Sign In Ten Years, Then I Am Exposed By My Gorgeous Senior Novel - Chapter 136
Chapter 136: Doubt!
Standing at the front of the VIP seats, Elder Zhao looked at the boiling square. A long while later, he softly smiled and said, “Now, all the competitors, please enter your seats.”
Although the square was so boiling that it was difficult to hear the chimes of the bells, Elder Zhao’s soft laughter still resounded in everyone’s ears. From this, one could tell that this old man, who was about to die…was also extremely powerful.
Ye Chen looked at Elder Zhao. Although this old man was already in his eighties, he was an expert who had transcended the heavenly tribulation.
Ye Chen slowly walked to his seat.
Fourth Senior Sister also walked to the front of a stone platform.
Ye Chen did not care whether he won the competition or not. However, Ye Chen’s goal was to ensure that his Fourth Senior Sister would win the competition.
Although no one in the VIP seats had high hopes for his Fourth Senior Sister.
However, Ye Chen was very clear that no matter what, his Fourth Senior Sister was still a teacher of the Medicine Fairy 9.
Since she was called the Medicine Fairy, she was naturally much more powerful than these Tier 9 Alchemists. Therefore, Ye Chen felt that there was no problem for the world to beat these alchemists.
As for himself, he was completely here to protect his senior sister.
Although if Ye Chen were to become serious, he would probably be able to reach the level of a Tier 9 Alchemist, refining medicine was only Ye Chen’s sideline.
Ye Chen preferred to cultivate.
Becoming a powerful cultivator.
Ye Chen looked over and sized up everyone.
There were indeed quite a number of Tier 6 Alchemists. These should all be people fighting for the championship, but Ye Chen did not care at all.
No matter how they fought, it was impossible for them to be a match for his Fourth Senior Sister.
Chen Feng also sent his gaze over when Ye Chen withdrew his gaze. When he saw the bitter smile that had yet to disappear on the former’s face, he could not help but let out a low and cold laugh, he softly said, “Humph, you don’t even put Xuan Er in your eyes. Next, let me see how you will embarrass yourself in front of so many people…country bumpkin…”
Having received Song Yang’s extremely orthodox teachings, Chen Feng was extremely confident in this Grand Meeting. Hence, he wanted to become the champion of this Grand Meeting.
On the enormous square, all the competitors were holding thin paper and carefully reading it with various expressions on their faces. For a moment, the entire square was completely silent…
The quiet atmosphere continued for nearly five minutes before a clear bell chime quietly resounded across the square.
All the competitors put down the items in their hands at the same time when they heard the bell chime. They beckoned with their hands. In an instant, thousands of cauldrons of different colors and shapes suddenly appeared on the green stone stage.
Elder Zhao, who had his eyes slightly shut, opened them after the bell chime sounded. His eyes swept over the area below. His voice was calm, “I believe that all of you have also understood some things. This first round of the examination requires all of you to follow this incomplete medicinal formula and refine a completed medicinal elixir. Each of you will have two chances. After two chances, the medicinal elixir has yet to be successfully refined. In that case, the jade mirror on the bluestone stage will automatically light up with a red glow. The red glow will flash and the person will leave the stage…”
“On the opposite wall, there is an enormous hourglass. That is the time for the competition. Those who fail to refine a medicinal elixir before the hourglass has been poured out will also fail.”
“Do you understand?” Elder Zhao said with a smile.
“Yes!” A voice like muffled thunder boomed out from the square below.
“Since that’s the case, then…the first round of the test will begin now!”
Slowly raising his palm, Elder Zhao smiled and suddenly drew down. At this moment, thousands of flames suddenly appeared on the huge square like fireworks. The spectacular scene made people’s blood boil!
However, at this moment, Elder Zhang and the Hundred Herb Hall Master Qian Mingyi’s expressions suddenly changed.
They looked at everyone in the conference, but they did not see his grandson, Zhang Hengyu, or the Hundred Herb Hall disciples.
There were also four empty seats in the square.
At this moment, Elder Zhang was immediately shocked. He hurriedly asked, “Elder Zhao, have you seen my grandson?”
Elder Zhao said with some doubt, “Yesterday, I personally saw him at the Alchemist Guild to register?”
At this moment, the Hundred Herb Hall’s Hall Master also immediately said, “That’s right, all of my Hundred Herb Hall’s disciples have disappeared.”
Once these words were said, Elder Zhao immediately understood the seriousness of the situation.
“The two of you should remain calm and wait for me to send people to the backyard to investigate!” Elder Zhao hurriedly said.
“Someone come!”
At this moment, a guard walked up.
Elder Zhao said something by his ear.
That guard was incomparably surprised and immediately left to investigate the matter regarding the missing few people.
Elder Zhao hurriedly said, “Everyone, don’t worry. They have indeed entered our backyard. Therefore, this matter is related to our Alchemist Guild. No matter what, we will give you an explanation!”
At this moment, Elder Zhang looked at Elder Zhao and said, “Elder Zhao, although you and I have a deep friendship, if something were to happen to my grandson, I will definitely not let this matter rest!”
“Elder Zhang, don’t worry. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly at this moment!”
Song Yang sat at the side, the corners of his mouth curled into a faint cold smile.
It was just as well that Zhang Hengyu had disappeared. His disciple, Chen Feng, would be able to win the championship of this grand competition.
On the arena.
Ye Chen stood quietly in front of the green stone platform. The current him did not immediately summon flames to refine like the other alchemists.
Instead, he watched his Fourth Senior Sister refine.
The medicinal elixir that Ye Chen needed to refine was a Tier 5 medicinal elixir, the Blood Recovery Elixir.
The Blood Recovery Elixir was just as its name implied. This was a kind of medicinal elixir that was used to treat those injuries that were quite serious. This kind of healing medicinal elixir was generally not considered too precious.
Ye Chen could refine this kind of medicinal elixir even with his eyes closed. Why was there a need for him to be like others and spend all his effort looking at the elixir formula?
Therefore, Ye Chen was not in a hurry at all.
Ye Chen turned his head and looked around. He realized that his Fourth Senior Sister and Chen Feng were already starting to refine the elixir.
Although Ye Chen hated this Chen Feng, he had to say that he would be Fourth Senior Sister’s formidable opponent.
“Who do you think will win this time?”
“If nothing goes wrong, it should be the Elixir King’s disciple, Chen Feng!”
“That Chen Feng, only Zhang Hengyu can barely contend with him. Now, Zhang Hengyu is still missing.”
At this moment, the audience began to discuss animatedly.
Someone saw Ye Chen.
“Ai, why hasn’t that brat started refining elixirs yet?”
“So much time has passed already. If that brat still hasn’t started, will there be enough time?”
“Don’t bother, he’s definitely just making up the numbers.”
At this moment, more than ten minutes had already passed since the beginning of the assessment. During this short ten-plus minutes, the red light flickered from time to time on the enormous square.
Behind the flickering red light stone platform, those alchemists who had failed could only choose to withdraw dejectedly with flushed faces.
At this moment, Ye Chen estimated that it was about time. He also did not wish to be eliminated in the first round. Hence, he began to prepare to refine medicinal elixirs.
