The reason why Qing Mu dared to try to snatch Yang Danlin's position as the hall master of the Medicine Hall was because he had a certain amount of confidence and capital.
"Deputy Hall Master Qing Mu is really amazing. I'm afraid he's going to win this round."
"What do you mean by 'afraid'? He's definitely going to win. No matter how excellent Ling Xiao is, he can only refine excellent elixirs at most. Can he refine perfect elixirs?"
"Yeah, he's only been learning alchemy for less than half a month, right?"
"That's right. So I suspect that Old Hall Master Yang is tired of being the hall master of the Medicine Hall, so he deliberately gave the position to Deputy Hall Master Qing Mu."
"Hey, it seems that it's really possible."
After Qing Mu's elixirs came out, there were all kinds of opinions. However, everyone had the same thought, that Old Hall Master Yang would definitely lose this bet.
"He still wants to refine excellent elixirs? I think he's just going to refine a furnace of defective elixirs!"
Hei Suo sneered. He had already stood up and was ready to leave. The reason why he didn't leave was purely because he wanted to see Ling Xiao's embarrassed look.
The more unlucky Ling Xiao was, the happier he was.
No matter how the surrounding environment changed, Ling Xiao was still immersed in his alchemy.
From the moment he started to refine elixirs until now, it had only taken him a little more than a quarter of an hour, which was much shorter than Qing Mu's.
It was a pity that he had wasted too much time before, so he finished later than Qing Mu.
However, it was almost time now.
Ling Xiao calculated the time and then slowly withdrew the True Essence that was being transferred.
The flame in the alchemy furnace gradually extinguished, leaving only a trace of residual heat to remind people that the elixirs had just been refined here.
"Look, Ling Xiao's elixirs are also out!"
It was not known who shouted, but it attracted the attention of many people towards Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao took a deep breath, slowly reached out his hand, and opened the lid of the alchemy furnace.
In that instant, as many as twenty rays of golden light shot out.
Not only that, but this golden light was even more dazzling than Qing Mu's pill.
The final time to open the furnace was actually very crucial. If it was too early, the Life Pill would not be able to fully mature. If it was too late, it might be burnt or even cause the Life Pill to explode.
The most frightening thing was that the cauldron might even explode, resulting in an irreparable disaster.
This kind of thing had happened before. In fact, similar things had happened several times in Yuehua School. The medicine hall's alchemy room had been destroyed many times.
"Elders, please give your marks."
Ling Xiao stood up respectfully and cupped his hands toward the three elders of the medicine hall.
The three elders had no enmity with him. At most, they felt that he was a little arrogant, but this did not affect their grading.
The three of them arrived in front of Ling Xiao's alchemical furnace. They couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise on their faces. This kind of expression had never appeared on their faces even when they were examining the pills inside the green-wood alchemical furnace.
The onlookers were very nervous.
Because the golden light just now was too dazzling, many people who originally looked down on Ling Xiao began to feel uncertain in their hearts.
"Good heavens, twenty pills, all of them are finished products, and all of them are perfect pills!"
One of the elders said loudly with a very surprised tone.
"It's not just good, these twenty medicinal pills have all reached a perfection level of 100%! Is this really a pill refined by a new apprentice alchemist? "
Another elder was also surprised.
"This is incredible. This old man has been refining pills for so many years, but I have never seen pills with such an outstanding degree of perfection. The effect of these twenty high-grade True Elemental Pills is simply comparable to a qualified top-grade True Elemental Pill. Do you believe that an alchemy apprentice can refine low-grade Yellow Grade pills?"
The third elder was holding a pill in his hand, and his beard was trembling with excitement.
Qing Mu was obviously shocked. His face had turned pale, without the slightest trace of blood. He was obviously frightened.
"No, I don't believe it. How is this possible!"
He hurriedly rushed over and looked at Ling Xiao's twenty perfect high-grade True Elemental Pills. His eyes were filled with confusion and despair.
Hei Suo also fell into a state of stupor.
The disciple next to him who was transporting the alchemy materials was trembling all over. This guy probably already knew what was going to happen to him.
The three elders looked at Ling Xiao with astonishment. Their expressions were filled with doubt and disbelief.
That kind of expression was really complicated.
"Young man, did you really just learn alchemy?"
An elder asked.
"Elder, this disciple's current cultivation is only at the peak of the eighth level of the Martial Vein. Even if I wanted to refine pills, I wouldn't be able to. After joining the Yuehua School, I learned alchemy from Old Hall Master Yang and Senior Sister Lan. Is there anything wrong with that?"
He had nothing to be afraid of. In this world, there were many geniuses. It wasn't strange for someone like him to appear.
"No, no, no, there's nothing wrong with that. We're just asking. We're really surprised. No wonder Yang Danlin dared to bet his position as the hall master of the Medicine Hall. It turns out that he knew what was going on."
After saying that, the elder who had lived for almost two hundred years glared at Yang Danlin, as if he was complaining that Yang Danlin didn't inform them in advance, causing them to lose their composure.
Yang Danlin also smiled bitterly. He knew that Ling Xiao was outstanding, but he didn't expect Ling Xiao to be so outstanding.
"Well, let's announce that Ling Xiao has won the alchemy competition. Vice Hall Master Qing Mu, do you admit defeat?"
"Yes!"
How could he not admit defeat?
The three elders were here. If he dared to say anything, he would be kicked out of the Medicine Hall and even be expelled from the Yuehua School.
"Well, since you admit defeat, it's fine. From now on, you're not allowed to suppress Ling Xiao. If the three of us find out, you won't be able to stay in the Yuehua School anymore."
The three elders were not fools. They could see that Ling Xiao was very talented in alchemy. Although he was not as good as Qing Mu now, it wouldn't be long before he became the best alchemist in the Yuehua School.
There was no problem in abandoning Qing Mu for such a precious treasure.
"Elders, please understand. I didn't use any excuse to suppress Ling Xiao."
Although Qing Mu was the vice hall master, his status and seniority couldn't be compared to the three elders, so his attitude was especially respectful.
"That's enough. We know what you did. We just didn't want to embarrass you. Aren't you going to reflect on yourself?"
One of the elders shouted coldly.
Qing Mu's face instantly turned pale.
He felt that he was too naive. He thought that no one knew what he did. Who would have thought that everyone knew what he did? They just didn't care about it because it was too small.
"I admit my mistake."
Qing Mu lowered his head and said.
"It's not enough to admit your mistake. We have discussed your position as the vice hall master for the time being. If you perform well in the future, you can be promoted again. That's all."
