In terms of value, Shen Xiang's five Essence Pill pills were worth the most. He successfully passed this stage again and remained perfect, causing those sixth-stage alchemists to be extremely envious. They secretly felt ashamed that they couldn't even match a teenager, and the other party was only a fifth-stage alchemist with low status.

Despite their jealousy, these alchemists still knew that Shen Xiang's foundation was impressive—he could maximize the effects of his pills. From his solid foundation, they could see Shen Xiang's prospects in alchemy.

After the second round, many people left from the junior and middle stages. Only five were eliminated from the senior stage. Now, it was third round. Although the alchemists could pass through this stage now, they were still nervous to no end, especially those who barely managed to pass. They felt this during the second round and could only imagine how stressful the third would be.

Wu Qianqian and Yao Haijing passed through with ease. Wu Qianqian made two Essence Pills, while Yao Haijing only managed one. Their quality was top-notch, shocking even the old-timers! In terms of results, they were impressive for their stage.

The three alchemists from Tai Wu Pavilion could also make Essence Pills of high quality. This made other alchemists marvel at the skillfulness of Pill Elder's teachings. They believed that Shen Xiang, Wu Qianqian, and the others received guidance from Pill Elder, allowing them to know how to make Essence Pills without using Spirit Crystal Milk.

“Third round—this round requires a bit of luck. If you're unlucky, it might be very bad for you!” Li Lady's lips curled into an odd smile that sent chills down the spines of the alchemists.

“The junior stage and middle stages are now entering the final round of competition, determining who finishes first. The rules involve using Spirit Fragrance Peach Source's furnaces to make pills, with the pills provided by Spirit Fragrance Peach Source. The junior stage is making Great Essence Pills while the middle stage makes Essence Pills. Now, choose your furnaces using a lottery,” Li Lady said.

The junior and middle stages were filled with furnaces that looked extremely cheap. Alchemists could only sigh at the sight. Using such furnaces to make the hardest pills seemed like complete torture, especially with time limits attached! Indeed, finals were the most difficult. Shen Xiang felt immense pressure at this moment as he realized that these furnaces were even worse than his own. This would surely affect his performance.

“Senior stage is taking a rest, you're participating in the fourth round of competition,” Li Lady said.

The senior stage was going to have its fourth round, which made Shen Xiang and his fellow alchemists secretly despair.

Each furnace had a number on it, and when the lottery numbers were called out, alchemists could choose their corresponding furnaces. If unlucky, they would receive a broken furnace and would certainly lose.

“Damn, aren't these furnaces broken when other people's pills explode How can you make pills here!” Shen Xiang cursed under his breath, and other alchemists complained as well.

Shen Xiang saw a tragic man pick the worst number, showing him an ancient furnace full of cracks. This man was doomed.

These alchemists were heavily supported by their factions or families, and they usually used high-quality furnaces. Suddenly switching to a cheap furnace was challenging for their foundations, revealing how they would perform without good furnaces.

"Shit kid, when you reach inside the box to draw lots, take ones that feel cold," said Fairy Hu Xiangyue. Her words echoed inside Shen Xiang's mind.

Although he couldn't see Fairy Hu Xiangyue, Shen Xiang felt her excitement. Although this seemed unfair to other alchemists, he was content as the youngest and weakest among them.

“He's upstairs,” Dragon Xuyi reminded Shen Xiang. Shen Xiang immediately looked up but didn't see Fairy Hu Xiangyue, only catching a glimpse of her radiant eyes through the window slits.

Cuimen er hid where she was and sighed in relief. "This ** kid found out you were here, impressive consciousness!"

Fairy Hu Xiangyue was also surprised. "It seems this ** kid's abilities are deeper than I thought."

"Xiangyue, did you give him a good furnace" Cuimen er asked.

"No way. This kid wanted an advantage, so I'm giving him one instead—making him draw a bad furnace. Even if I use that kind of furnace, it's tough work, and this kid will probably explode his pill," Fairy Hu Xiangyue laughed.

"You're so bad. If he loses, he'll hate you!" Cuimen er worriedly said.

"This kid won't lose at all. Watch," Fairy Hu Xiangyue said, never one to gamble but now suggesting it.

Cuimen er wasn't sure, but she shook her head anyway.

The senior stage presented fifteen furnaces, with the middle one full of cracks like it would explode if touched. Shen Xiang and other sixth-stage alchemists instantly broke out in cold sweat—the one who received that furnace would suffer misfortune.

Li Lady said, "The senior stage third round requires the creation of Beast Pills. Please use these furnaces for this competition! Please treat these furnaces with respect as you'll also be using them in the final round," causing the senior-stage alchemists' spirits to plummet.

The fourth round should be the hardest, but using such trash was a nightmare for many alchemists. Shen Xiang guessed that Fairy Hu Xiangyue had planned this.

“Shen Xiang, you draw lots first since you were the first in the past two rounds. You have a priority,” Li Lady said.

Shen Xiang was delighted, knowing that Fairy Hu Xiangyue had already arranged for him. He'd seen all fifteen furnaces and didn't notice any good ones, but he still trusted Fairy Hu Xiangyue.

Shen Xiang reached his hand into a box and quickly sensed coldness. He immediately grabbed the lot, then pulled out his hand.

“It's lucky that I drew number eight… ** you…" Shen Xiang cursed, realizing he won. The worst furnace was his! He was furious, not expecting Fairy Hu Xiangyue to trick him and make him draw the worst furnace.

The senior-stage alchemists were overjoyed and relieved. Their most hated person had drawn the worst furnace, and they could see Shen Xiang's pill explode, making them feel better.

Shen Xiang cursed as he made his way over and carefully held the piece of trash in his arms. He returned to his spot, then looked at Spirit Fragrance Peach Tower's distance away and gritted his teeth. He glared, his eyes filled with anger.

“Bitch, I'm going to rip off your clothes someday. Otherwise, you won't get rid of my hatred!” Shen Xiang silently said to himself.used for a short moment, but he needed to use it at any time, so he had to control his consumption.He kept changing locations and adjusting himself, using the spatial domain multiple times.
