The Two Great Royal Cities
Chapter 656:
"Thanks a lot for this."
Li Tongtian placed the Essence Transformation Pill on the table and walked to Ning Yue's side. "If not for you, I wouldn't have advanced to the next round so easily."
"Don't belittle yourself. With your alchemy skills, it's not too difficult for you to make a supreme Essence Transformation Pill within an hour."
Ning Yue knew Li Tongtian's abilities. A supreme Essence Transformation Pill was not a problem for him.
Among all the alchemists participating in the alchemy competition, Li Tongtian's alchemy skills were enough to rank in the top five!
After all, Li Tongtian had relied on his talent in alchemy and not his martial skills to become the fake Saint.
"Zhao Kuo and Ren Xiangtian are about to form their pills too."
Ning Yue wanted to say something, but his eyes narrowed as he looked at the first and second round tables.
Bam! Bam!
Zhao Kuo and Ren Xiangtian slapped their cauldrons at the same time and took out a round pill.
Essence Transformation Pill!
It had only been ten minutes since the start of the elimination round, but Zhao Kuo and Ren Xiangtian had already refined the Essence Transformation Pill.
"The elimination round is the time to show off your true abilities. Any carelessness will lead to failure," Li Tongtian murmured with a serious expression.
The alchemy competition had gathered almost all the alchemy geniuses in the entire Great Xia Kingdom. After three rounds of selection, only 16 alchemists emerged.
It was now the fourth elimination round. If they won, they would advance to the next round. If they lost, they would have to pack up and go home.
In the third round, he was still able to hold back, but in the fourth round, it was truly like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their own abilities!
Swish!
After placing the Essence Transformation Pill on the table, Zhao Kuo walked down the round table and flew towards Ning Yue.
Ning Yue was expressionless as he watched Zhao Kuo approach him. He knew what Zhao Kuo wanted to do without thinking.
"Haha, Ning Yue, let me tell you first. You will most likely be facing the fake Saint of Danwu College, Hang Dong."
As expected, the first words Zhao Kuo said after he arrived were filled with complacency.
Zhao Kuo's voice was very low, so low that only Ning Yue could hear him.
"Danwu College has sent three fake Holy Sons this time. Hang Dong's alchemy skills are very strong. If you want to compete with him on the same stage, think about whether you can refine a transcendent-grade Essence Transformation Pill first."
After saying that, Zhao Kuo looked at Ning Yue complacently.
"Can I ask you something?" Ning Yue automatically filtered out Zhao Kuo's question and asked, "Have you lost your mind? Or perhaps, you're here to give me transcendent origin crystals again? Or do you want to kneel down? "
"You!"
Upon hearing Ning Yue's mocking words, Zhao Kuo's face turned livid with rage.
Relatively speaking, losing the essence crystals to Ning Yue was secondary. What made him feel most embarrassed was that he had to kneel down and admit his mistake to Ning Yue in front of so many people!
This was what he could not accept the most!
Ever since he had knelt down to make the Heavenly Oath, he had been thinking about revenge against Ning Yue all the time!
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Kuo tried his best to calm himself down and said in a deep voice, "Don't try to win with your words. Since you're so arrogant, I might as well tell you another unfortunate news."
"People from Great Hill Royal City are here!" Zhao Kuo said coldly, "Let me give you a friendly reminder. If you don't want to die, you'd better stay in Danwu College and don't go out. Otherwise, you'll die a horrible death!"
"What does it have to do with me whether people from Great Hill Royal City are here or not?" Ning Yue asked doubtfully.
"It does, of course it does."
Zhao Kuo grinned evilly. "Situ Wen is from Great Hill Royal City. He didn't participate in the alchemy competition this time, which means he's most likely in danger.
"Back in the Alchemy Union, everyone knew that you had a conflict with Situ Wen. Now that Situ Wen is missing, you're the biggest suspect.
"Oh right, I heard that Great Hill Royal City's Situ Family sent two experts." Zhao Kuo paused for a moment, then told Ning Yue through his soul, "One of them is the Situ Family's current Family Leader, whose cultivation base is at the peak of Yin-Yang realm. The other one is the Situ Family's Old Ancestor, whose cultivation base is at the half-step Manifestation realm!"
Swoosh!
Ning Yue's heart skipped a beat.
With his current force, he was not afraid of a martial artist at the peak of Yin-Yang realm. But if he were to encounter a half-step Manifestation realm martial artist, he would have no choice but to die!
Although he was shocked, Ning Yue's expression did not change. He said calmly, "You're an idiot. Whatever you say is right. I don't want to refute you."
"Who are you calling an idiot?!" Zhao Kuo said fiercely.
"I'm too lazy to talk to an idiot. It's dragging down my intelligence."
Shrugging his shoulders, Ning Yue replied, "There's a type of person in the world that will pull your IQ to the same level as him and use his abundant experience to defeat you. There's only one way to deal with this kind of person, and that's to use your fists. "
Swoosh!
As he spoke, Ning Yue slightly released his aura and quietly suppressed Zhao Kuo.
"I won't lower myself to your level!"
Sensing the aura emanating from Ning Yue's body, Zhao Kuo's expression changed slightly. He glared at Ning Yue, then walked away.
Swoosh!
As soon as Zhao Kuo left, Ren Xiangtian came over.
"Ning Yue, the force behind Zhao Kuo is familiar with the Situ Family. You'd better be careful." Ren Xiangtian lowered his voice and said, "Situ Wen is from Great Hill Royal City, and Zhao Kuo is from King Jie City."
"Great Hill Royal City and King Jie City are the only cities in the capital. There are many hidden talents in them, and they even have half-step Manifestation realm martial artists!"
Seeing that Ning Yue did not take this matter seriously, Ren Xiangtian hurriedly said, "Only a few people in the capital know about Situ Wen and Zhao Kuo's background. Ordinary people think that they belong to the Alchemy Union, but they don't know how powerful the force behind them is."
"Different situations call for different actions," Ning Yue said.
"Ning Yue, half-step Manifestation realm martial artists are not easy to deal with," Li Tongtian said.
At this moment, Li Tongtian said, "I suggest that after the Alchemy Competition ends, you return to the Dan Wu Academy to participate in the Holy Son test. As long as you can become the Holy Son, even if a half-step Creation Realm martial artist wants to touch you, they would have to weigh their own strength first.
"Thank you for the reminder. I'll think about it," Ning Yue said in a low voice with a slight frown.
Boom!
At this moment, a sound rang out from round table number three.
Everyone followed the voice and looked over, only to see a sparkling and translucent medicinal pill in Xie Yan's hand.
The pill emitted a faint white mist. It was obvious that it was a supreme Yuan Converting Pill in Xie Yan's hand!
"Gulp!"
When everyone in the square saw the pill in Xie Yan's hand, they swallowed a mouthful of saliva and revealed a shocked expression.
In less than 30 minutes, no, it should be less than 20 minutes, Xie Yan had actually refined a supreme Yuan Converting Pill! This time was indeed heaven-defying!
Crack! Crack!
At the same time, two more cracking sounds came from the other two round tables.
Pill explosion!
Xie Yan refining a supreme Yuan Converting Pill had a huge impact on He Hu and Sun Ke. It caused their pills to explode and they were eliminated from the competition.
"Cough cough, there are four people who will successfully advance to the next round. They are Zhao Kuo, Ren Xiangtian, Li Tongtian, and Xie Yan who refined a supreme Yuan Converting Pill!"
