden for a visit. We can delve into the secrets of the Way of Alchemy together. I believe both I and my master will be very welcoming.”
“Certainly!” Yang Chen answered graciously.
This Li Xianbin was indeed a suitable friend. However, it was too early to talk about it now.
After winning, Yang Chen didn’t show much surprise; he calmly returned to the viewing platform.
Although his victory caused quite a commotion, the waves quickly subsided.
The first reason was that Yang Chen had always refined Essence Pills, which was not fresh, so it was probably an extraordinary performance that led to this result. If he really encountered a strong opponent, it was only a matter of time before Yang Chen was eliminated. The second reason was that the upcoming battle was extraordinarily exciting.
“Fan Shijie versus Xiao Yunfeng!”
Fan Shijie was the primary alchemist of the Huangshan Sect.
While Xiao Yunfeng was the alchemy genius personally cultivated by Beishan Main City!
The two geniuses were the only Tier 4 alchemists in this knockout alchemy competition held by Beishan Main City!
Tier 4 was a realm worthy of admiration among alchemists.
The clash between these two naturally attracted the attention of many, so there was much discussion and eyes were glued to the ring where the two had already stepped on.
“Both of these two are the top alchemy geniuses in this knockout competition. I wonder who will come out on top.”
“Xiao Yunfeng is a fourth-tier intermediate alchemy master, while Fan Shijie is only a fourth-tier junior alchemy master; there is a level difference between the two. However, it’s not impossible for Fan Shijie to win, as long as Xiao Yunfeng refines an entry-level fourth-grade elixir.”
“I heard that when Fan Shijie was at Huangshan Sect, he had successfully refined entry-level fourth-grade elixirs, and his success rate was not low. That’s why he was granted the title of fourth-tier junior alchemy master.”
Yang Chen also showed some interest in this battle between Fan Shijie and Xiao Yunfeng. He looked at the ring with slightly raised eyebrows.
Xiao Yunfeng appeared amiable, but there was a tinge of disdain in his eyes as he stared at Fan Shijie. Nevertheless, he still spoke gently, “Brother Fan, please give me some leeway in the upcoming match.”
“Brother Yunfeng, you’re joking. How can my humble tricks impress someone like you with such a discerning eye?” Fan Shijie cupped his hands in return.
The two finally stopped acting polite, sat down, and took out their respective Pill Furnaces.
It was at the moment when they took out their Pill Furnaces that the gap between them became apparent.
Although Fan Shijie’s Pill Furnace was made of good material, it was not considered precious in the end.
However, when Xiao Yunfeng brought his own Pill Furnace out, the dazzling golden light truly shocked everyone present. “The Purple Yin Pill Furnace!”
“Indeed, it is the Purple Yin Pill Furnace!”
