Before Dongfang Mian could finish speaking, Yan Qingxin interrupted her, "Dongfang classmate, you have quite the scheme. When answering questions, you either blame the human master or the god master."
Before Dongfang Mian could say anything, the teacher angrily rebuked her, "Don't talk nonsense."
Yan Qingxin was surprised that her teacher suddenly showed her no respect at all. She turned around and sat down in anger, as if she wanted to see how he could show favoritism to Dongfang Mian.
What she didn't know was that her teacher was also deeply shocked. When he mentioned this matter before, he had never mentioned the alchemist's name, but Dongfang Mian revealed that the alchemist's name was Cheng Zhe. Cheng Zhe was none other than the alchemist mentor of the teacher in front of her. The Heavenly Demon Pill incident could be said to be the most perplexing and only stain on the master's entire alchemy experience.
"Teacher, there's one last question," Dongfang Mian reminded him.
The teacher said blankly, "The last thing is something I experienced when I was a child. During a sacrificial ceremony in the Demon Realm, a crucial Bright Pill went missing. The Bright Pill had no other purpose than to provide illumination for the ceremony. In the end, we had no choice but to use a Night-Shining Pearl instead, but the effect was greatly reduced. This matter is not considered an unsolved mystery in the origin of alchemy, but it is an extremely puzzling thing in my life. I don't know whether this was done by the God or the Human Lord?"
Dongfang Mian tried her best to suppress the 'Hua Qianxun' that was about to swear from inside the token, rubbed her temples, and said helplessly, "This was done by Yan... the Demon Lord."
It was quite a coincidence that Dongfang Mian had just overheard Yan Lin bragging about this to a few of them during a previous casual chat.
"How dare you slander the Demon Lord!" Yan Qingxin suddenly stood up and angrily rebuked.
Dongfang Mian glanced at her sideways, looked her up and down, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this missing Mingdan is still embedded in the Demon Lord's palace. Hmm? Didn't everyone say that you, Yan, are the future Demon Lord's wife? You haven't even been to the Demon Lord's palace yet, have you?"
Seeing everyone looking at her with different expressions, Yan Qingxin braced herself and said, "Who said I haven't been there? I'll tell you, there is no such thing as Ming Dan in the Demon Lord's palace. Don't try to slander the Demon Lord."
"So what if I didn't? Why are you so agitated?" Dongfang Mian said, shrugging. "Teacher, I guess I got this question wrong. It looks like my score on the test won't be very high."
The teacher shook his head and said, "This was just a casual question, not a formal one. The first two questions are. You have passed the test. Congratulations, Dongfang. I am very satisfied with your answers. Congratulations on getting first place with a perfect score in this test."
Everyone present nearly coughed up blood. Could this really be happening? Teacher, are you sure this student from the East isn't your long-lost illegitimate daughter who's been living in the divine realm?
Ignoring everyone's gaze, the teacher said, "Alright, now we'll move on to the next activity: alchemy. Everyone, please refine the pills you are best at. I will observe you and then group you up to provide guidance based on the strength you demonstrate."
Upon hearing this, everyone took out their alchemy furnaces and began refining pills. The competition in alchemy was nothing more than the quality and quantity of the pills produced. The better the medicinal materials, the higher the quality of the pills and the greater the quantity.
As the pride of the Yan family, they naturally had no shortage of such resources, and each of them confidently brought out high-grade alchemy furnaces and high-quality alchemical materials.
Among the crowd, Dongfang Mian's alchemy furnace appeared extremely ordinary, and the Yan family disciples immediately seized the opportunity to ridicule and mock Dongfang Mian.
