"What's the condition?" Lin Yi asked indifferently.
"It's very simple. Didn't you say that you could refine a hundred pills in two hours? Then let's have a competition. We'll set a time limit of two hours. I'll refine one and you'll refine a hundred. Whoever can't do it will never be able to meet Junior Sister Yudie again. How about it? Do you dare to compete? " Ren Zhongyuan sneered. He didn't believe that Lin Yi could refine a hundred pills in two hours even if he was beaten to death. He could use this matter to force this kid to slap his own face!
"Hehe, your method of comparison is really weird. I'm glad you could say it." Lin Yi smiled faintly and nodded immediately. "Fine, I've been kind since I was young. Then I'll satisfy your pretentious act for once. I'm just afraid that you won't admit it when the time comes."
"Humph, once a word is said, it can't be taken back!" Ren Zhongyuan threw the pill formula to Lin Yi without another word, for fear that Lin Yi would go back on his word. No matter how he looked at it, the result was destined. Still not admitting it? Only a fool would not admit it!
The others looked at each other, but Huo Yudie and Ning Xuefei didn't look worried for Lin Yi at all. They had seen Lin Yi refine pills with their own eyes. Regarding this matter, they were more confident than Lin Yi himself.
"Alright, everyone help prepare the materials and let Lin Yi and Ren Zhongyuan refine pills separately!" Under Liu Ziyu's command, the group of East Continent disciples immediately volunteered to help the two of them. This matter concerned their lives. At this time, everyone wanted to be diligent and perform well. Otherwise, what if there were not enough antidote pills in the end and they fell behind?
After returning to his room and asking someone to send the materials over, Lin Yi closed the door and officially began refining pills. Although it was his first time refining this kind of antidote pill, this mere fifth-grade pill was really not difficult for the current Lin Yi.
Moreover, the Godly Pesticide Cauldron had just been upgraded by Han Jingjing. Refining Grade Five pills was a piece of cake for her, especially now that she could refine a large number of pills. In the past, she could only put in 10 sets of ingredients at a time. Now, she could put in 30 sets at a time.
Everyone waited nervously. In less than two hours, there was no movement from Ren Zhongyuan's side, but Lin Yi had already pushed open the door and left.
"How is it?" Liu Ziyu hurriedly went up to greet him personally. When she thought of the wager between Lin Yi and Ren Zhongyuan earlier, she felt a little nervous. Earlier, she really shouldn't have had so many reservations and should have directly stepped forward to reject this wager. After all, if Lin Yi didn't manage to refine 100 pills, what would happen if he really couldn't meet her disciple in the future?
Lin Yi smiled, took out a rather large box, and handed it to her. He said with a smile, "Fortunately, I didn't disappoint you. 120 pills should be enough to cure everyone's poison. You can take this and distribute it to everyone."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned for a moment. Then, they suddenly burst into an uproar. All of them were overjoyed, and the gazes they used to look at Lin Yi were as if they were looking at a monster. In less than two hours, he had produced 120 fifth-grade pills. Was this guy really human?!
Without caring about anything else, everyone immediately snatched a detoxification pill and consumed it. After the medicinal effects were digested, they discovered that the faintly discernible poisonous Qi in their bodies had indeed completely dissipated. This time, even their last bit of apprehension was instantly dispelled. All of them gathered around to express their gratitude to Lin Yi. Putting everything else aside, he had, after all, saved their lives!
Previously, they cooperated with Ren Zhongyuan to squeeze Lin Yi. That was because they felt that Ren Zhongyuan was their backer, and Lin Yi was indeed suspected of poisoning them. But now, it seemed that Lin Yi's backer was more than ten thousand times thicker than Ren Zhongyuan's. Who cared about who poisoned them?!
This guy was at least a fifth-grade alchemist. With such a strong backer, if they didn't seize the opportunity to curry favor with him, they would definitely be fools.
In the face of these East Continent disciples who were like grass on the fence, Lin Yi, Huo Yudie, and Ning Xuefei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Although the East Continent Academy was a gathering place for geniuses, no matter where it was, there would be no lack of such fence-sitters. If you were strong, they would be friends. If you were weak, they would be enemies. Only the weak would understand the hardships of survival.
But this was also good. At least it was better than everyone supporting Ren Zhongyuan. Then, if Ren Zhongyuan wanted to fan the flames and let them target Lin Yi, it would not be as easy as just now.
Of course, not everyone was a fence-sitter. The faces of people like Yi Xiaotian and Yao Jiali were really wonderful. After taking the antidote refined by Lin Yi, they felt like they had eaten a fly. They felt sullen in their hearts, but they had to pinch their noses and swallow it …
After everyone had successfully detoxified the poison, after a while, Ren Zhongyuan pushed the door and walked out with bloodshot eyes. In the crowd, he saw Lin Yi at a glance, and his heart suddenly thumped. But when he saw that Lin Yi's hands were empty, he immediately raised his tail.
"Haha, I said that you were pretending to be mysterious. One hundred pills in two hours? Hmph, now you don't even have one. If I were you, I would have jumped into the sea and committed suicide. How would you still have the face to stand here? There is really no one who is as thick-skinned as you! "Ren Zhongyuan seized the opportunity to ridicule.
"Oh, then how about you? How many have you refined?" Lin Yi asked faintly.
"Not more, not less, just one! I am a man of my word. Even if there is only one, it is much better than a liar like you who says one hundred but can't take out one in the end! " Ren Zhongyuan laughed proudly, raised the antidote pill high, and said to the crowd, "Whoever wants this antidote pill, first come, first served. The next one will have to wait for another hour!"
Ren Zhongyuan thought that the moment he called out, everyone would rush over like a flock of ducks. Perhaps even Huo Yudie would recognize his true colors and jump into his embrace. But in the end, it wasn't just Huo Yudie that he had been thinking about all this time. Even the others weren't moved at all.
At this moment, Ren Zhongyuan suddenly felt that something was wrong. Why was everyone looking at him with strange eyes? There was not the slightest excitement of seeing a life-saving straw. Instead, they felt like they were looking at an idiot.
In particular, even the expressions of Yi Xiaotian and the others were abnormal. It was as if they were desperately trying to remind him of something, but he couldn't understand the specific meaning for a while. Ren Zhongyuan couldn't help but be a little confused. What kind of situation was this?!
"Junior Sister Yudie, I will make the decision to give this one to you first. I think you should understand my intention, right?" Although Ren Zhongyuan muttered in his heart, he still put on a look of infatuation and passed through the crowd. He wanted to personally give the antidote pill to Huo Yudie and take the opportunity to get intimate with her.
