Who knew that Ye Yuan shook his head again and said to Ren Dong, "Your Senior Apprentice Sister is too slow in entering the state! How many times have I told you guys, this Five Elements Heavenly Word Art, the most important is to balance the powers of the Five Elements. She actually used such a long time before finding the feeling! Tell her when she comes back, the Five Elements Heavenly Word Art also needs to train an additional 50 thousand times!"
Ao Qian nearly vomited out a mouthful of old blood. This master's requirements … were also too stringent, right?
Although he did not know alchemy, he still knew about the Legendary Realm.
To be able to cultivate the Five Elements Heavenly Word Art to the Legendary Realm was already an unthinkable thing. But Ye Yuan actually still complained about her entering the state too slowly …
"Yes, Master!" Ren Dong was clearly already accustomed to this and did not feel that there was anything inappropriate.
Time slowly trickled by. The two people's refinement also gradually entered a white-hot stage.
"Emerald Sea Truewater Pill, condense!" Gu Yue gave a loud cry. The medicinal pill finally formed.
Immediately after, Xiao Ruyan also cried out lightly, "Condense!"
Right on the heels, the two people virtually formed the pill at the same time!
"Beauty, how is it? Ready to be my women yet?" Gu Yue said with a smug smile.
Finishing refining, Xiao Ruyan still felt pretty good. But hearing Gu Yue's words, her face turned cold again, and she said, "You'd better think about how to be this young lady's disciple!"
"Heh heh, in Alchemy Venerable this realm, absolutely nobody is my match! Moreover, you're even just a middle-rank Alchemy Venerable! Resign yourself to your fate!" Gu Yue said with a confident look.
While at this time, the surrounding people all had looks of anticipation. They all wanted to take a look at just who won this pill battle.
Although Gu Yue was strong, Xiao Ruyan had reached the Legendary Realm!
"Senior, open the furnace and examine the pill then!" Gu Yue said with a wide grin.
The Alchemy Emperor nodded his head, but took no notice of him. He went to Xiao Ruyan's side rather impatiently.
"Open!"
The alchemy emperor pointed a finger. A medicinal pill flew out and landed in the container.
The Alchemy Emperor's eyes lit up, and he said, "Indeed a superior-grade Emerald Sea Truewater Pill! A pity, a pity, if the medicinal cauldron was swapped for something a little better, it would definitely be a transcendent-grade medicinal pill!"
The Alchemy Emperor's words made Gu Yue's entire body tremble. The originally smug expression instantly turned stiff on his face.
Superior-grade medicinal pill? This … How was this possible?
His gaze involuntarily looked at his own medicinal cauldron and instantly became uncertain.
After that Alchemy Emperor sighed, he slowly came to Gu Yue's side and retrieved the medicinal pill as he had done.
"High-grade Emerald Sea Truewater Pill! Looks pretty good, just a little bit more to reach superior-grade. A shame, it's still lacking some level of skill! This match, Xiao Ruyan wins!" the Alchemy Emperor said sonorously.
Gu Yue's face was ashen pale. Until now, he still did not dare to believe that this was real.
"Impossible! This is impossible! How can she possibly refine a superior-grade Emerald Sea Truewater Pill?"
The Alchemy Emperor knew Gu Yue and knew that this battle's influence on him was probably tremendous. He sighed at once and said, "This lassie cultivated the Five Elements Heavenly Word Art to the Legendary Realm and refined a superior-grade medicinal pill. There are not many strange aspects. This match, you didn't lose unjustly."
"L-Legendary Realm?"
Gu Yue looked at Xiao Ruyan in disbelief. He could not tell no matter how he looked, how such a frail girl cultivated the Five Elements Heavenly Word Art to the Legendary Realm.
At this time, Xiao Ruyan finally let out a sigh in relief.
Gu Yue this fellow was arrogant, but his capabilities were really considerable. He actually almost refined a superior-grade medicinal pill.
But her gaze secretly sneaked a peek at Ye Yuan. She knew that her performance, Master was probably very unsatisfied.
She guessed correctly. It was just that at this time, she could not care about the punishment anymore either, but said to Gu Yue with a wide grin on her face, "How is it, Young Master Gu, kowtow and acknowledge as master then?"
Gu Yue froze. Only then did he recall the two people's agreement.
This match, he was completely defeated!
According to the agreement, he had to kowtow to Xiao Ruyan and acknowledge her as his master in public!
Gu Yue revealed a look of struggle. He suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "This match, I'm willing to admit defeat! But to acknowledge you as my master, wait until after I have a match with him!"
Everyone followed his gaze and looked over, and discovered that the person he was pointing at was precisely Ren Dong!
Chapter 1032 - Sticking On?
Gu Yue's face no longer had that look of arrogance from before. He used an entire half day's time before barely managing to crawl out from the shadow of failure.
The so-called the higher you climb, the harder you fall, using it to describe Gu Yue was perfect.
But Gu Yue was indeed a talent as well. After half a day, he finally managed to recollect his mind and threw it into the face-off with Ren Dong.
His goal was very simple: from where he fell down, from where he would get up!
He wanted to regain confidence from Ren Dong. Otherwise, after today's pill battles, he, a genius alchemist who formerly dazzled Cloudmarsh City, would probably fade into the crowd from here on.
"Just who the hell is that little girl? Gu Yue's 3420 consecutive victories were actually ended just like that?"
"Yeah. Thinking about it, it's just like having a dream. After Lord Qingyun Zi, Gu Yue is the first genius alchemist to be able to win so many matches in a row. I virtually already thought that he'd definitely be able to reach Lord Qingyun Zi's height in the future!"
"Speaking of which, Silent Offering was Lord Qingyun Zi's self-created fire-controlling ultimate skill. Could it be that this girlie actually has connections to Lord Qingyun Zi?"
"This … is impossible, right? I've never heard of Lord Qingyun Zi having a successor before!"
Gu Yue winning over 3400 matches in a row, no one would doubt his strength. For Xiao Ruyan to be able to beat Gu Yue, it could only indicate that her strength was even greater.
But at this time, everyone started to become interested in Ren Dong's strength.
Busybodies already knew that Ren Dong was Xiao Ruyan's junior apprentice brother. Then whether or not Gu Yue would fall down twice in the same place, this was very worth looking forward to.
The pill battle began. This time, Gu Yue unleashed all of his skills, hoping to display his strength to the limits.
But everyone's gaze was focused on Ren Dong.
"Silent Offering again!"
Not long after, cries of exclamations sounded out everywhere again.
"Legendary Realm! It's the Legendary Realm again!"
"My God, just what kind of person can teach such a terrifying senior sister and junior brother?"
The pill refinement ended. The Alchemy Emperor examined the pill once more.
"Gu Yue, high-grade medicinal pill, Ren Dong, superior-grade medicinal pill! Ren Dong wins!"
Hearing this verdict, Gu Yue directly flopped weakly onto the ground, as if he was drained completely of his strength, battered out of his senses.
Although he barely managed to calm his state of mind, the shadow of the last defeat was still hovering in his heart.
Under such circ.u.mstances, it was already very not easy for him to still be able to refine a high-grade medicinal pill. It was just that the opponent he encountered was Ren Dong.
The present Ren Dong wa
s already completely different from the condescending Ren Dong back then.
Through these dozen over years of tempering, he already grew into a true grandmaster of an era. At present, his alchemy Dao strength was not the slightest bit inferior to Xiao Ruyan's.
With over 3400 matches and he had yet to taste defeat. This time, he was defeated in two matches straight. This blow to him was too great.
"Heh heh, surpassing Lord Qingyun Zi, you're still 10 thousand years too early! Your over 3400 over matches of consecutive wins doesn't have much quality at all! It's just that you never encountered a true opponent, that's all! While Lord Qingyun Zi back then, practically challenged the entire Divine Realm's genius alchemists with his strength alone! While you, how big of a commotion did you cause? Therefore … you have got to know how to hold someone in awe!" Xiao Ruyan said nonchalantly.
It was like Gu Yue lost his soul, completely unable to accept this fact at all.
When a person fell from the summit, this sort of tremendous drop was very easy to make him crumble. The current Gu Yue was clearly like that.
These few years, he was already extolled to the skies by the entire Cloudmarsh City, saying that he was going to surpass Qingyun Zi's fame.
But today, he was defeated twice in a row under Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong's hands, immediately crushing his powerful confidence.
When Xiao Ruyan saw Gu Yue's appearance, she also could not bother to haggle over it with him anymore. Honestly speaking, she did not wish to take such a guy in as a disciple.
"Forget it, this young lady is magnanimous and won't fuss about your offense of affront. Junior Apprentice Brother, let's go," Xiao Ruyan said.
Ren Dong nodded his head and walked down the stage together with Xiao Ruyan.
"Wait a minute!"
The two people did not walk out far when they heard Gu Yue shouting from behind.
Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong turned their heads around and were just about to speak, but Gu Yue had a solemn look as he said, "I, Gu Yue, am a man of my words! Since I lost to you, I'll admit my loss!"
Slam!
Gu Yue immediately gave a loud kowtow and shouted, "Master!"
Slam!
"Master!"
Slam!
"Master!"
Gu Yue directly kowtowed three times and called master thrice. It was not perfunctory at all.
Him being so unabashed made Xiao Ruyan rather surprised instead. In this instant, her impression of Gu Yue had a slight change.
Presumably, this guy was an ignorant youth whose confidence swelled to the extreme, unaware of the logic of, there was always someone better and a heaven beyond heaven.
But honestly speaking, this guy's alchemy Dao strength was still rather formidable.
Although his foundation was not as solid as the two of them, it was also hard to come by among young people.
Xiao Ruyan waved her hand when she saw the situation and said, "Alright, alright, this matter ends here. It's just losing two matches of pill battles, no big deal. Knowing humiliation and striving harder afterward, that is how a real man ought to be."
Xiao Ruyan had an old teacher appearance, and actually really took herself to be his master, and started lecturing Gu Yue.
She did not expect Gu Yue to say with a stern countenance, "I, Gu Yue, am true to my words! These two matches, I'm wholehearted convinced by my loss! From now onwards, I, Gu Yue, will be Miss Ruyan's disciple! Master is high above, please accept a bow from this disciple!"
As he said, he gave another kowtow, and it was considered the ceremony of acknowledging a master.
With this, it was Xiao Ruyan who was caught rather by surprise instead. She hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No way, no way, I don't have the qualifications to accept disciples! This young lady hasn't even graduated from apprenticeship myself!"
But Gu Yue scrambled to his feet and said, "The two of us had an agreement beforehand, how can you renege on your word? There are so many people in the same profession bearing witness today, how can I, Gu Yue, be someone who gets fat on eating his words? No matter what, I'm already your disciple! Wherever you go, I'll follow!"
Hearing that, Xiao Ruyan's face turned black. This guy was actually like a dog-skin plaster, sticking onto her?
Not far again, when Ao Qian saw this scene, he could not help finding it funny as he said, "This brat has some good judgment. Him wanting to acknowledge Miss Xiao as his master is probably still aiming for milord! To be able to walk out from the shadow of defeat so quickly, he's a promising talent too."
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "These two matches might be a new beginning for him. If he really completed 5000 matches of consecutive victories, the path in the future will be even more arduous instead. When he breaks through to Alchemy Emperor Realm, he'd probably also just be mediocre. The strength of Alchemy Emperor powerhouses, he likely still thought too simply in the past."
Regarding Ye Yuan's words, Ao Qian and the rest all deeply felt that way too.
Ye Yuan could crush 5000 over Alchemy Emperors, did not mean that others could also crush 5000 over Alchemy Emperors.
No matter what, Alchemy Emperors were the current Divine Realm alchemists' apex existences. Their strength brooked no underestimation.
"Your Excellency, what to do about this matter? How about, I go and beat that brat down, in case he sticks onto?" Ao Qian said.
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, "Let him be. I want to see just how much sincerity he has."
Chapter 1033 - Play Another Round
Receiving Ye Yuan's look, Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong did not care about Gu Yue either. They directly followed Ye Yuan and prepared to leave.
Gu Yue was really like a sticky candy, following Xiao Ruyan at every step.
The Divine King expert who was constantly following Gu Yue followed behind Gu Yue.
"Wang Qian, you return to the lodging and wait for me first. Before I find you, don't come over and look for me anymore," Gu Yue instructed.
Wang Qian's expression stiffened, and he said with difficulty, "Young Master, this … Could it be that you really want to acknowledge that little girl as your master? In my view, even though that girl's strength is very strong, it's still just slightly stronger compared to Young Master. She's still not qualified enough to be your master!"
Gu Yue shook his head and said, "You don't understand! The disparity between me and her right now isn't large. But along with the passage of time, the disparity between me and her will become greater and greater! By the time we both reach peak Alchemy Emperor Realm, this young master will probably not even be able to see her back view anymore."
Wang Qian looked at his young master oddly. Gu Yue's personality, he was all too clear. This sort of words that diminished his own prestige, he would never say it.
Looks like today, he was really utterly convinced by his loss.
"But Young Master, if Family Head knows of this matter …" Wang Qian said hesitantly.
Gu Yue waved his hand and said, "You don't say, I don't say, how will he know?"
Wang Qian knew Young Master's temperament. Helpless, he could only leave by himself.
Ye Yuan's party divided the crowd and were just about to leave, but had their path blocked by a group of people.
The person at the front looked around 30 plus years old, with a highly spirited appearance. The most conspicuous was the high-rank Alchemy Emperor badge on his c.h.e.s.t.
The Divine Realm had many Alchemy Emperors. But people who were able to reach high-rank alchemy emperor were scanty few.
Between initial-rank Alchemy Emperor and high-rank Alchemy Emperor was an insurmountable chasm.
High-rank Alchemy Emperor, was the highest rank realm among the alchemist realms that the Alchemist Association divided!
Which was also to say that within the scope that the Alchemist Association recognized, high-rank Alchemy Emperor was the pinnacle of alchemists.
Of course, it was not that there was no disparity between high-rank Alchemy Emper
ors and high-rank Alchemy Emperors.
Among alchemists, there was a form of address towards an extremely small group of people, that was peak Alchemy Emperor.
This peak Alchemy Emperor was somewhat similar to the Void Mystic Realm in essence energy cultivation realms.
Only by being publicly recognized by everyone as a peak Alchemy Emperor, was it truly standing at the apex of the Divine Realm's alchemists.
And only peak Alchemy Emperors, would be addressed respectfully as 'Zi.'
This group of people was the bunch of people who truly guided the direction of the Divine Realm's alchemy world.
Of course, even so, this high-rank Alchemy Emperor in front was an exceedingly rare existence too.
"Didn't think that our former peerless genius, Qingyun Zi, actually fell to such a plight today. Tsk tsk, initial-rank Alchemy Emperor, is it? The Qingyun Zi who slaughtered in all directions in Cloudmarsh City back then actually returned to the starting point now. Hahaha …"
That person laughed wildly, his laughter carrying a ton of satisfaction. Seeing Ye Yuan encounter a calamity at present, he seemed to be very liberated.
But his words caused a mighty uproar among the crowd.
"Qingyun Zi! Lord Zuo Qing said that he was Lord Qingyun Zi just now? This … There's no mistake, right?"
"What?! That young man is Lord Qingyun Zi? How is this possible?"
"Didn't Lord Qingyun Zi perish long ago? Could it be that who Lord Zuo Qing is talking about is another Qingyun Zi?"
"Are you a pig? In this world, apart from Ji Qingyun, who else dares to proclaim to be Qingyun Zi?"
...
Everyone's gaze all looked over towards Ye Yuan, being astounded by this unexpected news.
Ji Qingyun not dying, this news, was seriously too astonishing. Especially in Cloudmarsh City this place.
In this city, Ji Qingyun was a godlike existence!
His achievement on the Alchemy Emperor Proclamation was a myth-like record. For 100 thousand years, he was the one-and-only legendary figure!
The alchemists mucking around in Cloudmarsh City, regardless of how strong their strength was, their goal was only one: Ji Qingyun!
Back then when Qingyun Zi fell, the entire Cloudmarsh City stunned.
