Chapter 28: Xiao Ling'er's Triumph
Chapter 28: Xiao Ling'er's Triumph
The third Divine Son of the Feather Clan and Huoyun begin their alchemy again.
However, after an intense battle, their murderous intentions linger, affecting their alchemy.
But with their solid skills, they manage to overcome the obstacle.
"The third Divine Son of the Feather Clan, Yu Mo, has crafted a Fifth Rank Pill—Phoenix Cry Pill, Second Grade."
"Huoyun: Fifth Rank Fire Control Pill, First Grade."
Huoyun's face paled slightly.
Yu Mo, however, smiled confidently, "Miss Huo, please accept my pill."
"Hmph! I was only affected by others; otherwise, I wouldn't have lost!" Huoyun was slightly dissatisfied but chose to accept reality without being too extreme.
Yu Mo, seeing this, was rather disdainful.
"Referee, will you announce the results?"
He looked at the Dao Convergence Realm Grand Cultivator, but there was little respect in his tone.
The cultivator's face remained unchanged, "The time has not yet come."
"Oh? Are these two ants capable of changing the rankings?"
"Rules are rules."
The referee's gaze turned cold.
As a Dao Convergence Realm Grand Cultivator, Yu Mo couldn't be too arrogant, so he coldly snorted and looked at the two, "Hurry up!"
A powerful aura pressed down on them.
"Ahhhh!"
As soon as the words fell, Tie Hanhan screamed, suddenly opening the furnace, "No, no, don't kill me, I'm done!"
"Condense!"
At the same time, Xiao Ling'er also pinched her fingers in a hand seal and shouted, condensing the pill!
Boom! The furnace lid flew up!
Nine pills soared from the furnace, emitting a blinding light that was hard to look at directly.
"What is this?!"
Everyone was shocked.
"Such dazzling pill light!"
"At least Seventh Rank, no, Eighth Rank!!!"
"It's an Eighth Rank Mystic Coagulation Pill. What a pity; if not for such a strong opponent, this girl might have competed for the top spot!"
"I remember her; wasn't she barely passing the first round with her Condensation Pills? How could she..."
"She's pretending to be weak!"
The crowd quickly realized the truth.
After all, they were all experienced in the 'Jianghu,' so they were familiar with such tactics. It was just that Xiao Ling'er had kept a low profile before, so they hadn't noticed until now.
At this moment, they couldn't remain in the dark any longer.
"Eighth Rank?"
Yu Mo narrowed his eyes, feeling the pressure. He had almost lost...
"Hmm? Wait!"
The pill light retracted, forming a circle of auras that condensed on the pill.
"No, it's not Eighth Rank!"
His face changed abruptly.
Huoyun's smile was ambiguous, "Ninth Rank..."
"Ninth Rank, Yu Mo, you've lost too!"
Boom!
Before they could calm down, a surprised exclamation came from the audience.
The crowd followed the sound, and they were shocked to see that 'Tie Hanhan,' the timid one, had also crafted a Ninth Rank Third Rank Mystic Coagulation Pill!
"Gasp!!!"
"A rarely seen Ninth Rank Pill, and it's a tie?"
"Could it be that Tie Hanhan is also pretending to be weak?"
They couldn't help but think so.
But as they looked closely, they saw Tie Hanhan's confused face, followed by excitement, "Ahhh, it's Ninth Rank! Heaven, my luck is too good! I'm going crazy..."
"What??"
Their faces twitched, and they doubted their own eyes.
They would rather believe that Tie Hanhan had incredible luck than that he was pretending to be weak.
"How do we decide the winner now?"
"How to decide? Of course, the Ninth Rank is first! Although it's only a Third Rank Pill, the Ninth Rank can greatly enhance the pill's properties, and Ninth Rank Pills are always in high demand. Their value is extraordinary!"
"The Fifth Rank Pill is of a higher rank, but for the pill to be considered 'qualified,' it should be Third Rank. First Rank is strictly a failed pill, and Second Rank is also inferior. Their value is not even as high as the herbs used..."
"Moreover, they both have excellent pill quantities, with one having nine pills and the other eight."
"However, the third Divine Son only refined one pill, and Huoyun'er also only managed one. As for their value, is there a need for further words?"
The crowd buzzed with excitement.
But Duan Qingyao had her own thoughts.
So...
Xiao Ling'er actually made the rankings, and she was even first, the top scorer?!
For a moment, she was almost overwhelmed with joy, but her expression quickly changed.
This might not be a good thing!
...
In the arena.
Yu Mo's smile froze and gradually faded, and then, murderous intent filled the air.
"You want to make a move?"
The Seventh Dao Convergence Realm Cultivator spoke indifferently, "If you wish to die, then give it a try."
"During the competition, if you make a move, it will be their own fault for seeking death. But now that the results are out and the competition is over, if you still want to act, it will be going against the rules of Hongwu Immortal City."
"Killing you, even the Feather Clan will have no words."
The meaning was clear, the Feather Clan wouldn't give face!
Yu Mo's expression grew even darker.
What did it mean that the Feather Clan had no words? He didn't believe it!
What could killing someone in Hongwu Immortal City do? They could easily find a scapegoat!
But...
The audience here numbered in the hundreds of millions. Under the watchful eyes of so many, if he really made a move, Hongwu Immortal City wouldn't allow him to find a scapegoat.
This involved the reputation of a Loose Immortal.
Loose Immortals face the Heavenly Tribulation every five hundred years, and no one can guarantee their survival. Therefore, theoretically speaking, Loose Immortals are all madmen!
Since they don't have many years left to live, if someone offends them, they might really fight without regard for their lives!
Face, for any strong cultivator, is of utmost importance.
Why bother causing conflict with a madman who doesn't have many years left?
"Forget it."
He turned and left, unwilling to stay any longer. Every moment he lingered, his face felt a few degrees more painful.
He didn't want the ranking either.
The Seventh Dao Convergence Realm Cultivator retracted his gaze.
"Since it's like this, Moonseizing Sect's Xiao Ling'er is first, the top scorer."
"Fan Jianqiang is second."
"Huoyun'er is third."
"As for fourth to tenth, they are all dead, gone."
His tone remained indifferent, carrying the arrogance of a powerful cultivator.
So what if you're the Feather Clan's third Divine Son? Since you want to leave, your ranking is forfeited.
As for the others, they truly were all dead.
Many spectators were left in disbelief.
"This is truly an upset..."
"Yu Mo and Huoyun'er, who everyone favored, actually didn't take first place. Instead, these two dark horses have shocked everyone."
"Fan Jianqiang, his luck is against the heavens. It's Xiao Ling'er who surprises us."
"From the Moonseizing Sect?!"
Speaking of the Moonseizing Sect, many spectators were astonished.
"I heard the Moonseizing Sect is in decline, their Dao Lineage is on the verge of destruction. How can they have a disciple with such heaven-defying alchemy talent?!"
"She must have been hiding her abilities before!"
"Indeed, we can't underestimate the Moonseizing Sect. Rumors can't be fully trusted!"
"After all, they were once at the peak, and even in their decline, their foundation is still astonishing!"
"But..."
"But what?"
"But, winning such prestige and the top scorer's reward, for the Moonseizing Sect, might not be a good thing~!"
The award ceremony had already begun, and as the storage bag was handed over to Xiao Ling'er, countless people's eyes lit up with greed, their hearts already making calculations.
