Chapter 304: Fire Race
Elder Dan came suddenly and left quickly. Shen Xiang was stunned as he looked at the things in the storage bag. The colorless Ganoderma lucidum was exquisite and translucent, as if it was carved out of crystal. It contained the five elements of spiritual energy, and it also fused the five elements of spiritual energy together to become colorless spiritual energy. He felt that this was very similar to his Qiankun Zhenqi.
There were only two five-leaf clover plants, a small grass with five leaves of different colors, and two colorless Ganoderma lucidum and two five-colored lotus seeds. These were all found by Elder Dan for him, which touched him deeply. He decided to give Elder Dan something when he returned.
Although this was a mysterious woman, Shen Xiang gradually developed a good impression of her.
The sun rises and the sunlight shines on the earth, which means that the alchemy competition in Piaoxiang City is about to begin. Shen Xiang is a participant in the advanced competition and the youngest person to participate in the advanced competition. He has just been promoted to the fifth-level alchemist.
There were not many people participating in the high-level competitions, but the number of people coming to watch was the largest. The competition stage was surrounded by people, and there were only thirty low tables on it, which meant that there were only thirty participants. However, the number of people participating in the low-level and intermediate competitions was over a hundred, so the competition venue was also very large.
"Damn it, has Brother Shen come? Why can't I see him?" Zhu Rong said depressedly. The whole square was packed with people. This competition was the finale of the Danxiang Taoyuan Festival, so it would be strange if there were not many people.
Yun Xiaodao, Xu Weilong, the Lei brothers and Lian Mingdong were also here. They squeezed into the crowd and stopped to look at the intermediate competition arena. Everyone on it was there, but there was no sign of Shen Xiang.
Yao Haisheng and Wu Qianqian were both competing in the intermediate competition. Wu Qianqian, in particular, was a young, beautiful and stunning female alchemist who attracted many people's attention. Female alchemists were rare, but they usually achieved great things. For example, the headmaster of Danxiang Taoyuan and the elder Dan of Taiwumen were both female alchemists, and they were also the top alchemists on Chenwu Continent.
"You bunch of idiots, hurry up and look at the advanced competition arena. Shen Xiang is over there." Hao Dongqing shouted. His voice was not only heard by Yun Xiaodao and the others, but also by many people. They all looked at the advanced competition arena at the same time.
Soon, Shen Xiang's tall and burly figure was found by them. Shen Xiang actually appeared in the high-level competition. This news spread like wildfire, and the entire arena exploded in an instant.
There were bursts of exclamations, because the fact that Shen Xiang could stand on the high-level competition field meant that Shen Xiang was at least a fifth-level alchemist. He was already a fifth-level alchemist at such a young age, which scared Yun Xiaodao and the others greatly.
"I have to admire this young man, but it is not a wise move for him to do this."
"Yes, it seems that he has just become a fifth-level alchemist. In the advanced arena, all the players are at the fifth and sixth levels. He has just entered the fifth level, which is very disadvantageous to him. Who among those on the stage is not a famous alchemist?"
"You are still too young!"
"Haha, now the people in the intermediate arena should laugh, as they have lost such a powerful opponent."
"..."
Listening to the discussions of the people below, Yun Xiaodao and the others knew that it would be very disadvantageous for Shen Xiang to participate in high-level competitions now. They also secretly blamed Shen Xiang for being so reckless.
Wu Qianqian's eyes sparkled with a strange light as she looked at Shen Xiang's back and sighed slightly in her heart. She originally thought that she could compete with Shen Xiang here, but there was still a level difference between them.
Yao Haisheng also sighed. He didn't expect that his young master was so talented and could reach the level of a fifth-stage alchemist in one fell swoop.
Lian Chang Yun was also here. Although he was injured by Shen Xiang, his injury was not very serious. His father was the owner of Lotus Island and had many elixirs, so he recovered completely within a few days. He saw that Wu Qianqian, this stunning beauty, was actually looking at Shen Xiang in the distance with admiring eyes, which made him even more jealous, and he snorted coldly in his heart.
Not long ago, there were rumors in Taiwu Sect that Shen Xiang and Wu Qianqian were a couple. Everyone who paid attention to Shen Xiang knew about it. When Lian Chang Yun thought of this, he clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could smash Shen Xiang's head.
Yun Xiaodao and his friends found a place where they could watch the intermediate and advanced competitions. At this time, Madam Li also stood on the advanced competition arena to announce the content of the first level of the competition.
"The most basic thing for an alchemist is fire. The first level is a fire competition to see who has the most powerful fire and who has the best fire control skills."
While Mrs. Li was speaking, some people walked onto the field. On the wide low table in front of each person was a candle that was half a person's height and as thick as a thigh.
"In the candles in front of you, there are some small red ice cubes the size of rice grains. You have to burn this candle, then take out the small red ice particles and put them in an ice box next to it. There are 100 small ice particles in each candle. The people who can take out the least small red ice particles within the rated time will be eliminated."
Shen Xiang released his spiritual sense and saw the candle in front of him very clearly. There were indeed some special ice particles in it. Under normal circumstances, it was difficult to melt, but if it came into contact with the flame, it would melt immediately.
The advanced arena will eliminate five people per round, the intermediate arena will eliminate fifteen people per round, and the low-level arena will have the most, with twenty people per round.
What Shen Xiang can be sure of now is that this competition has many levels, but the first level is a piece of cake for him.
The competition has not started yet, and this is a time for the participants to be well prepared. Shen Xiang also took the opportunity to look at the participants. In the evening, Elder Dan gave him the information of these people. Except for a few people, the others are all relatively famous alchemists in Chenwu Continent.
Among them, the alchemists from Danxiang Taoyuan and Lianhua Island account for the largest number, with eight in Danxiang Taoyuan and seven on Lianhua Island. The others are alchemists trained by Zhenwu Sect, Shouwu Sect and Aojian Sect, all of whom are sixth-stage alchemists.
After Shen Xiang read the information of these people, he realized that he was the only fifth-stage alchemist standing in this arena, and it was a low-priced one. He knew why these people did not take him seriously, because they, the sixth-stage alchemists, were not afraid of a low-priced fifth-stage alchemist at all.
Shen Xiang looked at the unknown sixth-stage alchemist. The information showed that these people were most likely sent by Xiaoyao Xianhai.
"It's time to get ready. Start!" Mrs. Liu announced the start of the competition. The entire arena fell silent, and everyone was staring at the alchemists on the field. These alchemists were high and mighty in their hearts. Now that they could watch them compete up close, they felt more or less excited.
The first level of the competition is neither difficult nor easy. It not only tests the flames, but also tests the spiritual awareness and fire control.
After releasing the flame, many alchemists realized that this wax was not ordinary wax and was difficult to melt. If they increased the flame, they were worried that it would affect the delicate red ice particles inside, which gave many people a headache.
It's not right to burn, and it's not right not to burn. Only those who are very confident in their flames and consciousness dare to let go and burn. Shen Xiang is one of them. His flame is the most fierce, and it's so hot that a group of people below are sweating. These people are also worried about Shen Xiang. Isn't he afraid of burning the ice particles inside with such a burning method?
