Capítulo 1628: Chapter 87: Hidden Agendas
As the pill energy appeared, the final result was still pending verification.
So whether they were disheartened or delighted, everyone was tense, waiting for the final results to be revealed.
Amidst everyone’s anticipation, the judge reached into the pill furnace to retrieve the elixir.
After feeling around for a while, he suddenly touched an extremely smooth elixir, and was startled.
The surrounding judges, curious about his expression, asked, “How is it? Is there an elixir?”
“Yes! Yes!”
The judge responsible for inspecting Lin Yifan was more excited than anyone, as it was the first time he had seen a pill furnace without any pill energy produce an elixir.
“Really? Quickly, show it to us!”
The surrounding judges couldn’t wait to see the elixir.
The judge who found the elixir wasted no time and immediately took out the elixir to show it to everyone.
Seeing the judge holding this smooth elixir with a trace of red-blue pill energy, the whole audience was astonished.
This was an almost perfect First Realm Fifth Grade Immortal Elixir, better than the one made by the Third Prince of Mujian Country; thus the victor and the loser were already clear.
The Third Prince of Mujian Country smiled bitterly. To be honest, he didn’t expect to lose, but with such a result, he had no reason to be dissatisfied.
Moreover, Lin Yifan was indeed very powerful, the most talented and promising alchemy master he had ever seen in his life, far beyond comparison with himself.
Princess Qingyan admired him immensely; in front of Lin Yifan, she wasn’t outstanding in any way. Yet, such an excellent person was a lecher, something she absolutely could not accept.
No matter what, she must defend her purity, make Lin Yifan apologize, and pay the price.
Yao Shi’an had nothing to say, defeat is defeat, no argument would change that.
Meanwhile, Yun Qing Immortal, Princess Jianping, and their supporters found no more arguments to counter with.
Lin Yifan was indeed an alchemical genius, surpassing ordinary understanding.
Konghui Immortal, Princess Xinting, and their supporters were filled with relief, surprise, and excitement.
Lin Yifan did not disappoint, winning the alchemy competition, this was a source of pride for them all, a result they were delighted to see.
Princess Xinting found herself increasingly fond of Lin Yifan.
On the other hand, the students of the highest academy in Mujian Country were both disheartened and full of admiration.
Lin Yifan, with his advanced alchemy skills, was a role model for the younger generation. Who said they couldn’t improve anymore? He was a prime example.
The dean of the highest academy in Mujian Country had long guessed the result, but upon seeing the elixir, he felt a different kind of oppression, an undeniable and irrefutable feeling. In simple terms, others were just stronger than you, that’s the idea.
All the students of the academies were filled with emotion, voicing different opinions.
“So alchemy is his strong suit, truly terrifying.”
“He is only in the Superior Immortal First Realm yet refined an elixir difficult for a Superior Immortal Fifth Realm cultivator to create, truly admirable.”
“I’m very curious how he refined this First Realm Fifth Grade Immortal Elixir.”
“This refining method, truly unheard and unseen.”
…
After thorough multiple examinations, all the judges reached a conclusion: Lin Yifan’s elixir was the new Pill King of the event, meaning Lin Yifan won the championship of this Six Academy Alchemy Competition.
It was shocking news for everyone, once again witnessing Lin Yifan’s strength.
“Amazing! Another crown, it seems he is after the Female Earth Bead.”
“I’m really curious whether he is from Yuncui Kingdom or not; if not, Yuncui Kingdom would be at a loss too.”
“Yuncui Kingdom generally has no men, all men are behind the scenes and hold lower status. But such a genius should match a princess of Yuncui Kingdom.”
“I heard he is quite close to the Seventh Princess of Yuncui Kingdom and belongs to her, seems like they will end up together.”
“What a pity for such a talent to be buried in Yuncui Kingdom.”
“I think so too.”
“However, we can’t rule out that he hid behind the women of Yuncui Kingdom to escape persecution.”
“Doesn’t such a genius have a strong background? Who would believe otherwise?”
“Yet he is being hunted by Princess Qingyan of Tianze Country, that’s a fact.”
“Really getting more curious about his identity and purpose.”
…
Lin Yifan became the subject of everyone’s gossip, just because his relationships were too complex, being at odds with Princess Qingyan of Tianze Country, and involved with the Seventh Princess of Yuncui Kingdom.
Upon hearing this gossip, Princess Qingyan suddenly hated Lin Yifan. He saw her body and didn’t take responsibility, yet harmed other girls, worse than a beast.
After the competition, she must expose all of Lin Yifan’s scandals, letting everyone see his true nature.
Lin Yifan remained calm throughout.
His purpose was simple, it was the Female Earth Bead, anything about being a prince consort, any grudges with the princess of Tianze Country had nothing to do with him.
After the alchemy competition, the Third Prince of Mujian Country walked straight to Lin Yifan and said: “You are the strongest opponent I have ever met, if interested in the future, come to Mujian Country, let’s spar a bit more.”
Lin Yifan thought, having more friends means more help, so he responded: “If there’s a chance, I’ll certainly go, by then, don’t neglect your brother.”
“Rest assured, I won’t neglect you.”
After chatting, they parted ways, returning to their own places.
The array competition was scheduled for the next day, so after leaving the stage, Lin Yifan was embraced by the students of Tiancui Academy.
Lin Yifan was their hero, turning the tide, winning two consecutive competitions, bringing great honor to Tiancui Academy.
In the future, Tiancui Academy can stand tall before the other Five Academy students.
Receiving star-like “treatment” again, Lin Yifan remained surprised and flustered. But it was inevitable, given his impressive record.
Lin Yifan hoped Princess Xinting could resolve the situation, and upon receiving his signal, Princess Xinting indeed came.
Under her persuasion and intimidation, the senior brothers and sisters reluctantly let Lin Yifan go.
Lin Yifan quickly followed Princess Xinting away, but many still trailed them.
Seeing this, Yao Shi’an was not just trembling with anger, he was nearly exploding with fury.
Princess Xinting openly led Lin Yifan away in front of him, disregarding his feelings entirely. What’s the use of protecting such a woman?
While Princess Qingyan had complex emotions, particularly uncertain where this hatred in her heart came from.
On the other side, Princess Jianping realized for the first time how dangerously close she was, removing Lin Yifan was indeed urgent.
