Chapter 497 Difficulty Rises
The moment Shi Qi brought the Stone Scale Sect disciples to the square behind Phoenix Villa, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.
There were even quite a number of disciples pointing at Shi Qi and the others, discussing something softly.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Lin Xuan's mouth curled up slightly.
From the looks of it, the conflict between the Stone Scale Sect and the Explosive Flame Sect should have been known by the other sects.
After Liu Zhifei and the others arrived, Lin Xuan walked over and said a few words to Liu Zhifei and the others before burying his head in the alchemy room.
After seeing that the pill refiners of the various sects had basically entered their respective pill refining rooms, Chen Yunxiao, the vice master of Phoenix Villa, said a few words and announced the start of the last round of the pill refining competition of the Cloud Summit Convention.
Chen Yunxiao had announced that he was going to refine one of the three elixirs, namely, the Creation Rejuvenation Pill, the Copper Head Iron Arm Pill, and the Tiger Bone Jade Marrow Pill.
Moreover, he only announced the names of the three pills this time. Not only did he not give them the recipe, but he did not even reveal the most important natural treasures.
After Chen Yunxiao announced the title of this round of alchemy competition, the alchemy cultivators of the various sects in the square behind Phoenix Villa were immediately in an uproar.
They all knew that the questions for the third round of the Cloud Summit Alchemy Competition were much harder than the previous ones.
Therefore, when Chen Yunxiao finished speaking, it immediately caused dissatisfaction among many small sects.
" Your Phoenix Villa has gone too far. Our Heavenly Spider Sect has chosen to withdraw."
"Our Huangsha Mountain has also chosen to withdraw."
"Our Tian Mi Sect has also chosen to withdraw. Your Phoenix Villa has set such rules. This is really unreasonable."
Chen Yunxiao only turned his head and ignored the complaints from the small sects.
And Shi Qi of the Stone Scale Sect, who had already suffered a setback earlier and had completely lost face in the first round of the Alchemy Competition, could finally not sit still anymore.
Shi Qi immediately stood up and criticized," Phoenix Villa doesn't do things like this, right? This is unfair to cultivators from small sects like us."
"Oh?"
When Chen Yunxiao heard Shi Qi say this, he immediately turned to Shi Qi and asked with interest,"Shi Qi, then according to what you say, what do you think is the fairest?"
"According to what I said, you should have given some easier questions for refining pills. Moreover, you can't just give a pill name. You must also give the corresponding pill formula and the corresponding natural treasures."
Shi Qi's words immediately attracted the rebuttal of the Purple Flower Sect, Snow Fox Sect, and other large sects.
" Shi Qi, are you as old and muddle-headed as your master?" Hua Feihong of the Purple Flower Sect teased.
" That's right. I think your Stone Scale Sect should have suffered a setback in the first round of the Alchemy Competition and was holding back a bellyful of anger. Now, you're starting to use this as an excuse to cause chaos?" Xue Jing Sheng of the Snow Fox Sect could not help but tease from the side.
Hua Feihong, Xue Jingsheng, do you two think that all sects are as rich in resources as your two big sects?"
Before Shi Qi could reply, Huang Yi, the elder of Huangsha Mountain, was the first to refute Hua Feihong and Xue Jingsheng.
" That's right. I think Elder Huang Yi of Huangsha Mountain is right. You big sects clearly want to bully us small sects in the final round of the Alchemy Competition. You don't give us small sects a chance at all."
"Opportunity?"
Hua Feihong of the Purple Flower Sect sneered and said," It's already a very good result for small sects like you to be able to enter the second round. Do you still want to enter the top five?"
" Huang Yi, let me tell you something. You small sects shouldn't question it. Instead, you should use other methods to improve the strength of your Huangsha Shandan Hall disciples. Don't always blame this and that."
As soon as Hua Feihong said this, some of the large sects present maintained their silence.
Even the famous Boundless Island and Boundless Temple were silent at this time.
To the pill refiners of Boundless Island, even if the elders of Phoenix Villa's Pill Hall set such a difficult test in the third round of the pill refinement competition, it would not affect them at all.
As for the disciples of the Wuliang Temple, they were still expressionless.
"Isn't the attitude of the Purple Flower Sect of Qi too arrogant?"
Even Gao Yuehan couldn't help but frown.
"Miss Gao, the attitude of the Zihua Sect in Qi State actually represents the attitude of the major sects."
Liu Zhifei raised his head and looked at Gao Yuehan and the others. He continued to explain," Huangsha Mountain, Sky Spider Sect, and Sky Secret Sect are all small sects. Their willingness is limited. Even if their sects have established Pill Halls, they will naturally find it difficult to develop with extremely limited resources."
" In fact, if it weren't for the fact that our Snow Mountain Academy and Yunmo Academy have so many books, we would have received the same treatment."
After hearing Liu Zhifei's words, Yu Xueqing, who was standing beside him, said," Is it because of this that the previous Chu King Zongteng suppressed us?"
"Well," she said.
Liu Zhifei nodded and said," Of course, one of the reasons is that Chu Zongteng doesn't want our Snow Mountain Academy and Yunmo Academy to develop into big sects with their own resources. The deeper game is something that we don't know about."
"Now that Zong Teng is dead, we have also welcomed a turning point. We don't have to worry so much."
"You know, your arm can't twist your thigh."
After Liu Zhifei finished speaking, he looked at Lin Xuan's alchemy room again.
After Shi Qi, Huang Yi, and the others 'opinions were refuted by Hua Feihong of the Magnificent Purple Sect, Xue He, and the others of the Snow Fox Sect, their emotions began to become more agitated.
Huang Yi even clenched his fists tightly, looking as if he was going to beat Hua Feihong up.
Chen Yunxiao, the vice leader of Phoenix Villa, immediately pretended to cough a few times when he saw this. He glared at Huang Yi fiercely and warned Huang Yi not to cause trouble in Phoenix Villa.
Chen Yunxiao, why are you staring at me?"
" Sect Leader Huang, don't forget that this is our Phoenix Villa's territory. If you have any problems, you can wait until after the Cloud Summit Convention ends before negotiating. Now, if you want to disrupt the Cloud Summit Convention's alchemy competition, then we won't be polite."
After saying this, Chen Yunxiao immediately took a step forward.
A few sharp killing intent immediately burst out from Chen Yunxiao's body. Some cultivators with lower realms immediately felt a chill run down their spines.
