The First Heir Chapter 5274
Philip was very modest and did not brag about himself. After all, empty talk was quite unnecessary. Lyle was quite excited to hear Philip’s introduction. He actually felt that Philip was quite to his liking. “Oh, I see.” Chaplin looked down on Philip even more because he did not even dare to say anything about himself. Alton chuckled inwardly. This progress was within his expectations. Alton was aware of Chaplin’s character and knew that Philip would never compromise with him. The interaction between these two people would definitely result in sparks, and Alton could take advantage of the situation and reap some benefits from it. “Well, I think we can put this aside. Let’s start the contest!” At Alton’s command, the contestants went on stage.Alton had prepared all the pill furnaces and herbs for the contest. “Each person will receive two sets of materials. Failure will result in disqualification.” Alton announced the rules of the contest, which were clearly quite la
The First Heir Chapter 5275
Custard could easily make more than 50 pills from one set of materials, which was simply unheard of, so he chose to keep ten pills and hid the rest. He quickly finished using up two sets of materials, leaving 15 pills. Although Custard kept a low profile, he still attracted Chaplin’s attention. He thought that this boy's movements were smooth and fluid, very proper indeed. Chaplin even gained some enlightenment as he watched Custard’s pill-making process. However, the enlightenment was not very profound, so he looked forward to interacting with Custard in private. Time quickly came to an end, and many people were forced to withdraw from the contest. They stood next to their furnaces with remorse and anger. Two sets of materials were simply insufficient. Their failure rate was usually quite high, so this requirement was too steep for them. Pill-making was an expensive business, so ordinary families could hardly support the growth of an alchemist. “Okay, let the remaining

Chaplin paused the progress of the contest and beckoned to Lyle excitedly. Lyle was surprised by this development. He merely made ten pills. “What are you doing? It's scary.” Chaplin's attitude was quite bizarre, and Lyle frowned in dissatisfaction. However, Chaplin was unfazed and accepted Lyle’s admonishment. He had to take this practitioner with great talent under his wing. Most practitioners who wanted to join him were not very talented, so Chaplin never took them seriously. Now that a great talent had finally appeared in front of him, Chaplin’s attitude was completely different. Chaplin spoke to Lyle cautiously, trying to trick Lyle into joining him. However, Lyle never played by the rules. Meanwhile, Philip simply watched without a word. He knew that Lyle would never give in to Chaplin. Sure enough, Lyle sighed impatiently upon hearing Chaplin’s suggestion. “Are you sick? This contest has not reached its end, but you interrupted it so abruptly. Do you even respect
The First Heir Chapter 5277
Custard’s initial plan was to put one more pill than Lyle, but he placed more by mistake, so he was sure to win this round. After all, he was the last contestant, so no one else could surpass him. Chaplin stared at Custard in disbelief and anticipation. He hardly saw any pill-making geniuses, but he bumped into three today. The girl was pretty good but lacking in comparison to the two boys. Custard, the last contestant, was simply incredible. “Custard Clarke?” Chaplin read the name aloud and wondered why he had such a strange name. “Sorry, there was a mistake. It's Gustard Clarke." Custard chose his name because of Philip, so he did not want others to call him by this name. Chaplin nodded at the sight of the more normal name. “This name is very unusual and seems quite domineering, very suitable for pill-making. Why don't you join me as my apprentice? I can take your pill-making achievements to the next level.” Philip laughed at Chaplin’s bragging and thought something was

“Buddy, you have a point. Someone like him who doesn’t respect others doesn’t deserve any respect in return either!” The two started chatting happily. Seeing this, Chaplin was furious. Others simply watched in silence. They knew Chaplin’s identity. Although they were angry at Chaplin's disregard, no one dared to say a word. Chaplin had been ignoring their presence, even verbally humiliating them. So what if he could not produce so many pills? They had no right to be so arrogant! Although they were angry, they could only choose to timidly avoid this powerful existence. Many people were unfazed and still hoped to become Chaplin’s servant. After all, working for a level-five alchemist was something to be proud of. Only Lyle and Custard were nonchalant. “Okay, let’s allow Philip to say a few words. What do you think of everyone's performance and these two arrogant newcomers?” Seeing that things were not optimistic, Alton tried to shift the attention to Philip. After a

Custard was unhappy to hear everyone speaking ill of his mentor. He stepped forward and said, “Stop making wild guesses. Philip is my mentor. There’s no point in saying anything else.” Everyone was stunned to hear that. With that confirmation, it meant that Philip was much better than that level-five alchemist. Chaplin scowled darkly, surprised to hear that Custard was Philip's apprentice. He was furious when he realized that Philip did not say a word when he invited Custard to become his apprentice. Philip did it on purpose to embarrass him. The more Chaplin thought about it, the angrier he became, and he wished he could kill Philip. Lyle, on the other hand, had a different thought. In his opinion, Custard was very strong, and his ability had exceeded his expectations. At least, Lyle believed that he could not surpass Custard easily. After much deliberation, Chaplin decided to focus on Lyle. “Lyle, don't tell me you’re Philip's apprentice too,” Chaplin said to Lyle cau
The First Heir Chapter 5280
“Besides, a status as the first apprentice of a level-five alchemist is more than anyone can hope for.” Although Chaplin had accepted many students over the years, they were merely students in name. Only the best people could get the title of his apprentice. The position of first apprentice had always been vacant. After all, he wanted to reserve this position for the most talented genius. Sure enough, he met this genius today. “I see, that sounds really exciting!” Lyle said with a smile. Just when Chaplin thought Lyle was going to say yes, Lyle turned to Philip. “I want to become your apprentice. Will you accept me?” Lyle looked at Philip expectantly as if waiting for his decision.Philip, who was watching the excitement, was stunned. He did not expect the focus to be on him now. “What are you saying? Isn’t Chaplin going to accept you as his apprentice?” Philip was confused. This guy was causing him so much trouble when he had nothing to do with this. Philip could alre
The First Heir Chapter 5281
Lyle's talent could be considered weak among Custard's siblings. He would even be seen as a hindrance to them. Custard vaguely remembered that the brother with the poorest talent made 20 pills with one set of materials in one go, but he was ridiculed by the others for such a bad record. Therefore, Lyle was nothing worth mentioning, and Custard was not keen about having him join them at all. “But I don’t have any plans of accepting another apprentice. Even if I did, I don’t have time to teach him,” Philip said helplessly. Indeed, Philip was so busy at both ends that he had no time to teach a newcomer. Even the people under him could not spare the time. Lyle had learned alchemy and had his own method of making pills. Thus, Philip had to make him forget everything and instill new knowledge in him. The whole process was very lengthy, and Philip had no time to waste. “Name your conditions. I can do whatever you want,” Lyle said anxiously, afraid that Philip would not change his

Seeing the woman’s horror, Philip scratched his head awkwardly. He did not expect that her reaction would be so intense. “Don't worry, I'm not a good person.” After saying that, Philip sat down nonchalantly as if he was not worried about this powerful woman. Seeing Philip’s disregard for her, the woman was so angry that she could barely speak.“As you can see, I’m one of those humans,” Philip introduced himself. Philip had nothing to hide. His identity was no secret. “So, you’re one of those disgusting humans. You look quite strong. Since you found me, I’ll accept my fate. Just kill me if you want. There’s no need to insult me any further.” This woman was quite interesting. She jerked her chin up as if she was ready to let Philip kill her. Philip sighed at her reaction. Why was someone so eager to die? “I don’t want to kill you. I’m just curious about you. I just arrived at Deadly Arena recently,” Philip said to the other party sincerely. He was very curious about the

“You’re right, someone is controlling these beasts behind the scenes. Although I don’t know if the culprit is a powerful beast or a guild, they're not to be trifled with.” Philip did not hide this information but asked his men to take action. Since they were already here, they had to ensure their safety. No one would be exempted if anything happened. “You can join in the fight, but don’t try too hard. Just kill a few beasts and wait until I get to the bottom of this,” Philip said to his people. He was afraid that his men would work too hard but end up with nothing. Everyone nodded solemnly at Philip’s instructions. They quickly joined the battlefield and casually swung their weapons around, killing the arrogant beasts. Due to their strength, they easily crushed the beasts without much effort. As the fight reached its peak, Philip observed the source of the beast stampede. “Do you see that? The beasts are coming from that direction, and they’re clearly well-organized and d
The First Heir Chapter 5744
Philip noticed the change and frowned at the mysterious man, whose expression changed drastically. “This is bad. I’ve never heard this alarm before.” After saying this, he invited Philip to go with him to Deadly Arena to find out what happened. They arrived at Deadly Arena and saw everyone staring ahead nervously as if waiting for someone to speak. Philip’s guild members noticed his return and approached him nervously. Aslan ran up to Philip worriedly. “Philip, I asked around and found something wrong. Deadly Arena is a dangerous place because it’s situated next to the beast forest. This situation has happened from time to time in the past, but no one was bothered. They’d even organize teams to hunt the beasts and Deadly Arena would provide rewards for this.” Philip roughly understood the situation from Aslan’s explanation. Since Deadly Arena had been managing this place for so long, they had taken responsibility for the safety issue. Once the beasts appeared, they would ensu

Argent thought he had come up with a good plan to set Philip up, but he was the fool who was kept in the dark in the end. Philip smiled at Argent’s angry departure and invited the mysterious man to his room. Although Philip chatted with him earlier, he did not know much about him. Philip could tell that the man had concealed his true appearance. Philip was curious to see what would happen. The mysterious man noticed Philip’s anticipation but simply stared at him in silence. Philip wanted to know his identity and purpose for coming here. “I really think highly of you. It’d be best if you could join me.” He knew that Philip would not give in so easily, so his rationality told him to give up. “It’s impossible for me to join you, but I’m curious about your situation. I believe you have a grudge against that guy or you wouldn’t resent him so much.” Philip smiled at the guy. He knew that the grudge between the two was very deep. The mysterious man was surprised that Philip
The First Heir Chapter 5742
In Argent’s opinion, Philip was a prideful person and would never accept this proposal. “Of course, you have the right to refuse. I just want to see what you think.” The mysterious man smiled at Philip brightly as if he did not mind Philip’s rejection.Seeing the mysterious man’s attitude, Argent was afraid that his plan would fail. Philip was not a fool. He could tell at a glance that the two people in front of him were not on the same side. Everyone had their own agendas. “In that case, I have to refuse. I’m sorry, but I’m used to leading a carefree life. Besides, I have my own force, so I won’t join other teams.” A trace of regret flashed in the other party's eyes. He was surprised to hear that Philip was capable enough to form a team of his own. “I’m surprised that you’re so strong at such a young age. In that case, I won’t make things difficult for you. Maybe we can become friends instead.” The mysterious man quickly made small talk with Philip. He clearly had some idea
The First Heir Chapter 5741
Most people would be freaked out at the sight of his face. He took out a photo from his pocket and held it in his hand angrily. “Argent, you've enjoyed your life long enough. It’s time to get what you deserve.” The mysterious man smiled cruelly with obvious hatred for Argent. This whole incident had nothing to do with Philip at all. Philip was simply a pitiful pawn in these people’s hands. Philip never dreamed that someone would target him for no reason. He just wanted to improve his strength. He could not care less about what other people thought of him.… Time passed quickly. The next day, Philip did not expect these people to come after him so soon. He just wanted to have a good rest and find a suitable place to settle down, but these people were as annoying as pesky flies. “Philip, get out here at once. I want to see how strong you are. How dare you show off in front of me?” Argent yelled at Philip’s door in disdain. His right hand was bandaged tightly as if he was still
The First Heir Chapter 5740
The mysterious man forced himself to contain his anger and smile at Argent. Argent knew that he had to stop asking for more. At this point, what was the most important? “I can give you Philip’s address, and we can deal with him tomorrow morning. If you teach him a good lesson, I’m sure he’ll listen to you,” Argent said smugly. His plan was simple. He wanted to use the other party to deal with Philip. Philip had messed with him earlier and crippled his right hand. He would have died if he had not stopped the bleeding in time. Therefore, the grudge between him and Philip was so deep that he could not wait to rip Philip into pieces. Argent and the mysterious man who refused to reveal his name quickly came up with a plan. “In that case, I’ll see you again tomorrow morning. I hope you won't let me down.” After saying this, the mysterious man zoomed into the distance and soon disappeared. Seeing the other party’s hasty retreat, Argent was full of disdain. “Hehe, you think too hig

“Wow, you guys are so generous to send me such a precious gift this time. Tell me more about the deal you want to discuss with me. If it’s up to my expectations, I can consider it.” Argent's mood changed for the better. He smiled brightly and did not consider other possibilities. He seemed to have forgotten the conflict and resentment he had toward Philip. “We know that a young heroic man has appeared in Deadly Arena this time. We’re very interested in him and have decided to recruit him. I heard that you fought him before. I wonder if he's as powerful as I imagined.” The other party did not introduce himself but looked at Argent with a smile. Argent scowled. He thought that this matter was over, but this guy brought it up again. He was obviously trying to belittle him. “Hehe, let’s forget it. I don’t have much of an opinion about Philip. He’s just an average person, nothing worth mentioning.” Argent was afraid of exposing his shame, so he tried to tarnish Philip’s reputati
The First Heir Chapter 5738
After confirming that he could leave safely, Argent ran away quickly, unwilling to stay a second longer. Philip was so terrifying that he wanted to keep his distance from him. Argent simply wanted to rob Philip of his treasures, but he was seriously injured instead. He could not accept it. Argent quickly ran back home. He had settled down with his family after such a long time. Given his strength, no one refused his requests. Argent’s family members simply wanted to follow someone strong, so they did not mind doing anything. In the meantime, an uninvited guest appeared at Argent’s home. He did not make an appointment with Argent in advance, so Argent did not know him. When Argent returned home in a mess, they bumped into each other. “I’m surprised to see the head of the family looking so miserable. I’m here at the right time.” The man stared at Argent mockingly as if he was enjoying the show. Argent was annoyed by his reaction, angry that an outsider had seen him in his most mi
