Chapter 399 The Conspiracy of the Miraculous Medicine Pavilion
In the main hall of the Alchemist Guild in the same city.
Pale and the others were sitting in the room.
"We found it!" Galo walked into the hall with a nervous expression.
"How is it? Who is this person?" Pale asked anxiously.
Galo looked around and deliberately lowered his voice, saying, "This Ma Qianli is from the Qiyao Pavilion."
"Bang!" Pale-faced man slammed his hand on the table in anger. "I knew it! They really had a conspiracy!"
Leng Yun sat to one side and glanced at Grand Tutor Pang beside him.
By this time, everyone had figured out the secret.
It turns out that Ma Qianli was sent by the Qiyao Pavilion, and his purpose was not simply to cause trouble.
He deliberately provoked Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi, and then made such a bet. Because of the two girls' identities, the bet was naturally valid.
If Ma Qianli really wins the championship, then the Miraculous Medicine Pavilion can rightfully destroy the Alchemist Guild!
"I didn't expect that the Miracle Medicine Pavilion would finally make its move!" Pale sighed.
Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi stood behind Cang Bai with their heads down, knowing they had gotten into trouble.
"What do we do now? Should we break the contract?" Cang Cuicui said.
"Hmph, we've already agreed in front of the whole world, how could we possibly break our promise!" Pale was somewhat angry.
Cang Cuicui looked aggrieved: "At worst, we'll just beat him, what's there to be afraid of!"
"How dare you say another word? It's all because of you!" Pale said angrily. "It's all because we've spoiled you too much and pampered you rotten that things have turned out this way!"
The two girls were so frightened that they lowered their heads and dared not speak again.
Grand Tutor Pang smiled and said, "Alright, alright, don't blame them for this. We all know the ambitions of the Miraculous Medicine Pavilion, and it will deal with you sooner or later."
Galo nodded: "Yes, the most important thing now is how to get through this hurdle."
"How about we rig the competition and prevent Ma Qianli from advancing to the next round?" Grand Tutor Pang suggested.
Pale shook his head: "Impossible. Although we are the referees of the competition, the final outcome is determined by the monsters. The audience can see the result at a glance. We can't control it."
“Yes, this also means the reputation of our Alchemist Guild in Fanglai Kingdom,” said an old steward.
Suddenly, Galo made a beheading gesture: "How about—we—"
“No, if we kill Ma Qianli, we’ll give others more ammunition. The reputation of the Alchemist Guild will be ruined, and the Miraculous Medicine Pavilion will have an even greater chance,” Pale said, frowning.
Grand Tutor Pang said, "It seems that the only way now is to defeat him in the arena."
“Yes, but the people sent by the Miraculous Medicine Pavilion are probably not that simple.” Pale said, glaring at Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi.
Galo sighed, "Alas, it seems we can only leave it to fate now."
After saying that, Galo and Pale exchanged a glance.
Then, both of their gazes turned to Leng Yun at the same time. Cang Bai seemed to want to say something, but ultimately remained silent.
Only Grand Tutor Pang looked at Leng Yun with satisfaction, his heart filled with trust for him.
……
On the third day, the third round of the competition began, and the top four would be selected from the ten participants.
Because there were only a few people, all ten of them were on one large arena instead of being divided into many smaller arenas, and the arena was surrounded by spectators.
Alchemists who make it to the third round are all quite skilled, so today's competition is sure to be exciting.
Furthermore, yesterday's bet added an extra layer of tension to the competition.
Ten alchemists lined up in a row, and with the ringing of a bell, the competition began.
This round involved refining third-grade pills. Not long after, two second-grade alchemists suffered backlash from forcibly refining the pills and were forced to withdraw from the competition due to serious injuries.
Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi remained the focus of attention. They were both third-grade alchemists. Although refining third-grade pills was somewhat difficult, they could succeed as long as they focused.
At the very end of the line was Ma Qianli in gray robes.
Ma Qianli's refining of grade three pills seemed to have no difficulty. Based on this alone, Cang Bai and the others could already sense that Ma Qianli was more capable than Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi.
Standing next to Ma Qianli was Leng Yun.
At this moment, Leng Yun, just like before, casually tossed the pills into the alchemy furnace, his style clearly different from the other nine alchemists.
Pale and Galo didn't look at Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi, but instead stared at Leng Yun.
In the first two rounds of the competition, they thought Leng Yun was someone who didn't know anything about alchemy, so this time they wanted to take a closer look at the secrets behind it.
"President, it seems it's not what we imagined." Galo was increasingly surprised as he watched Leng Yun refine medicine.
Pale nodded: "Yes, although Leng Yun's alchemy seems to be completely haphazard, the essence he refines is superior to others in both speed and quality!"
"But this method of alchemy is truly unbelievable!" Gara said. "Could he really be a super genius?"
A glimmer of hope rekindled in Pale's heart: "Perhaps this time, our Alchemist Guild can still be saved!"
The further they looked, the more ridiculous they realized how limited their knowledge was. Leng Yun's alchemy technique, though seemingly casual, was actually producing pills that were gradually taking shape.
The pills refined by Leng Yun were even more rounded than those refined by Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi.
"See? I told you long ago, this kid's alchemy skills are amazing."
"This time I believe it. It seems this kid is a dark horse."
The audience below were all drawn to Leng Yun and began to discuss him animatedly.
After three hours, the match ended.
Leng Yun, Ma Qianli, Cang Cuicui, and Li Jiaqi tied for first place, as their pills had all reached the limit of the third grade.
Everyone else is eliminated.
Cang Cuicui and Li Jiaqi never expected that Leng Yun, whom they had always looked down upon, was actually so powerful. Only after witnessing Leng Yun refining pills with their own eyes today did they believe that there were such alchemy techniques in this world.
The final match will be held tomorrow, and the order of the matches will be determined by a draw.
Ma Qianli drew the 'Challenger' position, which means he has to defeat three opponents—Cang Cuicui, Li Jiaqi, and Leng Yun—in order to win the championship.
As the crowd gradually left, they continued their enthusiastic discussion about tomorrow's final.
Cang Cuicui walked up to Ma Qianli and said, "I already know who you are. Don't worry, your scheme will definitely fail. I will defeat you tomorrow!"
Li Jiaqi also came over: "Ma Qianli, don't be so arrogant. I'll still be here tomorrow. You definitely won't win the championship."
Today's result boosted their confidence considerably. They felt that if they were more focused, they could defeat Ma Qianli.
Ma Qianli snorted coldly, ignoring the two girls, and instead glanced at Leng Yun beside him.
Their eyes met, their gazes filled with hostility...
