How could someone as well-behaved as Sister Yue possibly be a playboy?

"It's one thing to neglect the auxiliary spiritual plants, but she dares to get distracted by the most important one? Isn't she afraid of overdoing it?"

Someone asked in confusion.

Most people were just watching the show, and Zhuo Qi remained silent, a mocking glint in his eyes, his heart filled with disdain.

At the very top, Qu Yuan didn't react much, as he had already witnessed it last time.

However, all the managers couldn't help but be surprised.

"This person's talent is truly... terrifying."

Yu Zhong's gaze was full of admiration, "His future achievements are bound to be great. Our Dan Alliance has truly gained another promising talent."

She remained completely unfazed by the doubts of the crowd. Regardless of whether she can succeed, with this kind of composure, she is bound to do well in the future.

This was the first time Yu Zhong had ever seen a master alchemist who could multitask. He was surprised but couldn't help but ponder it in his heart.

This method does indeed increase the efficiency of alchemy considerably, but it requires extremely strict control over the heat. As everyone says, if the heat is too high, the furnace will explode.

This is undoubtedly a bold move.

Chang Yin, sitting in the lower seat, couldn't help but frown as he listened to the elders' praise.

His gaze followed that person's movements, and Chang Yin could tell at a glance that the quality of the spiritual plants was low, as the person's handling of them was not very good.

He glanced at it indifferently, not taking it to heart.

He's nothing but a clown.

The girl's movements became more and more skillful, showing a significant improvement over the last assessment, and he noticed all these subtle changes.

Ji Feiyang was stunned for a moment, a strong feeling rising in his heart. He kept his eyes glued to the girl's every move.

A flash of inspiration would occasionally cross my mind.

It turned out to be like this...

After processing the main spiritual plants, Ye Yueyue refined them one by one, increasing the heat. As they burned, the impurities were separated out, forming clumps of grayish-brown liquid.

Gradually, it turned into wisps of black smoke and was emitted from the chimney.

The three liquids in the alchemy furnace instantly became clear and pure.

Ye Yueyue closed her eyes, used her divine sense to probe into the alchemy furnace, controlled the three different liquids, and decomposed them one by one before fusing them together.

The flames grew larger again.

As they merged, the originally transparent and pure liquid solidified a bit, and instantly, a faint fragrance of elixir spread across the competition platform!

"what?"

"It's already formed a pill so quickly?"

In the audience, some people were so surprised that they couldn't help but stand up.

Keep in mind that others have only just begun refining spiritual plants, and even the fastest ones have only refined one!

And she has actually already achieved the elixir?

Zhuo Qi was also stunned for a moment, disbelief flashing in his eyes. Then he clenched his fist: "It hasn't come to that yet. I don't believe she can become a pill!"

The others shook their heads at the sight.

Once the fragrance of the elixir is released, the situation is basically settled. Unless it's intentional or something unexpected happens, such as the depletion of spiritual energy, it's impossible for the furnace to explode.

The others on the competition stage felt a sense of urgency upon smelling the fragrance of the elixir. They dared not be distracted in the slightest and focused solely on refining the pill.

Before long, the fragrance of the elixir became even stronger.

Dan Cheng!

Ye Yueyue took a deep breath and snapped out of her daze.

The bright white, round pills lay in the alchemy furnace, a delightful sight.

With a slight smile, she took out the pill and placed it in a glass bottle that had been prepared on the table to lock in its medicinal properties and prevent its effects from being lost.

"She actually succeeded!"

In the audience, someone exclaimed in surprise, their face filled with disbelief.

"It's really fast when multitasking! I want to try it too..."

"Come on, you're lucky you can even refine it properly. You've only just learned to walk and you're already trying to fly?"

"She looks relaxed, but if she doesn't control the heat properly, the oven will explode. By the way, is this the new junior sister? She's really amazing. No wonder she didn't need to participate in the first round of the competition."

From the crowd, a third-grade alchemist spoke up.

Some were surprised, some found it hard to believe, but the facts were undeniable.

Their tone conveyed envy, but not jealousy.

Jealousy only arises when the gap between people is not large, but multitasking is not something everyone can learn, and the difficulty is obvious without even trying.

What is there to be jealous of?

"This... how is this possible...!"

Zhuo Qi muttered to himself, his eyes filled with disbelief. He seemed dazed, as if he had suffered a huge blow.

Ye Yueyue glanced at him indifferently:

Instead of wasting time slandering others, you should focus on improving yourself.

After saying that, he ignored everyone else and started refreshing his spirit scrolls while everyone else was still refining pills.

A hint of admiration flashed across Qu Yuan's eyes as he sat in front, and he felt even more certain in his heart.

Qian'er, this friend, has an excellent character.

Anyone else would have been indignant and would have retorted, but the young girl in front of him was remarkably composed despite her young age.

He remained unfazed even when faced with doubts from others.

"Indeed, he has exceptional talent and a high success rate in achieving his pill-forming goals."

“I remember, she only joined the Pill Alliance last year… She was a first-grade pill master back then, right?” Yu Zhong glanced at Qu Yuan and said gently.

Qu Yuan nodded.

He was in charge of that assessment. He wasn't usually in charge of the assessment for first-grade alchemists, but because Qian'er was going to participate, he personally supervised it that time.

"It's only been a little over a year, and he's already advanced to a second-grade alchemist. His talent is truly remarkable." Another elder from the Alchemy Alliance nodded in agreement.

"The future belongs to the young people."

Yu Zhong stroked his beard and said with a sigh.

He was once a genius among thousands, and now he is a sixth-grade Grand Alchemist, a highly respected member of the Alchemy Alliance.

This year's competition not only produced Ji Feiyang, a young third-grade alchemist, but also Qingfeng Zhenren, who was considered a potential successor to the seventh-grade alchemist.

Now, a single-spiritual-root alchemist with an extremely high success rate in achieving elixir production has also arrived.

The future is bound to change...

Chang Yin frowned upon hearing this.

What kind of exceptional talent is this?

All the pills produced were of low quality; what good was speed if they were of poor quality?

Seeing the approving looks from the Alliance Leader and Elder Yu, he felt somewhat resentful. His gaze swept over Ye Yueyue, who was chatting and laughing with Qu Qian'er, and he couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

They are adept at taking shortcuts and being opportunistic.

A ding-dong sound came to his ears, bringing Ji Feiyang back to his senses. He lowered his eyes, a warm feeling washing over him.

[Brother, what are you thinking about? Are you participating in the Danmeng Competition today?]

[I just had some inspiration for alchemy, hmm, I'll be using it in a bit.]

A hint of a smile flickered across his eyes when he caught a glimpse of the last sentence.

The girl seemed to know something about his life, which didn't surprise Ji Feiyang at all, because the girl usually paid attention to him.

Just as she said, she silently protected him.

When his gaze fell upon the phrase "What are you thinking about?", Ji Feiyang's heart stirred. He raised his head, searching for a certain figure in the vast square.

Was she among these people?

[Go, brother! I see you!]

When Ji Feiyang saw this, his heart skipped a beat.

……

After the others gradually completed their alchemy, the second round of the competition officially came to an end.

The Danmeng manager's sharp eyes swept over everyone, and after looking around, he announced the results of the competition.

"...Qu Qian'er came in third place."

"First place, Ye Yueyue."

After the rankings were announced, Qu Qian'er, who was standing to the side, looked pleasantly surprised and genuinely happy for her: "Sister Yue'er, you're amazing!"

Ye Yueyue smiled and ruffled her hair, "Qian'er baby is great too!"
