Chapter 29: Dan Qianqian: Hurry Up, Don't Disturb My Romance with Xu Chen (4/10)
At this moment, the boys in line ground their teeth, while the girls cursed Dan Qianqian as a little bitch.
This little bitch actually took the initiative to seduce a handsome guy. Pfft.
Ye Xuan's expression darkened slightly, and that familiar sensation of losing something surged within him again.
He gritted his teeth. Since Li Ruoling ignored him, he had developed feelings for this Dan Qianqian after entering the academy.
Gentle, beautiful, kind, with a pleasant voice—she was the ideal partner in his heart.
Several days ago, he had already been frequenting this place.
Pity, he never got to speak with her.
But now, Dan Qianqian had actually taken Xu Chen's hand and even given him special treatment?
Veins bulged on his forehead; he had been queuing for this spot since an hour ago.
He had thought that as long as he acted arrogant, he would surely win Dan Qianqian's favor.
Who would have expected Xu Chen to interfere? Damn it.
He had not intended to reveal his true strength, but now Xu Chen had angered him.
Dan Qianqian, wait until I crush Xu Chen, and you will see who is better.
He clenched both fists, waiting for his chance.
"Qianqian, your uncle has brought elixirs today."
Just then, an old man's laughter rang out.
Dan Qianqian was in a tender moment with Xu Chen, overjoyed.
Interrupted by someone, she felt slightly displeased.
She looked up and saw it was Elder Tianhuo.
She looked somewhat helpless and forced a smile: "It's Uncle Tianhuo. Thank you for your trouble."
Tianhuo laughed: "Child, since I often bring elixirs, could you do my disciple a favor?"
His words implied he wanted Ye Xuan to skip the line.
If anyone else had said this, she would have ignored them.
But since it was her father's friend Tianhuo speaking, she could only agree: "Very well, Uncle. Let Ye Xuan go first."
Having spoken, Dan Qianqian turned to Xu Chen, a hint of guilt in her eyes: "Sorry, I will make it up to you later."
Xu Chen: "???"
He looked bewildered: "You already gave me special treatment; I should be thanking you."
Dan Qianqian wasn't like Li Ruoling; surely she didn't have a small crack in her brain too.
Hearing this, Dan Qianqian shook her head: "Yes, after all, we agreed you would go first."
Xu Chen felt a headache; he just came to collect a reward, yet the heroine said she would compensate him.
If she made Dan Qianqian beat up Ye Xuan, wouldn't that be possible too?
No, no, no; he just wanted to follow the plot. Don't do that, don't do that.
Tianhuo chuckled: "Niece, do not worry; Ye Xuan will finish very soon."
Hearing this, Ye Xuan was instantly overjoyed.
Now, he would definitely crush Xu Chen.
With that thought, Ye Xuan walked confidently to Dan Qianqian and smiled lightly: "Excuse me, Miss Qianqian."
Dan Qianqian muttered: "Since you know you are interrupting, hurry up; I still need to talk romance with my Brother Chen."
Ye Xuan: "..."
Damn it! What exactly is so good about Xu Chen?
I will show you right now who the child of fortune truly is.
Therefore, he gritted his teeth and said: "Then, Miss Qianqian, please test my realm to see what elixir I can receive."
Dan Qianqian took a testing stone and placed it before Ye Xuan, slightly impatient: "Test it."
Xu Chen looked; the testing stone was about the size of a human head, entirely green, with a faint glow swirling around it.
It resembled jade, yet its spiritual energy was dense, and its surface was not perfectly smooth.
The tester only needed to circulate spiritual energy, place a hand on the testing stone, and the spiritual energy screen beside it would immediately display the realm.
Xu Chen looked at the spiritual energy screen; it looked very much like a screen.
Only the spiritual energy screen was more magnificent, formed from condensed spiritual energy, hovering in midair, untouchable.
Ye Xuan said calmly: "I hope my result will not surprise Miss Qianqian too much."
Having spoken, he fully circulated his spiritual energy and then covered the testing stone with his right hand.
"Buzz!"
The next second, spiritual energy surged, pouring into the testing stone.
In an instant, the testing stone emitted light, flashing continuously.
Then, on the spiritual energy screen beside it, a line of text quickly appeared: Fourth Grade, Early Stage!
"Hush!"
As soon as those words appeared, the crowd erupted in uproar.
A mere new student who had entered the Academy only a month ago, yet Fourth Grade, Early Stage?
Such a realm; not to mention any new student, many senior students had not reached it.
This Ye Xuan truly is the child of fortune, with explosive talent!
Seeing this, Tianhuo laughed proudly: "Worthy of being my disciple; such a result should rank first among new students and surely cause a sensation in the Academy.
In time, perhaps he could even compete for the position of Young Palace Master."
Hearing the shocked murmurs around him, the corners of Ye Xuan's mouth curled upward slightly, and his confidence returned.
Such talent is indeed not something everyone can possess.
At this moment, Dan Qianqian must be stunned.
With that thought, Ye Xuan looked at Dan Qianqian, only to freeze on the spot the next second.
He saw that Dan Qianqian's expression was calm, with not even a ripple in her eyes.
She said lightly: "Not bad. Do you want to test further?"
Ye Xuan's mouth twitched; with his cultivation realm, he should be the top among the new students, right?
Top among the new students, and you, Shan Qianqian, show no reaction at all?
Ye Xuan grew angry: "I want to test my alchemist rank."
Cultivating both alchemy and martial arts, a fourth-rank alchemist—I don't believe you can remain unmoved by that.
PS: Fourth update!!! Requesting all kinds of data!!!
Tian Huo heard this and immediately stroked his beard, laughing: "Not bad. If you make progress in the Dao of Alchemy, you can also claim a reward."
He thought that if his disciple were the only one to claim two rewards, it would bring him great honor.
Others would say that the genius disciple who cultivated both Alchemy and Martial Arts was trained by him, Tian Huo.
Shan Qianqian said, "Then hurry up and refine it; the people behind you are waiting."
Her words carried a hint of impatience.
Everyone else presses the testing stone, claims their reward, and leaves. Only you, Ye Xuan, have so many complications.
Ye Xuan gritted his teeth: "Fine."
Shan Qianqian, you will be shocked and in awe soon enough.
With that thought, he began to take out his alchemy furnace and refine pills under the gaze of the crowd.
The pill he intended to refine this time was the Fourth-Grade Lingyou Pill.
This pill can, to a certain extent, beautify the complexion and calm the mind.
Simply put, it can make the heart empty and clear, doubling the efficiency of comprehension.
This item may seem useless, but it is actually highly beneficial.
Ye Xuan refined this pill specifically to show off.
When Shan Qianqian is shocked, he will present the pill to her; at that time, she will surely be moved.
Thinking that after showing off, he could also win the favor of a beauty, it was truly satisfying!
With that thought, Ye Xuan began to diligently refine the Fourth-Grade Lingyou Pill.
Xu Chen watched this scene, his heart calm this time.
This was a plot not in the original text, but the system said it was no major issue.
Then he would just watch the show.
About thirty minutes later, Ye Xuan slapped the alchemy furnace, and a pill the size of a dragon's eye immediately flew out.
Accompanied by a rich medicinal fragrance, the pill slowly hovered above Ye Xuan's palm.
