Rong Xueyi just laughed and giggled, her amusement deepening as she saw Shen Xiang's bitter expression. Now, all Shen Xiang could think about was to give her a good spanking.

"Little dragon, I've decided to starve you for ten days!" Shen Xiang suppressed his anger and clenched his teeth as he said.

"No, I was just joking. Besides, all the foul men are like lustful pigs, and I'm only expressing your inner desires. Don't you see Wu Qianqian looking happy too It's a win-win situation!" Rong Xueyi said proudly.

Thankfully, Rong Xueyi was only pranking Wu Qianqian and Hu Xiuyue. If she had done so in front of Pill Elders or other powerful figures, Shen Xiang would have no life left even if he had ten lives.

Shen Xiang couldn't understand why this little dragon just a few months old was so clever and had the mentality of an adult.

The second day, the Pill Making Grand Competition was held, with over a hundred participants. The competition's rules were strict and required the competitors to make pills in front of many people, which was demanding.

Pill Masters usually make pills in secret rooms where there's a lot of quietness. However, today's competition was on an elevated platform in front of everyone; it required mental strength and endurance. The noisy surroundings around made it hard for the competitors to focus.

Today, fewer people were gathered at the market square, but it was full of people anyway. After all, it was a competition, and everyone wanted to see the excitement. Plus, many heard that Shen Xiang would participate, so they decided to harass him and make it hard for him to focus on the competition.

Shen Xiang couldn't see Yun Xiaodao or Gu Dongchen, the Sect Leader wasn't there either. He secretly despised Zhu Rong and others who didn't even bother to give him a heads-up before leaving. However, Wu Qianqian came to inform him about it, warming his heart. He didn't reject or refuse Wu Qianqian, the most beautiful woman, but instead felt a faint liking for her.

The Pill Elders supervised the entire competition, and when Rong Xueyi's fiery eyes watched them, many Pill Masters felt their spines chill. Everyone feared the mysterious and unpredictable Pill Elder, knowing her ability to banish someone if she was displeased. If she were angered, Shen Xiang would be their warning example.

Although Pill Elder targeted Shen Xiang, it was because he was from the Great Martial Academy. Many believed she intentionally let him in to have a direct way of dealing with him.

"Shen Xiang, why is the Azure Void Fruit growing so fast compared to my expectation," Pill Elder said her voice congealed into threads, reaching Shen Xiang's ears.

"I don't know. No matter how fast it grows, it's none of your concern. I planted it," Shen Xiang responded in the same way, his face filled with pride as he said.

"Humph! Why do you need so many Azure Void Fruits You don't know how to refine them!" Pill Elder said coldly.

"I can eat it, can't I It's my stuff; I do what I want. Can you control me" Shen Xiang smiled, seeing Pill Elder's body slightly tremble with anger. He was delighted, his lips curled upward in pride.

"The Pill Making Competition is starting. If anyone cheats or violates the rules, I'll expel them from Great Martial Academy, pick your spots quickly!" Pill Elder said coldly. Her smart and authoritative voice made everyone tremble, and the square became quiet.

Shen Xiang was about to pick his spot when Pill Elder said, "Since Shen Xiang is standing next to me while making pills, you're cunning. I'm worried that you might use invisible methods to cheat. Let me watch how you make it!"

When other Pill Masters made pills, they were on a large platform in the middle of the square, far from where Pill Elder stood. This made it easier for them to focus. But if they were close, even taking a breath would be hard because Pill Elder gave off a terrifying aura.

Shen Xiang hummed, he wasn't afraid of Pill Elder as she was his senior and had supervised him before.

Just then, a young man around twenty years old walked towards Pill Elder's platform with arrogance on his face. What surprised people was that even though he had this air of pride, the jade amulet on his waist made many stare in shock!

Everyone immediately knew who he was.

"Isn't this Young Pill Refiner, Liu Zhengnan from Medicine King Mountain's Liu Family I remember his name. He's young and has already achieved the True Martial Realm with being a Third Stage Pill Master. It seems that he'll be a famous figure in the future," an old man said.

Shen Xiang heard about Liu Zhengnan from Wu Qianqian last night, and he knew Medicine King Mountain's Liu Family because they had a large number of medicinal herbs and even had the Azure Void Fruit, although they didn't sell it. Liu Family also had many powerful members and was said to have a Nirvana Realm Immortal who didn't die.

"Liu Zhengnan, disciple of Medicine Elder!" Liu Zhengnan gave Pill Elder a respectful salute but still maintained his arrogance.

"What do you want" Pill Elder saw Liu Zhengnan's ugly face and inwardly fumed, but she didn't show it. She thought Shen Xiang was cuter than Liu Zhengnan.

"I passed the True Martial Realm by luck last night. But I've heard that it's forbidden to participate in events for those at the True Martial Realm, but I really want to attend because I'd like to compete with Shen Xiang," Liu Zhengnan looked at Shen Xiang, his eyes filled with a challenging light and contempt, as though saying that he was a Third Stage Pill Master and True Martial Realm, far better than Shen Xiang.

Shen Xiang sighed internally. Although he acknowledged Liu Zhengnan's talent, he was still too young, and he could see that Liu Zhengnan would lose in a disastrous way.

However, to the other disciples, this was explosive news. Liu Zhengnan had entered the True Martial Realm at mere twenty-one years old, although he was two years older than Yun Xiaodao. But because Liu Zhengnan was a Pill Master, people believed he was much more talented than Yun Xiaodao.

"Just making pills isn't anything, I let you attend this competition. But when it comes to martial arts competitions, maybe you should be more cautious!" Pill Elder said淡淡ly. She just wanted to see if Liu Zhengnan would beat Shen Xiang in the end.

Shen Xiang smiled, "Liu Brother is a once-in-a-century genius. It's my fortune to compete with you, since Liu Brother targeted me, let's make a small bet for fun!"

Shen Xiang was going to gamble again. Last time, he won a True Martial Realm disciple and the opportunity to join Great Pill Master Academy by gambling. What would he bet for this time

Pill Elder also found it interesting, although she targeted Shen Xiang all the time, she was also very concerned about him. As soon as she came out of her seclusion, she immediately inquired about what Shen Xiang was up to. Shen Xiang didn't disappoint her, causing quite a stir.

"I agree!" Liu Zhengnan said proudly. Even though Shen Xiang didn't mention it, he would have proposed himself as a True Martial Realm Pill Master, and it was proven by the certification of Pill Fragrance Tower, representing supreme honor.

"As you initiated the bet, what's your stakes" Liu Zhengnan said. He knew Shen Xiang was wealthy and the stakes would be huge, but he wasn't worried since he believed he could win.

Every gambler thinks so.

Shen Xiang smiled faintly, and his palm flipped to hold three shimmering Azure Void Pill beads between his fingers.

Shen Xiang was actually betting with three Foundation Establishment Pills he had!s thing must have been used by an evil cultivator. It's a magical weapon that had been tempered for many years using its own magic. Even the Divine Smith can't create it quickly. Who is this powerful...
