While Xiao Lin chatted intermittently with those around him, Xiao Yan and several Alchemists from the Xiao Household finally emerged slowly from the passage leading to the contestants' seats.
After a brief moment of shock at his first glimpse of such a magnificent stage, Xiao Yan quickly regained his composure and walked over to his assigned Bluestone Platform.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan also spotted his parents and the others in the VIP stands directly opposite him.
After waving to his grandfather, his parents, and Xun'er, Xiao Yan closed his eyes to settle his mind.
Seeing Xiao Yan's composure, Xiao Lin and the others smiled with satisfaction.
As for the Eldest Miss of the Gu Clan, she waved back at Xiao Yan with some excitement, then resumed her initial ladylike demeanor and silently kept her gaze on him.
Of course, the Eldest Miss of the Gu Clan was hardly the only one watching Xiao Yan!
Since Yun Yun had come, how could Nalan Yanran possibly be absent?
Whether on behalf of the Nalan Family or the Misty Cloud Sect, Nalan Yanran was certain to attend.
She would even have come for Xiao Yan's sake alone...
After all, her fiancé would be taking part in this Alchemist Grand Tournament.
And whenever the gazes of the Eldest Miss of the Gu Clan and Nalan Yanran collided in midair, sparks flew and lightning crackled!
Yun Yun noticed this, but silently pretended she had seen nothing.
In short, quite a few people were watching Xiao Yan in this competition!
Never mind those three women-even Hai Bodong, who had just returned to the Mittel Family, had high hopes for Xiao Yan.
Oh, right. There was also Ya Fei, who had crossed paths with Xiao Yan at some unknown point and had taken a keen interest in him.
