The first person to finish his forging was a 20+ year old guy with long blonde hair and captivating eyes, with his robe one could easily tell that he wasn't a minor in terms of family background and one could tell from his actions that he was a real deal in alchemy.
The beautiful MC let out a smile beneath her mask, it was as though she knew this guy before, but what the others don't know is this two are actually twin.
While everyone was cheering his victory, a large shadow covered the whole place, the people looked up into the sky and saw the lower view of a dragon which everyone was quite familiar with, the dragon called rocky that the young master of the capital city mayor.
"Wow, it's young master Jordan."
"Have you heard, they said he was looking for someone, from the look of it that someone has wronged him in some ways, I wonder who the hell that guy is and what sort of guts he has to trigger the anger of the mayor family."
Liam was listening to the teaching from the heavenly music monarch when the shadow suddenly appeared, he looked into the sky and saw the dude riding on the dragon, he was no other than the dude who has been searching for him all this while.
Jordan looked down and both of their gaze jammed with each other, it immediately caused a spark in their eyes as they spot shot out imaginary flames into the eyes of each other.
Liam was the first to relieve his killing intent, the bastard called Jordan will not be able to act as he wanted in public not to forget that Liam was a part of them alchemy guild whom they cherished very much.
Meanwhile, just now Jordan was shocked at the killing intent that Liam gave out just now, he was young and his eyes was already able to give out such amount of killing intent that even rocky had to let out a snort of disbelief.
"It seems this young dude already know of his fate, maybe he is cursed as well and I'm the course of his curse." He had his own thought, Rocky flew him to the stage for VIP guest.
Other VIP started waving at him, they were higher up and official in the empire so he could not act nonchalantly among them, thus he had to reciprocate their greeting in the most polite way.
As he sat down and watch Liam forge, the voice in his head suddenly started misbehaving most times he let out an evil laughter and mocked Jordan for being so weak that he has to take permission from nobodies to end his mystery.
Nevertheless, he was able to subdue the voice of the curse with his own will, since it was only strong at night it was no big deal for him to suppress it.
The guild master of the alchemy guild noticed his change of expression and the leaking of killing intent, his old yet powerful eyes furrowed as he observed the young man closely.
'That energy is definitely not a normal one. kid this days, getting their hands into evil things just to get powerful.' He sighed.
Meanwhile, Liam was done with his pill but he came at number 15, luckily that was a pass but when his pill was displayed to the public. the strong aroma made some ladies and even guys with yin attribute to gain a quick enlightenment, thus Liam was immediately considered to be at the top.
His victory was okay but it got the likes of Konad, Zonad and even Jordan irritated.
Konad was lucky, he finished immediately after Liam was done and immediately took the 16th position meaning that he survived just by luck and nothing else.
To him, it was a big disgrace but when he saw the corpse of two contestants carried out of the arena he changed his mind immediately accepting his score.
Apart from two that died after inhaling the poisonous aroma, there was also five of them who got injured after the cauldron exploded.
Those guys were immediately disqualified but they received pills to treat their wounds which was much of a relief considering that they would have been disqualified without anything and then they would also have to go out their and hunt for pills to heal their injuries.
"Congratulations to the first 16, the next one will be a trail of quality, we have been instructed to be really fast so we will be getting into that without a break, different ingredients will be given for different pill, you are instructed to forge a pill higher than master grade, any thing Lower than that is immediate disqualification and also the persons who are able to get it right will be qualified for the last and final round'' She announced the details of the second round and once again a lot of beauties came into the stage from the crowd with veils covering their faces as they placed the ingredients into the wooden stricture beside each alchemist.
The simps among the crowd could not help but be carried away by the body of the ladies who walked into the stage, their delicate skin and curvy shapes made their dragons to grow stubborn rising up and refusing to fall unless they journeyed into those flower caves.
Liam shut his eyes for sometime, Konad has already started forging his own.
After opening his eyes, Liam then decided that he was going for the grandmaster grade qi pill, it was a waste of time just showing off his abilities.
According to the rules, what matters is the quality of the pill and it's purity, he have mastered the qi pill because it's most basic and he could forge at least ten of them at once with an average purity of at least 98. so why waste time on other pills.
Konad did not have the same field of view as Liam, all he wanted was a good reputation and a good relationship from his father.
He decided that he was going for the lord grade blood cleansing pill, he scanned through the ingredients, checking if the list of ingredients in his head was here, luckily it was and he immediately kicked into forging.
Before everyone could go halfway, the handsome dude earlier has already finished his own, it was tested and confirmed to have a purity of 88%.
"Considering the grade and rarity of the pill, it's not a joke to say that this young man will shake the world of alchemist." The guild leader muttered as he fondled his long beards, the other VIP around him nodded their head.
For them someone who has such purified pill at such an age will definitely be great and top his game in alchemist.
'I wonder is Liam has other tricks under his sleeve to pull out.' His eyes was on Liam who was controlling the flames with a calm look on his face.
Liam took the finished qi pill out, of course everyone has seen the qi pill, they let out loud breath, because they were expecting another special from Liam who was able to forge the heavenly yin pill easily with a great amount of purity.
Liam pill was tested and confirmed to be 100% pure, the VIP nodded their head at him but left no remarks, the qi pill was a common pill, while the dark cloud pill was a rare dark attribute pill.
The only thing that made them to consider his work was because of his age, apart from that there was nothing there to be surprised about.
But for the alchemy guild, they all wore a smile on their faces.
Liam and the first guy left the stage for the others to forge with enough space, the guy stole a glance at Liam and snorted arrogantly.
Meanwhile Liam didn't even spare him a glance, such young master are meant to be arrogant.
His eyes was on Konad who panicked throughout his time forging, be did not have the guts to calm down anymore.
He has made a fatal mistake in his method which he was trying to correct but unfortunately he could not, and now his cauldron was on the verge of exploding.
Liam shook his head and closed his eyes as the cauldron started vibrating, soon an explosive sound filled the area. the force pushed Konad faraway from his position as he was headed straight at the sturdy fence.
Jordan let out a "Go get him" in a low tone and rocky flew through the air arriving close to Konad and grabbed him by the collar with two of it's claws.
The crowd started cheering at the heroic action of the young master, the ladies could not help but feel their face burning as love clouded their eyes.
To the guys, Jordan was just a guy who was lucky and strong and also rich while the ladies saw a young man with all the features of a lover.
