"Bang!"
With the muffled sound of a palm slapping against the stone platform, the young man in gray robe turned livid, pretending to ignore the mocking glances from around him. He flipped his palm, and eight streams of powder or viscous liquid of different colors flew out from the cauldron, and were finally poured into the neatly arranged jade bottles.
Seeing that the young man in gray robe ignored their gazes and concentrated on refining the elixir, Liu Ling, Little Princess Yaoyue also looked away one after another. After carefully testing the prescription, they also discovered the problems in the prescription, and then began to refine the elixir again at the same time.
A few minutes later, a scent of elixir slowly spread out from the alchemy cauldron in front of the young man in gray robe.
Pull the fire, open the furnace, collect the elixir, and bottle it all in one go.
The second young man in gray robe who completed the alchemy turned toward the jade bottle containing the elixir and turned to look in the direction of Little Doctor Immortal. His face was full of reluctance, but he did not dare to exaggerate.
As if aware of the young man's gaze, Little Doctor Immortal turned his head and looked in the direction of his gaze, and immediately saw the young man in gray robe staring at him with an angry expression.
Little Doctor Immortal smiled and looked back indifferently.
Looking at Little Doctor Immortal's actions with a livid face, the young man in gray robe only felt that he was despised. He snorted coldly and wriggled his lips, "Don't be complacent. Let's compete again in the last round! Then, I won't hold anything back!"
As time passed slowly, the deafening cheers in the square gradually weakened. After such a high degree of excitement, the audience just turned their eyes to the alchemists who were still busy in the square. Of course, at the same time, many girls in the stands were looking at the young alchemists in the venue. Even the faces of the young men who had successfully refined the elixir suddenly looked handsome.
Half an hour later, the green light in front of Little Princess and Liu Ling was the first to light up. The two of them knocked the elixir into the jade bottle, looked at each other, and both breathed a sigh of relief.
After the two of them, green lights began to flash one after another, but more of them were still red lights. The square was too huge, and the remaining alchemists did not notice anything unusual about the prescription. To their surprise, they all ended in failure.
Furthermore, even apart from the above reasons, after all, this "Windwalk Pill" is a third-grade elixir. Therefore, not only some alchemists around the second-grade level, only two or three people got through by chance, but even some contestants who had just entered the third-grade level for the first time also failed due to carelessness.
Under these two somewhat harsh conditions, the number of contestants in the conference is being eliminated at a rapid speed. The number of people who originally numbered in the thousands may be less than three hundred now, and looking at this, it seems that the numbers are still being refreshed.
When the hourglass hanging on the wall completely poured down, there were only nearly a hundred people left in the spacious square, while the others had been completely swept out by these two rounds.
After the assessment time arrived, the next step was another routine test. In this test, with the skills of a fifth-grade alchemist, the one with the best elixir effect was naturally Little Doctor Immortal, followed by the gray-robed boy, followed by Little Princess, Liu Ling and other third-grade alchemists who were not weak in strength.
After the test was completed, the sky gradually darkened, and a crescent moon slowly emerged from the sky, illuminating the brightly lit imperial capital.
"Everyone, today's conference will end here. Please have a good night's rest. Tomorrow is the last round of our conference, and it is also an important round that determines the championship. Therefore, please do not fail to attend due to various things, otherwise, you will regret it for life." Fama laughed loudly.
Hearing Fama announce that today's assessment was over, everyone in the square breathed a long sigh of relief. After these two rounds of assessment, it was really exhausting.
Putting Medicine Cauldron back into Storage Ring, Little Doctor Immortal turned to look towards the audience. After seeing Xiao Yan and Qing Lin waving to him, a beautiful and gentle smile suddenly bloomed on his little face.
After packing her things, Little Doctor Immortal immediately jumped towards the exit of the square. However, what Little Doctor Immortal didn't notice was that after she left, a cold gaze kept staring at her back.
"Just wait, you young fifth-grade alchemist, I'll show you your true colors tomorrow!"
The young man in gray robe looked at Little Doctor Immortal's disappearing back with hatred, then he flashed and disappeared from the place.
"Well done!"
When Little Doctor Immortal walked out of the square and was looking around, he heard a familiar voice coming from one side.
With joy on his face, Little Doctor Immortal turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, just in time to see Xiao Yan, Qing Lin, and Hai Bodong walking towards him.
"Little Doctor Immortal sister is so amazing!"
Little Qing Lin, who was holding Xiao Yan's arm, looked at Little Doctor Immortal with admiration.
"Xiao Yan, Little Qing Lin, Elder Hai." Little Doctor Immortal walked over with a smile on his face, a slight blush on his face, "Just good luck."
Regarding Little Doctor Immortal's modesty, Xiao Yan was noncommittal and smiled slightly. Just when he was about to say something, he happened to see Nalan Yanran pulling Ya Fei and Yaoyue, and glanced at Xiao Yan then smiled at Little Doctor Immortal and his group and said, "Yaoyue Princess said, I will have a drink with Liu Ling and Little Princess for you tonight, I don't know."
The beauty of the three girls Nalan Yanran is ranked among the top beauties in the entire imperial capital. In addition, Little Doctor Immortal is as gentle as a fairy, and Little Qing Lin is a delicious little loli. The five of them stand together, their graceful figures complementing each other. They are really more beautiful than flowers. Therefore, at the entrance of the square, many people are looking directly at them.
Upon hearing Nalan Yanran's invitation, Little Doctor Immortal subconsciously turned his head and looked at Xiao Yan beside him.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan raised his hand and rubbed Little Doctor Immortal's little head, "Today is your home court, so you can decide for yourself."
Hearing what Xiao Yan said, Little Doctor Immortal immediately looked at Nalan Yanran and apologized. "I'm sorry, Yaoyue Princess, I am really too tired today, and there is still a final assessment tomorrow, so I am afraid I won't find time to go to the banquet. Princess, the little lady understands my heart, and I will say goodbye."
Listening to what Little Doctor Immortal said, Xiao Yan bowed his hands to Nalan Yanran and Yaoyue Princess, without waiting for their reply, he turned around and walked into the street with Little Doctor Immortal and Little Qing Lin. Then, under the stunned eyes of the three rejected women, he squeezed into the crowd and disappeared.
"Little girl, you have to work harder~" Hai Bodong said something pointedly to Ya Fei before disappearing.
Under the night sky, several shadows swiftly shuttled on top of the houses. In some spacious gaps between the houses, there were wide streets. Although it was already late at night, the streets were still crowded with people. Fortunately, the figures in mid-air moved very fast. Even if someone looked up occasionally, they could only see two fleeting black lines.
They are Fama, Hai Bodong, and Jia Xingtian.
It lasted for a few minutes and then stopped amid the waving gesture of Fama in front.
"That guy lives here." Fama landed on the roof without making any noise.
"Hey, this guy is actually on guard." Elder Jia suddenly sneered. At this time, a little distance in front of his feet, an extremely thin black line was extending out. On both ends of the black line, there were two tiny black bells hanging.
"It's a small trick." With a wave of his hand, a fierce force quietly melted through the air, and the two small black bells were shaken into nothingness without making even the slightest sound.
"Let me do it." Hai Bodong smiled, and his palms as dry as dead wood slowly reached out of his sleeves. There was a faint white mist lingering between the palms. The cold air made the surrounding temperature drop a lot in an instant.
Pressing down gently with both palms, the white mist covered the tiles, and finally spread quickly, completely covering the roof in the blink of an eye.
"Ice Mirror!" Looking at the covering white mist, Hai Bodong shouted softly. The mist condensed quickly and finally turned into thin ice, covering the roof.
"Now!" He shouted softly again. The next moment, the white ice layer started to become illusive. At a certain moment, a spacious room was printed on the thin ice, as if a movie was playing, and all the objects in it were clearly imprinted on the ice layer.
"Use cold air to invade the house, then condense into ice fragments that are difficult to detect, and finally project them out through the reflection of the ice fragments."
"What a brilliant ice control technique." Jia Xingtian praised. "As expected of the former Ice Emperor."
"It's just a little trick, with this little effect, it's not worth mentioning." He smiled and waved his hands. Although he said this, Hai Bodong did not hide the pride on his face.
While they were bragging, they didn't notice at all that on the roof not far away, a dark figure was leaning against the eaves, watching all this with interest.
"Tsk, tsk, it turns out these old guys are causing trouble..."
Xiao Yan looked like he was watching a good show and was about to take out the melon seeds.
Not long after, a loud shout was heard from a room not far away, "Who's up there?"
"Do it." The next moment, another old voice came.
"Bang!"
"Fama, I know it's you! I, Yan Li, dare to come to you Jia Ma Imperial Capital, so I'm not afraid that you will kill me, but after killing me, you, Alchemist Guild, have to finish playing!"
"Fama, it is indeed you!"
"..."
After watching all the good shows, Xiao Yan had no intention of taking action. Instead, he disappeared silently without taking away a single cloud.
The next day, when it was just getting dark, this bustling city began to operate in an orderly manner like a huge machine that was turned on. The flow of people walking through the streets in the city injected power into this huge machine.
Needless to say, the most crowded and lively place in the city today is the huge Royal Plaza. After people in the audience spread the word about yesterday's game, more and more people have been attracted by the thrilling alchemy competition. Therefore, although it is still early in the day, outside the Royal Plaza, there is already a sea of people, and the black heads spread to the end of the sight.
As time goes by, a ray of morning light breaks through the clouds and shines on the huge city. When the sun rises, the closed Royal Plaza slowly opens the door. Suddenly, the dark crowd outside pours in like a tide.
When Little Doctor Immortal and Xiao Yan arrived outside the square, they all looked at the long line of people at the door and were stunned. Then they shook their heads helplessly. They did not expect that today's audience would be even crazier than yesterday.
"Come with me." Hai Bodong glanced around, then turned around and walked to the other side of the square. He followed Hai Bodong for a distance, and the noisy voice gradually became louder. The pressure was reduced a lot, and after turning a corner, Xiao Yan discovered that there was also a side door behind the square, but outside this side door, hundreds of fully armed soldiers were blocking the door.
Ignoring these soldiers, Hai Bodong led Xiao Yan, Little Doctor Immortal, and Little Qing Lin and walked in through the gate as if there was no one else around. The soldiers seemed to know their identities, because no one came out to stop them.
After walking a certain distance through the marching gate, the line of sight suddenly opened up. Xiao Yan looked up and found that Liu Ling, Little Princess and others had already arrived. Next to them, there were many contestants who had passed yesterday's two rounds of assessments. At this time, these young people were laughing and chatting with each other.
"Little Doctor Immortal, go."
Seeing this, Xiao Yan turned his head and said to Little Doctor Immortal beside him.
Little Doctor Immortal nodded, and then walked in the direction of Little Princess.
After seeing Little Doctor Immortal and Little Princess integrated into the conversation, Xiao Yan looked at Hai Bodong.
"Let's wait a moment. When Fama's group of old guys come down, we'll go to the VIP stand to watch." While Hai Bodong was talking, Fama was waiting for the senior guild officials. As he was walking out slowly, Xiao Yan looked over. Fama smiled kindly at him, and then walked down with a group of people behind him, greeting Xiao Yan and others.
As Fama and others came to sit on the VIP table, not long after, Astonishing Heaven's earth-shaking cheers were like a tide, attacking their ears in waves. Even Xiao Yan was not very surprised.
"The VIP desk is the VIP desk, and this viewing is just different."
While talking to himself, Xiao Yan saw several figures slowly walking out from the entrance to the square below.
In the auditorium, when some sharp-eyed people saw Little Doctor Immortal and others appearing, it suddenly became noisy, with countless people whispering to each other.
"Hey, look at that. That's the person with the best score yesterday. He's also very young. He's a young fifth-grade alchemist!"
"So beautiful~ Not only is she beautiful, but her talent as an alchemist is even more amazing. It's really enviable."
"Yeah."
