Chapter 700: Three-Way Standoff, Contending for the Crown!

At this moment, Little Pill King Zhou Yan and Tang Jingming fell into a standoff.

They both took it for granted that the other was their true opponent.

They simply would not regard the other contestants in the slightest!

Even the four judges present all unanimously believed that first place in this Alchemy Grand Meeting would be decided between these two!

However, matters of the world are full of twists and turns.

Yet another unexpected event occurred.

Only the judge's voice rang out once more.

"Perfect Light-Chasing Pill, qualified."

The moment these words fell, it was earth-shattering!

Instantly igniting the entire venue, leaving countless people utterly astonished and unable to believe it!

"No way, another Light-Chasing Pill with perfect composition? This is already the third one today!"

"Since when has refining a perfect Light-Chasing Pill become this easy? To appear one after another..."

"Unbelievable, unbelievable! Could it be that today, we are about to witness a top-tier clash between three alchemy prodigies?!"

"And who could have imagined? At this point, another twist could still arise — the ownership of first place is truly impossible to fathom."

"Judging by his appearance, he's even younger than the Little Pill King — what force does this person hail from, this monstrous talent?"

As the crowd's exclamations continued to ring out.

Outside the venue, the girl's pupils contracted, her face suddenly changing drastically!

Her body trembled.

The right hand holding the image-recording stone shook, nearly failing to keep a grip.

She extended her left hand, covering her lips.

Deep within her pupils surged an indescribable horror!

"To actually be able to refine a perfect Light-Chasing Pill — you, who on earth are you?!"

She never could have dreamed of it.

This youth who had asked her to help record the image-recording stone footage actually possessed such seemingly incredible alchemy attainments!

Immediately after, she could not help but think of how she had just wanted her own master to go and give him some guidance.

Her own master could only refine low-grade Light-Chasing Pills.

Yet this person could refine perfect Light-Chasing Pills.

The enormous gap — anyone with eyes could see it.

So, in the end, who was guiding whom?!

At this moment, she only felt utterly humiliated, deeply regretting the words she had spoken earlier.

She now had only one thought.

That was to quickly find a crack in the wall to crawl into, and then never come out again!

At the same time.

On the stone platform at the very center of the plaza.

Seeing yet another person refine a perfect Light-Chasing Pill, the remaining three alchemy master judges abruptly rose from their seats.

Their eyes wide and round, they stared fixedly at Jiang Yan's figure, unable to refrain from exclaiming:

"What day is today exactly, that it could draw three alchemy monsters to gather here?"

"The grandeur of this Alchemy Grand Meeting — for the next several thousand years, I fear it will be hard to encounter again."

"This old man sees this person as unfamiliar, and does not know whose junior he is."

"Could he be a disciple secretly taken in by the other two Grandmasters?"

"Sigh, strange indeed, strange indeed."

Just as the three judges were deeply mired in doubt, constantly guessing at Jiang Yan's identity.

On the field, Little Pill King Zhou Yan and Tang Jingming were also greatly shocked!

They had never expected that in this Grand Meeting, an unforeseen variable would suddenly appear!

Able to be compared with the likes of us — this person... who exactly are they?

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan and Tang Jingming hurriedly turned their heads, looking toward the same direction!

Soon, Jiang Yan's figure appeared in their eyes.

Seeing how young the other looked, both their faces changed, and they felt a surge of immense surprise!

Where did this freak jump out from?

Zhou Yan's expression grew solemn, his eyes narrowing slightly, and he said in a heavy voice: "For one to possess such talent truly makes me feel ashamed — I only wonder how I should address you?"

His heart was filled with doubt.

Tang Jingming was the closed-door disciple of Cloud Sun Master, and after years of tutelage under an alchemy Grandmaster, combined with his own outstanding natural gifts, his current alchemy attainments were hardly surprising.

But the person before them — where had he popped out from? Could he be a sect's hidden trump card secretly cultivated by the other two alchemy Grandmasters?

At this moment, Tang Jingming could not help but speak as well: "I, for one, am extremely curious — exactly which force could cultivate a heaven-defying genius like yourself?"

The surprise in his heart was no less than Zhou Yan's.

He had originally thought that with his own appearance, he was the greatest variable on the field.

Yet he never imagined that there was actually someone just like him!
