Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

At this moment, in the martial arts arena atop the Five Lotus Mountain, Ao Cheng, who had been staring intently at the two on stage with a flushed face, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and sneezed loudly.

“Achoo!”

Sniffing his nose, Ao Cheng raised an eyebrow: “I wonder which woman is thinking about this young master. Is it Hong, Golden Lotus, or the long lost Little Yan Er?”

“Hmm, I must visit Tianyuan City after returning from this trip. I miss her so much…

However, Ao Cheng quickly discarded his messy thoughts and returned his excited gaze to the stage.

Both competitors had their own alchemical stoves set up in front of them. The excellent stoves had been provided by Kong Yuhuai, using his status as a holy child.

People stood by, ready to provide them with the spiritual medicine they needed for alchemy.

Unlike the harmonious atmosphere between the competitors, chaos reigned among the thousands of spectators below the stage. Various taunting and offensive remarks were constantly emerging from the crowd.

“What makes you think you’re qualified to challenge our holy son?”

“Just scram! You’re just in the Qi refining phase, and you dare to conduct alchemy. This is a joke, isn’t it?”

“If you can beat our holy son today, I’ll kneel down and call you father.”

“Not only will I call you dad, I’ll eat shit here.”

“Useless trash, just get out of here, you are absolutely not worthy of being our holy son’s opponent.”

Jiang Xiaobai remained undisturbed by the frenzy. In fact, he seemed quite amused by it all.

Seriously, how could this small spectacle compare to the grand wedding he had witnessed at Dragon Valley?

It was nothing, and so Jiang Xiaobai simply ignored it.

“Brother Jiang, how would you like to compete in alchemy skills?” Kong Yuhuai asked in a casual tone.

Jiang Xiaobai raised his eyebrows: “What do you suggest?”

Kong Yuhuai pondered for a moment, then slowly replied, “I can sense that your alchemical skills are at least at the level of a top-grade alchemist, and at this stage, you can make pretty much any kind of pill.”

“How about we compete on the potency of our pills? I can invite the elders of the Five Lotus Mountain to judge. What do you think, Brother Jiang?”

Kong Yuhuai’s suggestion was quite good. The potency of a pill is a comprehensive measurement of an alchemist’s strength. This includes not only control over the pill’s medical power but also understanding of the Dao of pills.

It involves a lot, and is the basic ability needed for an alchemist.

Of course, the speed of concoction also plays a significant role in winning.

After all, if it takes 10 minutes for you to make a pill and it takes me 5 minutes to make the same pill, it proves that my understanding of alchemy is superior to yours. This is not something that can be improved just by practice.

“Fine. ”

Seeing that Jiang Xiaobai agreed, Kong Yuhuai gave a firm nod: “Then, the best out of three rounds. The pills we will be making are the Foundation Establishment Pill, Spirit Promotion Pill, and Bone Tempering Pill, does that sound good?”

These three kinds of pills are all very basic and highly demanded in the cultivation world.

“No problem with that.” Jiang Xiaobai had no objections.

As a result, Kong Yuhuai instructed some people off stage to prepare the needed ingredients for the alchemy contest and to summon the elders of Five Lotus Mountain as judges.

During the waiting period, the mockery from the crowd continued. Nobody believed that Jiang Xiaobai could win.

“Ah Cheng, your friend is out of his mind. Even if he’s a top-grade alchemist, so what? Can he be better than our holy son?”

Xu Nianliang sneered: “And he dares to compete in public, isn’t he just courting humiliation

“You don’t understand shit about it. My friend is formidable and I’m sure much more capable than your holy son.” Ao Cheng scoffed.

“Huh, dare to belittle our holy son?”

“So what if I do?”

“Why don’t we make a bet then, if your friend can beat our Holy son even once, I will alchemize any pill you need free of charge in the future?” Xu Nianliang’s face bore a confident smile, he had absolute faith in their Holy Son.

Ao Cheng snorted: “What if he loses?”

“I won’t demand too much either. Since you said you wanted to invest in me, why don’t you just give me an extra hundred high-grade spiritual stones every month?”

For Ao Cheng, this wasn’t a bad deal at all. He would only need to pay an extra hundred high-grade spiritual stones each month, which wasn’t even enough for a lavish visit to the Floral Building.

“Deal!”

Having said that, Ao Cheng looked towards the stage and shouted: “Jiang Xiaobai, go for it! Trample that pretty boy hard! You must win! I will give you tons of benefits when we return if you do!”

His voice was so loud that it drowned out hundreds of others around him, causing quite a few people to hear his derogatory words towards Kong Yuhuai.

“What the hell, did you just call our Holy Son a pretty boy?” “Brothers, what should we do if someone insults our Holy Son?”

“We cannot let it slide, we must beat the hell out of him!”

The crowd suddenly erupted into chaos. Many wanted to charge at Ao Cheng and teach him a lesson. Seeing this, Ao Cheng smirked and released his Late Infant Stage aura.

As alchemists, those who choose to build their base on Five Lotus Mountain are all passionate about alchemy. They have put nearly all their energy into studying alchemy, with no avail or interest to practice martial arts.

As a result, their general strength isn’t high. Ao Cheng’s Late Infant Stage strength was enough to break their heads.

“Humph, fragile as twigs, your skinny arms and legs. No need to say more, I will take on any numbers of you.” Ao Cheng looked smug.

“Really?”

A composed voice came from behind him.

Speaking without thinking, Ao Cheng responded, “Of course, in front of these guys, I…”

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly stiffened.

“Why did you stop talking?”

Ao Yan spoke coldly, “You seemed quite capable just a moment ago, why are you silent now?”

Swallowing hard, Ao Cheng turned his head to speak, but Ao Yan grabbed his hair and twisted his ear.

“Ouch! It hurts, let go of my ear, we’re in public!” Ao Cheng hollered.

“Oh, so you’re aware that there are a lot of people around and we’re at Five Lotus Mountain. Are you treating this like we’re in Dragon Valley?”

Ao Yan scolded, “You dare to cause trouble at Five Lotus Mountain. If you really stir up trouble here, not even your ancestors can save you!”

Ao Cheng’s arrogant demeanor was completely gone now, replaced by a docile demeanor like that of a scared rabbit. He didn’t dare to even take a breath.

The crowd at the side watched with satisfaction!

After scolding Ao Cheng, Ao Yan turned her gaze to the stage, and saw that Jiang Xiaobai was chatting and laughing with Kong Yuhuai. The way they were behaving made them look like old friends who had known each other for many years, huh?

The needed spiritual medicine for the alchemy had been prepared and delivered to Jiang and Kong beside the stage, and the elder judges had also taken their positions.

The alchemy contest began!
