Volume 1 Chapter 803 Smoothly Advance
Zhu Changqing looked around anxiously, but he didn't find any trace of Kong Yun.
At this time, Fang Qingshan did not see Kong Yun's figure. He could not help but say, "Is that kid not coming?" At this time, Zhu Changqing's face was ashen and he did not say anything.
A drop of cold sweat was left on Zhu Changqing's face. If Kong Yun did not come, the Zhu Clan would be very passive.
On the other hand, Kong Yun was refining pills. Three pills were flashing in Kong Yun's hands, and Kong Yun's face was filled with a happy smile.
At this moment, the Emperor Demon God rushed in and looked at Kong Yun. "What are you still doing here? The competition is about to begin."
Hearing this, Kong Yun's expression changed and he disappeared.
The Emperor Demon God's eyes were stunned, "Holy sh*t, so fast!"
A loud voice rang out in everyone's ears. "Please enter the arena. The competition will officially begin."
Zhu Changqing was still dragging the pace of entering the arena behind him, wanting to delay the time as soon as possible, but his eyes were still constantly looking out of the arena.
At this moment, a figure flashed in front of Zhu Changqing. "Sorry, I'm late." Kong Yun had an apologetic expression on his face.
"Fortunately, you came in time. If you were any later, you would really be finished." Zhu Changqing pulled Kong Yun and ran into the arena with a very happy expression. As long as Kong Yun came, everything would be easy to say.
After that, Kong Yun found his seat, sat down, took out his pill furnace, and quietly waited for the start of the competition.
After that, Kong Yun swept across the arena and discovered that there were quite a lot of people participating in the competition. There were about a hundred people, but the strongest was still from the eight great clans.
Not long after, the competition began. The first round of the competition was to refine a third-grade pill. Furthermore, the pill was designated by the Heavenly Pill Hall. It was a third-grade beginner pill, the Withered Wood Pill. The effect of this pill was to increase the strength of a ninth-level sage by a small amount.
The difficulty of refining this pill was in the area of withered wood. Withered wood was an extremely difficult medicinal ingredient to refine. Only those pill refining experts could refine all the energy within the withered wood. In this arena, no one could do this, not even Kong Yun.
Kong Yun was not surprised when he heard that the exam questions were within his expectations. Although he had never refined such a pill before, with his Spiritual Fire's strength, he could easily extract the energy from the withered wood, but it was not completely refined.
Everyone else was the first to refine the energy of the withered wood, but Kong Yun was different. Kong Yun was the first to refine other medicinal ingredients. This method surprised the surrounding people and immediately turned into a smile.
Fang Qingshan secretly laughed in his heart. He knew that this was the stupidest thing to do. However, when the old man on the stage saw this, he was stunned. He turned his attention to Kong Yun. In their eyes, only if he had absolute confidence would he dare to use such a method. This method could preserve the energy of the withered wood to the maximum extent possible, allowing the quality of the pills to reach the highest level.
The gazes of these old men naturally hadn't concealed themselves from the heads of the eight great clans. When the Zhu Clan's Clan Head saw that this person was Kong Yun, his face was filled with joy and sorrow, and his expression was uncertain.
"This person is from your Zhu Clan, right? Is this kid your clan's trump card?" A Clan Master looked at Clan Master Zhu with a smile on his face. Clan Master Zhu only smiled and didn't say anything.
Although the eight great clans appeared to be harmonious on the surface, there were still fights in private.
Soon, two hours passed. Many people finished refining all the medicinal ingredients and began the process of forming pills.
Suddenly, a burst of light reached everyone's eyes. "Someone succeeded in refining it." Following that, everyone's eyes turned to the bright spot. When they discovered that the Qian Clan's person was, of course, the son of the Qian Clan's Clan Master, Qian Tong.
The Qian Family members began to cheer for Qian Tong. Qian Tong's face revealed a trace of pride.
As Qian Tong's refinement was completed, someone gradually began to successfully refine it. Waves of light began to flash on the spot, but nothing happened in Kong Yun's pill furnace.
When the Zhu Clan's Clan Master saw this situation, his expression was a little anxious, but he was helpless.
Following a burst of laughter, Fang Qingshan finished the pill in his hand and glanced at Kong Yun with a provocative expression.
However, Kong Yun did not know about the situation outside, and his attention was entirely focused on the pill furnace.
Kong Yun did not make any mistakes in the process of refining. Instead, he pursued the extreme of refining dead wood too much, dragging out his own time before lagging behind everyone else.
Suddenly, there was a movement in Kong Yun's pill furnace. Following a burst of vibration, Kong Yun waved his one arm, and several energies began to merge rapidly. Soon, three pills were formed.
A burst of light also appeared in Kong Yun's pill furnace, announcing the end of Kong Yun's pill refining process.
At this time, many people were looking forward to Kong Yun's pill refining quality, because Kong Yun was the first to use such a method to refine pills. They all wanted to know what kind of results Kong Yun could achieve.
Dong ~ A bell rang throughout the arena. "The first match is over. Please leave the arena if you haven't refined the pill." Kong Yun saw many people's sad expressions, cursing something as he slowly walked out of the arena.
"Next, please ask the Vice Hall Master of the Heavenly Pill Hall to judge everyone's level of pill refining and judge the ranking of this competition." After saying this, an old man walked out and began to inspect the quality of the pills for everyone.
This time, the main purpose of the inspection was to check the medicinal properties of the pills, as well as the amount of pills refined.
Very quickly, he found Kong Yun's location. Kong Yun raised his hand and took out three pills. The old man kicked his eyes and looked at Kong Yun in disbelief, "Not bad, not bad."
The old man held the pill in his hand and put it on his nose to sniff. The medicinal fragrance was abundant. The old man could feel that the medicinal pill contained sufficient medicinal properties. It was a top-grade medicinal pill.
In about fifteen minutes, the old man finished examining all the pills. "Next, let me announce the ranking of this competition. The first place is the Zhu Clan's Kong Yun, the second place is the Qian Clan's Qian Tong, and the third place is the Zhou Clan's Zhou Xiao …"
As the old man read out everyone's rankings, everyone's faces were filled with surprise. Although they knew that Kong Yun would definitely be of the highest quality as long as he refined the pills, they never expected him to be the first. This time, the Zhu Clan Patriarch did not expect such a result.
"Patriarch Zhu, you've hidden it deep enough." The Qian Clan's Clan Head smiled and looked at the Zhu Clan's Clan Head, his tone somewhat unfriendly.
"Not bad, right? I can't compare to you guys." These words were extremely meaningful, causing the Qian Clan's Clan Head's expression to turn sinister for a moment, and he instantly returned to normal. These old fellows were naturally the best actors.
As the result of the competition appeared, everyone's attention was focused on Kong Yun. It could be said that Kong Yun had made a big name for himself this time.
A voice sounded in the air again. "The second round of the competition begins. This time, the content of the competition is to refine iron gold stones and use your flames to refine the iron gold inside. Based on the weight you put forward, you will only be ranked in the top 20 this time." This time, the topic surprised everyone. After all, there had never been such a situation before.
Although everyone thought so, they did not say what they thought. After all, the topic was what the Heavenly Pill Hall had said.
Soon after, everyone received the same iron ore and began to refine it.
Kong Yun smiled. This kind of thing was really tailor-made for him. With his Spiritual Fire grade, refining this kind of metal was extremely simple, without any pressure.
However, Kong Yun noticed that some of the people had worried expressions on their faces. Their Spiritual Fire could refine pills, but it was still very difficult to refine these things. They shook their heads and began to move their hands.
Instantly, colorful flames appeared on the scene, giving everyone a feast for the eye. However, with the appearance of these flames, the temperature in the arena gradually increased. Not long after, sweat appeared on the faces of some of the people with the weakest strength. Even so, these people had no intention of leaving. After all, such a scene was very rare.
The iron golden stones in Kong Yun's hands began to melt gradually. A few smiling iron golden powder appeared in Kong Yun's hands. Kong Yun's hand went crazy. These things were quite heavy.
At this moment, a figure appeared on the grandstand, staring at Kong Yun's figure, unable to extricate himself. This person was Xiang'er.
This time, Xiang'er did not disguise herself. Instead, she appeared in the stands openly. For a moment, the people from the eight great clans stood up and greeted Xiang'er. Xiang'er responded one by one without putting on airs.
Although the eight great clans were very outstanding in pills, they were still not comparable to Xiang'er's clans. All of these clans were guarded by experts. No matter what, in this place, as long as they had absolute strength, they would have the right to speak.
"Miss Xiang'er, why are you here?" The Vice Hall Master of the Heavenly Pill Hall walked up to Xiang'er and said respectfully.
"I'm just here to take a look. I don't have any other intentions. Just continue with the competition. Don't worry about me." Even though she said that, Xiang'er still sat on the second seat and watched everything on the field.
The Vice Pavilion Master sat on the main seat and presided over the competition.
"The Heavenly Pill Hall is going to make another big profit this time." Xiang'er smiled as she looked at the Vice Hall Master and said slowly.
The Vice Pavilion Master only smiled and did not say anything. Xiang'er's words were true, and she could not refute them.
After Xiang'er finished speaking, she looked at Kong Yun intentionally or unintentionally. She found that Kong Yun's aura was stable and his soul force output was stable. There was no problem.
Xiang'er was quite confident in Kong Yun's pill refining techniques. After all, Kong Yun had once refined top-grade pills. This kind of strength was not something ordinary alchemists possessed.
