Nine Dragons Supreme God

Chapter 40 Living up to expectations

Even though she dared to argue with Huang Shan, Mo Xinyi was inevitably a little nervous because everyone present was a so-called acquaintance.

If he performs poorly, wouldn't he be disgracing the head of the family?

She glanced timidly at Mo Yihan.

"With your current abilities, refining the Meridian Expansion Pill should be no problem at all," Mo Yihan said expressionlessly, but nodded slightly to Mo Xinyi.

Encouraged by Mo Yihan, Mo Xinyi finally mustered up her courage and went to the alchemy workbench. Following the refining techniques Mo Yihan had taught her, she began to prepare the medicinal materials.

"This"

Not long after, Huang Shan's lips twitched slightly, then he sighed deeply, his face full of disappointment.

"Is this girl trying to be funny? When preparing medicinal ingredients, you should first separate the different herbs, identify them clearly, and then determine the amount to use. How can she make medicinal ingredients by just mixing them all together like this?"

"This clumsy mixing technique is probably better than even my recently taken-over apprentice!"

"She's gotten too cocky. This girl has really gotten too cocky. Her skill in refining medicinal materials has deteriorated by several times compared to before."

The three alchemists looked at each other, shook their heads speechlessly, and were also somewhat annoyed.

Even though Mo Xinyi has the guild leader Cui Shiyan as her backer, this is the Alchemist Guild, not her home. It's ridiculous for her to act recklessly like this!

If it weren't for the chairman being there, they would have all stormed off in anger.

Most of the apprentices present also cast gloating glances at Mo Xinyi.

"Xinyi, Xinyi, I warned you long ago, but you insisted on gaining a momentary advantage through words. It doesn't matter how you try to smooth things over, the real issue is that you're ruining my reputation."

Huang Shan sneered inwardly, but was also very annoyed.

"President, are you just going to let this girl make a fool of herself here?" The pale-faced alchemist finally couldn't help but ask Cui Shiyan.

"You think Xinyi's method of refining medicine blanks is clumsy and inferior because you are too low-level to see the essence of it."

The dissatisfaction and commotion of the alchemists caused Cui Shiyan to frown slightly: "Shut up, all of you, and watch quietly."

"what?"

The three alchemists present were all wide-eyed, their minds completely blank.

If Cui Shiyan, as a mid-level second-grade alchemist, said that their level was low, perhaps no one would dare to refute him.

But that's in comparison to Mo Xinyi; it's saying they're on a lower level!

Is it the chairman who's gone mad, or are they all insane?

Even now, under Cui Shiyan's oppressive aura, the three of them, though remaining silent, were still suppressing a surge of anger within them, waiting to erupt as they coldly stared at Mo Xinyi.

After finishing the preparation of the medicinal blank, Mo Xinyi breathed a slight sigh of relief and carefully placed it into the alchemy furnace as if walking on thin ice. Immediately, a wisp of fiery red alchemical fire rose from her palm, like a nimble fire snake, coiling around the outside of the furnace and burning.

This caused the three alchemists present to change their expressions, and a look of surprise flashed across their eyes.

His alchemy skills weren't particularly advanced, or even highly refined, but they were still commendable, and he seemed to be catching up with the three of them.

"How is this possible?"

At this moment, the whole place was silent.

In their minds, Mo Xinyi, as an apprentice alchemist, was only capable of preparing medicinal ingredients on a daily basis.

As for alchemy, when exactly did this girl learn it?

Logically speaking, if Mo Xinyi possessed such alchemy skills, she should have caused a sensation in Jianye City long ago.

"Could it be the president?"

All three of them looked at Cui Shiyan in unison. Among those present, Cui Shiyan's alchemy skills were the most superb. Moreover, just the other day, he had taken Xinyi as his apprentice without anyone noticing.

If that's the case, then everything makes sense.

Although Mo Xinyi is currently not as good as the three first-grade veteran alchemists present, if she is properly trained, her future is limitless, and surpassing them is only a matter of time.

"Mo Xinyi, that girl, she's really good at hiding her true abilities." Huang Shan's expression was not good. Mo Xinyi was originally his apprentice, but he didn't expect Cui Shiyan to take her away by relying on his status as the president.

What a good idea!

"Even so, Mo Xinyi's alchemy skills are still inferior to ours. I'm afraid it's not quite appropriate for her to preside over this alchemy discussion meeting."

It could be said that Mo Xinyi's demonstration silenced everyone present. However, the white-faced alchemist saw through it all and muttered to himself.

"Hmm, Mo Xinyi's alchemy technique seems to have gotten faster?" At this moment, Huang Shan's expression couldn't help but show some surprise.

"Huang Shan, you and I are both alchemists. We should know that one cannot be distracted when refining medicine. Every tiny detail must be treated with utmost care. Now, what Mo Xinyi is refining is truly a first-grade pill. You're telling me that Mo Xinyi sped up the process, not that she's just opening a bottle?"

One of the men, a middle-aged man in his forties with piercing eyes, frowned and spoke, but before he could finish his sentence, his expression froze.

"It seems like it's really close, and there haven't been any mistakes!" the pale-faced youth exclaimed in surprise.

"How is this possible!"

The three of them looked at each other, and each saw shock in the other's eyes.

Most of the alchemy apprentices present were initially filled with envy, but their feelings of surprise and awe have now turned into astonishment!

"Qi Moxinyi is truly a rare alchemy genius, one that Jianye City has seen in hundreds of years!"

"I have a feeling that our Jianye Alchemist Branch will soon become famous!"

Completely different from their previous angry state of mind, Huang Shan and the others were now somewhat excited.

For many years, the Jianye branch has been overwhelmed by the branches of other cities and has never been able to catch its breath.

But what if the guild trained a 21-year-old alchemist, and such an outstanding one at that?

The situation will become completely different!

The Jianye branch will attract the attention of the Imperial City General Association, and as a result, the resources allocated to it will increase accordingly.

At that time, all the alchemists in the Jianye branch will reap even greater benefits.

With this thought in mind, the three of them no longer regarded Mo Xinyi as an apprentice who could be ordered around at will; they treated her like a treasure!

"Yihan, President, Xinyi has lived up to expectations and successfully refined the Meridian Expansion Pill."

Large beads of sweat were still dripping down Mo Xinyi's cheeks, but she didn't care at all, and a smile as sweet as spring flowers appeared on her lips.

If it weren't for maintaining a ladylike image, she would have jumped up and danced with joy long ago.

"What? You succeeded in refining it on the first try?"

Even though they had already acknowledged Mo Xinyi's identity as an alchemist, the three alchemists were still dumbfounded and found it hard to believe.
