It was truly gratifying to have these troublemakers from out of town dragged away.
Now there are fewer doubters; Dansheng Mountain Range has never engaged in match-fixing. Their reputation is built up over many years, and it won't change this year.
The field is now filled with strong players.
They have already reached the top 32 in the rankings.
Ye Tian defeated Hai Wuyai and has successfully qualified for the top 16.
Huan Qingsha was lucky; during the qualifying rounds, she encountered someone whose strength was slightly inferior to hers. After a fierce battle, she won because the opponent was in a hurry to go to the toilet.
He is now about to participate in the competition for the top 32.
Huan Qingsha's opponent is Gan Mo.
Gan Mo is calm and natural, with an extremely clean background. His strength is at the level of a Medicine King, and at its peak, only one step away from Nirvana.
There's almost no suspense in dealing with dry powder and washing light gauze.
Anyone with a discerning eye would know that the odds were definitely in the bag, so the casino didn't even offer any odds and the betting pool was shut down.
To prevent people from taking advantage of loopholes.
Despite Huan Qingsha's meager strength, she performed each step from setting up the fire to finally raising the cauldron with utmost steadiness, demonstrating her mastery of alchemy as a Grand Alchemist.
However, compared to the peak of the Medicine King, the pills she made were as childish as a baby playing.
In the end, Huan Qingsha lost, and was defeated by Gan Mo with an overwhelming advantage.
Ye Tian didn't even bother to comfort her. Ever since Huan Qingsha entered the sect, she hadn't seemed like the type to be depressed. She always seemed a bit neurotic.
Losing to Ganmo might be a blow to others, but for Huan Qingsha, it's something new and exciting.
"Master, that's so cool!" Huan Qingsha exclaimed excitedly.
Ye Tian was full of questions. She lost so badly, almost getting rubbed into the ground by Gan Mo, how could it be considered cool?
Huan Qingsha had her own reasons. She exclaimed, "Listen to me, Master. Even if I tried my best, I might not be able to win. That's Ganmo, a champion candidate from the Dansheng Mountain Range, at the level of a Medicine King. I'm just a Grand Pharmacist. But I went easy on him just now. I secretly didn't remove the impurities."
"This..." Ye Tian was stunned. He really couldn't understand this girl's thought process.
Huan Qingsha seemed very excited, muttering to herself, "From now on, I can say that I was the one who had to release water back then."
Ye Tian was speechless. He patted her shoulder and asked, "Have you ever thought about what if, in the future, even Qian Mo doesn't have your status in the alchemy world?"
"How is this possible!" Huan Qingsha said in disbelief.
All right.
Ye Tian shrugged helplessly; she, on the other hand, was quite confident.
With Huan Qingsha eliminated by Gan Mo, the competition has entered the round of 16, reaching a fever pitch. Those who weren't strong enough have already been eliminated.
The sixteen players remaining on the field are all strong.
Aside from Ye Tian impersonating Wuchen Daoist, Gan Mo (surname Gan), and Hong Quan'an, who was trained by Su Li, the remaining thirteen were all experts.
There are almost no weaklings.
These thirteen people were mostly from the Gan family and the academic faction of the Alchemy Association, followed by some strange, unorthodox individuals.
For example, in the current round of 16, there is a master who is going to compete with Ye Tian – Liu Yi'an.
This person came from an unorthodox background, reportedly without any sect or school, and entered this stage solely through the alchemy skills he had cultivated as a rogue cultivator.
However, Liu Yi'an appeared to be nothing more than a pure alchemy practitioner, extremely thin and with a sallow complexion. He had the gaunt appearance of a scholar.
It's obvious that he focused all his energy on cultivating alchemy and had no energy left for cultivating both alchemy and martial arts.
This is the downside of not having resources to accumulate.
Even the most gifted individuals must dedicate themselves to mastering a single skill in order to compete with them on the same stage.
Even so, they are certainly no match for us.
Although Liu Yi'an was also at the Medicine King level, his path to becoming a Medicine King was solid and steady. There were no amazing techniques involved, making it completely impossible for him to defeat Ye Tian.
The odds weren't even opened for him on the stage, and no one was allowed to place bets.
This clearly shows that the authorities do not have high hopes for this person's ability to defeat Ye Tian.
Indeed, this was the case, despite Liu Yi'an's best efforts and the use of all his skills to refine what he considered a decent pill.
But when Ye Tian unleashed his pure and flawless divine pill, it was like a storm.
Despite his defeat, Liu Yi'an was quite happy because the Alchemy Association had taken notice of him. They recruited him into the association, and from then on, he was no longer considered a self-taught individual but a member of an academic lineage.
It can be considered that he got what he asked for.
Ye Tian didn't hesitate and became the first to enter the top eight.
Immediately afterwards.
Gan Mo also defeated his opponent with lightning speed and entered the quarterfinals.
Hong Quan'an was indeed a master of alchemy, using different alchemical flames each round, and each combination produced unexpected results.
They also made it into the quarterfinals.
We are now in the top eight.
Hong Quan'an, Ye Tian, Gan Mo, Fei Yunchen, Shangguan Chuyun, Wu Ming, Li Er, Chu Liang.
There were eight people in total.
The quarterfinals will still be played in a single-elimination, single-round format.
The decision was made by drawing lots.
Hong Quan'an versus Chu Liang.
Gan Mo versus Li Er.
Fei Yunchen versus Shangguan Chuyun.
Wu Ming faced off against Ye Tian.
The first two rounds proceeded without incident. Although Chu Liang displayed his masterful skill in refining elixirs by enveloping physical fire with qi fire, it only fueled Hong Quan'an's competitive spirit.
Hong Quan'an simply abandoned his previous flames, instead using the thunder and fire of heaven and earth to draw upon the qi fire to envelop the physical fire, creating a three-way torment. He managed to create a legendary elixir through sheer willpower.
Chu Liang suffered a complete defeat.
Gan Mo's steady and methodical approach to fighting Li Er was like that of an old fisherman. Unmoved by the eight winds, I stand tall and find peace.
With an extremely calm demeanor, they slightly outmaneuvered their opponents and secured victory in the match.
Li Er was not disappointed to lose to Gan Mo.
However, the match between Shangguan Chuyun and Fei Yunchen was incredibly powerful. Both of them unleashed their full power simultaneously, displaying a combination of fire, lightning, and physical fire.
Fei Yunchen won by using his exquisite and domineering thunder and fire techniques.
The pills he produced by burning with lightning and fire were all imbued with the characteristics of lightning, making them extremely rare.
Wu Ming faced off against Ye Tian. There was no suspense whatsoever. Ye Tian's flawless divine pill was like a mountain; no matter how hard Wu Ming tried, he couldn't break through it.
Win the game.
They have secured their place in the semifinals.
Ye Tian versus Fei Yunchen.
Gan Mo fought against Hong Quan'an.
This is the real highlight, and the audience is on the edge of their seats, as if they are watching the most sacred match in the world!
"The competition has officially begun!"
As the referee's voice rang out.
Ye Tian and Fei Yunchen stepped onto the arena at the same time.
