Chapter 1109: Chapter 1110: Zhang Shaojin
Although so could not see, the powerful Elders could extend their strength, pierce through the smoke, and see the face of that disciple.
When they saw the face of the disciple who produced the red smoke, all the Elders smiled and looked at the Great Elder, sincerely congratulating him, “Great Elder, you have a keen eye indeed, to have accepted such an outstanding disciple in alchemy.”
This disciple was a new disciple taken under the Great Elder a few years ago. At that ti, he was found to have extraordinary bloodlines and remarkable bones; moreover, his comprehension ability in alchemy was unusual, making him excellent in martial arts and alchemical materials.
Several years have passed, and this examination has indeed been verified.
The Great Elder only smiled without speaking, displaying humility, though he was secretly overjoyed.
This fact proved that a disciple not favored by the Valley Master could also possess excellent potential.
Red smoke rose on the square, causing significant pressure on the disciples present; because they were competitors with the disciple who produced the red smoke, and there would only be one champion. If that disciple refined the high-grade elixir first, they would have no chance of winning.
Among the competing disciples, many challenged high-grade elixirs, but none produced red smoke, indicating that the quality of the final pills was poor, likely mixed with many impurities.
Only pure high-grade elixirs can produce colored Pill Clouds.
Blind challenges do not yield good outcos, so many disciples tasted bitterness.
They were like the disciples who forcefully challenged high-grade in the previous round, suffering injuries from backlash, so directly hurt by exploding Pill Furnaces.
Smoke filled the square, and upon hearing explosions, the Divinity Transformation Realm disciples watching couldn’t help sweating for their junior brothers.
If they were severely injured, their cultivation careers might end.
“Ah! Hopefully, it’s nothing serious!”
This is an unavoidable approach. To win the championship and prove one’s extraordinary talents, one must fight; fortune favors the brave.
Moreover, this is also the philosophy instilled in them by the Elders.
If they don’t dare to take this step, how can they beco strong in the future?
As one disciple after another failed, as one disciple after another completed their refinent, the smoke in the square grew thinner.
When the smoke cleared, everyone finally saw the face of the disciple who produced the red smoke. It turned out to be the little junior brother hailed as the master brother successor—Zhang Shaojin.
Zhang Shaojin possessed this talent, so many disciples were relieved.
Staring at this youthful boy, Lin Yifan smiled appreciatively, “Not bad, not bad, he indeed has so skill.”
“Only so?” Xiaofang asked.
“No, he’s quite good. At his age, I hadn’t achieved such accomplishnts.” Lin Yifan answered humbly.
In fact, he didn’t consider the other important at all; he simply found soone relatively decent after watching the competition for so long, hence his rare smile and willingness to praise.
“Good thing you know. Junior Brother Zhang is reputed to be the master brother successor, his strength, amongst the younger generation, is unparalleled.” Xiaofang briefly described Zhang Shaojin’s prowess, full of care for her little junior brother.
“Haha! Impressive! Impressive!”
Lin Yifan wore a bitter expression, unwilling to say more.
“Yifan, if you hadn’t received your Master’s lifelong teachings, do you have the ability to defeat him in the sa realm?” Xiaofang asked curiously.
In her heart, the Master’s generous teachings made Lin Yifan; if Junior Brother Zhang Shaojin received the sa treatnt, his achievents would likely not be inferior to Lin Yifan.
“How could I possibly have this strength? Everything I have is given by my Master, whom I deeply love.” Lin Yifan replied very dramatically.
“Seems like you still have a conscience. Learn to be grateful in the future, understood?” Xiaofang reminded.
The dicine Saint is the person she respects most in life, soone she may never betray.
“Understood, understood!”
That’s what he said, but in reality, Lin Yifan was very wary of the dicine Saint.
For now, the dicine Saint treats him well, but the future is uncertain; thus, whether to be grateful depends on the dicine Saint’s future attitude and approach.
On the Alchemy Square, there were still several disciples competing with Zhang Shaojin; however, as ti passed, they all beca physically exhausted and fell.
So managed to refine but didn’t produce colored smoke from start to finish, thus believing they were hopeless.
When all competing disciples finished their refinents, Zhang Shaojin’s elixir also approached completion.
He cautiously managed the final stage, neither rushed nor fretful.
In elixir refinent, the closer to the end, the more one must remain calm; for it determines whether the pill can be successfully refined, or how many impurities are mixed into the pill.
After a while, “Boom!” Zhang Shaojin’s Pill Furnace in front suddenly had a small explosion, releasing a fiery red aura.
Despite the explosion, everyone knew this was the power released during the final synthesis of the elixir, not a real explosion.
Upon completion, Zhang Shaojin collected his essence and breathed deeply.
“Clap, clap, clap!”
At that mont, the square erupted in applause, celebrating his success in advancing to a Four-Star Alchemist and refining a Fourth-Grade pill.
Although Zhang Shaojin completed the refinent smoothly, the outco still needed to be evaluated. If there was no pill in the furnace or a low-quality pill, he might not win the championship.
After the competition ends, specific Elders inspect the disciples’ refines outcos.
After thorough screening, only one disciple remained competing with Zhang Shaojin for the champion title.
Amid the crowd’s anticipation, the inspecting Elder opened Zhang Shaojin’s Pill Furnace.
Imdiately, a fragrant aroma wafted out.
The inspecting Elder can determine, by this fragrance, that there is indeed a pill inside.
Reaching inside, they indeed felt a red pill.
After carefully observing it before their eyes, they unanimously agreed that Zhang Shaojin’s refined pill was better than that disciple’s.
After reinspection by all the Elders, without dissent, they announced that the champion of the Breaking Mortal Realm disciple alchemy tournant was Zhang Shaojin.
Upon hearing this result, the disciple competing with Zhang Shaojin for the champion beca disheartened.
Although he anticipated this outco, the final extinguishing of hope inevitably left him sowhat disappointed.
After the awards ceremony concluded, the crowd dispersed, going back for als.
The Divinity Transformation Realm disciple competition was to take place in the afternoon, so there’s no need to stay on the Alchemy Square sunbathing.
While dining, Lin Yifan was inford about qualifying for the first-round elimination.
He needed to compete in an additional round to face the Five-Star Alchemist in the final contest, all due to lacking an alchemy level.
