Chapter 263: I Don’t Have Time to Waste on You

"Let's go, to Examination Hall No. 1!"

Wan Hong waved his hand and turned to walk into the examination hall.

Su Lang and Li Ming followed closely behind, and the rest of the crowd surged in after them.

Not long after,

everyone arrived at Examination Hall No. 1.

This was the largest examination hall in the Examination Hall Complex, usually used for group examinations.

But this time, there were too many spectators for the promotion challenge examination, so Wan Hong chose this place.

Examination Hall No. 1 was very spacious, with a huge platform in the middle. On it were many stone tables for Students taking group examinations.

"You two can choose any spot you like."

"The Alchemy Materials and Pill Furnaces are provided by the examination hall. I'll give them to you in a moment."

Wan Hong said unhurriedly, "Now, let me explain the challenge rules.

First, you two must agree on a type of Medicinal Pill and a time limit for Alchemy.

If you fail to refine the pill within the time limit, you lose. If both fail, it's a draw.

If both succeed, the first criterion for determining the winner is the quality of the pill. Whoever refines a higher-quality pill wins.

If the pill quality is the same, then the number of pills produced will be the standard. Whoever produces more pills wins.

If the number of pills is the same, then the time taken to refine the pill will be the deciding factor. Whoever uses less time wins. Understood?"

"Understood, Senior Brother Wan Hong!"

Li Ming smiled and cupped his hands, his face full of confidence.

Wan Hong waved his hand condescendingly, "In that case, you two can first agree on the pill."

As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes fell on Su Lang and Li Ming.

"Heh, I won't bully you!"

"Let's refine the simplest 4th-tier pill, the Blood Circulation and Muscle Growth Pill. How about it?"

Li Ming lifted his chin, looking at Su Lang with disdain, "Don't tell me you don't even know how to refine the Blood Circulation and Muscle Growth Pill."

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd chimed in with mockery.

"Him? A Potential-level student from the Special Class? Maybe he really doesn't know how to refine it!"

"If he can't refine it, Senior Brother Li Ming, why not compete with him using a 3rd-tier pill instead!"

"A 3rd-tier pill? Hahaha! Looking at him, I'd say he'd be lucky to refine a 2nd-tier pill!"

"…"

While everyone was mocking,

something unexpected happened.

"What's the point of refining a 4th-tier pill?"

"You're a Gold Student. According to the examination standards, you should be able to refine 8th-tier pills."

Su Lang curled his lips disdainfully, "Let's compete with the simplest 8th-tier pill, the five elements spirit recovery profound pill. Dare you?"

As soon as he said this, the hall fell silent. Everyone stared in disbelief.

Then, even more intense mockery echoed throughout the hall.

"Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter!"

"This guy actually wants to refine an 8th-tier pill. Does he even know what an 8th-tier pill is?"

"A mere Potential-level student dares to boast about refining an 8th-tier pill and even challenges a Gold Student. Is he crazy?"

"Relax, if he dares to suggest it, maybe he actually has some Alchemy skills, right?"

"How old is he? How much Alchemy skill could he possibly have? More like cheating skills!"

"We must keep a close eye on him later and not give him any chance to cheat."

"It's not about not letting him cheat, but about catching him cheating and making him realize how terrifying the punishments in the examination hall are!"

"Right, right! Let him taste the consequences!"

"…"

While everyone was whispering and discussing,

Li Ming, his face full of shock, also showed a cold sneer, "Since you insist on seeking death, let's refine the five elements spirit recovery profound pill. Time limit: two hours."

"Two hours?"

Su Lang raised an eyebrow, showing a hint of surprise.

"Hmph, think it's too short?"

Li Ming snorted disdainfully, "Then let's make it three hours. Surely you can refine it in three hours, right?"

"Hahaha!"

"I'm laughing so hard my stomach hurts!"

The others also burst into laughter.

"Not at all."

Su Lang curled his lips, "Two hours is too long. I don't have that much time to waste on you."

Upon hearing this, everyone was once again shocked by Su Lang's arrogance.

They truly hadn't expected someone could be this arrogant!
