Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 177 - 167: Do You Have Any Objections?

Qin Qing’s movements were like clouds flowing through water, with Spiritual Patterns forming between his ten fingers and then being imprinted into the Alchemy Furnace.

The already formed Elixir embryos became imbued with spirituality after the successful branding of Spiritual Patterns, with Gang Patterns gradually condensing and appearing on them, becoming more and more infused with Life Essence.

Finally, with a gentle pat from Qin Qing, a burst of Elixir’s cry came from the Alchemy Furnace, as he reached into the void with one hand.

A vigorous Life Essence came rushing towards him.

A series of golden Elixirs enveloped by Gang Patterns flew out of the Alchemy Furnace, smooth golden beads wrapped in Gang Patterns, exuding a strong Life Essence and Spiritual Power.

They quickly flew into the Jade Bottle that Qin Qing had prepared in advance for the Elixirs.

It was done!

On the other side, Fang Yi was also at the most critical moment.

He was still fully concentrated on engraving and branding Spiritual Patterns, completely unaware that Qin Qing had already succeeded in pill concoction.

About a quarter of an hour later, Fang Yi also began the step of extracting Elixirs.

"Swish swish swish swish swish..."

A series of Elixirs flew out, being collected by Fang Yi into the Elixir Jade Bottle.

After completing this step, he exhaled satisfiedly with a long breath.

He then looked towards Qin Qing with pride...

However, what he saw was Qin Qing already standing there, motionless.

"Hmm?"

Fang Yi was slightly startled.

He then let out a sneer.

"Failed, didn’t you?"

"I said it, at such a young age, could you really concoct Third Rank Elixirs?"

Fang Yi shook his head, full of disdain.

"Miss Hongxue, Master Chen, I have concocted the Elixirs, and I think there’s no need to continue this competition!"

The response he received, however, was the look from Hongxue and Master Chen as if they were staring at an idiot.

"Fang Yi, since you have succeeded in Alchemy, please hand over the Elixirs!" said Master Chen.

"Uh..." Fang Yi quickly nodded and handed over the Elixirs.

Passing the Elixirs to Master Chen, Fang Yi said with an apologetic smile, "Divine Might Pills, twelve in total, the quality should all be acceptable. No materials wasted... hehe, that kid probably failed in alchemy, right? This Spiritual Pattern contest doesn’t mean much."

Fang Yi had an air of triumph about him.

Master Chen glanced at him and said indifferently, "He succeeded in pill concoction before you, and produced sixteen Elixirs in total! As for the quality, you’ll see it for yourself soon!"

"What?" Hearing Master Chen’s words, Fang Yi was immediately dumbfounded.

"He succeeded before me? And he also produced sixteen Elixirs? How is that possible?"

Fang Yi simply couldn’t believe it.

Before engraving the Spiritual Patterns, he had been paying close attention to Qin Qing’s Alchemy process; whether it was selecting materials or melting the ingredients, Qin Qing was quite slower than himself, Fang Yi.

How could he be faster in the end?

And if he heard correctly, this Qin Qing actually concocted sixteen Divine Might Pills?

The standard materials for Divine Might Pills could at most lead to fourteen to fifteen Pills, and even then, it would require a Grandmaster Level Spiritual Pattern Master to reach fourteen to fifteen Pills.

Only a master of Grandmaster Level like Mo Kong could possibly concoct fifteen Pills on a very lucky occasion.

Yet this young man actually refined sixteen Divine Might Pills from the same amount of ingredients?

Fang Yi simply could not believe it.

"Whether you believe it or not, that’s your problem—the process of alchemy was seen by everyone here. Everyone is a witness on the spot, and no one can cheat!" Master Chen said, somewhat displeased.

Fang Yi hurriedly cast an inquiring look around at the others.

The onlookers around him, prior to this, had been endlessly flattering Fang Yi.

But now, they were avoiding Fang Yi like the plague.

Because they had seen a younger, more potential, and in the art of Spiritual Pattern Technique, a Spiritual Pattern Master far more formidable than Fang Yi.

Before, they had flattered Fang Yi, not hesitating to step on Qin Qing, because they thought Fang Yi was more worth getting to know, with more utility.

But now it’s different!

Qin Qing being so young, with such a high level of alchemy skill, choosing between him and Fang Yi to currying favor with should be an easy decision, right?

"This young man is really amazing, he actually refined sixteen Elixirs in a single furnace!"

"Fang Yi, I’m not trying to be offensive, but as the saying goes, the new waves push on the old. This young brother is so young, yet has such an impressive level of alchemy skill, you should admit defeat!"

"Fang Yi, I used to think this young man was being disrespectful to you, but it seems you’re the one who doesn’t know what’s good for you!"

"Is it really that hard to acknowledge someone else’s excellence? Master Fang Yi, although your Spiritual Pattern Technique is quite good, there’s always someone better, heavens beyond the heavens..."

Fang Yi’s face suddenly looked very ugly.

He couldn’t help but look at Qin Qing again, pondering if this young man had taken something like the Youth Preserving Pill that could maintain eternal youth?

Otherwise, it made no sense.

How could someone so young possess such profound mastery in Spiritual Patterns?

"No, that’s not it!" Fang Yi suddenly thought of something, then said, "Master Chen, Miss Hongxue, although he produced sixteen pills, it could just be freakishly good luck. The final evaluation still depends on the grade of the pills, doesn’t it?"

"Alright, next we’ll evaluate the grade of the Elixirs!" Master Chen said, taking out the Jade Bottle of Fang Yi’s Elixirs.

"These are the twelve Elixirs refined by Fang Yi!"

Master Chen poured out Fang Yi’s Elixirs onto a Jade Plate, then carefully examined them.

"Twelve Divine Might Pills—three of Superior Grade, six of Middle Grade, and three of Low Grade!"

"Fang Yi, can you check them yourself for any objections?" Master Chen glanced at Fang Yi.

Fang Yi nodded. In fact, during the pill formation process, which includes the drawing of the Pills, he had already checked the grade of the pills, which was consistent with Master Chen’s inspection.

"No problem!" Fang Yi answered.

This result was also reflective of his normal alchemy level.

"Good, next let’s check Qin Qing’s alchemy results!" Master Chen took out the Jade Bottle of Qin Qing’s Elixirs and poured them onto the Jade Plate.

Fang Yi took a careful look—it was indeed sixteen Divine Might Pills.

And after a closer examination, his heart sank.

Because from that one look, he could roughly differentiate the grades of the pills.

Out of the sixteen pills, more than half were of Superior Grade, and not a single one was Low Grade!

"Sixteen Divine Might Pills—a total of eleven of Superior Grade, five of Middle Grade!"

When announcing this result, even Master Chen’s own voice trembled involuntarily.

Because he was very clear about what this result meant.

At the same time, the way he looked at Qin Qing completely changed!

And the gazes of the other onlookers around Qin Qing also became fervent...

"Fang Yi!" Qin Qing at this point looked towards Fang Yi, "I called you a ’worthless master’ before, do you still have any objections?"
