Chapter 1753 Arrogant and Elusive Rules
The middle-aged mentor nodded and retreated to the edge of the arena without saying anything.
Helian Qiguang, who appeared to have a head start, looked at Lu Zijia with a mocking gaze. "The Soul Clearing Pill is the most difficult pill to refine at the high level of the Mystic Rank. If you want to beat me, you have to refine an Earth-rank pill. Lu Zijia, I'm afraid you won't have any fate with Hongtian Academy in the future."
Lu Zijia took out the Taiyi Pill Furnace and was full of confusion after hearing that, so she asked very modestly, "Why do I have to refine Earth-rank pills to beat you?"
Hearing her question, the Martial Arts Department, the Inscriptions Department, and the others couldn't help showing unbearable expressions.
The middle-aged mentor standing at the edge of the arena glanced at Lu Zijia indifferently. "The Alchemy Department stipulates that after the alchemy challenge is announced by the impartial mentor, you can say the pills you want to refine first. The one who doesn't say it first must refine pills that are even more difficult. Otherwise, it'll be considered a loss."
Lu Zijia, who didn't know this rule, blinked innocently. "So, even if I also refined the Soul Clearing Pill, I will still lose?"
"That's right."
Without waiting for the middle-aged mentor to answer, Helian Qiguang beat him to it. "Unfortunately, even if you regret it now, you won't have a chance."
Lu Zijia ignored Helian Qiguang's gloating. She first looked at the students below the arena, then at the middle-aged mentor.
"But why don't I remember such a rule?"
She had memorized all the rules of the academy, including the rules of the challenge. However, she was very sure that there wasn't the rule mentioned by the middle-aged teacher.
The middle-aged mentor's expression didn't change. "It's the rule of the Alchemy Department."
In other words, it wasn't a rule of any department, so it certainly wouldn't be written on the rules of the academy.
Lu Zijia: "…" The Alchemy Department actually set its own rules. They were simply too arrogant!
"Senior Brother Helian, has anyone ever said that the Alchemy Department likes to cheat people?" Lu Zijia curled her lips and said a bit speechlessly.
The students of the Martial Arts Department: "…" It was a fact that almost the entire Hongtian Academy knew that the Alchemy Department cheated people. Perhaps only Fellow Student Lu didn't know.
"Cut the crap. Just wait to get out of the academy!"
Helian Qiguang sneered, took out his furnace, and sat down cross-legged.
Then, he took a pill in front of everyone that could double his soul power in a short period of time before taking out the spiritual plants used to refine the Soul Clearing Pill and starting to deal with them.
The most important thing to refine the Soul Clearing Pill was that the soul power of the alchemist had to be strong.
With the pill to increase his soul power and the Wood Spirit Fruit powder to increase his success rate, he was almost certain of winning this battle!
Seeing Helian Qiguang taking the pill in front of everyone, Lu Zijia couldn't help feeling surprised for a moment. She thought to herself, Helian Qiguang looks like he's cheating in exams in the mortal world when he took the pill before the competition!
However, everyone present seemed to be used to it. Helian Qiguang's pill-taking method should be allowed.
On the other side, Helian Qiguang was already focused on dealing with the spiritual plants, but Lu Zijia looked at the people below the arena with a smile.
"May I ask if any of you have spiritual plants to refine the Mystic Golden Core Pill? I can help you refine them, and it doesn't cost money."
Everyone who thought they heard wrongly: "???!!"
Only Lu Yizhe, Xu Qi, and the Dean of the Martial Arts Department knew that Lu Zijia knew how to refine the Mystic Golden Core Pill. Of course, there was also Mu Tianyan, her Dao companion.
So, when everyone reacted, they felt that Lu Zijia was probably going to lose this time. After all, the Mystic Golden Core Pill was an Earth-rank pill, and it was relatively difficult to refine.
And Lu Zijia was only a high-level Mystic Rank alchemist, but she wanted to refine the Mystic Golden Core Pill… They could already guess the final outcome without looking at the final outcome.
The students of the Alchemist Department and the Weapons Refinement Department were all gloating, while the students of the Martial Arts Department and the Inscriptions Department couldn't help worrying for Lu Zijia.
Many people were even thinking of ways to protect Lu Zijia.
They had benefited a lot from Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan during this period of time. They couldn't watch Lu Zijia be forced to leave Hongtian Academy just like that.
