The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 380: 380: Who is the Strongest Arena Champion?

What does perfect quality represent?

It represents the full and undamaged preservation of the medicinal herbs’ effects, integrated into the pills, maximizing their medicinal properties.

A Pill Refiner who can produce pills of perfect quality is indeed rare. Each of them is worthy of being called a Master of Pills.

But this Fang Lin, how old could he be? A mere Three Cauldron-level Pill Refiner who’s not even twenty years old can produce perfect quality pills?

You must be joking?

Are you insane?

Are you still half-asleep?

More than one person found it incredible. Many people harbored the same thoughts.

Immediately, some people expressed their doubts. Especially those prodigy Pill Refiners from Yun and Meng countries, they outrightly accused of a conspiracy at play.

They couldn’t accept this brutal truth. Perfect quality pills? It was terrifyingly amazing.

Compared to Fang Lin, the so-called prodigy Pill Refiners from Yun and Meng countries were utterly worthless.

“Silence!” the Pill Alliance Steward shouted, but it had no effect. Many people believed this fact, but some still expressed their doubts.

At this moment, Zhuge Cang suddenly bounded up and flew onto the stage.

Upon Zhuge Cang’s appearance, all sounds below quickly died down.

“I, along with the two deputy City Lords, personally verified Fang Lin’s pills. There are no issues. Are you saying you don’t trust even us?” Zhuge Cang said in a deep voice.

At this point, those questioning voices completely disappeared. Their faces flushed in embarrassment.

The prodigies from Yun and Meng countries felt extremely upset and wished they were dead.

It’s harsh to be compared. These prodigies used to be admired in their respective countries and thought that the world was theirs.

At present, a previously unknown Fang Lin was mocked and ridiculed when testing his talents using the Gold Testing Stone.

But now, he has refined a perfect quality pill, dazzling like a thunder, overwhelming all the genius Pill Refiners there with an utterly domineering attitude.

This was a dominating crush, making them unwilling to resist.

Even the proud people of Yun Country were silent, especially Chu He, whose face turned pale and then flushed. He had previously challenged Fang Lin recklessly, and he was disgruntled after losing.

Now it seemed Fang Lin was a complete master in Alchemy Tao. It was impossible to compare with him.

The people of Yun Country could only console themselves that they still had Zhao Shenkong to save face.

As for Meng Country, the morale was extremely low.

Guo Zhen was defeated by Fang Lin, and it looked like Fang Lin did not exert all his effort when he defeated Guo Zhen.

Guo Zhen sat among the people of Meng Country, deeply upset and holding onto his anger.

In Qian Country, the mood was quite strange.

Li Feng must be the most despondent one among them. The perfect quality pill Fang Lin refined declared Li Jianlong’s failure.

What does that imply?

It means that the Li Family has lost to Fang Lin again!

One defeat isn’t terrifying, but consecutive defeats are hard to accept.

Moreover, Li Jianlong’s second defeat requires the Li Family to pay a cost that might make their ancestors regret.

Not to mention the Heavenly Blue Liquid, now Li Feng could imagine the severe punishment that he and Li Jianlong would face when they return to the family with the Mysterious Golden Sparrow’s essence.

The other people from Qian Country had mixed feelings, not exactly happy or hit hard.

Of course, the person with the most indescribable feeling was Li Jianlong himself, standing face-to-face with Fang Lin on the stage.

No one could imagine Li Jianlong’s feelings at this moment. Many people cast him sympathetic and pitying looks.

He was so pitiful. He had already lost to Fang Lin once in a duel, and this time he had confidently challenged again, only to be utterly defeated.

Li Jianlong looked at the people below, then at Fang Lin across from him. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and then collapsed onto the ground, unconscious.

He had no choice, the shock was too great, causing him to spit blood, Li Jianlong was injured internally.

The injuries were secondary, the main point was that the consecutive defeats might become a lingering trauma in the second half of Li Jianlong’s life, or even possibly, become a Heart Demon when he tries to break through.

Everyone predicted that Li Jianlong’s life and career would be very tough unless he could defeat Fang Lin in the future.

The more talented the person, the harder it was to cope with a failure.

Once faced with failure, one would fall into the shadows, leading to the birth of Heart Demons, causing a vicious cycle.

Of course, if one could overcome the Heart Demon, and consider it a trial, that person would be unstoppable in the future.

But only a few of the true prodigies could do this, who were not afraid of failure.

It was evident that Li Jianlong was not this kind of person. Two defeats had made him spit up blood in anger. He wouldn’t achieve much in the future unless he encountered a big opportunity or defeated Fang Lin.

Li Feng quickly ran over, carried the unconscious Li Jianlong down, and glared viciously at Fang Lin.

Fang Lin just smiled, then under Li Feng’s murderous gaze, he brazenly stored the jar of essence and the Heavenly Blue Liquid in his bag.

Upon seeing this, Li Feng nearly spat out blood. He quickly turned around, carrying Li Jianlong off the stage.

With an expression of surprise still on his face, Zhuge Cang looked at Fang Lin and said, “Young man, you are very good.”

Fang Lin respectfully saluted, “Thank you for your praise, elder.”

“But young man, youth is prone to break easily. It’s better to be low-key.”

Zhuge Cang said this and left. Being the City Lord, it was not appropriate for him to stay in such a situation.

Even so, many Pill Refiners in Black Cauldron City felt envious. They had been in Black Cauldron City for a long time, but none of them had ever spoken to Zhuge Cang. Fang Lin, however, had received praise from Zhuge Cang. It was indeed incomparable.

At this moment, Fang Lin’s brilliance seemed more dazzling than Su Xiaotong and Zhao Shenkong on the other two stages.

Fang Lin did not pay attention to the awed gazes of the crowd. He sat down cross-legged and began to meditate in silence.

This pill refining process had consumed a lot of energy. He had to seize the time to recover, otherwise, he would have trouble facing the upcoming challenges.

But Fang Lin obviously overthought. After witnessing Fang Lin’s methods, no genius Pill Refiners from the three countries dared to challenge him.

“It’s interesting now. Of the three platform masters, two are from Qian Country and one is from Yun country. Now, let’s see who among the three is the strongest,” someone said with a smile.
