1800 The Commotion Caused By w.a.n.g Teng! (4)
Among the crowd were regular students, instructors, and of course more alchemists.
On the third day, the sky above Volcano No. 6 was filled with spectators.
Some busybodies even spread the news through the academy’s internal web.
‘Breaking News: Mysterious Alchemist Emerges in the Academy’s Alchemy Zone at Volcano No. 6, Refining 12 Grandmaster-Level Pills in Three Days, with 0 Failures!!!’
This piece of news was sensational.
12 grandmaster-level pills in three days and not a single failure!
Seriously?
When did grandmaster-level pills become so easy to make?
Initially, some had doubts about the authenticity of the news, but when someone uploaded videos of the bolts of lightning that appeared over the past three days at Volcano No. 6, all questions disappeared.
News could be fabricated, but calamity lightning couldn’t.
Yue Qiqiao and the others also saw this piece of news. At first, they didn’t react, but when they saw the mention of three days, they were stunned.
“Sister Yue, how many days has Boss been gone?” Wade asked curiously.
“I think three days? I haven’t seen him in three days!” Yue Qiqiao hesitated.
“Could it be…” Wade looked at the news on the internal web and asked in disbelief, “How’s our boss’s alchemy mastery?”
“He seems quite confident but he never explicitly told me,” Yue Qiqiao said, sounding uncertain. “I’ll ask Ji Haochen and the others. They might have a clearer idea.”
She hurriedly contacted Ji Haochen and told him about it. Before she could ask, Ji Haochen gave her a strange look and said firmly, “Yes, it must be him!”
“Are you sure?” Yue Qiqiao was puzzled.
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask Timothy. He knows better than me,” Ji Haochen said.
Hence, Yue Qiqiao contacted Timothy and received a surprisingly unanimous confirmation.
“Yes, it must be him!”
The same words came out of Timothy’s mouth. Yue Qiqiao almost thought that they coordinated their responses in advance.
“How do you know?” Yue Qiqiao asked speechlessly.
“w.a.n.g Teng is insane. He displayed his alchemist skills previously in the Great Qian Empire. Many people knew about it,” Timothy replied.
“However, he made 12 grandmaster-level pills in three days. This is crazy,” Ji Haochen lamented.
“He’s not just crazy. He’s a lunatic,” Yue Qiqiao complained furiously. She couldn’t hide her astonishment after getting the confirmation.
“Hahaha… you’ll be surprised more in the future. Prepare yourself,” Ji Haochen laughed heartily.
“Well, I better work on building my mental resilience. I don’t want to keep getting surprised by him every time,” Yue Qiqiao chuckled. “But on the bright side, it seems like we don’t need to do anything special. His reputation is bound to spread.”
“Huh? You make sense.” Ji Haochen and Timothy were stunned for a moment before they understood what she meant.
“That’s a good thing.” Wade smiled.
“When he comes out, everyone’s jaw will drop.” Yue Qiqiao smiled.
…
On the Solar Dragon Race’s side, Zhulong Shuang, Zhulong Hao, and the others saw this piece of news too. They asked someone to investigate the matter and confirmed the accuracy of the news. Then, they immediately headed to Volcano No. 6.
Zhulong Shan was also involved in this. He was still a member of the Solar Dragon Race so even though he failed once, he wouldn’t be thrown aside.
Meanwhile, members from other factions were also on the move. They all headed to Volcano No. 6.
A grandmaster alchemist was a rare and precious a.s.set to these academy factions.
What’s more, this alchemist was extremely efficient. He was like a money-printing machine!
If they could bring this person into their fold, it would be an enormous boon.
Most importantly, based on this grandmaster’s style of doing things, this should be his first appearance. There was no news of him previously.
That was why they all rushed to Volcano No. 6, hoping to be the first ones to recruit him into their ranks.
