Chapter 803

Jiang Chen was standing on the square, but what he cared most about was not the competition . He would certainly pass all three tests . However, the winner would be with the team with the most people passing the tests .

Jiang Chen knew none of the other nine participants representing the Elixir Association . He did not even know their names .

Just try my best . This was Jiang Chen’s plan, but there were always unexpected incidents arising . He found those from the Elixir Association all looked serious, as if they were going to confront a powerful enemy .

“What a dirty move . ” He even heard someone cursing those representing the Elixir Fire Union .

Jiang Chen looked over out of curiosity and tumbled to the reason . Four days ago, they saw their ten rivals on the Elixir Emperor’s ship, and their rivals saw the ten of them too . However, today, they were seeing new faces among the representatives of the Elixir Fire Union, most of whom they had never seen before .

It was not difficult to guess why the Elixir Fire Union had done this .

The short-haired woman they had seen had been the leader of the ten . She had been walking at the front and sitting at the front of the team . However, today she was standing in the middle of the team, like a star outshone by the sun and the moon .

“Where did the Elixir Fire Union find these people?”

As an alchemist, Jiang Chen knew immediately that the new team sent by the Elixir Fire Union had a very high level . They were much stronger than the ten representatives of the Elixir Association .

Both the Elixir Fire Union and the Elixir Association could decide their own ten-person list, and they had the right to make adjustments to it even at the last minute before the competition . However, given how important the competition was, the Elixir Association did not see any point in playing tricks, so they sent their best ten people directly .

They did not expect the Elixir Fire Union to play such a dirty trick .

Chen Xi landed from the Elixir Emperor’s ship . She was an average young Venerable . Her prestige came from her identity as the Elixir Emperor’s descendant . However, she was obviously very confident . Her smile was quite touching .

“Any problem?”

Noticing what was going on with the Elixir Association’s team, she asked confusedly .

“No, no problem . ”

Elder Zhuge was there too . He shook his head bitterly without spitting the problem out, since it was impossible for him to admit the Elixir Fire Union’s team was stronger than theirs .

“All right . Let’s start then . ”

Someone from the Elixir Fire Union’s team walked over . It was the pretty woman who had confronted the men from the Elixir Tower in Beiwang City . Jiang Chen and Yang Jingchi exchanged a look . It was surprising to both of them that this woman would be in such a high position in the Elixir Fire Union .

Jiang Chen thought of the assassination aimed at him . He supposed this woman was the one behind it .

“As a new arising force, the Elixir Fire Union has recruited many talented people . ”

Chen Xi noticed the ten people the Elixir Fire Union had sent as well . She was surprised also . As the Elixir Emperor’s descendant, she saw the gap between the two teams right away .

“Well, the Elixir Association is still greater . They have a 1,000-year history and inheritance . ” The pretty woman looked extremely complacent . It seemed she had flattered the Elixir Association, but actually her tone was sarcastic .

“How modest you are . Let’s start then . ” Elder Zhuge answered, though a little embarrassed .



Except for the 20 participants, all of the others walked out of the square .

Jiang Chen saw Elder Zhuge and Bai Xuan talking in low voices, trying to figure out a way to resolve the problem .

“The first test is to refine elixirs . ”


Chen Xi was very relaxed . It was not a big deal for her to host this competition .

“Not average elixirs, but the Retaining Youth Elixir . ”

All of the 20 participants on the square, including Jiang Chen, were surprised . The Retaining Youth Elixir was a very special elixir . Its name told its use . It was an elixir that could retain youth . It would not help with practicing . Neither would it increase one’s life expectancy . Even so, the Retaining Youth Elixir was still very popular, especially among women . However, it was very difficult to refine . The success rate was very low, and the herbs required were also relatively rare . Most important, the Retaining Youth Elixir’s drug properties were very limited .

The Retaining Youth Elixir refined by some alchemists could only delay the aging process for four or five days . It was almost useless . The Retaining Youth Elixirs that could delay the aging process for several months were more popular, but they could not reverse the course of nature either . They could not help white-haired old men become young again .

The investment was out of proportion to the return . As a result, only a few people would refine it . It was reasonable for Chen Xi to use the Retaining Youth Elixir to evaluate an alchemist’s level . However, except for Jiang Chen, all of the other 19 people on the square were very nervous . It was a huge challenge for them .

“Let’s start,” Chen Xi announced again .

Soon, the spiritual herbs needed by the Retaining Youth Elixir were left at each person’s feet . There was only one portion for each spiritual herb . Any mistake would be equivalent to failure . Then, the participants took out a furnace one by one . They put the furnaces in the slot connected to the fire .

“Look at the young one!”



An alchemists’ competition was not as intense or as dazzling as a competition of martial arts techniques . The audience were sizing each participant up calmly, watching what they were doing .

When they looked toward Jiang Chen, they started a heated discussion .

“Sis, what are they laughing at?” Seeing the people laughing, Ji Yinyi asked confusedly .

“His furnace . My master’s furnace is average compared with others’,” Ji Ruxue said .

There had been an Elixir Emperor from Heaven Divine City . So the citizens here knew more about refining elixirs . They also knew different furnaces had a great influence on the control of the fire and the end result of elixirs .

The alchemists in this competition were all privileged people, a bunch of youngsters with luxurious clothes and accessories . Naturally, everyone’s furnace could be compared to a spiritual ware . For example, the furnaces of the representatives of the Elixir Association were made of gold, silver, and gems . They gave out a dazzling light while refining elixirs .

However, Jiang Chen’s furnace seemed quite average . He could have bought it from any shop . It was not tasteful at all .

If Jiang Chen had not subdued the little fiery burning man on the Elixir Emperor’s ship, he would have been laughed at hard .

Some new representatives from the Elixir Fire Union were also talking about Jiang Chen with scorn and laughing at him . They thought his furnace was hilarious .

Chen Xi was the only one who did not laugh . There were only two reasons that an alchemist used such a furnace . First, he could not afford a good furnace . Second, a good furnace was unnecessary .

However, it was not easy to believe it was the second category that Jiang Chen fell into . It needed some courage to believe so . After all, it was the Retaining Youth Elixir that they were refining . It was extremely difficult .



Cut to the chase, the fire had been on and the 20 alchemists had started to refine elixirs wholeheartedly .

People from all over the Three Middle Realms were waiting for the result patiently .

“He, he, the Title Battle will start soon . There are so many great events this year . ”

“Yeah, one after another . It’s nonstop . ”

“That Jiang Chen will have the Divine Martial Trial with Jiang Zhe in the Title Battle . He achieved a high level in elixir refinement and martial arts techniques . That’s really something . ”

“Whether he is something will depend on the results he gets . He will be something if he can get great results in both aspects . ”

“Yeah . Practicing elixir refinement and martial arts techniques at the same time also means being mediocre in both aspects . ”

It would take a long time to refine an elixir . Most of the audience were not alchemists . They were not interested in the details of refining an elixir either . So they started to gossip about all kinds of things .

About ten minutes later, the results were published on the square . However, it was not good news . Representatives from both sides were failing . The fire had been extinguished . Their furnaces were a mess . Soon, more than half of them had failed .

It’s just too difficult to refine a Retaining Youth Elixir, the audience thought to themselves .
