  At this time, Xu Zihui whispered in Ye Yuan's ear to warn, "Young Master Ren Dong is the strongest person in the Ren Family's junior generation. His age is not past 30, and he already has middle-rank Quasi-Alchemy King strength. It's said that he is already fully qualified to challenge high-rank Quasi-Alchemy Kings. Young Master Ye, it is best not to act without due consideration."

  Xu Zihui had stayed in Wu Fang City for many years and was deeply aware just how difficult it was for a top alchemist to be born.

  Based on Ye Yuan's age, he absolutely had no possibility of winning Ren Dong.

  Rather than everybody looking bad, he might as well remind Ye Yuan a bit, to avoid this unnecessary conflict.

  Ye Yuan's current soul force already reached middle-rank Quasi-Alchemy King standards. Within Quasi-Alchemy King this realm, it was not possible for anybody to be his match.

  Towards such competition, he really could not arouse much interest.

  Hearing Xu Zihui's high praise, Ren Dong could not help being pleased with himself in his heart.

  Competing with Ye Yuan, he did not have any psychological burden at all. Could a teenage youth be his match?

  As for the master in Xiao Ruyan's mouth, Ren Dong just took it as a joke to listen to.

  It was also unknown what kind of relation was between these two people. Saying these words was merely just raising Ye Yuan's status.

  "Haha. Turns out that this Elder Brother is actually so amazing. Younger Brother admires greatly. As for this match . . . I think it's better to forget about it," Ye Yuan said perfunctorily with a smile.

  The present circumstances were different from before. The reason why he took action against Tong Wenchang was that Tong Wenchang's actions had infuriated him thoroughly.

  While this Ren Dong was just a little haughty and did not do anything to him either. Ye Yuan naturally would not strike down the other party's confidence.

  "Hahaha! Boy, looks like you still know your limits pretty well! However . . ." Ren Dong took a look at Yue Mengli and Xiao Ruyan, heaved a sigh, and said, "This taste . . . is really a little poor. Hehe."

  Ren Dong was dripping with sarcasm when speaking. Evidently, he was very contemptuous of Yue Mengli's and Xiao Ruyan's looks.

  Hearing these words, Xiao Ruyan was enraged until smoke came out of her nostrils.

  Women, especially beautiful woman, what they could not stand the most was other people saying that they were not beautiful!

  Moreover, Xiao Ruyan was one of the capital's dual absolutes in the Fierce Gale World. Her beauty could be imagined.

  "Master, this punk needs a beating! Why are you avoiding a fight?" Xiao Ruyan stomped her feet angrily.

  Ye Yuan was just about to say a few words of consolation when the Yue Mengli who did not say a word the entire time actually opened her mouth to speak too. "Ye Yuan, I know that your alchemy skill attainments are exceedingly high. But I still have yet to see before. How about you let me witness it today, alright?"

  Goodness gracious! The good-natured Yue Mengli was enraged too!

  Ren Dong this brat's one sentence really lit the firecracker!

  Looks like this alchemist test, he had to take part no matter what.

  Women, especially beautiful women, were never to be offended.

  When Ye Yuan heard Yue Mengli's words, he unwittingly sweated profusely too.

  In his eyes, Yue Mengli was forever that quiet and elegant.

  Although she was very calm when speaking just now, the faint fury in those words already radiated out.

  Furthermore, this was still Yue Mengli's first time opening her mouth to beg Ye Yuan. This made Ye Yuan completely not know how he should reject.

  "Fine then, fine then. Isn't it just refining a medicinal pill? How big of an issue is it?!" Ye Yuan said helplessly.

  "Not refining a pill that simple! Master, you mustn't stint on materials! If you are competing with him, you have to let him know what true alchemy skills are!" Xiao Ruyan pointed at Ren Dong and said.

  Ye Yuan could not resist turning back to take a look at Yue Mengli. Yue Mengli did not speak, but the expression in her eyes seemed to be able to talk.

  That meaning was like saying, properly teach this naive child how to behave!

  Ye Yuan could not help shooting Ren Dong a sympathetic glance and said, "Brother, it's not that this Younger Brother, I, am not helping you. It's that you really shouldn't have provoked them!"

  Chapter 499. Too Simple |

  Ren Dong was very displeased. These people treated him utterly as they pleased!

  Regardless where he walked to in Wu Fang City, he was always the center of attention. When had he been underestimated by people like so before?

  "Heh, just two ugly girls. I can't even say it? Want to challenge me is it? Fine, I'll give you this opportunity! Today, I just happen to be going to take part in the Alchemist Association's test as well. Let's compete to see whose medicinal pill is more outstanding!"

  Ye Yuan had an indifferent look as he said, "How to compete?"

  "When taking the test, we'll refine the same medicinal pill. Whoever's quality is higher, he wins! If the grade is the same, I'll invite the Alchemist Association's elders to judge whose medicinal pill is better!"

  Ren Dong said it very haughtily, as if fearful that others did not know he knew the Alchemist Association's elders.

  Ye Yuan said indifferently, "Do it as you say then."

  . . . . . .

  The Fierce Gale World's Alchemist Association's headquarters was at Central Capital, while the Endless World's Alchemist Association headquarters was at Wu Fang City.

  But comparing Star Abyss's status in the Fierce Gale World, the Endless World's Alchemist Association's chairman's status was evidently not as high as Star Abyss's.

  This is because the Endless World had many sovereign level alchemists. Just within this Wu Fang City, there were two Peak Alchemy Sovereign alchemists.

  One of them was this Alchemist Association's chairman.

  Of course, the Endless World's alchemy standards were much higher than the Fierce Gale World's.

  Star Abyss's level, when placed in the Endless World, could not rank in the top five.

  The party came to the Alchemist Association. The association's personnel clearly all knew Ren Dong. Many people came up to greet him.

  "Honorable Nephew Ren Dong, what breeze blew you here today?"

  Ren Dong bought Ye Yuan and the rest into a side hall. An old man immediately greeted warmly when he saw Ren Dong.

  "So, today is Master Wu Xuan managing things. Little Nephew has seen Master." Ren Dong gave a bow respectfully.

  This elderly man was an early-stage Alchemy Sovereign. He could naturally receive Ren Dong's courtesy.

  Wu Xuan waved his hand and said, "What are you still being so courteous with me for? I heard that you were in closed-seclusion for very long. Coming today, could it be to assault high-rank Quasi-Alchemy King?"

  "Heh, Master Wu Xuan knows me better than anyone. I came today precisely to participate in this high-rank Quasi-Alchemy King test. However . . ." Ren Dong took a look at Ye Yuan and said with a cold smile, "Taking care of some inexperienced fellow while I'm at it. This is to let him know what's called the immensity of heaven and earth!"

  Wu Xuan followed Ren Dong's gaze and looked at Ye Yuan, and he could not help being a little amazed.

  This youth was so young and was actually already Second Level Sea Transformation strength. How extraordinary.

  He saw Xu Zihui standing with his hands by the side respectfully too and could not help being even more astonished.

  A second-class patrolling inspector like Bao Sangui completely could not enter Wu Xuan's eyes. But a Ninth Level Soul Sea expert like Xu Zihui, Wu Xuan naturally knew.

  He was the City Lord Manor's first-class patrolling inspector. Why would he be so respectful towards a teenager?

  Looks like this youth had some background!

  "Honorable Nephew, what's with this tal
k?"

  In front of Ren Dong, Wu Xuan did not put on any senior's airs. Clearly, he regarded him quite highly.

  "I came to find Master Wu Xuan, to boldly request Master to be a witness for us. In a while, during the test, we'll refine the same medicinal pill, and ultimately determine the victor with the medicinal pill's quality," Ren Dong said with a cold grunt.

  This time, Wu Xuan was really astonished. He said in surprise, "You and him? Quasi-Alchemy King versus low-rank Alchemy Master? Honorable Nephew, aren't you being a little too much of a bully here?"

  "Heh heh, Master didn't hear how arrogant this boy's words were. He said that as long as he randomly took part in the test, whatever Alchemy King and Alchemy Sovereign would be contending to snatch him to be a disciple. Furthermore . . . he would even find it troublesome!" Ren Dong said with a cold smile.

  When Wu Xuan heard these words, his expression could not help darkening too. A puny little Alchemy Master uttered such wild ravings. Indeed, this person was unaware of how high the heaven was and how deep the earth was.

  "You really said that before?" Wu Xuan asked in a solemn voice.

  Ye Yuan nodded his head, counted as admitting it.

  Actually, he just casually said it to use to placate Skymaple. Who knew that it just so happened to be heard by Ren Dong.

  But the words were already said. Ye Yuan naturally would not deny it.

  Furthermore, what he said was only the truth. How could those Alchemy Kings and Alchemy Sovereigns be worthy of being his, Ye Yuan's, master?

  "Hehe, what an unbridled brat! Fine! Today, I'll help you guys be this witness, and I'll see if a puny little Alchemy Master really has such heaven-defying talent that can make me view him in a different light too!"

  Ye Yuan admitting it so shamelessly made Wu Xuan very furious too.

  Ye Yuan just shrugged when he heard this. He did not have the intention of disputing those words.

  . . . . . .

  The place for this test did not seem to be any different from back then when Ye Yuan was at the State of Qin.

  It was just that the pill refining rooms here were of much higher quality compared to the State of Qin's. All manners of decorations and equipments were much more extensive too.

  In the hall, one could likewise see everything in the pill refining rooms from the light screen projection.

  "Alright, the test will begin soon. What kind of medicinal pill do you guys want to refine?" Wu Xuan asked.

  Ye Yuan had yet to speak when Ren Dong jumped in and said, "Dragon Buddha Jade Void Pill!"

  Ye Yuan could not help being stunned when he heard that, his eyes looking at Ren Dong rather strangely.

  Ren Dong clearly saw Ye Yuan's gaze too and thought that Ye Yuan could not refine it. He could not help saying delightedly, "What? Can't refine it? Or completely never heard before? There's still time to back out now, but there has to be some punishment, don't you agree?"

  Ye Yuan smiled wryly and shook his head as he said, "Alright then. Dragon Buddha Jade Void Pill then."

  Ye Yuan's surprise was obviously not because he could not refine it, and even less because he never heard of it before. But because this Dragon Buddha Jade Void Pill was seriously too easy for him.

  He originally still thought that Ren Dong being so aggressive should have picked even more formidable Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills. Who knew that he actually picked one without any difficulty.

  However, Ye Yuan was a well-fed person who did not know how the starving people had suffered. This Dragon Buddha Jade Void Pill was already the highest-ranking medicinal pill that Ren Dong could refine.

  The Dragon Buddha Jade Void Pill was a high-level Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pill, but it was also just an entry-level medicinal pill. It could at most only be considered slightly difficult among the entry-levels.

  Most of those who came to join the alchemist test just barely reached this level. They would naturally choose other entry-level medicinal pills for the test.

  Ren Dong being able to refine out high-level Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills at this age was already very impressive. To make him pick some highly challenging high-level Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills was naturally something impossible.

  But Ye Yuan's expression in the eyes of those who did not know the inside story naturally thought that he could not refine it.

  But Yue Mengli and Xiao Ruyan, even Skymaple, all of them knew that this should not stump Ye Yuan.

  This expression of Ye Yuan's could only say . . . this medicinal pill was too simple.

  Wu Xuan saw Ye Yuan's expression, and he could not help shaking his head secretly in his heart.

  This youngster's strength was decent, but his temperament was too poor. Unable to refine, then why he pretended to know?

  Even if a puny little Alchemy Master really could refine some Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills, how could he possibly refine those high-level medicinal pills of the same tier?

  Now, the true colors were revealed, and the jig was up, right?

  Chapter 500. Young Man, Do You Have a Master? |

  "Alright. Since the two of you don't have any objections, then begin!" Wu Xuan said.,

  "Hang on!" Xiao Ruyan suddenly interjected.

  "What? You this ugly girl want to go back on your words?" Ren Dong said with a grin.

  The temperature in the hall instantly dropped several degrees. This Ren Dong really had no idea of death.

  Xiao Ruyan said with a cold smile, "Since it's an alchemy duel, there has to be some stake, right?"

  Ren Dong could not help being stunned when he heard these words. The smile on his face became even brighter straight away. "Haha! What kind of stake do you want? Just say it out!"

  "Just bet essence crystals then! 100 thousand middle-grade essence crystals. Dare to wager?" Xiao Ruyan had a compelling look.

  Once these words were said, everyone drew in a cold breath.

  Although Ye Yuan still had some wealth right now, to take out 100 thousand essence crystals in one go, he really could not do it.

  100 thousand middle-grade essence crystals. No matter where it was, it was a huge sum of money.

  After the shock, Ren Dong calmed down very quickly, and looked at Xiao Ruyan with a half-smile as he said, "Heh! You this ugly girl talk so big! 100 thousand middle-grade essence crystals, can you take it out?"

  Xiao Ruyan flipped her hand over. A storage ring appeared in her hand.

  "There are 100 thousand middle-grade essence crystals in this storage ring. Since this lord sovereign is the judge, let him confirm it."

  As she said, Xiao Ruyan very casually threw the storage ring to Wu Xuan.

  Wu Xuan was also slightly astonished when he saw the situation. He inserted his divine sense into the storage ring and counted them; indeed, there were 100 thousand middle-grade essence crystals.

  This little lady, such a grand display of one's wealth!

  100 thousand middle-grade essence crystals were not considered much to him as an Alchemy Sovereign. But to ordinary people, it was absolutely a tremendous amount of wealth.

  Even for Ren Dong as the eldest young master in his family, adding up all of his possessions, it was most likely just this amount too.

  "That's right. It's indeed 100 thousand middle-grade essence crystals," Wu Xuan nodded slightly and said.

  Hearing the affirmative answer, Ren Dong could not help looking at Xiao Ruyan in slight amazement.

  This ugly girl's looks were far from attractive. To think that she was actually so wealthy. People really could not be judged by their looks!

  But Ren Dong naturally did not mind this as well. He only treated it as a little girl in a fit of pique.

  "Hehe, with money, one can be willful, but one also has to bear the consequences brought about from being willful! Deal! I'll wager with you!"

  Ren Dong likewise threw Wu Xuan a storage ring and said, "Master, this storage ring has high-grade, middle-grade, and low-grade essence crystals. The total sum should be 100 thousand. I have
to trouble you to do a check."

  Wu Xuan briefly counted, and he then nodded his head slightly and said, "Only a few dozen pieces short. Not a big problem. Since both parties have agreed to this wager, then this Seat will be the intermediary party. These two storage rings will belong to the final victor. Now, we can start the test."

  Ye Yuan and Ren Dong entered the medicine warehouse. They chose the medicinal herbs the Dragon Buddha Jade Void Pill required, and then they entered the pill refining rooms respectively to refine the medicinal pill.

  Seizing this opportunity, Wu Xuan pulled Xu Zihui to one side and asked softly, "What background does this boy have? Are you sure that he isn't here to cause trouble?"

  Xu Zihui had a bitter look when he heard that and said, "This . . . This lowly one doesn't know either! Young Master Ye's talent in the Martial Path is unparalleled. But whether he knows how to alchemy or not, I really don't know!"

  As he said this, Xu Zihui briefly recounted the matter of inviting Ye Yuan to join the Northern Domain's upper echelons' meeting, leaving Wu Xuan with shock in his heart.

  This Ye Yuan was actually even stronger than the three sect's head disciples. Truly inconceivable.

  But his complexion became dark very quickly as he said in a low voice, "Martial Path talent being so heaven-defying, but at his age, how could he have the time to learn alchemy skills too? He's truly messing around!"

  Xu Zihui clearly did not feel that Ye Yuan could refine out a high-level Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pill either and said with a forced smile, "Master Wu Xuan, this lowly one has interacted with Young Master Ye for several days, and more or less has some understanding regarding his temperament. A young man's character can be understood. Since Young Master Ye has the badge that the Alchemist Association issued, he presumably isn't utterly clueless about alchemy skills. Since he wants to mess around, just let him run wild. Or else, if he really gets offended and walks away, City Lord, His Excellency, will flay my skin for sure when I go back."

  Wu Xuan said with a long face, "This old man, an exalted Alchemy Sovereign, is actually accompanying two juniors to mess around. Seriously preposterous!"
