In less than a quarter of an hour, all the seats in the martial arts performance venue were empty. Many people who had not grabbed a seat simply stood outside, filling the martial arts performance venue with water.
Looking from a distance, we can see a large area of darkness, with as many as three or four thousand people!
On the central stage, an old man and a young man sat ten feet apart.
In front of both of them were a medicine cauldron, several medicinal materials, Danhuo fire seeds, and spare Xuanjing.
The old man was dressed in rich clothes, and he was mumbling something. His bloodshot old eyes were staring at the young man not far away with a serious look on his face.
The young man is fifteen or sixteen years old, with a calm expression. When he sits cross-legged, the foot that is pressed against the ground is always rubbed a few times deliberately, as if to stir up the dust around his feet and make his riding boots even dirtier...
"In this pill battle, whoever completes the Qi Restoration Pills of higher quality and quantity will be the winner."
"If the levels of Xuandan are the same, the one with the shorter time will win."
"The competition lasts for one hour. After one hour, the team that has not completed the alchemy will be deemed a failure! Now, the alchemy battle officially begins!"
Dean Deng personally came to be the referee of this competition. He is the undisputed best referee in terms of alchemy skills and character.
As soon as Dean Deng finished speaking, Xue Muran sneered at Chen Shen: "Little beast, you can't cheat in front of everyone! This moment is the last moment of your life, enjoy it!"
After saying that, the old man immediately started refining the elixir, and he was moving smoothly and steadily all day long. It could be said that he was racing against time!
After observing Xue Muran's materials for a while, Ma Weishan, another professor of the Alchemy Hall, muttered to himself in confusion: "The auxiliary materials that Old Xue put into the medicine cauldron are actually the Xuan Jing of the first-level Xuan Beast?
Moreover, the Dan Fire only uses three-thirds of the flame, and it doesn’t look like it is refining a high-grade Xuan Dan. It is more like preparing for a mid-grade Qi Restoration Pill.”
"That's right! Lao Xue is really cautious in this move!"
The person who answered the call was also one of the three professors of the Alchemy Hall, the alchemist of the Luo family, named Luo Xiang.
"Be cautious? Lao Luo, what do you mean by this?" Ma Weishan was still a little confused.
Luo Xiang chuckled and explained: "I guess Mr. Xue plans to refine the elixir twice. This first furnace is a middle-grade Qi-returning elixir. He uses the alchemy skills of his mortal nine-star Xuan Dan master to refine the middle-grade elixir.
The failure rate of the medicine is almost zero!”
"There should be plenty of time after the furnace of the middle-grade Qi Restoration Pill is completed. By then, he will start refining the top-grade one."
Hearing this, Ma Weishan suddenly realized: "That's it! I understand! In this way, even if Xue Muran accidentally fails in refining the high-grade Xuan Dan, he will still have a furnace of mid-grade Qi Restoration Pill to protect his capital. This is really thoughtful.
!”
"It's just that...you have to fight with a late-born junior to fight for elixirs, and you have to use all your energy. Even if you win, I'm afraid it won't be honorable!" Ma Weishan was an upright man and couldn't help complaining.
Luo Xiang smiled noncommittally: "Although Lao Xue's victory is not very glorious, at least it can ensure that he will not lose!"
"Look at what Fatty Tang San calls Master Chen. Until now, he is still whistling to catch ants! How can he look like a master who knows how to make alchemy?"
In the arena, Chen Shen really didn't start making elixirs.
This guy was whistling leisurely while smearing the honey he had prepared in advance on his boots, and soon a large number of ants came to visit him.
Even Dean Deng couldn't help but his eyelids twitched when he saw the young man's behavior!
He muttered in his heart: "Chen Shen, Chen Shen, what on earth are you doing? The Dan Dan battle has already started, right?"
"Your opponent is an extremely experienced nine-star mortal level alchemist! In Kowloon City, he is the second-largest figure in the alchemy world, even slightly inferior to Professor Ma and Professor Luo! Fighting with him in an alchemy battle,
You don't race against time to start practicing, but you are whistling and playing with ants, this, this, this, is this ridiculous?"
Finally, Dean Deng couldn't stand it any longer. He turned his head and whispered to Zi Linglong beside him: "Miss Linglong, is there nothing wrong with Chen Shen?"
Zi Linglong nodded without hesitation: "It's definitely no problem! Dean Deng, you can regard his current behavior as giving Xue Muran some trouble."
When Deng Yideng heard this, ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped in his heart: Release the water? A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy is fighting an alchemy with a long-famous Nine-Star Xuan Dan Master. Is he qualified to release the opponent?
Even the dean was shaken, not to mention the other students and teachers.
After seeing the boy's behavior of playing with ants, thousands of people in the audience immediately started talking——
"Did Chen Shen abstain from voting?"
"Looking at this situation, most likely they have given up! Looking for Alchemy Hall's chief professor to fight alchemy. Is this something a normal person would do?"
"I think he is just looking for abuse!"
"I'm not looking for torture, I'm looking for death! When Dean Deng made their Dan Dou contract public before, I saw it clearly: If Chen Shen loses, he can be beaten and killed without any complaints!"
…
There are nearly 4,000 teachers and students watching, but those who are really optimistic about Chen Shen may not be able to use all the ten fingers of one hand!
Twenty minutes later, Xue Muran waved his hand - "Chichi..."
A burst of wind-type profound energy came out of his sleeves, extinguishing the fire and at the same time blowing away the rich aroma of medicine in the cauldron.
Most of the audience who are relatively close to the ring can smell this unique aroma of red pepper.
"It's the Danxiang of the Qi-Reviving Pill! However, the grade seems to be only the middle-grade mortal level."
"You can refine a furnace of middle-grade Xuandan in twenty minutes. Tsk, tsk, you really deserve to be the chief professor of the academy's alchemy hall! It's a hundred years too early for Chen Shen to challenge him!"
"Look! After Professor Xue put the Xuandan into the porcelain bottle, he put a new wave of materials into the furnace. Does he want to make another furnace?"
At this time, a student from the alchemy hall subconsciously exclaimed: "This time, what Professor Xue added to the alchemy furnace was the Xuan Jing of the mid-level mysterious beast, and the flames of the furnace were all replaced by alchemy fire! What is this, Mr. Xue?"
It’s time to refine the high-grade Xuandan!”
Xuan Alchemist has always been a highly regarded and respected profession, especially in this small frontier town.
Now, everyone has the honor to witness an elixir master refining a high-grade mortal elixir, and many people are dancing with excitement!
Looking at Professor Xue's opponent again, that fifteen or sixteen year old boy is still whistling and playing with ants.
The strong contrast between the two left everyone speechless.
Xue Muran glanced at Chen Shen's actions, shook his head disdainfully, and snorted: "Giving up so quickly? Don't! You can try to refine the elixir, even if the final one is a potion of medicine.
The scum is not bad either.”
"Because, Yao Zha, and you, a scumbag, are a good match, hahahaha..."
Xue Muran laughed wildly! It was as if the victory in the Dan Dan battle had already been won by him...
