    Rika and the ck Sword Lord’s confidence had received lethal blows from the emergence of all these dark horses.


    It would be alright if there were just one dark horse as they could still secure spots in the top five for themselves.


    However, not only was Xu Xian a dark horse, even An Lin, Julia, and Fanny were dark horses! There were four dark horses who had dominated almost the entire top five berths! How the f*ck did this make any sense?


    For renowned pill refinement prodigies to fall out of the top five were simply too much for them to bear.


    Rika and the ck Sword Lord stood off to the side with disconste expression.


    Grey finally recovered a bit of confidence upon seeing his cousin, Julia, secure a spot in the top five, but he didn’t dare to flex in front of An Lin ever again.


    A blush appeared on his face upon recalling how he had flexed and boasted to such a supremely talented pill refinement prodigy.


    Meimei’s eyes were bright with excitement. Even her voice was a bit more passionate upon seeing so many prodigies pop up. “Congrattions, An Lin, Xu Xian, Fanny, Ban Yue, and Julia! You will be granted entry into the finalpetition and will each receive a sixth-grade immortal pill coupon provided by the Pill Tower.


    “The person who bes the final champion will receive the intermediate rank immortal tool, the Nine Spirit Cauldron! Now then, let the finalpetition begin!”


    Her red dress fluttered, and she stepped through the air in her high heels. An intricatepetition tform appeared at the center of the dao za, upon which were five positions for each of the fivepetitors.


    The fivepetitors made their way toward thepetition tform, and they became the most eye-catching beings on the entire dao tform.


    Rika and the ck Sword Lord looked up at the five dazzlingpetitors on thepetition tform and disappointment coupled with envy swept through their hearts.


    Never would they have thought that they wouldn’t even have the right to stand on the finalpetition tform.


    An Lin was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of spectators in all shapes and sizes and even though he had experienced a lot of big asions during his cultivation career, this was still a little unsettling to him.


    Being scrutinized by hundreds of thousands of monsters and fiendish demons was apletely different experience from being scrutinized by hundreds of thousands of humans. Especially when all those monsters and fiendish demons were staring at him with scorching admiration in their eyes, this made him not only quite proud, but it also made him quite excited.


    “The finalpetition is quite simple. Whoever refines the highest grade pill wins, and among pills of the same grade, the higher quality one wins!


    “Furthermore, everyone has to use their own materials!”


    Meimei winked seductively at all thepetitors.


    All thepetitors remained expressionless. They were clearly ready for this little obstacle the Pill Tower was throwing at them.


    After reaching this level, all pill refinement masters had a bunch of materials in their storage rings.


    An Lin looked at the other threepetitors, and he could tell that they were all extremely talented just from their cultivation bases. Julia was at the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage, Ban Yue was at the Soul Formation Initial Stage, and Fanny was even more impressive; she was at the Soul Formation Final Stage.


    One had to realize that all of them were under thirty years of age.


    Even in The United University of Cultivation, they would be among the most powerful students in the entire school.


    An Lin took a few deep breaths to calm his nerves. There was still a bit of pressure on him, mainly because he had no idea what Fanny would be capable of after unleashing her full power…


    At the top level of the Pill Tower, a golden figure ced its hands on the railings and looked down over the entire Pill City. All types of vibrant lights shed, giving the city the appearance of a dazzling gemstone.


    The golden figure looked down at this bustling city, which appeared as if it would never sleep, with a smile on its face. “An Lin of the Four Nine Immortal Sect? A high and mighty Sect Leader ispeting in apetition between the younger generation? Isn’t that bullying?


    “It would be fine if you were bullying someone else, but you’re trying to bully my daughter…”


    On the dao za.


    Meimei’s voice sounded again.


    “The time limit for the finalpetition is four hours. Within this time period, you may start again if you fail in your pill refinement. Let the finalpetition begin!”


    The finalpetitionmenced.


    Julia spat out a plume of frosty cold mes.


    Blue dragon mes burned in her pill cauldron. These mes were remarkably stable, thereby preventing the essence within the materials from being incinerated under excessive heat.


    It was quite a surprise for An Lin that a dragon with such an explosive temper would have mes like this.


    Grey was starting to get a little cocky again. “Hmph! An Lin, your Divine mes may be powerful, but my cousin’s Dark Snow mes are not inferior to your Divine mes!”


    An Linpletely ignored Grey.


    At this moment, Ban Yue also sprang into action. A green moon appeared from behind her while mes imbued with the power of the moon fell into her pill refinement cauldron. This was also a very special type of mes that were imbued with the perfected power of true yin.


    All those that had progressed into the finalpetition were clearly all forces to be reckoned with.


    Fanny paused momentarily before turning a taunting re in An Lin’s direction as she made a peculiar hand seal.


    Boom!


    Golden crystalline mes appeared in the air while burning with scintiting light.


    These mes were extremely explosive, and it crackled as if it consisted of countless crystals ttering together. At the same time, the mighty power of pure yang burst forth from the mes.


    Upon seeing this, all the spectators faltered initially before raucous cheering erupted among them.


    The mes Fanny disyed before everyone was also an extremely powerful Divine me!


    This was a dark horse too! A dark horse strong enough topete with An Lin and Xu Xian for the championship title!


    “As expected of the Pill Sage’s daughter. She’s so young, but she already has all the makings of a first-rate pill refinement master. She is the lucky star of the Pill Tower and the entire Pill City!”


    “She will surely grow to be an exceptional pill refinement master in the future.”


    Everyone discussed among themselves, and the atmosphere became extremely enthusiastic.


    Aspetitors, Julia and Ban Yue were instantly struck by a sense of mountainous pressure.


    Rika and the ck Sword Lord looked at each other to discover the same bitter expression mirrored on each other’s faces.


    They had thought that they stood at the pinnacle of the younger generation of pill refinement masters, only to find that there were beings from the same generation looking down on them from a higher level.


    Fanny turned to An Lin and Xu Xian with an arrogant smirk. “You’re not the only ones with Divine mes. My Divine me is known as the Golden Soul Crystal me, and it can imbue pills with greater intelligence! It is one of the Divine mes most suitable for pill refinement.”


    An Lin and Xu Xian looked silently at Fanny without even a hint of surprise on their faces. Instead, there was only an inexplicable tranquility in their eyes.


    Fanny was a little displeased. “What? You’re looking down on my Divine mes? My Divine mes are more suited to pill refinement than yours…”


    An Lin immediately waved his hands. “It’s not like that, you’re misunderstanding us. We’re not looking down on your Divine mes. Your Divine mes are indeed very powerful among all the Divine mes…”


    Xu Xian finished his sentence. “However… I have a holy me.”


    In that instant, everyone fell deathly silent.


    Fanny was dumbstruck. “Hah?”


    Xu Xian waved a hand, and a ball of white mes appeared in the air.


    This was a power imbued with the power of pure yang, and all living beings that cast their eyes upon it were struck by a sense of inferiority.


    Everyone’s eyes, including Fanny’s, were all focused intently on that ball of mes.


    So beautiful, so holy…


    Was this a Divine me? No! This was a higher level of mes!


    Everyone suddenly realized something at this moment, and some of them were even shaking from excitement. After all, they were witnessing legendary mes!


    “My God, why am I seeing? Those are… Those are holy mes!”


    “Are those holy mes? To think I would be able to see a holy me during my lifetime. I can die with no regrets now…”


    Fanny stared with incredulity at the mes in Xu Xian’s hand as her confidence sustained a heavy blow. “How… How could you possess such mes…”


    “Er, sorry to interrupt, but I can actually use holy mes as well.”


    A voice suddenly sounded at this moment.


    Fanny turned toward An Lin, the man who had made a bet with her.


    An extremely pure ball of mes appeared before the man, from which emanated boundless holy might. This was a holy me too!


    Fanny’s body shuddered as she stood rooted to the spot.


    She opened her mouth, but she was unable to utter a single syble…


    “Fake… It must be fake!”


    It was one thing for one person to possess a holy me, but both of them did?


    This… Wasn’t this bullying?!
