Chapter 63 The Female Lead's Halo, Boundless Magic Power
How could that be!
Even his most prized disciple, who had kept his own school, could only refine first-grade pills!
Still a useless pill!
He abruptly closed his eyes, wishing that everything before him was an illusion.
Of course, the best scenario would be if you suddenly went blind.
impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Although the Taixu Sect mainly cultivates swordsmanship and has three elders at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage and one elder at the Integration stage, the other elders are all experts in their own fields and have outstanding abilities, making them top-tier.
The few disciples he personally trained could all be at least rank three with just a casual practice!
Xu Yanzhou and the other elders turned to look, and their faces instantly turned green, not just a little bit ugly.
No matter how unskilled one is in alchemy, one can easily discern obvious differences in quality from the appearance.
Elder Ming took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.
It must be that he opened his eyes wrong.
Yes, take a deep breath.
Don't be afraid, take another look!
He opened his eyes shakily and once again revealed a smile that was even uglier than a grimace!
I wish I could put on a bloody spectacle right there and then!
All of them are top-grade!
Waste pills!
What's going on?!
They're making a fool of themselves!
Do you really crave stir-fried bamboo shoots with pork that much?
He quickly picked up the pills Lin Qingran had refined, his eyes filled with disbelief and despair.
Ten Grade 4 pills, top-grade pills!
How could this happen!
This isn't just a challenge, this is a complete rout! A total rout!
Pressing down on Taixu Sect's face, using both hands simultaneously, and then spitting twice.
Elder Ming, breathing rapidly, turned his head in despair, "Wanwan, am I getting old and my eyesight is failing?"
Jiang Xianwan: "...No."
Not only him, but Xu Yanzhou and the elders all felt as if the sky of the Taixu Sect had suddenly collapsed.
They had no doubt about Elder Ming's ability to teach his disciples; they had competed before, and they had never encountered such a situation that left them completely bewildered.
That's it.
What a disgrace to the Taixu Sect!
Elder Ming closed his eyes and could no longer see the future.
He gritted his teeth, took a slow, deep breath, maintained the composure expected of a senior, forced a smile, and announced the result of the competition.
The place fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone's expression was initially one of horror, but then they all looked in unison at the graceful young woman.
Six direct disciples, and all they produced were useless pills?
Is Elder Ming blind?
Still not awake? What nonsense are you spouting?
Within a day, news of today's events will spread throughout both the north and south!
They might as well learn from those crazy old folks in the realm of martial arts and start covering their faces when they go out from now on!
Several of the direct disciples lowered their heads in deep shame.
A level 10 storm was brewing in my heart.
Why!
Why is that?!
They still managed to eat bamboo shoots stir-fried with pork for twelve meals!
Lin Qingran was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, she remembered that she was the heroine. She lowered her eyes modestly, but secretly felt proud. "System, help me check if the favorability rating of the people present in the beauty encyclopedia has increased."
The system gasped, a faint grinding of teeth escaping its lips. "It's more like it's fallen!"
"What did you say?" Lin Qingran's smile froze. "How could that be! Are you sure you didn't see wrong?!"
"No." The system has already performed a self-check ten times.
Lin Qingran could no longer maintain her perfect smile, and inwardly roared, "How is this possible! How could they not give me any favorability points when I'm so outstanding!"
"Can you calm down!" the system yelled back, quickly regaining its composure. "They just can't accept it right away."
The analysis continued, "Even Elder Ming's eldest disciple only produced useless pills, losing all face. They need some time to adjust. If you perform just as amazingly in the next competition, perhaps their initial disbelief will turn into genuine admiration."
"Remember, the female lead's halo grants her boundless power."
Lin Qingran's mind was a bit confused. Listening to its seemingly logical analysis, she could only comfort herself, "That must be it."
She had no other choice. If she performed poorly in the next game and deliberately threw the game, it would only cause more resentment.
That's all we can do.
They just can't accept it yet; they'll get used to it.
No one can hate a genius!
Lin Qingran's mind settled down, and she resumed her harmless and humble smile.
Seeing the girl's dazzling, seemingly provocative smile, Elder Ming's face turned red, and he immediately wanted to find a crack in the ground to disappear into.
His prized disciple, whom he had carefully taught, was no match for a mere swordsman!
Xu Yanzhou gritted his teeth so hard they were almost split into eight pieces, but he forced himself to maintain the composure befitting a sect leader. With a wave of his hand, he signaled to the elders to announce the start of the second match.
"What's the rush?"
Hua Buxiu, with his legs crossed, slowly interrupted.
Xu Yanzhou subconsciously looked at him, his voice trembling into a pitiful wave, "Sword Master Fengyi".
Hua Buxiu lazily got up, picked up two mushrooms that were squatting at his feet, cracking sunflower seeds, and was unusually polite with a humble expression.
"To cultivate both paths simultaneously, to achieve such a feat at such a young age, and to possess such a remarkable skill in alchemy is truly astonishing."
"My two little rascals do know a little about alchemy, but they are always arrogant and conceited. It's better to let them broaden their horizons and see what it means to be out of reach of others."
Jiang Xianwan: "...?"
No, when did she become arrogant and conceited?
Lin Yujin: "...?"
They weren't arrogant or complacent at all!
That's clearly confidence!
Hua Buxiu ignored his two unfilial disciples, casually tossing them onto the field, and said, "Go."
He wanted to see again whether Lin Qingran was truly a nemesis to him and his apprentice.
Hearing the sincere praise from the Phoenix Sword Master, Lin Qingran's eyes lit up with joy, and she smiled sweetly, "This junior dares not, but I would like to spar with my senior brothers and sisters."
So, two more tables were added to the competition venue.
Lin Yujin and Jiang Xianwan stood there silently, not moving.
They looked at the exquisite alchemy furnace on the table, somewhat at a loss as to where to begin.
They all use woks to stir-fry vegetables—I mean, stir-fry them!
Jiang Xianwan pondered for three seconds, then looked down and rummaged through his mustard seed bag to find a spoon. Lin Yujin's eyes lit up.
That's right, just use the alchemy furnace as a pot!
Although small.
It won't delay the cooking process.
Everyone: "...?"
Are they about to eat?
Only Hua Buxiu, Bai Ziye, and Su Qingliu remained calm and showed no sign of anything amiss.
Lin Yujin excitedly gripped the spoon, "Junior Sister, what are you planning to refine?"
Jiang Xianwan glanced at the spiritual plants in the box. "Keep it a secret."
"Alright, I'll keep it a secret for now too."
Anyway, none of the pills they refined were of any good quality.
Lin Yujin casually grabbed a handful of spiritual plants and threw them into the pot—no, into the alchemy furnace—and started stir-frying them with a spoon.
Jiang Xianwan glanced at Lin Qingran next door.
This distance is a bit dangerous.
Lin Qingran smiled slightly at her.
Jiang Xianwan: "..."
She ignored it, grabbed a handful of spiritual plants, and threw them into the alchemy furnace.
Everyone: "..."
What are you two doing? This is alchemy, not cooking!
With such limited alchemy skills, how can one be proud and complacent?
Several of their direct disciples were dumbfounded and speechless at their outrageous antics.
For some reason, they suddenly relaxed and lowered their heads to start selecting spiritual plants again.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two familiar sounds rang out. Jiang Xianwan and Lin Yujin fell silent, and when they looked at each other, they saw the bewilderment and horror in each other's eyes.
They...actually...exploded the oven?
