Jin Rou was also stumped to see this. He thought that he could minimize the effect of the weakest flame he had to refine the ingredients at least for a minute. But to his surprise, it did not even needed a minute, only three breaths was enough! Within those breaths, the entire ingredients were already refined, and had already been merged without having incompatibility problems. The process was so smooth to the fact that the crowd was looking at him like he was a monster they were most afraid of.
"Hai.." Jin Rou sighed, "It seemed that I underestimated my White Incinerating Flame, oh well.. This might already convince her."
This was not the first time Jin Rou had concocted a pill. In fact, before he became the Celestial King, he already concocted the best pills their realm could offer! Of course, it was only indoor and only his family was present since he was really not allowed to go out. Since his father was an adept in concocting pills also, he was the judge of every pills Jin Rou made. After all, his father was planning to make him the Celestial King at a very early age. A King should have the knowledge and skill of each Jobs.
Jin Rou could be ignorant about any things but when it came to Jobs? Heh. If he claimed second, no one would dare to claim first!
Furthermore, the pills that he was concocting was all Heavenly-tier Epitome pills which could only be possibly concocted by 9-star Celestial Alchemists. In the Path of Alchemy, even his father admitted his inferiority to his son himself! Because the slowest concocting time of Jin Rou was a universe-defying 1 minute! This was already slow. What's more, at that time, Jin Rou did not use the strongest flame he had! If he used the his strongest flame and took it seriously, wouldn't it be terrifying?
If not for his family strongly restricted his freedom, he might already took the exams for the Celestial Jobs. Well, the family could invite the leaders of each Celestial Jobs if they wanted to let Jin Rou take exams, but the grandparents opposed this to their bones for some reason.

"How is this possible.." The most shocked and affected was of course, Ma Han. Her face paled from fright this time. This.. was completely ridiculous!
"Well, it's possible. I did it. So you lost the bet. I don't care if you don't give me the official title of Master Alchemist or whatever as long as you pay the four million diamonds and other stuffs." Jin Rou said passively.
Gum Xuan could not help but tremble his legs upon seeing such incredulous sight. "This is.. insane."
Not only Gum Xuan was the one reacting this way, there was no exception at all! If they were greatly affected by the flame control a while ago, this scene made them almost lost their wits and turned insane!
What's happening with this world?!
Bingye Feng could only sit from standing due to her knees trembled so violently that it was almost not under her control. Even she, as someone with a high position, could not help but stare at Jin Rou like he was some God!
"No.. this is impossible. This is impossible!" Ma Han chose not to believe this or she could not bring herself to believe this reality. "You bastard! You cheated! Cheated!" She stopped her refining and point accusations to Jin Rou.
"Me, cheated?" Jin Rou chuckled, "There are so many people who witnessed it, how could I cheat? And what's more, if I cheated, why the set of ingredients I took from you was already gone? It just means I already refined them!"
"But I did not see you using a cauldron! How could you concoct one.. HUH?!" Ma Han still not backed down.
Thinking about this, the crowd who the whole scenario shivered. That lad had really not used a cauldron!
"Do I need to use a cauldron to refine them? In my case, I don't need one." Jin Rou replied.
"Nonsense! Whatever you say is nonsense! There is no such thing so you cheated! The bet... the bet.. is off!" Ma Han stuttered. Even she could not believe what she was saying. But what she could do? She could not afford to lose four million diamonds just for this.
She added, "Be thankful that I cancelled the bet or else you will suffer miserably!"
Hearing this, the frightened crowd could not help but smiled wryly upon seeing this more shameless act. They were more disappointed by this old lady that should already had tons of experience.
Jin Rou only stood there motionlessly.
Gum Xuan had already recovered his wits and hurriedly said, "Ma Han, what are you saying?! It is clear as day that you lost! Although I still could not find it believable, the reality was forcing us that it really happened. But why are you keep on making excuses? You have already done so much that brought shame to our Alchemy Tower. Will you die if you don't add more and more?!"
"This is none of your business." Really, this Ma Han had renege the bet and shamed her tower.
What a disgrace. Everyone thought.
She was about to turn her back and leave when a bone-chilling voice suddenly rang everyone's ears that made them trembled. "You are calling off the bet because it was not in your favor? How shameless. Pathetic vulgar creature."
This voice came from Jin Rou. Everyone who heard this suddenly felt a chill running down their spines! The atmosphere was getting tense also.
"Humph." Ma Han snorted and seemed not intimidated, "So what if I am calling off the bet? Since I was the one who proposed this, I have the right to cancel it! You got a problem with that? Come and bite me!"
Ma Han released her aura, a Sky Realm, sixth stage cultivator!
"Heh." Jin Rou sneered, "I can't believe such a side character like you can say that. How amusing. But I will give you a chance again since I am magnanimous."
"Pay the four million and other stuffs and all is well. This is your last chance, vulgar creature."
This voice was so bone-chilling that everyone could not help but hold their breaths with paled expressions.
Gum Xuan had an ominous feeling about this so he immediately advised her, "Ma Han, pay it or elseyou can really bring catastrophe to our tower!"
He actually felt that this young man was not so simple as he was. The radiance he was emitting was suffocating that it rendered him unable to do something about it. It was like something was choking him to death. The air was being thinner and thinner.
However, Ma Han did not choose to concede, "Me, a vulgar creature? You think I would be intimidated by your show off? Hahaha. Such a jerk!"
This Ma Han, was really pushing her luck too far!
Gum Xuan was about to scold her when suddenly Jin Rou do something that rendered him tongue-tied and trembled, "I gave you a chance yet you again and again chose the hard way. Do you believe that I will not spare your dog life?"
"You think I would be-" She was about to said something when..
BOOOOM!
Ma Han who was standing there a while ago, was sent flying like kite with its string snapped, splashing bloods everywhere upon its way. She hit the wall of the hall and made a huge crater on it!
"Pull." Jin Rou said coldly. His eyes were emitting a massive killing intent!
Suddenly. Ma Han who was rendered immobile began flying again but towards Jin Rou!
SNAP!
Jin Rou held her by the neck without giving the her any chance of retaliation and said ice-coldly, "Such a pathetic mortal like you dared to renege your words in front of me?"
