Yun Fan followed Li Moqing's surprised gaze and also looked in that direction. He saw a young man wearing a pale-green robe slowly walking in from the entrance.
He was very handsome and could be considered to be on the same level as Li Moqing. However, he always gave off an air of superiority and gave off a feeling that no one should approach him.
"Brother Li, do you know this person?"
Yun Fan asked in an indifferent voice.
Li Moqing nodded solemnly and said, "I do. However, I am a little puzzled. Why would this fellow come all the way here to participate in our Northern Xuan Region's Alchemy Grand Meeting?"
"Is this person not from our Northern Xuan Region?" Yun Fan frowned.
Although many cultivators from the other three regions had come to join in the fun, the main participants were still alchemists from the Northern Xuan Region.
Li Moqing nodded again and said, "That's right, he is not an alchemist from our Northern Xuan Region. Could it be that this fellow is also here for the Yuan Sheng metal?"
While Yun Fan and Li Moqing were talking, the young man in the distance seemed to have discovered Li Moqing's presence. The corners of his mouth instantly lifted into a disdainful arc. Soon after, he steadily walked towards the two of them.
As he approached, he directly ignored Yun Fan's existence and fixed his gaze on Li Moqing. With a soft smile, he said, "Brother Moqing, we actually meet again here."
Li Moqing frowned. There was no joy on his face at seeing an acquaintance. Instead, he asked with an unfriendly expression, "What are you doing here?"
The young man clicked his tongue twice before saying, "Who made the rule that alchemists from the Eastern Xuan Region are not allowed to participate in your Northern Xuan Region's Alchemy Grand Meeting? Why? Could it be that brother Moqing is afraid that I, Bei Gongwen, will participate in this grand meeting? "
"What do I have to be afraid of?" Li Moqing said.
"Afraid that I, Bei Gongwen, will steal brother Moqing's limelight and first place?" Bei Gongwen ridiculed.
Li Moqing coldly snorted and said, "If it was your brother Bei Gongwen, he would have the qualifications to say so. As for you … humph, I don't give a damn about you!"
"Alright, I'll see you in the arena later!"
After saying that, Bei Gongwen turned around and planned to leave. However, before he left, he turned around and said, "Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you that my fire controlling technique has already reached the level of Thousand Daos. Even my brother, Bei Gongli, personally said that I will soon become a true Divine Heavenly Sovereign. Ha … hahaha … "
As Li Moqing listened to Beigong Wen's wanton laughter, he clenched his teeth. For the first time, anger appeared in his eyes.
Yun Fan asked indifferently, "Brother Li, who is this Beigong Wen?"
Li Moqing was silent for a moment, before he suppressed his surging emotions and calmly replied, "This Bei Gongwen is an alchemy genius in the Eastern Xuan Region, and his elder brother is the famous Bei Gongli in the Eastern Xuan Region!"
Yun Fan nodded slightly upon hearing this. From Li Moqing's angry appearance, it was obvious that there was quite a grudge between him and Bei Gongwen.
Li Moqing was silent for a moment. Soon after, he said, "He said that his fire controlling technique has already reached the level of Thousand Daos. If this is true, he may not be far from the Divine Heavenly Sovereign … it seems that I can only do my best in this Alchemy Grand Meeting. However, the final result may be that I will lose more than I win!"
Li Moqing sighed softly and said, "If he really becomes the champion, not only will he take away the Yuan Saint Gold, but he will also ruthlessly slap the face of our Northern Xuan Region's alchemy world!"
He knew that president Geng Jie had set up such a huge prize this time to stimulate the enthusiasm of the Northern Xuan Region's alchemists, so that even more outstanding alchemists would appear in the Northern Xuan Region in the future.
If the champion was taken away by an alchemist from another Xuan Region, not only would the treasure fall into someone else's hands, but it would also severely affect the morale of the Northern Xuan Region. This would cause the Northern Xuan Region's alchemists to become even more disheartened, and they would no longer dare to face the Eastern Xuan Region's alchemists in the future.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to take away the champion of this Alchemy Grand Meeting."
Yun Fan said in an indifferent voice.
The Yuan Saint Gold was his only hope of raising the Ghost Weeping God Deterring Ruler to the Saint Grade. How could he allow others to snatch it away?
"You are really confident …" Li Moqing smiled bitterly in a helpless manner.
Even he did not dare to say that he would be able to defeat the current Bei Gongwen, let alone Yun Fan, who was much younger than him.
At this moment, a loud gong sounded. Soon after, a solemn voice spread from the middle of the stage in all directions, "Competitors, please enter the stage!"
Under this command, all the participating alchemists walked from the resting area to the competition grounds. According to their own waist tag, they walked to the alchemy table corresponding to the competition.
Yun Fan also walked to his alchemy platform. However, unlike the other competitors, he did not carefully inspect the equipment on his platform to see if there were any problems. Instead, he quietly stood with his hands behind his back, closed his eyes and rested.
When the competitors beside him saw this, they shook their heads slightly and revealed a mocking expression. As expected, he was young and inexperienced. If there were any problems during the competition, would he still be able to act all high and mighty?
At this moment, Li Moqing was also standing in front of his alchemy platform. Although his alchemy platform was not close to Bei Gongwen's, it was still very far away.
However, the two of them happened to be facing each other as they stared at each other.
Bei Gongwen looked at Li Moqing and muttered with a smile, "Li Moqing, today I will let you personally witness how you will lose to me!"
Li Moqing was naturally able to understand the former's intention from his expression. However, he still firmly stared back at him and did not show any signs of falling into a disadvantageous position.
He knew that he was the last hope of the Northern Xuan Region and he definitely could not collapse here. Otherwise, the entire alchemy world of the Northern Xuan Region would become the laughing stock of the other three regions.
Over the years, he was indebted to Geng Jie's care and teachings in alchemy. This was the reason why he was able to achieve his current achievements.
Today, the presidents of the other three regions' Alchemy Associations were invited to watch the competition. If he lost, president Geng Jie would definitely feel even worse than him and it would be difficult for him to step down.
Therefore, he had to win this battle!
Li Moqing tightly clenched his fists. His eyes were bright as he roared in his heart, "I, Li Moqing, will definitely not lose!"
His eyes were filled with determination as he looked towards the main stage. Geng Jie had already led the other three regions' Alchemy Associations to their seats and were looking towards him.
"I will let all of you see that I, Li Moqing, am not inferior to any of the geniuses from the other three regions! Even if Bei Gongli is here today, I will still win this competition! "
At this moment, the old host on the central high platform spoke once again. His clear voice echoed throughout the entire venue.
"All competitors are ready. I will now announce the medicinal pill for this competition. It is … the Saint Martial Ascension Pill!"
The entire venue was in an uproar when they heard the name of the medicinal pill. Gasps could be heard from the main stage.
