Chapter 528 - Chapter 528: Chapter 212: Alchemy Contest – Part 2 (2/2)

it was precisely because of his arrogance that he looked down on Lin Jing and the others.

“`

And Lin Jing agreed to the alchemy competition for this very reason as well.

This man was indeed too arrogant. It would be good to let the two of them have a contest and take the edge off his arrogance…

…

The next day, early in the morning.

Lin Jing, along with Lin Jue and Ye Yun, made their way to the alchemy room on Spirit Rock Island,

Even Little Sparrow was specifically brought along by Lin Jue, claiming it would be of great use.

This alchemy room was the very place designated by Yan Ming the day before as the site for their alchemical showdown.

When Lin Jing and the others arrived at the alchemy room, the rest of the people had already gotten there.

Ji Ling and Ji Xiyue, as well as Yan Ming, Yan Xing and Yan Yue—the two sisters, altogether just these few people.

Since this was a private bet between the two parties, it hadn’t been made public, nor was it suitable to let others know, so it was just them.

Outside the door of the alchemy room, they greeted each other first and exchanged a few pleasantries.

Afterwards,

They opened the door to the alchemy room and entered.

Once inside the alchemy room, Lin Jue and Ji Ling took their places as determined by Yan Ming, each on opposite sides of the room.

The alchemy room was indeed spacious; each took one side, ensuring they wouldn’t affect each other.

As for Lin Jing and the rest, they stood at the entrance of the alchemy room, far away, watching the two perform alchemy.

As this alchemy session was in the form of a competition, naturally there would be a judge.

And as the host, Yan Ming naturally assumed the role of judge.

After the two took their positions, Yan Ming took out two sets of materials for the Green Spirit Elixir and handed them to both Lin Jue and Ji Ling.

Then, he said to the two:

“Both of you have recently been promoted to Fourth Grade Alchemists, so this contest will use the Fourth Grade Elixir Medicine, Green Spirit Elixir…”

“This competition only provides one set of materials, with no time limit, until you produce the elixir medicine or fail.

“The rules of the competition are also very simple, just to see who can produce the elixir medicine of a higher quality.”

“The one with the highest quality wins. If the quality is the same, then it comes down to quantity. If everyone fails, then it’s about who held out the longest.”

Having said that, Yan Ming looked at the two and asked:

“Do you two have any other questions?”

Both shook their heads, indicating they had no questions.

Yan Ming nodded and said:

“Alright…”

“You may now begin alchemy.”

After speaking, Yan Ming stepped back and joined Lin Jing and the others.

Hearing Yan Ming say start, Ji Ling immediately took out his Pill Furnace from his Space Ring and began preparing for alchemy.

Lin Jue, however, was unhurried and turned to Ji Ling, saying:

“Hey…”

Ji Ling looked up at Lin Jue, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, and spoke directly:

“What is it now?”

Lin Jue replied directly:

“I’ve thought about the bet…”

Hearing that it was about the bet, Ji Ling looked up, locked eyes with Lin Jue, and contemptuously said:

“Go on…”

“What do you want to bet? I can get it for you.”

“But the prerequisite is, you’d have to beat me first. I think that’s the issue you should be concerned with right now.”

Lin Jue didn’t care and pointed at Little Sparrow, generously stating:

“I won’t make it difficult for you.”

“If you lose, besides apologizing to my brother…”

“You just need to prepare a few Demonic Beast Inner Cores for my beast pet Little Sparrow; as for what kind of Demonic Beast Inner Cores, it’s up to you. Little Sparrow isn’t picky anyway.”

“If it’s really hard, you can just buy any at Bihai City.”

“How about it?”

“This shouldn’t be difficult for you, right?”

Hearing Lin Jue’s words, Ji Ling’s anger flared again; he pointed at Lin Jue, too furious to speak.

“Fine… fine…”

“Demonic Beast Inner Cores, is it…”

He felt that Lin Jue was deliberately humiliating him.

After that, Ji Ling also spoke:

“My demand is the same. If you lose, you get me a Demonic Beast Inner Core. My beast pet, the Purple Flame Green Fox, also isn’t fussy…”

Lin Jue chuckled lightly, then simply returned Ji Ling’s earlier words back to him…

“No problem…”

“But the prerequisite is, you’d have to beat me first. I think that’s the issue you should be concerned with now.”
