Chapter 511: Loose Everything

Discussions were going on among the disciples of various pavilions, everyone wanted to know why these two were standing near the arena when Shen Tianji appeared above the arena, and silence ran through the crowd. They all looked at him.

"Everyone, we are about to begin.." Shen Tianji said and looked towards Lin Feng and Fan Shengyuan, "But first, there is one specific battle which will take place, it is between my disciple Fan Shengyuan and Sword Pavilion’s new disciple Lin Feng..."

Hearing that perked everyone’s ears. This was quite unusual since why would an alchemist fight a sword user?

Shen Tianji didn’t let them guess any longer, "This will be an Alchemy Battle, also Lin Feng is an alchemist, so it isn’t unfair towards him. This is a challenge, if he wins, then he can get benefits from Alchemy Pavilion while not being part of the pavilion itself.."

This new information shocked the disciples slightly, they weren’t expecting an alchemist to be part of Sword Pavilion.

Even Zhe Peng frowned slightly, he wasn’t expecting Lin Feng to be an alchemist, not to mention the fact that Shen Tianji agreed to a challenge like this means that Lin Feng wasn’t any ordinary alchemist. This makes things quite difficult for him.

"Let the battle begin, Lin Feng, Fan Shengyuan, come on the arena.."

While saying that, Shen Tianji waved his hand and two cauldrons along with two tables with multiple spirit herbs appeared on the side of the arena.

"You can only use these cauldrons and the herbs present here to create the pill, remember this, the moment you start creating the pill, the battle will begin, but you cannot attack your opponent unless you have completed your pill and waited for one minute. After that, you are free to attack even if your opponent has not finished his refinement."

Lin Feng looked at the spirit herbs while climbing the stairs. Most of them were those which could push the boundaries of strength by influencing blood qi and Immortal qi, perfect for an alchemy battle.

After arriving at the top of the arena, he went towards one of the tables and knocked on the cauldron to test its integrity. It was early Initiation Grade.

"Alright, I hope you two are ready, if not, then you have thirty breaths of time to think about the pill you are going to refine from these herbs, after that I will start the battle.." Shen Tianji said and went back to his original seat among the head elders.

Fan Shengyuan began observing the spirit herbs while Lin Feng didn’t care much about it, if it really was just about winning, he could win without even refining a pill, but since he had to keep the pretense, he would just create a simple pill and win in a way that others wouldn’t think too much about it.

Lin Feng’s nonchalant expression made Qin Ruoxuan, who had truly gone against the odds and wagered on him, look at Cui Shuyin with a questioning expression. "Elder Cui, don’t tell me that following you here today was equivalent to losing everything... Why is he so unbothered? Did he come here already prepared to lose"

Cui Shuyin’s lips twitched in annoyance. "Who told you to wager on him? Since you were foolish enough to do so, don’t complain about it now..."

Cui Shuyin was really annoyed right now, against all the odds Qin Ruoxuan had gone and chosen Lin Feng like her. This means if Lin Feng wins, which she was certain of, then she had to split the winnings in two now. Dammit, she should have just excluded her from the start, as she had a feeling something like this would happen.

"Cough, Sis Cui, don’t forget we have taken an oath to die and live together—"

"Why don’t I remember such a thing.." Cui Shuyin was speechless, "Stop spouting nonsense like Elder Yin.."

"Why am I getting dragged into this?" Yin Qianshui smiled charmingly, "Although, I won’t mind as long as you—"

"Shut up.."

Both Qin Ruoxuan and Cui Shuyin spoke simultaneously. They knew what nonsense would come out of her mouth.

The other men around them were acting oblivious, but their ears were quite perked at the last sentence.

Shen Tianji waved his hand since thirty breaths had passed, "Let the battle begin.."

His voice echoed through the whole arena, and immediately Fan Shengyuan began picking up the herbs for his required pill.

Lin Feng didn’t waste time either, but he picked the herbs very slowly, as if he was admiring every single herb. He wasn’t in a hurry at all.

Seeing that, Qin Ruoxuan felt a little helpless inwardly. It seemed she really had to bid farewell to five million high-grade spirit stones along with her two treasures.

Shen Tianji frowned inwardly too, he could see that the herbs Lin Feng picked were only going to create a very simple blood qi pill, it would be nowhere near the pill Fan Shengyuan was aiming for. He couldn’t help but think if Lin Feng really was standing there with the mindset to lose. Did Cui Shuyin really put her bet on him just because he was from Sword Pavilion and choosing Fan Shengyuan would be embarrassing for her?

Other spectators didn’t know what pill Lin Feng was aiming for, but the way he was picking the herbs made them think that he was already a lost cause.

"Is he really an alchemist?"

"Maybe an alchemist who didn’t have much knowledge about the spirit herbs, that’s why he is taking his time.."

"This is an alchemy battle, he cannot waste time or else he might not be able to refine his pill before Fan Shengyuan attacks.."

"I don’t know why you all are even hopeful about this Lin Feng, Fan Shengyuan is one of the most talented alchemists of the Alchemy Pavilion, there is no way this newbie can win against him.."

"I am more amazed that he was even allowed to challenge Fan Shengyuan to an alchemy battle.."

"Forget it, let’s just watch, Fan Shengyuan is ready to refine his pill.."
