Li Xiaodan said anxiously, "I really want to beat up my fourth uncle right now."

Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle, my pure and innocent image has been ruined because of you!

If Li Xiaodan's father were here right now, upon hearing his daughter's words, he would surely be moved to tears and say: "Daughter, you are truly my good daughter."

My father's lifelong reputation has been ruined in an instant!

"You don't need to explain this to me."

Yang Lu looked at Li Xiaodan with a puzzled expression, wondering why she was explaining this to him.

People who don't know the situation might think there's something going on between them.

"I……"

Of course I had to explain. Others might misunderstand me, but you can't!

I don't want my image in your mind to become like Jinlian's!

However, just as she was about to explain, an elderly man in the center of the stage spoke directly into the microphone.

"Everyone, welcome to the 10th China Alchemy Conference. I am Ding Yunchang, the person in charge of this conference..."

"I never expected that the person in charge this time would be Secretary-General Ding."

Someone recognized the old man holding the microphone as the secretary-general of the Alchemy Association, and he also had another identity.

That is the Qin family, the most powerful family in Kyoto!

"I won't say anything more. Now, I invite all the alchemists from the various families to enter the competition venue, bring your respective medicinal herbs, and show us your best skills!"

"Remember, you only get one chance!"

After saying a long string of irrelevant things, Ding Yunchang finally got to the point.

Before them were hundreds of alchemy furnaces. The rules of the competition were quite simple: each family alchemist would refine pills according to their assigned positions drawn by lot.

As for what kind of pills are refined, the Pill Association doesn't care; in the end, the Pill Association scores the pills according to their grade. The top 100 are then ranked based on their scores.

It's that simple and straightforward!

In the past, alchemy competitions would actually consist of three rounds. For example, the first round would determine the alchemy of the pills, the second round would be a free-for-all, and the third round would be... but this was time-consuming and laborious.

Instead of wasting time like this, let's just decide the winner with one match!

After Ding Yunchang finished speaking, the alchemists below began to search for their corresponding alchemy furnaces.

At the very top of the alchemy furnace, there was a huge electronic display screen showing the alchemists present.

All of this was done under the watchful eyes of the public, and the video was even directly connected to the headquarters of the Alchemy Association. Under such circumstances, it was virtually impossible to cheat.

"President."

"President."

Here at the headquarters of the Alchemy Association in Kyoto, a group of people are sitting around a large screen. These people are all heavyweights in the Alchemy Association.

They are in charge of remote monitoring, and everyone here has sharp eyes.

Just then, an old man dressed in a black robe walked in from outside.

Upon seeing the old man enter, those who were originally sitting on the ground hurriedly stood up. This old man was none other than Wuyazi, the president of the Alchemy Association.

In the entire alchemy world, probably no one is unaware of him; he is a ninth-grade alchemist!

"Okay, have a seat. I'll just take a look; I have other things to take care of later."

Wuya Zi nodded to them, explaining that he had very important matters to attend to today and therefore could not travel to Jinling to participate in the alchemy conference.

Now that we still have some time, let's take a quick look.

After hearing the chairman's words, the people around nodded and all sat down.

"What!"

Wuya Zi glanced at it briefly and was about to leave, but the next second he seemed to have discovered something and hurriedly rushed to the screen.

"Pull it in, pull it in!"

"OK……"

Those around were immediately puzzled. They knew that the president had always given them the impression of being a very calm and collected person. Why was he suddenly so agitated?

It was as if they had seen his long-lost brother! But they dared not ask any questions, and could only obediently zoom in with the camera.

In the shot, a young man is sitting in front of an alchemy furnace.

There's nothing wrong with this man, is there? Apart from being slightly handsome, there's nothing else special about him.

When President Dante saw the man, he said in great fear.

"Oh my god, it really is him! Quick, get the car ready, I need to go to Nanjing."

"Ah, but President, please wait a moment..."

"Stop talking nonsense! Get ready now!"

Everyone was shocked again. The president had a very important meeting to attend today, but before he could finish speaking, the president directly rebuked him.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, the president, like a donkey with its rear end on fire, rushed outside at breakneck speed.

Everyone's attention was focused on the calm man on the screen. Who exactly was this guy?

At this moment, Chairman Ding was running while shouting in his heart: I found you! I finally found you again!

"I wonder what kind of elixir Mr. Yang plans to refine next?!"

Li Xiaodan, who was standing below the stage, looked at Yang Lu standing in front of the alchemy furnace and muttered to herself.

Actually, the organizers required participants to bring their own medicinal herbs for this alchemy session. She also asked Mr. Yang what those herbs were needed.

Mr. Yang's reply was that he had already prepared everything she needed, so she didn't need to worry about it.

This made Li Xiaodan very curious about what kind of pill Mr. Yang was going to refine next.

To get into the top 100, you need at least a fourth-grade, or mid-grade, pill!
