The Competition Begins

Time slowly passed, and before long, the ten contestants who had entered the finals arrived one after another.

After each contestant found their own seat, they closed their eyes to rest and adjusted their minds to their optimal state.

More and more spectators gathered around, and the clamor grew louder and louder. The area surrounding the plaza had practically turned into a marketplace.

Dong...

At last, as the resounding bell rang out, silence finally descended around the plaza. All the spectators stopped talking and looked excitedly toward the ten people in the center.

Of them, Long Xuan, Heaven-Burning Ancestor, and Heaven-Deceiving Ancestor drew the most attention.

The vast number of Long Family Gu Masters among the spectators all focused their gazes on Long Xuan. Their fists clenched and their faces were tense; clearly, every Long Family Gu Master had already regarded him as the hope of their entire clan.

The bell echoed through the crowd for a long time. Once it faded away, Feng Tiancheng finally stood up, swept his gaze around, and said in a deep voice:

"Today is the final round of the Western Region Alchemy Competition. After layer upon layer of selection, only ten people successfully entered the finals. These ten can practically be called the most gifted genius alchemists in the entire Western Region."

"After this Alchemy Competition ends, you will be worthy of the title of the Western Region's Ten Great Alchemy Geniuses. Compared to the rewards for the top ten of the Alchemy Competition, I believe this title is what matters most to you."

Feng Tiancheng looked at the ten geniuses and smiled.

Sure enough, the geniuses on the plaza revealed excited expressions upon hearing this. Long Yuyao, Feng Shuang, and Wang Wu all proudly lifted their heads, their faces full of pride.
