Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s
Chapter 487 - 485, Alchemy

Chapter 487: 485, Alchemy

Only when the pill furnace emitted strands of medicinal fragrance did everyone come to their senses.

"It seems like the elixir is about to be formed. Who would have thought that Tianchi Country actually has such an outstanding alchemist."

"It looks like Tianchi Country has really come with a bang this time!"

"I heard she’s the player who won first place for Tianchi Country this time, and her strength has already reached the Spirit Division Mid Stage."

"Our Fengyu Country has plenty of Spirit Division Cultivators, what’s so amazing about that?"

"You wouldn’t say that if you knew her age. I specifically asked about the players from Tianchi Country this time. She’s only nineteen years old. Have you ever seen a nineteen-year-old Spirit Division Cultivator?"

"What!" Everyone gaped in shock, unable to believe as they turned their gaze toward Luo Shu on the stage.

Upon hearing the sound of elixirs rolling in the pill furnace, Luo Shu raised her hand and slapped it, collecting the elixir into the porcelain bottle in her hand.

After placing the porcelain bottle on the table, Luo Shu looked around and saw that more than half of the cultivators had already started crafting, and the pill furnaces of several people even emitted the fragrance of elixirs. This alchemy competition was indeed full of talented individuals. Had it not been for Xiao Qing’s tip-off, she might not have been the first to finish.

Her gaze shifted toward the crowd of onlookers and saw Lu Hanmo, who was smiling at her. Luo Shu’s lips curved into a blissful smile. No matter when, as long as he was there, she felt at ease.

An hour passed quickly, and with the announcement from the elder with the long beard, everyone stopped what they were doing.

A few cultivators responsible for recording the results went on stage and began to tally the levels of the elixirs that everyone had crafted.

After the results were tallied, they quickly submitted the records to the judges, who determined the final results of the competition. Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion.

"You’re very good!" A voice laced with coldness came from beside Luo Shu.

Luo Shu turned her head and saw that the one speaking to her was one of the several people who had glared at her earlier. He was dressed in a black robe, exuding an eerily chilly presence. If she wasn’t wrong, this man should be Yuwen Qisha, whom Yun Han had mentioned before.

Seeing Luo Shu looking at him, Yuwen Qisha coldly smiled, "I hope you can keep it up." He had never lost before, and it irked him to think that he might lose to a woman weaker than himself this time.

"Thank you!" Luo Shu’s lips curled into a cold smirk. She detested people who couldn’t handle losing.

The results of the competition were announced very quickly, and Luo Shu unsurprisingly took first place, with Yuwen Qisha coming in second.

Yuwen Qisha swept a cold glance over Luo Shu and stepped down from the stage.

Luo Shu snickered mockingly and stepped down from the stage as well. If it really came down to it, in the final match, the loser may not necessarily be her, should she face Yuwen Qisha.

With Tianchi Country taking the lead this time, the other three countries, which previously didn’t pay much attention to Tianchi Country, regarded it with newfound respect.

After stepping down from the stage and receiving congratulations from the people of Tianchi Country, Luo Shu found a place to rest and recharge. In half an hour, she would have to participate in the Talisman Crafting competition. Yun Han had mentioned before that Yuwen Qisha was an Earth-Rank Seventh Level Talisman Master, so naturally, she would meet him again in the Talisman Crafting competition. She just wasn’t sure if his current level was his true level of strength.

Lu Hanmo and Yun Han did not come to find Luo Shu. With the Four Kingdoms Tournament underway, seeking her out at this time would surely provoke speculation from others. If another country used their interaction with contestants from other countries as an excuse to disqualify them, they would truly miss out on the chance for that map. She had no intention of staying in this world forever.

Half a shichen passed in the blink of an eye, and when Luo Shu took the stage again, she indeed saw Yuwen Qisha once more. Coincidentally, their positions were adjacent again, separated only by a single aisle.

"I hope you can still win this time," Yuwen Qisha said with a sneer. He was still brooding over the previous competition. If he lost again, how could he face everyone? Therefore, he must win this match.

Luo Shu, who seemed to not understand the meaning behind Yuwen Qisha’s words, replied with a smile, "Thank you! I will definitely win! Just like the last time."

"I’ll be waiting!" Yuwen Qisha revealed a malevolent and cunning smile, like that of a bloodthirsty predator.

Luo Shu curved her lips into a smile, then withdrew her gaze and paid no more attention to Yuwen Qisha.

The competition began once more, and everyone on stage concentrated their spirits, dedicating themselves completely to Talisman Crafting. They were all the best of the best, selected from countless people, naturally hoping to maintain their previous achievements in this competition and showcase their excellence to people from all four countries.

Luo Shu didn’t look at the level of the talisman Yuwen Qisha was crafting. Since she intended to win, she had to give it her all and push her limits to the extreme.

After the competition started, Yuwen Qisha also didn’t pay attention to Luo Shu’s progress. He was very confident in this match. Everyone thought he was an Earth-Rank Seventh Level Talisman Master, but only he himself knew that his skill in Talisman Crafting was far higher than what everyone else was aware of.

The competition proceeded intensely, and as time passed, more and more participants finished crafting their talismans.

The talisman Luo Shu was crafting this time was beyond her usual level, so naturally, the speed of her crafting wasn’t fast.

"The competition is almost over; why hasn’t Luo Shu finished crafting yet?"

"It’s really nerve-wracking; she better not fail at the critical moment!"

"Only five minutes left, Luo Shu, come on! You must not lose!" The people of Tianchi Country watched Luo Shu with anxiety and concern, hoping that time would pass more slowly, even just a little slower.

Yuwen Qisha turned his head to look at Luo Shu, seeing that she had not yet finished crafting her talisman, and a hint of disdain curved his lips. She wants to win against him again, who does she think she is?

Time ticked away rapidly by the second.

At this moment, countless people were watching Luo Shu. Because her performance in the previous match was so stellar, they all hoped to see her outstanding performance this time as well.

"There are only three minutes left until the competition is over, it seems like she is going to fail this time."

"I thought she would bring us an amazing performance, I didn’t expect it to turn out like this."

"It’s too early to decide the winner or loser before the final moment."

"She was overconfident this time. If she had chosen a lower level to ensure stability, even if not the first, securing the second place would have been no problem."

"In the last match, she won against Yuwen Qisha, but it seems there is no hope for her this time," discussed the judges among themselves in the referee’s seat.

In these two matches, the ones they were most optimistic about were Luo Shu and Yuwen Qisha. Both were geniuses among geniuses. Although Yuwen Qisha’s strength was higher than Luo Shu’s, Luo Shu was younger than Yuwen Qisha. By the time Luo Shu reached Yuwen Qisha’s age, her strength might not necessarily be weaker than his. However, it was still a surprise to them that Luo Shu could win against Yuwen Qisha in the last match.
