The villa in the drizzle was filled with romantic allure, and while Shen Qiang and the voluptuously seductive Pan iqing in purple were being affectionate inside the villa, the alchemy competition between Shen Qiang and 131 alchemists had reached its final stage in the sports arena.
Compared to the previous lively atmosphere, the sports arena now was incredibly tense.
Five judges were ticulously comparing elixir pills.
At this mont, the sect leaders from various sects of the Cultivation World were whispering behind the podium, as the True Essence Barrier ensured that their words would not be overheard by others.
"It's astonishing, I never thought that Shen Qiang's elixir pills would be so formidable. Initially, when the judges awarded Shen Qiang the title of dicine King, I thought they were only joking, or perhaps deliberately praising him. But now it's clear that this is not the case; Shen Qiang truly possesses this capability."
Jinding Elder from the Ei Sword Sect sighed.
"It wasn't in vain that our Ei Sword Sect ordered Biyue Xiuhua Dan from Shen Qiang. After all, Shen Qiang is the dicine King, and without a doubt, he is the ultimate winner of this Elixir Pills Conference."
Weisheng Zhii, Palace Master of Baihua Palace, smiled proudly upon hearing this: "The fact proves that Elder's previous decision was wise. Now that Shen Qiang has ascended to dicine King status, the price of his elixir pills is bound to rise, benefiting those who previously purchased his pills."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding sect leaders' expressions turned grim.
This was the truth.
Looking at Shen Qiang's elixir pills now, they were undeniably the best. What stood out the most was that each of Shen Qiang's pills was of Divine Grade. Previously, those who bought them might not have realized that behind these pills, beyond their efficacy, there was also the additional value that they were personally refined by the dicine King.
But after this, as Shen Qiang's fa rises, surely in the Cultivation World, no one will remain unaware of Shen Qiang's elixir pills.
In such circumstances, who wouldn't want the best, if they had the slightest pursuit?
And the best elixir pills are Shen Qiang's!
Realizing this, many sect leaders displayed regretful expressions.
"Alas, indeed, one should not follow the herd. Initially, I believed the rumors in the Cultivation World, thinking Shen Qiang was just a boastful fool, so I didn't buy a single pill from Shen Qiang. Now if I want to purchase, I'm afraid it's already difficult to get any."
" too, this just shows how harmful these rumors can be! Fellow cultivators kept yelling that Shen Qiang was inadequate, and I believed them, thinking his elixir pills were just careless embellishnts. Now turns out he's the True God!"
"It's truly damaging. I shouldn't have trusted their words, leading to my sect not having any of Shen Qiang's elixir pills."
Seeing the many sect leaders filled with regret, Bai Shiyi, the head of Cheng Xinyi, and the Xu Family's director of elixir pill purchases exchanged glances and both showed a knowing smile, seemingly reached a tacit understanding.
"Co on, today is the last day of the Elixir Pill Conference; if we place an order now, it should still be possible," Bai Shiyi said with a sly smile.
This remark struck like a wake-up call.
Many sect leaders imdiately made calls, notifying their sect assistants.
"Quickly go to Heshenghe and place an order, buy so of each kind of elixir pill. Yes, yes, I'm giving you a budget of 200 million, use it wisely."
"Imdiately order Shen Qiang's elixir pills, allow a budget overrun of 50%."
"Hurry to the exhibition hall and purchase Shen Qiang's elixir pills, use up all the available budget."
The sect leaders were all unanimously demanding.
But monts later, each was filled with despair, with expressions defeated as if mourning.
"It's too late, Shen Qiang is not accepting orders today! The Heshenghe booth was already dismantled last night."
"So frustrating, you see, how can this Shen Qiang be so unprincipled? The Elixir Pill Conference clearly states three days, three days! Look at him, does he resemble a businessman? This is clearly the last day for wrapping up; how can he suddenly decide not to accept orders anymore?"
"There's no need to think about it. Shen Qiang already secured orders worth billions in the first two days with just these elixir pills enough to indulge for thirty to fifty years—why bother taking more orders? Afraid he might exhaust himself?"
"Absolutely outrageous, but no matter how you see it, he shouldn't stop accepting orders. At least let us wait a bit!"
Watching them beat their chests and stamp their feet with frustration, Bai Shiyi and the Xu Family's director laughed until their eyes crinkled.
In fact, Bai Shiyi and the others understood better than anyone about Shen Qiang not accepting orders on the third day; otherwise, Ye Guyun and Ke Bizhu wouldn't have been helping in the sports arena.
Not only that.
If it were soone else, they likely would have done the sa.
On the first day, the Thirty-two Skillful Hands were eyeing aggressively, not ordering from Shen Qiang, that was understandable.
On the second day, Shen Qiang not only proved himself but also beca the dicine King.
If one were sharp enough then to order imdiately, Shen Qiang would have surely accepted.
By the third day, when Shen Qiang's elixir pills shock the entire Cultivation World, trying to place orders was obviously too late.
After all, those who could offer crucial help during tough tis didn't co, Shen Qiang had no grudges, and after becoming the dicine King, he provided them with a chance to make ands, and they still didn't take it. Now, when the opportunity presents itself, does Shen Qiang need them?
So Shen Qiang had already ordered the booth dismantled last night, and Bai Shiyi and the Xu Family's responsible people had already known about it.
"Saga! Bai Shiyi indeed plays smart!"
Compared to the sect leaders lanting while slapping their thighs, so wise ones already saw through everything.
"I had a feeling when Bai Shiyi kindly reminded others to hurry and place orders, it's because Shen Qiang wouldn't accept any more orders. In such a case, to get Shen Qiang's elixir pills, you'd have to see what Bai Family and Xu Family say."
"Oh, heck, Bai Shiyi is notorious for being ruthless; with Shen Qiang not taking orders, the elixir pills sold by Cheng Xinyi could get astronomically priced!"
"I knew it, whenever Bai Shiyi smiles, there's never good news!"
Though these clever ones saw through everything, they were powerless. After all, Shen Qiang was the dicine King, the leader of Heshenghe; if he said no orders, then certainly no orders would be taken, trying to approach Shen Qiang would likely bring only embarrassnt. So those quick thinkers were imdiately preparing to cozy up to Bai Shiyi.
anwhile, on the judges' seat, the Valley Master Qin Yongquan of dicine King Valley solemnly announced: "The results of comparing the 131 elixir pills are out, unsurprisingly, Shen dicine King wins again effortlessly with Divine Grade elixir pills. Thus, this Dan Fighting concludes with Shen Qiang's grand victory!"
