The two days passed by in a flash.
In the past two days, the most heated discussion in the entire medicine tower was not Feng Yugui's fight, but Mu Qingge's fight with Song Yu.
As a result, when the first fight, which should have been very exciting, was held, the onlookers were somewhat less interested.
After all, the PK between an intermediate alchemist and an intermediate alchemist is really nothing to watch.
The only reason that attracts everyone here is to see if Feng Yugui can refine high-level elixirs as rumored!
In the Dan Dan battle arena, Feng Yugui stood opposite the alchemist who challenged him.
In front of both of them, a long table was placed, and a pill furnace was placed beside the table.
On the long table, there are some tools needed in the alchemy process.
Surrounding the arena are stands, large enough to accommodate thousands of people. It's a pity that the people present now are only a few hundred people.
Such a deserted scene made Feng Yugui's eyes darken as he just stepped onto the ring, and his hatred for Mu Qingge deepened.
Among the crowd in the stands, Mu Qingge was with the Wei brothers and sisters, as well as Shui Ling and Fu Tianlong. What was strange was that the other five people who lived together were also sitting nearby with them.
Wei Guanguan secretly glanced back and whispered in Mu Qingge's ear: "These five guys have been appearing near us in the past two days. Is it possible that they are afraid that you will cheat during the alchemy battle?"
Mu Qingge raised the corner of her mouth and said calmly, "It's okay, let them go."
Wei Guanguan curled his lips and muttered: "We'll see what they say when you win!"
"Mu Ge, when is the elixir fight between you and that Song Yu?" Shui Ling suddenly asked.
When the fight was scheduled that day, Mu Qingge only replied that it would be after Feng Yugui competed, and the specific time did not seem to be finalized.
Mu Qingge smiled lightly and replied: "Tomorrow."
"It is estimated that the number of people watching tomorrow will definitely be more than today." Shui Ling said with a smile.
Wei Qi said dissatisfied: "What is an estimate? It's a certainty!"
"That's right! Mu Ge, we are waiting for you to completely torture your opponent!" Wei Guanguan said excitedly.
"Mu Ge, I also hope you will shine." Even Fu Tianlong, who had been reluctant to talk to Mu Qingge, suddenly said this.
As soon as he said this, he immediately aroused surprise from several other people.
But Mu Qingge just glanced at him lightly, and nodded to him calmly with clear eyes.
Fu Tianlong looked away, but no one could see the pill hidden in his sleeve that he pinched tightly.
Feng Yugui secretly gave this pill to him last night and asked him to find an opportunity to give it to Mu Qingge before she entered the ring. He also said that this elixir melts when it comes into contact with water and is colorless and odorless, making it difficult for people to detect.
Fu Tianlong didn't know what the elixir did.
However, Fu Tianlong, who had drugged Mu Qingge once, was hesitant about this.
Therefore, he has been holding this pill in his palm and has not given it out yet.
In the ring, Feng Yugui's opponent has appeared. As soon as the two arrived, the Dan battle began immediately. After the two of them bowed to each other, they wrote down the names and quantities of the medicinal materials they needed on the white paper.
After they finished writing, they handed it over to the medicine boy in charge of the ring to prepare it.
While waiting, Feng Yugui glanced at the surrounding stands and easily locked onto Mu Qingge's seat. A cold smile flashed across his lips.
The excitement and determination in his eyes made Mu Qingge squint his eyes.
Withdrawing his eyes, Feng Yugui felt relieved as he thought of the conversation with Diao Yuan that day.
That day, after he told Diao Yuan that Mu Qingge might be able to refine high-grade elixirs, Diao Yuan did change his attitude towards him.
After that, he gave him an elixir, saying that it could prevent his spiritual consciousness from concentrating when refining the elixir, and asked him to find a way to give it to Mu Qingge. After that, when Mu Qingge failed to fight the elixir, he was When recommended to the dean.
This promise gave Feng Yugui no need to hesitate at all.
Now, he was already looking forward to seeing Mu Qingge fail, panic, and be ridiculed by countless people.
"Mu Ge, when the time comes when you can't even concentrate your spiritual consciousness, how can you refine high-level elixirs? I'm afraid it will be difficult to even refine low-level elixirs! Do you still dare to watch my jokes today? Today , I am destined to be the center of attention, and you are destined to be the joke of tomorrow." Feng Yugui said viciously in his heart.
It would be best to leave this matter to Fu Tianlong, because they are the least alert to Fu Tianlong, and for the sake of the woman named Shui Ling, he will definitely try his best to make Mu Qingge look embarrassed or even drive her away.
Feng Yugui sneered, once again admiring his original decision.
If there had not been a cooperation agreement with Fu Tianlong that day, today's matter might not have been solved so easily.
In the stands, Wei Guanguan said to Wei Qi: "I see that Feng Yugui has some bad intentions. Look at how cunningly he smiles!"
When these words fell into Fu Tianlong's ears, his eyes flashed and his hand holding the elixir tightened a little tighter.
"Tianlong, are you okay?" Fu Tianlong's strangeness made the water spirit around him notice.
Fu Tianlong glanced at her, quickly shifted his gaze, and said in a low voice: "No."
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Shuiling was confused but didn't continue to ask.
Fu Tianlong turned his head and seemed to be watching every move on the ring. Mu Qingge's calm eyes fell on his profile, but she was thoughtful.
…
Soon, the medicine boy who was responsible for preparing the medicinal materials came back.
They prepared three copies of the required medicinal materials.
Because when refining elixirs, they often fail midway, so during the elixir fighting process, three quantities of medicinal materials are usually prepared. As long as one refining is successful, it is considered a success. On the contrary, if all three medicinal materials fail in refining, it will be judged as a failure.
After the medicinal materials were prepared, Feng Yugui's opponent said to him: "Junior Brother Feng, please."
"Senior brother, please." Feng Yugui said.
The two of them were polite and then began to lower their heads and prepare for the first steps of refining the elixir.
Because the medicinal materials were taken from the medicinal material warehouse in the medicine tower, they did not have to sort them out. You only need to weigh it and grind it to start making elixirs.
The surroundings were quiet, and watching Doudan didn't have the same visual impact as other arena games.
Moreover, the process is relatively boring.
Fortunately, the audience here are all Medicine Pagoda disciples and have long been accustomed to such waiting, so there were no whispers.
After watching for a while, Wei Qi suddenly frowned and said strangely: "Why do I look at Feng Yugui's opponent? He looks decadent and unwilling, as if he has lost."
As soon as his words came out, Wei Guanguan's interest was immediately aroused, and she leaned out half of her body to carefully observe Feng Yugui's opponent.
Even Mu Qingge's eyes fell on that person.
"It's true! I wouldn't think it even if you didn't tell me, but now that I look at it carefully, it does seem like I just dealt with it casually." Wei Guanguan said.
Shui Ling said doubtfully: "But didn't he propose the fight first? Feng Yugui's side is the one being challenged."
Mu Qingge looked at it for a while and then said to a few people, "Let's continue reading first."
As soon as these words came out, the three of them fell silent and stared at the competition on the ring, not wanting to miss a single detail.
"oops!"
Suddenly, there was a sound of regret among the crowd.
Several people looked over and saw that Feng Yugui's opponent had just thrown the ground medicine powder into the alchemy furnace, and a stream of anxious black smoke came out of the alchemy furnace.
Obviously, his first attempt at alchemy failed.
Mu Qingge stared at the man's face and saw that his expression changed, but there was no surprise in his eyes.
It could be thought that he was calm, but it could also be understood that he already knew the outcome. Therefore, there is not much fluctuation in the eyes.
A hint of amusement rose in Mu Qingge's eyes: "This fight is starting to be interesting."
"What did you say, Mu Ge?" Wei Guanguan didn't hear Mu Qingge's murmur clearly and turned around to ask.
Mu Qingge grinned and said pointedly: "I hope that senior brother will not miss again this time."
Wei Guanguan nodded without knowing why: "I also hope he wins, so as to dampen Feng Yugui's arrogance."
"Let's watch the game." Mu Qingge raised her chin.
Wei Guanguan nodded and turned his attention to the arena.
After failing for the first time, as a challenger, he started preparing the second batch of medicinal materials again. At this time, Feng Yugui had already reached the process of refining in the alchemy furnace.
Soon, the challenger prepared the medicinal powder and threw it into the alchemy furnace again.
This time, there were no more accidents. The medicinal powder seemed to have stabilized in the alchemy furnace and began to gradually merge. On the other side, in Feng Yugui's elixir furnace, the elixir has begun to take shape, and it will be ready after a while.
An hour later, bursts of medicinal fragrance came from Feng Yugui's pill furnace.
"It's become a pill!"
"It actually happened in one go?"
"The elixir smells fragrant. I'm afraid it's an intermediate or high-grade elixir."
"You still haven't refined the high-level elixir? Didn't you say that he can refine the high-level elixir?"
"Hey, what do you think a high-level elixir is? Is it so easy to successfully refine it?"
"In this case, wouldn't Senior Brother Chen definitely lose?"
"That's not necessarily true. After the elixir is successfully refined, releasing it from the furnace is also the key. Maybe it fails again at the moment it is released from the furnace?"
"That's right, that's right!"
As the fragrance of the elixirs in Feng Yugui's elixir furnace became more and more intense, there were more and more comments in the stands.
It was only then that Mu Qingge knew that the senior brother who fought against Feng Yugui was named Chen.
"Look! It's ready!"
Someone yelled excitedly but carefully suppressed his voice, as if he was worried that his voice would be too loud and would affect the alchemist.
Feng Yugui slapped the wall of the alchemy furnace hard, and the lid of the alchemy furnace flicked upwards. The richer alchemy fragrance suddenly spread, layer by layer on the stands.
An orange-yellow pill shot up into the sky. Feng Yugui stretched out his hand and grabbed it in his palm.
I don't know if it was influenced by Feng Yugui's elixir refinement. At the same time, there was a muffled sound from the elixir furnace opposite, and a smelly black smoke came out of the elixir furnace again.
"Why did it fail again?"
"What did Senior Brother Chen do? He failed twice in a row today!"
There were whispers among the crowd.
Senior Brother Chen's face turned blue and he was obviously not in a good mood.
On the other hand, Feng Yugui already held the prepared elixir in his hand. Spreading it out in his hand, he seemed to want to show it to the audience in the stands. His expression was filled with pride and his eyes were very proud.
"Hey, look at the quality of the elixir, I'm afraid it's mid-level."
"Hey, what's so strange about this? I came here to see high-level elixirs, but I made something like this."
The sound of discussion floated into Feng Yugui's ears, causing his originally proud expression to suddenly freeze and his eyes to look at the speaker coldly.
Faintly retracting his eyes, Feng Yugui looked at Senior Brother Chen opposite him, and said with a hooked smile: "Senior Brother, I have already completed the elixir. You must cherish this last chance."
There was a trace of hatred in Senior Brother Chen's eyes, but it quickly dissipated.
Facing Feng Yugui's teasing, he could only say in a low voice: "Thank you, junior brother, for reminding me."
After that, he started preparing the last medicinal ingredient again as if he was not affected.
"He actually failed again. His qualifications as an intermediate alchemist are fake, right?" Wei Guanguan retracted his leaning body in disappointment and leaned on the back of his chair.
"Don't talk nonsense. The evaluation of the alchemist in the medicine tower is very strict. How could he cheat? Besides, if he really cheated, how could he dare to jump out and challenge him knowing his level?" Wei Qi retorted.
"Then why does he keep failing? That insidious guy Feng Yugui succeeded once!" Wei Guanguan said angrily.
Wei Qi couldn't answer and could only scratch his head and said: "Maybe... maybe he is unlucky today?"
Unlucky
This word fell in Mu Qingge's ears, causing her to sneer.
I have to say, it is indeed quite unlucky.
She had heard before that the person who challenged Feng Yugui seemed to be a follower of Diao Yuan. This challenge was actually a test issued by Diao Yuan.
However, in the actual competition, the opponent failed one after another, which was unusual.
The elixir refined by the two men was announced to the public before the medicine boy took the elixir just now. These two kinds of elixirs are not difficult to refine. Logically speaking, a person who has been worshiping in the medicine tower for many years and is an intermediate alchemy master will never make such a mistake.
If that's the case, it's intentional.
Lose the game on purpose
But why
Mu Qingge frowned slightly, as if he couldn't figure out why this Dan Dan battle, which would disgrace Feng Yugui, had such a big turn.
'I'm afraid there's only one person who can make Senior Brother Chen lose the game on purpose, but why did that person suddenly give up the idea of testing and help Feng Yugui? Mu Qingge pondered in her heart. The truth has been revealed to her, but there are still many things hidden in the fog.
On the ring, Feng Yugui had finished the elixir and stood aside waiting for Senior Brother Chen's last chance.
Originally, everyone thought that they should be able to see the elixir refined by Senior Brother Chen this time.
But unexpectedly, Senior Brother Chen failed again when he put the powder into the alchemy furnace.
Three consecutive attempts to refine elixirs all ended in failure, which immediately provoked bursts of boos from the stands.
Feng Yugui's expression became proud again, and he cupped his hands and said, "Senior Brother Chen, I accept the concession."
Senior Brother Chen's expression was extremely ugly. Amidst the boos from all around, he said in a low voice: "I underestimated my junior brother's strength. I was also impetuous and wanted to challenge the best intermediate-level elixir. In this elixir battle, I am convinced that I lost."
As soon as he said this, everyone understood.
It turns out that Senior Brother Chen was overly pursuing the quality of the elixir, which led to successive failures.
His words almost dispelled everyone's doubts about the outcome of this competition, and they slowly accepted this fact.
However, Mu Qingge didn't believe this explanation.
"Okay, now the result is clear at a glance. However, as a rule, as a notary, I still want to check the elixir refined by Feng Yugui." The elder of Yaota, who was in charge of the Dan Dan Arena, stepped forward and said loudly.
Feng Yugui nonchalantly handed the elixir in his hand to the elder. The elder put it in his hand and examined it carefully before returning it to him. He nodded and said, "Yes, it's an intermediate-grade Pouling elixir. In this battle of elixirs, Phoenix returns to victory!"
The result was announced, but there was no violent reaction from the stands. Everyone stood up and dispersed. It seemed that he was very disappointed with this battle.
When Feng Yugui saw this scene, his face suddenly became gloomy and ugly.
He won, but Senior Brother Chen, who was fighting against him, was not on the popularity list. Therefore, even if he won, he would not get any benefits except fame.
But at this moment, he felt as if he hadn't even gained fame.
"If I had known that today would be so boring, I might as well come see Dou Dan tomorrow."
"Yes, that's right. Tomorrow's Dou Dan will be Song Yu, who is ranked eighth on the popularity list, challenging newcomer Mu Ge. The most important thing is that Mu Ge is still a low-level alchemist, but he has spiritual strength that surpasses senior brother Mei. Such a contrast I wonder if there will be a counterattack!”
"I'm afraid a counterattack is unlikely. Didn't Senior Brother Mei say that the strength of spiritual consciousness represents a person's talent, but it does not represent his current strength. Maybe Junior Brother Mu has just come into contact with alchemy?"
"In short, even if the outcome has been determined, it will be more exciting than today. Let alone Senior Brother Song Yu's dazzling posture when refining alchemy, I'm afraid Senior Brother Mei will also be present."
"What? Will Senior Brother Mei be there? Is your news unreliable? Senior Brother Mei has always been a reclusive person."
"Hmph, you also said that Senior Brother Mei lives a simple life, but he came forward for Junior Brother Mu. Anyway, I think there is a high chance that Senior Brother Mei will attend tomorrow."
"Wouldn't this mean that a lot of people will come tomorrow? No, we have to come early tomorrow to reserve a seat!"
The discussion that should have belonged to Feng Yugui's victory was replaced by Mu Qingge's fight for the pill tomorrow.
These words reached Feng Yugui's ears piecemeal, causing his handsome facial features to gradually become distorted.
…
At night, the medicine tower seems particularly peaceful.
The Medicine Pagoda Branch, which was originally built outside the Forest of Dreams, could hardly hear any other sounds except the chirping of insects at this moment.
Suddenly, a black shadow silently avoided the patrolling people and entered a silent forest.
As soon as he entered the woods, he lifted the hood of his black cloak and revealed his face.
Under the cold brilliance of the moonlight, it gradually emerged.
He showed his face, and the man who had been hiding behind a tree stood up and asked in a muffled voice: "Your Highness Feng San, why did you call me out again tonight?"
Such an attitude made Feng Yugui a little unhappy.
He frowned and said, "Brother Fu seems to dislike seeing me."
Fu Tianlong looked away silently, his attitude was self-evident.
Feng Yugui's eyes flashed with coldness.
Soon, it was covered up again.
He smiled at Fu Tianlong and said, "I called Brother Fu out this time because I wanted to ask Brother Fu if anyone named Mu could take the elixir I gave you."
Fu Tianlong's eyes moved slightly and he replied: "If you don't believe me, why should you leave it to me?"
Feng Yugui said with a smile: "How can you not believe in Brother Fu? It's just that the man named Mu is cunning and scheming. I'm just worried about Brother Fu."
"Don't worry." Fu Tianlong glanced at him lightly.
Feng Yugui's eyes dimmed and he said with a smile: "Okay, with Brother Fu's words, I feel relieved. When Mu's Dan battle is defeated tomorrow, our serious worries will be solved."
Fu Tianlong didn't seem to pay attention to this, but looked at Feng Yugui and said seriously: "You said that I helped you, and you would tell me how to make Shuiling change his mind."
"Why, hasn't Miss Shui Ling given up on that person named Mu recently?" Feng Yugui asked.
Fu Tianlong pursed his lips and said, "Although Shui Ling has been alienated from him in the past few days, I can feel that there is something on her mind."
Feng Yugui turned his eyes and said to Fu Tianlong: "Don't worry, brother Fu. If you help me, I will naturally fulfill my promise. When Mu loses tomorrow, you will still wait for me here at night. I will give you If you bring something good, you can make Miss Shui Ling yours completely. By then, are you still afraid that she will change her mind?"
After saying that, Feng Yugui put on his cloak again and escaped under the cover of the night.
Fu Tianlong stayed where he was, carefully comprehending what Feng Yu Gui had just said.
Suddenly, there was anger in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth angrily in the direction Feng Yugui left.
He understood the meaning of Feng Yugui's words, but how could he use such despicable methods on Shuiling
"Huh! They're not good things!" Fu Tianlong cursed bitterly, turned around and left the woods.
…
As soon as the day broke, countless disciples from the Medicine Pagoda hurried towards the Dan Dan Arena, as if they were afraid that if they were too late, they would lose the best seats.
There was still an hour before the appointed time, and the arena around Doudan Arena, which could accommodate thousands of people, was already overcrowded.
Not only were there more than a thousand seats left vacant. There were even many people who had not grabbed a seat and were standing in the gaps in the stands, unwilling to leave.
This huge crowd of people simply surpassed the scene yesterday when Feng Yu returned to Doudan by several blocks.
"Look! Isn't that Senior Sister Shang?"
"And Senior Sister Zhu!"
The most beautiful woman in the medicine tower, coupled with the already gorgeous Zhu Ling, simply became the biggest highlight of this competition.
The two beauties came hand in hand, were they here to see Song Yu or to see Muge
For a time, people speculated.
Hearing the discussions around her, Zhu Ling covered her lips and smiled softly, whispering to Shang Zisu: "I am cheering for Junior Brother Song. Who is Zisu for?"
Her teasing words did not elicit any reaction from Shang Zisu, who remained as cold as frost, as if he had just passed by by accident.
"Senior Brother Zhao is here too!"
There was commotion again among the crowd.
Zhao Nanxing's identity as the prince of the Yu Kingdom, coupled with his handsome appearance, always gave people a good impression. What's more, he is personable and polite, never puts on airs, does not pretend to be a prince, and is gentle and elegant.
It can be said that apart from rankings, Zhao Nanxing should be the most popular figure after Mei Zizhong.
As soon as he appeared, he immediately attracted the screams of countless medicine tower women.
For them, Mei Zizhong's status was too high, and they could only look up at her from across the sky and the earth. Zhao Nanxing, on the other hand, is close to the popularity and can make them think.
However, Zhao Nanxing turned a blind eye to these admiring women, quickly searched the crowd, and fixed his eyes on the cold figure next to Zhu Ling.
Zhao Nanxing smiled politely at the women around him and walked towards Shang Zisu.
Seeing this scene, countless women in the crowd lamented.
"Three of the top five people on the popularity list are actually among them!" Someone counted on their fingers and discovered in surprise.
Next to him, someone reminded: "What three? It's four. Didn't you see that Senior Brother Diao has arrived a long time ago?" After saying that, he pointed carefully in the distance, as if he was afraid of being seen by others.
The person who was reminded followed his directions and saw Diao Yuan, including Feng Yugui beside him. "Eh? Isn't this Feng Yugui the one who got lucky and won yesterday?"
"That's right. I originally thought that Senior Brother Chen was eager to win, which led to the failure of alchemy, and that Feng Yugui was in vain. However, today I found that he walked in with Senior Brother Diao, and even entered Senior Brother Diao's special stand. , I felt there was something fishy about it.”
"What's wrong?" someone asked curiously.
Seeing that his remarks attracted a lot of attention. The man said with some pride: "Hey, Senior Brother Chen is a member of Senior Brother Diao. He could challenge Feng Yugui, maybe it was Senior Brother Diao's secret instruction. Now that Senior Brother Chen has lost, Feng Yugui suddenly and Diao Senior brother is so close, do you think there is something fishy going on?"
Someone suddenly realized: "No wonder! I said that Senior Brother Chen has always been very stable in alchemy. Why was he so impatient yesterday?"
"Shh! We can just talk about these words, but we must not spread them out. Otherwise..." the man reminded.
Everyone seemed to see Diao Yuan's sinister look in his eyes, and they all shuddered, sitting upright and remaining silent.
In fact, there are no special seats set up in Doudan's stands.
However, I don’t know since when, Diao Yuan has dominated one side. No matter whether he comes back to watch Doudan or not, no one dares to sit in that seat.
Yesterday, Diao Yuan did not come, and the place was empty.
Today he appeared, and all the seats in that area were filled by him and the followers he brought.
Such a hot scene made Feng Yugui extremely jealous. Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ear.
"Are you sure that Mu Ge has taken the pill?" Diao Yuan asked Feng Yugui beside him.
Withdrawing his gaze from Zhao Nanxing and Shang Zisu, Feng Yugui nodded and said affirmatively: "That Fu Tianlong hates Mu Ge to the core, and his mind is simple. There are not so many twists and turns, so it is easy to use. In order to deal with Mu Qing Song, he can definitely do it.”
Diao Yuan glanced at him lightly and said calmly: "It's best this way."
After saying that, his eyes fell on the ring. At this time, the game time has not yet come and there is no one in the ring.
However, in the depths of Diao Yuan's eyes, countless calculations shone.
When he learned that Mu Qingge might be able to refine a high-level elixir, he knew that today's game was dangerous.
Advanced elixir
Nowadays, the only people who can refine high-level elixirs in the Medicine Pagoda, apart from his master, Dean Hua Cangshu, and Mei Zizhong’s master, Lou Chuanbai, the chief alchemist of the Medicine Pagoda Branch, are the only ones who have grown up with Lou Chuanbai and studied with him. Mei Zizhong, who makes alchemy.
Even he couldn't make high-level elixirs.
If Mu Qingge can really refine high-level elixirs, wouldn't it mean that he is even more powerful than him
Therefore, no matter what, he couldn't let Mu Qingge refine high-level elixirs, otherwise, not only would Song Yu lose, but he would also lose face.
There was a Mei Zizhong riding on his head, which already made him hate him to the bone. How can there be another Muge
Time passes slowly.
Finally, the time set for the appointment came.
The elder in charge of the Dou Dan Arena walked out again, still the same one from yesterday.
He stood on the ring, walked to the center of the ring, raised his hand to the noisy crowd, and the noise around him gradually calmed down.
"Everyone, the battle between Song Yu and Muge will begin soon. Please keep quiet during the viewing process so as not to affect the performance of the two players."
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings became quieter again.
Everyone present is a person who studies alchemy. They know better than anyone that absolute silence is needed during the alchemy process, so that you can concentrate without any distractions and refine a good elixir.
This kind of cooperation made the elder very satisfied.
He nodded and shouted loudly: "Song Yu, Mu Ge come to the ring!"
The protagonist finally appears!
The people in the stands began to look forward to it.
But some of them also expressed regret.
"Didn't you say that Senior Brother Mei cares about this new Junior Brother Mu? Why don't you see him coming?"
"How do I know? However, how can mortals like you and I be able to guess what a god-like figure like Senior Brother Mei is thinking?"
"Shut up and watch the game with peace of mind. I have an intuition that today's game will be very exciting!"
Somewhere in the ring, the Wei brothers and sisters were sitting together with Shui Ling, Fu Tianlong, and five other people who had a bet with Mu Qingge.
Wei Guanguan stared at the ring nervously and kept saying: "Why don't you come out? Why don't you come out?"
"Stop arguing, just watch quietly." Wei Qi couldn't help but pat her head.
Wei Guanguan was about to resist when he heard Shui Ling say: "Come out."
Immediately, Wei Guanguan gave up his revenge and focused on looking at the figure coming from outside the ring.
That handsome man with a dash of arrogance, a bit of casualness, and shocking beauty, who else could it be if he wasn't Mu Qingge? As soon as she appeared, she immediately attracted the attention of countless women in the stands.
"I didn't expect that our new junior brother is so handsome. Standing in front of him, I feel really ashamed!"
"Please don't hit me. Personally, I think this Junior Brother Mu is more handsome than Senior Brother Mei and Senior Brother Zhao."
"I think so!"
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
"So beautiful and handsome! I really want to give birth to a monkey for him!"
"Why don't you be such a nymphomaniac!" A male disciple beside him couldn't stand listening anymore and retorted.
"Go and play, ugly man!" Immediately, he was attacked by a group of female disciples.
He was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak again, and huddled aside depressedly and remained silent.
"Hey, I have the appearance, but I don't know what I am capable of?"
A female disciple snickered ambiguously: "What kind of ability are you talking about?"
"Bah, you little coward."
A group of excited female disciples formed a group and stood out in the quiet stands.
It wasn't until the elder of the ring coughed that the female disciples who were so fascinated by Mu Qingge's appearance began to restrain themselves and sit down quietly.
However, more than half of the attention originally focused on Zhao Nanxing has shifted to Mu Qingge.
The commotion in the stands did not affect Mu Qingge and Song Yu.
The two met under the ring, looked at each other, and then boarded the ring.
Standing on the circular arena, feeling the gazes of thousands of people, Mu Qingge sighed in her heart. The world is so strange. Yesterday, she was sitting in the stands and watching. Today, she was standing in the ring, letting everyone comment.
"Junior Brother Mu, you are well." Song Yu's lips curved slightly, with a hint of contempt in them.
Mu Qingge smiled calmly: "Senior Brother Song is still the same as when we met a few days ago." In his words, he mocked Song Yu for not making any progress in the past few days.
After hearing the meaning of her words, Song Yu's face changed slightly and he snorted coldly: "I can only talk quickly."
"Both each other!" Mu Qingge laughed.
This casual and indifferent appearance attracted the pink stars of countless female disciples.
Zhu Ling looked at Shang Zisu and said intentionally or unintentionally: "Junior Brother Mu is quite brave, and his demeanor of neither being humble nor arrogant is indeed a bit charming." After saying that, her eyes swept over Zhao Nanxing.
Feeling the gaze, Zhao Nanxing just lowered his eyes and smiled, not caring.
And Shang Zisu didn't respond at all, as if he had never heard Zhu Ling's words.
The two people's reactions did not make Zhu Ling feel embarrassed.
Instead, she covered her lips and smiled and said: "I think if Junior Brother Mu can win today, he will not only replace Song Yu's position, but also become the target of the female disciples in the tower. This will be a big relief for Senior Brother Mei and Senior Brother Zhao. Less burden."
Shang Zisu's eyes flashed, but he still said nothing.
Zhao Nanxing glanced at Shang Zisu and smiled at Zhu Ling: "If this is really the case, I would like to thank this Junior Brother Mu." After saying that, he looked at Shang Zisu's cold back, with a look in his eyes. Admiration is never hidden.
Zhu Ling smiled, glanced at Shang Zisu again, and finally focused on the ring.
In the ring, the game has begun.
Mu Qingge and Song Yu had to write down the names of the elixirs they wanted to refine, as well as the required medicines.
The two of them lowered their eyes and wrote for a while, and Song Yu wrote first.
He handed the white paper filled with words to the elder of the arena, and then waited with the latter for Mu Qingge to finish writing.
After waiting for a while, seeing that she had not finished writing, Song Yu couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Junior Brother Mu, it's just a low-level elixir, why do you need so many medicinal materials?"
Mu Qingge had just finished writing when she heard Song Yu's words. She immediately smiled and looked up at him: "Who said what I want to refine is a low-level elixir?"
After saying that, she handed the paper filled with medicinal materials to the elder of the arena.
That piece of paper was densely written, and there seemed to be hundreds of medicinal materials.
The elder of the arena took it and took a look, his eyes suddenly shrank, full of shock.
After reading it, he looked at Mu Qingge uncertainly. When he saw her smiling and nodding, he looked back in shock and asked.
The reaction of the ring elder fell in the eyes of Song Yu and the crowd in the stands. An unpleasant feeling suddenly arose in the former's heart, and people in the stands began to speculate as to what Mu Qingge had written that shocked the elders in the arena so much.
After calming down, the elder of the arena said loudly: "The elixir Song Yu wants to refine is the intermediate elixir Bi Ning Dan."
Intermediate elixirs are indeed at Song Yu's level. It depends on whether he can refine them to the highest quality. If it is refined, he will definitely be the victor today.
This was what most people thought after the elder of the arena revealed the name of the elixir made by Song Yu.
"What Mu Ge wants to refine is..." The elder of the arena suddenly stopped, arousing the interest of countless people. After a while, he announced in frustration: "The high-grade elixir Guiyuan Zhuyan Dan."
Wow!
Instantly, there was a huge sensation in the crowd.
Advanced elixir
A low-level alchemist actually wants to refine high-level elixirs? No kidding!
"Mu Ge actually wants to refine high-grade elixirs? Who does he think he is? Huh, it seems that we have won this bet, so he is going to leave the medicine tower!"
"It's really overestimating one's abilities!"
The five people who had a bet with Mu Qingge all laughed at him.
Wei Guanguan turned around and stared at them fiercely: "What do you know! If Mu Ge says it can be done, it will be done!"
However, he was met with contemptuous and mocking looks from several people.
Shui Ling pulled Wei Guanguan and comforted him: "Don't pay attention to them, the facts will give them a loud slap."
"High-end elixir? Haha, it's actually hidden so deeply." Diao Yuan's eyes were full of viciousness and cruelty.
Feng Yugui secretly looked at Diao Yuan's eyes and felt extremely happy. He seemed to have seen Mu Qingge become a lost dog after his failure in refining alchemy.
"It's actually the Guiyuan Zhuyan Pill? I begged Master to help me refine it for a long time, but he didn't want to. If Junior Brother Mu can really refine it, I really want to get close to him in the future." Zhu Ling touched her cheek , the charming eyes are full of interest.
No matter how shocked the people in the stands were, the elder of the ring had already ordered the medicine boy to get the medicinal materials.
While waiting, Song Yu had a sinister sneer on her face: "I really don't know whether to live or die."
"Thank you." Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows and smiled wildly.
Those frivolous and beautiful facial features gave Song Yu the urge to pounce on her and tear her apart.
Soon, the medicine boy who took the medicine hurried back.
During this period, many people crowded into the stands. It seems that he heard the news outside that Mu Qingge, as a low-level alchemist, was going to refine high-level elixirs, so he hurried here.
"Look, is that Senior Brother Mei?"
"Senior Brother Mei is really here!"
Suddenly, there was a commotion from behind the crowd.
Zhao Nanxing turned back and saw Mei Zizhong's tall and indifferent figure coming towards them elegantly and nimbly.
The appearance of Mei Zizhong made Zhao Nanxing frown. After he got closer, he asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, why are you here?" In his opinion, Mei Zizhong's previous appearance had already made Mu Qingge the center of attention. Now, if he comes again, it will only attract the attention of the master and the dean. The contradictions are getting more and more intense.
"I heard that Junior Brother Mu wanted to refine high-level elixirs, so I came here." Mei Zizhong replied calmly.
The elixir that Mu Qingge refined during the original assessment is now in his body. If she was refining an intermediate elixir, he thought it was very possible. However, challenging the high-level elixir made him have to worry about her.
Zhao Nanxing sighed in his heart and could only say: "Come when you come."
A trace of apology appeared in Mei Zizhong's eyes, and he understood what Zhao Nanxing meant. only…
"Senior Brother Mei, you are here too!" Zhu Ling looked shy when she saw Mei Zizhong.
Mei Zizhong just glanced at her lightly and said, "Junior Sister Zhu." After that, there was no interaction.
On the ring, Mu Qingge and Song Yu had already started grinding the medicinal powder.
Song Yu can be considered to be somewhat capable. Weighing and grinding are all done with spiritual power. The whole audience saw green light constantly shuttled between his fingers, and a pile of medicinal powders was piled on the table in front of him. A small pile of hills.
And what about Mu Qingge? Although no tools were used, it was just a simple matter of grabbing and pinching, and then the medicine powder was ready. It is impossible to see her current level of spiritual power.
Soon, Song Yu's first batch of medicinal powder had been ground, and the furnace was about to start making elixirs.
However, Mu Qingge only completed two-thirds of the grinding of the medicinal materials.
After careful inspection, Song Yu discovered that Mu Qingge had actually ground all the powders for the three occasions, and immediately sneered: "It seems that Junior Brother Mu is really foresighted. He knew that he would not succeed in the first attempt, so he simply prepared all the powders for the three times. .”
Unfortunately, his sarcastic words did not elicit any reaction from Mu Qingge.
When she started refining alchemy, she seemed to have entered another world. No matter what the outside world did, it could not affect her in the slightest.
Therefore, the arena elder's request for silence was not necessary for her.
When there was no response, Song Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty, and with a cold snort, he threw the powder into the furnace and started refining it. When he had successfully integrated the second medicinal powder, Mu Qingge's alchemy furnace was turned on.
As time passed by, there was silence in the stands, and an inexplicable tension lingered in the hearts of countless people.
Suddenly, a pop was heard, and a burst of black smoke came out of the alchemy furnace in front of Mu Qingge.
Suddenly, there was a cry of regret from the crowd.
"Let me tell you, how can high-level elixirs be so easy to refine? This guy is really trying to please everyone!" Someone gloated.
The five people who had bet with Mu Qingge had even more teasing eyes at this moment, and even said provocatively to Wei Guanguan and others: "If you don't have such a big head, don't wear such a big hat. It's really embarrassing!"
"What nonsense are you talking about! If you have the skills, go ahead and practice!" Wei Guanguan shot back.
One of the five people stopped him and said: "Okay, when the final result comes out, it will be clear at a glance."
Wei Guanguan snorted and turned around.
Zhu Ling looked at Mu Qingge's pill furnace, shook her head and said, "What a pity. I thought I wouldn't have to ask Master to refine the Returning Origin Pill!"
Zhao Nanxing and Mei Zizhong looked at each other, and they could see a trace of worry in each other's eyes.
On Diao Yuan's side, Feng Yugui saw Mu Qingge's failure, but he easily asked Diao Yuan to take credit: "Brother Diao, it seems to have worked."
He spoke in a cryptic manner, and I am afraid only Diao Yuan could understand it.
"puff!"
"Failed again!"
Amid everyone's discussion, Mu Qingge's second attempt seemed to have ended in failure from the beginning.
Two consecutive failures made Diao Yuan Yinzhe's eyes a little more joyful.
He nodded almost imperceptibly and said in a very low voice: "It did work."
