The Highest Bounty 28 The Ultimate Showdown of Geniuses

The two persons' style of refining was completely different. Sa Ze was brisk while Gu Ding was steady. Although the two were still far from becoming master pharmacologists, their unique styles had already begun to take shape.

The refining speed of Gu Ding's second tube had increased slightly, but it was still steady.

Likewise, Sa Ze's refining speed remained very fast, but when conduction individual steps, he slightly tapered his speed. The onlooking pharmacologists could feel that Sa Ze was more cautious than before, and that, this time, he really regarded Gu Ding as an opponent.

About ten minutes or so later, Sa Ze's second tube of medicine was formed. It was still a warm milky white and was obviously another perfect quality medicine. The moment he saw the color of the medicine, Sa Ze appeared to be slightly relieved. To consecutively make two bottles of perfect quality medicine was something that had never even been recorded before. Obviously, the pressure brought on by Gu Ding had allowed him to achieve extraordinary results.

It took less than a minute before Sa Ze's second medicine was refined. Meanwhile, the medicine in Gu Ding's hand also took shape, and the milky white liquid swayed gently in the fusion cup. The mood of the many onlookers rose.

"We Skyriver Sector now also have a genius!" In Skyriver Sector's Medicine King Valley, even the temporary residents were mostly natives of Skyriver Sector. Although all the information on Gu Ding seemed to be shrouded in mystery, and no one knew whether he was a native resident of Skyriver Sector, at least for now, he was accepting Sa Ze's challenge in place of Skyriver Sector. If he won, it would also represent a victory for Skyriver Sector.

Four bottles of perfect quality medicines appeared one after another. Most of the onlookers were seeing this for the first time. For many people, this was a moment they would never forget.

The competition between Gu Ding and Sa Ze continued.

Sa Ze made a mistake in refining the third bottle of medicine and the final medicine was refined to ultimate quality.

After him, Gu Ding refined another bottle of perfect quality medicine.

With three consecutive tubes of perfect quality medicines so far, the probability of Gu Ding refining perfect quality medicines remained at 100%, which was truly terrifying.

Everyone watched on with bated breath. Just how many tubes of perfect quality medicine could this thin-looking teenager continuously produce?

While refining the fourth medicine, Sa Ze had completely let go of his competitive mindset and instead began to seek to surpass himself and push himself to do better after each tube. His change in mentality immersed him thoroughly into the medicine refining process. Thus, the fourth tube of medicine was, once again, of perfect quality.

Gu Ding, as always, was steady. Even so, his refining speed had picked up slightly from when he was refining the third tube. Now, it was almost the same as Sa Ze. Not to mention, he had refined another perfect quality medicine.

Minutes and seconds passed as the crowd refused to disperse.

Sa Ze had continuously refined another four tubes of perfect quality medicines.

Meanwhile, Gu Ding maintained his frightening record by continuously refining eight tubes of perfect quality medicine. This was the first time this had ever happened in Medicine King Valley.

This surprised the onlooking pharmacologists, such that they could not shut their mouths. They were dying to know just how good Gu Ding could actually be.

Even so, some people raised their doubts. "Could this kid be cheating? He could be taking advantage of Medicine King Valley's data loophole."

"The possibility of him cheating is not very likely. Medicine King Valley is an independent network with very high-level protection. A security verification would be performed the first time you login. If there were hidden security accounts, access would be denied. Besides this, there is also a special intelligence unit inside Medicine King Valley which is said to maintain 80% of the functions of Skynet. The moment someone displays abnormal data, the special intelligence unit will get involved," explained an old pharmacist who was knowledgeable about Medicine King Valley.

"Whether or not one can make perfect quality medicine, you can probably infer by watching them go about their procedure. The young man has made no mistakes so far, and nobody can pick out any flaws. Even level pharmacologists strive to achieve this level."

Another old man, who was obviously a pharmacist, joined in the conversation.

After he refined the eighth bottle of medicine, Sa Ze's condition declined slightly, as was normal due to fatigue. Sa Ze knew that if he continued, his condition would only deteriorate. Thus, he decisively put down the materials in his hands meant for refining the ninth bottle of medicine and began to close his eyes to recuperate.

However, on Gu Ding's side, there was still no sign of stopping. On the contrary, he was refining faster and faster. His ninth tube of medicine was quickly refined, still of perfect quality, as he finally exceeded Sa Ze's refining speed.

Sa Ze resumed his work after resting for nearly ten minutes.

In the following one and a half hours, Gu Ding continuously refined eleven bottles of perfect quality speed enhancer. Sa Ze had refined eight tubes. Everyone grew a little numb.

The trial took more than three hours before they finally got the winner.

Gu Ding had 20 tubes of perfect quality speed enhancer whereas Sa Ze had 15 tubes of perfect quality, and 5 tubes of ultimate quality medicine. The victor of the bout was evident.

To have continuously refined twenty tubes of perfect quality medicine was unheard of in the entire history of pharmacology. Whether in the real world or in Medicine King Valley, no one had ever heard of such a thing.

"I lost." 

On the challenge stage, Sa Ze walked towards Gu Ding with a bitter smile on his face. He did his best, even surpassing his previous abilities, but still lost. It could only be said that the opponent was too strong for him, to the point that he had lost decisively.

"This victory is temporary. We won't know what will happen next time." 

Gu Ding grinned. Sa Ze was indeed a good opponent. If Sa Ze had not put the pressure on him, he was afraid he would not have performed so amazingly.

"Alright. This time I will go back and ask my teacher to give me some special training. When I think I'm ready, I will come to challenge you again." Sa Ze's fighting spirit started burning again.

The two of them did not know that the entire process of this more than three-hour competition had been photographed by some interested parties and placed in the public video region.

"Hey, this guy posted a new video." Modican, who was browsing the public video region, suddenly saw that the guy who had first uploaded the video of Gu Ding refining the perfect White Rhinoceros enhancer a few hours ago had now uploaded a new video. "The Ultimate Showdown Between Two Genius Pharmacologists?"

Modican, who started the video, recognized Sa Ze when he saw him, before seeing Gu Ding, who was his opponent. He watched it patiently but did not expect it to be more than three hours. After watching it, he exclaimed, "Men Ze really has a good apprentice, but who is the genius boy? Whose disciple is this? Anyway, I should show this video to Parma."

After the customary liking, Modican sent the video to Parma.

Parma opened the video and saw Gu Ding. After watching the whole video with a hint of curiosity, she became completely baffled. She did not expect Gu Ding's growth to be so rapid. It had only been a day or two since he had disappeared, and he had become a celebrity in Medicine King Valley. She also saw that that video already had gathered more than 2 million views.

"Teacher, this thin boy is the Gu Ding I mentioned to you." Dialing Modican's communicator, Parma surprised Modican with her first sentence. Gu Ding's identity had been bothering him the whole day. He had been wondering who this disciple was, but he did not expect this kid to be the self-taught Gu Ding.

"I'll go to Cerule later, please help me contact the kid and help me arrange a meeting." Modican raised his arm and sniffed his armpit. He shook his head in dissatisfaction. He should take a bath.

"Teacher, he is no longer in Cerule." Parma guessed that her teacher would want Gu Ding as his disciple. The video just now was enough for any level pharmacologist to want to snap up Gu Ding.

"What?!" Modican heard this and nearly flipped out, "Do you know where he went?"

"He drove off in a Kittyhawk Model yesterday and said that he wanted to become an interstellar pirate. As for where he went, he didn't say." 

Parma said this before suddenly stopping in her tracks. After thinking about it, she decided that teasing her teacher would be too unkind, so she continued, "However, I can contact him. I will ask him later to see where he will be staying, and then I will inform you."

"Okay, I'll wait for your news." After hanging up the call, Modican entered anxiously began to wait.
