"Hey, old man who cheated his way in over there. Want to pit your pill against mine?"
Xiao Yan tossed the Spirit-Breaking Pill up and down in his hand, watching Yan Li with a teasing look as he asked.
Clearly, refining this pill at the lower end of Tier 5 had posed little difficulty for Xiao Yan.
After all, this was merely the level he had displayed using a single heavenly flame!
In other words, Xiao Yan had already crushed every alchemist present while still holding back!
"I..."
Deep down, Yan Li actually wanted to say yes.
But smelling the fragrance wafting from the Spirit-Breaking Pill in Xiao Yan's hand, Yan Li knew that saying so would only invite humiliation.
Unlike now, in the original work, there had still been room for debate between the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill Xiao Yan refined and the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill.
The Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill was a somewhat unusual Tier 4 pill, with different grades of quality.
If the finished pill had only one or two rings of pill patterns, it would certainly be slightly inferior to the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill.
But once three rings appeared, it became slightly superior to the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill.
In the end, Xiao Yan had successfully refined a Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill with three rings of pill patterns, only narrowly defeating Yan Li to claim the tournament championship.
That was why, back then, even after Xiao Yan refined the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill, Yan Li had still felt confident enough to compare his Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill against it before knowing how many rings it had.
In this life, however, there was clearly no need for that.
A Tier 5 pill was a Tier 5 pill, after all. There was no need to compare
