I Became the Alchemy Master by Picking Up Trash-Chapter 100 - 99: Preliminary Round (Part 17)

Zhang Long’s current mood couldn’t be described as just shock.

"Li Xing junior, you’re also a Healing Master?"

Li Xing nodded, "Level ten."

She’s now certified, openly practicing medicine and selling herbs, feeling absolutely thrilled!

Qian Xiaowu: "Brother Long, you’ve been interning this semester, you missed a lot. Sister Xing covers martial arts, talismans, and healing, incredibly amazing! If I had recognized Sister Xing earlier, I wouldn’t have let Brother Wang challenge her."

Qian Xiaowu’s words touched Cui Tianxiao’s sensitive nerves, "You mean to say that Wang Liang can definitely win against me, and I’m the weakest, right?"

Qian Xiaowu hurriedly smiled apologetically, "No no no, Brother Xiao, I didn’t mean that. The team that cures defiance is all about equal strength, you’re all very strong, without rankings."

Cui Tianxiao let out a "tsk", implicitly agreeing.

Zhang Long and his two friends looked at Li Xing with such fervor that Ye Qingting had to cough lightly to save her:

"Seniors, Li Xing doesn’t have spiritual power, alchemy is not easy. The high-level Healing Red Medicine earlier is made from extremely rare and precious materials. Not only is the cost high, but the success rate is low, so it’s never sold publicly. I hope you won’t spread this around and cause unnecessary trouble for Ah Xing."

Cui Tianxiao secretly pouted. High-level Red Medicine is indeed hard to make, but Xing’s success rate isn’t low at all. When it comes to lying with a straight face, he can’t compare to Qingting.

Zhang Long’s trio nodded with tears in their eyes. When someone lets you use such a precious medicine, what more could you ask for?

Ye Qingting continued, "If you seniors find the medicine effective, you can purchase it at the shop at No. 9 Changan Street, although its effects aren’t as good as this version, it’s definitely worth the money."

Zhang Long: "This shop is...?"

Ye Qingting: "It’s a store invested by the four of us. It sells medicine personally made by Li Xing, as well as various array plates and weapons. We welcome you to visit."

The three nodded in unison, "Certainly, certainly!"

For a martial master, healing medicine is crucial. Even if the regular version has only a tenth of the effect, it’s worth queuing up to buy. After the competition, they must sweep through the shop!

"Crash——splash!"

The earthen wall didn’t hold up long against the blade-covered Golden-swallowing Bird Leader, but fortunately, Qi Ming had already made the Metal Pill as per Li Xing’s instructions.

A huge platinum-colored bird head poked through the wall’s hole, getting punched in the eye by Li Xing. The Golden-swallowing Bird screamed and fell back, bringing the entire wall down with its raised crest feather, causing the shelter to collapse with a crash.

Seeing these metal-bearing bipeds reappear, all Golden-swallowing Birds raised their feathers and screeched, ready for another round of looting.

"Hey, look here——!"

Li Xing stood in front of everyone, spreading open her palms, revealing a handful of shiny gold beans, instantly capturing all the Golden-swallowing Birds’ attention.

Although the weight of these gold beans together was less than that of a biped’s weapon, they were too beautiful and perfectly matched the birds’ aesthetic! Swallowing them would certainly make their feathers glow even more brilliantly, gaining the admiration of female Golden-swallowing Birds!

"Caw——ah!"

The Golden-swallowing Bird Leader initiated an attack on Li Xing, who flicked her hand, scattering the gold beans like heavenly flowers.

All the birds, dazzled by the gold beans, pursued them, forgetting about the bipeds altogether.

They fought over and greedily devoured every gold bean. Li Xing allowed the birds to snatch them, even deliberately tossing some to those who didn’t get any. Soon, every bird had tasted the gold beans.

The leader shook its feathers, flapped its wings in satisfaction, turned its body, its snake-like long neck arched, then remembered Li Xing and the others, approaching them with comical steps.

Elsewhere, other birds also approached with the same stance, gradually forming a surround.

Cui Tianxiao broke out in a cold sweat, "Xing, what did you feed them? It’s not working!"

Li Xing: "Don’t rush, the good show is about to start."

As Li Xing’s words fell, the Bird Leader suddenly stopped, its feathers rapidly closing, shaking all over, and its long neck twisted in an S-shape, writhing painfully.

It then sharply opened its mouth, spitting out a Jar Gold Hammer wrapped in green slime, followed by a "plop" sound as whitish bird droppings sprayed the ground behind its rear.

Not just it, but all the birds showed similar symptoms, with the sounds of excretion ringing successively.

The crowd watched in shock as the birds flapped their wings, vomiting and diarrheaing right before them.

Good heroes can’t withstand three bouts of diarrhea, and Star Beasts are no different. Once intimidating birds were now drained of agility, flailing in their own mess.

Once shiny and beautiful feathers were now filthy. If a female bird passed by now, these males might never stand a chance of finding a mate.

Despite the repulsive scene, Cui Tianxiao felt delight, finally avenging his previous grievance.

"Hahaha, serves you right for swallowing my bow again!"

Ye Qingting curiously asked, "Ah Xing, what kind of medicine is this?"

Li Xing: "Unstoppable Pill. It causes vomiting and diarrhea. Just developed it, never tested it before. Seems effective, just need to improve its taste to perfect it."

The Unstoppable Pill has a pungent, spicy flavor, making it hard to poison in secret. Without the metallic coating, it couldn’t have lured the birds into eating it.

Zhang Long looked at the birds’ miserable state, then at Li Xing’s smiling face, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

"Junior Li, if I might ask, without these birds, what would you have done with the Unstoppable Pills in the selection match?"

As the question arose, Ye Qingting awkwardly looked to the sky, Qi Ming suddenly took great interest in the grass beneath his feet, and Cui Tianxiao lowered his head, almost rubbing his Thunderbolt Bow raw from polishing.

Li Xing scratched her face, shyly saying, "Don’t worry, Brother Long, as a professional Healing Master, I would never use life-threatening medicine on classmates."

Zhang Long, Wang Liang, Qian Xiaowu: Oh, come on!

They were truly relieved they didn’t follow Liu Yuan’s advice to play dirty. If a laxative that even the Golden-swallowing Birds couldn’t handle was used on them, they might even lose their eyeballs!

The medicine may not be lethal, but its humiliating effect equals public execution. Just visualizing the scenario where their diarrhea was broadcast was enough to make them lose the will to continue living, let alone compete!

Seeing the birds were nearing the end of their diarrhea, Li Xing pulled out several jars, handing one to each person, shocking them with her words:

"Everyone, help me collect some bird droppings."

They all responded in unison, "What?"

"Bird droppings! I need them for making medicine!"
