Chapter 55: Pissing the Alchemist Genius Off!

Soon four hours had passed.

The sky gradually darkened.

Zhao Honglian, who looked exhausted, walked out of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

This time, the assessment at the fifth level had benefited her a lot although she had not entered the sixth level.

However, it gave her a new understanding of alchemy.

She could already refine a Tier 4 elixir into eight golden threads!

Moreover, her success rate of achieving eight golden threads kept increasing, reaching 50 percent!

If not for the fact that the spiritual energy in her body could not support her to continue in the assessment,

Zhao Honglian felt that she would definitely have a chance to pass the assessment and enter the sixth level of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion if she was given another four hours.

In her opinion, Shen Ran had also entered the fifth level.

At most, he could refine high-grade elixirs. It would be difficult for him to even refine five golden threads!

But the moment she stepped outside, she did not hear anything.

Even when she looked over, everyone’s gaze became strange.

There was silence. Everyone froze.

Zhao Honglian was stunned. She had a bad feeling.

She looked up sharply at the stone tower beside the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

She saw her own name.

But at this moment, her name was ranked third!!

Shen Ran had already surpassed her!

Zhao Honglian did not think that Shen Ran had already entered the sixth level.

Because to a genius like her, she had been on the fifth level for half a year!

How could someone who had just come to the Myriad Medicine Pavilion to take the assessment surpass her in a few days?

She guessed that Shen Ran might have also refined eight golden threads and had a higher success rate than her.

Zhao Honglian’s tired eyes narrowed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal.

I haven’t met such an opponent in a long time. I’m a little curious about this person.

She turned around and took an elixir to recover her spiritual energy. Under everyone’s gaze, she walked into the Myriad Medicine Pavilion behind her.

Looking at Zhao Honglian’s back, the people did not dare to discuss loudly this time. Instead, they chatted in low voices.

…

Soon another four hours passed.

Zhao Honglian walked out of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion with bloodshot eyes.

At this moment, her eyes were bloodshot and her cheeks were sallow. She no longer looked like a fairy from heaven.

I should be able to surpass this person this time, right?

Zhao Honglian had already passed the fifth level and successfully entered the sixth level.

However, because the spiritual energy in her body was insufficient and she had been refining pills for a long time, she was mentally exhausted.

It forced her to quit.

But when she came out and faced the strange gazes of the silent onlookers, she had a bad feeling.

Zhao Honglian looked up and saw that her name was still ranked third!

And Shen Ran… was still on top!

How is that possible!!!

This time, Zhao Honglian could not hold it in anymore.

She originally thought that by entering the sixth level, she could change her ranking!

But she did not expect that she would still be ranked third!!

Then this Shen Ran must have also entered the sixth level!

And it was before her!

But it only took the other party four days!

It took her, the alchemy genius of the Empyrean Sword Sect, half a year!!!

Because she had been refining pills for a long time, the spiritual energy in her body was insufficient. Now that she was agitated, Zhao Honglian felt her surroundings spinning.

Then everything went black.

She fainted.

They saw Zhao Honglian faint.

The crowd that had quietened down could no longer suppress their shock.

“Who is this Shen Ran? Senior Sister Zhao actually failed to surpass him twice. Could this person’s alchemy talent be higher than Senior Sister Zhao’s?!”

“Hiss… Senior Sister Zhao fainted from anger. Senior Brother Shen Ran is too strong!”

…

This scene represented something terrifying.

They could not imagine how talented Shen Ran was in alchemy that Zhao Honglian could not surpass him!

At this moment, the name Shen Ran, accompanied by Zhao Honglian’s coma, left an extremely strong impression on the disciples around the Myriad Medicine Pavilion!

…

At the same time, Shen Ran, who had just finished cultivating, regained his spiritual energy.

He continued the assessment in one go.

The sixth level’s assessment was undoubtedly much more difficult than all the previous assessments.

Even he failed after trying again.

He could only increase the success rate of the level five medicinal pill to 30 percent.

He silently calculated the time in his heart. He had already entered the Myriad Medicine Pavilion for four days.

There were still 10 days left until the sect tournament.

During this period of time, he planned to cultivate well and prepare for the sect tournament.

Then he ended the assessment and left.

He had just walked out of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

It attracted countless calls.

“Look, he’s Senior Brother Shen from the Eighth Summit!”

“I didn’t expect that even Senior Sister Zhao is not his match!”

…

Hearing the exclamations of the disciples around him, Shen Ran was a little surprised.

A moment later.

He finally understood what was going on.

It turned out that he was unknowingly ranked second in the stone tower, surpassing the popular Zhao Honglian.

Thinking of this, Shen Ran smiled at the surrounding disciples.

“I just passed the assessment and need spiritual herbs to practice. If you’re interested, you can bring the materials to the Eighth Summit.”

After he finished speaking, he turned into a rainbow and headed straight for the Eighth Summit.

When the disciples stationed around the Myriad Medicine Pavilion saw that Shen Ran had left, they also left.

However, the incident of Shen Ran defeating Zhao Honglian became widespread rumors in the Empyrean Sword Sect!

Everyone knew about it!

It even reached the ears of many Marquis Realm elders.

…

Two days later.

Zhao Honglian stood silently under the stone tower.

She looked at Shen Ran’s name, who was still ranked second.

For the first time, her eyes dimmed.

In the past two days, she had been trying continuously. She had used all her strength and even exceeded her usual performance, but she still could not surpass Shen Ran.

“How talented are you!”

Zhao Honglian muttered to herself. Shen Ran’s name was deeply imprinted in her heart, unable to be dispelled, like a mental demon.
