The first time, as expected, Zou Hong still failed!

However, this was normal, so after resting for a few minutes, he started his second attempt!

Qiu Yufei slightly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Zou Hong fail the first time!

No one could blame her for being so anxious, because this competition was incredibly important for the Myriad Medicine Pavilion!

...

After some time, Zou Hong's second experiment still ended in failure!

He became slightly nervous, and this time he was even more careful!

Finally, perseverance paid off; when the fragrance of medicine wafted from the alchemy cauldron, a smug smile appeared on his face!

When Qiu Yufei saw Zou Hong successfully refining the Green Jade Pill on his third attempt, her heart sank to the bottom!

Because she had already failed twice before and was now undergoing her third attempt!

Meanwhile, Zou Hong immediately started his fourth attempt; in fact, succeeding once had already secured his victory!

When Qiu Yufei failed her third attempt, Zou Hong unexpectedly succeeded on his fourth try!

Now, she had completely lost hope of competing, with not even a theoretical possibility left!

Even if she succeeded in her next two attempts, Zou Hong had already succeeded on his third, which was still better than her!

Moreover, she had no confidence at all in succeeding even once in the next two attempts, let alone twice!

So, helplessly, Qiu Yufei chose her familiar elixir for the remaining two chances to secure the second position!

This was not difficult for her!

When the competition ended and left, her pretty face was filled with deep disappointment!

"Grandpa, I'm sorry!"

Qiu Yufei came before Grandpa Qiu and said apologetically.

Grandpa Qiu sighed and said:

"It's not your fault, this Zou Hong is indeed very talented in the alchemy path, rarely matched!"

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Qiu Yufei said, at this point, there's nothing that can be done!

"Victory and defeat are common events, don't take it too seriously."

After Qiu Yufei took her seat, Su Chen smiled slightly and consoled her.

"I'm fine."

Qiu Yufei forced a smile.

"Ah, it's really unexpected that Zou Hong's alchemy skills have reached such a level!"

"Yes, he succeeded twice out of five attempts with a pill like Green Jade Pill, it's truly remarkable!"

"It seems that the Medicine King Valley will have successors!"

...

At this moment, people couldn't help but start discussing, praising Zou Hong's alchemy technique!

Hearing these discussions, the people from Medicine King Valley showed proud expressions, deliberately looking towards Myriad Medicine Pavilion!

"Kid, how's that? Now you know what the alchemy path is all about, right?"

Meanwhile, Zou Hong felt proud, those words of praise made him a bit complacent, as if he had regained all the face he had lost before!

"Trash!"

Su Chen sneered and said, not even bothering to spare this guy a glance!

Zou Hong originally thought Su Chen would be envious or even jealous upon seeing him refine the Green Jade Pill!

Unexpectedly, this guy casually called him "trash"!

To hear "trash" at the height of his pride was as harsh as could be imagined!

"What did you say!"

Zou Hong said through gritted teeth with a dark face.

Su Chen seemed to ignore his expression and disdainfully said:

"I said, with your trash level of alchemy, you still have the nerve to show off? I really don't know what you're bragging about!"

His words fell, and everyone was shocked!

This young man is too arrogant!

To say in front of Zou Hong that his alchemy level is trash, what else could this be but arrogance?

Even Grandpa Qiu wouldn't dare say that!

In the Ancient Martial World's younger generation, there are several people superior to Zou Hong in martial arts cultivation, but in the alchemy path, he is undeniably first!

And now, another young man said his alchemy level is trash!

This made everyone doubt their ears!

Grandpa Qiu also looked at Su Chen with some surprise, feeling that this young man isn't the type to speak nonsense, so how could he say such absurd words?!

He certainly didn't believe Su Chen could practice alchemy, even if he could, it would be superficial at best, and impossible to compare with Zou Hong!

"Do you even know alchemy? Aren't you afraid of boasting until your teeth fall out!"

Zou Hong laughed angrily!

"Hmph, my friend's alchemy level may not be worse than yours!"

At this moment, Qiu Yufei snorted coldly and said.

Qiu Yufei's words left everyone with mouths agape!

If they could dismiss Su Chen's words as a joke, Qiu Yufei's words carried a different weight!

Even Grandpa Qiu was shocked, a sharp light flashing in his cloudy eyes!

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but think:

Could it be that this young man really understands the alchemy path, and is quite accomplished?

Of course, they absolutely didn't believe that his skill was anywhere near as good as Zou Hong!

How could that be possible?!

In fact, Qiu Yufei wasn't entirely sure who between Su Chen and Zou Hong had higher alchemy skills!

Because her understanding of elixirs hadn't yet reached that level, she couldn't completely comprehend what the two pills she received meant!

But as she thought, since Su Chen could refine a pill that repairs meridians, it showed his level was trustworthy!

Although she always thought the effect of that Meridian Repairing Pill might not be that great!

On the other hand, Qiu Yufei wasn't sure who was better because she had lost to Zou Hong many times, forming a subconscious recognition of his strength!

"Qiu Yufei, are you joking?"

At this moment, Zou Hong laughed heartily upon hearing her words:

"If he's really as good as you say, would he dare to compete with me in a match?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yufei felt troubled, after all, Su Chen was a guest she invited!

However, upon hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Su Chen's eyes!

Of course, he quickly hid this light, lazily saying:

"Why should I compete with you? What's in it for me if I win?"

"If you're scared, just say you're scared, don't make excuses!"

Zou Hong said disdainfully.

"Ha, scared? Just by you?"

Su Chen sneered twice and said:

"I can agree to compete with you, but the condition is that the previous match is voided. I represent the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, and our match results will be final, how about that?"

Zou Hong wasn't foolish, and upon hearing this, he immediately replied:

"What's that about, I've already won!"

"It was you who wanted to compete with me, not the other way around!"

Su Chen glanced at him, casually said:

"Or are you also afraid you might lose?"
