Chapter 178 The Battle of Alchemists
The events that occurred at Yunbang Square spread throughout the entire Fist God Inner Court the very next day.
As expected, everyone showed surprise at this matter.
You have to understand how strong the Spirit Medicine Gang is, and Pu Feng is a third-grade alchemist, yet he lost to Leng Yun!
As a result, everyone became even more curious about Leng Yun's identity and background. No one knew just how powerful a family could have nurtured such a talent as Leng Yun.
If these people knew that Leng Yun was just a member of a small, ordinary family in the Northern Territory, they would probably gape in astonishment.
Due to everyone's curiosity, the competition between Leng Yun and Zheng Kang had become a hot topic in the inner courtyard.
Everyone was watching this battle closely, as both sides were extremely eye-catching.
One is the top alchemist in the inner academy and the 15th ranked boxing champion.
The other is a dark horse that emerged this year, possessing the ability to shock everyone time and time again.
Within the inner court, the camps supporting the two were roughly the same.
The opinions that Leng Yun won and those that that Zheng Kang won are roughly split evenly.
For three days, the most talked-about topic in the inner courtyard was this competition.
In the end, the commotion became so great that even the academy's elders were alerted.
Elder Shi from the Alchemist Academy said he would personally judge the outcome of the match between the two.
Qin Feng then personally sought out Leng Yun.
"Junior Brother Leng Yun, you were too careless. I told you to keep a low profile, but you still provoked the powerful Spirit Medicine Gang," Qin Feng said.
Leng Yun gave a bitter smile: "It's not that I want to provoke them, but these people insist on coming to my door, so naturally I can't back down."
Qin Feng warned, "This Zheng Kang is the most skilled alchemist among the academy's disciples. He has extensive connections and considerable strength. You should be careful."
Leng Yun nodded. He wasn't worried about connections. People were happy to help Zheng Kang simply because Zheng Kang was an alchemist.
If Leng Yun really defeats Zheng Kang, then naturally all these connections will be transferred to Leng Yun.
As for Zheng Kang's strength, that's what Leng Yun is worried about.
After all, he was a top fighter ranked 15th on the boxing leaderboard, capable of beating Park Feng to a pulp.
Therefore, even Leng Yun wasn't confident that he could defeat Zheng Kang through sheer force.
"You need to be careful. Even if you win the alchemy competition, you'll be in danger if Zheng Kang gets angry and challenges you to a duel," Qin Feng warned. "Actually, Zheng Kang is alright, but his brother Zheng Guo is a true master, a freakish existence."
Leng Yun had already anticipated what Qin Feng said, but if he wanted to climb higher and get closer to the core of the Fist God Academy, then he would encounter these things sooner or later.
Only by getting close to the core of the Fist God Academy can one secretly obtain information about the Ganling Grass.
"What level of expert is this Zheng Guo?" Leng Yun asked.
Qin Feng shook his head: "I don't know now either. He has been in seclusion cultivating, but before he went into seclusion, he had already reached the 8th level of the Spirit Martial Realm. I don't know if he can break through this time."
The eighth level of the Spirit Martial Realm was indeed difficult for Leng Yun to handle.
Leng Yun needs to level up two more times before he can fight his opponent.
Thinking of this, Leng Yun couldn't help but sigh that the people on the Inner Court Boxing King Ranking were simply too powerful.
……
Day 3, East Square of Fist God Academy.
It was already packed with people early on, a sea of heads.
Everyone wanted to see the excitement, since the alchemist competition was much more interesting than ordinary martial arts competitions.
Two more alchemy furnaces have appeared in the square. Leng Yun's furnace is still very luxurious, with an antique look and a high price tag.
On the other side, Zheng Kang's alchemy furnace also looked extraordinary, but compared to Leng Yun's, it instantly paled in comparison.
At this moment, an elder appeared on the arena. He was Elder Shi, the dean of the 'Alchemist Academy' in the inner courtyard.
Elder Shi was a fifth-grade alchemist and a very important figure in the Fist God Academy.
It can be said that he made a very significant contribution to the Fist God Academy.
The Fist God Academy established the Alchemist Academy specifically to train alchemists among its disciples. It is important to understand that having a team of alchemists would significantly enhance the Fist God Academy's status and power. Even if this force were to expand across the continent in the future, it would still be a product of the Fist God Academy.
Therefore, Fist God Academy can gain a lot of benefits from it.
Over the years, Elder Shi has not encountered any masters. The only one who is comparable is Zheng Kang, who is the only disciple who has reached the fourth-grade alchemist level.
From the moment Elder Shi discovered the Qi-Boosting Pill, he had been secretly watching Leng Yun.
Because anyone who can invent a elixir must be a genius.
Elder Shi became even more confident after Leng Yun easily defeated Pu Feng, so he volunteered to be the referee for this competition.
Now, Elder Shi held two golden scrolls in his hands and handed them to Leng Yun and Zheng Kang under everyone's watchful eyes.
"Today, we will compete to refine the fourth-grade pill, the Golden Dragon Pill. After consuming it, a person can temporarily transform into a golden dragon in water," Elder Shi said, glancing at the two of them.
The audience below was speechless. Everyone knew that this kind of pill that could transform people was much more difficult to refine than ordinary pills.
"The prescription has been given to you, and there are two sets of medicinal herbs on your tables. This means each person has two chances, and the time limit is three hours. Let the competition begin now," Elder Shi announced loudly.
As soon as these words were spoken, a deafening roar immediately erupted from all around, with cheers for the two men rising and falling in unison, neither vying for the top spot.
Murong Qin stood quietly in the middle of the crowd, her face still showing no emotion, seemingly uninterested in the upcoming match. She pursed her alluring red lips, revealing two cute and sweet dimples on her cheeks.
On the other side, at the front of the Spirit Medicine Gang's group stood Xiao Cheng, next to Pu Feng, whose face was bruised and swollen.
Because of his agreement with Leng Yun, Zheng Kang did not lay a hand on Pu Feng.
Zheng Kang himself was well aware that if Leng Yun lost, he would still be tortured by Zheng Kang.
On the other hand, this might turn out to be a blessing in disguise. If Leng Yun wins, he can get rid of the Spirit Medicine Gang completely.
He was originally a humble person, but he was actually incompatible with the Spirit Medicine Gang. He had long wanted to leave the Spirit Medicine Gang, but he had never had the opportunity.
As they were talking, the two people on the stage began to move.
Zheng Kang lit a red flame under his alchemy furnace, and the temperature of the furnace gradually increased.
At the same time, Leng Yun also released his Five Elements Fire and began to scorch the alchemy furnace.
The appearance of the two flames caused the surrounding temperature to rise significantly.
The already sweltering environment became even more unbearable, and everyone broke out in a sweat.
Just like before, Leng Yun's flames once again suppressed Zheng Kang's flames and dominated the entire arena.
