Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204

  He sighed and said, "This was also hard on you. According to what you said, that Elder Ye might really be a chess piece pushed out by Second Elder. This matter, don't take part if you can choose not to take part then!"

  Chapter 1584 - Is There Still Regard for Pecking Order?

  The Pill Tower competition was the Pill Tower's grandest event.

  From disciples to elders, they all had to take part, competing for a spot to enter the Pill Tower.

  The Pill Tower was a faction of Heavenly Eagle Imperial City, and also a cultivation tower that everyone yearned for. The Martial Tower was likewise so.

  Each Pill Tower competition, in order to fight for the spot to enter the Pill Tower, the elders would also crack their heads.

  Pill Martial Twin Towers were the entire Heavenly Eagle Imperial City's most beautiful structures. The entire Heavenly Eagle Imperial City, no matter from which angle, one could see the twin towers that towered into the clouds side by side.

  At this time, below the Pill Tower, people assembled on an enormous plaza.

  The Pill Tower competition and Martial Tower competition were both major events that involved the inner city as well as the entire Heavenly Eagle Imperial City's future direction. The attention paid was naturally extremely high.

  Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "You guys, quickly look! The elders are out!"

  A corner of the plaza close to the Pill Tower had a very high grandstand built temporarily. This was specially prepared for the elders.

  Even those deacons did not have the qualifications to sit here either.

  At this time, the elders entered in a single file, each finding their seats and taking it.

  Deercry was so angry in his heart!

  The others sitting on top, he was convinced of their qualifications.

  But this Ye Yuan made him as uncomfortable as having eaten a fly.

  With this, he really ran on top of his head to shit and pee.

  "You all, look, that's the newly-appointed Elder Ye Yuan, so young!"

  "More than just young! He's simply a little kid, alright? Many Pill Tower's Three-star Alchemy God disciples are hundreds of years older than him!"

  "Tsk tsk, truly, you can't judge a man by his looks! It's just, no idea how his true standard is. I heard that he refused Song Qiyang's challenge."

  "Heh, scared, right? Now, everyone says that he's the chess piece pushed out by Second Elder, I think it's most likely the case."

  "Yeah, such a little kid, he can have the qualifications to be an elder? Isn't that nonsense?!"

  ...

  Ye Yuan appearing in the ranks of the group of elders truly seemed somewhat glaring.

  Compared to the other elders, he was somewhat ridiculously young.

  Even the vast majority of the disciples were much older than Ye Yuan.

  This kind of situation occurring, it naturally made many people feel very off in their hearts.

  Of course, the one who felt the most off-balance was Song Qiyang.

  He looked at Ye Yuan below, sneering unceasingly in his heart.

  You just be smug then. Today, I'm going to challenge you in front of everybody! I don't believe that you can avoid and not a battle! Song Qiyang sneered coldly in his heart.

  All preparations in place, Song Qiyang slowly stepped out of the ranks and said to Rou Xu with clasped hands, "Head Elder, I heard that the newly-appointed Elder Ye's alchemy strength is formidable. This disciple is untalented and wants to seek guidance from him. There are quite a few disciples present, I think everyone wants to witness Elder Ye's elegant bearing. Just take it as … giving the competition this time a warm-up!"

  Everyone clearly did not expect that Song Qiyang actually played this move, challenging Ye Yuan in front of so many people. If Ye Yuan still did not accept the challenge, it probably could not be justified, right?

  However, they also indeed looked forward to it very much, at just how Ye Yuan's true strength was.

  For a moment, all gazes turned toward Ye Yuan, wanting to see how he would cope with the present situation.

  Rou Xu looked at Ye Yuan meaningfully and said, "Elder Ye, right now in the imperial city, the criticism toward you numbered quite a lot! There are quite a few people who say that you're young and lacking to take on the position of elder. Some also say that you're just a Three-star Alchemy God and aren't worthy of being an elder. Why not take this chance and show some ability for everyone?"

  These two people sang in chorus, directly forcing Ye Yuan to the corner.

  Quite a few elders, deacons, and protectors were all watching the joke. After all, Ye Yuan coming into existence so sudden made them very unconvinced.

  "Yeah, Elder Ye, show some skill and also let us broaden our horizons!"

  "Elder Ye enjoys success at a young age. He definitely has areas where he surpasses others. Why not take this chance and let us learn!"

  The group of deacons and protectors craved for the world to be plunged into chaos, all concurring.

  Second Elder did not like to fight and had always been ostracized by Head Elder.

  The deacons and protectors present, the majority were Head Elder's people. They were naturally here to watch the joke.

  Ye Yuan sneered in his heart and suddenly asked, "Head Elder, this Song Qiyang is your disciple, right?"

  Rou Xu nodded and said, "That's right."

  Ye Yuan suddenly snorted coldly and said, "Head Elder, this disciple of yours is also too ignorant of the rules! The matter a few days ago, I presume that Head Elder wouldn't be unaware, right? A mere Three-star disciple, what right does he have to come and challenge this elder? Today, in front of so many people, he just said those words a little nicer. Is this wanting to force me to abdicate? Head Elder, with this precedent today, then what prestige would all the elders present still have in the future?"

  Song Qiyang could not help choking, his face flushing red.

  Similarly Three-star Alchemy God, he was even two minor realms higher than Ye Yuan. But his single rebuttal trampled him dead.

  The difference in status was too great.

  Ye Yuan suddenly making things difficult for him caught Rou Xu by surprise.

  He did not think that Ye Yuan, a young man, actually knew bureaucratic play and trickery, pressing people with circ.u.mstances.

  Even though these words sounded like avoidance no matter what, he really could not find words to refute.

  If according to realm, Song Qiyang was more than plenty to challenge Ye Yuan.

  But according to status, Song Qiyang was not even fit to carry shoes for Ye Yuan!

  Saying these words today was disobeying one's superiors in itself.

  But this way, Rou Xu was even more convinced that Ye Yuan was definitely an embroidered pillow, not daring to accept the challenge.

  Rou Xu's reaction was quick as well, immediately giving Deercry a look.

  Deercry understood, got up, and said, "Ye Yuan, I wonder if this old man has the qualifications to challenge you?"

  "Insolence!" The moment his voice faded, Ye Yuan immediately launched an attack and said in a cold voice, "Who the hell are you, to dare directly call this elder by name?"

  Deercry's face turned into the color of pig liver. Being said like this by a little boy who was not even old enough to be his grandson, he was really going crazy!

  Deercry relied on that he was Rou Xu's confidant and normally did not take ordinary elders seriously either, directly calling them by their names.

  His seniority was even older than those elders. Taking advantage of his seniority a bit, no one dared to say anything either.

  Who knew that today, Ye Yuan actually directly used this to shoot.

  Ye Yuan had a grim look and said to Rou Xu, "Head Elder, I think our Pill Tower should be reorganized properly. Is there still any regard for pecking order? Why not … I propose to have an elders meeting and discuss this problem well, and come up with a solution?"

  Rou Xu had not opened his mouth yet
when the Xuan Yu who had his eyes shut to rest the entire time suddenly spoke up.

  "Mn, this pecking order should be discussed properly." Finished talking, he shut his eyes again, as if he did not say anything.

  The moment Second Elder opened his mouth, the weight of the speech was different.

  With today's matter as the pretext, having an elders meeting did not seem to be inappropriate.

  Head Elder's lineage was used to playing the tyrant and did not place the other elders in their sights at all. The concept of pecking order had actually long weakened already.

  This naturally could not scare Rou Xu. But it made Rou Xu secretly become alert in his heart.

  This Ye Yuan was not easy to deal with!

  This kid had a completely different style than Xuan Yu, very troublesome!

  Suddenly, Rou Xu opened his mouth and said, "Deacon Deercry, why haven't you apologized to Elder Ye?"

  Chapter 1585 - Competing on Fire Control

  Deercry was furious!

  His old face could be said to not give face to anyone except Head Elder.

  He did not expect that today, he actually had to lower his head to a little brat!

  But if he did not lower his head now, it was equivalent to challenging the entire Elders Association.

  This crime, he could not undertake it.

  If it really blew up, he absolutely could not gain anything!

  Deercry gritted his teeth and said, "E-Elder Ye, just now, it was Deercry who was impetuous. E-Elder Ye, please don't take offense!"

  When he said 'Elder Ye' two words, he felt goosebumps breaking out all over his body. It was truly uncomfortable all over.

  When the others saw this scene, there was an indescribable peculiarity.

  Deercry was old until he was almost entering the coffin, but he extended a formal apology to such a young elder. There was an indescribable sense of discordance.

  "Mn, looking on account of Head Elder's face, I'll spare you this time! If you were to offend again next time, you'll be punished with due severity according to the Pill Tower's rules!" Ye Yuan had a very magnanimous appearance, really like he was lecturing a junior.

  This kid even went along with it!

  Deercry snorted coldly and said, "Elder Ye, I'm seeking your advice today to liven things up for the Pill Tower's competition, how about it?"

  Ye Yuan said coolly, "You're merely a deacon, so what qualifications do you have to come and seek advice from me?"

  The moment these words came out, a wave of boos came from below.

  Clearly, they already put up with Ye Yuan's approach of avoidance to the extreme.

  Always using the identity of an elder to come and pressure people, it was also very hard to convince the masses.

  When Deercry saw this scene, he could not help being overjoyed in his heart.

  Deercry smiled coldly and said, "Heh heh, Elder Ye is merely a Three-star Alchemy God, no matter how lacking this old man is, I'm also a middle-rank Four-star Alchemy God. Could it be that I'm not qualified to be your opponent? Or is it that you're simply holding a post without real qualifications and don't dare to accept the challenge at all?"

  Facing the booing, Ye Yuan did not care at all and said disdainfully, "If I can't even win you, then what qualifications do I have to be an elder? Forget it, since you all want to witness this elder's strength, then I'll satisfy you all."

  Deercry revealed a look of surprise. He even thought that Ye Yuan was going to be stubborn until the end and prepared a whole bunch of narratives.

  He did not expect that Ye Yuan actually agreed.

  "Huhu, then Elder Ye please advise," Deercry clasped his hands and said with a smile.

  He did not think that Ye Yuan could win him at all. If he could not even win a Three-star Alchemy God, this lifetime was also in vain.

  However, Ye Yuan said, "When did I say that I was going to compete with you?"

  Deercry froze but saw Ye Yuan clasp his hands at Rou Xu and said, "Head Elder, ever since entering the Heavenly Eagle Imperial City, this Ye heard that your Alchemy Dao is exceedingly formidable. No one can beat you in this Heavenly Eagle Imperial City. This Ye is untalented and wants to challenge Head Elder today. I wonder … how does Head Elder feel about it?"

  Everyone was dumbfounded, this boy was going to challenge Head Elder?

  He was crazy, right?!

  The entire Heavenly Eagle Imperial City, apart from Second Elder, there was actually still someone who dared to challenge Head Elder!

  Head Elder and Second Elder were pinnacle existences in Heavenly Eagle Imperial City.

  They were the absolute leading echelon of Alchemy Dao!

  The other elders were not on the same level as the two of them at all.

  A measly little Three-star Alchemy God actually dared to directly challenge Head Elder!

  Only an imperceptible faint smile flashed across the corners of Second Elder Xuan Yu's mouth.

  He suddenly discovered that Ye Yuan's appearance was simply a gospel to him.

  The things that he was good at, Ye Yuan was more skilled.

  The things that he was not good at, Ye Yuan was adept too!

  Most likely, everyone would think that Ye Yuan was overestimating his own ability. But he knew that Ye Yuan facing off with Rou Xu, he would definitely completely trounce the other party!

  He and Rou Xu fought for so many years, he was all too clear about Rou Xu's strength.

  This move of Ye Yuan's was truly too brilliant!

  If Rou Xu agreed, he would definitely lose.

  At that time, Rou Xu's face would be swept clean.

  If Rou Xu capitalized on his identity and did not agree, Ye Yuan could also take advantage of it and shake off the other party's pestering.

  If Rou Xu was smart, he should not stalemate with Ye Yuan anymore.

  Otherwise, he would die very horribly today.

  Rou Xu also froze and immediately laughed and said, "Oh? Elder Ye actually wants to challenge this old man? Huhu, truly the young are fearless! If this old man avoids it and did not battle with you, it would probably dampen everyone's spirits today. Fine, this old man agrees!"

  Xuan Yu looked at Rou Xu rather surprisedly but immediately shut his eyes again.

  Courting death oneself, then it could not be helped.

  "Head Elder actually agreed!"

  "To be able to see Head Elder personally take action, it's truly hard to come by!"

  "Haha, that kid thought that Head Elder would relent because of his identity and won't fuss about it with him. Yet, Head Elder agreed!"

  ...

  Many people from Head Elder's faction were all mocking Ye Yuan for overestimating his ability and also looked forward to Head Elder taking action very much.

  Rou Xu and Ye Yuan's pill battle could naturally only refine Three-star divine pills.

  And in the attainments of Three-star divine pills, Head Elder had long reached the acme of perfection already. Wasn't dealing with Ye Yuan as simple as capturing a prey with ease?

  Ye Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Head Elder, today's main show is the Pill Tower's competition. We can't snatch other people's limelight. Why not put our sparring after the competition?"

  Rou Xu nodded his head and said, "May as well, up to you! Pill Tower competition, begin!"

  A deacon came to the center of the square and said in a clear voice, "First round, competing on fire control. Requesting the kindling!"

  The moment the voice faded, the top of the Pill Tower suddenly spewed out a stream of flames.

  In a blink of an eye, it was like a rain of flames fell down, scattering everywhere.

  At this time, several hundred Three-star disciples formed a huge circle. Those flame rain actually landed beside them accurately.

  These flames were rank three divine fires too but did not have special attributes, as if all of the spirituality was wiped away.

  The first round, competing on fire control, these Three-star disciples had to control
these divine fires without spirituality and eradicate the other people's divine fire.

  This round would eliminate a large portion of Three-star disciples. Only 100 people would be left behind in the end to enter the second round.

  This kind of competition was very fair to everyone. Everybody's flame was identical and there was not the slightest aspect to resort of trickery.

  What they could do was improve their fire controlling skills and defeat the rest.

  Several hundred elite disciples competing with fire inside a circle, this scene was extremely spectacular.

  "Sigh, competing on fire control this round has nothing to compete in. There's no suspense at all!"

  "Yeah, Song Qiyang's fire controlling arts leaves people far behind in the dust. Within Three-stars, he has no rival at all."

  "Song Qiyang will probably deal a vicious blow this time. Those Three-star disciples of Second Elder's will be a bit dangerous this time."

  ...

  Since it was competing on fire master, one would have to ruthlessly exterminate other people's divine fire.

  Song Qiyang currently had a stomach full of anger, he would definitely target Second Elder's disciples.

  "Begin!"

  Following the deacon's loud yell, the fire competition officially drew back the curtains.

  A hint of a cold smile flashed across the corners of Song Qiyang's mouth. Raising a fingertip, that divine fire flew out obediently.

  Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

  It was only to see countless flames intertwined together, immediately causing everyone to fall into a chaotic battle.

  "Puhwark!"

  Song Qiyang's flame was akin to a sharp sword, directly extinguishing a Second Elder's disciple's flame.

  The slaughter, begun!

  Chapter 1586 - Brutal Devastation!

  Competing for the qualifications to enter the Pill Tower, no one would slack off at this time.

  Everyone would go all out. Those whose power were lacking, they unleashed all of their abilities, their faces flushing red.

  This kind of tangled warfare, the requirement on fire control was exceedingly high.

  If the flame was big, one would become a common target for all. If the flame was small, one's offensive would be insufficient as well.
