Fairy bestows immortality

"It seems you're still in the top three."

Li Changhong spoke with a smile on the stage.

Two minutes later, the aroma of elixir wafted from Dong Jiashuang's alchemy furnace.

"The pill is done!"

He opened his eyes.

Before he could even show any joy, his expression immediately turned sour.

Because he saw that Yao Feihong, You Feng, and Su Yun had already finished refining the items and were waiting in front of him.

His face turned ugly.

Just now, in order to enter the top three, he devoted himself to refining, and not a trace of his divine sense leaked out, so he was unaware of the situation outside.

I just found out that I still finished in fourth place!

"This……"

His fists were clenched tightly under his robe, his knuckles turning white.

I lost to Su Yun again!

Seeing Li Changhong smiling and talking with Yao Feihong, You Feng, and Su Yun.

His jealousy grew even stronger!

The pride of being a direct disciple was repeatedly thwarted by Su Yun...

Once all twelve disciples had completed their training, their rankings remained unchanged, without a doubt.

In the second round, Master Li Changhong again set the questions and continued refining.

This time, the refining process was even more difficult.

As a result, two people failed to refine the product and looked frustrated.

Su Yun, Yao Feihong, and You Feng were almost tied for first place, with little difference in both the time taken and the quality of the pills they produced.

This time, it wasn't that Su Yun was hiding his abilities; in fact, after refining so many pills in a row, he was quite tired.

After all, Yao Feihong and his companion were indeed powerful and had a solid foundation, and their spiritual energy was much greater than his due to their advanced cultivation levels.

Therefore, he can't always beat them consistently; maintaining a tie is already quite an achievement.

Moreover, Su Yun was well aware that this was all thanks to his efforts in refining the Five Organs Pill over the past few days.

It was through his repeated attempts to refine the Five Organs Pill that he was able to refine pills of a lower rank more easily!

Otherwise, he would find it much more difficult to refine mid-level pills now, and he would definitely lose to these two.

Li Changhong then gave some guidance to the two who had failed in their alchemy attempts, telling them not to be discouraged, to practice more, and to grasp the essence of alchemy.

Subsequently, Yao Feihong, You Feng, and others were praised, while some other alchemists who were more conventional in their approach were commended.

As for Dong Jiashuang, he only said a few words, and they were a mixture of praise and criticism.

As a Spirit-level alchemist, he has a very accurate intuition when it comes to people.

He didn't really like Dong Jiashuang's personality.

Otherwise, this disciple, the only one in the Tianyang Sect who could refine pills, would not have been neglected.

While Dong Jiashuang outwardly accepted Li Changhong's praise and criticism, she inwardly felt resentful and increasingly frustrated and angry.

"Alright, the pill-refining competition for today is now over."

Li Changhong waved.

In this alchemy competition, within a few hours, he had thoroughly understood the abilities, talents, and potential of all the intermediate-level alchemists, and now he had a clear understanding of their abilities.

Then, he looked at the young apprentice and said, "Xiaoyu, distribute the rewards to them."

Li Yu nodded and said, "Yes."

He stepped forward and handed over the items he had prepared in his storage ring to the twelve alchemists one by one.

Having acquired five catties of Earth Milk Essence, Su Yun examined it and felt delighted.

This was probably the easiest time he had ever obtained Earth Milk Essence.

Of the twelve, only his reward was the most substantial.

After accepting the reward, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Master Li."

Master Li smiled, waved to everyone, and said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, you may all leave."

The others turned and left.

Just as Su Yun was about to leave, Li Changhong said, "Su Yun, stay for a moment."

Su Yun stopped in her tracks.

Dong Jiashuang paused, her fists clenched beneath her wide robe, and she left Xuan Yang Peak with a sinister look in her eyes.

After everyone had left, Li Changhong said, "I sensed everything clearly when you were refining the pills."

"Your spiritual sense is very strong. You even have the ability to monitor the progress of others while refining pills and control the pill formation time. You have probably already tried refining high-level pills."
