Just as Lin Xuan was thinking this, Chen Yunxiao spoke again.

"Next, I announce the second place winner of this alchemy competition, Shi Xu from Wuliang Temple."

As soon as Chen Yunxiao finished speaking, Shi Xu of Wuliang Temple nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied with the result.

However, some of the disciples from Boundless Temple didn't smile as happily as others expected. Their faces were still extremely calm.

The performance of the disciples of the Wuliang Temple attracted the attention of the other sects, but at the same time, it also made everyone sigh.

"As expected of the disciples of the Wuliang Temple. It seems that the people of Wuliang Temple have a deep understanding of some of the scriptures of the Shi Sect."

"If nothing unexpected happens, I think the pill refinement competition of this year's Cloud Summit Convention will definitely belong to their Wuliang Temple."

"If that's the case, then wouldn't the Boundless Temple have made a fortune this time? It seems that Qiu Xuanzhi of the Boundless Temple defeated Xue He of the Snow Fox Sect in the last Cloud Summit Convention."

"Wuliang Temple is indeed the number one sect. The strength they displayed is still comparable to ours."

Many disciples were still discussing among themselves, but Liu Zhifei curled his lips.

"A group of sanctimonious fellows. They will still pretend in these big scenes."

"Oh?"

Lin Xuan looked at Liu Zhifei with interest.

For Liu Zhifei and Wuliang Temple monk Shi Duoye grievances, when Liu Zhifei with Lin Xuan about the time, Lin Xuan also know the whole story.

However, in Lin Xuan's impression, this was the first time Liu Zhifei was so angry.

"They're just bald monks from Wuliang Temple. They're a bunch of inhuman rules. Defeat them."

As soon as Lin Xuan finished speaking, Phoenix Villa's Deputy Villa Leader Chen Yunxiao continued,"I announce that the first place winner in the first round of the Alchemy Competition is Lin Xuan from Snow Mountain Academy."

"Not only did Lin Xuan refine the medicinal pill to the heaven-grade level, but he also increased the medicinal efficacy of the Great Strength Vajra Pill to 10%. This is the medicinal pill that Lin Xuan personally refined."

After Chen Yunxiao finished speaking, Chen Yunxiao showed everyone Lin Xuan's Strength Vajra Pill.

From afar, the Vigorous Vajra Pill that Lin Xuan personally refined did not seem to be much different from the Vigorous Vajra Pills refined by other pill refiners.

However, upon closer inspection, the surface of the Strength Vajra Pill refined by Lin Xuan was covered with faint golden patterns.

This was exactly the performance of the medicinal pill's 100% efficacy.

Everyone saw this clearly and fell silent.

After a while, there was a thunderous applause.

"Lin Xuan of Snow Mountain Academy, haha. I knew he would be able to refine such a high-level pill." Chen Mo of Phoenix Villa laughed loudly.

It was as if Lin Xuan was able to refine a Great Strength Vajra Pill with 100% of the medicinal strength within his expectations.

"Brother Lin Xuan is indeed amazing." Yan Yi from the Explosive Flame Sect couldn't help but smile.

On the other hand, Shi Qi and the others from the Stone Scale Sect had been hit with a stick. Their expressions were extremely depressed.

"Humph, I think our Stone Scale Sect should disband the Pill Hall after we return this time."

"You guys are really a bunch of useless trash who eat nothing. You can't even refine pills and will only bring shame to our Stone Scale Sect."

Shi Qi of the Stone Scale Sect started to curse at the disciples of their Stone Scale Sect. The other sects were more curious about Lin Xuan, who had won the first place in the first round of the Alchemy Competition.

"Who exactly is Lin Xuan from Snow Mountain Academy? Do any of you know?"

"I'm not sure. I remember that Xueshan Academy sent Liu Zhifei to participate in the Genting Conference several times ago to gain some experience."

"Perhaps, with the new Chu King Zongguang's ascension, Snow Mountain Academy will no longer be suppressed, and Snow Mountain Academy will recruit more students."

"In that case, the Snow Mountain Academy is really lucky. They managed to recruit an alchemy genius in a short time."

Liu Zhifei listened to the disciples of the other sects discussing their Snow Mountain Academy, and an indescribable sense of pride rose in his heart.

"Lin Xuan, it seems that after you obtained first place in the first round of the alchemy competition of the Cloud Summit Convention, you attracted the attention of many sect disciples all of a sudden," Liu Zhifei said with a smile.

Lin Xuan waved his hand and said to Liu Zhifei,"Liu Zhifei, don't laugh at me. If they want to say it, then say it. Anyway, I'm already used to it. No matter how they talk about me, I'll only do what I think I should do."

After Lin Xuan said this, he walked to the side and continued to prepare.

Since the alchemy competition of the Cloud Summit Conference had only gone through the first round of competition, many alchemy cultivators who had not entered the rankings and those who were dissatisfied with the current rankings were secretly rubbing their hands, preparing to surpass them in the next few rounds of the alchemy competition.

However, pill refiners like Lin Xuan and Chen Mo, who had entered the top five in the first round of the pill refinement competition, had a huge advantage. The top five had an extra 100 points, which directly widened the gap between them and the pill refiners who were ranked lower.

This was one of the reasons why Liu Zhifei and the others were worried that Lin Xuan would not be able to obtain a better ranking in the first round of the alchemy competition.

Liu Zhifei saw that Lin Xuan had begun to adjust his spiritual energy to prepare for the second round of the alchemy competition. He no longer urged him. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the spot and began to cultivate.

Lin Xuan did not cultivate for long. He recovered a little spiritual energy and adjusted his breathing before ending his cultivation.

For Lin Xuan now, his cultivation in a short period of time would not bring him too much breakthrough. It was enough to let him have a better state to welcome the second round of the alchemy competition.

The time for one incense stick to burn passed quickly. Chen Yunxiao, the vice master of Phoenix Villa, announced that they had entered the second round of the alchemy competition.

Just as everyone expected, when the Alchemy Competition entered the second round, the disciples of the Stone Scale Sect had already disappeared.

"Eh? Why aren't I seeing the disciples of the Stone Scale Sect?" Yu Xueqing asked curiously.

"Haha, I guess the Stone Scale Sect couldn't afford to lose face with this person, so they took the initiative to leave." Liu Zhifei replied with a smile.

"Do you know that the Stone Scale Sect can't afford to lose this person? I think those disciples of the Stone Scale Sect are rather thick-skinned. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to attack those female disciples of the Explosive Flame Sect," Qin Xia Yao said.

"That's right, I feel that their Stone Scale Sect is really shameless."
