Chapter 726: The Second Competition 4

Feeling a bit embarrassed, he turned to Great Master Rong Yun for help.

"Great Master, Luo Luo probably passed out from memorizing books. Look…"

Great Master Rong Yun's lips twitched slightly.

Without any visible effort, he simply brushed his wide sleeve, and a gust of fresh wind shot rapidly toward the sedan curtain.

*Bang—*

A violent sound rang out.

The exquisite sedan chair instantly shattered into pieces.

Su Luo, who had been lying in the sedan, realized the danger and suddenly sat up!

She instinctively leaped up and assumed a fighting stance, only to find the surroundings eerily silent.

Su Luo slowly opened her eyes and found countless pairs of eyes surrounding her.

In those eyes, her own comical movements were reflected.

Everyone was staring at her as if she were a fool.

Even someone as thick-skinned as Su Luo couldn't help but feel awkward.

She coughed twice, and her fighting stance fluidly transformed into a gesture of greeting.

She bowed slightly, paying her respects to Great Master Rong Yun and Emperor Jing.

'What kind of taste does that second boy have, to actually fancy this Stinky Girl who slept until her face was covered in marks?' Emperor Jing's lips twitched slightly as he turned his face away.

Great Master Rong Yun was not angry; instead, a flicker of interest flashed through his eyes, which were usually as indifferent as clouds. It was gone in a flash, unnoticed by anyone else.

"Awake?" This was the first sentence Great Master Rong Yun had spoken to Su Luo since they met.

Su Luo nodded awkwardly and then quickly tidied her messy hair.

It was also the fault of Bei Chenying and the others.

How could boys be so meticulous? At that time, they couldn't wake Su Luo no matter how they tried, and in their haste, they found a sedan chair and carried her over.

They hadn't even thought about giving her a proper grooming.

Under Su Luo's glare, the three young men looked at each other and shifted the blame amongst themselves.

Seeing them joking around as if no one else were there, a flash of fury crossed Yaochi Fairy's eyes!

She was the one who had grown up with Bei Chen and the others, yet why were they all siding with that Stinky Girl Su Luo now, treating her like thin air instead?

Yaochi Fairy glanced at Su Luo mockingly: "Do we need to reserve some time for Miss Su to groom herself first?"

No one expected that Great Master Rong Yun would actually speak up.

"The test will officially begin in the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn."

In other words, there was still the time of one incense stick for them to prepare?

Under normal circumstances, this would be a perfectly normal sentence.

But after Yaochi Fairy had provoked Su Luo, Great Master Rong Yun gave this response; the meaning within was… thought-provoking.

"Thank you, Great Master." Su Luo smiled sweetly and then shot a provocative glance at Yaochi Fairy.

Li Yaoyao's fists clenched at her sides!

What was wrong with Great Master Rong Yun? Was it really because he 'loved the house and its crow' that he was being so kind to that Stinky Girl Su Luo?

One incense stick's time was enough for Su Luo to return to the Golden Throne Hall refreshed and revitalized.

At this moment, in the center of the Golden Throne Hall, two desks were set up.

Su Luo and Yaochi Fairy each had a desk.

Pharmacist Leng distributed the exam papers one by one.

Su Luo received the paper and scanned it from top to bottom, finding that these questions really were in that massive pile of books.

However, there was simply too much to memorize, and Su Luo found herself getting a bit confused.

Yaochi Fairy stole a glance at Su Luo, and seeing her brow furrowed, a cold sneer crossed her heart.

This theoretical knowledge ranged from Intermediate Alchemist to Super Alchemist levels; Su Luo was just a mere Elementary Alchemist, worlds apart from this knowledge.
