"One of the three great apothecaries?" Chen Feng sneered. "Of course, Chen Feng admires the other two out of the three Alchemy Masters. However, if it was you, you're not even fit to carry my shoes!"
"Boom —"
The conference room was in an uproar. No one could understand why Chen Feng would say such arrogant words. Only the team leader, Ji Xin, was still sitting in her seat, her fingers lightly tapping on the table in a contented manner.
"Ignorant brat, speak so arrogantly!" At this moment, Xun Qingyang was also furious. He pointed at Chen Feng's nose and shouted, "Do you know what pill refining is? A brat who doesn't know anything dares to talk to me like this!"
Although Xun Qingyang looked to be in his thirties, he was actually already in his fifties or sixties. It was only because he relied on pills to nourish him all year round that he was so young. After decades of refining pills, his attainments in this Dao were extraordinary, even in China, he was one of the top. Thus, he was quite proud of his achievements.
However, Chen Feng actually said that Xun Qingyang wasn't even qualified to help him with the concocting of pills. How could Xun Qingyang put his face in this situation?
"Why? Are you unconvinced?" Chen Feng glanced at him coldly and said with disdain.
"Stinky brat, stinky brat, I want to duel you, I want to duel you to a Dantian!" Xun Qingyang raised his fist as if he was a fanatic who had been violated by his religion.
Chen Feng turned his head with a "hmph" and said unconcernedly, "You want to compete with me? You are not worthy! "
"You're pissing me off, you're pissing me off!" Xun Qingyang spat out a mouthful of blood, looking extremely heroic. After a moment, he turned his head and asked Ji Xin, "Group Leader, are you going to allow this arrogant brat to slander me like this?"
"Cough cough …" Ji Xin pretended to cough a few times as she said to Chen Feng in a disapproving manner, "Chen Feng, since you say that Master Xun's alchemy level is inferior to yours, then accept the challenge from Master Xun and play with him."
Once Ji Xin said this, everyone was shocked and looked at her in surprise. What did he mean by "accept Master Xun's challenge" and what did he mean by "play with him"? Could it be that in the eyes of the team leader, Xun Qingyang was really inferior to Chen Feng?
When Xun Qingyang heard Ji Xin's words, he almost vomited another mouthful of blood. He had always been a scheming person, so how could he not understand the meaning behind Ji Xin's words? He looked at Chen Feng with resentment as he said, "Chen Feng, don't tell me that you don't dare to compete against me?"
"Eh, since that's the case, I'll play with you." Chen Feng sighed and said reluctantly.
"Alright, Chen Feng, since you accepted Master Xun's challenge, I will help you arrange a few judges." Ji Xin shouted, "Great Master Lu, Great Master Zhu, I'll have to trouble you to be my witnesses."
"If the team leader is alive, then we two old bastards should join in the fun." Following Ji Xin's words, two figures pushed open the door and walked in.
"Master Lu, master Zhu." All the elders stood up and clasped their hands at the two of them enthusiastically. However, they became increasingly puzzled, "Even Master Lu and Master Zhu have come out. Looks like the chief arranged the farce this time." "However, the dao of alchemy cannot be faked. Let's see how Chen Feng will deal with his home's dantian."
"Teachers!" Xun Qingyang cupped his hands, but there wasn't much respect in his eyes. His current status was on par with these two.
Seeing Xun Qingyang, the two masters' faces immediately darkened.
"We won't be able to endure the gifts of a master like you if we don't die." Master Zhu said coldly.
"Hmph, this old man looks down on people who forget their roots the most." You actually want to change your mind and go somewhere else, just treat it as if I didn't take you as my disciple back then. " Master Lu's temper had always been explosive, and now he was so angry that he was blowing his beard.
However, Xun Qingyang didn't seem to care about it. He just laughed lightly and ignored the two masters.
"Alright, since the witness is here, let's begin." Ji Xin reminded him.
"Right here?" Chen Feng was stunned as he asked nervously.
"Right here. Do you have any questions?" Ji Xin revealed a strange expression as she looked at Chen Feng and blinked her eyes.
"F * ck, this woman is deliberately teasing me." Chen Feng cursed inwardly, but he hesitated as he said: "This, I thought I was going to the alchemy lab, I..." This... I don't have a pill furnace. "
Hearing Chen Feng's words, the entire audience was dumbfounded. He originally thought that since Chen Feng boasted, he should have some achievements in the field of alchemy. In the end, he said that there was no pill furnace. What did that mean? If an apothecary didn't have a cauldron, it was akin to forging a metal without a hammer, cooking without a pot, or going to bed without a 'spear'. It was just like a scam.
The person who was the happiest was Xun Qingyang. He thought that Chen Feng might really have some real talent, but in the end, he was just a rookie. All of a sudden, Xun Qingyang started to look at Chen Feng with even more contempt.
Master Lu thought to himself, "If you really are a noob, I'll beat you to death."
This time, Xun Qingyang also took out a pill furnace. His pill furnace was completely red, and with a single glance, he could feel a strong heat wave assaulting his body.
Chen Feng's eyes lit up as he exclaimed, "I didn't expect that your alchemy level would be so low, but this cauldron is actually a low rank treasure."
Xun Qingyang smiled coldly with a proud look on his face. He had obtained this pill furnace from a secret realm. Relying on this pill furnace, he would be able to obtain his current position.
"Alright, the pill furnace is in place. I will now announce the rules." With a wave of his hand, a long table was filled with medicinal herbs.
"I have placed a row of medicinal herbs on each side of the table. They are all the same in quantity and type." You can choose any of the ingredients and refine your best pill within an hour. In the end, the result would depend on the grade of the pill. If it is the same pill, then the superior rank will be the first. " Master Zhu explained the rules of the competition.
"Do you all understand?" Master Zhu asked.
"Understood!" Chen Feng answered humbly while Xun Qingyang merely nodded impatiently.
"Then, let the match begin." After which, Master Zhu left the field.
"Brat, just you wait." Xun Qingyang mockingly glanced at Chen Feng before he walked over to the herbs and picked one up.
Chen Feng sneered and followed behind him. He came to the meeting table and changed his direction. He hastily glanced at the medicinal ingredients before casually grabbing them.
The Dou Dan had begun …
Everyone was watching the two's movements with rapt attention, each one having their own thoughts.
