Under such circumstances, how do you know he won’t lose?
Zhou Shu Qiu looked at Murong Bing incredulously.

It’s a gut feeling.
Murong Bing’s answer was direct and simple.
Zhou Shu Qiu was stunned speechless by Murong Bing’s answer again. She did not expect this answer from Murong Bing. In the past, Murong Bing would never have given such an answer since she was a very rational person. Murong Bing was not the kind of person to rely on something as abstract as intuition. It was only natural that she found Murong Bing’s answer surprising. She mused inwardly, ‘Perhaps, love does make people do extraordinary things…’ She felt that Murong Bing was acting so unlike herself due to Murong Bing having fallen in love with Duan Ling Tian.
Murong Bing’s eyes did not leave Duan Ling Tian after she answered Zhou Shu Qiu. She could vaguely sense his unwavering self-confidence. Strangely, the confidence he radiated put her at ease and caused her worries to vanish. It was as she had told Zhou Shu Qiu, she had a strong feeling that he would not lose.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian and Xiao Gang Yu, the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Blissful Sect, were fully focused on heating their cauldrons. They could only begin to refine the Overarching Heaven Pills once they had heated their cauldrons.
More and more people gathered to watch as both of them heated their cauldrons.
As time passed, Xiao Gang Yu finally finished heating his cauldron and prepared to move on to the next step. As the Blissful Sect’s Chief Celestial Alchemist, although it was not the fastest, his heating speed was still considered rather fast among the prominent Celestial Alchemists in the Six Southeastern Regions.
Naturally, Xiao Gang Yu’s heating speed was incomparable to Duan Ling Tian’s true heating speed. The reason Duan Ling Tian was taking his time to heat his cauldron was so he could preserve his strength. He planned to use ten hours or more to heat his cauldron.
The onlookers were impressed that Xiao Gang Yu took less than seven hours to heat his cauldron.

This is why he’s the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Blissful Sect. He finished heating his cauldron so quickly!


Put everything aside, I’m sure only a handful of prominent Celestial Alchemists in the Six Southeastern Regions can compete with his heating speed.


It’s really fast


He managed to heat a prominent Celestial Pill Cauldron in less than seven hours… That’s astonishing!

Xiao Gang Yu, naturally, heard the praises from the onlookers. He quickly glanced at Duan Ling Tian who was still diligently heating his cauldron with a hint of contempt in his eyes before he moved on to the next step of pill refinement. He grew even more confident of his victory as he thought to himself, ‘With his speed, I’m afraid I’ll have to wait for some time after I finish refining my Overarching Heaven Pills. Generally, the faster one can refine the pills, the higher the success rate would be. About a month ago, he only managed to refine three Overarching Heaven Pill. It’s mostly due to his incredibly slow heating speed!’
Xiao Gang Yu continued thinking to himself, ‘Moreover, after arriving in the Barren Land’s Alchemy City, my knowledge of alchemy has increased after a few discussions with some prominent Celestial Alchemists. I’m 80% certain I’ll be able to refine six Overarching Heaven Pills this time!

Over the past decades, the few times Xiao Gang Yu managed to refine six pills were mostly due to good luck. Most of the time, he could only refine five pills. However, this time, he was confident he would be able to refine six pills.
Time flew by quickly, and three hours passed in just a blink of an eye.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian lifted his arms and prepared to move on to the next step of refining the pills.
Upon seeing this, the crowd began to whisper among themselves again. Although Duan Ling Tian’s speed had improved compared to last month, nobody thought he would be able to win.

He has also finished heating his cauldron?


His heating speed is much faster compared to last month…


Indeed. I was there at that time. He took eleven hours to heat his cauldron previously, but now, it only took him ten hours.


Since his heating speed has improved, his success rate of refining pills should be higher as well, right?


Not necessarily. Moreover, even if his success rate improves, he only managed to refine three Overarching Heaven Pills previously. At most, he would be able to refine four pills this time.


I agree.

Duan Ling Tian, naturally, heard the whispers in his surroundings. He thought to himself, ‘This is the only way… To refine more than seven Overarching Heaven Pills, I have to hasten my heating speed. Although it’s still possible for me to refine seven pills if I limit my speed to eleven hours, I’ll only be taking unnecessary risks…’ He was not completely confident he could refine seven pills if he limited his heating time to eleven hours. However, if he hastened his speed slightly, he was 100% confident he would be able to refine more than seven pills.
At this moment, Ji Fan, the Arhat of the Blissful Sect, spoke up. He said mockingly,
Master Duan, I’ve long heard that you take a long time to heat your cauldron, but I didn’t expect you to be so slow. Can you even refine three Overarching Heaven Pills this time?

As soon as Ji Fan finished speaking, Situ Ming, one of the prominent Celestial Alchemists from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, shot Ji Fan a dirty look and said,
Master Duan is refining pills, it’s not right for you to disturb him, right?

Ji Fan was about to retort when he stopped by the piercing gaze of Zhong Shang, a Celestial Alchemist from the Alliance of Celestial Masters. Although Zhong Shang had superior alchemy skills, he was not a huge threat. After all, Zhong Shang was just a Celestial Alchemist with a mediocre cultivation base. With Li An, the Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect around, he was not worried about Zhong Shang. However, there was Zhong Qi who was next to Zhong Shang. Not only was Zhong Qi Zhong Shang’s twin brother, but Zhong Qi was also a powerful Ten Directions Celestial Duke. Zhong Qi was much stronger than Li An. For these reasons, he fell silent as soon as he saw Zhong Shang’s eyes on him.
The onlookers waited eagerly as time continued to pass.
At this moment, Xiao Gang Yu, who finished heating his cauldron three hours faster than Duan Ling Tian, was finally ready to refine the Overarching Heaven Pills! After he refined the pills, all there was left to do was to collect the pills.

Master Xiao from the Blissful Sect is almost ready to collect his pills. How many pills do you think he’ll be able to refine this time?


I’ve heard that he managed to refine six Overarching Heaven Pills before… Although that could be attributed to luck, he’s usually able to refine five pills.


If that’s the case, it’s certain that the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Master Duan is going to lose, right?


From the beginning, he has never stood a chance. Although his heating speed has improved, it still doesn’t change the fact that he only managed to refine three Overarching Heaven Pills a month ago!


There’s no doubt Master Xiao is going to win!

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Xiao Gang Yu finished with the last step and quickly moved to collect the pills.

I’m collecting the pills now!
Xiao Gang Yu raised his hand and smacked his cauldron.
There were many who were startled by Xiao Gang Yu’s sudden cry.
Following that, several streaks of light shot out from the cauldron one after another.

One.


Two.


Three.

While Xiao Gang Yu was collecting the pills, the onlookers counted every pill that shot out of the cauldron.

Six!

As the final Overarching Heaven Pill flew into Xiao Gang Yu’s palm, Xiao Gang Yu’s face split into a wide smile. Then, he passed the six Overarching Heaven Pills in his hand to Zhong Shang, the supreme Celestial Alchemist from the Alliance of Celestial Masters, for verification.

Master Xiao managed to refine six Overarching Heaven Pills,
Zhong Shang voiced out his confirmation.
Xiao Gang Yu instantly turned to Li An and said with a faint smile,
Old Ancestor, fortunately, I didn’t let you down today!


Well done, Master Xiao.
A smile appeared on Li An’s usually expressionless face. Even if Xiao Gang Yu only managed to refine five Overarching Heaven Pills today, he was still certain of Xiao Gang Yu’s victory. Now that Xiao Gang Yu managed to refine six Overarching Heaven Pills, he had no doubt that Xiao Gang Yu would win.
‘I’d like to see how many Overarching Heaven Pills you’ll be able to refine!’ Xiao Gang Yu was in high spirits after refining six Overarching Heaven Pills. A smug expression could be seen on his face as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.
Similarly, the onlookers had no doubt that Xiao Gang Yu would win. The result of this competition was too obvious.

Master Xiao managed to refine six pills… It’s quite clear what the outcome of this competition would be.
