He would be more confident about breaking through to level six supreme saint if he had the help of a Pristine Spirit Pill. With that thought in mind, he flew up to the sky and came face to face with Emery."Are you serious when you said you're willing to put up the alchemical recipe and pills as a bet?" asked Severin with bright eyes.'What a shameless jerk! He didn't even give me a time of day when I gave him the letter of challenge, but he changed his mind the instant I said I'm willing to put up a bet?' thought Emery with gritted teeth.Her face darkened again as she could not help but feel Severin was deliberately mocking her! Driven by anger, she said coldly, "Not only the Pristine Spirit Pill and the sixth-grade high-rank alchemical pill recipe, but as long as you defeat me, I will become your servant and do your bidding without any complaints!"After a pause, she added, "But if you lose, you will step down from your position as core disciple! Do you dare to accept the challe
This competition not only caused a sensation among the disciples, but also attracted the attention of many elders.First, Oskar broke precedent by making Severin the sixth core disciple, prompting many elders to go to Oskar to kick up a fuss. After all, since the founding of the Grandiuno Sect nearly ten thousand years ago, there had never been a sixth core disciple. Everyone was used to the status quo of only five core disciples. Thus, the sudden appearance of a sixth core disciple caused a huge sensation in the sect.Later, after Ferland returned from the sacred lake, these elders gradually realized that Severin had extraordinary qualifications and possessed some top-level Divine Constitution, and they reluctantly accepted his identity as a core disciple.Much later, Severin managed to defeat Shyam, the elite disciple ranked tenth on the list of geniuses, in just a few moves. That made him famous across the sect since Severin was only a level three supreme saint while Shyam was a
Ouro fumed after facing opposition and glared at the man. "Easy for you to say, Shannon. But are will anyone from the Seventh Mountain be able to hold out against me in the Starry Sky Battlespace?"The man who was addressed as Shannon sneered at that remark and responded, "The Seventh Mountain has no prodigies." Following a pause for dramatic effect, he added with a smirk, "But I've heard about Severin, the core disciple from Pearl Light Isle. He's gained fame in the sect, and news of his upcoming contest against Emery is making its rounds throughout the entire sect.""He'll have a chance to shine in the Starry Sky Battlespace next year if his talents are nurtured well!" remarked one of the other elders after hearing Shannon's remarks. The peak masters were already well-acquainted with Severin, especially after every he was the talk of the Grandiuno Sect.Upon hearing the news, Oskar grinned smugly and seemed pleased at himself for unearthing a gem like Severin. "Absolutely. Severin
Severin was blissfully unaware of the fact that his acceptance to compete with Emery had spread like wildfire within the Grandiuno Sect. It was no exaggeration to say that the news was dropped on everyone like a bombshell.After accepting Emery's challenge, he returned directly to Pearl Light Isle and entered the courtyard. Severin had not concealed her spiritual energy when Emery issued the challenge, and her voice reached everyone on Pearl Light Isle. Upon entering the courtyard, Wuhlricht and others immediately surrounded Severin.Wuhlricht looked at Severin with a weathered old face and said solemnly, "You shouldn't have agreed, Severin. As far as I know, Emery is the direct apprentice of the Sixth Mountain's peak master, Daniella Wyan, and she's a very talented alchemist. We don't doubt your talent at all, and we think that you're much stronger than her; however, your reputation has also grown by leaps and bounds in the six months since you joined our sect. If you defeat Emery,
Severin, for example, arrived at Bleurealm's Nontwo City as a fifth-grade high-rank alchemist. Eventually, he discovered a sixth-grade alchemy recipe. Despite wasting so much of time and materials in his numerous failed attempts, he was still unable to make any progress.A breakthrough for an alchemist was no easy feat, and was vastly different from the stages within a level for attainment, for an abundance of materials were needed for practice. It was only when Severin ascended the Alchemy Tower that he broke free of that predicament and reached the sixth level, for the simulation that tested his abilities to refine pills had allowed him to accumulate experience with sixth-grade pills. That was why he was able to successfully became a sixth-grade alchemist.Severin's reassurance seemed to have an effect as the worries on everyone's faces began to dissipate.However, Felipe remained firm in his opinion that Severin should have refrained from accepting the challenge and ought to have
Seven days later, Severin's time in seclusion had ended. Once the sun peeked over the horizon and marked the start of a new day, he got dressed and freshened up before heading out to the courtyard.Wuhlricht and others were already there, apparently having waited for some time. When they spotted Severin's arrival, Diane came up to him and adjusted his clothes a little. She flashed a smile to him and said, "Ready to go, Severin?"Severin grinned and nodded. "Yeah. I'm confident I'll win."The group then rose into the air and transformed into a cascade of rainbow-colored rays as they headed straight for the Alchemy Tower on the Sixth Mountain. Upon reaching the Alchemy Tower, Severin saw thousands of disciples gathered in the area. A chorus of cheers erupted upon his appearance."Look! Severin is here!""I get why our sect leader chose him as the sixth core disciple! I didn't expect him to be that skilled in alchemy!""He's so handsome! He has a divine constitution, and he's just a
The man, Raymond, nodded at Severin after sensing the latter's gaze. The other person, a woman, exuded grace and charm. Clad in a flowing white dress that resembled the petals of a white lotus, the faint scent of orchidaceous fragrance was perceivable even from afar.Severin speculated that the woman was Celeste, and the spectators soon confirmed his suspicions. After Raymond and Celeste made their appearance, a wave of exclamations echoed across the entire open area in front of the Alchemy Tower."Isn't that Raymond?! He's the fourth core disciple!""And that's Celeste, the fifth core disciple!""Wasn't Raymond in seclusion on Phecda Isle? Why has he joined us here today?""Who would've thought that today's contest would draw the attention of two core disciples who rarely make an appearance outside of their islands?"As the disciples on the scene discussed the unexpected arrival of Raymond and Celeste, a perplexed expression unfurled across Emery's face. Though she had no idea w
Severin brought his Dragonstand Furnace. The palm-sized cauldron grew to the size of a millstone as soon as it came into view. The inscriptions engraved on the bronze walls began to light up, and a white flame materialized through Severin's spiritual power. In an instant, the entire cauldron turned a blazing red, and its temperature was hot enough to burn the surrounding air.Once he had done the necessary preparations, Severin glanced at the nearby Emery, who summoned a palm-sized cauldron from her spatial ring as soon as she landed. The purple-hued four-legged cauldron bore faint inscriptions and began to glow radiantly as soon as she channeled her spiritual power in.In less than a minute, the purple cauldron became engulfed in large purple flames, and the energy fluctuations emitted from it was comparable to ninth-grade spiritual equipment. The scorching air waves distorted the surrounding space, surpassing the aura and temperature of Severin's Dragonstand Furnace. Severin could
