"He's still fooling around on the stage at such a crucial moment. He really doesn't take the competition seriously."
A few mentors on the stage couldn't help but shake their heads.
"That's right. It's fine if he doesn't have the ability to pass the competition, but he actually doesn't take such an important competition seriously. No, I have to go over and remind him," Mentor Guo Ming said. After saying that, he stood up and walked over to Linlong.
How could Guo Ming let go of such an opportunity?
It seemed like it was an accident that this kid managed to refine the third-grade Huo Long Pill that day, Guo Ming thought to himself.
Seeing Linlong playing with the Star Vine, Guo Ming, who thought that Linlong was weak, naturally thought so.
Since the mentors had the right to inspect the venue and Linlong's actions, Luo Hong, Kong Zhi, and the others couldn't say anything even though they saw Guo Ming suddenly walking out.
However, even Luo Hong, Kong Zhi, and the others didn't think that Linlong was trying to figure out how to refine the pill. They also thought that Linlong's ability was limited.
Sigh, what a pity. Kong Zhi thought to himself that he had to be taught properly in the future.
In his opinion, Linlong was talented. As long as he was taught seriously, he would definitely have a bright future.
It could be said that in the entire venue, only one person had a look of surprise on his face. That person was the mentor of the Alchemist Alliance, Yu Chenghe, who had come up with this new refining method the day before.
Yu Chenghe didn't notice Linlong at first. He only turned around to look when he saw that Linlong's actions were different from the others. At first, he also thought that Linlong was just fooling around and giving up on himself.
However, when he realized that the other party was playing with the Star Vine, and the method he was "playing" with it was actually somewhat similar to the method he used to mix the Star Vine to refine the third-grade Luo Cheng Pill, he was naturally surprised.
This was because he had almost succeeded using the Star Vine in the past.
It could be said that if the Star Vine could really be used in the refining process, not only would the refining speed be greatly increased, but it could also improve the medicinal properties of the third-grade Luo Cheng Pill. Unfortunately, he couldn't refine it successfully.
However, this young man was using this method on the spot, and he seemed very familiar with it. Could it be …
Yu Chenghe's heart immediately started racing.
As a strict and innovative teacher, he would naturally be excited if there was such a new development in the concoction method of a type of pill, not to mention that this was a method that he had tried many times but had never succeeded in.
At this moment, he was hoping that the young man could really use this method to refine the Luo Cheng Pill.
In the midst of Yu Chenghe's excitement, Guo Ming also walked to Linlong's side.
"Hahaha, looks like there's a teacher who can't stand it anymore."
"I wonder if the tutor will give him a warning or send him off the field."
"If it were me, I would directly chase him out. After all, such a serious competition is not a game for children. Messing around without any skill is simply a disgrace to our Alchemist Alliance."
Seeing that Guo Ming was obviously here to give Lin Long advice, some people in the audience naturally looked down on Lin Long.
Hearing such contempt, Liu Jingtong, who was below the stage, was even happier.
"Linlong, this is an alchemy competition, not a place for you to fool around. If you don't have the ability, then please step off the stage immediately. Don't embarrass our Alchemist Alliance, don't embarrass your tutor Kong Zhi!" Guo Ming walked to Linlong's table and said with a serious expression.
Looking at him, it seemed like he was really thinking for the Alchemist Alliance. However, his heart was already blooming with joy. With just one sentence, he directly insulted Kong Zhi. What else could be more worth being happy about than this?
Although his voice was not loud, in such a silent scene, it almost spread throughout the entire square.
"This kid is actually Tutor Kong Zhi's disciple."
"He actually participated in the competition with such a low level of skill. I suspect that he doesn't even have the strength of a third-grade alchemist."
"Is it important to have strength? It's fine as long as he has a backer."
"I really didn't expect Tutor Kong Zhi to be such a person. I was previously deceived by his appearance."
…
Many people did not know Linlong's identity. They all thought that Linlong was relying on Tutor Kong Zhi to participate in this alchemy competition. These people all sighed at the dark secrets behind the alchemy competition.
Hearing such a voice, the faces of the people from the Alchemist Alliance could not help but become a little ugly, especially President Luo Hong and Kong Zhi.
However, they could not refute it now because there was indeed such a situation on the stage.
"Tutor Guo Ming, I've let you down." Linlong smiled slightly. Immediately after, he seemed to have made a mistake with his hands. As a result, the medicinal liquid that he prepared earlier on the stage suddenly sprayed towards Guo Ming's face.
Guo Ming did not expect such a thing to happen. Because the distance between them was too close, he could not avoid it at all. He was directly sprayed by the medicinal liquid on the table.
The medicinal liquid was black and slightly sticky. It directly stuck to his face, causing his old face to look like a big tabby cat.
Such a situation immediately caused the people below the stage to burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, this is too funny."
"Poor Tutor Guo Ming. He actually got his face messed up by a guy who has no strength."
"This Linlong is doomed. He will definitely be directly kicked off the stage."
…
Hearing the laughter below the stage, Guo Ming, who felt humiliated, felt a surge of anger in his heart. He angrily said, "Scram! Quickly get off the stage! The alchemy competition does not need trash like you!"
Originally, Guo Ming did not intend to directly kick Linlong off the stage. After all, just Linlong playing with the Heavenly Star Vine was not enough for him to be kicked off the stage. However, it was different now. While playing with the Heavenly Star Vine, he made such a scene and 'insulted' his tutor. He completely had the reason to kick Linlong off the stage.
Of course, because everything seemed to be too sudden, he did not think that Linlong did it on purpose. It was purely an accident.
Seeing this scene, Liu Jingtong, who was below the stage, laughed so hard that he almost applauded.
On the stage, Gu Qi shook his head slightly. He originally thought that Linlong had some fighting strength. Who would have thought that he would actually make such a big joke of himself. It seemed that Linlong's strength was not even comparable to his.
Kong Zhi immediately frowned. After all, Linlong was his disciple. How could he allow Guo Ming to kick Linlong off the stage just like that?
Although Linlong's playing with the Heavenly Star Vine had caused Guo Ming to be disgraced, as long as he argued for what was right, he could still make Linlong stay on the stage.
Luo Hong's expression also turned ugly. He valued Linlong's tutor so much. Naturally, he would not allow such a thing to happen.
However, before they could stop it, someone had already stood up from the stage and walked towards Guo Ming and Linlong.
"Guo Ming, what are you doing?" This person shouted as he walked.
It was Yu Chenghe's tutor!
Seeing that Yu Chenghe, who was strict by nature but usually did not have any conflicts with others, was actually so angry at this moment, those who knew Yu Chenghe were all stunned.
They did not know how Guo Ming had offended Yu Chenghe's tutor to actually make him so angry.
Guo Ming was also stunned. He did not know what was wrong with Yu Chenghe.
Because of Yu Chenghe's age and knowledge, he was usually very respectful to Yu Chenghe.
Although Yu Chenghe was a tutor like Guo Ming, he could be said to be a veteran of the Alchemist Alliance. In terms of knowledge, Guo Ming could not compare at all.
"Guo Ming, why are you still not leaving? Don't you know that your actions may very well kill off a new method of refining the Luo Cheng Pill? Don't you know that you may very well become the greatest sinner in the history of the Alchemist Alliance! "Instructor Yu Chenghe still couldn't calm the rage in his heart.
F * ck, he had actually risen to the level of being the greatest sinner in the history of the Alchemist Alliance. Hearing Yu Chenghe's scolding, everyone was stunned once again.
They did not know what this had to do with being the greatest sinner in the history of the Alchemist Alliance and the new method of refining the Luocheng Pill.
Seeing Yu Chenghe scolding him three times in a row, Guo Ming, who felt that he had lost all face, was so angry that his face turned red. At this moment, he did not care whether he was a veteran or not. Instead, he scolded back, "Yu Chenghe, you old b * stard, are you crazy?"
Seeing the two tutors actually hurling insults at each other on the stage, the audience below the stage was naturally in disbelief.
"Enough, the two of you hurry up and come back here!" Luo Hong stood up and said extremely sternly.
The two great tutors of the Alchemist Alliance were actually making a fool of themselves on the stage, causing him, the president, to lose all face. Thus, in order to prevent the Alchemist Alliance's reputation from being damaged, he naturally hurriedly stopped them.
As for Linlong, Luo Hong did not want to punish him, so of course he did not mention him.
Seeing that the president had spoken, Guo Ming and Yu Chenghe could only stare at each other a few times before returning to their original positions and sitting down.
Such a commotion naturally broke the train of thought of many of the competitors present. However, there were still some people who were not affected, such as Gu Qi. After Guo Ming and Yu Chenghe returned to their seats, he, who had been motionless, suddenly began to move.
Not only him, but some of the more outstanding third-grade alchemists also began to move.
Moreover, looking at their appearances, they seemed to have a card up their sleeves. The steps of refining the pill were also neither too fast nor too slow.
It seemed that the difficulty of this new competition was only relatively speaking. Gu Qi and the other powerful young talents did not even pay attention to it. Such a thought flashed through everyone's minds.
After Yu Chenghe returned to his seat, although he was still angry, his gaze was still focused on Linlong. However, his expression quickly turned ugly, because he realized that Linlong was no longer using the Starry Vine. He didn't know if it was because the Starry Vine had been damaged or something else, but he had changed to another medicinal ingredient, the Ziling Flower.
The Ziling Flower was the medicinal ingredient that he had used to successfully refine the third-grade Luo Cheng Pill. At this moment, how could Yu Chenghe not know that Linlong was simply capable, and that he was not playing around just now?
It was very likely that Linlong already had the confidence to use the Star Vine to refine the third-grade Luo Cheng Pill.
Thinking that it was all because of Guo Ming that he had missed such an opportunity, Yu Chenghe immediately turned his head and fiercely glared at Guo Ming.
After returning to his seat, the unconvinced Guo Ming was naturally constantly paying attention to Yu Chenghe. When he saw Yu Chenghe fiercely glaring at him, Guo Ming immediately glared back.
If it was not for this situation, he would definitely have rushed over and wrestled with Yu Chenghe.
