The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 424 The Medicine King Sect is eliminated!

Xiao Heyun's heart sank as well; a ninth-grade spiritual pill...

The system's reward only allowed him to refine eighth-grade pills, but he himself had never actually had time to study alchemy...

He lost his confidence and began to resent those women even more.

If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't win their favor, I would have been a Grandmaster of Alchemy long ago!

A mere ninth-grade elixir is nothing to me.
Only the Demon Clan's young master and Song Wanning remained completely unmoved.

Huo Jinchuan glanced at the two of them, then calmly picked up his teacup and took a sip.

He knew the ending from the very beginning, didn't he?
only……

Who among these two will win the championship?

He actually became somewhat interested.

"Now, please begin the refining process!"

With a command from the steward, the competition officially began.

This time, however, most people did not act rashly, but instead took out the prescription and studied it carefully.

Only Song Wanning and the young master of the Demon Clan started processing the medicinal materials as soon as they came up, which showed that they were very familiar with the pill formula.

When Wu Qingfeng saw this scene, the thread in his heart almost snapped.

He didn't even dare to think about what would happen if the Medicine King Sect lost.
I should have known better than to bring the team myself...

His face looked terrible, and the Fourth Elder beside him kept making sarcastic remarks, which made him so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

"It's not over yet, Fellow Daoist Mei, don't be too happy yet!"

He glared at the Fourth Elder through gritted teeth, but in his heart he had already seen through it all.

Song Wanning's mastery of alchemy far surpassed that of ordinary people; those two disciples were no match for her at all!

He frowned deeply, a hint of doubt creeping into his mind.

Given Song Wanning's intelligence, why didn't the ancestor choose her back then?
If she had been chosen as the successor, none of these problems would exist now.
She will only lead the Medicine King Sect to its peak once again...

But it's too late to say anything now. Only by killing Song Wanning can we prevent the development of the Medicine King Sect from being affected...

……

On the stone platform, the disciples began refining pills one after another, while the people below were completely focused on Song Wanning and the young master of the demon clan.

"Wow, these two are really freaks, so composed at such a young age..."

"Just what kind of freak is that young demon lord? Not only is his alchemy skill superb, but his cultivation is also unparalleled, far surpassing ours..."

"Although he is a member of the demon race, I have to admit that he is truly outstanding!"

"Yeah, it's true, comparing yourself to others is just awful!"

"Hey, you all just think he's a pervert, but you don't know that Song Wanning is also a complete pervert. She's an ascended cultivator from the lower realm!"

"And in just one or two years, they've advanced in several stages..."

"What? Only ascended a year or two ago?? Really?"

"That's for sure. I just heard from someone from the Eastern Region that this person was hunted down by the Medicine King Sect as soon as he ascended to immortality..."

"Hiss!!! Not only did they evade the pursuit, but they're now dominating the Medicine King Sect disciples. This is just too... satisfying!"

One disciple's eyes lit up; such a legendary figure is a role model for us all.

"you do not say……"

People might feel jealousy towards ordinary strong individuals.

But people don't feel any desire to compare themselves to the truly strong; they only feel admiration and respect for them.

Wu Qingfeng's expression became increasingly interesting as he listened to the crowd's discussions.

But he knew he couldn't get angry; he had to stay calm.

What good is being a genius?
As long as she doesn't grow stronger, she's destined to be a dead soul under my command!

"Look, they're about to succeed!!" With a cry of surprise, Song Wanning and the young master of the demon clan on the platform simultaneously opened the furnace lid.

The two exchanged a knowing glance, their eyes filled with fighting spirit, and then they smiled in unison.

Here, they don't need to worry about their stances; they're simply happy to have met an evenly matched opponent.

The manager leaned over to take a look, his eyes widened in surprise as he stared at the two of them, his fingertips trembling slightly.

He looked up at the city lord and nodded silently.

The city lord sat up straight in surprise. She had originally intended to test everyone's potential, but she hadn't expected these two to complete the task so easily.

"Hehe... This reminds me of a saying."

A bitter smile appeared on her lips as she looked at Huo Jinchuan.

"In the face of absolute talent, no amount of effort is worth mentioning."

These two are so young, and they have to balance cultivation with their studies, so their time for delving into alchemy must be extremely limited...

This is absolutely extraordinary talent.

Huo Jinchuan twirled the teacup in his hand, a deep meaning flashing in his eyes.

"What the city lord says is absolutely right."

...

The third round of competition has ended.

The four of them caused an explosion in the furnace; three of them were reduced to dregs, and the other two produced worthless pills.

Xiao Heyun managed to refine a single pill, which was of low grade, but the success of the refinement earned him a place in the top three.

However, Song Wanning and the young master of the demon clan still managed to refine a top-grade pill, and naturally advanced to the next round.

"It's over, it's over..."

The two disciples of the Medicine King Sect stared blankly at the discarded pills in the furnace, almost losing their balance.

Their eyes were red and they couldn't believe they had lost so badly, and hadn't even made it into the top three!
The harsh words they uttered before have now become a complete joke.

They stared stiffly at the audience below, and when their eyes met Wu Qingfeng's, they couldn't help but tremble.

The look on their faces, as if they were about to devour someone, sent a chill down their spines.

Oh no, forget about the reward, I'll definitely be punished when I get back!
This was the most crushing defeat ever suffered by the Medicine King Sect...

They didn't even dare to go back and face the gazes of the sect disciples...

"The results of the third round are in: Song Wanning, the young master of the Demon Clan and the Ancient Cold Sect, and Xiao Heyun of the Azure Cloud Sect have advanced to the finals!"

Now that the three have secured their qualification to enter the Central Domain, all that remains is to determine a winner.

Although it's said to be three people, everyone knows that it's actually a battle between Song Wanning and the young master of the Demon Clan.

The three stayed on the stone platform to rest and replenish their spiritual energy, while the others gradually left the arena.

Two disciples from the Medicine King Sect walked hesitantly to Wu Qingfeng. Although they had made it to the third round, their results seemed to be worse than those of the disciple who had been eliminated earlier.

At least he wasn't being glared at by Wu Qingfeng with a murderous look.

The two flinched, filled with boundless fear.

"Get to the back."

Wu Qingfeng practically gritted his teeth, wishing he could rush up and compete with Song Wanning himself.

"Yes……"

The disciples, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, quickly ran to the back to hide, no longer daring to get in his way.

However, looking at Song Wanning on the stage, they couldn't help but feel envious and jealous.

They should have been the ones to win... If it weren't for the unexpected turn of events with Song Wanning, how could the competition have been set up to be about rank nine pills?
These are all things Song Wanning owes them!
The three exchanged a glance, each seeing ruthlessness in the other's eyes.
