Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1571: Chapter 1570: Inciting Public Outrage!

”The first layer of testing has concluded, Su Han scores one hundred, ranking first!”

Although everyone knew Su Han’s score, the shock over his achievement had considerably diminished.

Many were still muttering about what had just happened.

Even Yin Feng, the Second Grade Alchemist who announced the score, gave Su Han a cold look, losing his previous sense of admiration.

To anyone, having talent is certainly a good thing, but being too arrogant is not.

Su Han seemed oblivious to this, standing calmly, eyes slightly lowered, lost in thought.

”Overly arrogant people will surely meet a bad end...”

Nearby, King Zhou’s voice came, laced with intense jealousy.

Su Han glanced at him and smiled slightly, ”But superior to those who have no skill and pretend otherwise.”

”What did you say?!” King Zhou immediately turned his head.

In front, Lyu Qingyu also turned back, feeling that Su Han was insulting him too.

”I said... you are asking for death.” Su Han stared at King Zhou, maintaining his indifferent tone.

He could sense that King Zhou’s Cultivation Base was Sixth Grade Spirit Transformation Realm, comparable to Peak, about to break through to Seventh Grade Spirit Transformation.

Not to mention Sixth Grade, even Seventh Grade could be slain by Su Han!

This person had provoked Su Han several times, and despite his patience, he could not bear more of this nonsense.

”Next is the second layer of testing, see the herb and speak its effects!”

At this moment, Yin Feng’s voice came again.

”Hmph, just wait!”

King Zhou glared coldly at Su Han, saying, ”Though you have some Alchemy Dao talent, your mere Third-Grade Spirit Transformation Realm Cultivation Base is like an ant to Zhou!”

”You can try.” Su Han spoke lightly.

”Everyone prepare, next is the appearance of the first medicinal ingredient!”

As Yin Feng’s words fell, a gentle wave of his palm before the screen made it transform with a swoosh, revealing a medicinal ingredient.

”Nine-Leaf New Wood.”

As the ingredient appeared, Su Han immediately spoke, ”It bears nine leaves, never withers unless it dies, can be integrated into pill liquid, increasing pill success rate by five percent.”

”Correct, add 1 point!”

The Old Woman’s tone was not as amiable as before, and her face lacked a smile.

Next, the second medicinal ingredient appeared.

Seeing this ingredient, Lyu Qingyu promptly said, ”Yellow Heart Lotus, the leaf awakens and invigorates, the lotus throne can be swallowed directly, enhancing Cultivation Base, the lotus seed is most precious, allowing a formed pill to be re-refined!”

At these words, numerous eyes fell upon Lyu Qingyu.

This was the first time, except for King Zhou, that anyone had spoken before Su Han.

”Correct, add...”

”Heh...”

The Old Woman was about to speak, but Su Han chuckled and shook his head.

”Why are you laughing?” The Old Woman lightly frowned.

Lyu Qingyu also turned and said, ”Even a Third-Grade Alchemist confirmed my answer is correct, do you doubt it?”

”The Third-Grade Alchemist says you’re right, so you think you’re truly right?”

Su Han sneered, addressing Lyu Qingyu, ”You’re nothing but a frog at the bottom of a well, ignorant.”

”Damn it, must you cause me trouble?” Lyu Qingyu immediately flared up.

The Old Woman then looked at Su Han, somewhat dissatisfied, ”Tell us what’s wrong then?”

”This Yellow Heart Lotus, despite being a First Grade Medicinal Ingredient, its effects are comparable to Second Grade, even equivalent to Third Grade in some regards!”

”What?!”

Exclamations arose from the surroundings again.

”Hahahaha...”

Lyu Qingyu laughed heartily, ”Such a mere First Grade Medicinal Ingredient, calling it equal to Third Grade? Laughably absurd!”

Not only him, but many disdainful looks were cast toward Su Han, feeling he was pretending too much.

”Don’t believe it?”

Su Han didn’t even look at Lyu Qingyu, addressing the Old Woman, ”If you’ll test it with a Third-Grade Pill, you can verify my claim.”

The Old Woman furrowed her brow, giving orders to bring the Pill Furnace and pill over.

Apparently, even she didn’t believe Su Han, as this was simply a First Grade Yellow Heart Lotus; she had used it countless times in pill forging, familiar with its effects.

Soon, the Pill Furnace and pill were brought over, indeed a Third-Grade Pill of Lower-Class Quality, with an enticing aroma.

Upon seeing this, Su Han then spoke, ”Young Master Lyu mentioned correct aspects, yet also wrong. Correctly, the lotus leaf invigorates, the lotus seed allows re-refinement, but the most precious part of the Yellow Heart Lotus is not the lotus seed, but the lotus throne!”

”Nonsense!” Lyu Qingyu snorted.

Su Han immediately looked at him, ”Well, tell me how long the Yellow Heart Lotus takes to mature? How many years for the lotus throne, lotus seed, and to be completely harvested?”

”Yellow Heart Lotus matures in eight hundred years, forms the lotus throne in two thousand years, and every five hundred years, condenses lotus seeds. Am I correct?” Lyu Qingyu said.

”Wrong, wrong, all wrong, nonsense!”

Su Han stated flatly, ”Absolutely incorrect, total rubbish!”

”You!”

Lyu Qingyu seethed with anger, ”Alright, enlighten us!”

”The Yellow Heart Lotus first forms the lotus seed, not the lotus throne!” Su Han remarked.

”Impossible!”

”How could that be? The lotus throne is like a root, growing from the bottom upwards, how could it first form the lotus seed?”

”I once saw an immature Yellow Heart Lotus, lacking lotus seeds, only a lotus throne.”

Voices of dissent filled the surroundings, as Su Han seemed to invite collective ire.

Already many were jealous of Su Han, now seizing this chance to attack simultaneously.

”Su Han, cease your nonsense here!”

”Indeed, the Alchemical Lineage detests erroneous paths, your intentions are terribly wicked!”

Amidst these remarks, Su Han’s lips curled into an audacious smile.

”You, are unworthy of being Pill Masters!”

”A true Pill Master advances wholeheartedly, listens to others, extracts what works, this is the Grand Dao!”

”But you cling desperately to your beliefs, envy consumes you, able to forego detours but under envy, stray further.”

”No wonder you’re only First Grade Alchemists, with such a State of Mind, Second Grade might be attainable, but Third Grade, forget it!”
