Other than Lin Xuan, all the pills concocted by the disciples of the Pill Emperor Hall had already been lost to the Medicine Emperor Hall.
Hence, Lin Xuan became the last hope of the crowd.
"Hmph!"
Duan Fei's face was cold as he held onto his cauldron, his eyes filled with disdain.
As a third-grade alchemist, he didn't place Lin Xuan in his eyes at all.
"How can a pill concocted with his bare hands be better than one concocted with a top-grade cauldron?" Song Qianqian sneered.
The majority of the crowd didn't have high hopes for Lin Xuan. Firstly, it was because Lin Xuan was only a second-grade alchemist. It was impossible for him to win against Duan Fei.
Secondly, these people didn't believe that Lin Xuan could concoct pills with his bare hands. At most, he was just trying to please the crowd.
Lin Xuan wasn't anxious at all. He calmly waited for the result.
"It's been so long, there's no movement. Could it be a waste pill?" Someone asked.
"It's very possible. If that's the case, the Pill Emperor Hall is finished!"
Soon after, this suspicion spread in all directions. Everyone thought that Lin Xuan had concocted a waste pill.
Those from the Pill Emperor Hall felt their hearts in their mouths.
Weng! Weng!
The stone platform trembled slightly as a faint blue light appeared.
"It's out, but the light is so weak!" A disciple from the Medicine Emperor Hall laughed.
Boom!
Before he could finish his sentence, a beam of blue light gushed out, as bright as the sun, illuminating the surroundings.
Everyone covered their eyes with their hands as they exclaimed in shock.
"Heavens, what a dazzling light!"
"Impossible, didn't he concoct a waste pill?!" Those from the Medicine Emperor Hall couldn't believe it.
Seeing the light, Duan Fei's face sank.
His expression was gloomy as he clenched his fists. Spiritual energy surged violently in his body.
"Damnable fellow, what did he concoct?!"
Duan Fei couldn't understand why the light was so dazzling.
Song Qianqian's face was also pale. Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.
On the viewing platform, President Meng Chuan narrowed his eyes as he stared at the blue light in the sky. He took a deep breath and said, "Top-grade Clarity Pill."
"Top-grade!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they sucked in a breath of cold air.
Generally, high grade medicinal pills were already very good. However, above high grade medicinal pills, there was a type of peak grade medicinal pill.
This kind of pill could only be refined by very few alchemy grandmasters, and it also required a certain amount of luck.
Elder Blackheart's expression was ugly. He had said before the competition that Duan Fei would definitely win.
However, he was slapped in the face again.
He was about to go crazy. Ever since he met Lin Xuan, every word he said could not be fulfilled.
He was an Alchemy Grandmaster. Even Song Yunxing had to be respectful to him. However, he was repeatedly defeated by Lin Xuan.
This brat is very strange. He seems to specialize in restraining me! The more Elder Blackheart thought about it, the more terrified he became.
"This kid can't be allowed to live!"
Murderous intent appeared in his eyes. If he allowed Lin Xuan to succeed, he would only become more and more unlucky.
Song Yunxing, who was standing at the side, trembled slightly. He could feel the terrifying killing intent, and his heart was in turmoil.
"It seems like Elder Blackheart wants to kill him. That's good. There's no need for a person like Lin Xuan to live in this world."
The people from the Medicine Emperor Courtyard sat there with ugly expressions. However, the Pill Emperor Hall elders beside them were all laughing.
"Young Master Lin is too naughty. He always makes it so thrilling." Elder Jin laughed. "We're old. Our hearts can't withstand such torment."
"What do you know? This is exciting!"
The group of elders was in a good mood.
"* * * * * luck, it must be * * * * * luck!" Duan Fei roared in his heart. "I don't believe you can keep being lucky!"
"Hmph, it's just luck. It will run out sooner or later."
"In the next few rounds, I will make you suffer a crushing defeat!" Duan Fei said angrily.
"Is that so? I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. Good luck will follow me forever." Lin Xuan's lips curled up.
"Hehe, Old Han, this little fellow is not bad." Meng Chuan laughed.
Di Que nodded. "To be honest, I don't know where his bottom line is."
"However, it doesn't seem difficult to defeat Duan Fei."
As the old monsters conversed, another change occurred in the square.
A blinding blue light soared into the sky, illuminating the surroundings.
"Damn, another top-notch pill!"
Everyone was in an uproar. Had they seen a ghost today? Two top-notch pills had appeared.
At that moment, everyone was shocked as they looked towards the source of the light.
Even Lin Xuan frowned. Before this, he hadn't discovered any experts.
The blue light was like the sun, preventing everyone from opening their eyes.
Lin Xuan used his ocular technique and looked behind him.
There was a red-robed alchemist there. He wore a cloak that concealed his entire body.
He's actually an alchemist from a small faction? Lin Xuan frowned. This person gave him a strange feeling. It reminded him of someone from the Nether Hall.
However, if this person belonged to the Black Dragon Sect, what was Elder Blackheart's identity?
For a moment, Lin Xuan frowned. He couldn't figure it out.
Originally, he thought that Elder Blackheart was from the Black Dragon Sect, but now, he had his doubts.
Lin Xuan wasn't the only one who was puzzled. Everyone else was shocked.
A top-notch pill was too shocking. If Lin Xuan was able to refine it, everyone would be able to accept it.
After all, Lin Xuan had made the Medicine Emperor Courtyard suffer a great loss a few days ago.
But now, an unknown alchemist had actually managed to refine a top grade pill. This was simply too shocking.
Duan Fei's face couldn't be any darker. Before the competition, he disdained to compete with Lin Xuan and the others.
But now, two people had surpassed him in alchemy. Furthermore, neither of them was a third-grade alchemist.
This dealt a heavy blow to his confidence.
"Who is this person?"
Not only were Lin Xuan and the others shocked, but Meng Chuan and the other seniors were also surprised. The elders looked at each other and shook their heads.
They didn't recognize the red-robed alchemist.
"Which faction is he from?" Meng Chuan asked.
The middle-aged man beside him hurriedly flipped through the information and quickly said, "He's a participant from the He family."
"He family?" Meng Chuan frowned slightly as he looked at the red-robed alchemist.
Sensing everyone's gazes, the red-robed alchemist raised his head.
Under the red cloak was a very young and tender face. His long and narrow eyes actually carried a trace of green light.
"How is this possible? He's so young!" Everyone was alarmed.
Lin Xuan pursed his lips. "From the looks of it, he's at most fourteen or fifteen years old. He's just a child!"
"It's impossible for him to refine top-notch pills at such a young age." Di Que shook his head.
If there really was such an alchemy genius, they would have long heard of him.
"Check his details," said Meng Chuan in a deep voice.
"Found him. He's a fifteen-year-old participant from the He family. His name is He Nian."
"He Nian?"
Many Elders in the spectator stands tried their best to recall, but they had never heard of this name.
"What do you think?" Meng Chuan asked.
"I think I saw his alchemy technique just now. It doesn't look like a technique from Heavenly Mountain," said an elder beside him.
