In fact, Geng Jie naturally knew why Bei Gongjian had been targeting him for so many years. However, he and his wife were in love with each other, so how could he be blamed?
Previously, he still felt guilty towards Bei Gongjian and tolerated him. However, after all these years, he had already thought things through.
Since Bei Gongjian had been making things difficult for him, there was no need for him to endure any longer. He wanted to show Bei Gongjian that he, Geng Jie, was not a pushover.
"Moqing, do your best. Today, whether or not the Northern Xuan Region's reputation can be preserved will depend on your performance!"
Geng Jie looked at Li Moqing expectantly. The latter seemed to be able to read his mind as he slowly and firmly nodded his head in his direction.
"Hmph, a little trash taught by an old trash actually dares to compete with the sun and moon? Today, I will show you the prowess of the Eastern Xuan Region! "
Bei Gongjian smiled in disdain as he glanced at Geng Jie and snorted heavily.
In the arena, there were already some contestants who had chosen to withdraw from the competition and dejectedly left the competition area.
Moreover, it wasn't just these people. There were even some contestants who were still hesitating between continuing and withdrawing.
"Hurry up and get lost. The champion of this year's competition is Bei Gongwen. All of you trash should obediently get off the stage and seriously watch my performance from the side!"
Bei Gongwen's voice rang out, causing many alchemists to glare at him in anger. However, they didn't know how to refute him and could only sulk inwardly.
Bei Gongwen coldly snorted and lightly smiled. "Indeed, a bunch of trash! Now, I will show you what true alchemy skills are! "
As he spoke, Bei Gongwen waved his hand and directly threw over a hundred spiritual materials into the sky. On his palm, a dense white flame appeared. The terrifying temperature caused the surrounding space to distort.
When everyone saw this flame, they all exclaimed inwardly, and the complexions of those alchemists in the surroundings changed even more.
They could feel that although they were both alchemists, Bei Gongwen's flame was more than ten times stronger than their flame!
The strength of an alchemist's alchemy skills was largely dependent on the strength of the flame. The opponent's flame was so much stronger than theirs. How were they going to play?
"It's the Heavenly Flame! Old fellow, you actually gave him your 'Ardent Sun True Flames'. You're really willing to spend a lot of money! "
Geng Jie gritted his teeth and glared at Beigong Jian.
Beigong Jian leisurely took another sip of tea and smiled proudly. "There's nothing I can do about it. My Beigong Clan has such a condition."
Hearing this, Geng Jie felt even more stifled. The Heavenly Fire was a rare treasure. In the entire Alchemist Guild, only he, the Guild Master, had one.
Moreover, in terms of strength, it was not as strong as the Ardent Sun True Flames.
After all, he was now the face of the Northern Xuan Region's Alchemist Guild. Although he had the intention to pass his heavenly flame to Li Moqing in the future, now was not the time.
However, Beigong Jian was one step ahead of him and gave the Ardent Sun True Flames to Beigong Wen …
The scales of victory and defeat once again tilted towards Bei Gong Wen!
At this moment, Li Moqing could feel the power of Beigong Wen's Ardent Sun True Flame. He could not help but grit his teeth.
In terms of the strength of the flame, Beigong Wen had already firmly suppressed him. Now, he could only make up for this gap in terms of fire control!
Thinking of this, Li Moqing also shouted softly and directly threw over a hundred spiritual materials into the sky. He summoned his own flame and instantly shot out a hundred lines of fire, enveloping all the spiritual materials and starting to burn and refine them.
The biggest test for an alchemist when refining the Sacred Martial Into Void Pill was their ability to control fire.
To be more precise, refining all Sacred Grade Elixir Pills required the support of a powerful Fire Control Technique.
This was because refining Sacred Grade pills required thousands of spiritual materials. If one did not have powerful fire control skills, it was impossible to refine so many spiritual materials successfully.
Therefore, the necessary condition to become a Sacred Grade alchemist was to have powerful fire control skills.
And this test was able to reflect the true fire control skills of all the contestants!
Even people as strong as Beigong Wen and Li Moqing were able to complete the refinement of over a hundred spirit materials in an instant without any hesitation.
The other alchemists who continued to compete were naturally contestants who had some confidence in themselves. They did not seem to be at a disadvantage in the refining of the first hundred spiritual materials.
Yun Fan was also among this group of people. He silently controlled the hundred lines of fire and started to refine the hundred spiritual materials at the same time.
As time passed, many contestants started to control the second hundred lines of fire, the third hundred lines of fire …
As the number of lines of fire increased, the atmosphere of the scene gradually became solemn.
Some of the contestants' foreheads had already started to sweat. Clearly, they were already somewhat strained, but they still tried their best to persevere and endure.
Beigong Wen looked at the four hundred lines of fire in the sky above him and sneered with a relaxed expression. Then, with a soft shout, the fifth hundred lines of fire soared into the sky and started to refine even more spiritual materials.
Not long after he completed this step, Li Moqing, who was standing far away, also let out a soft shout and started to refine five hundred spiritual materials at the same time.
Under the lead of the two of them, the rest of the contestants also started to refine even more spiritual materials. No one was willing to fall behind, and they all bitterly persevered.
"This young master wants to see how long you trash can persevere!"
Beigong Wen sneered. Then, with a wave of his hand, the sixth hundred lines of fire soared into the sky!
Seeing this scene, despair appeared in the eyes of many alchemists. The sixth hundred lines of fire were something that they could only look up to.
There were even many alchemists who, because of the shock in their hearts, caused the five hundred lines of fire from before to become unstable, and directly failed.
Then, it was the seven hundredth line of fire …
Meng Miao had persevered until this point, but she had already reached her limit. She helplessly shook her head and could only dejectedly leave the scene.
Then, it was the eight hundredth line of fire …
Those who succeeded were few and far between.
Nine hundred lines of fire …
In the spacious arena, there were only a few contestants who were still persevering. However, many of them were already on the verge of collapse and had clearly reached their limits.
"Haha, your Northern Xuan Region is really weak. You are actually all defeated by this young master at this step of refining!"
Beigong Wen sneered, and his hand moved again. "Then now … I will let you all witness my fire control technique with a thousand lines of fire!"
The tenth hundred lines of fire rose in response, and exclamations could not help but ring out around the arena. A thousand lines of fire, that was the threshold to become a Saint Grade alchemist!
"I will definitely not lose!"
Seeing this, Li Moqing let out a low roar and also began to activate a thousand lines of fire to refine spiritual materials at the same time.
However, the heavens did not go according to one's wishes. Perhaps it was because Li Moqing was not very familiar with controlling a thousand lines of fire, or perhaps it was because of his excitement and nervousness that caused his mood to fluctuate, and he was unable to control it perfectly.
Li Moqing's thousand lines of fire lasted for a few breaths before they suddenly collapsed, and the spiritual materials were destroyed!
"It's over!"
Geng Jie's heart thumped, and his old face was filled with despair.
Beigong Jian laughed heartily and said, "So your Northern Xuan Region is actually so useless. You don't even have a single person who can complete the fire control technique with a thousand lines of fire …"
However, his laughter did not last for long. He suddenly discovered that a thousand lines of fire had soared into the sky from an inconspicuous corner.
Those gorgeous flames were even more stable than Beigong Wen's, and it shocked everyone to the point that they were speechless!
