“It seems indeed to be a radish.” Someone piped up.
Everyone was at a loss for words. Fang Lin actually used a speaking radish to break Yang Xuanfeng’s Nine Flying Swords. It was simply too bizarre.
Han Luoyun and Yang Jianye both narrowed their eyes. Their cultivation was exceptional, giving them an extraordinary perceptive ability.
They could tell that what Fang Lin just brought out was not a radish, but a ginseng.
A ginseng with a thickness of an arm, capable of speaking, and impervious to swords and spears. freewebnøvel.coɱ
“Brother Han, seems like your apprentice is stocked with good stuff.” Yang Jianye joked.
Han Luoyun shook his head slightly, “Even I wasn’t aware that the kid had something like this.”
“Oh? Even you, as his teacher, didn’t know? How negligent of you.” Yang Jianye teased.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Fang Lin had a grip on the Boundless Stone, but didn’t use it.
Yang Xuanfeng frowned slightly and the golden light in his palms gradually dimmed down.
“That makes fifteen moves.” Yang Xuanfeng stated.
Fang Lin was momentarily stunned, but then quickly understood. If you count those nine flying swords from earlier, he had indeed taken Yang Xuanfeng’s fifteen moves. Additionally, he even managed to hold his ground without being overwhelmed by Yang Xuanfeng’s attacks.
Regardless, Fang Lin quietly let out a sigh of relief. If the fight had continued, he was certain to lose.
“What on earth?” Yang Yanyu was dumbfounded. Fang Lin actually managed to endure fifteen attacks. This was something she hadn’t anticipated at all.
In fact, nearly everyone present was shocked. Even Yang Jianye hadn’t thought this would be the outcome.
Indeed, Fang Lin managed to withstand fifteen moves. According to the previous agreement, Fang Lin had won.
The gap between the two was significant, and if it had been anyone else, they might not have been able to achieve what Fang Lin did.
Yang Pojun, eyeing a disappointed Yang Yanyu, chuckled and said, “You’ve lost. Hand over the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor.”
With a grimace, Yang Yanyu shot a resentful glance at Yang Pojun, complaining, “The Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor is extremely valuable. Isn’t there something else I could give you instead?”
“No,” Yang Pojun flatly refused, insisting on the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor.
Yang Yanyu was so irritated that her teeth itched. The Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor was exceedingly precious. How could she just give it away? Yet with so many witnesses when the bet was made, even if Yang Yanyu was brazen, she couldn’t simply go back on her word.
“Fine, take it!” Although Yang Yanyu grudgingly handed over the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor from her Nine Palace Bag, her words said otherwise.
Yang Pojun held it in his hands, examining it carefully with a satisfied smile on his face.
“Who would’ve thought? That Fang Lin could hold his ground against Zhao Shenji for fifteen moves. Even I might not be capable of that.” As Yang Pojun spoke, he pretended to place the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor into his bag.
Yang Yanyu turned her head away, looking miserable and unwilling.
However, Yang Pojun did not put the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor into his bag. Instead, he returned it to Yang Yanyu with a smile.
“The Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor was a gift to you from our father. I dare not accept it. Besides, we’re siblings. I couldn’t really take it from you.” Yang Pojun said.
Yang Yanyu stared at Yang Pojun in surprise. Without a word, she took back the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor quietly.
“Thank you, fourth brother.” Yang Yanyu said.
Meanwhile, Han Luoyun and Yang Jianye were having a very similar conversation.
“Hehe, hand over the treasures.” Han Luoyun stretched his hand towards Yang Jianye.
Yang Jianye gave a wry smile. He hadn’t expected things to turn out this way, and now he lost two treasures for nothing.
Under such circumstances, Yang Jianye handed over the two treasures to Han Luoyun with a disgruntled face. His expression was truly unspeakable.
Han Luoyun gleefully received the treasures. At the same moment, Fang Lin and Yang Xuanfeng also returned to the group.
“Father, I have lost.” Yang Xuanfeng saluted and spoke, his voice calm with no emotional fluctuation.
“It doesn’t matter, it was just sparring. There’s no such thing as winning or losing.” Yang Jianye responded.
“Nephew Xuanfeng’s strength is impressive. If my disciple were to compete with you further, I fear he would embarrass himself.” Han Luoyun said with a smile.
Fang Lin rolled his eyes. ‘You’re my teacher, aren’t you? How can you belittle your cherished disciple like that? Although it’s the truth, couldn’t you have been more tactful? Where should I put my face after your comment?’
“Nephew Fang Lin is also remarkable. Despite his young age, he has such impressive abilities. In the future, he won’t be any worse than Xuanfeng.” Yang Jianye praised.
Fang Lin smiled, and saluted, “Thank you, Your Majesty, for the praise. I am flattered.”
Yang Jianye nodded slightly. The more he looked at Fang Lin, the more he liked him. He thought that the kid was good, with unparalleled talent. How great would it be if he could become his son-in-law?

Thinking of this, Yang Jianye cast a glance at Yang Yanyu who was still a bit upset. Internally, he sighed.
That day, Han Luoyun and Fang Lin didn’t leave in a hurry, because Fang Lin wanted to go to the Pill Alliance and participate in the Three Cauldrons Pill Refiner assessment.
With Fang Lin’s current seven layers of Earth Element cultivation, refining most third-grade pills was no longer an issue. He could definitely upgrade his Pill Refiner ranking.
Therefore, Han Luoyun decided to stay a bit longer in the palace. They would return to the Purple Mist Sect together after Fang Lin came back from the Pill Alliance.
The Pill Alliance looked the same as always. Fang Lin took out his Pill Refiner badge and pinned it on his chest. Under the respectful gaze of the guards at the entrance, he walked into the Pill Alliance Hall.
Pill Refiners were still bustling back and forth, looking very busy. As Fang Lin looked around, he noticed that the Pill Alliance seemed to be more crowded than usual. It appeared as if something was happening.
In a corner, Fang Lin noticed several young boys and girls dressed differently. Each of them looked both nervous and excited.
“Excuse me, is something unusual happening here today?” Fang Lin asked a Pill Alliance steward nearby.
The Pill Alliance steward noticed Fang Lin’s badge, recognized him as a Second Cauldron Pill Refiner, and meticulously answered, “Today is the day when the Pill Alliance hosts the open assessment. Those kids over there are all here for the examination. They are from small clans or factions. They haven’t seen much of the world and it’s unlikely that many of them will pass.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin nodded. So, it was an open assessment.
“I heard that for this open assessment, there will be a supervisor from higher up watching over it. But I’m not sure who it will be.” The steward added.
Just then, a commotion came from outside the Pill Alliance, accompanied by shouts and pleas.
Looking outside, Fang Lin saw two plainly dressed youths being stopped by the guard. The boy was earnestly begging to be let in, but the guard would not let him and his companion in.
“How many times do I have to tell you? Both of you are not from Qian Country. You have neither identity nor the qualification to participate in the open assessment!” said the guard coldly.
