When Shen Longxuan turned around, Huo Chong had already left his seat to welcome him, "Haha, I didn"t expect the three sect masters to come personally, it is my honor!"The people who came were Zhan Tian, Kuang Ying and Fei Ming, as well as the six alchemist from Three Sects. After greeting each other, everyone returned to the great hall.
"Shen Longxuan?" The sharp-eyed Kuang Ying noticed Shen Longxuan"s existence first and screamed loudly.
The moment he said this, everyone looked over and laughed loudly: "Looks like the popularity of the Dear Nephew Longxuan isn"t bad. There are people who know them everywhere.
Since you all know him, I will not introduce him to you guys. It"s just that if he has any problems with Dear Nephew Longxuan and looks like it on the surface, he can help me out! "
Ga ~
Everyone was petrified. A fifth grade Pill Refiner was respected in the Outer Realm and was someone everyone wanted to be on good terms with. But it was precisely this kind of person who actually treated Shen Longxuan so well.
It would have been fine if they didn"t know Shen Longxuan, but the crowd was extremely familiar with him, and he was just an inner disciple with a bit of a gift.
What was going on?
Envy, jealousy, and hate filled their eyes!
"Shen Longxuan, you broke through?" At this moment, someone exclaimed.
Everyone could clearly see that Shen Longxuan"s cultivation base, which was originally at the peak of the Martial Master Scripture, was now at the peak of the Second Stage of Martial King Stage.
Zhan Tian finally reacted and laughed loudly. "Long Xuan, it seems like you"ve made quite a bit of progress in this year"s experiential learning?"
"This …" Seeing the joy in his eyes, Huo Zhenghong was also stupefied. Cough cough, exactly what does the Dear Nephew Longxuan have to do with you guys? "
"Hahaha, you still don"t know?" Shen Longxuan is an inner disciple of our Dragon Martial Sect, so he believes that he should be taking the a.s.sessment this time.
To be able to receive Elder Fire"s favor is truly a blessing of his three lifetimes. Here, I thank Elder Fire on his behalf, hahaha … "
Zhan Tian then stood up and bowed. Huo Tianxiong was not only a martial cultivator of the Martial Grandmaster Stage, he was also a pill refiner of the fifth grade.
Kuang Ying and Fei Ming didn"t feel good about this. Seeing that Yue Yang had such a huge backer after coming out to train, thinking of how he had even come to their doorstep to curry favor with them, Fei Ming had no way to reason with him!
"Ah, so that"s the case, no wonder, so it"s the Dragon Martial Sect"s disciple. Ah, then I won"t make things difficult for him, I originally wanted to take him in as my disciple …"
Huo Rulie"s words caused everyone to be shocked once again. If he could become Elder Huo"s inner disciple, then he would certainly become an influential figure in the future. How did such a good opportunity fall on Shen Longxuan?
Just as Zhan Tian was about to speak, Huo Rankong changed the topic. He said, "You must have come today because of the compet.i.tion, right?"
"Uh, that"s right …"
Everyone"s gaze moved away from Shen Longxuan. This made him feel much more comfortable, and he started to size up the alchemists that Three Sects had brought.
The two from the Dragon Martial Sect looked to be around forty years old. Of course, one could not tell from their actual age, they both emitted a dense aura of flames. From their clothes, they should be elders of the Dragon Martial Sect.
Shen Longxuan, however, was an expert, so he didn"t know any of them. One of them had a face as white as jade, and a smile that was as refreshing as spring wind.
The other man had a ruddy complexion, thick eyebrows, and big eyes. When he lifted his hand, he gave off a bold and powerful feeling. Both of them gave people a favorable impression of him.
When Shen Longxuan looked at the other two pill refiners, the taste changed. Although they all looked like humans and dogs, they all had their nose to the sky, making it hard for people to look at them directly.
Finally, when everyone had finished conversing, Shen Longxuan followed Zhan Tian and the others and left. Huo Tiankong let out a sigh, as he walked into the depths of the hall.
As soon as they went back to their residence, Zhan Tian impatiently said, "Long Xuan, why didn"t you agree to it earlier? Do you know how enviable it was to become the disciple of the Fire Spirit Sect"s Elder Huo?"
"Indeed, little fellow. Even though I am a grade-4 apothecary, if Elder Huo were to tell me so, I would immediately agree to it!"
Don"t blame him. Oh right, brat, why did you come to Fire Spirit Sect?
The moment Shen Longxuan entered the room, he was immediately bombarded. Now he could finally speak, "Sect Master, Elders, it"s not that I don"t want to agree, but it"s just that it"s not my turn to speak up just now right?"
Zhan Tian and the other two looked at each other. In their impression, this was indeed the case. They hadn"t given him the chance to speak just now!
"Don"t worry, then if Old Man is sincere, he will definitely look for me again! As for why I came to the Fire Spirit Sect, of course I"ll be like you guys, to attend the general a.s.sembly and gain experience! "
Shen Longxuan didn"t tell them the truth because he wanted to give them a pleasant surprise. When he thought of Zhan Tian"s dumbstruck expression, Shen Longxuan became excited.
"Fine, come watch the match with me tomorrow! Alright, you guys can go down and make your preparations. As long as you can enter the top 100, it"ll be good! " Zhan Tian rubbed his eyebrows as he spoke.
"Yes, Sect Leader!" "Then we"ll go and prepare." The two apothecaries hurriedly left.
Shen Longxuan also took this chance to walk out and returned to his own small hut. It was spotless inside, as if there was someone constantly cleaning the place, he sat down at the bedside and closed his eyes to cultivate!
The night pa.s.sed in silence!
The next morning, Shen Longxuan was woken up by a burst of noise. He pushed open the door and walked out, only to see a tide of people walking past his door, all in one direction, towards the venue!
Today, a grand battle was going to take place here. The top pill refiners of the entire foreign land would all gather here to compete for the top spot!
Shen Longxuan also joined the crowd, and some familiar figures appeared in front of them. For example, the brothers w.a.n.g Ying and w.a.n.g Sen, when they saw Shen Longxuan, they suddenly stopped and ran away as if they had gone mad.
Shen Longxuan rubbed his nose, was he really that scary? It"s not like he was a ferocious beast.
Along the way, he met Lu Yuan, who was also a fourth tier alchemist. When he saw that Shen Longxuan was not wearing any clothes with Fire Spirit Sect"s unique patterns, he couldn"t help but look at him with a look of despise.
When he heard that Shen Longxuan was also partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion, he swore to make Shen Longxuan lose all face during it, and snorted coldly as he walked forward.
Everyone quickly arrived at the venue. Although there were only 1000 partic.i.p.ants, the stands were packed. There were even some who didn"t have seats standing in the aisles, wanting to watch the triennial pill refining event.
"Do you know? "This year"s Pill Refining a.s.sembly will be different. The contestants will be at least grade-3 apothecaries!"
"That"s right, no wonder there were only 1,000 seats prepared. So it turns out that the compet.i.tion standards have increased, which also shows that this year"s compet.i.tion will be even more intense. Just thinking about this makes my blood boil."
"Indeed. Usually, it is rare to see even one or two of them around. To be able to witness a battle between over a thousand grade-3 apothecaries today, it is truly a sight to behold!"
Shen Longxuan sat beside Zhan Tian, feeling excited as he listened to the discussions of the people around him.
"Long Xuan, do you feel excited? If you can become the disciple of Elder Huo, then there will definitely be a place for you within ten years."
Zhan Tian"s words were like a ladle of cold water extinguishing the flames on Shen Longxuan"s body. However, when he thought about Zhan Tian"s expression, he became even more excited.
