Chu Yunfan suddenly understood. It was almost the same as what he had speculated. In this region, apart from the Great Wei State and the Golden Tribe Khaganate, there was also the Great Qi State to the east of the Great Wei State. Basically, it was a tripartite confrontation.
Relatively speaking, the Golden Horde was the most powerful in terms of military force, followed by the Da Qi Kingdom. The Wei Kingdom was at the bottom in all aspects.
This was because the Great Wei State had been established for the shortest period of time. So, it couldn't be compared with the other two states in many aspects.
However, the Great Wei State was already very big. Therefore, many people didn't know that there were other countries besides the Great Wei State. And, the Great Wei State was the entire world for them.
Although there were no large-scale wars between the three countries in recent years, open and veiled struggles were unavoidable.
Although the various countries' Alchemist Associations were subordinate organizations to the headquarters, their members were all locals of their respective countries. Thus, it was inevitable that they would be hostile towards each other.
Even under the strict prohibition of the headquarters, they had to maintain harmony on the surface. However, there was no lack of scheming and plotting in the dark.
And this Small Elixir Meeting's open and veiled strife was also a microcosm of the open and veiled strife between the three great nations.
The Great Wei State's Alchemist Guild was ranked last among the three big countries. Gongsun Wulong had started to get anxious. This would have a huge impact on his promotion to the headquarters.
Therefore, he came to look for Chu Yunfan, a high-level Alchemist who was suspected to possess the strength of an Alchemy Grandmaster.
"Is the strength of the Great Wei State that bad?" Chu Yunfan asked in confusion. In fact, the power of the Alchemy Masters Society of the Great Wei State far surpassed that of the entire Alchemy Masters Society of the Human Alliance.
The Alchemist Society of the Human Alliance, which had only been around for a few hundred years, couldn't compare to the Great Wei Kingdom in this regard. In fact, it couldn't even be considered to be a fraction of the Great Wei Kingdom's.
However, the Great Wei State, which possessed such formidable alchemy capabilities, was ranked last year after year.
"I won't hide this from Grandmaster Chu. In fact, our Great Wei State has always been at the bottom in the competition between the three big countries over the years. And, it's not only our Alchemist Association. In fact, the overall national strength of the Great Wei State is the weakest among the three big countries!" Gongsun Wulong told a cruel truth. The Great Wei State, which was the weakest among the three big countries, had no other choice. Especially against the Golden Khaganate, it could only defend itself.
"At the Small Alchemy Meeting, the number of great alchemy masters will determine the outcome of the competition. However, the number of great alchemy masters in our Great Wei State can be counted on one hand. However, the number of great alchemy masters in the Great Qi State and the Golden Tribe Khaganate far exceeds this number," Gongsun Wulong said. "Moreover, we have to stay in the Great Wei State, so we can't go together. Therefore, we can only send two or three people each time. Therefore, we can only be at the bottom of the list. However, we hope that we can go together with Master Chu this time. The scene will be much better than before."
Chu Yunfan had heard that Gongsun Wulong's biggest hope was to make the situation look better. He didn't think that they could win. After all, the Great Wei State was far inferior to the Great Wei State in terms of their heritage, strength, and number of alchemists.
It would already be pretty good if it didn't look that bad. As for winning, that was undoubtedly a fantasy. Alchemy required experience from countless failures. A seemingly unremarkable discovery could be the result of countless repeated experiments.
There was not the slightest bit of trickery!
Chu Yunfan thought for a moment. Then, he said, "Well, I will participate in this Small Elixir Meeting. But, I don't know when and where it will be held!"
Gongsun Wulong was overjoyed as he heard this. He said, "That's great! Our strength will increase greatly with Grandmaster Chu's participation. The Small Elixir Meeting will be held in a month's time. It will be held in a basin in the northern region. I will give the coordinates to Grandmaster Chu!"
In his opinion, with the addition of Chu Yunfan, their strength would increase greatly. Even Kong Buyi, who was beside him, had an excited expression on his face.
Chu Yunfan nodded. He had calculated for a moment. In any case, he had to go to the outer region to look for Tang Siyu. So, it was impossible for him to stay in the Great Wei State for a long time.
In any case, the Cloud Desolate had accepted the title of Imperial Preceptor. It had also officially expressed the Suppressing Demon Sect's position. With the endorsement of the Cloud Desolate and the Suppressing Demon Sect, all the major powers in the world would have to be careful. Even if he wasn't there to oversee things, it wouldn't affect the general situation of the world.
He could leave with peace of mind like this!
And, this Small Elixir Meeting was a good opportunity for him!
As for making the situation not too ugly … he had never thought about such a boring thing. Since he was going, he would have to win the championship!
At the same time, he could also take a look at the strength of the alchemy system in the Spiritual World. He wanted to know to what extent it had developed.
However, he didn't say these words to Kong Buyi and Gongsun Wulong. These things had undoubtedly exceeded the limits of their imagination.
"Grandmaster Chu, do you plan to go with us? Or do you want to go by yourself after a period of time? "Gongsun Wulong asked again.
"I can go by myself. When I have the time and the address, I will naturally rush over!" Chu Yunfan replied. In any case, there was plenty of time in a month. So, he wasn't in a hurry.
"That's good. Then, let's prepare to be on our way!"
Gongsun Wulong said.
Then, Gongsun Wulong and Kong Buyi directly left.
Meanwhile, Chu Yunfan also began to arrange things in the Great Wei State. He first went to the Imperial Palace, and told Emperor Wei Wuya that he was going to leave.
Wei Wuya's expression was very complicated. He was reluctant to see Chu Yunfan leave. But, he also heaved a sigh of relief.
He didn't want Chu Yunfan to leave in the current situation. On the other hand, Chu Yunfan didn't want to go any further. This made him heave a sigh of relief. In fact, this was the best situation that he had anticipated. He could relax a lot if Chu Yunfan didn't fight for power.
"Grandmaster Chu, do you really have to leave? I still need Grandmaster Chu's help! "Wei Wuya took a deep breath and said.
However, Chu Yunfan looked at Wei Wuya and said, "Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about other people's rebellion with the help of Sovereign Yun. It doesn't matter whether I'm here or not!"
Wei Wuya saw that Chu Yunfan had seen through his purpose. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. But, he regained his composure and said, "In that case, I won't force you to stay. I will announce to the public that the State Preceptor is in closed-door training!"
"Ah, that's fine!" Chu Yunfan smiled and said.
