Chapter 1224 - Crawl out of This Street (2/2)
Meanwhile, Alchemist Hu grimaced upon hearing Ling Han’s words. He was already quite old, and he had studied alchemy for several million years. Even if he divided this time by 10, the number of years he had spent would still be far above what Ling Han had spent. Yet, Ling Han had actually offered to give him tips? How could he tolerate such belittling?
Although knowledge didn’t care about age, with those capable becoming the masters, Ling Han was still far too young. Moreover, he had only revealed a tiny bit of his skills. That wasn’t enough to convince everyone!
In the end, he could only say, “Grandmaster Ling has such amazing confidence!”
In any case, Ling Han’s performance had proved that he was at least a Level Six alchemist.
Alchemy was similar to cultivation in that those at a higher level were referred to as a senior. However, though there were prodigies who could fight above their tier in cultivation, this was impossible in alchemy. The level of an alchemist was determined by the highest level pill they could refine. Thus, there was no notion of competing above one’s tier.
Since Ling Han’s alchemy level was higher than his, Alchemist Hu had to maintain an att.i.tude of respect. Otherwise, he would be frowned upon by fellow alchemists.
Meanwhile, Yun Yong w.a.n.g and Kang Xiu Yuan smiled happily. They both felt a sense of exaltation.
The Treasure Forest Pavilion had started targeting them for no reason, and they had been on the losing end the entire time. Only at this moment did they turn the tables in a brilliant fas.h.i.+on. How could they not be delighted? This kind of sensation was absolutely euphoric. It reminded them of their time in the small world, where they had traveled around with their master.
At that time, who didn’t beg them to refine pills?
“Hahahaha! Who would’ve thought that the Han Lin Pavilion still had an elite!” There was a long bout of laughter as a man of around 30 years old walked in. He was dressed in an elegant white robe, and he appeared extremely das.h.i.+ng and confident.
“It’s Grandmaster He!”
“He’s He Jingyun, and he’s referred to as the youngest Level Six alchemist! His future is limitless!”
“Heh, forget about that t.i.tle. I know at least 10 people who are younger but more talented than Grandmaster He. However, Grandmaster He is indeed an alchemy prodigy. He became a Level Five alchemist 30,000 years ago, yet he was able to surge forward and become a Level Six alchemist 10,000 or so years ago!”
“That’s incredible!”
“By playing this trump card, it looks like the Treasure Forest Pavilion wants to crush the Han Lin Pavilion!”
“Of course! It’s already reached this stage, so they definitely have to press home their advantage.”
“But… why do I feel like the Treasure Forest Pavilion is going to lose?”
“Same! This young man seems extremely unpredictable. Perhaps he’ll perform a miracle!”
The onlookers were all engaged in spirited discussions, and there wasn’t overwhelming support for He Jingyun.
“Our respects to Grandmaster He!” The alchemists of the Treasure Forest Pavilion all bowed toward He Jingyun. In this world, power was might.
He Jingyun raised his hand slightly, and said, “Rise!” He then looked at Ling Han, and said, “Sir, you’ve only just joined the Han Lin Pavilion, so why embroil yourself in this mess?”
“Heh.” Ling Han replied with an indifferent chuckle. He naturally wouldn’t waste his time discussing such nonsense.
Anyhow, who would know that Kang Xiu Yuan and Yun Yong w.a.n.g were actually his disciples? Moreover, with his protective nature, how could he stand by idly while his disciples were bullied?
No way!
A menacing look appeared in He Jingyun’s eyes. He was indeed a prodigy—a supreme prodigy. Thus, he was extremely conceited, and incredibly p.r.o.ne to becoming jealous.
Now that a younger and possibly equally as talented alchemist had appeared, he was naturally filled with displeasure.
“I’ll compete against you,” he said. “However, the loser will have to crawl out of this street!”
