However, Xiao Yan was completely unaware of everything that was happening on the field; he had now entered a mysterious state.

Xiao Yan had a complete grasp of everything in the Medicine Cauldron, including the temperature of the flames and the state of the pill's formation; not a single change could escape his perception.

At this moment, Elder Yao looked at Xiao Yan with satisfaction. He had not been crushed by the heavy burden. Instead, he had entered this rare state due to the immense pressure. Now, Xiao Yan's soul power was no weaker than that of an ordinary Fifth Grade Alchemist, so refining pills was no problem.

"What a terrifying yet lucky kid!" Fa Ma also noticed Xiao Yan's predicament and couldn't help but sigh.

"President Fa Ma, could you please explain?"

As for knowledge about Alchemist, Xiao Zhan could only say it was a long story. He was so busy cultivating and handling family affairs that he had no idea how to understand such things.

"This is a stroke of luck for this little guy. He has entered a mysterious state, and his Soul Strength has surged. It seems there are no problems now," Fa Ma explained.

At the same time, he felt a pang of envy, as he had only encountered such an opportunity a handful of times in his lifetime.

"Alright, now we should go out and announce the results." Fa Ma then smiled, he could be said to be quite satisfied with this Alchemist Grand Meeting.

With two Fifth Grade Alchemists, this year's competition far surpasses that of the one led by Pill King Gu He. Although one bad apple spoiled the show, the overall excellence outweighs the bad!

When Fa Ma and the others reappeared before everyone, the Alchemist Grand Meeting had already come to an end.

Xiao Yan also completed the process of Pill Collection.

"The results of this Alchemist Grand Meeting will be judged based on the grade and effects of the pills concocted by each Alchemist," Fa Ma announced.

"And this time, two people have refined Fifth Grade Pill."

"So, the champion of this Alchemist Grand Meeting is..."

Just as Fa Ma was about to continue speaking, an untimely voice rang out, "I disagree!"

Everyone looked over and saw that it was none other than Yan Li.

At this point, Yan Li knew he had failed, but he just couldn't bear to see others succeed.

With this thought in mind, Yan Li stepped forward, pointed at Xiao Yan, and said, "This guy clearly exceeded the time limit. According to the rules, he should be disqualified from the competition."

Xiao Yan's expression was not good. If he were simply inferior in skill, it would be one thing, but now this had actually happened.

Yan Li's reckless actions angered Elder Yao. "Little Yanzi, it's alright. After the Alchemist Grand Meeting ends, I'll go with you to take care of him."

"Not even ashes were left!"

The other Alchemist also looked at Xiao Yan with some regret, even Liu Ling and the little princess. They all admired Xiao Yan for being able to refine Fifth Grade Pill.

Such a genius, disqualified for failing the competition, thus losing his chance to compete for the championship, is truly...

Hey!

"Wait!"

However, just when everyone thought that this Alchemist Grand Meeting would end with the victory of "Qiu Shan", Xiao Wu Yue stepped forward.

"I want to compete with him." Xiao Wu Yue looked at Xiao Yan with some excitement.

"If his pills are of higher quality than mine, then the championship of this tournament will be his."

Huh? Everyone was shocked. Could there really be such an honest person? Even a championship that was within their grasp had to go through so many twists and turns?

However, Yan Li still jumped in to stir things up, "No, we must disqualify Yan Xiao from the competition..."

"Get out of here!"

Xiao Wu Yue glared at him directly, unleashing the aura of a Dou Emperor.

In an instant, Yan Li was only at the Dou Ling level, was sent flying dozens of meters away, crashing heavily into the wall and creating a crater with a diameter of two meters.

"Shut up!" Xiao Wu Yue snorted coldly.

The entire venue fell into dead silence because of Xiao Wu Yue's outburst.

Many people felt their mouths dry and kept swallowing, filled with shock.

"You... you must be joking!" someone murmured.

At this moment, regardless of status or strength, everyone had only one thought—this is a dream!

A Fifth Grade Alchemist is not yet thirty years old is already astonishing enough, but you are telling me that he is also a Dou Huang expert?

"Teacher?" Xiao Yan called out to Elder Yao cautiously in his mind.

The latter understood his meaning, and with a hint of helplessness in his voice, he said, "That's right, he is indeed a Dou Emperor!"

Where did these monsters from the Jia Ma Empire come from?

"Hiss!" Xiao Yan was greatly shocked. This was terrifying!

Fa Ma and the others were also quite taken aback by this sudden accident, but they quickly came to their senses. Knowing the strength of the Xiao Clan, they were obviously very accepting of this scene.

He coughed lightly a few times, signaling everyone to come to their senses. Even so, the lingering panic in his eyes was still impossible to hide.

"Now I will announce the supplementary rules for this Alchemist Grand Meeting," Fa Ma said in a loud voice.

Additional rules? Everyone was completely confused.

"As an unprecedented event in this Alchemist Grand Meeting, two Alchemists have successfully refined Fifth Grade Pill. Out of respect, we will extend their time by one hour!"

Upon hearing this, the entire audience cheered!

The onlookers present were extremely satisfied with this.

After all, anyone could see Xiao Yan's ability and talent. It's such a shame that such a genius would fall at this stage!

Xiao Yan smiled with satisfaction; at least he still had a chance.

"To ensure the fairness of the competition, we will invite many highly respected Alchemist to evaluate the pills you have refined."

"Please wait a moment."

Fa Ma's decision was made on short notice. Fifth Grade Alchemist are extremely rare in the Jia Ma Empire, so this opportunity was used to give many Alchemist a chance to observe Fifth Grade Pill.

As for Yan Li, he was completely ignored by everyone.

Before long, a large group of more than ten people, consisting of Elder of the Alchemist Guild and representatives of free Alchemist, came down in a grand procession, their faces revealing barely suppressed excitement.

They only glanced at the other people's pills before putting them down, and then headed straight for the two Fifth Grade Pills.

Almost on each side, Xiao Yan and Xiao Wu Yue were surrounded by people. The Alchemist, who were usually highly respected and aloof, were no different from ordinary people at this moment.

"Let me see!"

"Get out of the way, I'll do it!"

A group of old men were scrambling for the pills, their eyes red with anger. Xiao Yan was actually pushed out of the way, looking speechless.

Because of the strength Xiao Wu Yue had just displayed, the others were more polite and less exaggerated, but they were clearly still quite excited.

After nearly half an hour, all the pills were inspected under the expectant gazes of everyone.

Everyone returned to the platform and reported the situation to Fa Ma, but as they listened... the latter's brows furrowed.

Then, under everyone's puzzled gaze, he returned to the room on the second floor.

"Teacher, what's going on?" Xiao Yan asked, puzzled.

"Hehe," the Elder Yao chuckled, "What do you think?"

Before Xiao Yan could react, Elder Yao began to explain:

"The Recovery Pill and the Rainbow Essence Pill are almost the same grade. Although your Exotic Fire is better than that Alchemist, he is obviously of a higher level, more experienced, and more skilled than you."

"Moreover, the Recovery Pill can repair injuries, while the Rainbow Essence Pill can replenish the consumption of Dou Qi, so there is not much difference in their effects."

"Overall, the pills you two refine are almost identical."

"Those old guys are having a tough time!"

After some time, Fa Ma emerged, his voice amplified by his Dou Qi, carrying across every corner of the plaza.

"I now officially announce the results of the match."
