Upon hearing Sima Youyue's age, the lakeside went silent for a few seconds before bursting into laughter.
"Twenty-two years old and you actually want to compete with Senior Brother Li in alchemy? This is the funniest joke I've heard this year! "
"You're an alchemist?" Jade asked.
"Yes," Sima Youyue replied, "Although my level is not very high, I can still compete with him."
Jade looked at her in surprise. Was she so confident because her rank was higher than his? At the very least, it was the same as him!
A twenty-two year old fourth grade alchemist, this talent was really frightening! Even Senior Brother Han became a Fourth Grade Alchemist at the age of 24.
Not to mention that she was also an array master!
"No wonder You Qing and the others said that she's a freak. This kind of talent is indeed freakish!"
"Alright, since you want to compete with me, I'll fulfill your wish. What level of Alchemist are you? "Li Mu also wanted to teach her a lesson personally, so he asked.
"Rank is not important. Since you can concoct Rank Four Medicinal Pills, let's have a Rank Four competition." Sima Youyue said, "But to prevent you from changing your mind after you lose, we need witnesses this time."
After being ridiculed by her again and again, Li Mu was even angrier. "What do you want?"
"Naturally, I'm looking for witnesses." Sima Youyue said, "We can't compete here. We have to go to Longtu town in front of everyone. I'll be more assured if there are more witnesses."
"Alright, if you lose, you'll be at our disposal!" Li Mu said.
"No problem!" Sima Youyue said, "If I fall into your hands, I'm sure you'll have nothing left of me. But I'm more magnanimous. I won't be as ruthless as you. If you lose, remember to call me boss when you see me in the future!"
"Okay!" Li Mu replied.
"Then let's go now, so that you won't be chattering in front of me." Sima Youyue said, "Oh right, Young Master Nalan, didn't you want to test our strength? Let me tell you, I'm not participating, so you can send people to test me. I'll take them all. "
Nalan Jie's hands behind his back clenched into fists.
Li Mu glanced at the Sima family and said, "Let's go."
Thus, a group of people went to Dragon Reflection Town and arrived at the arena. The people from the Alchemist Guild struck a large bell at the side of the arena and the sound of the bell immediately spread throughout the entire town.
When the people in the town heard the bell, they all rushed to the arena as if they had been injected with chicken blood. They wanted to see who was going to fight.
Sima Youyue stood below the arena. Looking at the sturdy arena and the array at the side of the arena, she exclaimed, "I didn't expect there to be an arena here."
"The people who come to Dragon Reflection Mountain are all hot-blooded men, and there are often conflicts. In order to protect the town, they built this arena." Jade explained.
"So it's like that." Sima Youyue rubbed her chin, "Looks like the person who built this town's array is not bad."
"It should be, but this is something that happened a long time ago. We don't know who it is." Jade said.
Very quickly, the people in the town all ran over. Seeing Li Mu on stage, they all guessed, "Is there someone who wants to compete with the people from the Alchemist Guild?"
"Who has such big guts?"
"Is this real or fake?"
"Competing with the people from the Alchemist Guild, could it be that they want to compete in alchemy?"
"Will we be able to see alchemy with our own eyes today?"
"Competing with the people from the Alchemist Guild, isn't this just looking for trouble?"
"Who knows! I know this person, Li Mu. He's one of the best in the younger generation of the Alchemist Guild. He's only twenty something years old and is already a fourth ranked alchemist! "
"Such a young fourth ranked alchemist?"
"That's right, that's why I don't know which blind person actually dares to compete with him."
Seeing that most of the people had arrived, Li Mu looked at Sima Youyue below the stage and asked, "When do you plan to come up?"
Sima Youyue flicked the non-existent dust off her clothes and slowly walked onto the stage.
"This little brat, he looks even younger than Li Mu!"
"He actually wants to compete with Li Mu in alchemy? This is crazy! "
"Why don't we set up a bet? Let's bet on who will win? "
"Forget it, this will definitely be one sided, what's the point!"
These people were not willing to do it, but from the side of the stage came shouts.
"Come, come, let's guess the outcome! Bet on Li Mu winning, the odds are one to five; bet on Youyue, the odds are one to ten, hurry up and place your bets! "
Everyone looked over and discovered that there was a table placed there. On top of it was a piece of cloth with Li Mu and Sima Youyue's names written on it.
"Who are you, you actually dare to be the banker here? If you lose, will you be able to compensate us? "
Sima You Yang opened his fan and said with what he thought was a charming smile, "You can rest assured about this, my Sima family has never reneged on anyone's debt!"
"Sima family?"
"I know this person, he is the direct descendant of the Sima family, the grandson of the current head of the family."
With someone shouting like this, everyone believed Sima You Yang's identity.
With someone as the banker, everyone naturally wanted to participate in the bet, so they all rushed over.
"Come come come, the competition is about to start! Those who want to participate, hurry up and place your bets! Place your bets and leave! "Sima You Yang shouted.
"You're all betting on Li Mu, is there no one betting on my family's Youyue?" Sima You Yang saw that the bets were one-sided and frowned, "My family's Youyue's odds are one to ten!"
"I'll do it, I'll bet on Sima Youyue!" A middle aged man walked over, just as he was about to place the gold coins on the table, he asked, "Is he from your Sima family? How old is he? "
Sima You Yang beamed and said, "That's right, Youyue is my younger brother, he will be twenty two in a few months."
The middle aged man retracted his hand when it was a centimetre away from the table, then said unnaturally, "I'll bet on Li Mu to win."
"Haha-" Everyone around them laughed loudly.
Sima You Yang's smile froze for a moment, then continued to fan himself, saying, "My family's Youyue is actually very powerful, he will definitely win against Li Mu. Are you guys really not going to bet? "
"Young Master Sima, you said that he's only twenty two years old, it's already not bad for most people to become a third ranked alchemist at twenty two years old, this Li Mu is a fourth ranked alchemist. Who would dare to bet on him to win! "Someone laughed.
"Don't regret it if you don't bet now!" Sima You Yang said.
"Brother, I'll buy one." A ten year old child squeezed in and placed a few gold coins on the table.
"Niu Wa, why aren't you guarding your shop at home, what are you doing here!"
Niu Wa took the betting slip and smiled at the person who spoke, saying, "Everyone in town is here, there's no business, my father even closed the shop, there's no need for me to guard."
"Little friend, you have good taste!" Sima You Yang praised.
Niu Wa glanced at the slip of paper in his hand and said doubtfully, "Eh, why did I bet on someone else? I want to bet on Great Master Li! "
Everyone looked at the table, as expected, those few gold coins were placed next to Li Mu's gold coins, but because there were too many people who bet on Li Mu, when he placed it next to Sima Youyue's gold coins.
Sima You Yang's smile froze this time.
