Chapter 280: Alexs Pill Harmony (1/2)

Han Long felt a load of shock when he saw that the person he wasn't expecting suddenly reached the same harmony level as him.

He looked at Alex, who also looked back at him and smiled.

It was then Han Long realized something was wrong.

The fog increased by one more level. Gasps of shock sounded from around the place. Wan Li looked at Alex with shock in his eyes, let alone Han Long who had just been beaten. The amount of shock he was feeling right now was unreal.

Even Huang Fu seemed to be interested right now and looked at the pill tester which was the center of attention amongst everyone on stage and a lot of audience in the coliseum.

”Woah, Mingming just got 2nd place? Was he always that good sect leader?” Fan Ruogang asked. The rest of the disciples were also in shock, dumbfounded at the harmony his pill had reached.

Recognizing ingredients was one thing, but making a good pill required a different set of skills.

However, Ma Rong didn't recognize this current result and simply said, ”Just watch.”

Another Heaven Grade pill appeared on the stage. Han Long, Wan Li, Huang Fu, the staff, the host, and the audience, all of them were shocked.

”A-Another Heaven-grade pill?” someone said in shock.

”T-That's the second place holder now,” another person said.

”This participant didn't have such a result on the first pill right?” One of the staff asked.

”Nope, he only had a 43% harmony pill,” another staff member said.

”Am I… really out of the third-place?” Han Long muttered to himself.

However, that wasn't the end.

The pill tester hadn't stopped and the fog was still rising. Now, even Huang Fu started getting anxious. His pill was just 2% lower than Alex's. While that was a massive hurdle to pass, it didn't seem like Alex's pill tester was going to stop right now.

Unfortunately for Huang Fu, however, he was right.

Now Alex's pill was 1 step away from having the same amount of harmony as Huang Fu's. He was starting to sweat. He walked a little closer to check the pill tester more clearly and in doing so he caught Alex's eyes who had just looked to the side.

From his perspective, Alex had no sort of tension in his eyes, almost like he didn't care what harmony his pills would get.

No. He realized that wasn't the case. It wasn't that he didn't care what the harmony his pill was going to be, it was more like He knew what it was going to be.

A strange premonition sprung up inside Huang Fu's mind and at the same time, it happened.

The harmony level in the pill tester increased once more. Now, Alex was the first place holder of the competition along with Huang Fu. There were going to be two winners.

”Wow, a random disciple nearly beat the Royal Alchemist's direct disciple?” a staff member said in shock.

”What sect is he from? Can you guys check?” the host said.

”He seems to be from the Hong Wu sect. Ah, no wonder. They are well known for being great in alchemy,” one of the staff members said.
