The bold declaration of Liu Bing Qian, a person who had been at the bottom for a long time, along with the reactions of the seniors, became the focus of everyone's discussion. The hall became noisy.
There were people who supported Bingqian, but there were also people who were slandering her.
"Alright. Stop arguing. Everyone quiet down."
As the host of the competition, Muyun Old Devil felt like she had to say a few words.
"Ye Zifeng is not lying. The alchemy competition should be judged by everyone. After judging everyone else's pills, then we can make a decision. Thus, Tonghuo City's Hua Shao will not be able to advance. Let's wait for everyone else to be judged before announcing the results. "
As the organizer of the alchemy competition and the host, she was a well-known leader in Tiandao City's alchemy industry. Whatever she said, others would naturally listen to her.
Only Hua Shao stared at Ye Zifeng. If it wasn't for Ye Zifeng's suggestion to change the judges and humiliate him in front of everyone, then Hua Shao would've advanced already. The one who ruined his chances of becoming famous was Ye Zifeng.
Ye Zifeng smiled at him, "Don't stare at me like that. Think back to what you did to Leizhou City before. If you don't want people to know about it, then don't do it. Your stupid suggestion to disqualify Leizhou City is ….."
Ye Zifeng's eyes suddenly turned sharp. It was as if he could see through a person's body and into their soul.
"This is the reason why you lost this year's alchemy competition!"
"You …" Young Master Hua was taken aback. His eyes were filled with surprise. To him, being talked about like this by a pretty boy brought by Bingqian was the biggest humiliation in his life.
Also, from Ye Zifeng's tone, it seems like not only can they advance, they can even beat him in the second round. How can Hua Shao accept this?
However, just as the intense gazes between the two of them began to collide, they were quickly stopped by Mu Yun Old Devil's cough.
"Next. Qushui City's Yi Hao!"
For the sake of speed, Yi Hao's pills were inferior in terms of quality. He could barely produce the shape of the pills. In terms of the grade of the pills, it was probably still in the middle of the mortal grade.
Therefore, the old seniors weighed it in their hands a few times and probed it with their True Qi. They shook their heads in unison. Their evaluation of the medicinal pill was obviously also relatively low.
"Yi Hao, you have to work harder. When you have time, learn from Liu Bing Qian. Look at how hard she works …"
"That's right. Even if you could occasionally get third place in the past, that's all in the past. You have to work harder now!"
These words that he had said to Liu Bing Qian before were now used on Yi Hao. He naturally felt extremely aggrieved in his heart. He thought to himself that his level was actually about the same as before, and he did not abandon his alchemy training, so why was the treatment he received so different?
Although the elder didn't say it out loud, he had already listed Yi Hao's name on the elimination list.
"Alright, next, let's go take a look at Xu Zhen of Wasteland City."
Xu Zhen had already stepped forward to greet him with a flattering smile.
"Seniors, thank you for your hard work. This Yuan Increasing Pill was carefully refined by me. I used the exclusive secret method of our Wasteland City!"
Some of the seniors waved their hands, indicating that there was no need for him to waste his breath. They would see the quality of the pill themselves.
"Hmm, this Yuan Increasing Pill is not bad. Compared to the one Yi Hao just refined, it is indeed much better."
When Xu Zhen heard this, a complacent smile appeared on his face. He looked deeply at Yi Hao. The two of them were old rivals. Now that he was praised by the seniors, he was naturally overjoyed.
"But, in my opinion, this Xu Zhen will inevitably be eliminated …" "Alright, let's hurry up and look at the next group!"
A casual sentence made Xu Zhen feel a little embarrassed. He originally thought that as long as he could suppress Yi Hao, he would be able to advance. Now, it seemed that his real opponent was Liu Bing Qian, who he had always looked down on!
He and Yi Hao looked at each other. The bitterness in their eyes was clear. The wheel of fortune had truly turned!
"The last group, Lei Zhou City's Liu Bing Qian!"
When the seniors of the alchemy world heard this, their eyes lit up and they walked towards Liu Bing Qian with a face full of anticipation.
In fact, when they were watching from outside the red line, they already wanted to see the situation of the pill refined using the ancient method. What's more, the results of the ancient method were gratifying. This was the only pill that had two pills in this competition!
A group of old men and middle-aged men gathered in front of the two Yuan Increasing Pills. The shock on their faces was evident.
"Not bad, not bad. Looking at the pattern of the pill, it is indeed refined using the ancient method! Young Lady Liu, where did you learn this skill? "
The person next to him patted his shoulder and said, "Old Sha, I know your heart is full of questions. However, now is the time for scoring. Everyone is watching. Don't ask too many questions."
Old Sha nodded and smiled. He narrowed his eyes and stretched out his hand. Just as his finger touched the edge of the pill, he was suddenly burned by the red spirit energy on the pill. He immediately retracted his hand.
"This is … Red spirit energy? Could it be that this is a high-grade Huang level pill?! "
Old Sha sucked in a breath of cold air and couldn't help but shout excitedly.
"What? No way, a high-grade Huang level Yuan Increasing Pill? "
There are some special types of pills that, when a high-grade Huang level pill or above, will have a change in the aura of the pill. Obviously, this ancient pill was one of them!
"Medicinal pills refined using the ancient method are indeed extraordinary! It's been a long time since I've seen such an alchemist in the alchemy competition. "
"A high-grade Huang level Yuan Increasing Pill has a certain nourishing effect for those under the Martial Spirit Realm. To think that this girl from the Liu Clan was able to refine such a pill."
Even for those who didn't understand alchemy, when they heard that it was a high-grade Huang level pill, they felt as if they had been electrocuted. Their minds went into a state of half-stupor.
Outside the arena, Liang Nine's face was especially ugly. His face looked like it had been ruthlessly stepped on by someone.
"Brother Nine, what should we do? This is a high-grade Huang level pill. That little brother just now wanted us to buy it at the highest price. What should we do?!"
Liang Nine scolded, "You ask me what to do? Who am I supposed to ask? You have to know that I just signed a blood contract with him! No wonder I thought it was strange that this kid carried a blood contract with him. I'm afraid he's been planning to trick people for a long time! "
Such a big man had been viciously tricked by a young man who hadn't even grown the hairs on his mouth. Who could he complain to about the grievance in his heart?
… …
It wasn't that a high-grade Huang level pill had never appeared in the alchemy competition before. The problem was that the person who made this pill wasn't Qi Zimo. It was Liu Bingqian, who was always at the bottom!
Muyun Old Devil was shocked by her disciple. She didn't tell Liu Bingqian the method to make the Yuan Increasing Pill. She was worried that Bingqian wouldn't even pick the right ingredients. Who would've thought that Bingqian would amaze everyone!
She stared blankly for a moment. Although she was still shocked, as the host, she had to ensure that the competition would continue. Then, she fixed her beard and adjusted her expression. She smiled at Old Sha and the others.
"Everyone, since you've evaluated the pills of the five groups, then it's time to announce the results, right?"
The elders looked at each other and smiled. They already knew who would advance to the second stage of the competition. In the end, after a round of voting, Elder Sha announced the names.
"First place is Zimo, second place is Hua Shao, and …"
Out of the five people, two people had already been eliminated. Out of the remaining three people, only one would be able to participate in the second stage!
Liu Bingqian bit her lips. Compared to before, her expression was much more confident. However, it wasn't easy to change a person. Her body couldn't help but tremble a little.
"Also, Leizhou City's Liu Bingqian! The three of you will advance to the next round of the competition for the top three! "
The result was very obvious. However, when Elder Sha said it, everyone felt a little different.
Because, this was the first time the elimination system was used in the competition. The elimination was very strong, and the last two people were eliminated at once. In this kind of situation, Liu Bing Qian, who was always at the bottom, was actually able to stand out. It was really unexpected!
"This ….. This can't be real right?"
Liu Bing Qian stared blankly at Old Sha. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. She stretched out her hand and pinched her wrist. She felt an incomparable pain. Only then did she realize that she had really escaped from her fate of being at the bottom. She had even advanced to the second round of the competition for the first time!
This ….. This was too unbelievable!
"This is great!" Liu Bingqian was ecstatic. She turned around and wanted to jump into Ye Zifeng's arms to congratulate him.
From everyone's point of view, this victory belonged to Bingqian. However, Bingqian knew that if it wasn't for Ye Zifeng, she wouldn't even be able to pick the ingredients. She wouldn't even be able to use the ancient alchemy method.
"Big brother rough guy ….. We did it! We really did it!" Liu Bingqian had been suppressing her happiness for a long time now. She excitedly grabbed Ye Zifeng's hands.
It had been so long, but no one had been able to help her realize her long-cherished wish of turning the tables in the alchemy competition. Her Liu family couldn't do it, Song Shiyun couldn't do it, and even her master could only occasionally give her some pointers.
But now, Ye Zifeng had helped her achieve her goal. He had completed the promise they made before the alchemy competition.
Ye Feng smiled indifferently. Both of his wrists … Liu Bing Qian's tender, jade-like hands were gripping him to the point that it hurt.
"Bingqian, don't be too excited. You should know that what happened before was just an appetizer. The real show is just about to start. "
He slowly raised his head and smiled in Qi Zimo's direction.
