After paying respects to the Four Saints, arrangements were made for the members of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect to rest.

After all, they had come from far away. It wasn’t possible to just ask them to start the contest right away. It was more appropriate for them to rest for a day and regain their energy before starting.

The number of people who came from the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect was not large. Apart from a dozen elders, there were over thirty disciples, all of whom were the elite among the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect disciples.

The elders of the Pill Sect led the group from the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect to rest, while the disciples like Fang Lin dispersed.

However, there were many complaints as they had waited for the members of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect for such a long time.

Especially since the people from the Ten- thousand Medicine Sect showed an attitude of arrogance from start to end, which made the disciples of the Pill Sect very uncomfortable.

For his part, Fang Lin didn’t think much of it. After returning to his room, he first took care of the medicinal herbs planted in his courtyard, because he hadn’t been here for half a month.

After that, it was just in time for Xu Shangao, Wu Mengsheng, and others to come to visit Fang Lin.

Fang Lin was very welcoming, and he knew everyone who came: they were all from the group of people who acted together inside the Medicine-Seeking

Peak.

As for Fang Lin’s ability to leave the Demon Suppressing Cave early, Xu Shangao, Wu Mengsheng, and the others were delighted.

While they were all chatting, the topic gradually shifted to the upcoming contest with the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect.

Regarding the arrogant attitude of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect, everyone present felt indignant.

“Brother Fang, this time you’re representing the lower-ranking disciples in the battle against the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect. You must give them a taste of our power and let those people from the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect know how formidable we of the Pill Sect are!” Wu Mengsheng said excitedly.

Xu Shangao furrowed his eyebrows and said, “However, those who came from the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect this time are all elites. The disciples who can represent the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect in the battle are indeed elites among elites. It is said that they have all passed the Alchemist assessment in the Pill Alliance and are authentic Alchemists with ranks.”

At his words, everyone’s spirits sank except for Fang Lin’s, and their expressions became serious.

Only by passing the Alchemist assessment in the Pill Alliance can one be regarded as a real Alchemist; otherwise, one can only be considered a Practitioner Alchemist.

Among the many disciples of the Pill Sect, not a single one of the lower-ranking disciples has truly passed the Alchemist assessment and has a record as an Alchemist in the Pill Alliance. Only a few of the middle-ranking disciples have, and only ten of the upper-ranking disciples have passed the assessment.

As for the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect, it is said that there are several Alchemists of One Cauldron among the lower-ranking disciples. As for the number of real Alchemists among the middle and upper-ranking disciples, it goes without saying.

When compared, the gap between the two sects becomes evident. It’s no wonder that the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect can steadily suppress the Pill

Sect in recent years. The quality of their disciples is simply on a different level.

“It’s said that the one who represents the upper-ranking disciples is one from the Four Elites of Pill Sect, but there’s no exact news on who it is.” Xu Shangao said.

Meng Wuyou nodded and said, “I think it’s Meng Chaoyang. He just reached the peak of Medicine-Seeking Peak and has unmatched prestige. He is also the recipient of the chief’s reward. It is the most appropriate for him to battle both emotionally and logically.”

Fang Lin’s expression suddenly became very strange. Xu Shangao happened to notice and asked him why.

Fang Lin shrugged and said, “Nothing. I just remembered when I reached the peak of Medicine-Seeking Peak, I didn’t even get a fart. On top of that, I was locked up in the Demon Suppressing Cave. The treatment is really different.”

Upon hearing Fang Lin’s grievances, everyone felt helpless. Even though they also felt injustice for Fang Lin, it was something decided by the higher-ups. No matter how dissatisfied they were as disciples, it was useless.

“Brother Fang, take it easy.” Wu Mengsheng persuaded.

Fang Lin didn’t think about this depressing matter anymore and continued to ask, “Is Meng Chaoyang’s mastery in Alchemy Tao the strongest among the Four Elites of the Pill Sect?”

Xu Shangao and Wu Mengsheng both shook their heads. Then Wu Mengsheng said, “The Alchemy Tao skills of the Four Elites of Pill Sect are actually nearly equal. But if you insist on who’s the strongest, I’m afraid it would be that low-profile Ouyang Jing.”

“That’s right, Ouyang Jing is indeed low-key, but his Alchemy Tao skills can be said to be the most outstanding among the Four Elites of Pill Sect.” Xu Shangao said.

Fang Lin stroked his chin, muttering Ouyang Jing’s name to himself.

“Ouyang Jing spends more than half of each year not in Pill Sect, but in the Pill Alliance of Qian Country. He is our Pill Sect’s permanent Alchemist in the Pill Alliance and holds a certain position there.” Wu Mengsheng said.

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin was somewhat surprised. This Ouyang Jing must have real skills if he could maintain a certain position in the Pill Alliance.

“In that case, Ouyang Jing should be the one to fight.” Fang Lin said.

Wu Mengsheng shook his head and said, “Ouyang Jing is not in Pill Sect now.

Even if the chief and others summon him back, it’s uncertain whether Ouyang Jing would be willing to return.”

“What? After getting a position in the Pill Alliance, does Ouyang Jing no longer take the commands of the Pill Sect Chief seriously?” Fang Lin asked curiously.

Wu Mengsheng explained, “It’s not that Ouyang Jing disrespects the chief’s order because of his position in the Pill Alliance, but that Ouyang Jing doesn’t get along with the chief.”

Upon saying that, Wu Mengsheng stopped talking, as if he was being wary of something.

Fang Lin urged, “Well, go on.”

With a distressed face, Wu Mengsheng said, “We disciples don’t dare to casually discuss this matter.”

Fang Lin shrugged and looked at Xu Shangao.

Xu Shangao hesitated for a moment before saying, “It seems that Ouyang Jing had a conflict with the chief’s son. Naturally, the chief sided with his son and suppressed Ouyang Jing. However, Ouyang Jing is very talented. He achieved his current status step by step, and even got a foothold in the Pill Alliance. The chief has no solution to him.”

Fang Lin showed a slight smile and said, “Our chief is really admirable.” Everyone could hear the sarcasm in his words.

Fang Lin disdained the character of Gu Daofeng. Although he was the chief, he couldn’t be impartial, he favored his son, suppressed other geniuses, and wanted to turn the Pill Sect into his own one-man show.

No wonder the Pill Sect has steadily declined these years. It turns out that there are quite a few problems from the top to the bottom.

Of course, these matters don’t concern Fang Lin for now.

“By the way, who is the middle-ranking disciple that’s going into battle?” Fang Lin asked again.

Wu Mengsheng said, “It should be Gu Liuli.”

Fang Lin uttered a sound of acknowledgement. He knew Gu Liuli. She was also one of the people who had ascended the Medicine-Seeking Peak that day. He had seen her once in the Pill Sect’s main hall.

“So what about the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect? Who will they send into battle? Do you guys know?” Fang Lin asked.

Everyone shook their heads. No one knew which three people the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect would send into battle. Even the higher-ups of the Pill Sect were probably guessing at this point.

Fang Lin furrowed his brows. The contest was about to start tomorrow, but at this point they didn’t even know who from the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect would be participating in the contest. This really made people feel unsure.

But of course, Fang Lin wouldn’t be unsure. He didn’t care who the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect was sending into battle.

The next day, the members of the Pill Sect gathered again, and the people from the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect showed up early on the Pill Array..
