With Ethan’s words, Elder Hansen felt reassured.
However, at this moment, Ethan was not fully confident deep down inside.
From last night to now, Ethan’s strength had recovered by at most 30%.
If there was no support from his qi, Ethan’s alchemy technique would drop drastically.
“There shouldn’t be any problems.” Ethan looked at the people on the stage and murmured softly.
Time flew by as the selection went through round after round.
And Dorian Dawson’s disciple remained in the competition, consistently advancing with overwhelming force.
After nearly a morning, the selection finally concluded.
Other than Dorian’s disciple, three more contestants were chosen.
Altogether, there were five people, including Ethan, to participate in the selection.
During the noon break, Ethan and Elder Hansen found a place to eat lunch casually.
At this time, Dorian was sitting in a restaurant with the rest of the judges and his disciple.
“Elijah, come in and sit down,” Dorian waved to his disciple.
The youth named Elijah Anderson quickly entered the room and greeted everyone politely, “Greetings to all the judges.”
“Hehe, young Elijah, you don’t need to be so polite.”
“Yes, your technique really surprised all of us.”
“Indeed, your skill is not inferior to your Master Dorian!”
Dorian even boasted, “To be frank, Elijah has long surpassed me, the student surpassing the master!”
Elijah sat aside in silence, a hint of pride on his face.
Dorian, on the other hand, pulled Elijah aside and said solemnly, ‘Elijah, you need to pay special attention to Ethan Smith. He’s not a simple opponent.”
Elijah replied nonchalantly, “I know him; he’s just a fighter, not worth mentioning. I can defeat him without breaking a sweat!”
Dorian’s expression turned serious. “Elijah, I believe in your strength, but Ethan Smith is not to be underestimated. You must give it your all. Do you understand? Your Master will also assist you secretly.”
Elijah laughed, “Master, I told you, I don’t need your help. I can easily defeat him!”
Dorian’s brow furrowed, about to say something when Elijah waved him off.
Then, Elijah spread his palm open. Astonishingly, a wisp of spiritual fire started to gather in his hand.
Seeing this fire, Dorian’s pupils shrank instantly, and he shot up on his feet!
“This… is spiritual fire?” Dorian swallowed and his eyes filled with fervor!
Elijah smiled lightly, “That’s right, Master. Now you know why I’m so confident, don’t you?”
Dorian excitedly said, “I knew I wasn’t wrong about you, Elijah. You’re a genius! ”
To Dorian, spiritual fire was something one could only hope for but never attain.
He had tried his whole life but was never able to produce spiritual fire, only to discover his disciple had already mastered it! Elijah smiled faintly, “Master, just wait and see how I defeat him.”
With that, Elijah turned and walked out of the room.
In the afternoon.
The Traditional Medicine Conference finals officially began.
To Ethan’s surprise, the final competition was completely different from the previous rounds, as the venue was almost filled with people!
Many nobles and officials had come to watch, with countless martial arts experts hidden in the shadows.
Ethan raised an eyebrow and quickly understood.
These nobles and officials also wanted to win the favor of alchemists and seize opportunities to court them.
