Even Qi Zimo from High Wind City couldn't help but look at Bingqian in a higher light after hearing this shocking fact. The others, including Young Master Hua, were all dumbstruck.
Xu Zhen from Huangtu City was the closest to Bingqian. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but ask.
"I don't believe it. Senior Muyun, did you secretly give Bingqian an extra set of ingredients? Otherwise, how could there be two pills?"
Qushui City's Yi Hao also raised his suspicions, "I agree with brother Xu on this matter. I also don't believe that someone as weak as Bingqian can create two pills. I hope senior Muyun can investigate this! "
The two of them had never seen eye to eye before. This was the first time their opinions were in agreement.
This was because they knew that if the elders admit that Bingqian's Yuan Increasing Pill was effective, then it wouldn't be them fighting for the next round anymore. Both of them would be eliminated.
The two of them had been mocking Bingqian for being the weakest. If they were to be eliminated by Bingqian, then how could they accept this?
Muyun Old Devil glared at them. She was furious at the arrogant words of these two juniors.
"So you're saying that I, as the host, cheated with them?"
"I didn't say that ….."
Xu Zhen muttered in a low voice, "That Liu Bing Qian is your disciple. She has always been at the bottom for many years. Even if she is a little biased, it is also human nature!" His voice was neither soft nor loud, but it was just enough to be heard by others.
"Impudent!" Muyun Old Devil had a high position of authority. If not for her ugly beard, she would be a leading figure in Tiandao City's alchemy world. Since when had she been talked about like that?
Xu Zhen was impulsive, so he obviously regretted his words as soon as he spoke. He shut his mouth and didn't say anything else.
Muyun Old Devil's expression was extremely gloomy.
However, she felt that it was strange as well. Could it be that Bingqian really used an ancient method to concoct pills? One pill, two pills. Could it be that the ancient method had special effects?
"Bingqian, do you have anything to say?"
Bingqian hesitated. As someone who concocted two pills, even she was shocked and didn't know how to reply. At this time, Ye Zifeng pulled her back and signaled for him to speak.
Ye Zifeng smiled and looked at Xu Zhen, "Let me ask you. One Yuan Increasing Pill. How many Fire Wind Fruits, Golden Wood Grass, Fire Dream Leaves and Spirit Converging Ginseng are needed?"
Xu Zhen was slightly taken aback. She looked at the pretty boy with a disdainful expression.
"Who do you think you are? You're just a little follower. What right do you have to talk to me?"
From afar, the calm voice of High Wind City's Qi Zimo could be heard.
"If I calculate it to the extreme, it is naturally less than what Lady Muyun has given me. However, what are you trying to say?"
Muyun Old Devil was afraid that some of the ingredients would be wasted during the refining process, so she was a bit more generous. One portion of ingredients was around 30% of what she needed.
Ye Zifeng smiled and looked at Qi Zimo, "If you give me too much, I'll refine too little. What do you think will happen when I refine pills?"
"So you're saying that when the purple light appeared, the first pill was already concocted. You guys spent so much time concocting the second pill?"
Ye Zifeng smiled, "You're very smart."
"You ….. So that's how it is." Qi Zimo's eyes lit up and nodded. He finally understood what was going on.
No wonder why Ye Zifeng and the others spent so much time concocting pills after the purple light appeared. So it turns out that he had already planned to concoct two pills.
After hearing Ye Zifeng's words, one of the alchemist elders finally understood what was going on.
"I got it. Refining pills using the ancient method can save a portion of the medicinal ingredients. At this time, if I make use of the extra medicinal ingredients to continue refining pills, I will be able to refine two pills!"
"Not bad." Ye Zifeng smiled and nodded. This wasn't hard to understand. It was basically how to concoct pills to the extreme.
That old senior couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air: "To be able to calculate the amount of ingredients to this degree, it's really too shocking. To be able to see such skill in this competition, it's really not a wasted trip …"
As soon as his words left his mouth, his companions echoed him in an instant. When Xu Zhen and Yi Hao heard the elders praising Bingqian and Ye Zifeng, it was as if they had been hit in the head with a stick.
Muyun Old Devil saw that Ye Zifeng helped her out and even explained everything to her. While she was shocked, her impression of Ye Zifeng improved a bit.
"Alright. Since the five groups have finished concocting, I'll have to ask the elders to come up and decide on the top three."
"Let's take a look at these pills." When the seniors heard this, they looked at each other and smiled. They already had a plan in their hearts. They crossed the red line that had been drawn in advance and started judging from Qi Zimo, who was first in line.
Liu Bingqian's eyes flashed with excitement. It was obvious that she was very nervous about the results of the alchemy competition.
With Ye Zifeng's help, her fate of being at the bottom was finally going to change. If she loses, then she will lose the right to participate in the next alchemy competition and lose her confidence as an alchemist. This will be bad for her growth. However, if she succeeds, she doesn't even know how to celebrate.
She closed her eyes and looked at Ye Zifeng with a look of anticipation and fear.
Ye Zifeng smiled, "Bingqian, they'll start judging from Qi Zimo. We still have some time. There's no need to be so nervous."
Liu Bingqian's body trembled. Even her voice was trembling, "But ….."
"Don't worry. Have some confidence in yourself. Have some confidence in me too. If I wasn't confident, then why would I ask your master to change the competition to the last place? You should know that this is not only a battle for your dignity, but also a battle for you to regain your confidence. "
Liu Bing Qian's expression changed slightly. She let out a soft "en" sound. When she opened her eyes again, the expression in her beautiful eyes had become much more confident.
At the same time, Qi Zimo became the first participant to advance to the second stage of the competition under the praises of all the seniors.
"No wonder Zimo is the champion of the alchemy competition. His alchemy skills are truly impressive."
"Such a big Yuan Increasing Pill must have extraordinary effects. If you use one, you'll probably need to use two right?" The person who said this was obviously referring to something else.
Muyun Old Devil had a smile on her face as she led these seniors to the second row.
"Next, Tonghuo City's Young Master Hua ….."
"Young Master Hua's alchemy skills are as good as ever. However, you're still lacking compared to Qi Zimo."
Hearing this, Young Master Hua pretended to be humble and cupped his hands, "Zimo's skills are much better than mine. Every time I try my best, I'm still lacking compared to him. When the second round starts, I'll have to ask brother Zimo for some pointers again. "
Qi Zimo glanced at him coldly. He was disgusted by the way others acted in front of him and did something else behind his back.
In reality, Young Master Hua's skills were way below Qi Zimo's. He was just trying to raise himself up.
However, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. Compared to the other groups, Young Master Hua's alchemy skills were indeed better. This was the reason why he was so arrogant.
"From the looks of it, Young Master Hua shouldn't have any problems advancing to the next round, right?" An old man asked for the opinions of others and said with a smile.
"Hold on ….."
Ye Zifeng's expression was indifferent. He slowly raised his hand. This action undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention. It made young master Hua's heart become even more complicated. He gloomily looked at Ye Zifeng.
Muyun Old Devil's expression froze, "Ye Zifeng, it's not your turn yet. What do you have to say?"
Ye Zifeng smiled, "I'm just a bit confused about the order of the judging. You guys haven't even judged the other three groups yet. Why did you let Young Master Hua advance? "
Hua Shao coldly looked at Ye Zifeng. His eyes were filled with viciousness.
"Are you saying that the pills you concoct are better than mine?"
Ye Zifeng smiled and his eyes suddenly became sharp, "That's exactly what I'm saying!"
"What?" Young Master Hua had always bullied Bingqian. He didn't think that Leizhou City would have someone as hard to deal with as Ye Zifeng.
Ye Zifeng paused for a bit and continued, "Let's be clear. It's her. Bingqian's Yuan Increasing Pill is better than yours!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Bingqian and his eyes were filled with encouragement.
Liu Bing Qian smiled knowingly. She lightly gritted her teeth and proudly puffed out her chest. Her beautiful eyes were filled with confidence.
"That's right, I, Liu Bing Qian, solemnly request all the seniors, before deciding whether or not Young Master Hua will advance, first come and judge the pill I refined!"
After saying this, her chest heaved up and down. It was as if her heart was going to jump out of her chest.
In the past, in front of so many people, she always wanted to find a place to hide. Every time after the competition, she would pack up and immediately return to Leizhou City.
But now, she had regained her confidence. She was willing to say what she was thinking in front of everyone.
Without Ye Zifeng, all of this wouldn't have happened.
Applause.
Ye Zifeng smiled and looked at her. Everyone started to applaud. Next were Yang Jing, Muyun Old Devil, and the other people from Mu Clan. Gradually, as if they were infected by the atmosphere, more people started clapping.
"Not bad. Not bad. Not bad at all."
