Chapter 3628: Refused?!

"Where… where did I fall short?!" Cang Wu grit his teeth and said.

At this moment, Cang Wu felt incredibly indignant…

He didn't believe he was inferior to Xiao Fan.

Had Du Xingwen and Ju Huaqing not been right there, Cang Wu wouldn't have controlled his emotions at all.

The others nearby were also curious about exactly where Cang Wu fell short compared to Xiao Fan.

"That… it's the Impurities. Although your Medicinal Pill was successful, there are still some Impurities inside. At the critical moment, you altered the heat. While it wasn't enough to ruin the Materials, they couldn't reach their full medicinal potential. As for me, I stripped away those ruined Materials… Therefore, the quality of the Medicinal Pill is slightly higher," Xiao Fan spoke slowly.

"Just that? I'm inferior to you because of that? Besides, if you stripped away those Materials, didn't the original recipe change? Is that Medicinal Pill even the same one anymore?!" Cang Wu's voice rose a few notches.

"Well… that's why I stripped away the other Materials in their corresponding proportions as well. Although the final pill was smaller, its quality is flawless," Xiao Fan scratched his head awkwardly.

His relationship with Cang Wu had been decent, but now…

"Stripped them away? How… how did you do that?!" Cang Wu was shocked.

Everyone nearby was equally stunned, all of them gasping in shock.

One must realize that refining a Grade Four Divine Pill requires tens of thousands of rare Materials…

To identify just one damaged type and then strip away all the other corresponding Materials… it was unimaginable. Moreover, he was in the middle of Alchemy; how could he have the time to do such a thing?!

"It was just a… a feeling," Xiao Fan scratched his head awkwardly.

"A feeling? How… how is that possible?!" Cang Wu was aghast; he didn't believe those words at all.

"Hehehe… He's not lying. That is indeed what he did," Ju Huaqing spoke slowly.

It was precisely because he had witnessed this that Ju Huaqing had shown a look of astonishment earlier.

"That's right, it really happened… This is what you call talent, understand?" Du Xingwen said slowly.

"This… I…" At this moment, Cang Wu was completely dumbfounded.

Ordinary people often mess up the proportions of Materials thrown into the Pill Furnace, yet this person could strip away various Materials according to their ratios while performing Alchemy, achieving a flawless Medicinal Pill…

This was so inconceivable that Cang Wu found it hard to wrap his head around.

Not just Cang Wu, but everyone else nearby felt the same. Their gazes toward Xiao Fan were filled with shock, even Elder Bao was no exception…

At this moment, Elder Bao decided in his heart that he must maintain a good relationship with Xiao Fan.

With such talent, this person would surely become a Great Master of Alchemy in the future…

"Hehehe… Kid, follow this old man, and I guarantee you'll live the high life," Ju Huaqing said with a smile.

Hearing this, Du Xingwen said urgently, "Follow me… and you can walk tall anywhere in the Biyun Divine Palace!"

Xiao Fan: "…"

Taking in a Disciple with such a Prodigy's talent in Alchemy was something that would bring glory to their lineage and serve as bragging rights in the future.

At this moment, neither Du Xingwen nor Ju Huaqing was willing to back down, and they both began to offer terms.

For others, being able to join the Biyun Divine Palace was a dream come true, but for Xiao Fan, it was the exact opposite… he was contemplating which one to take as his master!

"This… I… well, Seniors, this Junior doesn't wish to take a master for the time being. Let's talk about it later. I don't want to cause any unpleasantness between you two because of me…" Xiao Fan hesitated and scratched his head awkwardly.

Hearing this, Du Xingwen and Ju Huaqing thought about it and felt his words were quite reasonable.

"Fine… Kid, don't bother with the assessment. I'll grant you the status of a Red-robed Disciple directly."

"I agree as well."

Du Xingwen and Ju Huaqing spoke in unison.

Upon hearing this, Cang Wu and the others were even more envious. Becoming a Red-robed Disciple of the Biyun Divine Palace directly meant a status higher than the masters they served.

"Well… I appreciate the kindness of you two Seniors, but… I still want to rely on my own hard work!" Xiao Fan hesitated, shook his head, and bowed to them with clasped hands.

Refused?!

Everyone nearby was dumbfounded!
