Supreme Crazy Wife-Chapter 95 - You’ve Already Got Me (5)
Chapter 95: You’ve Already Got Me (5)
Leng Ruoxue’s team was the first to go on stage today, and her last opponent was the team led by Huo Qing.
On the arena, Leng Ruoxue sized up the composed Huo Qing. Today was the last battle of the team competition. In the previous three matches, Leng Ruoxue’s team had won complete victories, so she would still be the champion of the team competition even if she lost this match.
But Huo Qing’s situation was different. In the last three matches, Huo Qing’s team had lost to Mu Li’s, tied with Big Brother Feng’s, and only won one victory against Feng Da’s. The pressure on Huo Qing was tremendous, and this stunning genius probably never expected such a situation to happen!
However, this was a team competition after all, and the overall strength was more important. Even if he was a genius, it was useless without good teammates.
While Leng Ruohan was sizing Huo Qing up, he was also sizing her up. This beautiful girl was Leng Ruohan’s sister and used to be a simpleton. But after a few days of observation, he found that this girl was harder to deal with than her elder brother because he still couldn’t tell what her strength was until now. Moreover, she seemed to win every battle very easily, as though she didn’t use her full strength at all.
“You are the strongest opponent I have ever met,” Huo Qing said. He was helpless against such a strong opponent because the strength of his teammates was not comparable in the team competition. But he had to compete with her in the individual competition. This seemingly weak and beautiful girl had already aroused his intense fighting spirit!
“Likewise!” Leng Ruoxue said lightly. She knew that the team competition wouldn’t allow Huo Qing to unleash his full strength. The real competition between them was the individual competition.
“Let’s end this quickly!” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Okay!” He didn’t want to waste time.
The two teams got into formation and began to attack the opponents according to the pre-planned strategy. Soon, two people from Huo Qing’s team were eliminated, and then Huo Qing declared their defeat.
In less than 10 minutes, Huo Qing announced his defeat, much to the disappointment of many people who wanted to watch a good show. They originally thought that this battle would be very interesting, but it ended so quickly.
Leng Ruoxue became famous because of her outstanding performance in the entire team competition.
In the end, Leng Ruoxue and her team won the team competition. Mu Li’s team was in second place, Huo Qing’s and Feng Moran’s teams tied for third place, and Feng Da’s team was in fourth place.
After the team competition, the academies were also ranked. Only the top 10 academies were eligible to participate in the individual competition.
After the spiritualist team competition, it was the alchemist competition. The alchemist competition was divided into preliminaries, semifinal, and final. As there were only twenty or so alchemists participating in the competition, the competition was scheduled to take place over two days. The first day was the preliminaries, which was divided into two rounds. The first round would be to concoct a designated pill chosen by the judges, who would provide the raw materials for the pills. The second round was for the students to concoct the pills that they were best at, and the judges would grade the pills. The judges of the competition were professional alchemists sent by the Alchemist Association, and this competition could also be considered a competition for the Alchemist Association to select talents.
On the day of the alchemy preliminaries, Leng Ruoxue and the others accompanied Liu Yan to the competition venue.
“Liu Yan, remember, your ranking isn’t important. It’s enough for you to unleash your full strength,” Leng Ruoxue said to Liu Yan, who was about to go on stage.
“Yes, I will,” Liu Yan said gratefully. It was his first time participating in such an important competition, and he was indeed under a lot of pressure.
The first round’s designated pill was only an elementary-level pill, the amplification pill, and it wasn’t difficult for the twenty or so alchemists present to concoct. The test for this round was not whether they could concoct the pill. It mainly tested whether the alchemists’ foundations were strong, which was very important for alchemists.
As the last alchemists on the field extinguished their flames, the more than twenty alchemists completed their first test. They were only waiting for the judges to grade them now.
In the first test of concocting the designated pill, Liu Yan obtained second place. Ranked above him was a genius from the Rising Dragon Academy’s alchemy division, Liu Qing.
“Second place, that’s great!” Elder Qiu said excitedly. Liu Yan was the number one person in their Heavenly Phoenix Academy’s alchemy division!
“Elder Qiu, the preliminaries aren’t over yet.” Leng Ruoxue poured cold water on him. This old man has been a little too excited these days.
“Uh…” Elder Qiu also felt that he had been a little too smug.
The second round was to concoct the pills that they were best at. Leng Ruoxue knew that Liu Yan wanted to concoct an intermediate pill, the essence enhancing pill. It was a pill that you had to master to become an Alchemist.
The grades of pills were divided into elementary, intermediate, advanced, earth-grade, and heaven-grade. Each grade was also divided into low, middle, and high. Apprentice Alchemists had to be able to concoct elementary pills, Alchemists had to be able to concoct intermediate pills, and so on. Concocting pills that matched the level of the alchemist was also an important basis for the assessment of the alchemist.
The more than twenty students on the field methodically threw the medicinal herbs into the pill furnace in order. After the medicinal herbs melted, they condensed the pills according to alchemist techniques until the pills were ready.
Seeing that the students on stage had completed their concocting, the crowd below the stage waited patiently for the judges’ scores.
About half an hour late, the results were finally out. Liu Yan was still second and had successfully entered the semifinal. A total of ten alchemists advanced to the semifinal, and only three alchemists could enter the final, so the semifinal would be very intense.
…
At the residence of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy in the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion…
“Liu Yan, tell me if you don’t have enough medicinal herbs.” Leng Ruoxue came to Liu Yan’s room and said to Liu Yan, who was practicing. Then she didn’t bother him anymore and conveniently dragged away Elder Qiu, who came along with her.
“Ruoxue, why didn’t you let me speak?” Elder Qiu asked in puzzlement.
“Don’t give him pressure. He’s the number one genius of our academy’s alchemist division. You should have confidence in him,” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Of course, I have confidence in him. I just want to encourage him!” Elder Qiu said aggrievedly.
