People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

Chapter 473: The Dan Meeting Comes to an End

Although Xiao Ling successfully refined the eighth-grade nine-color elixir under the gaze of countless eyes, the outcome of this alchemy conference had actually already been decided in the minds of everyone with a discerning eye.

However, even if the final result is already obvious, the rules and procedures of the Alchemy Association must still be strictly followed in accordance with the established rules and proceed steadily.

After the initial climax of cheers that was like a tsunami, the atmosphere in the stadium gradually calmed down like the receding tide.

Although the discussions in the crowd were still going on and on, as heated as ever, the momentum that had almost blown the roof off at the beginning had quietly faded away.

The eyes of the entire audience turned to the judges' podium where Xuan Kongzi and others were.

At this moment, the alchemy meeting finally came to an end with the drumbeats at the end of the play.

Next, what everyone is looking forward to is the solemn moment of announcing the final result...

Under the focus of the whole audience, Xuan Kongzi on the high platform, who had just relaxed for a moment, now perked up again. He smiled slightly, and seemed to be very much looking forward to the upcoming moment.

Xuan Kongzi took a steady step forward, his gaze moving slowly across the sky, and finally, as if sensing something, he stopped on the tall, slender, pine-like young man.

The young man had a handsome face, and was incredibly young. Looking at this energetic face, Xuan Kongzi was filled with infinite emotion.

Although there is a big age gap between him and Xiao Ling, when it comes to attainments in alchemy, the two are on equal footing and can be considered peers.

However, whenever Xuan Kongzi thought of the fact that Xiao Ling and his apprentice were of the same age, an indescribable strange emotion would always surge in his heart.

Facing this young genius in alchemy, Xuan Kongzi's heart was filled with waves. For a moment, he was a little confused about how he should face and interact with him in the future.

This subtle psychological fluctuation made Xuan Kongzi, who had always been decisive and clear-minded, sigh softly in the depths of his heart.

After a brief silence, Xuan Kongzi's voice rang out like a huge bell at this moment. His voice was steady and powerful, easily penetrating the silence on the field and echoing in everyone's ears.

"At this critical moment that determines victory or defeat, I will not say any more. The might of the pill thunder has dissipated. Now is the time. All contestants, please take out the pills that you have poured your heart and soul into refining, and let their light shine in front of every colleague present."

As Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, the dozen or so contestants who were still standing on the stone platform hesitated for a moment, and then they gently raised their hands. Smooth and round pills slowly rose up, floated in front of them, and hovered in the air like shining stars.

Countless eyes were instantly attracted by these suspended pills. Nine of the pills were as shiny and warm as night pearls, emitting an alluring glow even in the sunlight.

These seventh-grade high-level elixirs would be enough to cause a frenzy of pursuit in any other occasion.

However, their brilliance did not completely steal everyone's attention at this moment, because above the nine pills, three pills emitting a faint spiritual mist were quietly suspended in the air. Their existence seemed to announce a higher level of alchemy achievement.

Although there are only slight differences in appearance between the seventh-grade and eighth-grade elixirs, even someone who knows nothing about alchemy can tell the significant difference between the two at a glance.

This difference stems from the spirituality contained in the elixir.

It is undeniable that seventh-grade elixirs are rich in energy; however, they are ultimately “dead elixirs” and lack that sense of agility.

However, the eighth-grade elixirs are completely different. They have developed their own spirituality. This kind of elixir can truly be called a "living elixir", or more precisely, a "spiritual elixir".

As soon as the three eighth-grade pills appeared, they seemed to have their own consciousness and subtly distanced themselves from each other.

Among these three pills, the pills refined by Cao Ying and Dan Chen seemed to be particularly close because of the relationship between their masters. The spiritual mist around them swirled gently, gradually interweaving a wonderful picture in the air.

Faintly, the mist condensed and transformed into the outlines of a fox and a rabbit, which were lifelike and seemed as if they would jump out at any time.

The spirituality of the eighth-grade elixir is indeed well-deserved. Not only do they have their own spirituality, but they can also condense into specific images on their own. This scene is amazing.

The crowd of onlookers cast curious glances at the three eighth-grade pills floating in the air.

For many people, this kind of spectacle is the first time they have ever seen it in their lives. The mystery and extraordinaryness of the eighth-grade elixir are perfectly interpreted at this moment.

Not far from the elixir refined by Cao Ying and Dan Chen, another eighth-grade elixir was quietly suspended, emitting a faint spiritual energy.

This pill belongs to the old monster Qinghua. It has the shape of a bear condensed on it, but it does not seem to have the intention of fighting with other pills. Instead, it is guarding its own territory.

It seemed to know that if a conflict really occurred, it would be difficult to contend with the two pills that exuded a fierce aura.

Although old man Qinghua is many times older than Danchen and Cao Ying, if you really count carefully, he is even much older than Yao Chen. Naturally, he is also much older than Xuankongzi, who is of the same generation as Yao Chen.

However, as the years passed, his alchemy skills did not improve much.

Although the pill he refined this time was indeed slightly better in quality than the simple eighth-grade three-color pill.

But compared with the eighth-grade four-color elixir refined by Cao Ying, a young disciple of Xuankongzi, the elixir of old man Qinghua is still much inferior. The gap between the two is obvious at a glance.

As these three eighth-grade elixir ingredients and the eighth-grade elixir complemented each other, Xiao Ling also chuckled, and then, he waved his hand casually, and the elixir in front of him responded, as if it was responding to a call, and was lightly released into the air by him.

In a flash, the pill cleverly changed its shape and turned back into its previous image of the Heavenly Demon Marten.

Compared with the animal shadows shown by the other three eighth-grade pills, the animal shape presented by this pill is a real entity.

Then, the Sky Demon Marten stepped lightly on the void. Its body was extremely nimble. With a slight leap, it floated like a gossamer and landed around the other three eighth-grade pills, keeping a distance of exactly one meter.

At this moment, an indescribable aura slowly spread out from its body. The aura was so powerful and mysterious that the other three eighth-grade pills seemed to feel an invisible pressure. They began to tremble and dared not make any rash moves.

The power of the Reincarnation Soul-shaping Pill that had been tempered by the Nine-Color Pill Thunder was far beyond the reach of the three pills that had only experienced the fourth-grade pill thunder at most. In terms of quality, there was a huge gap between them, like a chasm.

The value of a drop of blood released by the Dan beast formed by the nine-color Dan thunder is far greater than those elixirs. And the value of this elixir itself is so inestimable that it is not surprising to call it a "peerless divine elixir".

As these pills took shape, blinding rays of light suddenly burst out from within them, and as if summoned, they were arranged in a spectacular pyramid shape in the sky.

And at the top of the pyramid, a smart little mink leisurely stretched out its small paws and gently combed its hair. Every movement of its revealed an innate elegance and confidence.

At that moment, the dazzling light burst out in the sky like the rising sun at dawn, radiating light and illuminating the entire sky.

At this moment, everyone clearly felt what kind of amazing and pure energy was contained in that small pill.

Standing on the high platform, Xuan Kongzi glanced at the other elixirs that dared not resist at all under the pressure of the Samsara Soul-Shaping Pill, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

An eighth-grade elixir of the Nine-Colored Pill Thunder level is undoubtedly too much in this elixir world competition. It can be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack on other contestants.

Then, Xuan Kongzi slowly looked around. His voice was like an echo in the valley, loud and clear, full of unquestionable solemnity and authority. He solemnly announced:

"In the field of elixirs, spirituality is regarded as the most noble. At this moment, the most noble elixir in this alchemy conference has come out, and its refiner is the champion of this alchemy conference... He is Xiao Ling!"

After Xuan Kongzi's concise and powerful announcement, countless eyes instantly focused, like an invisible force, and all cast towards the stone platform.

After a brief silence, the spectators burst into enthusiastic cheers. The sound was like rolling thunder, deafening and shaking the entire venue again. The cheers were earth-shaking, as if to convey this joy to every corner.

Today, they witnessed what could be described as the most glorious elixir event in history. Xiao Ling, relying on his own strength, successfully refined the legendary nine-color eighth-grade elixir. The spectacular scene shocked everyone present. No one could surpass him, and no one dared to compare with him.

He won the crown of the Dan Association with absolute advantage and without any dispute, becoming a well-deserved champion.

This moment is not only his personal glory, but also a glorious milestone for the entire alchemy industry.

The champion of the Alchemy Contest was not only a glorious qualification, but also a symbol of the status of a peak powerhouse. All the champions of the Alchemy Contests of all generations, without exception, eventually became the top existences in this world.

This is enough to make everyone realize what amazing potential and future the young man standing tall has.

Being able to refine an eighth-grade, nine-color elixir at such a young age, even those who know nothing about elixirs can clearly feel the amazing talent of this young man.

In fact, it can also be said that it was not the title of Alchemy Association Champion that enhanced Xiao Ling's value. On the contrary, it was Xiao Ling's extraordinary talent and outstanding performance that greatly enhanced the weight of the title of Alchemy Association Champion.

In previous alchemy competitions, although eighth-grade elixirs were not unique, the birth of eighth-grade nine-color elixirs was an unprecedented event.

Everyone present couldn't help but start looking forward to Xiao Ling's future. Perhaps, the position of ninth-grade alchemist, which belongs only to the top of the alchemy world, is the pinnacle of achievement that he should eventually climb to.

Standing on the stone platform, Xiao Ling looked down at the bustling square below. He couldn't help but smile slightly.

How many people in this world can resist such a spectacular scene? Moreover, he himself is the protagonist of this feast. This feeling makes people feel excited and unable to control themselves.

His eyes were shining with pride and satisfaction, as if the whole world was cheering for him at this moment, and he was the one at the center of the storm.

Xiao Ling clenched his fists and looked up at the sky. He whispered in his heart, "Being the champion of the Alchemy Competition is just a coordinate on my path of growth. In the future, even this Douqi Continent will not be able to limit my steps..."

Then, Xiao Ling clenched his fists gently, his eyes passed through the noisy crowd and looked straight at the distant sky. In his heart, he said to himself silently,

"Being the champion of the Alchemy Contest is just a mark on my path of growth. In the future, even this vast Douqi Continent will not be able to restrain my steps... My journey will be to a more distant plane."

The other contestants and other people present couldn't help but look at Xiao Ling with envy, who was the center of attention.

At this moment, he is undoubtedly the brightest star in the city of Shengdan. No one can take away his glory. He deservedly becomes the most dazzling protagonist of the day.

The feeling of becoming the champion of the Danhui is an experience that many people dream of. Who doesn't want to truly stand at the top and feel the glory of being the center of attention?

However, they were well aware of the limitations of their own strength, and faced with Xiao Ling's extraordinary alchemy skills, they all lost willingly.

Under Xiao Ling's brilliance, although they felt envious, they also sincerely admitted that this champion's strength was indeed extraordinary and people had to admire him...

Cao Ying and Dan Chen followed closely the gaze of Xiao Ling, who was highly respected and admired by the crowd. For a moment, their eyes flashed with brilliant colors, and their sights seemed to be attracted by a magnet and could not be diverted for a long time.

For a man with such extraordinary talent and looks, which girl today would not have ripples in her heart?

"Yeah! Xiao Ling won the Alchemy Championship!"

Zi Yan excitedly stepped on the stool with her little feet, her body swaying gently as she cheered, her joy blooming like a flower in spring.

She held her hands to her cheeks, her eyes sparkling like stars, and cheered softly but enthusiastically.

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"As expected of a young master, you are always so outstanding. If I remember correctly, that nine-color eighth-grade pill thunder has already broken the highest record since the Pill Tower held the Pill Conference."

A hint of joy appeared on Qinglin's face, and her pride was beyond words, as if the glory was also her own achievement.

The other women were also extremely happy at this moment. They were all sincerely happy for Xiao Ling winning the championship in this alchemy meeting.

Even though everyone was already well aware of Xiao Ling's superb alchemy skills and had expected him to win the Alchemy Contest, when the moment really came, they still couldn't suppress their excitement, and the emotional fluctuations were difficult to hide.

Xun'er's beautiful eyes were fixed on Xiao Ling who was standing on the stone platform. Her eyes were flashing with bright lights, as bright as the starry sky.

Since arriving in Shengdan City, in order not to add any pressure to Xiao Ling, she had never asked him a single question about the Alchemy Association or alchemy techniques.

Although she knew in her heart that Xiao Ling's ability in alchemy was extraordinary, she could never have imagined that he had reached such an astonishing level at such a young age.

With such talent, he could be regarded as the best among the younger generation even among the Medicine Clan, one of the eight ancient clans famous for their alchemy skills, and few could rival him.

Although Xunxun'er knew in her heart how important her identity was in the ancient clan, it would indeed be a challenging path for Xiao Ling to win the consent of the clan elders.

However, Xiao Ling's outstanding performance in the alchemy meeting was undoubtedly a strong proof.

Although this may not be enough to immediately change the attitudes of the elders who once opposed their union and make them wholeheartedly agree and support this relationship, at least such an achievement is enough to temporarily shut up their critical mouths and curb their idea of ​​raising opposition again.

"As expected of you, Brother Xiao Ling. You have made such remarkable progress in just such a short time since we parted. Xun'er is really worried that one day she might be left far behind by you. It seems that I cannot relax at all in the future and must practice more diligently."

Xun'er stared at Xiao Ling's high-spirited figure, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly. With a hint of tenderness and admiration in her tone, she whispered to herself, "But if that day really comes, Xun'er will also be looking forward to it very much..."

……

The thunderous applause, like rolling spring thunder, lasted for nearly ten minutes before gradually calming down.

"Xiao Ling, you have already won the title of the Alchemy Conference. In the future, you will also become one of the potential giants of Danta..." Xuan Kongzi smiled and looked at Xiao Yan on the stone platform with gentle eyes. He said in a calm tone, "After that, don't forget to come to Danta. I have a few important things to discuss with you in detail."

As soon as Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, many eyes focused on Xiao Ling again. To this end, everyone did not have much controversy in their hearts, but felt that this was natural.

After all, with the strength Xiao Ling has shown so far, it would be truly incredible if he was not qualified to become one of the three candidates for Danta.

As everyone knows, the three giants of the contemporary Danta are all eighth-grade peak alchemists, and Xiao Ling refined nine-color eighth-grade elixirs in full view of the public. His superb alchemy skills are not necessarily inferior to those three giants.
