"Hmm?"
Mo Wangchen’s words made An Xu frown.
He glanced over and hadn’t noticed before that Mo Wangchen was a young man not much different in age from himself.
"You’re also here to participate in this alchemy competition?"
Upon seeing Mo Wangchen’s appearance, An Xu couldn’t help but squint his eyes, sowhat surprised at heart.
Because the primary condition for participating in this competition was having Holy Rank skill.
Looking across the entire Ming Land, among the younger generation, besides himself, could there really be others who have achieved Holy Rank skill?
"What else?"
Mo Wangchen glanced at An Xu and spoke calmly. He had been queuing here for over half an hour, and he hadn’t entered yet. How could he let others cut in line and get ahead?
"Who are you? Do you not recognize our Young Master?"
Before An Xu could speak, one of the two elders from the An family who accompanied him frowned and spoke to Mo Wangchen with a harsh tone.
"So what if I recognize him? Do I have any obligation to give way to him? Ridiculous." The other party was rude, and Mo Wangchen naturally wouldn’t be polite in return. No matter what, he had been queuing here peacefully for a long ti, and yet soone wanted to cut in line to enter before him. How could he possibly ignore it?
"Who is this person, daring not to give face to An Xu?"
All around, other alchemists still in line looked surprised, their gazes all falling on Mo Wangchen.
It must be noted that, despite An Xu’s young age, he had already achieved a Holy Rank second grade Alchemy Dao skill and was known as the number one genius of the younger generation in the Ming Land’s Alchemy Dao Realm.
With his potential, he might beco like Elder Dan with Holy Rank sixth-grade skill in the near future, a giant figure in the Ming Land’s Alchemy Dao Realm.
Clearly, opposing such a character was not a wise move.
"By the looks of his age, he seems not much different from An Xu, and he’s also participating in this alchemy competition, which ans... this person also possesses Holy Rank skill?" soone remarked in surprise.
"Interesting, there are actually two young people with Holy Rank skill participating in this competition?"
"What is his na, and why have I never seen him before?" Many were curious.
"Kid, do you know what you’re doing by standing up to our Young Master?"
Amidst the hushed discussions of the crowd, the two elders behind An Xu squinted their eyes, a cold light flashing in their gaze.
They were experts of the An family, accompanying An Xu on this trip to ensure his safety.
With An Xu’s Alchemy Dao skill, he could stand on equal footing with many of the older generation’s Alchemy Dao Masters in the entire Ming Land. Wherever he went, people treated him with respect and courtesy. When had anyone like Mo Wangchen dared not to extend courtesy to the Young Master?
"I’m very clear about what I’m doing, but as for you, you ca late, shouldn’t you just queue up properly? You’re trying to cut in line, and when I don’t let you, it’s sohow my fault?"
Mo Wangchen maintained a calm deanor from start to finish. Others feared An Xu’s potential and gave him face, but for himself, what was An Xu’s so-called Holy Rank second-grade skill to him?
"This is reckless!"
Upon hearing Mo Wangchen’s words, the cold gaze of the two elders behind An Xu flashed anew as they seed to be ready to act directly.
However, before they stepped forward, An Xu stopped them with a gesture, looked at Mo Wangchen, and said indifferently, "If I’m not mistaken, your na should be Mo Wangchen, right?"
"You registered a day before . I heard Elder Dan ntion your na once. In this competition, apart from , you are the only young person entering with Holy Rank skill."
"He is Mo Wangchen?"
Upon hearing An Xu’s words, many around were montarily stunned as if they had rembered sothing. "Indeed, a few days ago, I heard about him. Elder Dan personally tested him, and it was said this person has a Holy Rank first-grade peak skill and could break through to second grade at any ti."
"Indeed a rare Alchemy Dao prodigy. Unfortunately, he hasn’t broken through to second grade, so there’s still a gap with An Xu. Now he’s not giving An Xu face, which isn’t a smart move." Many shook their heads quietly.
"According to Elder Dan, you ca from the Land of Desolate, not from Ming Land?" An Xu looked at Mo Wangchen and suddenly sneered coldly.
"So what if I’m not from Ming Land?" Mo Wangchen squinted his eyes.
"Heh, just a reminder. Going out and traveling far, even if you have great reliance in the Land of Desolate, it’s not so easy to extend your reach into Ming Land."
"So you an to use your status as the Young Master of an ancient family to oppress ?" Mo Wangchen sneered.
Even holy lands like the Qianyuan Sect did not daunt him. If An Xu truly wanted to stand against him, he wouldn’t mind visiting the An family himself.
"Gentlen, the Tower Master has already instructed that both of you may enter the venue first without waiting in line. Please follow , I will lead you two young masters inside."
Just as the atmosphere was growing more tense, suddenly, from within the Pill Tower, a servant ran out hurriedly.
The servant wiped the sweat from his forehead, naturally aware that these two talents of the Alchemy Dao Realm seed on the brink of conflict. If he hadn’t appeared and intervened in ti, it might have been inevitable that sothing would occur later.
"Young Master, this isn’t the place to resolve things. After the competition ends..."
The two elders beside An Xu spoke quietly, their eyes glancing at Mo Wangchen with a fleeting cold light.
After all, this was in front of the Pill Tower, and even though they belonged to an ancient family, they dared not act rashly here. They could only wait until after the competition to deal with this reckless kid.
"Very well."
An Xu nodded, snorting coldly, then casually withdrew his gaze from Mo Wangchen.
With the servant leading, Mo Wangchen, An Xu, and the others smoothly entered the venue.
This was the third level of the Pill Tower, spacious within, with hundreds gathered, creating a noisy atmosphere.
"Master Lin is here as well; we haven’t seen each other in many years, have we?"
"Haha, such a grand event, it would be a pity not to attend. We haven’t seen each other in so many years, I assu Master Zeng’s skill has reached Holy Rank third grade?"
"Fortunate to have broken through."
In the third level of the Pill Tower, many people were conversing with each other, most of them having notable backgrounds, all renowned Holy Rank alchemists, respected by many.
"Kid, that An Xu was so arrogant just now. If I were the Emperor, I would have taken him down long ago, yet you managed to endure it."
Within the Holy Seal, the lazy voice of the Jade Emperor echoed in Mo Wangchen’s ear.
"Better fewer affairs than more. Besides, he didn’t truly act against . After this competition, I will head to the Land of Desolate. The An family, after all, is one of the ancient families and might have ancient gods overseeing it. During this crucial mont, avoiding conflict is obviously the best option." Mo Wangchen said.
