Chapter 216 The Conference Ends

Xiao Zhen stared closely at the essence of the various colored medicinal liquids in the Tianyan Furnace. With a slight control of his soul power, the essence began to slowly condense into the prototype of a pill.

Xiao Zhen had practiced making Dragon Power Pills several times before, and had succeeded every time, except that the quality of the first few batches was a little insufficient. But at least he had gained experience.

Xiao Zhen is still confident that he can make a perfect Dragon Power Pill. If he performs well, it might even have pill patterns, but the possibility is a little low.

The situation on Gu He's side was a little worse. Maybe it was because of the lack of soul power or cultivation. Under the impact of several different powerful medicinal powers, the pill did not fuse into a perfect small ball, but instead became uneven.

Gu He also gritted his teeth. He was only an eight-star Dou Ling now. To be able to improve his cultivation so much in three years was already enviable and could be considered very fast.

But there were two people who were clearly behind him before, but suddenly rushed to the front. They were Xiao Zhen and Yun Yun.

Yun Yun could still explain it. After all, she was born in the Yunlan Sect, the number one sect in the Jia Ma Empire, which possessed the legendary Gate of Life and Death. It was inevitable that her cultivation level would improve by leaps and bounds.

But the key is Xiao Zhen. This kid's cultivation has increased so much that he has left himself behind in an instant. How can Gu He not be anxious?

Gu He finally exerted all his strength, and a large amount of fighting spirit surged out. The alchemy furnace in front of him became a little shaky, and the whole furnace began to shake constantly.

Xiao Zhen just glanced at it casually, and his eyelids began to twitch. Is it necessary for Gu He to fight so hard? The prize of the competition is a ground-level technique, not Yun Yun, so why make such a big fuss?

In less than an hour, all the contestants had completed their works, and Xiao Zhen was still the first to finish.

The quality of the Dragon Power Pill refined this time is quite good. The surface is smooth and shiny. Just a slight sniff can make people intoxicated by its medicinal fragrance. It's a pity that there is no help from the strange fire, otherwise it would definitely produce pill patterns.

The referee this time was Fa Ma himself, but he was also accompanied by the old man Jia Xingtian.

Looking at the work in front of him, Jia Xingtian couldn't help but comment: "This fourth-grade elixir is not bad. It looks like it should be a healing elixir. The grade has reached the advanced fourth grade!"

Fa Ma also nodded with satisfaction. The maker of this pill was a talented alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire. Before Xiao Zhen became famous, his alchemy skills were second only to Gu He among the younger generation.

Next was the work of the contestant from Izumo Empire. When Fa Ma saw this guy, he instinctively felt disgusted.

The people of the Izumo Empire love to use poison the most. Even the alchemists in their country are all proficient in the use of poison.

In Fa Ma's opinion, the alchemists of the Izumo Empire are not real alchemists at all. They have insulted the identity of alchemists.

The alchemist of the Izumo Empire waved the pill in his hand and said confidently:

"Open your eyes wide and take a good look. This is my masterpiece!"

Fa Ma took a closer look and found that it was a top-grade fourth-grade Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill. The quality of the pill was excellent and in terms of value, it was indeed much better than the previous contestant's.

Fa Ma was also not in a hurry. He wiped his beard and said slowly: "Not bad, young people should not be too arrogant. If you only rely on this pill, you may not be able to win the championship today."

After hearing Fa Ma's words, the alchemist of the Izumo Empire remained unmoved. He was the most talented alchemist in the Izumo Empire in hundreds of years, and he came here today just to slap him in the face.

Moreover, there are two Dou Huangs secretly today who are responsible for protecting the alchemist of the Izumo Empire. That's why he dares to speak rudely and act like he is the boss of heaven, second to earth, and I am the third.

The next three contestants almost all had fourth-grade elixirs, and indeed none of them could compare to the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, which made the alchemist of the Izumo Empire even more proud.

Fa Ma came to the next table, looked at Gu He with sweat on his forehead, and nodded in appreciation.

"Gu He, it seems that you have tried your best. Let me see your finished product!"

Gu He exhaled slowly, and he spread out the pill in his hand. This was a fifth-grade pill, the Qi Xiu Pill, which had an excellent effect on the recovery of Dou Qi. Even a Dou Huang would be very interested in it.

Fa Ma carefully examined the pill in his hand. Apart from a slight dullness on the surface, everything else about the pill was pretty good. It was even better than the healing pill that his apprentice had taken out.

The alchemist of the Izumo Empire couldn't believe it. He was very focused when refining the elixir and didn't pay any attention to other contestants. Who knew that someone could make a fifth-grade elixir? What should he do? Wouldn't his chance of winning be ruined? He would have to slip away soon.

Fa Ma came to the last contestant again and looked at his favorite disciple with satisfaction in his eyes.

Xiao Zhen also smiled slightly, and a yellow pill appeared in his palm, emitting a faint golden light on the surface, and faintly he could hear the sound of a dragon's roar.

The corners of Fa Ma's mouth began to rise, and he set his eyes on Gu He, and smiled gently: "Gu He, come and take a look. I wonder how the fifth-grade elixir in Zhen'er's hand compares to the one you have?"

Gu He just took a look and sighed helplessly. In terms of grade, Qi Xiu Dan and Long Li Dan are almost the same.

But if you compare the two pills, people who know the subject will find that the Qi Xiu Pill in their hand is obviously inferior.

Gu He took a deep breath, nodded respectfully to Xiao Zhen, and said dejectedly: "Brother Xiao Zhen's talent in alchemy is really unmatched. Gu He admits he is inferior to him!"

Gu He is also a proud and arrogant person, and it is not easy to make him say such submissive words.

Xiao Zhen also bowed to Gu He and said awkwardly: "I just took advantage of the furnace. If we talk about level, I am afraid I may not be as good as Brother Gu He!"

Jia Xingtian patted Fa Ma's shoulder and said sourly: "Congratulations on training such a powerful disciple."

Fa Ma just smiled and didn't say anything. At this time, he acted mysterious.

Jia Xingtian couldn't help but curl his lips in his heart when he saw that the old man Fa Ma was pretending.

"Now I declare that the winner of this competition is... Xiao Zhen from the Xiao family!"

For a moment, all the spectators in the field shouted loudly, especially the Xiao family, who shouted the loudest, fearing that others would not know that they and the champion Xiao Zhen were a family.

Fa Ma took out a small notebook and gently handed it to Xiao Zhen.

Xiao Zhen looked at the familiar name of the martial arts technique in the small notebook and put it into his ring without any concern.

Fa Ma smiled lightly and said awkwardly: "I knew you would become the champion, so I took out this volume of skills. Now it seems that you really didn't let me down!"

Xiao Zhen's eyelids twitched. His teacher actually didn't want to pass on this martial art at all, but he wanted to give out a big prize, so he gave this martial art as a make-up.

Fa Ma saw Xiao Zhen's depressed look and couldn't help but joked:

"Don't be unhappy, kid. I spent more than 20 million to buy you a high-end alchemy furnace. This championship is your repayment to me!"

Xiao Zhen thought about it and it seemed to be the case. If Fa Ma had not given him the Tianyan Furnace but used it as a prize, it should have attracted a large number of alchemists.

Jia Xingtian looked at Xiao Zhen strangely from the side. He already had a conspiracy in his mind. As long as it succeeded, maybe he could get this kid onto the royal warship.

The alchemist from the Izumo Empire noticed that everyone around him had focused their attention on Xiao Zhen, so he just greeted the two Douhuang powerhouses secretly and left quietly.
