Chapter 223: Breaking Through Adversity Pill Shocks the World
At this time, all the major powers present had basically confirmed that the Breaking Through Adversity Pill must have reached the superior quality level!
Otherwise, it would be impossible.
Many leaders of the major powers were silently transmitting messages to each other.
If they could fight for the alchemy geniuses, none of them would let go.
As for the Feng family, Feng Lie’s expression became increasingly complex.
The thought in his heart was once again stirred up.
The high-ranking elders of the Feng family beside him also showed changes in their expressions.
“If it’s truly a superior quality Breaking Through Adversity Pill, then our Feng family must try to obtain it.”“This kind of talent has unlimited future prospects.”
“If our Feng family can absorb them, we might be able to change our weak position in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.”
“These two people were brought back by Feng Qingya, and they must have registered in our Feng family’s Treasure Gathering Pavilion. We have a natural advantage over other powers in absorbing them.”
“…”
When the high-ranking elders of the Feng family spoke, Feng Baozhao’s group’s expressions suddenly turned gloomy.
At the same time, Feng Mingyan’s eyes became increasingly fearful.
The better Su Jingzhen and Xuening performed, the more Feng Mingyan would have to take the blame.
At this time, Feng Baozhao sneered, “Everyone saw Feng Qingya’s attitude earlier. I’m afraid she looks down on our Feng family too.”
When they heard this, the previous speakers’ faces all showed a hint of anger: “How dare she! No matter what, she’s still a member of the Feng family.”
“Over the years, our Feng family hasn’t spared any resources on her. Any Feng family disciple must prioritize the family’s overall interests.”
“Any personal interests must give way to the family’s overall interests. Letting her go to Linjiang City earlier was just giving her time to think clearly.”
“Now, this matter not only involves the Feng family’s interests but also whether our ancestors can come out of seclusion! How can we let her have her way?”
“Not bad, at least Feng Qingya is still a Feng family disciple. Everything she has is given by the Feng family, and what’s hers is the Feng family’s!”
“…”
The Feng family’s high-ranking elders were filled with righteous indignation, as if they were about to start a fight. In their words, it seemed that Feng Qingya, who hadn’t even spoken, had already committed a grave offense.
When they heard this, Feng Baozhao’s mouth curled up into a cold smile, and he didn’t speak again.
The highest-ranking elder, Feng Lie, furrowed his brows.
“Enough! Let’s wait until this matter is settled before talking. I have my own plans, and there’s no need for you to argue now!”
When the highest-ranking elder spoke, the Feng family’s high-ranking elders quieted down.
Their gazes continued to fall on the judging platform.
Vice President Ouyang and Yao Changsheng both knew that announcing the fourth place would stir up a heated discussion throughout the entire venue.
Yao Changsheng sighed, feeling regretful about Liu Ming’s ranking, but he couldn’t say anything more.
Vice President Ouyang picked up another jade bottle.
“Third place, from the 56th alchemy platform, third-grade pill, Purple Void pill, top quality!”
The 56th alchemy platform belonged to Bai Xiu!
And the top quality Purple Void pill being able to surpass the top quality Enlightenment pill was also understandable.
However, the crowd’s minds were becoming increasingly unsettled.
Su Jingzhen and the others had entered the top two!
As soon as this result was announced, Bai Xiu’s expression on the alchemy platform changed slightly.
But his face ultimately revealed a hint of sigh, and he naturally guessed what kind of pill Su Jingzhen and the others had taken out.
He was unwilling to believe it, but it seemed he had to face reality.
The pride that had been hanging on his face earlier was somewhat retracted.
“Second place, from the 57th alchemy platform, fourth-grade pill, Water Flow pill, lower quality!”
Fourth grade!
The entire Wind Bell Square fell silent for a moment as Vice President Ouyang’s voice dropped.
Everyone’s gaze turned to the jade bottle in his hand, and their eyes suddenly burned with excitement.
“Fourth grade pill!”
“Fourth grade alchemists are extremely rare in the entire Qingzhou region.”
“And it’s a Water Flow pill, which is said to have a certain probability of permanently enhancing a cultivator’s spiritual roots when consumed!”
“Although the probability is extremely low, its value is still immeasurable!”
“But… however, this Fourth grade pill is only ranked second.”
“It seems that the previous speculation has come true!”
“Miss Feng’s two alchemists have really produced a pill of that quality!”
“Haha, this is a reversal of events! I don’t know if it’s good or bad for the Feng family.”
“Some people might not be able to sit still.”
“…”
The Alchemy Conference had only just begun, and only the rankings had been announced, but it seemed that a dark undercurrent had already started to surge on the entire Wind Bell Square.
At this time, in an inconspicuous corner on the edge of the Wind Bell Square, a black-clothed figure was silently watching the scene, with a hint of helplessness in his expression.
“Foutunately, I came personally to take care of this.”
……
As Ye Zhiqiu was Vice President Ouyang’s own disciple, he didn’t say much after reading out the results.
After the Feng family servant returned the Water Flow pill to Ye Zhiqiu’s hands, he picked up the last jade bottle on the table.
His gaze, however, turned to Su Jingzhen and Xuening.
“First place, from the 256th alchemy platform. Second-grade Breaking Through Adversity Pill, superior quality!”
At this time, Vice President Ouyang’s tone was still calm, but it was filled with emotion.
Although he had already guessed this result, when he said it out loud, the scene fell silent once again.
There was no longer any suspense.
Nor did anyone dare to question it.
A second -grade pill with superior quality was indeed comparable to a Fourth grade pill.
If used for consumption, the value of this superior quality Breaking Through Adversity Pill might not be as high as the lower quality Water Flow pill in some aspects.
But it had an overwhelming advantage in terms of collection value.
Rarity made things precious, and ordinary alchemists might not be able to produce a single superior quality second-grade pill even if they refined tens of thousands of second-grade pills.
“That girl was able to easily refine a third-grade pill with top quality, and this unknown kid was able to directly produce a second-grade pill with superior quality.”
“Both are geniuses, and I don’t know what kind of person can teach them.”
“Now, the major powers in Yunmeng City will get busy.”
After a long silence, the people from the various major powers surrounding the alchemy platform once again focused their gazes on Su Jingzhen and Xuening.
As if they couldn’t wait to swallow them whole.
Xuening had never seen such a scene before, and she felt a bit nervous as she took a step closer to Su Jingzhen.
“This is too high-profile, too high-profile.”
“This is really not what I wanted, but Miss Feng’s request cannot be ignored.”
Su Jingzhen’s heart was also filled with helplessness.
At this time, Vice President Ouyang’s gaze turned back to the alchemists on the Lingxiu Pavilion platform.
“Do any of you have any objections to the ranking announced by this old man and the Chief Yao?”
