The magnificent Cathay, where diversity was welcomed.
Regardless of the outcome of this competition, whether Cathay or Emsgate took the win, losing to someone more skilled was not a big deal. After all, one had to have the courage to admit one’s failure. However, that was not equivalent to allowing others to trample on or insult oneself.
Dario’s mockeries poked at the sore spot of the alternative medicine community like a sharp blade. So if favonovel.com won the championship, it would mercilessly crush the passionate hearts ofthe new generation of Cathay’s alternative medical practitioners.
How could they strive forward without passion?
How could they find their way without hope?
From this perspective alone, Dario had completed half of Emsgate’s plan to ruin the alternative medicine community in Cathay.
The remaining task was to win the competition and become the new Holy Doctor. By then, they could build a conventional bond with the Sixteen Major Forces of Cathay and make the path for Cathay’s future three generations of medical practitioners more challenging and hard for them to improve their skills.
When the first failed pill was poured out from Matthew’s elixir furnace, there were two extremely different emotions from the crowd.
One side was devastated, while the other was extremely proud, especially the elders of Emsgate’s hidden sects and the seniors of the Emsgate Herbalist Association. Their joyful expressions seemed as if they had already won the competition.
Although it was said that nine pills were the ultimate number in refining pills, only a handful of people in the world would achieve such a level.
So could Matthew turn the tide?
Seeing Matthew’s achievement, Matilda was also filled with joy and came to taunt Ronald, “Words won’t win the game. Don’t you think so too, Mr. Schmidt?”
Although Roland wasn’t in a good mood, favonovel.com couldn’t help but retort, “Hmph, how dare you dabble so much when you don’t even have my skill set? Talk to me when you can achieve the same results as me. You can’t even win against me, yet you act arrogant.”
Matilda did not expect Roland could still say such foul words at such a moment. “You… Anyway, Emsgate has won this round.”
Since favonovel.com was inferior to the other party in a verbal battle, favonovel.com could only bring up favonovel.com teammate’s achievements to intimidate the other.
At this moment, Lola, who had been silent, suddenly opened favonovel.com eyes.
Matthew never disappoints!
After a faint smile, favonovel.com spoke. “You have lost!”
Once Lola’s words fell, another pill rolled out from Matthew’s basketball-sized furnace. It was round and smooth with a bright and lustrous color. Then came the second and third until the referee emptied the elixir furnace.
When all the pills hidden inside had fallen onto the round plate on the table, exclamations from the audience filled the air.
“Oh my god, am I seeing things? Are there actually ten pills in that furnace, including the first failed pill?”
“How is that possible? Didn’t they say that one can only produce a maximum of nine pills in one furnace?”
Before the audience could recover from their shock, the referee poured out nine exquisite-looking pills from the Rejuvenation Pill furnace and one black failed pill.
“Matthew Larson, nine Rejuvenation Pills, nine Opening Spirit Pills, near perfect in both efficacy and quality. As for this black pill, it’s just residue!”
The participants’ results were displayed on the screen, but when the referee finished checking Matthew’s pills, a strong sense of surprise overwhelmed him, and that emotion pushed favonovel.com to announce the results directly.
His voice passed through the microphone and spread throughout the entire venue.
In an instant, the venue quieted down. The next second, cheers erupted like thunder, resounding through the sky.
“Well done. Prove those arrogant b*stards wrong!”
“We won! We won!”
“Nine perfect pills. That‘s an absolute win! Hahaha!”
Contrary to the audience’s attitude, the group from Emsgate could not accept the results.
Dario’s first reaction was that Matthew must have cheated.
Otherwise, how could Matthew successfully refine nine ultimate pills?
That must be it! Matthew must have cheated!
