"When I answered Emperor Spirit Pill, my ancestor immediately knew that I had received the inheritance!" Nangong Yanran said, "My ancestor said that I had passed this question, but he did not give me a score on the spot!"
"Well, there is no answer to this question itself. You are indeed lucky!" The great elder said something very fair.
"No answer? Can't the Emperor's Spirit Pill cure the five declines of heaven and man?" Nangong Yanran asked.
"I don't know!" The great elder shook his head, "I guess no one knows either!"
"Why?" Nangong Yanran was even more confused.
"Because since the ancestor who created the Emperor Spirit Pill passed away, no one in the world can refine the Emperor Spirit Pill, and they don't know what the formula of the Emperor Spirit Pill is, so it can't be verified!" said the Great Elder.
"So that's it!" Nangong Yanran suddenly said, "Is it because of this that the Dan Pagoda didn't spread the news about the Emperor's Spirit Pill?"
"Yes!" The great elder nodded, "Without a prescription for elixir, and no one can refine it, it is just an empty talk that the Emperor's Spirit Pill can cure the five debilities of heaven and humans. Who would believe it?"
After a pause, the Great Elder continued, "But since the Little Pill Pagoda allowed you to pass, it means that the Emperor Spirit Pill does have miraculous effects. The key problem is that no one can refine it!"
"Although we don't know anything about the Emperor's Spirit Pill, as long as you pass the test, Yanran!" The third elder didn't think too much and said happily, "If no one can answer the question of the five declines of heaven and man, you will undoubtedly be the number one.
name!"
"Isn't it too early to tell?"
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded.
When the five elders and Nangong Yanran heard this, their expressions changed at the same time, and they looked at the figure that had stopped in the void outside the Dan Pagoda.
"Boy, who are you? Do you know that it is rude to eavesdrop on other people's speech?" the third elder yelled angrily.
"Guess who I am?" The young man stood in the sky with a stern expression, exuding an aura that was difficult for others to decipher.
"Duan Qiuyang?" the great elder asked hesitantly.
"What, Duan Qiuyang, the successor of the Alchemy Demon?" The expression on the third elder's face changed.
When Shen Taiyang and Nangong Yanran heard this, their hearts tightened.
"Oh, you're not so scared, are you?" Duan Qiuyang crossed his arms and looked at them sarcastically, "Is this the virtue of the five great elders of the Alchemy Pagoda?"
"Bastard!" the third elder scolded, "Duan Qiuyang, pay attention to your tone and identity!"
"Identity?" Duan Qiuyang said contemptuously, "In terms of seniority, you should call me master, senior, so I should at least be your equal, right? Is there a problem with talking to you like this?"
"You..." The third elder was speechless.
"Third elder, don't get excited!" The first elder gave the third elder a wink, then took a step forward, looked at Duan Qiuyang and said, "Is your master okay?"
"My master is very good, don't worry about it!" Duan Qiuyang said coldly.
"Is your master still angry?" the great elder asked.
"My master has a broad mind, so I won't argue with you. However, as a disciple, I should seek justice for my master!" Duan Qiuyang's tone gradually became calmer.
Hearing this, Nangong Yanran also stepped forward and said: "Mr. Duan, Yanran doesn't understand the grievances of the previous generation. But if you are seeking revenge against Danta for your master, then it is up to Yanran to settle things with you!"
"Nangong Yanran, are you challenging me?" Duan Qiuyang looked directly at Nangong Yanran.
"Yanran has no intention of starting a war, but if this is the only way to resolve the grievances between the two parties, Yanran will not retreat!" Nangong Yanran said righteously.
"Okay, if you can beat me and win the first place in the Alchemy Conference, I, Duan Qiuyang, swear that I will never take revenge on the Alchemy Tower again in this life!" Duan Qiuyang vowed solemnly.
"It's a deal!" Nangong Yanran said.
"Oh, you seem to be very confident?" Duan Qiuyang said lightly, "Do you think you are the only one who knows about the existence of the Emperor's Spirit Pill?"
"Huh?" Nangong Yanran frowned when she heard this.
The Great Elder sighed: "His master Duan Chaonan has also entered the inheritance place, and has specially studied the Emperor Spirit Pill. If he has obtained the true inheritance of Duan Chaonan, it is not surprising that he knows the Emperor Spirit Pill!"
"That's right, I happen to know the answer to the tenth question too!" Duan Qiuyang stared at Nangong Yanran and said, "You have no advantage over me!"
When Nangong Yanran heard this, she remained silent.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a voice coming from the small Dan Pagoda.
"The results of the second round will be announced below!"
As soon as he finished speaking, just like before, a golden light flew out and turned into a gold list, which was filled with names.
"Wocao, why are there still negative points?"
"It's too miserable. Half of the people have negative scores, five or ten points, which is simply unsightly. Is the second round really so difficult?"
The melon-eating crowd looked at the list and scores on the gold list, and started talking lively. They were curious about what questions were asked in the second round, which actually stumped so many people.
"As for the top ten, I'm still more concerned about who is in the top ten!"
"That's right, I only care about the top ten. It should be the same as the last round, and it will be announced by Little Danta himself, right?"
Sure enough, not long after, the small Dan Pagoda sounded again.
"The top ten rankings of the second round will be announced below!"
From tenth to seventh place, Wu Feipeng of the Purple Thunder Sect unexpectedly broke into the top ten. The casual cultivator brothers Zhao Yulong and Zhao Shichang dropped two places, but overall it was not too unexpected.
"Sixth place, Tiandan Pavilion Yang Ning, ninety points!"
The sixth place was announced, and there was some commotion at the scene.
After all, Yang Ning has always been considered the favorite to win the championship. Fourth place in the first round can be said to be a letdown. Why did he fall behind in the second round?
The sixth place place disappointed many people who were optimistic about him.
"How could it be sixth?" Yang Ning from the Tiandan Pavilion camp was also dumbfounded.
He thought that with his results, he had every chance to compete for first place, or at least be among the top three.
"Fifth place, Dayan Dan Sect Ma Shicheng, ninety-five points!"
"Fourth place, Sima Zuo of the Divine Capital, ninety-seven points!"
The birth of Four or Five undoubtedly caused another wave of waves.
People lamented that the Dayan Dan Sect was still strong, and at the same time they also laughed at the incompetence of Sima Zuo, the god capital.
Sima Zuo was ambitious, but seemed to perform poorly. He was only seventh in the first round. Even though he improved in the second round, he still didn't break into the top three.
"How could such a thing happen?"
Sima Zuo clenched his fists, feeling angry inside.
He actually couldn't even make it into the top three?
"The second place is Danta Nangong Yanran, with ninety-nine points!"
With the sound coming from the Xiaodan Pagoda, the scene instantly boiled.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Duan Qiuyang's mouth, looking at Nangong Yanran and saying: "Nangong Yanran, your name appeared before mine, do you know what this means?"
Because the order is read backwards, the name that appears first is ranked last.
Nangong Yanran ranked second, and the first place was of course Duan Qiuyang.
"Nangong Yanran, you lose this round!" Duan Qiuyang was inevitably a little proud of being able to defeat Nangong Yanran, the heir to the Dan Pagoda.
"You actually lost?"
The five elders of Danta all looked sad.
Nangong Yanran's loss to Duan Qiuyang is equivalent to Danta's loss to Duan Chaonan.
"Mr. Duan, you don't seem to have heard clearly, right?" Nangong Yanran said calmly, "Didn't you notice that the third place was not reported, but the second place was directly reported?"
"Huh?" Duan Qiuyang frowned when he heard this.
"It seems like this. I didn't hear the third one just now, and I went directly to the second one, Yanran!"
"What...is going on?"
Not only the Danta elders, but everyone present was also discussing this issue.
Is it a slip of the tongue?
"Tie for second place, Alchemy Demon Duan Qiuyang, ninety-nine points!" A voice sounded again in the small alchemy tower.
Only then did people suddenly realize.
It turns out there are two who tied for second place, so naturally there is no third place.
"Mr. Duan, we have the same score. It seems we can't decide who will win, right?" Nangong Yanran said with a smile.
"Hmph, even if we are tied this round, you will definitely lose to me in the next two rounds!" Duan Qiuyang snorted.
"That's not necessarily the case!" Nangong Yanran was equally confident in her own strength.
"Stop arguing!" The great elder suddenly interrupted the two of them in a deep voice, "Don't you think there is a stronger opponent above you?"
When Nangong Yanran and Duan Qiuyang heard this, they realized something and their expressions suddenly changed.
Tied for second place, that means the first place has nothing to do with them.
Could it be...
At this time, I heard shocking words coming from the Little Dan Pagoda.
"First place, Xiao Chen from the Meteor Sect, perfect score!"
