"Can Ye Chen refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill?"
Everyone was filled with anticipation.
Ye Chen is clearly aiming for the championship, but now that someone has already refined a high-grade fourth-rank pill of superior quality, Ye Chen is left with only the top-grade fourth-rank pill as his only option. It remains to be seen whether Ye Chen can successfully refine it.
Ye Chen was full of confidence. He was a genius at alchemy, and with the alchemy experience passed down to him by his ancestor, plus the assistance of the Demon Blood Red Lotus Flame Seed, it was not difficult for him to refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill. He had already successfully refined the Chonghua Pill before, and he would definitely not fail this time!
At that moment, Ye Chen took out the Chonghua Pill ingredients he had prepared in advance, activated the Demon Blood Red Lotus Flame, and began to refine the medicinal power of the ingredients.
Having already successfully refined the product before, Ye Chen was even more adept at it this time. Apart from a few minor details that he didn't handle perfectly, there were no mistakes throughout the entire process.
Therefore, he successfully refined the Chonghua Pill.
"The pill refined by Ye Chen is the Chonghua Pill, a top-grade fourth-rank pill, of medium quality!"
The referee announced the news with a slightly excited tone.
Upon hearing this result, everyone present was amazed. He was truly a genius, with such monstrous talent in alchemy. His cultivation had only just advanced from the eighth level of the Spirit King realm, yet he was already able to refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill, and of medium quality at that. Such talent was simply beyond the reach of others.
Is it only of medium quality?
Ye Chen pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, but even a medium grade was enough for him to win the championship. He didn't believe that Chi Yuan could refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill.
He is undoubtedly the champion of this alchemy competition!
"It's your turn, Senior Brother. Alchemy is your forte. Surely someone as talented as you can produce pills that are just as good as mine, right?"
Ye Chen looked at Chi Yuan, raised his eyebrows provocatively, and shouted across the distance in a affected tone.
"That's natural."
Chi Yuan gave a nonchalant reply and walked towards the alchemy platform amidst the expectant and skeptical gazes of the people.
Ye Chen was slightly taken aback, then sneered and turned to walk off the alchemy platform.
He wanted to see how Chi Yuan could possibly defeat him!
"Chi Yuan actually wants to compete with Ye Chen for the championship?"
"How can we compete with this? Ye Chen used spiritual fire to refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill. Even if Chi Yuan's pill refining skills are no worse than Ye Chen's, without the assistance of spiritual fire, how could he refine a higher-quality top-grade fourth-rank pill?"
"Indeed, top-grade fourth-rank medicinal herbs require at least a high-level Spirit Emperor cultivation to refine, and to refine a superior top-grade fourth-rank pill, the power of the flame must reach at least the Sect Master level. With his peak Spirit King cultivation, how could he refine a pill of this quality and grade without the assistance of a spiritual fire?"
"Let alone the advantage of not having a spirit fire seed, even if he were given the same spirit fire seed, with his cultivation level, he would not be able to beat Ye Chen. I have never heard of anyone who can refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill at the Spirit King level."
...
On the stands, from disciples to elders, everyone was whispering and discussing. Apart from a few people who knew Chi Yuan, almost no one believed that Chi Yuan could defeat Ye Chen.
Refining a top-grade fourth-rank pill with the cultivation of a peak Spirit King is already incredibly difficult, let alone refining a superior quality pill that is several times more difficult. They simply couldn't imagine any possibility of Chi Yuan winning.
"Brother, you don't actually believe that Ye Chen can lose to him this time, do you?"
Gan Jing gently swirled the spiritual tea in his cup, tilted his head to glance at Gan Zhen, who was sitting across a tea table, and chuckled with a competitive air.
Why can't we think that way?
Gan Zhen smiled faintly and said with confidence, "Brother, you're probably going to be disappointed again this time. Ye Chen will most likely lose to Uncle Fu Feng again."
He had already discovered that Chi Yuan possessed spiritual fire and had refined a superior Jade Purity Ice Spirit Pill at the first level of Spirit King. Now that Chi Yuan's cultivation had reached the peak of Spirit King, although refining a superior fourth-grade top-level pill was still very difficult, for a freak like Chi Yuan, was difficulty even a problem?
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Chi Yuan is certain to win this time!
"Is that so? Then I'll open my eyes wide and watch carefully how he defeats Ye Chen!"
Gan Jing spoke in a confrontational tone.
On the other side of the stands.
"Yan'er, are you joking? How could he possibly defeat Ye Chen?"
Su Ningyan's father, Su Yu, looked at Su Ningyan with a face full of doubt.
Su Ningyan just said that Ye Chen would lose to Chi Yuan. Isn't that a joke?
The Su family is a family of alchemists, and Su Yu is also a top-level fourth-grade alchemist. He knows how difficult it is to refine top-level fourth-grade pills. Even with his peak Spirit Emperor cultivation, he struggles to refine top-level fourth-grade pills with a very high failure rate. Chi Yuan is a whole major realm lower than him. He doesn't know how Chi Yuan can possibly defeat Ye Chen.
Could it be that Chi Yuan, at the peak of his spiritual kingship, could refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill?
Are you kidding me!
If Chi Yuan could refine it, he would eat his own alchemy furnace on the spot.
"Yan'er, you are also an alchemist. Don't you know how high your cultivation level is required to refine pills of this grade? Not to mention, he must refine a top-quality pill to win. How is that even possible?"
Su's mother, Fu Jun, also looked incredulous, wondering if her daughter had lost her mind. Not only did she refuse to marry the future emperor, but she also thought that Chi Yuan, with his peak Spirit King cultivation, could refine a top-grade fourth-rank pill. Did he have any common sense about alchemy?
Even laymen would call him a layman if they heard this.
"Anyway, I believe my senior brother can win!"
Su Ningyan said with unwavering conviction.
The high-grade fourth-rank Purple Essence Dao Spirit Pill that Chi Yuan used as a wager at the Jingyang City auction was likely refined by Chi Yuan himself, when he was only at the first level of Spirit King cultivation.
Now that Chi Yuan is at the peak of the Spirit King realm, what difficulty is there in refining top-grade fourth-rank pills? It's just that refining the upper-grade ones is a bit more difficult.
