C150 Heavenly Martial Academy's Head(1)

Time ticked by slowly as both sides intently watched their respective alchemists at work.

Half an hour later, Liang Ruoqing suddenly let out a sly laugh, pulled the handsome young man next to him in for a kiss, and announced loudly, "The pills are done!"

Liang Ruoqing's brazen behavior turned everyone's stomachs, but at that moment, they were all too focused on the results of his alchemy to care.

"Ruoxuan, didn't you say this guy couldn't make pills? Did you get cold feet and send him in to take the fall, huh? Ha!" Liang Ruoqing laughed heartily. Seeing no one respond, he continued, "Doesn't matter who challenges me, you're all finished. I'm in a great mood today, and my success rate has improved a lot. Nine treasure pills: eight top-grade level-eight pills and one top-grade level-seven pill. Ha ha..."

Level-eight pills are usually the limit for most alchemists. To produce nine pills in one batch, with eight being top-grade level-eight and one top-grade level-seven, is an impressive feat. Among alchemists under thirty, few can achieve such results.

Hearing this outcome, the Ma family was overjoyed, while Liang Ruoxuan and her group looked bitter.

Given the current situation, even if Woo Zhengyang managed to produce eight top-grade level-eight pills and one top-grade level-seven pill, he couldn't win. Ouyang Zhenshan would undoubtedly claim the Ma family won due to the time taken, and no one would question that.

Unless Woo Zhengyang can craft nine ultimate pills, is it even possible at his age?

“Haha... Did that kid fail at making pills and is too embarrassed to show them?” Ma Tengyue was undoubtedly the most excited. Having lost four teeth, his speech was a bit slurred, and today he’d been the butt of many jokes. His resentment toward Woo Zhengyang was the strongest, and even though he knew people would mock his speech, he never missed a chance to take a jab at Zhengyang.

“Even if he didn’t fail, he’s just struggling in vain. Why bother?” Liang Ruoqing chimed in.

Finally receiving a response after being ignored, Ma Tengyue cast a grateful glance at Ruoqing. However, Ruoqing’s appearance was less than flattering, and when Tengyue looked over, Ruoqing gave him a flirtatious wink.

That was the last straw for Tengyue, who turned away and started retching, almost dislodging another loose tooth.

“You two disgusting people, stop bothering Mr. Zhengyang while he’s making pills!” Liang Ruoxuan, though feeling the chances of success were slim, still stood up for Woo Zhengyang, shouting angrily.

“Hehe... Mr. Zhengyang, really? Ruoxuan, do you honestly think he can make nine ultimate pills?” Liang Ruoqing teased, leaning on a handsome young man beside her.

Ruoxuan hadn't spoken yet when Woo Zhengyang's voice rang out, "No worries, they can't bother me. Nine ultimate pills? That's nothing. Even nine peak treasure pills are no big deal!"

"Mr. Zhengyang, don't get distracted. Just do your best!" Ruoxuan quickly advised, seeing that Woo Zhengyang was still in the mood to talk. The thought of nine peak treasure pills was beyond her imagination.

"Ha... talk is cheap. If you're so capable, why don't you show us the pills? You've been at it for so long, do you really think you can make nine top-grade treasure pills? If you can produce nine peak pills, even if they're not top-grade, I'll admit you win!" Liang Ruoqing scoffed.

Hearing this, the Ma family almost rushed over to silence him. If Woo Zhengyang really did produce nine peak pills, they would be devastated. But on second thought, everyone relaxed. Woo Zhengyang had been quick when adding the herbs, and no one noticed what ingredients he used. However, they were sure that before Liang Ruoqing spoke, Woo Zhengyang wouldn't have made subpar pills. Even if he did now, they wouldn't allow it.

Besides, with Ouyang Zhenshan's judgment, Liang Ruoqing's words could be completely disregarded.

As everyone was caught up in their own thoughts, Woo Zhengyang was wrapping up his work, ready to reveal the pills. All eyes were on him, waiting with anticipation.

"Superior treasure pills? I wasn't aiming to make the same as you!" Woo Zhengyang said, catching nine jet-black pills in his hand with a smile. "I've crafted the finest treasure pills, each one a top-tier level eight pill!"

His words left everyone stunned, followed by skepticism. Could someone so young really create such high-quality pills? And all nine of them at that?

Only Liang Ruoxuan, despite her disbelief, had complete faith in Woo Zhengyang. As she approached and caught the scent of the pills, her excitement was palpable. She laughed, "Haha... Mr. Zhengyang, you're amazing! They really are eight top-tier Clear Mind Pills!"

Clear Mind Pills, like the Breakthrough Pills, help those in the Pulse Refining Stage advance to the Reality Condensing Stage. However, while Breakthrough Pills assist with energy surges, Clear Mind Pills stabilize the mind.
