"Let's gamble!"

The man in the purple- Black Robe agreed without hesitation.

As the youngest Alchemist in Hundred Rivers City, he was confident he could defeat this guy.

That's Treasure Armor capable of withstanding a single blow from God of Heaven and Earth the gods.

For an Alchemist, such a life-saving item is extremely tempting.

Although people have great respect for Alchemist, there are also some reckless fools who will risk their lives to disgust you.

With Spiritual Qi depleted and resources scarce in the world, having a suitable treasure is a luxury.

I never expected that this dark-skinned, skinny boy would possess such a precious treasure!

"But I need to know your true identity. Maybe you're some old monster in disguise!"

He wasn't stupid; he knew this guy possessed such a valuable treasure, especially considering his strange movements just now.

This skinny, dark-skinned young man might have a complicated background.

"No problem!"

Ye Jing smiled and nodded, then took out a document from his pocket and tossed it to Qu Zhou!

This is his identity information and customs clearance information.

After Qu Zhou checked it and confirmed that there were no problems, he returned it to Ye Jing.

Now he was certain that this guy was just a hothead, with powerful family connections and likely some powerful protectors.

In broad daylight, with so many people watching, even if the other side has a powerful background, one still has to be cautious.

Besides.

He is no ordinary person either.

In this Hundred Rivers City, even a stomp of his foot can cause a stir.

"Alright! Let's get started, but we'll compete outside and have everyone act as referees!"

He urged excitedly.

"Okay, no problem!" Ye Jing nodded calmly.

This suited him perfectly; he could have easily found the Pavilion Master of the Pill Pavilion and shown him his astonishing alchemy skills.

But that would ruin one's reputation.

He wanted to earn enough Spirit Stone to fill almost a Spirit Vein in a very short time.

Then you must completely establish your reputation and let all the "clients" come to you.

"We agree!"

The two guards exchanged a glance and immediately nodded.

If Qu Zhou has agreed, what else would they be afraid to agree to?

The commotion at the entrance naturally attracted the attention of many passersby.

There was much discussion.

What happened here?

"I don't know, it seems someone wants to compete with Alchemist Qu in alchemy!"

"What? Alchemist Qu is Fifth-grade Pill Master! He's the youngest Fifth-grade Pill Master in Hundred Rivers City! The only ones more skilled than him are the Elder and the Pavilion Master the Pill Pavilion!"

"Who is this skinny, dark-skinned kid? Is he from out of town? Daring to challenge Alchemist Qu? He's overestimating himself!"

"This skinny, dark-skinned boy is truly courting death, daring to challenge Alchemist Qu to a pill-refining contest! Doesn't he know that Alchemist Qu's pill-refining skills are among the best in our Hundred Rivers City?"

"This is going to be good! I really want to see how this reckless, skinny kid gets taught a lesson by Alchemist Qu!"

Qiuyue's pretty face puffed up with anger as she listened to what the passersby were saying.

"What are you saying? My young master is very powerful."

Qiuyue couldn't bear to hear her young master say that.

"Where did this wild girl come from?"

"Do you, as our servant, have the right to speak?"

"Overestimating one's abilities is simply overestimating one's abilities, am I wrong to say that?"

The words of passersby are never kind.

"You, you all..." Qiuyue became even more anxious.

She's not into verbal battles.

"Alright, it's okay, they won't be able to speak for long!"

Suddenly, her shoulder was pressed down, and a gentle voice sounded; it was Young Master Ye Jing.

"Young Master!" Qiuyue's face showed anxiety.

"It's alright, just watch your young master's performance." Ye Jing smiled slightly, looking at the increasing number of passersby, feeling that it was about time.

Soon.

Someone then delivered the relevant materials for the competition to Ye Jing and Qu Zhou.

More and more people gathered to watch.

Even Glow Pill Pavilion, many Elder came to watch.

In front of Ye Jing and Qu Zhou, two tables were set up, covered with all kinds of medicinal herbs.

The two were to refine a fifth-grade elixir, the Heavenly Spirit Pill.

It is a medicinal pill with excellent healing effects.

Ye Jing remained calm and composed, taking what he needed.

Qu Zhou inspected all the medicinal materials again and again before he could confidently begin the refining process.

He was Fifth-grade Pill Master, so refining fifth-grade pills was a piece of cake for him, and could even be considered a waste of his talent.

But Ye Jing was different; he was still an unknown young man, refining a fifth-grade pill for the first time.

Let's see how he makes a fool of himself.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ye Jing began to methodically refine the elixir.

His technique was skillful, as if he had refined it countless times before; the whole process was smooth and effortless.

Qu Zhou looked at Ye Jing's alchemy techniques, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

He had originally thought Ye Jing was just an unknown nobody, but he never expected his alchemy skills to be so outstanding.

The surrounding audience was also stunned. They originally thought Ye Jing was just there to cause trouble, but they didn't expect his alchemy skills to be even better than Qu Zhou's.

Time passed second by second.

A full half hour later.

The two were gradually coming to an end with their alchemy process.

Passersby stared at the two men's pills and began to whisper amongst themselves, even though they didn't recognize Ye Jing.

However, Ye Jing's methods amazed everyone.

"Who is this skinny, dark-skinned young man? His alchemy skills are truly outstanding!"

"Yes, I've never seen him before either. Could he be Alchemist from out of town?"

"His alchemy skills are truly remarkable; I have never seen anyone so proficient in alchemy."

"What good is a skilled refining technique? It doesn't guarantee the quality of the finished product."

"This guy will definitely be trampled underfoot by Alchemist Qu!"

At this moment, Qu Zhou looked at Ye Jing, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

He felt that Ye Jing's alchemy techniques were very familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.

"Where did you learn your alchemy techniques?" Qu Zhou asked.

Ye Jing smiled slightly, not answering his question, but instead looking at the surrounding audience.

He knew he had achieved his goal.

Now he can relax and wait for business to come to him.

With a loud bang.

The Pill Furnace in front of Qu Zhou emitted a faint light, while its fragrance filled the air.

"The Qi Gathering Pill is complete!"

"It's Danxia! The pills that Alchemist Qu refined this time are very likely to be High-grade Pill!"

"Don't try to take it from me, I've reserved this batch of pills."

"Why should I? I want it too!"

The surrounding area instantly erupted in noise, with everyone staring at Qu Zhou in astonishment.

High-grade Spirit Pill!

That's very difficult to do.

Each one sells for a very high price.

Qu Zhou's lips curled into a smile. He had performed exceptionally well this time; wouldn't he be able to defeat Ye Jing now?

The two guards were also visibly excited.

They're going to win this bet!

Although Ye Jing could refine pills, he was still a sucker.

"Mine is done too."

Ye Jing's calm voice rang out.

Suddenly, another Pill Furnace emitted a dazzling light that was blinding!
