Chapter 191: Alchemy Contest Begins

"Okay, that's settled!"

Luo Mofan sneered, and then the matter was settled completely.

The gambling contest between the two parties instantly aroused the interest of many people present, and they gathered around to watch the excitement.

After all, Luo Mofan was a well-known young genius, with a strong talent in the art of alchemy. He had already entered the ranks of four-star alchemy masters before he was thirty years old.

With such a level, even if it was put in the current alchemy conference with many stars, there would not be many people who could claim to have won!

Now, he was challenged by a teenage boy from the Qingyang City Alchemy Guild. This was undoubtedly like throwing a huge rock into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves, and everyone started a heated discussion.

"He actually dared to compete with Luo Mofan in alchemy. Is he stupid?"

"Yes, he looks only 18 or 19 years old. How could he be Luo Mofan's opponent? I think he is just asking for trouble!"

The discussion in the field was very intense, but the words and actions were all one-sided and did not look favorably on Chen Xiao.

After all, Luo Mofan had already made a name for himself among the crowd, while Chen Xiao was not well-known. Before this alchemy meeting, no one had ever heard of him.

Although they all thought that Chen Xiao was overestimating his own abilities, they still couldn't help but surround him. After all, the two of them represented not only individuals, but also the confrontation between the Snow Mountain City Alchemist Guild and the Qingyang City Alchemist Guild.

"Please be a witness to our competition this time, so that some people will not regret it later!"

Feeling the gazes of the people, Luo Mofan became more and more proud and spoke loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, many alchemists representing various cities nodded in agreement. Even Li Dangxin, who was considered the best alchemist in Tianwu, focused his attention on the two.

Chen Xiao knew Luo Mofan's thoughts and paid more attention to this matter. If he lost, he would be laughed at even more miserably, which was exactly what Luo Mofan wanted.

However, he did not stop this move. Luo Mofan wanted him to lose face in front of everyone, and he had the same idea.

"Follow me, both of you."

An elder of the Tianwu Alchemist Association came to the two of them at Li Dangxin's signal and led them to the venue for the alchemy competition.

This place was open and vast, and could accommodate thousands of spectators. In the center, there were two medicine cauldrons, which was where the two alchemists were refining.

Moreover, this terrain allowed people outside the venue to see the two people's actions clearly.

Everyone came to the square together, surrounded Chen Xiao and Luo Mofan in the inner circle, and Gongsun Yang on the side smiled bitterly.

Luo Mofan had already been promoted to the ranks of four-star alchemists. With his alchemy skills, even he did not dare to say that he could win, let alone Chen Xiao.

Although Chen Xiao's amazing deeds in martial arts impressed Gongsun Yang, Chen Xiao had never shown much of his alchemy skills in front of him, which made him a little worried.

After all, this was no longer a duel between the two of them, but a matter of grievances between the two cities.

If Chen Xiao lost, I'm afraid the Qingyang City Alchemist Guild would be humiliated.

But he still did not speak out to dissuade him, but just watched the development of the matter with some worry, after all, he knew that he could not persuade Chen Xiao.

Another point is that he still had a bit of whimsical fantasy.

After all, he had been in contact with Chen Xiao for a while, and knew that he was definitely not a reckless person. He dared to compete with Luo Mofan, so he always had some confidence and assurance.

At this point, he could only comfort himself in this way, although he knew that the possibility of Chen Xiao winning was extremely small.

"Hmph, let's get started."

Luo Mofan was the first to walk out of the arena and headed straight for the alchemy cauldron on the left.

Seeing that Luo Mofan was already impatient, Chen Xiao also showed an inexplicable smile on his face, and also took a step forward and walked towards the center.

"It's about to start!"

Many alchemists saw that the two were ready, and the scene suddenly became hot, and their eyes were all cast on the position where Li Dangxin was.

This is Tianwu City. If there is a referee for the competition between Chen Xiao and Luo Mofan, Li Dangxin will naturally be the referee.

Being watched, Li Dangxin did not delay for too long and began to talk about the rules: "Since the two of you want to compete in alchemy, then I will be the referee. The rules are very simple. You will refine the elixir together. The one with higher grade and better color will win. If it is the same elixir, the one who completes it first will win."

"The medicinal materials needed for alchemy will be provided by our Tianwu City Alchemist Guild. You just need to tell us and we will get them for you."

Li Dangxin cleared his throat and briefly explained the rules, and then asked the two to propose the spiritual medicine they needed.

Luo Mofan looked at Chen Xiao triumphantly, and said loudly with a little provocation: "I need hundred-year-old ice wood, lotus heart grass... red fruit with a year of more than two hundred years!"

He reported more than a dozen spiritual medicines in one breath, each of which was precious and extraordinary. When he finished speaking, some alchemists were already excited because they found that these medicinal materials were the raw materials for refining the four-star elixir Huangji Dan.

"This Luo Mofan is indeed extraordinary. He is refining a four-star elixir right away, and it is the top-grade Imperial Pill!"

At this moment, the crowd was boiling. Although there were many masters among them, only a few could refine four-star pills. Most of the alchemists had not reached this threshold. Now they could see a four-star alchemist refine it with their own eyes, which would undoubtedly be of great help to their improvement in alchemy.

The exclamations of the crowd made Luo Mofan, who was already proud, even more arrogant. He looked at Chen Xiao with his nose up: "What kind of pill do you want to refine? If you can't even refine a four-star pill, you'd better admit defeat as soon as possible."

Luo Mofan shifted everyone's attention to Chen Xiao again, and they also widened their eyes to see how Chen Xiao responded.

Facing everyone's curious eyes, he just smiled indifferently and said lightly: "When I refine it, you will naturally know. There is no need to tell you directly now."

After saying this, he waved to the elder who provided the materials, motioning him to come over, and then whispered to him all the spiritual medicines needed.

When he spoke, he did not deliberately let everyone hear him like Luo Mofan did, because he thought it was unnecessary to compare at this moment. Once the pill was refined, the doubts of these people would naturally disappear.

Moreover, even if Chen Xiao said the name of the medicine, I am afraid that none of the alchemists here could figure out the pill he was going to refine.

Because this kind of pill was a secret elixir three thousand years ago, and now after the civilization fault, few people can recognize it.
