The Battle Through Heaven
The Second Half is Too Simple
Although many people found it strange that the bamboo hat of the gray-robed youth suddenly disappeared, none of them were suspicious of Hai Bo Dong. At this moment, most of the audience's eyes were basically fixated on the soft face of the gray-robed youth. It seemed like the age of this young man was the youngest in all the seasons of the Meeting of the Alchemists,
The gray-robed youth patted the remaining ice shards on his shoulders. He then raised his head to look at Hai Bo Dong and the others in the VIP seats, revealing a cold smile. Her lips moved a little. By relying on this mouth shape, Fa Ma and the others could clearly identify what he said, "I want a champion spot for this Grand Meeting!"
"How's that? Can you see if he's disguising his appearance? " Finger Fa Ma gently tapped on the guardrail as he asked faintly.
Hai Bo Dong and Jia Lao exchanged glances and immediately shook his head slightly. In a deep voice, he said, "I can't see that he has disguised his appearance …"
"What are you telling me is this guy so young? If that is the case, then I think he has fully explained what is called a true genius. Compared to him, the talents of Liu Ling, Yan Xiao and the others seemed to be very ordinary. " Fa Ma said with a frown.
"Although I couldn't see how she was disguised, her age was clearly not as written in the information .." Hai Bo Dong shook his head and said, "His sensitive reaction to danger did not seem like something that a seventeen year old young man had. Instead, it looked like a soldier who had been on the battlefield for a long time. Moreover, he could hide his abilities and only reveal them now. It was enough to see that his mental strength was incredible. I really have trouble imagining that a seventeen-year-old young man is capable of doing all these things so perfectly. "
"In this world, there are other methods besides changing one's appearance to transform oneself into such that you, as an alchemist, should be clearer than this than I am. Some special medicinal ingredients or medicinal pills. " Jia Lao said in a low voice.
"Indeed there are some unique and rare medicinal pills that can change one's appearance into a young person. But those medicinal pills were all extremely rare and extremely difficult to refine, most likely no one would be able to tell her apart unless she opened her mouth to acknowledge her age. "Fa Ma nodded and voiced her thoughts.
"If any old man were to obtain a medicinal pill that could change his appearance back into a young man, wouldn't he be able to deceive everyone and participate in this Grand Meeting? When that time came ... Who among the younger generation could compete with him? This way, this Big Meeting of yours still has some loopholes. " Hi Bo Dong frowned and said.
"Do you think that kind of medicinal pill is so easy to refine? Moreover, who among the older generation would leave his face and do such a thing. If he was accidentally exposed, wouldn't he really be embarrassed? " Fa Ma helplessly said.
"Yes, there is one below I am now convinced that under this gentle outward appearance, there must be an old soul." Hai Bo Dong extended his hand and raised his chin towards the gray-robed young man.
"What's the point if you're not sure? We can't just base it all on your few words and forcefully throw them out in front of so many people, can we? Since our Great Meeting of Alchemists is known to be open to any alchemist, then naturally it includes alchemists from the Chu Yun Empire. "Fa Ma smiled bitterly and said.
"What are you planning now? If you let someone from the Chu Yun Empire obtain the champion position, the reputation of your association will receive a considerable blow. " Jia Lao furrowed his brows and said.
"What else can we do? We can only choose to continue the grand meeting. If he fumbles and accidentally fails, it will save our minds. Moreover..Yan Xiao and those little people were not ordinary people. What if they beat the old man by chance? " Fa Ma spread his hand and said.
From the looks of the situation, it seems a bit difficult. " Jia Lao shook his head and said.
"That might not be certain .." Hai Bo Dong suddenly opened his mouth and smiled. His gaze turned to Xiao Yan on the open ground and smiled as he said, "Maybe there really be a surprise …"
"Hopefully."
Fa Ma sighed. Even though he spoke in such a manner, his heart did not feel certain. Yan Xiao might be considered the best among the younger generation, but that mysterious gray-robed young man definitely did not belong to the young man.
"We'll see. If it really doesn't allow we can wait until the exam is over and find an opportunity to perform to that person. " Hi Bo Dong patted Fa Ma on the shoulder. He randomly waved his hand and a faint killing intent appeared on his old face.
Fa Ma's turbid eyes narrowed. A moment later, he shook his head and sighed, "Forget it. If this matter is revealed, we, the Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Association, will become very famous in this continent. For us, the price outweighs the benefits! Therefore, we cannot take this risk. "
"As far as you." Hai Bo Dong shrugged his shoulders and did not continue speaking. Taking a few steps back, he sat in his chair and waited for the Grand Meeting to resume.
Jia Lao also patted Fa Ma on the shoulder and retreated to his seat.
"That person is someone from the Chu Yun Empire?" Little Princess's eyes suddenly saw the badge worn on the gray robe on the young man's chest. On that badge, there was a bright sun slowly rising from the horizon. This image was a symbol of the Chu Yun Empire.
The Chu Yun Empire? Hearing this name, Xiao Yan was slightly surprised. The Little Fairy Doctor who was wearing a floating white gown suddenly flashed through her mind. "He seems to have gone to the Chu Yun Empire, right?"
"He is actually someone from the Chu Yun Empire? It would please "Liu Ling was also surprised as she immediately muttered. As a disciple of Pill-King Gu He, he naturally clearly knew the grudge between the Jia Ma Empire and the Chu Yun Empire.
"We can't let him be a champion!" Liu Ling looked at Xiao Yan and the Little Princess as she said in a low voice.
Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders in a nonchalant manner. Since no one was pouring thoughts of hostility towards the Chu Yun Empire into him, he did not have too much conflict or enmity with the Chu Yun Empire. The Little Princess, who was a member of the imperial family, nodded her head seriously.
On the front stage of the VIP seats, Fa Ma slowly exhaled. His turbid eyes carried a chill as he stared at the gray-robed young man on the open ground below. A moment later, a calm voice once again sounded in the square.
"Alright, since everyone has already finished the exam, let's start the second round of the exam Move your finger and press the small red button on the lower left of the stone table."
Hearing the voice beside his ear, Xiao Yan immediately threw the matter about the gray-robed young man to the back of his mind. His finger touched it and then pressed the small red button down.
The moment he pressed the button, the big green table suddenly trembled slightly. The previously protruding machine came out once again pulled. Huge piles of medicinal ingredients were neatly piled up and rolls of medicinal formulas slowly appeared on the clear and slender surface of the table.
"This time, the medicinal formula is orthodox. This is something that our association used all of our manpower and a few months to make. The examination this time will require you all to follow the medicinal formula in order to successfully purify the medicinal pill. The medicinal herb in front of you is enough for all of you to cultivate twice. In other words, you all still have to try twice. Once the medicinal ingredients are used up, it shows your failure … "
"Uh?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan was confused. Immediately, he frowned. "Following the medicinal formula to refine a medicinal pill? A test like this isn't it too easy? Refining like this by following the stage after stage method was clearly much easier than the first round If the Grand Meeting was so wise, how could they conduct such an examination?
Xiao Yan hesitantly shook his head. He took out a scroll of medicinal formula and slowly opened it. After which, he closed his eyes and expanded his Spiritual Strength, gradually scanning the information recorded on the medicinal formula.
As his Spiritual Strength performed a scan, a lot of precise information was quickly stored in Xiao Yan's mind. The various different things that needed to be noticed were also quickly and clearly recorded in Xiao Yan's mind. This is the advantage of the orthodox medicinal formula.
After this information was recorded in Xiao Yan's mind, he could feel that the Spiritual Strength on the scroll that stored the information was quickly disappearing.
"’Pil Walking Wind’, level three medicinal pills. Effect: It can make people who consume it become very sensitive to wind type natural energy for a short time. From here, one could use it to increase his movement speed. "
"This was a medicinal pill that was quite practical the way the alchemist association handed it over to the contestants was truly generous. This formula was something that people could forget about being obtained from the market if one did not have a hundred thousand gold coins. But they really gave it away for free. " Xiao Yan sighed emotionally and shook his head. Xiao Yan was slightly surprised by the effect that was able to increase one's movement speed.
"According to what is written in it, one needs to combine the nine types of medicinal ingredients to perfect the ‘Pil Walking Wind’. Although this was not considered much, it was not a small amount either. "The gaze of Xiao Yan slowly swept across the nine types of medicinal ingredients in front of him as he muttered," This type of drug formula has only reached level three. . There is also a medicinal formula. It shouldn't be too hard to fix it. The exam this time was pretty easy. Don't tell me that they currently intend to let people get through it because they were a little too ruthless before? "
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head. He lifted it up and looked around him only to find that Little Princess, Liu Ling and the others had slightly knitted brows. Clearly, they felt a little surprised by the simplicity of the examination this time around.
"I don't care what the reason is. I have to act first. It would be better if I managed to graduate and save myself from a little trouble. " Xiao Yan muttered softly, He threw the purple-colored Danwan into his mouth and sprayed the Purple Flame into the medicinal cauldron.
In a distant corner, the gray-robed youth looked at the scroll in his hand indifferently. A smile of ridicule was seen at the corner of his mouth. "The cheap trick .. does the Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Association only have this small ability?"
On the stage in front of the VIP seats, Fa Ma stood at a high place and looked at the entire place. He looked at Xiao Yan at the midpoint who had already raised his fire and started to purify. He frowned slightly and softly said: "Little Friend, you should always be careful. This kind of Grand Meeting was nothing like a roadside competition. If you don't pay attention, you'll be knocked out. "
