C151 Heavenly Martial Academy's Head(2)

In terms of effectiveness, each has its own strengths, but the Clear Heart Pill is particularly known for stabilizing the Reality Condensing Stage. However, it's incredibly complex to craft, earning it the status of a top-tier treasure pill.

When used together, the effects are even better. Woo Zhengyang intended to make the Clear Heart Pill while crafting the Breakthrough Pill, but he lacked the materials. As he began his alchemy, Woo Zhengyang suddenly realized that the spiritual herbs here, combined with those in his Hidden Heaven Bag, were enough to create the Clear Heart Pill. Naturally, he didn't hesitate to start crafting. Although it was his first attempt and took a bit longer, he successfully completed it, thanks to his powerful Soul Energy.

When Liang Ruoxuan announced that the pill was a Clear Heart Pill, everyone was visibly shocked. Among top-tier treasure pills, the Clear Heart Pill is notoriously difficult to make and extremely rare, especially the advanced version, which is even harder to find than the Breakthrough Pill.

Despite his young age, Woo Zhengyang managed to create eight pills of the highest quality, leaving everyone to wonder how far he would go in the future. Would he become a master alchemist? A Pill King? Or perhaps achieve even more?

The outcome of the Pill King Competition was now clear. Even if Woo Zhengyang had crafted the lowest quality Clear Heart Pill, it would still have been enough to outshine Liang Ruoqing.

However, given past experiences, no one held out hope for Ouyang Zhenshan's fairness. They were just waiting to see how he would decide this time and whether he'd come up with another absurd excuse.

Two pills were presented before Ouyang Zhenshan. He stared at them in silence for a long time. The pills were crafted using a special technique that combined their ingredients into a solid form. If successful, the pill would hold together; if not, it would crumble.

Woo Zhengyang's Clear Mind Pill was smooth and flawless, its quality evident at a glance, and it was a grade higher. He couldn't find any excuse to favor the Ma family, yet the Ma family head had secretly promised him something of great importance, along with future profits from the Pill Pavilion.

Everyone was eagerly waiting, but Yu Jun couldn't sit still any longer and directly asked, "Principal Ouyang, aren't you going to announce the results of the Pill King Competition?"

"Hmph! I know how to make a decision! But this is a significant matter, and I need to thoroughly test the pill's effects. I'll announce the results in three days!" Ouyang Zhenshan retorted coldly.

Ouyang Zhenshan's stalling naturally seemed suspicious, as if he might be planning something underhanded. As the vice principal of Heavenly Martial Academy, his shamelessness was hard to watch. Woo Zhengyang couldn't stand it any longer and said loudly, "Principal Ouyang, I have no objection to testing the pill, but there's no need to wait three days. I'm sure many here would agree to test the pill now."

"That's right... I agree!"

"I'm willing to give it a try too..."

"I'll try two at once..."

Hearing Woo Zhengyang say this, everyone went wild. The Treasure Pill and the Spirit Pill are incredibly rare, and many here are stuck at the peak of the Nine-star Martial Disciple stage. Given the chance to try them for free, they were more than eager, especially since the quality of these pills was so high.

This time, Ouyang Zhenshan's expression turned cold. Yu Jun, being one of the four leaders and a strong figure at the Shape Gathering Stage, questioning him was one thing. But now, even a young boy was showing him no respect, and the worst part was, he had no excuse to refuse the trial of the pills.

Just as Ouyang Zhenshan was at a loss, a clear female voice suddenly emerged from the crowd: "In that case, let's test the pills right here!"

As soon as she finished speaking, another voice chimed in: "You say test the pills, but what if the people volunteering were all set up by the Liang family?"

The person who spoke last had a lisp, and it was naturally Ma Tengyue. The Ma family members were delighted that Ma Tengyue said this. Even though it sounded like an excuse, it was at least plausible. This way, they could delay announcing the results for three days.

In three days, they could figure something out, and at the very least, they could be shameless enough to arrange for people to test the pills as Ma Tengyue suggested.

The situation has escalated to such a point that the means no longer matter. The Ma family’s reputation is already in ruins, so as long as they can seize the Pill King Pavilion and the Pill King Note, it will be worth it. If they lose the Pill King Competition, they will truly lose both fame and fortune.

While some are thrilled, others are troubled. The Ma family is ready to embrace shamelessness to the fullest, overjoyed at the prospect. On the other hand, Liang Ruoxuan’s side looks grim, with Woo Zhengyang fuming with anger. Ouyang Zhenshan’s brazen shamelessness once again opened Woo Zhengyang’s eyes to the reality that some people can be so blatantly shameless.

Ultimately, it’s a matter of strength. Although they have Yu Jun on their side, Yu Jun is merely one of the four commanders of Cloud City. In terms of status, he ranks lower than even an inner elder of the Heavenly Martial Academy, let alone Vice Principal Ouyang Zhenshan, who even the current emperor respects. Otherwise, Liang Ruoxuan’s marriage contract wouldn’t exist.

As both sides experience their own joys and worries, Ouyang Zhenshan’s expression suddenly changes. He quickly steps toward the person who just spoke, respectfully greeting, “Ouyang Zhenshan, at your service, Principal!”
