Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl - Chapter 36

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Initially, Ao Yan wanted to go up and take down Jiang Xiaobai, but upon seeing this scene, she took a deep breath and decided to forget about it.

No matter what, the competition had already begun, so she could not interrupt it. Otherwise, she would really not give Five Lotus Mountain face.

It was not that Ao Yan did not trust Jiang Xiaobai, but she was not confident in her heart.

Although Jiang Xiaobai could refine the Cleansing Pill, being able to refine this kind of special pill did not represent one’s ability to refine pills!

Furthermore, even an existence like Dragon Valley did not want to make enemies with Five Lotus Mountain, so Ao Yan could only look at Jiang Xiaobai worriedly before venting her anger on Ao Cheng.

Ao Cheng screamed repeatedly, causing the people around him to move further away from him.

Third Elder stood at the side and narrowed his eyes. He looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a complicated expression.

Less than half a month ago, this fellow was still a mortal who was nothing…

On the high platform, the materials were ready. Just as it was about to start, the system’s voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Xiaobai’s mind.

[Congratulations, Host, for activating the choices.]

[Choice 1: Win the competition. Reward: A wisp of Merit.]

[Choice 2: Lose the competition. Reward: A connate numinous treasure fragment.]

These two rewards were quite tempting.

It was needless to say that Merit could condense a Golden Body of Merit. Even a saint would want this item, and connate numinous treasures were rare treasures.

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Xiaobai finally chose the first one.

He was not here to set off Kong Yuhuai, but to use this fellow to show off his might!

“The alchemy competition begins now!”

With Elder Jiang’s voice, the competition officially began.

Immediately, the two began to concoct pills.

Kong Yuhuai burned a pale blue flame. It was obvious that the grade of the flame was not low. This thing was also of considerable help in alchemy.

On the other hand, Jiang Xiaobai’s side was using the most ordinary fire control technique.

When the white flames rose, the martial arts practice field burst into loud laughter.

“Ahaha, he has the guts to challenge His Highness the Holy Son?”

“The lowest level of fire control. This thing is used to concoct pills? I’m afraid that even the pill furnace hasn’t warmed up yet when His Highness the Holy Son has already successfully refined pills.”

“It’s simply embarrassing. I really don’t know what’s going on in that guy’s head.”

Such mocking voices continued. After all, the pale flame was really surprising.

Ao Yan, who was in the crowd, flushed red. She also felt a wave of embarrassment.

There was no comparison between the two people on the stage.

“This guy seems to be really confident?” Ao Yan was surprised.

She had heard of Kong Yuhuai and knew that he was the most outstanding young man in Five Lotus Mountain. His alchemy ability was even comparable to some of the Elders, who were old Daoists!

It was not good for Jiang Xiaobai to compete with him like this.

However, Ao Yan did not say anything because she was worried. She was familiar with Jiang Xiaobai. This person probably would not do something that he was not confident about.

However, this was probably all caused by Ao Cheng.

She immediately looked at Ao Cheng with a cold face. “Just you wait and see, I’ll teach you a lesson!”

She casually slapped the back of Ao Cheng’s head.

Ao Cheng hugged his head and looked aggrieved. He didn’t dare to say anything, but he looked at Jiang Xiaobai with excitement in his eyes.

He had a feeling that even if Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t win, he wouldn’t be inferior to him.

This feeling was very strange, and he couldn’t explain it clearly.

At this moment, the preparations on the stage were already done. Kong Yuhuai had already begun to throw spirit herbs into the pill furnace according to the steps. His speed and technique were quite steady.

All the people from Five Lotus Mountain below the stage were staring at his movements, wanting to learn something from them.

As for Five Lotus Mountain Elders who were the judges, they kept nodding their heads, praising Kong Yuhuai’s alchemy skills endlessly.

In comparison, Jiang Xiaobai’s movements looked exceptionally simple. As soon as the match began, he immediately threw all the spirit herbs into the pill furnace. His expression was very calm, and he didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with his actions at all.

“Is this fellow really an alchemist?”

“Is there anyone who can refine pills like this? Throwing all the spirit herbs into the pill furnace? It’s impossible to refine pills like this.”

“Sigh, brainless thing. There’s no suspense at all in this competition. His Highness the Holy Son will definitely win.”

Everyone below the stage was mocking Jiang Xiaobai. They didn’t want to continue watching with just a glance. There was no need for this at all.

If they had the spare time, they might as well watch His Highness the Holy Son concoct pills.

Time passed by minute by minute. The atmosphere below the stage was quite relaxed. Everyone believed that Kong Yu Huai would definitely win this round.

Ten minutes passed, and the two people on the stage opened their pill furnaces almost at the same time.

At this moment, a strong medicinal fragrance was emitted.

“The pill has been formed. Please verify it, Elders!”

There were even special staff members taking out the pills in the pill furnace. Jiang Xiaobai’s disciple, who was in charge of taking out the pills, had a look of disdain on his face. He had not even approached the pill furnace when he seemed to have already seen the scene of the pill furnace being filled with medicinal dregs.

However, what surprised him was that Jiang Xiaobai had actually refined pills?

“You…”

That person was shocked. Then, he took out the pill in a daze. Seeing this scene, everyone below the stage was also stunned.

He could even refine a pill like this?

The two people on the stage had a tacit understanding. They completely ignored the voices of the outsiders. Instead, they stood calmly on the spot and waited for the first round to be concluded.

In the first round, they refined a Foundation Establishment Pill.

The first one to be verified was the pill that Jiang Xiaobai had refined.

“Not bad. The pill is full and the medicinal strength is pure. It has almost retained 90% of the medicinal efficacy. Unfortunately, it is still a little lacking. There are some small flaws.”

“Moreover, the refining speed is not bad. It is also very fast. This refining method is also quite creative. It should have been developed by oneself, right?”

After seeing Jiang Xiaobai’s Foundation Establishment Pill, Elder Jiang exclaimed in shock as well. It was impossible for an alchemist who had not been immersed in the path of alchemy for a hundred years to condense such pure medicinal strength.

Hearing such an evaluation, everyone below the stage was dumbfounded.

“Is there a mistake? His method was so crude that it could explode! How can he form a pill like this?”

“It’s one thing for him to form a pill, but he actually has nearly 90% of the medicinal efficacy?”

Many people had doubtful looks on their faces. They did not believe it at all. Moreover, this kind of pill was almost of a very high standard. They were all a little worried about the Holy Son.

After that, Elder Jiang took Kong Yuhuai’s Foundation Establishment Pill and immediately smiled.

“The Holy Son’s alchemy skills have improved quite a bit. 95% of the medicinal efficacy is already comparable to the Sect Master’s style back then. His future achievements are immeasurable!” Elder Jiang said from the bottom of his heart.

Upon hearing this, Kong Yuhuai smiled elegantly and said, “I’m sorry, Brother Jiang. I’m slightly better.”

“No worries. Just don’t go easy on me from now on,” Jiang Xiaobai said with a chuckle. He didn’t care that he had lost one round.

At this moment, everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Xu Nianliang calmed himself down and then looked at Ao Cheng proudly. “How was it? I told you that His Highness the Holy Son would definitely win.”

“Tsk, it’s only the first round.” Ao Cheng snorted coldly, but his eyes were fixed on the stage.

“Alright, the second round of the competition will begin. The Essence-Enhancing Pill!”

The winner of the first round had been decided. At this time, Elder Jiang did not stop and directly announced the start of the next round..
