"At number four, stands Gu Hua. At number three, Ding Yan."
With that, these two looked at Liu Feng pensively. They did not expect that someone got placed above them. The only obvious person who could take that place was Liu Feng.
He was only being considered for the first place of course because no one could possibly get the first place. Bai Zhiqui made history by forming a pill of that level.
"And at second place, from Cairin City, Bai Zhiqui!" Pill Elder Qingshan said.
With that, the three pill geniuses glared at Liu Feng. Even Bai Zhiqui was shocked. She did not expect someone else to get first place. Keep in mind that Liu Feng completed the pill forming in almost half as time as the others.
"And at first place, from the Sky Heavens sect, Liu Tian." the pill elder said, and the audience went into chaos. They could not wrap their heads around the fact that someone they had never heard of could win the first round of the pill meet.
"I do not believe this! How much purity is his pill? For him to defeat the three pill geniuses?" one of the alchemists on the stage asked. He was also displeased by this result.
Some nobody was the number one genius in the entire kingdom? That only made his position lower.
"Liu Tian submitted a freshly made Myriad Aspects Pill that had eighty percent purity. In my hundreds of years of experience, I have seen hundreds of Myriad Aspect Pills, but never, have I seen a pill of his purity." Pill Elder Qingshan said.
"He must have cheated!" someone shouted.
Pill Elder Qingshan looked at that person coldly.
"The Cairin city decided in secret that the Myriad Aspects Pill would be the pill to make in this first round. The ingredients to make this pill are extremely rare, and an alchemist to make this is impossible to find. Even if someone made that pill, to have eighty percent purity is almost impossible. And putting all that aside, as a pill elder, do you not think that I can see which pill is freshly made?" he barked.
The man who said that shrinked down, and cowered.
"With this, the first round is over. The day has ended, and I think it is only appropriate that we continue this tomorrow." Master Mu stood up and said.
The audience grunted in response and slowly slithered away. The arena emptied slowly, and the four in the center remained there.
Bai Zhiqui looked at Liu Feng.
"How were you able to make the pill faster than everyone else, and also make it at such high purity? I have never seen anyone one make the pill that fast. Not even my master can do that!" she said.
"I happened to have a good inheritance, and my master taught me a good way to make this pill." Liu Feng swiftly ended that conversation.
He did not want to take this any longer, and was about to leave.
"Haha, brother Tian. Maybe a few tips from you can help us out? You are our senior in the alchemy way in so many regards." Ding Yan stopped Liu Feng.
"I am tired. Maybe one day, when I don't have things to do." Liu Feng shook his head.
"Ah, that is too bad." Ding Yan shook his head.
Liu Feng walked away, leaving the three to look at each other blankly.
"I never would have thought that someone new would become the greatest alchemy genius in the entire kingdom. It seems like the Sky Heavens sect has a true alchemy master that no one knows about." Ding Yan sighed.
"Liu Tian... was an alchemist before he was a part of the Sky Heavens Sect. I suspect that his master is someone secular." Bai Zhiqui said.
Achoo!
"Who the hell is talking about me behind my back? It must be those three fellows. This is why I hate the spotlight." Liu Feng cursed and walked around the crowded streets of the city.
With nightfall, the streets were buzzing, and everyone was walking by.
Liu Feng took out his cloak and put it on. Now that his face was a little famous, he did not want the trouble that was associated.
He stopped at one of the random stores around here. The mortals in this city were staggering in number.
He entered a mundane restaurant and sat on one side, looking at the window.
"What are you doing here, looking out the window? Do you not have any companions for the night?" an old voice startled him.
"Who?" he looked forward. It was not every day that someone could just appear in front of him without him noticing.
"Master Mu!" his face turned respectful.
He would rather show some respect to someone who was now in control of the strongest alchemy force the kingdom had ever seen.
But the truth behind that was that this was all only possible because Liu Feng made a mess in Yurin city all that time ago. These were merely the repercussions of that.
"So then. You must be wondering why I asked you to come here. At a time when you are supposed to be lying low, I brought you to the spotlight." Master Mu smiled.
"Yes. And how did you know that I was an alchemist? I mean, Bai Zhiqui might have said that before, but how did you know that I was good enough?" Liu Feng asked.
"Haha, that is out of my league. I would rather not answer that. But the reason of helping out the kingdom was only temporary. The real reason is much more important." Master Mu said.
"Is this related to my father?" Liu Feng asked seriously.
"Not completely. This one, this one is related to your mother." Master Mu sighed.
