At that moment, the other five mountain owners started fidgeting. Some gazed at the primary chief senior, and others fixed their eyes at the huge vases, appearing eager across the board.
"Esteemed primary chief senior, I'm willing to give it a go," a mountain owner hastened to beg the primary chief senior for pellets on seeing the marvelous effects.
However, before the primary chief senior responded to his request, the short-tempered tertiary chief senior struck in, "You just refused to try the pellets when we asked you. Well, were you deaf?"
The mountain owner went embarrassed forthwith and smiled obsequiously.
"Of course. Come and get your fair shares," the primary chief senior said, beaming radiantly.
Then the rest of the mountain owners scrambled to get the pellets.
"Bang!" A sound of crash went off — two mountain owners dashed toward the vases in different directions and knocked onto one another with their eyes fixed on the vases only.
Then they stepped back a bit, paused abruptly, and rushed toward the vases again.
After the five mountain owners got one pellet respectively, the primary chief senior asked the other three mountain seniors who tried the pellets in the beginning, "What's the wait? Come and get your pellets!"
"Aha? There are more for us?" The three mountain owners asked in bewilderment.
"Didn't you say we are supposed to take one pellet only?" They thought.
"You only tried the pellets without getting your fair shares," the primary chief senior said.
"Thank you. Thank you very much, Esteemed primary chief senior!" The three mountain owners extended their gratitude to the primary chief senior.
While they were thrilled to the brim, the other five mountain owners were felling deeply remorseful of their previous underestimation of the pellets. Otherwise, they would have stood out as well and been granted a chance to have a go of the pellets first. In that case, they would have had one more pellet.
However, the most pressing matter was testing the effect of the pellets on themselves. The five mountain owners, struggling to contain the impulse to slap themselves, took the pellets and started with their cultivation.
In the meantime, the other three who got one more pellet didn't do the same. Each put away the pellet with extreme care and caution and thanked the primary chief senior again.
If the primary chief senior had produced the pellets himself, he would have felt much delighted. However, he didn't. What a shame!
On thinking that himself assumed the credit of Lin Xiao, the primary chief senior felt rather ill at ease and extend his apology to Lin Xiao furtively, "Junior Martial Uncle, I apologize for stealing your limelight today. I assure you that I'll make it up for you in the future!"
Seeing the primary chief senior making no reaction to their gratitude, the three mountain owners didn't dare to bother him but stand aside instead.
At that moment, the vast congregation hall was immersed in silence.
The other five mountain owners soon broke the ice with their compliments to the surprisingly effective pellets.
"Good lord! By no stretch of the imagination could I ever expect the Most Refined Royal Pellets worked so well for warriors at the level of the Refining Divine Realm! Though I still remained in the same realm, my martial competence has just improved to a great degree!" one mountain owner exclaimed.
"Hahaha, I made a breakthrough! It had been one year for me to be stuck at the peak of the sixth level of the Refining Divine Realm with no sign of advancement. I just made it! These pellets are undoubtedly marvelous! Amazing!" the other cried in jubilance.
"Are these truly pellets catering to the Regimen Realm?" one asked.
"It had never crossed my mind that there existed such powerful pellets at the Regimen Realm. It would be great if I had taken them at that stage!" one sighed.
"Spot-on! I do feel tempted to restart my cultivation with the Regimen Realm!" the last one echoed.
After the five mountain owners concluded their cultivation to bring out the effects of the Most Refined Royal Pellets, they all marveled at the miracle in awe.
"Good. Now that you have verified the effects of the Most Refined Royal Pellets, lets' move on with the next point. You return to your own mountains and summon your disciples. Then we will make all the disciples gathered together at the great square to get their pellets," the primary chief senior bade.
"Esteemed primary chief senior, does it mean that each disciple is entitled to a pellet?" a mountain owner asked in bewilderment.
The primary chief senior nodded and said, "That goes without saying. As you said, these are merely pellets for the Regimen warriors."
While saying that, the primary chief senior cast a glimpse at the other vase.
Right then, all the mountain owners started to breathe heavily and wondered, "Could it be said that the pellets in the other vase are more powerful? Given the Most Refined Royal Pellets, which were merely pellets for the Regimen Realm, were of such incredible benefit to us, then the other vase of pellets..."
They even dared not to go further with their speculation.
"Esteemed primary chief senior, on it! I'll ensure that all my disciples arrive at the great square at the highest speed," one of the mountain owners soon came back to himself and said. Hardly had his voice faded away, he already dashed out of the congregation hall.
On seeing that, the other mountain owners, having no time to say anything to the primary chief senior, darted out of the congregation hall like bombs.
"Given that we were so fortunate to have been given an extra pellet, there might be further benefits for us if our disciples can beat the others to it," the three mountain seniors wondered.
