Chapter 331: Chapter 332: News about Ye Wuchen (Part 4)
“Alright, the competition begins, and you only have 15 minutes, anyone who has not completed the refinent by then will be deed to have failed!”
Elder Shen sat down and spoke in an indifferent tone.
Whoosh!
Mu Ruyue suddenly waved her palm, and a fla shot toward the bottom of the Pill Furnace. Then, an herb she held was brushed lightly by a wisp of spiritual power before being tossed into the Pill Furnace.
Her heart slowly cald, and her gaze stayed tightly locked on the Pill Furnace before her.
“Elder Shen, is she the talent you spoke of?” Chou Yu frowned, seeing the ordinary herbs she had taken out, wondering what her strength was really like.
Elder Shen felt sowhat uneasy; even though Ruyue’s talent was strong, it didn’t necessarily an she presently had great proficiency, and she might have been buried in obscurity outside.
Therefore, he also didn’t know what kind of strength Mu Ruyue currently possessed…
Mu Ruyue released her spiritual power, enveloping the herbs in the Pill Furnace that had turned into a pool of liquid under the flas, and then she picked up another herb and placed it inside.
Ti ticked by, second by second, and the other candidates began to refine elixirs as well, creating a tense atmosphere throughout the examination hall.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud explosion echoed through the sky, and everyone couldn’t help but lift their eyes to look…
The girl stood before the shards of a shattered Pill Furnace, her expression indifferent. She slightly furrowed her brow, a gleam of light crossing her cold eyes.
“Ha,” Zang Lin sneered with a disdainful look sweeping over the girl’s stunning face, “The furnace exploded so quickly, you’re… nothing special after all.”
The crowd all revealed mocking smiles, looking down on the girl in white.
Those who were here to take the exam were sowhat capable disciples; causing an explosion of the Pill Furnace so quickly showed this woman’s level was simply too poor, really questioning why Hall Master Mo Li let her participate in the exam.
It was simply a public embarrassnt!
If it were them, they probably wouldn’t have the face to stay here any longer.
“Xiao Yue!” Yao Yunqing leapt to her feet, giving Zang Qingxue next to her a fierce glare, her worried gaze turning to Mu Ruyue.
Only Zi Qianjing remained silent, but a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes as they swept across Mo Li.
“It seems so people indeed need a lesson.”
Zi Qianjing hooked the corner of his mouth lightly, his lazy smile so charming, yet his eyes were filled with coldness.
“Mr. Chou Senior, have you noticed?” Elder Shen’s eyes darkened, “This girl’s Alchemy Furnace has been tampered with, soone has ddled with it, causing the explosion.”
Chou Yu didn’t speak but nodded slightly, acknowledging that whoever had ddled right in front of them was quite bold.
After a mont of silence, Chou Yu turned to Elder Shen and asked, “What should we do next?”
“What to do?” Elder Shen let out a bitter laugh, “Each Alchemy Furnace is precisely counted; there are no spares here. Going to fetch one now clearly won’t leave enough ti.”
At this point, his eyes reflected a sharpness, as if warning that if he found out who frad the girl, then…
After pondering for a mont, Elder Shen looked up and announced, “Ladies and gentlen, due to an unexpected change of events, the alchemy exam will be temporarily halted. We will continue once I’ve had a new Alchemy Furnace delivered here.”
Upon hearing this, a barrage of noisy protests erupted from the crowd, all dissatisfied with Elder Shen’s decision.
The alchemy competition had already begun; how could it be stopped? If they were to pause now, wouldn’t all their efforts be in vain? Was it worth it for just one person?
