Free Web NovelChapter 2055: Chapter 2055: What Exactly Are You Trying to Do?!
"Guild leader, how can you trust this guy!"
Guan Shao said urgently.
"This is my decision, no need to say more."
Mu Yunbai waved his hand and said.
In his view, Guan Shao going up was simply to make up the numbers, with no chance of defeating Nanxun from Juhai Guild.
As for Jun Heng, that was even harder to imagine.
As for Su Chen, he didn’t know much about him, but perhaps there was a sliver of possibility, although that was slim too!
But since they’re all likely to lose, may as well take a gamble!
Although Guan Shao felt indignant, Mu Yunbai had made his decision, and he had no choice.
Su Chen nodded, said nothing, and stood up to go on stage.
Watching him walk onto the stage, the Tianhe Guild still felt apprehensive, the key being the uncertainty in their hearts!
Even Elder Xi, who had the highest regard for Su Chen, felt the same because, in Elder Xi’s eyes, Su Chen only had high proficiency in artifact refining!
No one knew about his talent in elixirs!
But having come this far, all they could do was watch...
...
The audience was a bit stupefied!
In previous competitions among the three guilds, it was always elders including the guild leaders competing, but this time they all unanimously sent out young people!
It’s a different view indeed!
The crowd became interested, thinking it would be nice to see the younger generation perform!
"I heard you had a bit of conflict with my fellow disciples a couple of days ago?"
Jun Heng glanced at Su Chen and said faintly.
Hearing this, the people from Tianhe Guild were stunned!
What?!
Su Chen had a conflict with Zijin Guild’s people a couple of days ago?!
That’s not a good thing!
"Youyou, what’s going on?"
Elder Xi asked hurriedly.
Since arriving in Mao Ling City these past two days, Su Chen had only gone out once with her.
Xi Youyou then recounted what happened on the street that day.
After hearing it, the people from Tianhe Guild were shocked, this young master Su, with merely Supreme Realm cultivation, managed to defeat five Sixth Turn Pure Origin Realm disciples from Zijin Guild!
It’s unbelievable!
If Xi Youyou hadn’t said it herself, they definitely wouldn’t have believed it!
No wonder Xi Youyou’s attitude towards him seemed to change suddenly, it was because of this incident!
"What do you think?"
On stage, Su Chen smirked and said.
"I have no opinion, just hope in such an occasion you don’t lose too embarrassingly."
Jun Heng said calmly, exuding strong confidence!
Of course, he had the qualifications for that!
"The first elixir competition officially begins."
The elder responsible for hosting called out.
As soon as the words fell, Jun Heng and Nanxun each took out an alchemy cauldron!
Seeing the alchemy cauldrons in their hands, those with keen perception gasped immediately!
Nanxun’s alchemy cauldron was a High Grade Holy Artifact, while Jun Heng’s alchemy furnace was even more remarkable, it was a Taoist Artifact!
Mu Yunbai’s eyes fluctuated intensely, because he knew those two alchemy furnaces were treasures of their respective guilds!
"Elder Qiu, lend your alchemy furnace to Su Chen for a bit."
He instructed.
Considering whether Su Chen had an alchemy furnace was questionable, even if he had one, its grade surely couldn’t compare to theirs.
Elder Qiu, the highest-level pill alchemist in Tianhe Guild, naturally possessed the best alchemy furnace.
Originally, he was supposed to compete this round, but some unexpected events changed that.
Upon hearing the words, Elder Qiu took out a small alchemy furnace from his storage ring, although its grade was slightly inferior to theirs’, it was almost up to Middle Grade Holy Artifact level!
Fighting for Tianhe Guild, he naturally had nothing he wouldn’t sacrifice!
He worried whether that kid truly had a chance?
"I’ll take it to him."
Xi Youyou volunteered, grabbing it and swiftly heading on stage.
"Su Chen, this is Elder Qiu’s treasure."
Xi Youyou handed the alchemy furnace to Su Chen and said.
"I don’t need it, return it to Elder Qiu."
Su Chen said casually.
Once those words were spoken, everyone was stunned!
What does this mean?!
He refused?!
Could this kid have a better alchemy furnace than this Middle Grade Holy Artifact?!
But, how is that possible?!
Standing beside him, Jun Heng and Nanxun also cast surprised glances his way, what is this guy up to?!
Though filled with curiosity, they didn’t pursue it much further, because the most important thing for them now was alchemy!
The two alchemy furnaces almost simultaneously appeared in front of them, a finger pointed, and suddenly a flame surged forth.
"True Fire! It’s actually True Fire!"
Seeing the flame shooting from Jun Heng’s finger, some people exclaimed immediately!
How precious True Fire is, they didn’t expect Jun Heng had mastered True Fire!
Nearby, Nanxun felt a heaviness in his heart, originally having a bit of intent to compete, but upon seeing this True Fire, he knew it was impossible!
Feeling the crowd’s astonishment, Jun Heng’s face showed pride!
Of course, with his current ability, he couldn’t have subdued the True Fire alone, it was subdued by the guild leader personally and then given to him!
Soon, whether Jun Heng or Nanxun, both seriously started refining elixirs, placing herbs into the alchemy furnaces one by one.
Whether the technique, sequence, or heat control, all aspects were mastered with extraordinary precision, winning the audience’s admiration!
Especially Jun Heng, every move even carried an aesthetic quality, as if he wasn’t refining elixirs, but crafting an artwork!
And in the eyes of those who understood, they knew the intricacies and challenges involved!
Not easy!
The guild leaders from Juhai Guild and Mu Yunbai from Tianhe Guild felt a heavy burden in their hearts seeing this!
It seemed Jun Heng’s level of alchemy was not inferior to the top expert of Zijin Guild, even aided by the True Fire, it was a level higher!
This posed a huge pressure for Juhai Guild and Tianhe Guild!
After being suppressed for so many years, could they really accept it?!
Probably not!
Turning their gaze to Su Chen, everyone felt baffled!
Because he stood there doing nothing, like a spectator watching the other two refine elixirs!
The crowd thought to themselves:
Please!
Get your identity straight, you’re a contestant too!
At this moment, in everyone’s eyes, Su Chen appeared like a clown seeking attention!
"What on earth is this guy doing?"
People from Tianhe were already showing a hint of anger on their faces!
This guy embarrassing himself isn’t the issue, the key is he represents their Tianhe Guild now!
"I told you, what skills could this kid possibly have."
Guan Shao muttered, hinting at dissatisfaction with Mu Yunbai’s decision to let Su Chen compete.
Mu Yunbai of course heard him, but didn’t respond, he could understand Guan Shao’s feelings.
Although what he cared about now is what exactly Su Chen was up to?!
