Upon hearing the dicine King Valley Master's words, the assembly of dignitaries on the stage couldn't help but tense up, particularly Cheng Xinyi, the family head Bai Shiyi, who was visibly nervous. After all, Shen Qiang was his relative, and if Shen Qiang, who has risen to prominence, stumbles publicly, it would be difficult to help him back up.
Another who imdiately turned pale was the Baihua Palace Master, Weisheng Zhii. As Shen Qiang's partner, she always hopes for his success and fa. Hearing the dicine King Valley Master say that Shen Qiang only has a thirty percent chance of winning, her expression instantly darkened.
"Shen Qiang, the Shen dicine King, refines Elixir Pills, all of which are of Divine Grade. Although his sect is hidden from the world, it has deep foundations and absolutely cannot lose."
Upon hearing this, everyone present nodded in agreent but then shook their heads in succession.
"The Palace Master is right; soone who can teach a disciple like Shen Qiang undoubtedly has extraordinary knowledge in dicine and alchemy, incomparable to ordinary people. Saying their foundation is deep is expected. However, tis have changed. Alchemists now constantly co up with new dicines, so no one can master all Elixir Pills like before."
"True. Judging from Shen Qiang's use of provocation, he seems very confident. Moreover, if refining a specific Elixir Pill is required, I also believe Shen Qiang would surely win. However, according to the rules, Shen Qiang must refine the challenger-specific Elixir Pills and then compare. In this scenario, the chances can't be said to be zero, but I truly feel ten percent chance is too high."
"An idiot can't beco an Alchemist. If it weren't for such uncertain factors, no one would compete in Dan Fighting against Shen Qiang, even if he promised rewards. After all, the loser must go to Heshenghe for ten years of hard labor without paynt. Those three thousand six hundred fifty days are essentially hell."
Hearing this, Yu Xinghuo, Bai Shiyi, Weisheng Zhii, Ji Liangchuan could only wear increasingly grim expressions, while Pan Zheng, who should have been happy, now had a complex expression inexplicably and focused his sight on Shen Qiang, who was speaking to soone with a tank-like figure.
"How's the situation? Pan Zheng and Yun Lan, are they good to you?"
Looking at the inquiry from Shen Qiang, the purple-clad person, happy and shy, glanced at Pan Zheng and then settled her gaze on Shen Qiang, saying slightly shyly: "Well, they treat very well, my brother too, but if they ask you about so personal matters, don't take it seriously."
Shen Qiang was baffled by this.
"Personal matters?"
Seeing Shen Qiang full of question marks, the purple-clad person's face flushed instantly, then she coquettishly said: "Just those things between you and , um, work-related matters, just don't talk nonsense at that ti."
Instantly, Shen Qiang's heart trembled. Looking at the flushed and nervous purple-clad person, he suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't speak carelessly. I've given you shares of the Datong River Beijing store; you are my person."
At that mont, the purple-clad person's face turned as red as a cloth, and she said, "Stop kidding. You gave that to because I'm the restaurant manager; that's my salary. How can you be so unreasonable!"
Shen Qiang laughed with his eyes, looking at the purple-clad person and said: "I'm just joking, why are you so tense?"
Upon hearing that, the purple-clad person imdiately frowned, turned her head in annoyance, and remained silent, her expression clearly saying, gone too far, don't speak to anymore!
Seeing this reaction, Shen Qiang laughed, then shook his wrist, taking out a Tiless Beauty Pill and presenting it to her, saying softly, "This is the Tiless Beauty Pill. Once consud, not only does one's beauty last forever, it stimulates human genetic beauty factors to the utmost. The Closed Moon Sha Flower Pills sold in Heshenghe are the failures produced during this pill's refinent."
Seeing the purple-clad person, who seed to be intrigued, Shen Qiang smiled slightly and said, "These pills are not for sale; I previously gave them only to Qin Yurou, Weisheng Zhii, Bai Jiao, Xu Nan, Ke Bizhu, and now I give this one to you."
The purple-clad person, slightly red-faced, pretended to be displeased, saying, "Offering such expensive pills without explanation? I dare not accept."
Looking at her happiness she didn't acknowledge, suddenly Shen Qiang burst into laughter, saying, "Oh, didn't I make it clear enough? I only give these pills to my own people, to outsiders—I wouldn't give them even if begged."
"Don't understand." Pretended stubbornness showing a smile at the corners, yet against the feelings, she interrupted.
Shen Qiang laughed, reached out, and held her white wrist. Then, amidst her shocked and shy gaze, he placed the Tiless Beauty Pill in her hand, saying, "Swallow it, and you'll be my own, my girlfriend."
The purple-clad person's face turned red to her neck, her heart pounding as she tested, "Can I refuse?"
Shen Qiang laughed, "No, because this is a king's order!"
In that instant, the purple-clad person's gaze beca beautifully shy, then she muttered a response, gripping the Tiless Beauty Pill tightly, her eyes darted around shyly as if guilty, frightened of being discovered. Upon turning, she saw the stunning fairy Qin Yurou on the second floor, smiling at her.
Her face imdiately flushed to her neck, her words were forgotten in an instant since she was startled like a timid rabbit, her body trembling slightly, anxious and bewildered.
Seeing her like this, Shen Qiang laughed with a squint.
anwhile, from the sports hall's second floor, Qin Yurou also laughed with a squint.
"The purple-clad girl is so adorable. I once thought she, being a restaurant manager and a super-strong Dao Fruit Stage cultivator, would be very calm, decisive, and steady handling emotional matters. Yet, it seems she's just like you!"
Upon hearing this, the petite maiden, A Bi, beside Qin Yurou, was surprised and turned her head to look at Qin Yurou, then burst into laughter: "Young Master, you're speaking about yourself. I am extrely frank, not reserved because I know withholding results in lost chances."
With a slight blush, Qin Yurou jokingly scolded, "I said it's you, so it's you."
The petite maiden, A Bi, felt helpless at once and turned her gaze to the sports hall, where the registration of Alchemists was almost complete, saying, "Alright, you said it's , then it's . Let's not talk about this anymore. I still look forward to seeing Shen Qiang teach these greedy folks a lesson. But with so many people, how long will this Dan Fighting last!"
