Yan Fu was surprised. She looked up in fear as she muttered, “Master, why have you changed?”
“I haven't changed, just come back..”.
Taking a deep breath, the Vicious Pill King stared far away with excited eyes.
It was unclear whether he was speaking to himself or his student,
“The mind of an alchemist should be directed only at alchemy.
Success and failure are common. It does not guarantee to cover it!”
Vicious Pill King looked at Yan Fu, “Murid, do you know why I hit you?”
“Because I dared to finish before master and humiliate you ..”
Before Yan Fu could finish, the Vicious Pill King shook his head and laughed,
“Ha-ha-ha, for that little problem? I'm just blaming you for
take my place and almost make me miss the chance to fight a worthy opponent!
I have never had such an opportunity in my entire life.”
Laughing again, the Vicious Pill King ignored his disciple and went to tenth place.
Yan Fu was startled and turned to look at his master.
He felt his master was not like his usual self. His master used to emphasize results above all else. Successful purification is rewarded, while failure, punishment.
Under such strict guidance, he had managed to surpass Liu Yizhen's rank and become one of the top five alchemists in the empire.
Now, his master no longer cared about the results, but had a fair match with the boy.
If that child dared to threaten the place of the Vicious Pill King as the first alchemist in the empire from the start, he would have long since dealt with it.
The dead, even with neat alchemy skills would not be able to challenge him.
Strange, is it because that brat just helped my master?
Yan Fu's heart was filled with questions.
He had no idea that it was just a hero who respected other heroes!
When formidable individuals fight, they might resort to cunning schemes, he said,
dogs eat fighting dogs, but victory is absolute and victory, brilliant.
It's okay if he fails this time. After all, there was still the next round, which Tan Wen Hong wanted to master.
But from the rumors circulating about the Vicious Pill King,
it was impossible for Tan Wen Hong.
Naturally, Tan Wen Hong did not take their words to heart.
He knew that these people could be used, but never relied on.
After all, the way of a sneaky and evil widow has always been a weapon for the weak and a scorn for the strong.
Vicious Pill King felt the same way and now his spirit had been aroused.
He wanted to pit Tan Wen Hong in this round and win cleanly and perfectly ,
thus Tan Wen Hong had no room to deny it.
The battle between these two heavyweights was in the field of alchemy. However, it was also a fight to the death!
In the eastern stands, Huangpu Qingyun looked at Tan Wen Hong, then at the Vicious Pill King, “Say, can Elder Yan win?”
“Of course, second young master!”
Lin Zitian jumped in while giggling, “ Elder Yan lost in the first three rounds but from the third round, ,
the boy used an ancient purification skill that weighed down on the body.
The best were grade-5 pills while Elder Yan was a true grade-7 alchemist. It makes no sense if he loses. ”
“En, I understand!”
Huangpu Qingyun nodded, but then smiled,
“However, Elder Lin, thank you for reminding me. You said the same thing in the last round, though,
risking your head on Elder Lin's victory, and how did it end up?
Lin Zitian cursed in his heart as his smile froze.
When have I ever put my head to people like that old fool? Aren't you the one who sued her?
His only choice was to keep those words to himself and shake his head with a bright smile.
