Hearing that, Lathel felt strange and asked: "You... So why did you still let them compete?"
"Hahaha… you're so stupid." Lilith used her index finger to point at the center of Lathel's forehead, she then smiled and said: "If I don't let them compete, they will say I'm unfair."
"Besides… I heard all about the trouble between him and Alec. That's why this competition must take place."
Lathel felt that Lilith accepting him as her disciple was unfair to Alec and Radius.
Below, Alec read the medicinal recipe while paying attention to the area where Lilith sat.
Seeing Lilith sitting close to Lathel, and her curves touching Lathel's arms made Alec so angry that his eyes looked like they were about to spit fire.
"Calm down!" Alec's teacher's voice rang in his head: "Don't miss this good opportunity because of a woman."
"Use your talent, strength and patience to make her notice you."
Alec took a deep breath and silently told his teacher: "I know. Don't worry, I will definitely win this competition."
"Oh! Could it be that… are you planning to use that method of fusing medicinal herbs?"
"That's right." Alec silently said: "To attract her attention, I have to use that method."
"Well okay. After all, you already possess the Anaconda Flame, if you use that method, you have a 50% chance of being able to create high-grade medicine."
Alec nodded, then glanced up at where Lilith sat with confidence and provocation: 'Woman, pay attention to what I'm about to do. You… will witness the miracle I create."
Radius was still reading the medicinal recipe, he was frowning, and he felt a bit confused.
Although the medicine they needed to prepare was only a 1-star medicine, in fact, the way to prepare this medicine was very difficult, approaching even a 2-star medicine.
It would not be wrong to say that this is a test to promote a Pharmacist Enchanter to 2 stars.
Suddenly, Radius noticed Alec preparing to prepare the medicinal herbs. He frowned, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: 'Not good, could it be that that country boy can prepare this kind of medicine?'
Alec took out a bronze cauldron. That cauldron was quite large, about 100cm high, the diameter of the cauldron was also about 50cm, and the outside was carved with a few motifs of rare herbs.
When Radius saw that cauldron he immediately felt disdain: "Huh! It's just an ordinary cauldron, do you think you can win thanks to that cauldron?"
Hearing that, Alec also looked at Radius with contempt: "Radius, preparing medicinal herbs does not only rely on tools, but also on your own abilities. If you rely too much on tools, you will never make progress."
Radius gritted his teeth, his hands clenched so tightly that they turned white: "You're just making excuses for your poverty."
After he finished speaking, he took out a purple cauldron, this cauldron was the same size as Alec's cauldron. However, on the cauldron there were three white lines, emitting sparkling light.
When the crowd sitting in the stands saw that cauldron, they immediately started chatting.
"That is a D -Rank Cauldron."
"A D-Rank Cauldron can increase the success rate when preparing medicinal herbs by 10% and increase the rate of high-grade medicinal herbs appearing by 2%.
"That cauldron is probably worth more than 20,000 gold coins."
"No, even if someone paid 20,000 gold coins, they might not be able to buy that cauldron."
"It's good to have a rich father, Radius will definitely win."
"Hahaha… that's natural, how can that country boy win against Radius with just a cauldron that looks like a pile of scraps?"
"But he has an Anaconda Flame, that type of Flame can also increase the success rate when preparing medicinal herbs."
"Please… surely that country boy is just lucky enough to possess that kind of Beast Flame."
"If Radius wins this time, he will get the Anaconda Flame, so perhaps he will be the youngest person to reach the 2-star Pharmacist Enchanter in the Enchanter Tower."
Alec heard the crowd talking, and insulting him, but he didn't pay attention. At this time, he only focused on preparing the medicinal herbs.
'That's right… continue to look down on me, insult me… if I win, you will have to bow before me, and be surprised by my talent.'
Alec was feeling extremely happy, so he took this chance to glance towards the area where Lilith was sitting.
The scene there startled him, then, he clenched his teeth, and his face became extremely fierce.
"Lathel…" Alec gritted his teeth and mumbled: "When this competition ends, that's when you die."
In the area where Lilith's group was sitting, she was pressing her 'two mountains' onto his arms to the point where they deformed.
Lathel also felt their softness and warm temperature, however, he knew that Lilith was a main female character, so he could not have much contact with her.
That's why he tried to avoid and even push Lilith away. But Lilith was many times stronger than him, and no matter how hard he tried, he cannot escape her.
In the end, Lathel had to 'bear' the weight of those two giant mountains.
However, the image in Alec's eyes was completely different, to him it was like Lathel was harassing Lilith.
Lathel also felt Alec's eyes that were filled with anger and hatred. He really wanted to cry but he couldn't .
'Do you think I want this? If given a choice, I wish that you could replace me.'
'Wait! Why would she do this to me? Could it be… she's trying to show off to Alec?'
'Certainly so. If Alec gets angry, he will show off all his talents, making everyone gasp in surprise.'
'This girl… is so cruel. Ah! After today, I have to leave Karol. If I continue staying here, that bastard Alec will definitely kill me.'
'The main male characters are all greedy people, if anyone touches their women, they will kill them.'
'Alright! After this is finished, tonight, I will take Lafien and Charlotte with me and leave this place, to another city.'
'If Lafien doesn't follow me, I don't care. After all, she needs me and Charlotte to continue living.'
After making this decision, Lathel felt much more comfortable.
Lilith suddenly saw Lathel smiling, it was a very gentle smile like a prisoner who had just been freed from prison.
"Lathel…" She suddenly whispered into his ear, making him shiver.
"Lilith… you… what do you want? I am warning you, there are a lot of people here, if you dare to do bad things, I will..."
"Oh! What will you do? Lilith moved even closer, her two soft mountains pressed tightly against his hands, while her hands even touched his thighs.
Lathel wanted to cry right now, he really wanted to cry. This was the first time he encountered this situation.
On the field, Alec waved his arms, snake-like flames that were more than 5 meters long wrapped around the bronze cauldron in front of him.
The cauldron was heated for 5 minutes. Alec felt that the temperature was right, so he threw all the ingredients into the cauldron.
The crowd was startled when they saw this, as they felt that Alec was crazy.
"What the hell is that idiot doing? Ah! He is wasting ingredients."
"Hahaha… looks like he's just a clown."
"That's right. Each medicinal ingredient requires a different temperature and heating time, so for him to put it all in at the same time is like giving up."
"I thought the owner of Anaconda Flame would bring some surprises, it seems I was wrong."
"Sigh… what a waste, it seems like the result of this competition is out, Radius will definitely win."
Radius suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahahaha… I thought you knew a little about medicinal preparation knowledge, but maybe I was wrong. You are just an idiot."
Hearing that, Alec glanced at Radius, his eyes were extremely calm, without any worry or fear.
"Radius, the competition is not over yet, you don't need to worry about me. On the contrary, you should take care of yourself."
"Even though this medicine is only a 1-star medicine, the difficulty of refining it is close to that of 2-star medicines."
"As far as I can see, you're just a 1-star Pharmacist Enchanter, right?"
Hearing Alec's voice filled with contempt, in particular, Alec emphasized the last sentence, making Radius frown angrily: "Good! Then let me see what you can do."
Radius also raised his hands, he muttered incantations, then, a magic circle appeared below his cauldron.
Immediately afterwards, a fire broke out, enveloping the entire cauldron inside.
Radius frowned at the fire. He tried to use magic to control the fire to his will.
"Hahaha… I thought the genius Pharmacist Enchanter here would possess an Essence Flame, or at least you would possess a Beast Flame." Alec laughed loudly.
"But you ended up using a mediocre Magic Flame. Watching you try to control the flame, I feel a bit embarrassed for the other Pharmacist Enchanters."
"You…" Radius was angry, but he had to restrain himself because right now he needed to concentrate on adjusting the fire.
Besides, he needed to accurately time the ingredients inside.
Alec smiled disdainfully, then waved his hands, the fiery python seemed to understand what it needed to do.
It immediately rushed inside the cauldron, which meant that the cauldron was being heated from the inside out.
"Oh my God! He's really crazy."
"Yes, he is crazy. If he does this, all the ingredients will be burned."
"Stupid! So stupid! It's better to give those ingredients to the trainee Pharmacist Enchanters to use instead of wasting it on him."
"I think it's better to announce the results from now on. Damn it! I don't want to see this dirty scene anymore."
Alec glanced at the crowd that was cursing him, and insulting him. However, he smiled confidently, while muttering in his heart : 'Huh! You idiots, open your eyes wide and look at the miracle I created.'
Lathel saw that Alec's actions were making everyone angry but he did not think that Alec was stupid.
On the contrary, he felt that Alec was about to flex and shine brightly.
"That boy knows the ancient refining method." Suddenly, Cauldron's voice rang in his head.
"Ancient refining method? What's that?" Lathel asked confusedly.
"It is an ancient method of refining medicinal herbs since ancient times." Cauldron explained: "However, this method is very difficult to use, users also need to satisfy many conditions to be able to use this method."
"And one of the most important conditions is that the person using this method must possess an Essence Flame or Beast Flame."
