At this time, Ye Yuan who had been sitting quietly the entire time uninterestedly suddenly got up and came beside Tong Wenchang. He said with a smile on his face, "This is only the beginning. It will be even more interesting at the back! You can continue to laugh. If you don't laugh, it's pointless."
Finished talking, Ye Yuan returned to his area and said to that Quasi-Alchemy King, "You can start the second round already."
The Quasi-Alchemy King was stunned, "Ah? Oh . . . Oh!"
As he said, his gaze turned to look at Yang Xiu, waiting for his command.
Yang Xiu nodded and said, "The second match, deconstructing medicinal pills! Begin!"
Overwhelming rage!
Tong Wenchang pointed at Ye Yuan and snarled, "Punk, don't think that you'll win for certain like this! We still don't know who will emerge victorious!"
Chapter 385 - I’m Done Again
Three medicinal pills were presented before Ye Yuan and Tong Wenchang respectively.
That Quasi-Alchemy King was just about to announce the commencement when he was interrupted by Tong Wenchang.
"Wait a minute!"
The Quasi-Alchemy King frowned and asked, "What is it?"
Tong Wenchang clasped his hands at Yang Xiu and said, "Elder Yang, I request to deconstruct ten medicinal pills! Furthermore, include three Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills among them!"
When Yang Xiu heard that, his eyes narrowed. Clearly, he was weighing Tong Wenchang's suggestion.
Undoubtedly, this request of Tong Wenchang greatly increased the difficulty of deconstructing the medicinal pills.
To Alchemy Grandmasters, they were the most familiar with Tier 3 medicinal pills.
Before breaking through to Quasi-Alchemy King, them researching Tier 4 medicinal pills was simply meaningless; it was completely an action reaching for something beyond their grasp.
And Tong Wenchang himself actually just broke through to Quasi-Alchemy King not long ago too. His proficiency level in Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills was not high.
This request undoubtedly increased the difficulty for both sides.
After musing for a moment, Yang Xiu slowly said, "I don't have any objections. But this request of yours still has to get the Xiao Family's approval. After all, this is the competition between your two families."
"I disagree! The tradition of the Grand Pill Assembly has always been competing three Tier 3 medicinal pills. What qualifications does a junior like Tong Wenchang have to alter the rules?" Xiao Changfeng immediately rejected.
Tong Wenchang sneered and said, "Humph! The Xiao Family are all a bunch of cowards! Don't even dare to fight a fair and aboveboard competition and only know how to use some small tricks! Since this punk can write out so many correct answers, I reckon that deconstructing ten medicinal pills can't stump him either, right? Why don't you ask his opinion?"
Finished talking, Tong Wenchang looked at Ye Yuan with a ridiculing face and said, "Boy, you're not the same as the Xiao Family members; all cowards, right?"
Ye Yuan looked at Tong Wenchang with a smile that was not a smile and answered with a question, "Do you really want to compete?"
Not knowing why, when he saw Ye Yuan's smile, Tong Wenchang suddenly had a bad feeling.
But his words were already said. He naturally had no reason to withdraw them and smack his own face.
Moreover, even if this punk was more powerful, it was also not possible to deconstruct Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills, right?
"Of course. Words that I, Tong Wenchang, said, how can there be the logic of taking them back? You just say whether you dare or not!"
"Since that's the case, then let's play a little bigger. Change the ten medicinal pills all to Quasi-Tier 4, how about that?"
Ye Yuan was still very indifferent. The words said were light as a feather, like Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills were the same as candy to him.
Tong Wenchang's face darkened, looking at Ye Yuan somewhat disbelievingly.
"This punk isn't deliberately forcing me, right? Ten Quasi-Tier 4 pills . . ."
Ye Yuan's words threw everyone into an uproar.
A middle-rank Alchemy Grandmaster actually wanted to deconstruct Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills. Furthermore, it was ten pills!
Although Ye Yuan's performance previously was very monstrous, everyone just thought that he was already familiar with Tier 3 medicinal pills to a heaven-defying degree.
It could not go so far as to even Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills . . .
One had to know that Ye Yuan was only 16-years-old!
Without repeated tempering, how could one possibly be familiar with medicinal pills to such a degree?
Tong Wenchang gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Ten pills then! How can I, an exalted Quasi-Alchemy King, be afraid of you, a middle-rank Alchemy Grandmaster?"
Yang Xiu also showed a slightly excited look. He wanted to see just where Ji Qing this brat's limits lied!
"Fine. Since both of you parties agree, then compete in deconstructing Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills!" Yang Xiu said.
. . . . . .
When the ten Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills were placed in front of Tong Wenchang, his expression became very ugly.
In deconstructing medicinal pills, the core materials were relatively easier to deconstruct. But the supplementary materials were not so easy to deconstruct.
He could not resist taking a look at Ye Yuan, and he could not help being stunned once more.
Ye Yuan closed his eyes to rest again!
Tong Wenchang was virtually about to break down! Where did this punk's confidence come from?
These were Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills!
Could it be that he could also instantly answer these Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills?
"This punk is definitely kicking up a cloud of dust to mess with my mind! Don't look at him anymore. I just have to do my part well, and that will do!" Tong Wenchang forcefully dragged his gaze back.
But when he had just started to deconstruct the first medicinal pill, before even determining a single type of the main ingredient, Ye Yuan's nightmare like voice sounded out.
"I'm done again," Ye Yuan said coolly.
This time, the time that he used was even shorter than the previous time!
Tong Wenchang opened and closed his mouth, feeling like his throat was somewhat dry.
When he watched Ye Yuan hand the jade slip to the Quasi-Alchemy King, Tong Wenchang was practically about to crumble.
But he had to control his impatience to finish deconstructing the ten medicinal pills!
"What if . . . What if Ji Qing is deliberately messing me up? Yes, it's definitely like this!"
Tong Wenchang secretly encouraged himself and forcefully dragged back his perturbed state of mind.
Outside, everyone was exchanging glances. They already did not know what kind of words to use to describe their astoundment.
These medicinal pills were Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills, and they were all medicinal pills owned solely by the Alchemist Association. Not one of them was a mass-produced stuff in the outside world.
Ye Yuan did not even look at them and deconstructed all of the medicinal pills?
"Hey, do you think that Ji Qing's answer will be all correct again?"
"This . . . Maybe? Deconstructing ten Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills so quickly, forget about Quasi-Alchemy Kings, even Alchemy Kings most likely can't do it as well! Unless . . ."
"Unless they know the pill formula beforehand! But . . . these ten medicinal pills are all the Alchemist Association's exclusive pill formulas!"
"This Grand Pill Assembly today is truly too surprising."
. . . . . .
Another long wait.
Tong Wenchang finally finished deconstructing all of the medicinal pills.
But at present, he was already covered in sweat.
Putting aside the mental pressure, deconstructing ten Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills in such a short time was also an enormous challenge to him.
> When the Quasi-Alchemy King presented the two person's jade slips before Yang Xiu, Yang Xiu practically snatched from him the two jade slips.
But this time, Yang Xiu did not look at Tong Wenchang's jade slips. He plunged his divine sense into Ye Yuan's jade slip at the first moment.
After several breaths, amazement was written all over Yang Xiu's face!
"Elder Yang, can it be that Ji Qing's answer . . ."
Yang Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "You guys take a look yourselves."
As he said, Yang Xiu passed Ye Yuan's jade slip to that Alchemy King elder.
After the Alchemy King elder finished looking at it, he murmured to himself, "This . . . How is this possible?"
After the seven elders finished looking at it, the expression on their faces was practically identical.
Everyone knew that Tong Wenchang's jade slip completely did not need to be looked at anymore.
But out of a responsible attitude, after being shocked for a long time, the seven elders still endured looking over Tong Wenchang's jade slip.
However, their expressions when they were looking at Tong Wenchang's jade slip was with complete nonchalance.
Evidently, after finish reading Ye Yuan's jade slip, they already found it tasteless.
"The second match, deconstructing medicinal pills, Ji Qing fully deconstructed the components of all ten medicinal pills, and he answered all the questions correctly! This match, Xiao Family's Ji Qing, victorious!" Yang Xiu finally announced the results.
Chapter 386 - Explosive Rising Dragon Pill
Buzz!
The word victorious was like a sledgehammer that smashed onto Tong Wenchang's c.h.e.s.t, making him feel stifled.
All correct!
How was this possible?
Could it be that Ye Yuan knew the complete pill formula for these ten medicinal pills?
If not for this case, how could he possibly deconstruct all of the components?
Tong Wenchang's mind was in a disorderly mess. Ye Yuan won two matches in a row like he performed extraordinarily well today. This was too great of a blow to him.
He was the Tong Family's number one genius, a legendary figure among the junior generation!
Not that he could not take losses, but this manner of defeat really made him unable to accept it!
The answers that he went through innumerable difficulties and racked his brains for did not even come close to him.
Furthermore, from start to end, Ye Yuan did not even look at the questions and just directly submitted the answers!
This way of winning was too abnormal and also too heavy of a blow!
Right at this moment, it was only to hear Yang Xiu said slowly, "I know that everybody might have doubts about this result. So I'll order someone to seal up all the medicinal pills present and these two jade slips. If anyone has objections, they can go to the Wind Emperor to request to open the seal or pay a sufficient price to the Alchemist Association."
These ten medicinal pills were all exclusively owned by the Alchemist Association. In order to not let the pill formula leak out, one naturally had to pay an adequate price to be able to view it.
If it were a normal circ.u.mstance, this price naturally would not be too great.
But the problem was that Ye Yuan deconstructed all the components of the medicinal pills without missing a single one. This way, the possibility of the pill formulas leaking out would increase dramatically.
Hence, if the Tong Family wished to view Ye Yuan's jade slip, the price they had to pay would surely be hard to imagine.
Up to this point, this crucial yet unsuspenseful competition actually had a drama-like change.
Ye Yuan secured two matches like a wild wind sweeping away fallen leaves, beating the Tong Family's number one genius, a low-rank Quasi-Alchemy King Tong Wenchang, until he could not even raise his head.
Previously, everyone thought that the Xiao Family would become a bygone after today. But Ye Yuan's sudden emergence forcefully dragged the Xiao Family back!
Now, the Xiao Family already firmly suppressed the Tong Family by a head. As long as Ye Yuan did not lose too horribly in the final match, the Xiao Family could take back 70% of the medicinal pill market's management rights anew!
Xiao Changfeng looked at Ye Yuan's back view and actually felt a chill run down his back.
Yes. An Alchemy King expert shuddered at an Alchemy Grandmaster!
He finally understood now what that sentence Ye Yuan said prior to this meant.
To beat Tong Wenchang until he had no confidence to refine pills. This statement sounded very laughable, but looking at it now, Tong Wenchang might really get a psychological obstacle in alchemy.
This kind of simple, yet crude winning method was enough to utterly crush the opponent's confidence.
If Tong Wenchang were unable to walk out from the shadow of today's defeat, then his accomplishments in this lifetime would probably end here.
But when a person's confidence was completely crushed, how could it be easy to find it again?
Such a method that destroyed one's opponent was even crueler than killing him directly.
How in the world did Tong Wenchang offend Ji Qing that the latter would actually use such a cruel manner to crush his confidence?
Xiao Changfeng dared to confirm that Ye Yuan completely did not have this intention before coming. Deciding to do so should be a sudden thought.
Xiao Changfeng remained puzzled after pondering over it!
Just what kind of a freak did my girl find? Xiao Changfeng unwittingly laughed wryly in his heart.
Xiao Changfeng was originally the most worried person among everyone about the final match.
But now, he had inexplicable confidence in Ye Yuan!
He felt that Ye Yuan could definitely defeat Tong Wenchang in refining pills!
Because to want to thoroughly crush Tong Wenchang's confidence, this third match was the most crucial one!
. . . . . .
"The third match, the medicinal pill that the two of you will be refining is the Tier 3 high-level medicinal pill, Explosive Rising Dragon Pill!" Yang Xiu said.
When his voice fell, the surroundings burst into an uproar all at once.
"Oh my God! It's actually the Explosive Rising Dragon Pill! This . . . This is seriously crazy!"
"The Explosive Rising Dragon Pill is known as an emperor-like existence among Tier 3 medicinal pills. It was not because of its medicinal effect but because of its refining difficulty!"
"Yeah. The Explosive Rising Dragon Pill's requirement towards soul force is exceedingly high! Up until now, I've never heard of any Alchemy Grandmasters that refined the Explosive Rising Dragon Pill before!"
"Tong Wenchang was utterly defeated in two matches. This match, he finally saw a bit of hope! In the case of the Explosive Rising Dragon Pill, the advantage that he has is too great!"
The Explosive Rising Dragon Pill's pill formula was not really precious. Many major factions had it. But its refining difficulty was seriously too high!
Those who could refine the Explosive Rising Dragon Pill were all Quasi-Alchemy King strength and above!
Even low-rank Quasi-Alchemy Kings would also find it very taxing to refine this medicinal pill.
As for an Alchemy Grandmaster, this medicinal pill was impossible to refine!
"Hahaha!" When Tong Wenchang heard the contents of the final match, he started laughing madly. "Ji Qing, even the heaven is helping me! I want to see just how you'll refine this medicinal pill that is unsolvable to Alchemy Grandmasters!"
Ye Yuan did not pay attention to him. He still sat there with his eyes closed to rest his mind, with an appearance like this matter did not concern him.
Tong Wenchang finally managed to find a bit of superiority sense and wanted to deal a good blow to Ye Yuan. But his fist landed on cotton, making him very depressed.
Tong Fangshuo could not help frowning when he saw the situation and finally could not sit still anymore.
"Wenchang, come over here!" Tong Fangshuo said solemnly.
Tong Wenchang was startled and came before Tong Fangshuo. "Father!"
"Wenchang, this boy is very abnormal, and his strength is formidable. You mustn't lower your guard! This third match concerns our Tong Family's next ten years' fortunes. The load on your shoulders is very heavy!" Tong Fangshuo said.
Tong Wenchang broke into a sweat and hurriedly said, "Wenchang knows. Father, please put your heart at ease!"
Tong Fangshuo sighed lightly and said, "How do you want me to feel at ease when you're like this? Didn't you notice that you've been completely brought into his rhythm by that kid?"
Tong Wenchang's hairs stood on its ends from fear, and he broke into a cold sweat.
"But . . . that punk . . ."
"I know! That's why I didn't say anything when you lost the first two matches! This kid's knowledge in the Alchemy Path is extremely solid. He probably grew up in a medicine garden from a young age! But no matter how amazing he is, he's also just a 16-years-old youth! Do you . . . understand?" Tong Fangshuo said.
"Father's meaning is . . ."
"Solid fundamental skills is Ji Qing's greatest advantage but also his greatest disadvantage! The Alchemy Path has never had a shortcut that can be taken. Without copious amount of severe training and practice, there's no way to have any sort of accomplishments! He's only 16. How formidable do you think he can be when he's truly refining pills?"
Tong Wenchang's eyes lit up and said in delight, "Father's meaning is that this Ji Qing, his theoretical knowledge is extremely powerful, so it delayed actual practice instead?"
Tong Fangshuo nodded slightly and said, "That's right! If it was some other medicinal pill, then forget it. But this Explosive Rising Dragon Pill is immensely advantageous to you! You just have to refine the pill according to your own rhythm. Forget all about the first two match's defeat. This match, you can definitely turn defeat into victory!"
Chapter 387 - Legendary Realm Reappears!
When he came back again, Tong Wenchang's emotion was much more stable.
Looking at Ye Yuan who was still closing his eyes and resting, he sneered coldly and returned back to his operating platform.
