The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

When Su Jingzhen said this, Xuening also smiled and said, “I’ve been learning alchemy with my grandfather since I was young.”

“However, Xuening could see that Su Jingzhen’s alchemy skills hadn’t been developed for too long.”

“Now, Master Su’s alchemy skills are almost on par with mine, which is quite embarrassing for me.”

From Xuening’s perspective, this was indeed the truth.

At this time, Feng Qingya laughed again and said, “You two don’t need to be so humble. I was worried earlier, afraid that we would really lose this alchemy competition. But after seeing your alchemy skills, I’m filled with confidence.”

Feng Qingya’s words were sincere.

From her perspective, Su Jingzhen could easily refine high-grade elixirs. Moreover, she knew that Su Jingzhen’s success rate was terrifyingly high.

And Xuening could refine superior-grade elixirs.

It was worth noting that in Qingzhou, a fourth-grade alchemist was already considered precious.

In Feng Qingya’s view, as long as Su Jingzhen and Xuening could work together in harmony, their combination would be unbeatable.

Before Feng Qingya’s words fell, Xuening’s gaze suddenly turned to her.

“Sister Qingya, could you reveal what kind of elixir we need to refine this time, or which direction we should strive for to truly help you?”

As soon as Xuening spoke, everyone’s gaze in the wooden house turned to Feng Qingya.

Even Su Jingzhen was curious.

Since they had already found their partner, he believed that Feng Qingya should reveal the information.

After all, the alchemy competition was approaching, and if they didn’t have any information, it wouldn’t be good.

Everything needed to be clear about the direction of effort to achieve more success.

Feng Qingya nodded, “According to my understanding, the alchemy competition will be divided into three processes this time!”

“The first stage is an open selection, where all the young masters of the Feng family, including those from the collateral lines, can recommend their own alchemists to participate.”

“The first round is a free-for-all, where all alchemists can showcase their skills, and the top-ranked ones will enter the second round. The number of participants in the second round will be determined by the number of participants in the first round.”

Su Jingzhen and Xuening nodded in understanding. This was a familiar format for the Alchemy Competition.

Feng Qingya continued, “The second stage will also be determined by the number of alchemists. If there are many alchemists who enter the second round, we will select the top ten through the same process. These ten alchemists will enter the third round.”

Feng Qingya’s expression turned serious, filled with anticipation. “In the third round, the Feng family will provide a fourth-grade elixir recipe, along with the corresponding medicinal materials. There will be three sets of materials, and the recipe will be released on the spot, with no prior preparation. Only three people will be selected in this round!”

Feng Qingya’s eyes sparkled with expectation. “My requirement for the two of you may be a bit high, but you must make it to the final three! Only then will I have the opportunity to gain some authority and control over my own destiny!”

Su Jingzhen and the others fell into deep thought. The first two rounds were familiar, but the third round was a game-changer. They knew that the competition would be extremely fierce, as anyone who entered the third round would have the opportunity to obtain a fourth-grade elixir recipe for free.

Fourth-grade alchemists were extremely rare in Qingzhou, and fourth-grade elixir recipes were equally rare and precious. It was unlikely that many alchemists could resist the temptation.

After a long silence, Dantai Mingjing sighed, “It seems that this Alchemy Competition is going to be extremely intense.”

Su Jingzhen asked, “In the third round, will Xuening and I be counted as one person or two?”

Feng Qingya laughed, “In the cultivation world, alchemists having assistants is extremely normal. Whether it’s one assistant or multiple assistants, it’s still counted as one quota. So, Master Su doesn’t need to worry. Moreover, I think that with Xuening’s alchemy skills, you won’t need to provide assistance in the first two rounds. In my plan, Master Su is supposed to be the ace in the hole for the third round.”

Su Jingzhen nodded in understanding. This was a reasonable request.

Xuening also nodded, “I think I understand. But Sister Qingya, do you have any information about the specific elixir recipe for the third round? You don’t need to give it to us directly. Just give us a direction.”

Feng Qingya thought for a moment before responding, “I naturally can’t reveal the specific elixir recipe. But you two can focus on the direction of healing and detoxification. The Breaking Through Adversity Pill will likely be the key.”

She paused before continuing, “However, this is only the information I’ve gathered. The specifics will depend on the Alchemy Competition on that day. Perhaps they’ll change the rules halfway through. It’s getting harder for me to gather information from the Feng family.”

When Feng Qingya said this, Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat.

He thought to himself: No wonder Feng Qingya only gave him the Breaking Through Adversity Pill when he asked for a second-grade elixir recipe. It seemed that she had already planned this out back then.

Su Jingzhen was once again impressed by Feng Qingya’s farsightedness.

As he thought about this, Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped another beat. He suddenly remembered another crucial piece of information!

Feng Qingya had just told them to focus on the direction of healing and detoxification. And when he asked her about The Pink Poisonous Woman, she seemed to be quite pleased.

She had even said that Su Jingzhen had another reason to help her.

Su Jingzhen’s heart raced again: “Could it be related to The Pink Poisonous Woman’s poison…”
