Chapter 711

No one could help but sigh in admiration, and....... look up in awe!

After all, if the other party were only slightly ahead of them.

Being young and proud, full of arrogance, they would naturally believe that given enough time, they could catch up to the other's footsteps—so how could there be any talk of looking up in awe?

But when that lead grew to an utterly terrifying extent.

So terrifying that even if they exerted all their strength, they could not catch so much as a glimpse of the other's back.

Then no jealousy could arise in their hearts—only an overwhelming sense of powerlessness!

And so they could only look up in awe, and..... worship!

On the field.

Listening to the voices coming from all around.

Zhou Yan's expression grew increasingly unsightly.

With a dark and gloomy face, he looked around, swept his gaze across the area, and finally fixed his eyes on Jiang Yan.

"Damned bastard......."

Killing intent overflowed in his eyes, fury churning within.

Today's humiliation was the first he had ever encountered in his life.

If it weren't for the many eyesores around him.

He would surely tear this infinitely promising Yanchen into a thousand pieces and utterly strangle him in the cradle!

Only this way would no one be able to shake his position!

As for Tang Jingming?

Although he had won against him, it had only been a narrow victory.

He was confident that with another period of hard training, he could surpass him!

But facing this monster Yanchen, he truly had no such confidence.

Therefore, killing the other party was the best choice.

"It's just that, although I can't act now, that may not be the case in a little while......."

Zhou Yan's gaze turned vicious, the corners of his mouth curling up involuntarily into a cold smirk.

Although it only possessed a Star Wheel Realm cultivation base.

The Dao Protector who had followed him into the city possessed a Myriad Manifestations Realm cultivation base!

With such a formidable cultivation base, so long as this Yanchen left the city alone, how could he fail to kill him?

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan's brow smoothed out, and the fury in his heart instantly dissipated by more than half.

After all, how noble was his own status? Why would he need to squabble so much with a dead man?

"Little Pill King, Yanchen? Heh heh, in the end just a flash in the pan......."

On the other side

After all the judges descended from the stage one after another and verified Jiang Yan's results again and again.

The final rankings of this Alchemy Conference were finally born.

First place, Yanchen.

Second place, Tang Jingming.

Third place, Zhou Yan.

Faced with this cold, hard reality, Tang Jingming still found it somewhat unacceptable.

However, even though he had a thousand words in his heart, when they reached his lips, he could never bring himself to speak them.

Feeling the countless gazes coming from all directions.

He felt even more as if needles were pricking his back, exceptionally ill at ease.

With no choice, he could only silently lower his head, clench his fists tight, say nothing, and play the silent clam.

At this moment, the judge who had announced the results walked up before Jiang Yan.

He took out three rewards from his spatial ring and began to ask the other party which one he wished to choose.

As the first place of this Alchemy Conference, one would receive the chance to choose one of three.

Having long since made his plans, Jiang Yan did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately confirmed his reward.

Blue Silver Grass!

The judge nodded and casually withdrew the other two rewards.

Then he handed the Blue Silver Grass over to Jiang Yan.

Seeing the Blue Silver Grass his Master needed within arm's reach, Jiang Yan's eyes lit up, his heart surging with excitement.

He hurriedly stretched out both hands and carefully received the Blue Silver Grass.

Seeing this, a thoughtful look flashed through the judge's eyes.

He then said: "I wonder what this young friend's opinion of our Profound Pill Sect is?"

As the words fell.

Jiang Yan, who had just stored the Blue Silver Grass into the Cangwu Token, raised an eyebrow and instantly caught the hidden meaning in the other's words.

Wasn't this just an attempt to recruit him into the sect?

It's just that, although this Profound Pill Sect's alchemy standards were high.

Compared to his own Master.

The difference was more than worlds apart!

Therefore, why would he need to join it and bring trouble upon himself?
