The alchemy process has officially begun.

Even knowing that two great figures from the headquarters were watching, Chen Fan’s heart remained calm and undisturbed.

On one hand, his inner strength was profound enough.

What about True Essence Realm Martial Artists?

One day, he would reach that realm and even surpass it.

On the other hand, though he did not dare to claim his Qi-Blood Pill refining skills were the best in the world, ranking in the top three was a certainty.

Elder Tang, projected in front of him, was naturally not included in these comparisons.

"This young man named Chen Fan is indeed extraordinary," Chang Fei thought to himself as he observed Chen Fan’s actions.

Because of his status, even those few brilliant youths in the association couldn’t help but act unnaturally around him.

Of course, there was one exception, that kid Ling Yu.

The guy was indeed a genius, one in a million. Even he had to admit that being surpassed by Ling Yu was just a matter of time.

But precisely because of this, except for the president, Ling Yu held a lofty attitude towards others in the headquarters, even behaving arrogantly in front of him.

He couldn’t help but worry that this guy might suffer a major setback one day.

Neither of these two attitudes was desirable.

In contrast, the young man in front of him was unmoved by honor or disgrace. This was the truly admirable mindset.

Time ticked away.

The initially indifferent Elder Tang also became highly focused.

As the saying goes, "Amateurs watch the show, experts watch the technique." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

This young man indeed had some skills.

What puzzled him was that some steps, which could be skipped, were executed meticulously by him. Conversely, some crucial actions, which could directly affect the pill quality, were ignored...

"Can he really refine a whole furnace of Top-grade Qi-Blood Pills this way?"

Elder Tang frowned deeply, expressing strong doubt.

However, everyone remained silent from beginning to end as if they didn’t exist.

In the blink of an eye, several more minutes passed.

"It looks like it will be over in another three or four minutes."

Elder Tang stared fixedly at the alchemy furnace.

In three minutes, the answer would be revealed. If the result wasn’t as Xia Tian and the others had claimed earlier, they would face consequences.

But just then, a muffled sound came from the furnace.

"What!"

Elder Tang exclaimed, eyes widening.

The Anshan City Branch members, including Chen Fan, raised their heads and looked at him puzzled.

"Elder Tang, what happened?"

Chang Fei asked urgently, glancing at the furnace.

That sound just now came from the furnace, right?

It’s said that when the elixir forms, a sound would come from within the furnace.

Could it be that Elder Tang could judge the quality of the elixir just by the sound?

Elder Tang ignored Chang Fei and looked at Chen Fan, pointing at the furnace, "Did your elixir form?"

"Yes."

Chen Fan glanced at him, with a faint smile, "Do you think the time is off?"

Elder Tang was momentarily speechless.

"According to the association’s pill formula, one furnace of elixir takes fifteen minutes. With my improved formula, it takes twelve minutes." Chen Fan explained.

Behind him, Xia Tian and the other two exchanged glances, secretly realizing that not only had the pill quality improved, but so had the efficiency.

Elder Tang’s lips twitched, humming in displeasure, "Fine, then open the furnace. I want to see what quality this batch of elixirs is."

"Brother Chen, please." Chang Fei’s tone was quite polite.

"No problem."

Chen Fan stepped forward, opened the forge lid, and took out the still-steaming elixirs but hesitated in his movements.

"Brother Chen, what’s wrong?"

The originally cheerful Xia Tian and the others suddenly felt their hearts leap to their throats.

Could it be that something went wrong?

Chang Fei also became a bit nervous.

Did he fail?

If it was a failure, that would be terrible.

While he could stay and watch Chen Fan refine another batch, what about Elder Tang?

Elder Tang’s lips curled into a sneer, thinking that a pill formula couldn’t be modified lightly. Even a minor change could result in vastly different outcomes.

Not to mention reducing the original fifteen-minute process to twelve minutes.

"It’s nothing."

Chen Fan shook his head with a bitter smile, "This alchemy process was mostly successful. There was just a small unexpected issue."

"Mostly successful?"

"A small unexpected issue?"

Everyone looked bewildered by Chen Fan’s contradictory statements.

If it was successful, why was there an unexpected issue?

Chen Fan didn’t elaborate and brought the still-steaming elixirs to everyone.

"Hiss..."

Sun Wei, Xia Tian, and the third person collectively gasped, their faces soon filled with excitement.
