Chapter 1505: Chapter 1505: Loss Decided?
This class might as well be canceled.
Teacher Hui challenges Huang Xiaolong!
A pill concocting duel!
As an alchemist, Teacher Hui would often compete in alchemy with other alchemists, but this was her first ti dueling a new student who had just enrolled.
And this explosive news spread like a plague.
Huang Xiaolong and Teacher Hui left the classroom together.
The students behind them surged forward.
Word of mouth spread, and soon, almost the entire academy was abuzz with excitent.
Teacher Hui led Huang Xiaolong to a resplendent golden palace.
This place was none other than the pill room.
From afar, waves of dicinal fragrance were carried by the wind, pleasing to the heart and spirit.
Fawning attendants lined up outside the palace, and upon seeing Teacher Hui, they respectfully saluted her in unison, “We pay our respects to Teacher Hui!”
Soon outside the pill room, crowds of students gathered, three layers inside and three outside, all curiously watching.
Many students who were in class got permission to co and join the spectacle.
Even quite a few teachers ca over.
One could say that the entire school, both students and faculty, was shaken by Huang Xiaolong and Teacher Hui’s pill concocting duel!
However, most students and faculty mbers at the God Academy saw Huang Xiaolong as a joke. A clown seeking attention.
“Ha ha ha ha~ This guy is asking for death.”
“To humiliate Teacher Hui, he truly deserves to die.”
“It’s a waste of Teacher Hui’s ti.”
“In fact, he’s definitely going to die now. Once the alchemy is over, Teacher Hui will be able to legitimately execute him.”
“Let’s just watch him die, ha ha ha ha~~”
“He’s been too brazen~~ just yesterday, he defeated Zhou Yuying, and now if Teacher Hui executes him, it’s actually a stroke of luck for him. If it were Zhou Yuying’s family that got hold of him, death wouldn’t co so easily.”
…
“Take him to pill room number one,” Teacher Hui directly instructed the attendants, with a stern warning in her cold deanor, “Fulfill all his requirents without any negligence. Provide him with any materials he needs! Rember! If you fail to follow through, I will not let you off!”
Teacher Hui still maintained an imposing presence.
Hearing that, the attendants nodded hastily in fright.
“Our alchemy ti will be the duration of one incense stick. Once you enter the pill room, start the incense. When the ti is up, we’ll et in the dicine appraisal room. I’ve already asked the vice principal to co and personally evaluate the pills. Rest assured, you will not be cheated. Everything will be fair,” Teacher Hui stated coldly as she looked at Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong knew that in the world of gods, the duration of one incense stick referred to the burning of a divine incense, which typically took about three hours from lighting to burning out.
That ant the competition with Teacher Hui would last three hours.
Three hours were actually not enough to concoct top-tier divine dicine.
But!
That was only true for a common alchemist or divine dicine master!
For Huang Xiaolong, three hours were more than sufficient to concoct very high-quality divine dicine!
Led by the attendants, he entered the palace.
Inside the palace were dozens of pill rooms with tightly closed doors.
Huang Xiaolong was led into pill room number one.
To avoid interference, Teacher Hui went to pill room number fifty.
The two pill rooms were also a great distance apart.
Upon entering the pill room.
Inside was a pill furnace.
This pill furnace was engraved with many formations, quite complex.
There were temperature formations, ti formations, fire control formations…
In total, there must be over a hundred formations.
It was a high-level pill furnace.
Not to ntion alchemy, even for an ordinary alchemist to master the use of this pill furnace was extrely difficult.
Even a slight mistake could result in failing to concoct the pill.
‘Heh, this pill furnace is of low quality. Not the top tier. In Thane’s legacy, the pill furnace he used for alchemy had thousands of formations.’
In Huang Xiaolong’s eyes, the Pill Furnace before him was extrely childish, akin to a toy for little kids.
“Hehe, have you ever seen such a quality of Pill Furnace? Can you recognize all the Formations on it?” An attendant couldn’t help but mock Huang Xiaolong.
“You all should just shut up. What status do you have? rely attendants.” Huang Xiaolong rebuked.
As an Alchemist, attendants indeed appeared very insignificant in his eyes.
“You!” A vicious look appeared on the face of that attendant.
Imdiately, another attendant grabbed him, “Alright, let’s not start a dispute. We need to fully cooperate with him, otherwise, if he loses, he’ll find excuses again. Let’s allow him to be complacent for a little while.”
“The incense can be lit now, right?”
Huang Xiaolong nodded, signaling no problem.
Imdiately, the divine incense was lit.
“What dicinal ingredients do you need?”
“Retro Flower, Mandragora Seven Nights Grass, Dew Flower, Heart-Rot Vine…” Huang Xiaolong very adeptly listed so dicinal ingredients.
Although the attendants’ Alchemy skills were not great, they had always been dealing with dicinal ingredients, so they were very familiar with the ones Huang Xiaolong ntioned.
Hearing Huang Xiaolong list these ingredients, they all laughed.
Really laughed.
Because!
These ingredients were all extrely common.
Basically, they were used for refining low-grade dicinal pills.
Huang Xiaolong and Teacher Hui’s alchemy competition was first to see whose concocted dicines were of higher quality.
Now, Huang Xiaolong was actually requesting the most common and cheapest ingredients, which inevitably ant that he would only produce trash dicinal pills!
Moreover, all of Huang Xiaolong’s ingredients were—poison!
Poison of the divine realms!
In Alchemy, it was possible to use poison.
But usually, it was mixed among many ingredients, serving a neutralizing function.
At least, concocting dicine purely from poison was beyond these attendants’ knowledge.
“Hahaha~~ Are you sure, you want these 45 kinds of extrely poisonous divine realm ingredients?”
“Hurry up and gather the ingredients for ! I’m starting refining! Why so much nonsense!” Huang Xiaolong said angrily.
Imdiately, the attendants gleefully went to gather all the ingredients Huang Xiaolong needed.
“We will assist you,” a few attendants said.
Their faces, however, all bore unwilling expressions.
Alchemists did indeed need assistants in their alchemy.
Even Teacher Hui had several attendants at this mont, helping her run errands, cut ingredients, maintain the fire… doing various tedious tasks.
But Huang Xiaolong—
“Get out. All of you get out.”
What?
Sending all the attendants out?
“You…you~!”
The several attendants were practically laughing in anger.
“Forget it, take your ti playing, you’re definitely dood this ti. Actually, we didn’t want to help you with these trivial things, you’re simply courting death! Since you’re aware of your limits, that’s for the best, we’re leaving!”
A few attendants left the Pill room with pleasure in Huang Xiaolong’s misfortune.
Boom~~~~~!
Huang Xiaolong shut the big doors of the Pill room.
Low-grade dicinal ingredients.
All of them were poison.
No need for any attendant’s assistance.
To anyone looking, Huang Xiaolong seed mad!
Completely mad!
It seed that even without starting the Alchemy process, he was already bound to lose!
