Zhou Tong's Wrath
"Why can't I replace him?"
At the registration area of the Alchemy Union.
Zhou Tong's face was flushed red as he said angrily, "The student who signed up previously couldn't come because of something. Can't someone else participate in the alchemy competition?"
"There is no why."
A man in his thirties or forties said impatiently.
"I can tell you this very clearly. Don't even think about changing people to participate in the alchemy competition. Scram back to where you came from."
As he spoke, the man unleashed his soul power and pressed down on Zhou Tong.
The three-star badge on the man's shoulder indicated that he was a third-level alchemist, just like Zhou Tong.
However, the man's soul power was stronger than Zhou Tong's. He was a peak third-level alchemist, only one step away from becoming a fourth-level alchemist.
On the other hand, Zhou Tong was only a late-stage third-level alchemist.
Pfft!
Facing the man's third-level soul power, Zhou Tong was no match for him. He coughed out a mouthful of blood and his face paled.
"Who is that? How dare he talk back to Master Chen?"
"Yeah, Master Chen is a peak third-level alchemist."
"He is the president of the Alchemy Union of Tianxuan City. I heard that he wants to replace him."
"Replace him? If he really wants to replace him, Master Chen has no reason to stop him. "
"You guys don't know about this."
Hearing the discussion of the martial artists, a third-level alchemist said in a low voice, "I heard that Master Chen is close to the Zhang family. The Zhang family must be behind this."
"The Zhang family?"
The surrounding martial artists all revealed a look of sudden realization.
Zhang Wenyong died in Tianxuan City, and Zhou Tong was the president of the Alchemy Union of Tianxuan City.
Therefore, it was reasonable for the Zhang family to make things difficult for Zhou Tong.
"Chen Ming, we have a martial artist in Liwang City who can't participate in the alchemy competition. Help us replace him."
At that moment, a martial artist walked into the Alchemy Union.
On this warrior's shoulder, there was a five-star badge.
It was obvious that this martial artist was a fifth-level alchemist!
"So, it's Master Hu Wen. You could have just sent a message for this small matter. There's no need for you to come personally."
Seeing the five-star badge on Hu Wen's shoulder, Chen Ming immediately retracted his soul power and said with a smile, "Leave the registration to me, and you can change the person at any time."
Xiu!
Hu Wen nodded in satisfaction. With a flick of his sleeve, a piece of paper flew toward Chen Ming.
"This is the name list for our replacement. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first. I still have to go back and supervise those fellows to train properly."
After saying this, Hu Wen left the Alchemy Union.
"Let me see you out."
Chen Ming took the paper and followed behind Hu Wen.
Chen Ming only returned to the Alchemy Union when Hu Wen disappeared at the end of the street.
"Chen Ming! Didn't you tell me that there was no way to substitute people for the alchemy competition? Why can that person be replaced! "
Zhou Tong was exceptionally furious as he said in a low voice.
"Don't be unreasonable here. Hu Wen is a fifth-level alchemist, and you're only a third-level alchemist."
Chen Ming said disdainfully, "Moreover, the registration time for the Alchemy Union is this afternoon. If you come here and cause trouble, even if I lock you up, no one will say anything."
"Pfft! Don't tell me that the registration time is in the afternoon. " Zhou Tong spat and said, "The registration time is in the afternoon. All the alchemy unions have already completed the registration a week ago."
"Hmph! If I say no, then no! "
Chen Ming snorted coldly. Immediately, his peak third-level soul power poured out and pressed toward Zhou Tong again.
Puchi! Puchi!
Zhou Tong's breath was already weak. Now that he was being suppressed by Chen Ming's soul power, he spat out two mouthfuls of blood and his breath became even weaker.
"Chen Ming, you're using your power to get even with me!"
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Zhou Tong scolded, "I want to see the higher-ups of the Alchemy Union. I want to complain about you!"
"Hehe, using your power to get even with me? Complain about me? " The corner of Chen Ming's lips curled up and he laughed sinisterly, "To tell you the truth, I'm using my power to get even with you today. What can you do about it?"
"Back in Tianxuan City, you stole my position as the president. You didn't expect it, right? Now that I've settled down in the capital's Alchemy Union, I'm doing much better than you. "
"It's just a third-rate city's Alchemy Union. If you want to complain, go ahead. Let's see if anyone cares about you."
Whoosh!
Chen Ming's words caused a huge uproar in the Alchemy Union.
Originally, they thought that Chen Ming was entrusted by the Zhang family. Now, it seemed that there were other secrets.
"No wonder Chen Ming made things difficult for Zhou Tong. So there's a grudge between them."
"Didn't you hear what Chen Ming said? Zhou Tong stole his position as the president. This is a huge grudge. He definitely can't tolerate it."
"That's right. Stealing the president's position is no different from cutting off Chen Ming's future. If it was me, I would've kicked Zhou Tong out of the Alchemy Union long ago. How could I still allow him to behave so atrociously?"
The surrounding martial artists' discussion caused Zhou Tong's face to turn cold.
A bunch of nonsense, completely a bunch of nonsense!
The position of president in Profound Sky City's Alchemy Union was a fair competition. Whoever refined a third-grade medicinal pill first would be able to become the president.
At that time, Chen Ming cheated and was exposed by the previous president. In the end, he was expelled from Profound Sky City.
Who would have thought that now that Chen Ming was doing well, he would put the blame on him.
"Chen Ming, do you dare to take off your shirt!"
Zhou Tong said in a clear voice, "Back when you were fighting for the position of president of the Alchemy Union, you were exposed by the old president because you cheated. If I remember correctly, there should be a black mark on your chest. That mark is the aftereffect of your cheating!"
"Snake Heart Flower!"
Zhou Tong continued, "In order to refine medicinal pills faster, you added a small amount of Snake Heart Flower into the cauldron. Unexpectedly, the old president discovered it. Hence, the poisonous fire attacked your heart and you were devoured by the Snake Heart Flower!"
"If it wasn't for the old president and I working together to expel the venom from the Snake Heart Flower, you would've died long ago. How could you still live until now?"
Swoosh!
Zhou Tong's words caused the surrounding martial artists to be dumbfounded.
Things happened too fast, so fast that they could not react in time.
"The Snake Heart Flower's venom is very high but adding a small amount during the process of refining medicinal pills can speed up the process of forming pills."
"Although it can speed up the process of forming pills, the medicinal pills refined contain extremely strong venom and can't be consumed at all."
"The Snake Heart Flower is a taboo herb in the alchemy world. Chen Ming couldn't have really used it before, right?"
"It's hard to say. Look at Chen Ming's expression, it's very ugly."
Hearing that, the surrounding martial artists shifted their gazes towards Chen Ming.
At this time, Chen Ming's fists were tightly clenched and his chest was heaving up and down.
Accurately speaking, Chen Ming was on the verge of exploding with rage!
"Zhou Tong, so many years have passed. To think that you don't even frown when lying."
