Once the gambling stall was set up, the first people to place bets were naturally the Hua family.
Hua Yiyi and Hua Qiang were the first to place their bets, and they naturally didn't believe they would lose.
Li You stood aside with his hands folded. He knew that the Ye family would definitely win, and he was not happy to bet on the Hua family.
And even if he wins the bet, it will be Sister Qian Ning's money, so he might as well not gamble...
Not only can a good brother not take his sister's money, he also has to earn a lot of money for his sister, so he has to find a way to get all the money from the Hua family and give it to his sister as soon as possible.
Soon, all the onlookers placed their bets, and most of them chose the Hua family to win. After all, the Hua family is a middle-class family!
How could they easily lose to a small family from outside who challenged them?
Moreover, the Ye family has only thirty people. A small family of this size may not even be able to defeat the small families in Lintian City.
Everyone was certain that the Ye family would lose this battle.
The first to go into battle was Hua Yiyi, a woman in her early twenties who looked like a banished immortal and unattainable.
The person sent by the Ye family was President Ye.
An old man with gray hair versus a young woman, it's a case of the big bullying the small...
President Ye said with a smile: "Young friend, please come in."
Hua Yiyi glanced at President Ye and responded, "Please give me your guidance, senior."
After saying that, the two of them walked onto the competition stage and began to refine the elixir. Qin Qianning raised her eyebrows. It turned out that one cannot generalize everyone, even though Hua Yiming was a piece of shit.
But this Hua Yiyi is a good one, with a bit of the flavor of a high-class flower.
Although he is aloof, he is also polite.
When President Ye's alchemy skills were revealed, everyone was slightly surprised.
“I didn’t expect that he was actually an emperor-level alchemist!”
"If I remember correctly, this Hua family member should only be a Saint-level alchemist, right? Could it be that... the Hua family is really going to lose this battle?"
"The Hua family must have taken it lightly when they heard that a small family was coming to challenge them. However, Hua Yiyi is already at the peak of the Saint level and must be looking to use this opportunity to advance.
If I succeed in getting promoted, coupled with the Hua family's natural resources and treasures, it's not impossible for me to surpass this old man."
Qin Qianning watched their confrontation with burning eyes, and she thought to herself that it was indeed worthy of being the Lintian City in the central area.
In Moon Shadow City, a Saint-level alchemist was considered remarkable, but here, Hua Yiyi could reach the Saint-level alchemist level at such a young age.
Moreover, the Hua family is just a medium-sized family, and the strength of the eight major families is probably even greater.
She needs to speed up...
The pills in the two people's furnaces were emitting fragrance, which meant that they were about to become pills, but at this moment, President Ye suddenly launched a mental attack towards Hua Yiyi.
Hua Yiyi had to allocate some of her strength to deal with President Ye's attack, so the pills in the furnace were a little unstable.
Her brows were furrowed and sweat beads were dripping from her forehead.
Seeing this, the people in Lintian City couldn't help but curse: "Bah, what a shameless old man, to use such a method to deal with a young girl."
"His strength is obviously higher than Hua Yiyi's, so winning is not a big problem at all. I didn't expect him to use such a shady trick.
The people from outside are indeed sinister!"
The people outside Lintian City refuted on President Ye's behalf: "This is a normal operation of the alchemy competition. This is a competition, not a game."
"Why should we give in to her just because she's young? Does the weaker one have the right?"
"If you can't afford to lose, then send someone stronger to fight. The guards of Lintian City gave the Hua family a whole day to prepare for the battle."
"You sent a little girl here, and after she won, you accused them of bullying. You're acting like whores and want to be virtuous."
The people in Lintian City looked down on those who came from outside to challenge them, so they all spoke on Hua Yiyi's behalf, and those who could not enter Lintian City naturally shared the same hatred with the Ye family.
Both sides were chattering and arguing, but at this time, Hua Yiyi's alchemy furnace emitted a rich fragrance, and the thunder slowly came to her head.
Everyone stopped arguing and watched this scene.
Soon, the pills in the furnace were successfully condensed, and the thunder fell as promised. Hua Yiyi was successfully promoted to the imperial alchemist.
The elixir in President Ye's furnace also came out, an imperial five-star elixir. There was no doubt that President Ye won this round.
Hua Yiyi lost the competition but respectfully clasped her fists and said to President Ye: "Thank you for your guidance, senior!"
Hua Yiyi knew that she was able to be promoted successfully just now because of the stimulation of President Ye's mental attack, otherwise her strength would still be stagnant at the Saint level.
President Ye waved his hand and said, "My friend, you are the second most talented person I have ever met. Don't let others mislead you in your cultivation. You will definitely have a bright future."
Hua Yiyi was a little curious. She wanted to know who the first talented person he mentioned was, but it was not appropriate to ask too much in such an occasion.
So she thanked President Ye respectfully and left the competition stage.
President Ye smiled when he saw this. The first talented person he had ever met was naturally Qin Qianning.
The girl was relatively calm today. If she were allowed to go on stage, I'm afraid she would also be promoted on the stage.
Qin Qianning stared at Hua Yiyi's departing back for a long time, then sent a voice message to Li You: "What is Hua Yiyi's status in the Hua family?"
Li You: "Sister, Hua Yiyi is the eldest daughter of the first wife. She has a high talent for alchemy, but she has a cold personality and doesn't get along well with the people in the first wife.
The reason he represented the eldest branch to fight today was probably to improve his alchemy skills."
Qin Qianning smiled after hearing this. No wonder...
Judging from Li You's experience, the overall atmosphere in the Hua family is not very good. It is really difficult to raise a daughter who is both cold-natured and polite.
After all, the environment has a subtle influence on people. It is also because Hua Yiyi has a bad relationship with the Hua family and has not been influenced by them that she has achieved such cultivation.
The Hua family has already lost one round. If they lose the next round, they will lose to the Ye family.
So the next person out has to win.
The person who took on the important task was naturally Huaqiang, a muscular middle-aged man.
He sneered at Hua Yiyi: "You useless piece of shit! You actually lost to such a small family! Your eldest family is really ashamed!"
After saying that, he swaggered onto the stage and looked at Qin Qianning and his group with contempt: "Who among you wants to compete with me in a weapon refining competition?"
His voice was loud and clear, and he deliberately attacked with spiritual power, as if to intimidate those from the Ye family who were fighting.
City Lord Ye secretly asked Qin Qianning: "Qianqian, there is a Saint-level weapon refiner in our family. What do you think about sending him into battle?
Or...Qianqian, do you have anyone to recommend?"
Qin Qianning glanced at the muscular man on the stage: "I hate people who pretend to be cool the most. I'm going to beat him up!"
City Lord Ye paused: "Ah? Are you going?"
Refining equipment is a physical job, and Qin Qianning's figure has nothing to do with refining equipment. Besides... she already knows how to refine medicine. From the spirit beasts she released, it is clear that she must be a beast tamer.
If she can also refine weapons, wouldn't that make her... an all-around genius?
