Divine War Pill Emperor

After being berated by Jiang Chen, Yuan Sheng and his group were finally furious.

Normally, they should have been the ones provoking Jiang Chen. Instead, he had thoroughly humiliated them with just a few words.

That condescending attitude made Yuan Sheng suddenly leap out from the crowd.

He roared, "Jiang Chen, you’re too arrogant!"

"We haven’t even competed, and you’re already running your mouth! Enough talk. Let’s see you back it up."

He couldn’t stand Jiang Chen’s venomous tongue any longer. If this continued, he’d be verbally torn to shreds before they could even start the Alchemy competition.

Yuan Sheng’s junior brothers, along with a few others he had roped into challenging Jiang Chen’s Alchemy Skill, all began to clamor as well.

The crowd, too, was eager to see what Jiang Chen would do.

Even Master Qin, the President of the Alchemy Master Guild, was watching from an inconspicuous spot in the crowd.

He seemed quite curious about Jiang Chen.

To say nothing of Yuan Sheng’s master, Elder Xiao Gu, who stood among the crowd with an incredibly dark expression.

If Jiang Chen were to make a move, it would be the spectacle everyone was waiting for.

After all, everyone wanted to see Jiang Chen’s true abilities.

Looking at Yuan Sheng, who had been so easily provoked by just a few casual words, Jiang Chen shook his head slightly.

’A true master is not so easily provoked.’

’Jiang Chen himself would never get angry over a few words.’

’The contrast revealed Yuan Sheng and his group’s weak dispositions; their future potential was limited.’

As if determined to infuriate them to death, he said coolly, "You? And the rest of you? You want to compete with me in Alchemy Skill?"

"Forget it. It would be too embarrassing for me."

"I didn’t come here to compete in Alchemy Skill with small fry like you. I came to tell you a fact."

"I am a summit whose peak you can never hope to see. Even if you were eagles, you could not fly over a mountain as high as me."

"Besides, in my eyes, all of you are nothing but dregs."

Not only did Jiang Chen refuse their challenge, but he also attacked them again and again with incredibly sharp words.

Yuan Sheng and his group nearly coughed up blood in fury at his words.

Jiang Chen had utterly disdained them.

They never imagined Jiang Chen could be so arrogant—his conceit knew no bounds.

Everyone present who heard him felt Jiang Chen was getting way ahead of himself.

His arrogance was over the top.

After all, arrogance is usually backed by real skill. But in everyone’s eyes, Jiang Chen had none.

Therefore, his current arrogance was a transgression.

Yuan Sheng, nearly overcome with rage, pointed at Jiang Chen and yelled, "Do you dare or not? Just give us a straight answer!"

"Talk is cheap. We can’t see any of this supposed great ability of yours, so we’re not convinced."

"That’s right! We’ll see after we compete. Stop bullshitting!"

Faced with their aggressive challenge, Jiang Chen finally let out a sigh.

He waved his hand. "Fine. Since you insist on competing with me."

"I’ll first ask you a few questions. We’ll see if you’re even qualified to compete with me."

"If you can’t even pass my little test, then you should all just go home. Let’s not waste everyone’s time."

Hearing that Jiang Chen wanted to test them, Yuan Sheng and his group laughed in fury.

They were finally beginning to understand just how conceited Jiang Chen was.

After all, in their eyes, the man was utterly worthless.

Yuan Sheng and the others shouted, "Alright, if you want to test us, we accept!"

"But on one condition." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

As he agreed, Yuan Sheng thought of a brilliant way to humiliate Jiang Chen.

He declared, "If we answer your questions correctly, will you dare to get on the ground and roll all the way from here to the main gates of the Alchemy Master Guild hall?"

What?

Yuan Sheng’s words sent the entire scene into an uproar.

He actually wanted to make Jiang Chen roll on the ground all the way out of the Alchemy Master Guild’s main hall.

For anyone, this would be an incredible humiliation.

If they could answer his questions, Jiang Chen would have to roll away. He would lose an incredible amount of face and would never be able to show his face in the Alchemy Master Guild again.

It was an extremely vicious move.

Simple and crude, but a vicious way to humiliate someone nonetheless.

Jiang Chen froze for a moment.

He fell into thought.

He glanced at the distance to the Alchemy Master Guild’s main gate. It was at least three thousand meters.

It wasn’t a short distance by any means, and to roll it would be even farther.

"What’s wrong? Scared to agree? You only want to test us, but you won’t dare to accept a wager yourself?"

"If you don’t have the guts to agree, you can start rolling right now!"

Yuan Sheng and his group sneered.

They tried every trick to taunt Jiang Chen.

In their hearts, they were certain that Jiang Chen would lose.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly. ’This is getting more and more interesting,’ he thought.

’It’s as fun as an adult playing a game with children.’

He simply declared, "Fine, I accept. If you can answer my questions, I will roll from here to the gates of the Alchemy Master Guild hall."

"HAHAHAHA......"

Yuan Sheng roared with laughter.

"Good, very good! As long as you dare to agree."

"So, shall we begin?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

Then he said, "There are too many of you to challenge me one by one. I don’t have that much time. Pick one representative."

"I’ll pose the questions, and your representative will answer. If they can’t answer, then all of you will roll out the gate."

At that, Yuan Sheng and his group rubbed their hands together, brimming with confidence.

They were about to witness the sight of Jiang Chen rolling on the ground.

If Jiang Chen had any sense of shame, he would surely resign from the Alchemy Master Guild after rolling away.

That was precisely their goal.

In the end, Yuan Sheng and the dozen or so other Alchemists all began to confer.

They chose Yuan Sheng to be their representative.

"Jiang Chen, I’ll be the one. I represent them. I will answer your questions."

He was brimming with confidence. After all, as Elder Xiao Gu’s apprentice, he had learned seventy to eighty percent of his master’s skills, which was considered quite formidable.

Basically, no Alchemist in Hanwu City could stump him.

He puffed out his chest and stood proudly.

Ready to welcome the dawn of his victory.

Jiang Chen chuckled to himself.

He spoke directly, "Alright, let me ask you a question."

"What is the use of a Xili Flower?"

What?

Yuan Sheng froze when he heard Jiang Chen’s direct question.

He knew of the Xili Flower Jiang Chen mentioned—it was one of the Alchemy Materials—but he couldn’t for the life of him remember its use.

In fact, many people didn’t know.

And even those who did know didn’t dare speak up.

Yuan Sheng stood there, dumbstruck. A long moment passed, but no matter how hard he thought, he simply could not recall the purpose of the Xili Flower.

’It must be used for refining some kind of Elixir.’

All eyes were on Yuan Sheng.

As Yuan Sheng remained silent, unable to answer, the atmosphere grew increasingly awkward.
