Everyone ascended, but I didn't get on board

Chapter 71 Elders Seeking Medicine
Quan Shuo coughed, then spoke awkwardly, "To be honest, Chai Duo is my direct disciple. He has already reached the state of perfection in the Spiritual Transformation Realm and is expected to overcome the tribulation. I heard that you refined the Six-Patterned Tribulation Breaking Pill during your admission assessment a few days ago, so I came here to ask for it."

The more Quan Shuo spoke, the more embarrassed he felt. It was not difficult to refine the sixth-grade Tribulation-Breaking Pill. He himself was a ninth-grade alchemist, and even his disciple Chai Duo had the ability to refine sixth-grade pills. But the difficult part was the Six-Pattern Tribulation-Breaking Pill. The Six-Pattern Pill had almost no impurities, let alone pill poison.

It's not that they haven't refined it themselves, and they have produced some with Dan patterns, but at most they only have four patterns, and six patterns are hard to come by.

The perilous state of transcending tribulation was immense; even the slightest error could result in death. With the Six-Patterned Tribulation-Breaking Pill, Chai Duo's chances of a breakthrough could increase by at least 20%. It was precisely for this reason that Quan Shuo had the audacity to come to him.

"Fellow Daoist Chu!" Chai Duo also bowed towards her and said seriously, "Senior Brother Fan Cang has mentioned many times that your understanding of the Dao of Alchemy far surpasses ours. In time, you will surely become a top-level alchemist. I sincerely wish to ask you for medicine. If you have any requests, I will do my best to fulfill them."

Qiu Ci turned to look at the elder next to him. It turned out that his surname was Fan. Okay, I got it.

I also realized that these people came to ask for elixirs, and they were the ones to be refined for the entrance examination. If they had told me earlier, I would have thought the leader was doing a surprise check.

"Sure." Qiu Ci nodded directly. It's just a few pills. Can't anyone refine them with hands?

"Ah? Ah!" Not only Chai Duo, but also Quan Lao and Fan Cang were stunned. Just... agreed like that? Without discussing the conditions again?
Why is there an illusion that the elixir market has been disrupted?

She turned around and began to search, from the jar on the table to the cabinet next to it, then turned around and shook the blanket on the recliner, even looking under the table. However, she couldn't find the familiar pills for a long time. "Huh? Where did I put them? Wait a minute, I'll look again!"

The three of them just watched the other person rummaging around, and when they thought she was looking for an excuse to shirk her responsibilities, they saw her slap her head and say, "I remember, I think I put it in my coat pocket." The first test was on alchemy, and then she had to take other subjects. She thought the pills were in the way, so she just stuffed them into her pocket and didn't bring a storage bag at all.

So, the three of them watched as the other person pulled out a dirty, burnt piece of clothing from somewhere, crumpled it up, and then pulled out a few white pills from it, handing them over. "This is it, here!"

Chai Duo: "..."

Quan Shuo: “…”

Fan Cang: “…”

What happened that you suddenly don't want it anymore?

Seeing that several people were reluctant to take it, Qiu Ci felt a little embarrassed, "How about I give you a new furnace?" It was indeed a bit dirty.

"No, no, no, don't bother." Chai Duo then took out a pill bottle, carefully used his spiritual power, and put the pill into the bottle, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chu." It doesn't matter if it's dirty, it's not possible to refine a six-patterned pill every time.

"Is it really true that we don't need to refine a new one?" Qiu Ci, who could actually refine six patterns every time, confirmed again. Seeing that the other party really preferred the old one, he didn't insist anymore.

Chai Duo wanted to say something when a voice came from outside again.

"Is Chu Xiaoyou here?"

The voice sounded familiar. Qiu Ci went out to take a look and saw the old man who had conducted the assessment before standing outside the door with a smile on his face. There were several people beside him, and another elder who was in charge of the assessment of formations and weapons was waving at her.

Qiu Ci froze for a moment. What was this elder's name? Was this how the academy tested the Master?

"It's great to have Young Friend Chu here. We're waiting..." The old man walked in cheerfully, but when he saw the three people behind him, his expression suddenly changed. He blurted out, "Quan Shuo, why are you here, old man?!"

"Hmph, you old bastard are here too." Quan Shuo rolled his eyes at the other person, obviously he was used to bickering with him.

"If you were here, wouldn't the Six-Patterned Tribulation-Breaking Pill be..." He guessed this and his expression became even uglier. He pointed at Quan Shuo and started cursing, "Hey, you shameless old bastard! You're an alchemist, yet you come here to snatch the pill? How shameless of you!"

"It is because I am an alchemist that I know the value of elixirs. Anyone like you is a reckless man who only knows how to use a sword." Quan Shuo rolled his eyes to the sky.

"Who are you calling a scoundrel? You're a sinister villain." The old man exploded, and the spiritual energy around him burst out. "What's wrong with me calling you a scoundrel?"

"Believe it or not, I'll chop you to death."

"Come on, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

"Follow me if you dare." After saying that, the old man summoned his magic sword and flew into the sky.

"Hmph!" Quan Shuo snorted coldly and flew after him.

The next moment, the sound of fighting was heard in the air, and the sky was filled with the light of sword energy and magic.

Qiu Ci was stunned. They were...fighting just like that?
She looked back at the people in the yard and found that no one looked worried, let alone tried to stop it. Even Chai Duo and Fan Cang, who were in the house, came out and watched the fight in the air together with the newcomers, as if they were watching a show. If they had a plate of melon seeds, they would have joined in.

"Is this... okay?" she couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay, it's okay." Fan Cang said as if he was used to it, "They do this all the time."

Then he started talking to another elder.

"How long do you think this fight will last?"

"I bet two hours!"

"Why? Didn't it take four or five hours in the past?"

"Because there's something else."

"Oh, right!" The elder who had just arrived seemed to remember something and turned to look at Qiu Ci and said, "Young friend Chu, do you still remember me?"

Uh……

"Elder." She could only bite the bullet and bow, pretending to know him.

"My dear Chu, you are too polite. Why do you call me elder? My cultivation is only a little higher than yours. You can just call me Fellow Daoist Lu." The elder smiled kindly.

"Friend Lu." I understand. So your last name is Lu.

"I'm sure you understand why we're here. Two of my junior brothers in the Weapon Pavilion are about to reach the Transmigration Stage and are in urgent need of the Six-Patterned Tribulation-Breaking Pills you've refined. Do you have any left?" He stated his purpose directly. "My Weapon Pavilion is willing to exchange them for an eighth-grade magical weapon."

"I gave the elixir to Master Chai." Qiu Ci said directly.

Chai Duo also spoke immediately, "There are ten pills in total and I can't use them all. They can be given to my fellow apprentices in the Weapon Pavilion." He directly took out the bottle that had just been filled with pills.

The people who came together were delighted and came forward without any hesitation.

Compared to the two fighting old men, the people here were particularly harmonious. Soon all ten pills were owned by their owners. There were four people in total, two pills each. They even left two pills for the Magic Pavilion and the Formation Pavilion who were not present.

Everyone was very satisfied, including Qiu Ci, because she was given five spirit stones and a bunch of magic tools and talismans. The amount was enough to cover her salary for several decades, and she vaguely saw a bright road to wealth.

After distributing the pills, the few of them said goodbye and left without stopping for a moment, as if they had completely forgotten that there were two Pavilion Masters working feverishly over their disciples' pills above them.
