Upon seeing everyone’s eyes on her, Feng Jiu curled her lips and smiled slightly, then she bowed to everyone with her hands behind her back. When she spoke, there was a hint of a smile in her voice: “Everyone, let me formally introduce myself, my name is Feng Jiu.”
“Feng Jiu?”
Everyone thought that the name sounded familiar, as if they had heard it somewhere before, but they just couldn’t recall where.
“Where have I heard this name before?” One of the Peak Masters said slightly pensively as he was unable to remember it.
“I think I’ve heard it somewhere before too, but I don’t know who I had heard it from.” Another Peak Master also said and frowned slightly.
The Sect Master also found the name familiar but he just couldn’t remember where he had heard it from.
Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu chuckled and asked: “Sect Master, Peak Masters, did I win this competition?”
Everyone couldn’t care less about who Feng Jiu was when they heard this.. They glanced at each other, and their gazes passed from Bai Qingcheng who was beside herself with fear, to the Pharmacy Division Peak Master who was having a hard time accepting his loss.
They were the only two people in this competition who had something to lose. The Pharmacy Division Peak Master has lost his five hundred year old Seven Star Spirit Grass as a result of losing the competition, and as for Bai Qingcheng, she had lost her whole life…
He was at a loss for words when he heard her question. If Bai Qingcheng really was the Phoenix Star and yet she lost to Feng Jiu and had to be his servant for life, could such a person really be the Phoenix Star?
As far as they know, the Phoenix Star was exceptional in both talent and luck. As the Phoenix Star who would be the ruler of the world, no ordinary people could easily compete against her. What Bai Qingcheng seemed to lack was a bit of luck…
“Master, please announce the winner!” Song Ming said, looking at his Master, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sun Sect. He believed that based on his Master integrity’s, he would deal with this matter fairly.
Upon hearing this, the Sect Master took a deep look at the Pharmacy Division Peak Master and Bai Qingcheng, then he whispered a few words to the other Peak Masters. Finally, he spoke with a voice that contained spiritual energy: “Feng Jiu has won the pill refining competition!”
His voice that contained his spiritual energy spread through the air and entered the ears of every disciple clearly. Everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief, especially the disciples of the Pharmacy Division who shouted in doubt: “How is that possible? How can my Master lose to that kid?”
The Sect Master’s fierce gaze contained coercion as he glanced around, and all of a sudden, everyone calmed down. He retracted his gaze and looked at the Pharmacy Division Peak Master who was standing staring blankly, his eyes fixed on the Barrier Breaking Violet Heart Pill on the jade plate and he asked: “Elder Ye, you’ve lost, do you admit defeat?”
The Pharmacy Division Peak Master returned to his senses and smiled bitterly: “Yes, I have lost, I am convinced.” The young boy’s two sixth order Barrier Breaking Violet Heart Pills were placed in front of him, both the pill grade and the colour were far better than his, how could he not admit defeat?
“Well, it’s good that you’ve admitted defeat.” Feng Jiu squinted with a smile on her face, “It is admirable that you have put in your best effort even though you’ve lost.” Having said that, Feng Jiu patted the Pharmacy Division Peak Master’s shoulder then stepped forward and placed the two pills into a bottle.
When the Pharmacy Division Peak Master heard Feng Jiu’s words, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
It was obviously hard for him to accept, and it also made him feel terrible as he had obviously suffered a great blow. Yet, this young boy had told him that he had tried his best, his words to him about his defeat was admirable.
