C159 Bet

Alchemists Union, outside.

The crowd, who were already waiting to watch a good show, stared dumbstruck at the group of alchemists who were walking out majestically from outside the Alchemists Union.

After inquiring, he immediately found out about Qin Ming's magnificent feat and the Pill Competition this time.

Cheng Dashi's adopted son had a higher status than Qin Ming's disciple!

The news spread like wildfire, causing a huge uproar.

No one knew who Qin Ming was, but knowing that Qin Ming had to take the ninth rank in his first apothecary qualification test, they all knew how arrogant he was.

And Cheng Hui, a young and famous person, who was already a level 6 pill refiner at such a young age, with a high possibility of becoming a pill refiner in the future, was actually willing to compete with Qin Ming's disciple in pill dao?

Did this mean that he recognized Qin Ming's power?

Otherwise, why would he agree to such a competition?

"If Fang Mu loses, in the future, when you see my Alchemists Union's people, you will have to back off. And today, you have to kowtow and admit your mistake!"

Just after coming out, Cheng Hui revealed his intentions.

Since he had chosen to let everyone watch him, how could he not have some bets?

He had already decided on the bet!

"Alright, then what do you plan to do if Fang Mu wins?"

Qin Ming nodded, putting aside the fact that Fang Mu's current pill dao strength was already not bad, what's more, with him here, how could Fang Mu lose?

"He won? "If he can win, then I won't cultivate in the future!"

Cheng Hui looked at the silent Fang Mu contemptuously, and said with complete disregard.

Fang Mu? Qin Ming's disciple?

This guy who popped out from who knows where?

"Alright, it's a deal."

Qin Ming promised without hesitation. When the time comes, he would not go back on his words.

"Since that's the case, let's invite everyone to be our witness!"

Cheng Hui cupped his fists, and smiled at the spectating crowd. With a wave of his hand, a pill furnace appeared on the ground.

A pill refiner would naturally have his own pill furnace.

"Come."

Cheng Hui sneered, a confident smile on his face.

When refining pills, he had never been afraid of his peers!

At least in Thunderfire Prefecture, he was already a peak-level genius.

Fang Mu was startled, but immediately felt awkward.

In these two months, he had always been learning alchemy from Qin Ming.

Even though he felt that his dao of pills had advanced by leaps and bounds, he did not know how his current dao of pills was.

However … To him, a Grade 5 Elixir was something he could refine at will.

If Cheng Hui was only a sixth ranked alchemist, he really didn't have much fear towards him.

It seemed like … This person was regarded as a genius of the Pill Dao, Thunderfire Prefecture had the highest chance of becoming the next Spirit Pill Master, and the guild leader of Alchemists Union, Cheng Hui, was not undefeatable.

But... He really did not have a pill furnace now!

"Bam!"

Perhaps because he had noticed Fang Mu's awkwardness, with a wave of his hand, a pill furnace fell onto the ground and released a dull sound.

As a pill refiner, it was necessary to have a good pill furnace.

He had cultivated a lot of explosive pill furnaces in the past few days, so he was naturally well-prepared.

"Remember, if you can't win, don't tell me I taught you."

Qin Ming did not encourage Fang Mu, but stared straight at Fang Mu, as though he was a teacher testing his disciples.

"We will not disappoint you!"

Fang Mu cupped his fists and bowed to Qin Ming.

Although he had never truly paid respects to Qin Ming as a disciple, Qin Ming's meticulous guidance over these two months had taught him far too many things that he did not even dare to think about in the past.

A lot of things are hard when you're not.

However, if one understood, they would realize that it was nothing special.

"Heh, I really thought I was quite capable."

Shen Jue curled his lips into a mocking smile.

Even he had to admit that he could not compare to Cheng Hui in the dao of pills.

And now, a single person had jumped out and casually defeated Cheng Hui?

Most importantly, this was just a slap to the face of a disciple of the same age!

Disciple!

If even this was won, then wouldn't it make people laugh their teeth out?

"Don't say anymore nonsense, I still want to see what kind of world shocking pill you can concoct."

Cheng Hui laughed, and with a wave of his sleeve, countless medicinal ingredients appeared.

"Dark Yin Grass, Absolute Ridge Flower, the inner core of a water-attribute Demonic Beast …"

As the number of herbs placed in front of Cheng Hui's pill furnace increased, some people started to mutter silently.

"Is he intending to forge a grade-6 pill, Ice Heart Pill?"

Suddenly, an exclamation came from the crowd.

Ice Heart Pill, a grade six medicinal pill.

Its effect was to allow people to enter an extremely calm state. In this state, whether it was cultivating cultivation techniques or martial skills, one would be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort!

During battle, it would allow him to calm down and think, and choose the most advantageous method.

It might not be like healing or cultivation pills, but sometimes, they were even more precious!

After all, many people had been stuck at a certain level for their entire lives, and although this Ice Heart Pill was only an auxiliary pill, it had an extraordinary effect in critical moments!

In other words, although the Ice Heart Pill was considered a supportive medicine, it was definitely not easy to refine among the tier 6 pills, and there were very few who were willing to refine it.

Less, that was why it was so precious.

Even if Qin Ming's disciple, Fang Mu, was really able to refine a sixth grade pellet, compared to the Ice Heart Pellet, the vast majority of sixth grade pellets were slightly inferior.

This choice was as old as the Daoist Canon!

"As expected of Cheng Dashi's foster son, and his direct disciple. The Ice Heart Pill needs dozens of extremely cold things in order to be able to be refined. Furthermore, one careless move would cause a backlash to the heart meridian, yet you actually have the confidence to refine it. "

Not too far away, a person with the emblem of a grade-4 apothecary embroidered on his chest sighed.

"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! The one who is regarded as the most likely to become the next alchemist, how could he be ordinary? Who was this? Fang Mu right, Qin Ming's disciple? How come I've never heard of such a person? "

"You can't say. Princess Mu's friend isn't an ordinary person, right? What if he really won? So, I think highly of Cheng Hui. "

"Come come come, it's time to start! We'll bet on Fang Mu winning 1: 10, Cheng Hui winning 100: 1, we'll play it safe without cheating on each other!"

The discussion was endless and there were even some who wanted to pick up the call to start the game.

But no matter who, they did not think highly of Fang Mu.

Nonsense, if Qin Ming went up on stage, with the fact that he was Mu Shuyao's friend, there might be a few people who thought highly of him.

But now, Qin Ming was going to let his disciple Fang Mu go up on stage. No matter who it was, they all thought that Qin Ming would win this bet.

However, the price for this loss was rather high …

Mu Shuyao on the other hand, looked at Qin Ming with shining eyes, wanting to see through Qin Ming's confidence level from his gaze.

It was a pity that Qin Ming's eyes were as calm as water. No matter how serious she was, he could not see through those eyes that seemed to reflect the stars in the sky.

On the other hand, Fang Mu was currently in a daze.
