Chapter 1942 - 1945: The Stunning Fairy Takes the Championship

"Alright, it's settled then! As for the minor details, we can discuss them and officially sign the contract when Shen Qiang, the Shen Medicine King, returns," the elder of Qingyun Sword Pavilion stood up and said.Bianyi smiled amiably, remaining seated, and calmly said, "Very well, then let's do that. We're all insiders here, so I won't see you out."

The people of Qingyun Sword Pavilion snorted coldly at his words and turned to leave.

As they left, Zuo Lianghao, who was sitting on the sofa, raised an eyebrow and said, "Those folks from the Qingyun Sword Pavilion surnamed Kang don't seem like good people, Bianyi, do you really think integrating them is a good idea?"

Bianyi chuckled warmly and said, "The Cultivation World values heritage highly. Even if one's cultivation is abysmally poor, coming from a prestigious and ancient sect immediately makes them look down on others."

"Shen Qiang is formidable, but Heshenghe's foundation is based on demons. There is much criticism in the Cultivation World, but with Qingyun Sword Pavilion's inclusion, these issues become irrelevant."

Zuo Lianghao frowned, saying, "Just a group of weak sword cultivators, not many real powerhouses among them."

Bianyi laughed, "With a large conglomerate, manpower is needed everywhere. If you dislike them, then you can handle all those petty chores."

Zuo Lianghao chuckled and said, "Then what puzzles me is, if you find them useful, why not see them off? Won't this make you seem arrogant and rude?"

Upon hearing this, Bianyi chuckled, then turned around, gazing through the enormous floor-to-ceiling windows at the towering buildings outside, and calmly said, "Do you think if I am polite to them, they will respect me? That's impossible. The only reason they smoothly merged into Heshenghe is because Shen Qiang is the Medicine King."

"Following the Medicine King is an honor, and I'm merely a lackey beside the Medicine King; it would be surprising if they respected me."

Zuo Lianghao raised his eyebrows sharply, "Then let's make them lower their heads."

Bianyi laughed, turned around, looked at Zuo Lianghao, and smiled, "Do you know what Shen Qiang first said to me when he invited me to join?"

Zuo Lianghao shook his head.

Bianyi smiled, "No internal conflict, use your skills externally."

Zuo Lianghao raised an eyebrow and said, "The relationship between levels doesn't correlate with whether there's internal conflict or not."

Bianyi chuckled and said, "You're still too young. What Shen Qiang and I really want is to play with the treasured artifacts of each major sect. To achieve that, we need sufficient strength. Whether the Qingyun Sword Pavilion folks are arrogant or pretending to be powerful, I won't be bothered as long as they dare to step out and wield their swords when we need them."

Zuo Lianghao paused for a moment, then smiled, "The people of Qingyun Sword Pavilion are all fighters. They certainly have courage, but now, it seems our number of cultivators may exceed that of demons."

Bianyi laughed, "Young men shouldn't have stray thoughts. Heshenghe belongs to Shen Qiang and to us, which is precisely why I intentionally do not forge close relationships with the Qingyun Sword Pavilion folks. Internal strife harms the roots the most, and this world is vast, with many strong individuals. Finding an opponent is easy; there's no need to seek one nearby."

Zuo Lianghao said, "Alright, you're right, Bianyi, I got it. But if the Qingyun Sword Pavilion folks give me trouble, don't expect me to be courteous to them."

Bianyi raised an eyebrow with a smile and said, "If they dare to trouble you, no need to say more, just beat them up without hesitation."

Hearing this, Zuo Lianghao laughed.

Meanwhile, on the gymnasium side.

Without Shen Qiang and Qin Yurou, the elixir pill tournament's judging segment became rather dull.

Especially after witnessing Shen Qiang's awe-inspiring Calamity Relief Golden Pill, and the pill wall composed of a whopping five thousand pills, the elixir pills brought forth by others appeared lacking in comparison, not only to the spectators but even the judges seemed rather uninterested.

So, until the sun set and it was early evening, following several rounds of judging, when the final review concluded, everyone felt not particularly thrilled, and instead, there was a sense of relief that it was finally over.

Not only did the judges feel relieved, but even the spectators couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness it's finished."

"Compared to Shen Qiang's elixir pills, the ones afterward seem far inferior."

"Indeed, not to mention Divine Grade, aside from Qin Yurou, there isn't even a high-grade pill among them. What's the point in watching?"

"Well, it makes sense why Shen Qiang is called the Medicine King."

Amidst the low spirits of everyone, the elixir pill review of Medicine King Valley came to a close.

However, when announcing the champion, those alchemists and ordinary cultivators became momentarily excited.

Because the champion was undoubtedly the stunning fairy, Qin Yurou's Shattering Star Pill.

After all, this pill can directly elevate a cultivator's cultivation from Yang God Realm to the Mixed Element Realm, and not only that, the pill's quality also reached a high-grade standard.

Moreover.

Qin Yurou is extremely beautiful, at the prime of her youth, as if a heavenly immortal. Winning the championship caused the hearts of many young alchemists and cultivators to ache even more!

"Do you guys wish Shen Qiang wasn't here?"

"Wishful thinking, it's not like without Shen Qiang you'd get to know Fairy Qin."

"Even the genius Chu Xiaotian could only stand aside; who else can reach her? Besides, Qin Yurou's skills are more impressive than her beauty; if one doesn't understand elixir pills or has inferior skills, what could they possibly chat about?"

"Exactly, Shen Qiang's the Medicine King, Qin Yurou's the champion of the pill tournament, the two really make a perfect match, made for each other."

Amid the bustling noise, the rest of the rankings were also announced.

Runner-up went to Shen Qiang's previous competitor, Kang He.

He was last year's champion, and obtaining second place this time, although unable to successfully defend his title, he at least saved some face.

But Lin Fenghang and Chu Xiaotian were quite miserable.

Because the third place in the tournament belonged to Chen Hao of the Chen Family's Thirty-two Skillful Hands.

Lin Fenghang was fourth.

While Chu Xiaotian was fifth.

Such results greatly displeased the prideful Chu Xiaotian.

Numerous alchemists who disliked him immediately offered mock encouragement.

"Hahaha, some people carry the title of a prodigious talent, yet didn't even make the top three, and that's with Shen Qiang not competing; otherwise, the top five wouldn't even be feasible."

"I'm embarrassed for him; even the fifth-place prodigy hasn't got anyone comparable."

"Tsk tsk, with this caliber, he still dares to compete with Shen Qiang, unable to surpass even his girlfriend, really, where does this confidence come from?"

Chu Xiaotian, hearing these words, abruptly stood up and angrily shouted, "Petty people! Stop gossiping here; in tomorrow's Dan Fighting, I will show you who is the true Medicine King!"
