As expected, in just three days, rumors about the Holy Fire of the Illuminati Religion being the Hell Fire were centered on Dan City and radiated to every corner of the entire continent at the speed of light.
After Yun Tai's words, the reputation of the Guangming Sect has been damaged to a certain extent, which has obviously become an inevitable fact. So all they can do is try their best to minimize the negative impact and losses.
It is said that on the night after the preliminary round, the Guangming Sect submitted a letter of protest to the Pharmacist Guild in Dan City. At the same time, they also made righteous criticisms of Yu Lanfang's Yun Tai.
To everyone's surprise, Yu Lanfang didn't react at all. Of course, judging from Yulan's consistently tough attitude towards the Illuminati, no one would think that their move was a sign of weakness towards the Illuminati. It was more likely to be interpreted as a disregard for the Illuminati. After all, this battle is already being fought, who cares about a few indifferent criticisms. In this world where the strong is respected, whoever has the strongest fist has the final say.
Unexpectedly, one day passed, and apart from seven or eight more versions of speculation about the Holy Fire in the streets, the Pharmacist Guild did not respond at all. In the eyes of others, even if the president does not stand up and express his position clearly, there will always be one or two senior pharmacists who have a close relationship with the Guangming Sect who will stand up and defend the Guangming Sect. But, no, not one!
Not reacting is also a reaction; not expressing an attitude also shows an attitude.
However, there are some rumors circulating within the guild. It is said that Master Yan was very disdainful of the protest submitted by the Guangming Sect. He said: "Protesting is nonsense. What pharmacists refine are elixirs, life-saving elixirs that people take into their mouths, not other insignificant things. Since someone has raised questions, then provide evidence to prove otherwise. That’s fine, it’s useless to talk so much nonsense!”
The pharmacist who spoke imitated the pyromancer's demeanor as he spoke, as if he was at the scene.
"Yes, I heard about it too. It seems that the Holy Son of Light bombed the courtyard where he lived as soon as he returned."
"Is it true? So irritable! I didn't notice it at all before."
"Why are you lying to me? Many people around the Illuminati Church heard and saw it last night."
"In the process of refining elixirs, there are doubts about the elixir recipe, different opinions on the refining of certain medicinal materials, or different opinions on the control of fire. Isn't it normal to bring it up for discussion afterwards? Besides, she is just a teenage girl, so she speaks more straightforwardly, but how can she be so unyielding! When did the Light Sect become so overbearing?"
"You just know that the Illuminating Sect is no longer overbearing for a day or two."
"If you ask me, I can't blame him for being irritable. Think about it, if it were you, you would only bombard the place where you live? I'm afraid you have the heart to kill people."
"That's true. That's an eighth-grade elixir. I'm afraid I've only seen it once in my life. It's so useless. I can only say that the little girl named Yun has a great mouth."
"Listening to what you said, is it possible that what the first-grade pharmacist from Yulan Kingdom named Yun Tai said is true? The so-called holy fire of the Guangming Sect is really the fire of hell? That eighth-grade pill is really infected with the undead breath?"
"Eight-nine are inseparable from ten. Otherwise, why don't the Illuminati just throw out the evidence and fight back as Master Yan said, and then babble and talk useless nonsense?"
"That's not true. If the Holy Fire is really the Fire of Hell, then the Illuminati Sect's joke will be really big this time!"
"Who says it isn't?"
"And I also heard that the Guangming Sect has the custom of rewarding meritorious ministers with elixirs refined by the Holy Fire..."
"Yes, yes, I was lucky enough to attend a grand ceremony of light before. One of the parts of the ceremony was that the Pope personally presented elixirs specially refined with the Holy Fire."
"Pfft...are you really sure this is a reward and not a murder?"
Of course, there are also many pharmacists who think that Yun Tai is talking nonsense and deliberately slandering him in an attempt to help Yulan Country regain some of the situation.
"This little girl who is still fresh in the clouds is talking nonsense. She said that the Holy Fire of Light is the Fire of Hell or the Fire of Hell? So many people are stupid enough to believe it."
"That's not true. That's the holy fire of light, which has been passed down for hundreds of years! It's something that a teenage girl can criticize! I really don't know what to say."
"Exactly. If it is really the hell fire, then the flame must contain a lot of undead magic. How can there be so many of us that no one can feel it? Could it be that there are so many kings present who can't sense magic better than A little third-grade water magician? How funny!"
But regardless of the crowds or believers of the Guangming Sect, they still watch the excitement and don't mind it. Master Yan's words were unanimously recognized by both parties. After all, elixirs are not ordinary things, so no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful. Especially, it was an eighth-grade elixir! Therefore, the most effective way to solve the problem is to ask the Guangming Sect to provide evidence to prove that the Holy Fire of Light is not the fire of hell. Then the claim that the eighth-grade elixir is contaminated with the breath of the undead will naturally be defeated.
Everyone was waiting with wide eyes to see the easter egg crack before the rematch of the Medicine Master Competition.
Unexpectedly, three days passed by in a blink of an eye, and after the Illuminati Sect submitted two letters of protest, there was no follow-up action. This disappointed many onlookers and made many believers indignant. Some people couldn't help but murmur in their hearts, could it be that everything Yun Tai said was true? More people are wondering, did the Guangming Sect give in so easily? This doesn’t seem like their style of doing things!
On the day of the rematch, the weather was good, the sun was shining brightly, and there were no clouds in the sky.
There was no special box for the seeded players this time. President Xichen and the senior pharmacists from Dan City sat together in the main stand. Yun Tai sat back among Yu Lan's spectator team.
The arena is still so big, but there are only fifty alchemy stone platforms left in the arena.
"Fifty makes five. Huo Miao Pharmacist, which five do you think can make it to the finals this year? Does Dean Zisu hope to get a spot?" Downey, who was sitting in the back row, leaned forward with a worried look on his face and asked. Huo Miao, who was in the front row, wanted to get a reassuring answer from him.
"Looking at the strength of alchemy alone, except for the two branch presidents of the seventh-grade pharmacists, the gap between other pharmacists is actually not that big. If nothing else, the two presidents should be able to get two places in the finals .Who will get the remaining three spots?" Huo Miao shook his head, "It's hard to say."
In previous years, it was eight out of fifty, but this year there were three final places missing! The probability is 1 out of 10!
"Basically, if you don't fight for the seventh-grade elixir, don't talk about making it to the finals." Wen Nanshi said with his eyebrows furrowed.
Yun Tai was not surprised that the seventh-grade elixir was refined in the semi-finals. She was curious: "Where did you get so much spiritual energy to refine so many seventh-grade elixirs?"
During the preliminary competition, in order to refine several seventh-grade pills, Yulan's pharmacists made detailed calculations in advance, including the distribution of spiritual energy and a compensation plan.
"So the semi-finals are not so much a competition between pharmacists in alchemy, but a team competition." Huo Miao said.
Team competition?
Looking at the participating pharmacists entering the venue, Yun Tai was thoughtful.
"No matter what grade of elixir you refine, you need spiritual energy. The higher the grade, the greater the need for spiritual energy..."
"So those sixth-grade pharmacists entered the semi-finals not to learn or to challenge, but to help a certain seventh-grade pharmacist compete for the spiritual energy needed to make alchemy?" Yun Tai asked.
This reminded Yun Tai of a fantasy online article that broke many online records in his previous life. The reason why Xiao was able to make an elixir successfully in his last alchemy competition was because he obtained the semi-finished elixir refined by three other opponents...
Huo Miao nodded: "That's right. Use the sixth-grade pill to compete for spiritual energy, and then send the sixth-grade pill into the seventh-grade pharmacist's pill furnace to increase the success rate of refining the seventh-grade pill."
"So the more of us who enter the semi-finals, the more guaranteed we will be in the finals." Wen Nanshi added.
The largest number of participants in the field now is undoubtedly Dancheng’s pharmacist team. The least one is the Northwest Alliance, which should not be said to be the Nanyang Region and the Polar Ice Kingdom. Neither of these two sides can even enter the semi-finals!
"But, wouldn't there be conflicts between the medicinal materials in different elixir recipes...?" As soon as Yun Tai finished speaking, she immediately realized that she had asked a super stupid question.
Needless to say, who refined what elixir? A plan for this kind of thing must have been made in advance, and depending on the number of people, more than one plan was made!
In order to make up for her stupidity, Yun Tai quickly changed the topic. She glanced at the participating pharmacists and asked in a brisk tone: "So, the two seventh-grade pharmacists of the Guangming Sect are out of business?"
Dang Dang Dang...
"Hey, what happened? The competition time hasn't come yet? Could it be that this is the preparation bell?"
While everyone was whispering, they all focused their doubtful eyes on President Xichen in the main stand.
Xichen also stood up from his seat with a puzzled look on his face and took a half step forward to see what happened.
At this time, the Holy Son of Light stood up from his seat in the side stands and gave a priestly salute to Xichen: "I would like to use the Medicine Master Competition for a few minutes to resolve a matter. Please allow me, President."
Several pharmacists from the Guangming Sect who entered the semi-finals also came down from the stone platform and walked to the front of the field to show their support for the actions of the Holy Son of Light.
There was an obvious sound of air-conditioning on the field.
Is this going to... ruin things? !
