Chapter 1339: Crazy First

as aware that, besides the four martial academies, there were also over ten smaller martial academies in this new school. However, these were made up of people with weaker abilities who were seen as i...Chapter 1339: First Round of Madness

Hua Xiangyue's words greatly surprised Wang Weiquan and the others. Of course, Hua Xiangyue's junior cousin would be Shen Xiang.

"You mean...this person resembles my junior brother" Wang Weiquan knew that Shen Xiang was an alchemy genius, but he had only heard about it and never seen him in person.

Sun Ying noticed that her daughter was not surprised, implying she knew already. She approached Liu Meng'er and asked, "Meng'er, do you think so too"

Liu Meng'er nodded. "Once you've seen him create an alchemy, you'll understand. His manner while creating it is exactly the same as this person."

"But we still can't be certain. Although my junior cousin likes to cause trouble, he should know the current situation here. He's known for his Blue Dragon Slashing Demon Saber and was rumored to have returned from the dragon emperor, so he must ponder whether or not to come," Hua Xiangyue said.

"This person creating alchemy is indeed different. He looks like he's entertaining himself, unaffected by the atmosphere of the arena." Wang Weiquan stroked his chin. "If he's truly my junior brother, then wouldn't Xuan Yun be far behind him After all, she's his senior sister!"

"If Mother loses to her junior brother, what would she do" Hua Xiangyue inquired, smiling mischievously.

Wang Weiquan's face was serious. "Wait and see."

As they discussed, loud cheers erupted outside. Shen Xiang had already opened his pill furnace and was creating ten 'Five Elements Profound essence Pills' in one go, producing sixty pills. His control impressed many alchemy immortals silently.

Shen Xiang's score reached three hundred and sixty points, pressing down on the hearts of those alchemy immortals who were envious. They yearned to crush his water jar pill furnace into pieces, preventing him from creating any more pills.

Even if they did break the furnace, Shen Xiang could still create pills without it, making that his other secret skill.

The elders of the Ten Thousand Alchemy Immortal Kingdom had beads of sweat on their foreheads. This was only after half an hour, and already he'd created so many ingredients. The competition would last a day and night!

Shen Xiang was still full of energy, looking as if he could continue fighting for seven days and nights!

After the competition started, Shen Xiang had created sixty 'Five Elements Profound essence Pills', totaling a thousand and eighty points. Each pill was six in number, neither more nor less.

The second place belonged to the elderly dragon family member, with four hundred and thirty-two points. Shen Xiang had a score more than double hers!

The third and fourth places were consistently occupied by Li Tiejun and the Azure Cloud Immortal Alchemist, sometimes one third and sometimes the other third. Their scores were very close to each other.

Shao Xuanyun was in fifth place, very stable and with other alchemy immortals always scoring slightly less than her.

It was soon dark, and everyone remained enthusiastic about the competition until late night. No one left the arena, while Shen Xiang kept showing his brutality and leaving other alchemy immortals far behind.

After ten hours, Shen Xiang had created six hundred 'Five Elements Profound essence Pills', creating many alone and with the quality of his pills being very high. The other alchemy immortals were unwilling to touch them because they knew the quality was poor, but when in Shen Xiang's hands, each batch produced six pills.

The sky was now bright. It wouldn't be long before the competition ended, and on the updated score list, Shen Xiang already had over ten thousand points, leading everyone by a large margin. The alchemy immortals were now used to seeing him dominate, and he was regarded as a pill-maniac in their eyes!

"Time's up!" Hebei Qing announced.

The first place belonged to Shen Xiang, there was no doubt about that. The second place went to the dragon family alchemist, Long Peirong, also known as that elderly woman.

The third place went to Li Tiejun, fourth to Azure Cloud Immortal Alchemist, and fifth to Shao Xuanyun. This was the initial ranking, while the scores were different later on.

Alice Immortal Alchemist did well enough for fourth place, but her expression was unchanged and she didn't show any emotion. She had deep scheming abilities. Although Shao Xuanyun didn't enter the top three, she was very satisfied with herself because no other alchemy immortal could surpass her.

"The top three can take away the pills they've created before, while those not in the top thousand should leave the arena自覺ly," Hebei Qing said.

Although those in the top three could take away those pills, there were over ten thousand alchemy masters creating them. The Ten Thousand Alchemy Immortal Kingdom didn't lose any money.

"Please rest first, the second round will start after an hour. We'll announce the rules at that time too. I can tell you now that only ten alchemy masters can enter the final round," Hebei Qing's words shook many alchemy immortals' hearts.

Out of the remaining thousand alchemy masters, most were high-level alchemy masters and there was a large number of alchemy immortals. However, only ten slots were available for the final competition to claim first place!

Now, it could be confirmed that at least five alchemy masters would have no pressure in the final competition, which were the top five!

However, Shen Xiang didn't think so. Because this first round competition was to his advantage, the alchemy pills he created were not of high rank. If they were Heaven Rank and had an average rank, it would put him under pressure.

"If he's truly my junior cousin, the next rounds might not be good for him!" Hua Xiangyue frowned. "Following normal progression, the next round of pills will be high-level ones. Low-rank pills can't allow alchemy immortals to perform their best, but my junior cousin is still young. He can't create high-level pills, it's rumored that he can only create Heaven Rank low-end pills at most."

"King of Ten Thousand Alchemy Immortals has no plans to give away his precious divine cauldron, so he must create a seemingly fair rule that benefits alchemy immortals. He wants all his Ten Thousand Alchemy Immortal kingdom's alchemy immortals to gain those ten spots, making a last push for first place. This way, he wouldn't lose his divine cauldron," Wuchang Hong said bitterly. "Even though the regulations don't allow organizers to participate, who doesn't know there are alchemy immortals sent by him"

"Junior, is that broken divine cauldron so important You look as if you're willing to risk everything!" Huang Jintian whispered.

"It's very important. You'll understand later,"

Shen Xiang had the map of the Pill Emperor. If he could find the lid of that divine cauldron where it was, then he would have a complete Divine Cauldron. He wanted that divine cauldron not only to prepare for the rebirth of the Vermillion Bird Divine Tool but also eagerly awaited how things would turn out after he collected all four Divine Tools.

"I thought you were going to use that divine cauldron for dragon soup!" Huang Jintian smiled. The internal capacity of that divine cauldron was vast, able to melt large objects. It indeed was a very magical place, and Huang Jintian also wanted to have such a large melting space treasure.

"Xiangyue girl also came, I saw her standing in the arena for a long time and then going to the VIP box. She should be meeting up with your senior brother, judging her appearance, she might have recognized you,"

If Hua Xiangyue came, recognizing him was normal. He wasn't surprised.two might get into trouble. You're definitely going to die from her tricks... " Liu Meng'er said, her face turning red. Her voice became weak as she continued: "When true energy cultivators combine, t...
