Chapter 148: Dragon Power Pill
Offstage.
"Xun'er, is Xiao Bai okay? Why do I feel like he's quarreling with those elders?" Xiao Yixian turned to look at Xiao Xun'er next to her and asked in a low voice, with a trace of worry flashing in her beautiful eyes. She didn't know what was said above, but she saw that the fire elder seemed to want to pull Xiao Bai away, but he didn't move. He seemed to say something a little anxious, which made the elders frown a little.
"It's okay! Xian'er, don't worry. You heard what the elder said just now! Brother Xiao Bai disagrees and says he wants to participate in the next competition!" Xiao Xun'er patted her head and comforted her with a smile.
Xiao Yixian heard the words and felt relieved. Feeling Xiao Xun'er's naughty movements, she stretched out her jade hand and gently pinched her pretty face. She said unhappily: "Xun'er, you treat me like a child!"
"Who told you to look so weak and worried just now, and you look so lovable, I couldn't help it!" Xiao Xun'er pulled her jade hand and smiled.
"You" Xiao Yixian smiled gently, her heart full of warmth. She knew that Xiao Xun'er, who was always cold, treated her as her own, so she was like this. Otherwise, this cute look would probably only be seen by Xiao Bai!
The movement of the two girls also made some male students nearby look at the two girls with smiling faces, one as pure as a green lotus, and the other as ethereal as a fairy, with slightly hot eyes watching this scene.
"Huh? Brother Xiao Bai seems to be calling us!" Xiao Xun'er noticed from the corner of her eye that Xiao Bai on the stage was looking at them. It seemed that he saw her and waved at them.
Although the two girls were puzzled, they still stood up and walked towards the competition stage.
"Come on, Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Yixian, this is Vice President Hu Qian and the elders of Jia Nan Academy!" After they came to his side, Xiao Bai took one of them in each hand and introduced them to them with a smile.
"Xiao Xun'er (Xiao Yixian), meet the Vice President, meet the elders!" Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yixian bowed.
"No need to be polite, classmates!" Hu Qian looked at the two smart and pretty girls, and couldn't help but sigh that Xiao Bai was really capable!
"Deputy Dean, elders, this is why I want to participate in the second round of the selection. I want to take them to the top five!" Xiao Bai did not hide anything and directly stated his purpose, which was allowed by the rules.
"Tsk tsk. Incredible! Xiao Yixian, I remember that you were a five-star Dou Zhe in the Magic Beast Forest before, right? It hasn't been long, and you have already reached the Great Dou Shi!" Elder Huo was a little surprised when he saw Xiao Yixian's cultivation.
"What. You said you met them a month ago, right? One month, upgraded from a five-star Dou Zhe to a Great Dou Shi?" The elders looked at the girl in the white dress with surprise in their eyes.
"Elder Huo, you are too kind! He helped me with all this, otherwise I wouldn't have broken through so quickly!" Xiao Yixian smiled and looked at Xiao Bai with a very gentle look.
This is what Xiao Bai told her. If anyone else asks about cultivation, just push it all onto him and he will solve it!
"Hehe. My Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yixian are talented. How can that be wrong?" Xiao Bai looked at the eyes of the elders and used a reason that no one could find to stop the elders from opening their mouths.
".!" A group of elders looked at the proud and somewhat shameless expression of the young man in black and were speechless for a while.
Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yixian looked at the expressions of the elders, their mouths slightly curved, and a hint of intoxicating smile flashed in their beautiful eyes when they looked at Xiao Bai. They had never seen him like this before, as if he was showing off to others!
"Okay!" Hu Qian smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Since they are all Great Dou Shi, let's arrange them in the top five! Anyway, both of them have the strength to enter the top 20 or even top 10, and they will definitely enter the inner courtyard. Besides, with this kid in the second round, even if all the students participating in the competition this year are added together, they are still not his opponent. Let's not do those nonsense. What do you think?"
"We have no objection!" The elders shook their heads. They thought that the people Xiao Bai was talking about were Dou Zhe or low-level Dou Shi, the kind that couldn't even make it into the top 50 in the selection. In that case, it would be a bit difficult to deal with, but now knowing the true cultivation level of the two girls, they are relieved immediately. Everything is still within the rules, and it's just that the process has been waived!
"Okay, it's settled!" After Hu Qian resolved the matter in a few words, he waved to the referee's seat, told a referee who came over that the top three had been decided, then turned to everyone and said, "If you have anything to say, go to the stands and talk. Don't waste the game time here!"
Xiao Bai wanted to leave, but Elder Huo was staring at him and pulled him to the stands. Xiao Bai was a little helpless, so he had to take Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yixian with everyone to the stands.
In the Yellow Class 2, after seeing Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yixian being called over by Xiao Bai, Teacher Ruolin noticed some emotions in Xiao Yu's eyes, sighed secretly, and said softly:
"Yu'er, don't think about it, you can't control him!"
Xiao Yu's face flushed slightly, and then she adjusted her mood and smiled faintly: "What is Teacher Ruolin thinking?"
Teacher Ruolin has been with her day and night, how could she not understand this disciple, as if talking to herself, she whispered: "When you are young, if you meet someone who is too outstanding, it's okay if there is a result. If there is no result, don't get too involved, otherwise it will affect your future life!"
Xiao Yu heard this, a trace of bitterness appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she whispered in a daze: "Get too involved? That also requires that opportunity. Teacher Ruolin, you don't know that guy from childhood to adulthood, how to say it?"
"Although his parents died early, he has been mature, independent, handsome and talented since he was young. Girls of the same age in the Xiao family have all had a crush on him, but that guy seems to have only recognized Xiao Xun'er. He always has only one attitude towards anyone else, gentle but distant!"
"Originally everyone thought that he would only treat Xiao Xun'er like this in his life, but it was not until today that I found out that it was not the case at all. His attitude towards Xiao Yixian is different from that towards us!"
Teacher Ruolin was stunned. When she was at the Xiao family, she only inquired about Xiao Bai's cultivation situation and really didn't pay attention to other things. Now, after listening to Xiao Yu's words, she actually appreciated his attitude a little.
Although they have not been together for a long time, he has seen the performance of Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yixian. He is very good to the girls he likes, but he will never provoke other girls if he does not intend to take responsibility!
Looking at Xiao Yu, who looked a little depressed, Teacher Ruolin didn't know what to say for a while, so she had to pat her shoulder as if to comfort her.
On the central stand.
Hu Qian brought a group of people back here, and looked at the bored red-dressed girl not far away, paying attention to her secretly.
When she saw everyone coming back, she glanced around, and suddenly her narrow peach blossom eyes lit up, and she seemed to be ready to move.
This made Hu Qian happy. It seemed that his granddaughter was not the kind of person he imagined. It was just that the young men who passed by in the past were not in her eyes. This made her feel very relieved!
Thinking of this, he followed his granddaughter's gaze, and after a look of surprise, his old face suddenly turned black!
The granddaughter's eyes were not looking at Xiao Bai, but at the two pretty girls!
Hu Qian felt that he was too happy just now. He knew that there was something wrong with this granddaughter!
At this time, he hoped that the eager eyes of this little witch were looking at Xiao Bai, not the two girls!
"Little witch, stand up if you want to stand, sit down if you want to sit. How can you be so unruly in public?" Hu Qian blew his beard and glared. At this time, no matter how he looked at this granddaughter, he was dissatisfied!
Xiao Bai looked up and saw a girl in a red dress, lazily leaning against a vertical iron railing with her arms around her chest. Her enchanting curves were quite large and extremely attractive.
"Tsk!" The girl in red curled her lips. If it were just her and Hu Qian, she wouldn't be afraid of the old man! But today all the elders were here, so she gave him some face. After leaving the railing, she went directly to Xiao Xun'er and the other girl who were whispering.
"Hello, ladies! My name is Hu Jia, and I'm the granddaughter of the old man who was blowing his beard just now!" The girl in red, Hu Jia, greeted the two girls with a smile on her face.
The corners of Xiao Bai and Hu Qian's eyes twitched at the same time. Hu Qian's face was a little gloomy, but Xiao Bai's face was full of weirdness. Someone was actually blatantly trying to steal his girl!
"Xiao Bai, come on, sit next to me, let's talk!" Elder Huo took Xiao Bai to sit on two empty chairs, and said with a smile: "How much do you know about alchemists?"
"Well, let's put it this way! I have also studied a little bit about alchemy!" Xiao Bai glanced at the elders who were paying attention to this place, and said hesitantly.
"There are still basics, haha. Good! It seems that you also like this profession!" Elder Huo was a little surprised, and then very happy.
Alchemists are not just talented, but also interested in this profession. Learning alchemy is very time-consuming. With Xiao Bai's talent for cultivation, he was a little worried that he was only interested in cultivation and felt that learning alchemy was too much of a waste of time for cultivation. Then no matter how good his talent for alchemy was, it would be useless!
"Don't worry, as long as you are interested, with your conditions, it is a very simple thing to get into the grade!" Seeing Xiao Bai's hesitant tone, Elder Huo thought that what he had learned before was not good enough, and comforted him softly.
Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yixian, who were talking to Hu Jia, looked strange when they heard this, but Xiao Bai sighed secretly. It's better to say it directly! Otherwise, it will offend people!
"Actually, I'm already an alchemist!"
"What? You've already entered the rank? Have you been to the Alchemist Union for assessment?" Elder Huo's eyes widened. When they investigated Xiao Bai, they knew that there was no Alchemist Union in Wutan City, and there was not even a first-rank alchemist. They thought there would be no chance to contact alchemists there, but they didn't expect that this guy was already an alchemist!
"As for the Alchemist Union, I haven't been there!" Xiao Bai shook his head. He couldn't go to the Alchemist Union to take the assessment just for a badge. To put it bluntly, that thing is just like a certificate, which doesn't have much practical significance.
The only useful point is that there will be a discount for collecting medicinal materials there, but for Xiao Bai, this is not very attractive. After all, the Jia Ma Empire does not have any high-end medicinal materials he needs.
"Then how can you be sure that you are an alchemist? Alchemy is not that simple. It is not that successful to just burn the medicinal materials into a pill with fire!" Elder Huo frowned. This kid has a calm face and does things in an orderly manner. He should not be so unreliable!
"It's not that simple. Just let Xiao Bai refine it on the spot. It doesn't take much time to refine a first-grade pill. Whether it is true or not, we will know it after practicing it!" The gray-clothed elder on the side was a little impatient with the old man Huo's nagging appearance, and directly came up with an idea that everyone nodded in agreement.
Xiao Bai was about to speak, but was interrupted by the gray-clothed elder's words. He looked at him and saw that it was the best supporting elder on the competition stage before. He sighed again in his heart, what a good man!
"This is indeed a solution. Just treat it as his entry test!" Elder Huo was not angry. He even thought this was a good idea. He turned to Xiao Bai and said, "How about it? Do you want to try it on the spot?"
"Sure, but forget about the first-grade pill. It's not difficult!" Xiao Bai paused, and in the eyes of many elders who looked suspicious, he said in a low voice, "Let's refine the fifth-grade pill!"
After speaking, the stands were suddenly silent. Everyone looked at Xiao Bai with incredible eyes, as if they were looking at a madman.
"What are you talking about? You don't have the slightest respect for the profession of alchemist!" Elder Huo was stunned at first, and then a strong anger surged from his heart. His originally fiery red face was now a little dark red because of anger. He looked at Xiao Bai with eyes as if he wanted to eat him alive.
I didn't expect Xiao Bai to be such an ignorant person. How much he liked him before, how angry he is now. At the age of 18, a fifth-grade alchemist? He didn't even dare to think about such a thing! How could this guy say that?
Before, he thought that he had finally met a good seedling with such outstanding soul power. He himself suffered from the disadvantage of not having strong soul power, so he had been stuck in the fifth grade for so many years and had not found an opportunity to break through the sixth grade. He thought of teaching him all his alchemy skills so that he could go further in the future, but he didn't expect this guy to be such a person!
"Xiao Bai, are you serious?" Hu Qian, who had been staring at Hu Jia gloomily, didn't care about his granddaughter at this time, and asked Xiao Bai seriously. If this was true, it would be a blessing for Jia Nan Academy.
"Yes! Xiao Bai, don't be too ambitious. We all believe that you can reach the fifth grade in the future, but now you should refine the first-grade elixir first!" Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, the gray-clothed elder secretly winked at Xiao Bai and let him step down.
Xiao Bai smiled gratefully at the gray-robed elder. The elixirs below the fourth grade he refined were a bit special. They had energy fluctuations that only fourth-grade elixirs had. After refining them, he had to explain it. He was too lazy to bother. If he hadn't run out of elixirs above the fourth grade, he would have taken them out directly!
"Whether it's true or not, we'll know once we refine it. What do you think, Vice President?" Xiao Bai smiled calmly.
"Okay! What do you need? Tell me and I'll prepare it for you!" Hu Qian saw that he looked calm and composed, and it didn't seem like he was pretending. He was slightly excited and couldn't help but stand up and make the decision.
"Medicinal materials, alchemy furnace, and alchemy recipe!"
"You don't have to go, I have them all!" Elder Huo saw that Xiao Bai seemed to be serious. Although he still had doubts in his heart, he was not as angry as before. Seeing Hu Qian was going to get something, he directly took out a black alchemy furnace from his ring, placed various medicinal materials on the table, and then handed a scroll to Xiao Bai, saying lightly:
"Fifth-grade elixir, Dragon Power Pill! Take a look for yourself! If you can refine it, these things will all be given to you, and I will apologize to you for what I said before!"
