As for Kong Zhi, who was originally unhappy with Guo Ming, his displeasure disappeared when he saw the situation.
Only Dong Jianwu, who did not know the truth, still had a worried look on his face.
"Oh, is that true? Then what do you want to do, Instructor Guo? "Luo Hong asked Guo Ming.
Hearing Luo Hong's words, Guo Ming was even happier. Without thinking, he said, "I suggest that we immediately kick Linlong out of the Alchemist Alliance and disqualify him from participating in the assessment in the future. This will serve as a warning to others and prevent something like this from happening again in the Alchemist Alliance … As for Instructor Kong Zhi, I suggest that the president call for a meeting among the instructors and disqualify Kong Zhi."
"Very well …"
Seeing Luo Hong nod, Guo Ming thought that Luo Hong had agreed. He thought that his long-time enemy had been defeated so easily. The smile on his face became even wider. Who would have thought that Luo Hong's expression would suddenly change. "Instructor Guo, your suggestion is not bad. However, what you don't know is that the one who allowed Linlong to participate in the assessment wasn't Kong Zhi. It was me, the president, Luo Hong!"
"What?" Hearing this, Guo Ming was so shocked that he almost jumped up.
The surrounding people were also shocked. They did not expect the situation to take such a turn.
If it was Kong Zhi who used his power for personal gain, Guo Ming could still suppress him. However, it was different if it was Luo Hong. After all, Luo Hong was the president of the Alchemist Alliance.
"Why, Guo Ming, do you want to disqualify me?" Luo Hong looked at Guo Ming and sneered.
"This …" Guo Ming inhaled a breath of cold air. However, at such a crucial moment, he could see that he had completely offended Luo Hong. Hence, he said something that no one expected.
"President, if you accepted bribes and used your power for personal gain to allow Linlong, who does not have any qualifications, to participate in the assessment, the instructors of the Alchemist Alliance can also dismiss you according to the Alchemist Alliance's rules!" Guo Ming said loudly.
At the same time, he even felt his body lighten. After all, if this matter was made public, Luo Hong would have to rely on his identity as the president to disqualify him from being a instructor.
This Guo Ming was really ambitious. Seeing that Guo Ming was willing to cut off his means of retreat, many people could not help but think to themselves.
"Is that so? Then do you have any evidence that Instructor Kong and I took bribes?" Luo Hong's pupils shrank.
"Is there even a need to think about it? A person who doesn't have the qualifications to be an alchemist is actually able to participate in the third grade alchemist qualification test. Even if he doesn't accept bribes, there must be some unspeakable transaction involved," Guo Ming said proudly.
"Very well, then I, Luo Hong, can tell you that the reason why Lin Long was able to participate in the third-grade alchemist qualification test is because he submitted the Heaven Clear Pill's recipe. Because of this recipe, Instructor Kong was able to refine the Heaven Clear Pill!" Luo Hong said.
"What?"
Upon hearing Luo Hong's words, everyone present was surprised.
They knew that the Heaven Clear Pill was a difficult problem that had troubled all alchemists in the Chaos Sky Continent for several hundred years.
"How is this possible? How could Linlong give out such a recipe? How could Kong Zhi concoct the Heaven Clear Pill?" Guo Ming shouted.
Although Luo Hong's expression didn't seem to be fake, Guo Ming didn't believe him. One must know that Guo Ming was also a person who wanted to become famous. He had also spent a few years on the Heaven Clear Pill's formula, but reality told him that it was impossible to completely decipher the formula.
"Instructor Kong, let him take a look," Luo Hong said.
Immediately, Kong Zhi took out the Heaven Clear Pill that he had spent a Herculean amount of effort to refine the day before.
When they saw the three unique faint yellow halos on the surface of the Heaven Clear Pill and smelled the unique fragrance that wafted out after the bottle was opened, the examinees couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"It is indeed the Heaven Clear Pill. I didn't expect our Alchemist Alliance to be able to refine the Heaven Clear Pill."
"This is great. Now, the alchemists from the other regions won't dare to put on airs in front of us."
"Our alchemists from the Central Region can finally hold our heads high.
Although these people were only ordinary alchemists, the excitement on their faces was even more exaggerated than Dong Jianwu and the others.
It was no wonder that they were so excited. After all, this was a difficult problem that had troubled the entire continent's alchemists. However, the alchemists from the Central Region had finally managed to refine it.
After confirming that it was really the Heaven Clear Pill, Guo Ming's body went limp and he almost collapsed to the ground.
This was because with this Heaven Clear Pill, no matter how Kong Zhi and Luo Hong used their power to fill their pockets, Guo Ming couldn't go against them. Moreover, from the current situation, they didn't seem to be abusing their power at all.
"Instructor Guo, now tell me, based on this formula, does Linlong have the qualifications to participate in the third-grade alchemist qualification test?" Luo Hong looked coldly at Guo Ming and asked.
"Of course, of course." Guo Ming quickly nodded his head.
What a joke. If he couldn't even participate in such a formula, what else could he participate in?
"Alright, since Guo Ming loves the Alchemist Alliance, I, Luo Hong, won't make things difficult for you for now. You can sit at the side and watch the test," Luo Hong said.
Guo Ming's face darkened and he slumped into a chair at the side. This time, he had offended President Luo Hong. His days in the future would definitely not be good.
However, he quickly regained his spirits. After all, he was only doubting Luo Hong. There was no way that Luo Hong could use this to suppress him. He, Guo Ming, still had a day where he could rise again.
After such a delay, the test began again.
After Linlong and the other fifteen people entered the cubicles, several disciples of the Alchemist Alliance brought the materials to their respective cubicles. Following Dong Jianwu's order, the test officially began.
In order to prevent people from cheating, before the assessment began, Dong Jianwu had already sealed the Runic Space Rings of the people with Runic Space Rings with a special barrier to prevent people from bringing Huo Long Pills and extra materials into the assessment site.
"President, why did you suddenly come to the test site?" In the tense test site, Kong Zhi looked at Luo Hong and asked.
To be honest, he finally felt that Luo Hong, who he had always disliked, was a little more pleasing to the eye.
"I just happened to pass by and suddenly remembered that Linlong is participating in the test today, so I came in to take a look," Luo Hong said.
When he said this, he was really glad that he happened to walk in. Otherwise, if Linlong was really driven out by Guo Ming and never returned, it would definitely be a great loss to him and the Alchemist Alliance.
With this thought in mind, he could not help but glare at Guo Ming behind him. Guo Ming's heart skipped a beat. He did not know how he had provoked Luo Hong again.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, a burning smell came from several cubicles. It was obvious that some people had failed to refine pills. However, there were a total of three sets of materials, so a burning smell did not mean that they had been eliminated.
"Huh …" At this moment, Kong Zhi let out a soft cry of surprise, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
"What's wrong?" Dong Jianwu and Luo Hong could not help but ask.
"Little Brother Lin has not started refining pills yet," Kong Zhi said.
"What?" Luo Hong and Kong Zhi could not help but cry out.
The two hurriedly looked at the cubicle where Linlong was. Sure enough, they did not smell any medicinal fragrance or pill refining sounds coming from Linlong's cubicle.
In other words, Kong Zhi was right. After such a long time, Linlong still had not started refining the Huo Long Pill.
"Could it be that Little Brother Lin is stumped by the Huo Long Pill?" Dong Jianwu subconsciously asked.
Luo Hong and Kong Zhi's expressions immediately turned ugly. If Linlong did not know how to refine the Huo Long Pill, then it was clearly embarrassing for them. Moreover, it would also give Guo Ming a chance to cause trouble.
After all, the Huo Long Pill was the most basic test to become a third-grade alchemist. If Linlong did not even know how to refine the Huo Long Pill, then they would definitely lose face by allowing Linlong to participate in the test.
Although it was still justifiable for Linlong to participate in the test based on the formula alone, no matter what, it showed that their eyesight was too poor.
At the side, the dejected Guo Ming naturally saw this situation, and he immediately became even more spirited. He said in a strange tone, "Hehe, I've already said that some people are not strong enough and are not qualified to participate in this test."
This time, Luo Hong and Kong Zhi really did not know how to refute Guo Ming's words. At this moment, they could only hope that Linlong was just taking a nap, and it was not that he did not know how to refine the Huo Long Pill.
However, as time passed, they gradually felt a little despair, because there was still no movement from Linlong's cubicle.
It seemed that Linlong really did not know how to refine the Huo Long Pill. Luo Hong could not help but shake his head.
As for Kong Zhi, while he was disappointed, he could not understand at the same time. Based on Linlong's performance yesterday, he should have the ability to refine the Huo Long Pill.
If it was not for the fact that he could not enter the cubicle of the examinees, he would have definitely lifted Linlong's curtain and walked in to see what was going on.
Very quickly, an hour passed. Then, the first person successfully refined the Huo Long Pill. From the unique fragrance of the Huo Long Pill that came from that cubicle, Kong Zhi and the others knew that the person in that cubicle had successfully refined the Huo Long Pill.
Then, the curtain of the cubicle was lifted, and a handsome young man walked out. As expected, it was Ge Xiangming's proud disciple, Xue Fei.
Xue Fei was holding a small bottle in his hand, and inside it was the Huo Long Pill that was still emitting steam.
Dong Jianwu walked over, took the small bottle, and entered the cubicle to check it. When he came out, he said, "I used up two sets of ingredients."
Then, he took the small bottle and let Kong Zhi and Luo Hong appraise the quality of the pill together.
In the end, they came to the conclusion that the Huo Long Pill refined by Xue Fei was of high quality.
It was of high quality. In half an hour, he had used up two sets of ingredients, and he was the first to successfully refine it out of the fifteen people.
As expected of Ge Xiangming's most outstanding disciple, such a result made Kong Zhi and the other two nod their heads.
