The old man had already been at the mid-stage of the Human Level several decades ago, so one could see how terrifying his talent must be.
What was even more terrifying was that Qin Chen could heal a mid-stage peak Human Level's longstanding ailment from decades ago. What kind of prowess was this?
"This child is truly a prodigy!" Kang Sitong's mind was shaken; he stared blankly at Qin Chen, especially recalling Qin Chen's earlier alchemy, making his inner shock even harder to suppress.
At such a young age, with this level of alchemy skill, it would be difficult to find another talent like this in the entire Martial Domain. Only in places like the Alchemy Pavilion headquarters would such alchemy geniuses occasionally appear.
However, given the status of those people in the Martial Domain's Alchemy Pavilion, how could they possibly come to this Central State City to participate in the so-called Four-Domain Grand Competition?
"This time, the old man's injuries can heal thanks to Master Kang. If it weren't for Master Kang's Yin Kui Mist Flower and Divine Spell Golden Crystal, the old man's injuries would probably not have healed so easily." Qin Chen smiled and cupped his hands towards Kang Sitong.
Kang Sitong quickly waved his hands, "Where, where, Kang only did a small favor."
If before, Kang Sitong's attitude was respectful only because of Qin Chen's black card VIP status, now Kang Sitong's respect for Qin Chen came from the heart.
"I wonder what Master Kang thinks about my previous gambling proposal?" Qin Chen smiled as he brought up the earlier bet.
"This..." Kang Sitong couldn't help but hesitate.
One must say that after witnessing Qin Chen's earlier alchemy, Kang Sitong had already been somewhat moved by Qin Chen's proposal, but there was still a trace of concern in his heart.
"Does Master Kang have any concerns?" Qin Chen was surprised. Could it be that the strength he had displayed earlier was still not enough to convince Kang Sitong?
He was here to refine pills, certainly for convenience, but at the same time, it was also to make Kang Sitong believe in him; otherwise, why would he have agreed to let Kang Sitong observe while he refined?
"You don't know, Young Master Chen." Kang Sitong let out a bitter smile, "As far as I know, this time's alchemy competition, besides the genius alchemists from the Four-Domain Alchemy Pavilion, there are also some talented alchemists from the Martial Domain."
"Martial Domain alchemy geniuses?"
Qin Chen was taken aback, his brows furrowing as he said, "Master Kang means that some alchemy forces from the Martial Domain have come to Central State City for a chance at the Ancient Yu Realm quota and want to participate in the upcoming alchemy competition?"
"Young Master Chen is indeed astute; that is indeed the case." Kang Sitong nodded, "According to what I know from Wanbao Tower, there are three people: one is Qiutian, the heir of the Martial Domain's Alchemy King Sect, who has secretly concealed his identity to join the Western Wilderness Domain's Alchemy Pavilion to participate in this competition; another is Ku Xinyu from Tianyao Sect, rumored to be a once-in-a-century genius of Tianyao Sect, who has secretly joined the alchemy organization in the North Sea; the third is Yu Sihui from the ancient alchemy family, Yu Family, who is greatly favored by the Yu Family's ancestor, and is the top talent in the current Yu Family, this person has joined the Alchemy Pavilion in the Heavenly Gate region. In addition, there is also our Dongzhou region's first alchemy genius Ye Mo and the Holy Son Yan Chidao from the Southern Hua region; each of them is exceptional..."
Saying this, Kang Sitong displayed a bitter smile. The odds Qin Chen proposed were that he would certainly take first place, but with so many geniuses around, although he had witnessed Qin Chen's defiance of heaven, he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart whether Qin Chen could truly secure first place.
After all, forces like the Alchemy King Sect, Tianyao Sect, and the ancient alchemy Yu family all had Human Level alchemists among them. These individuals had undergone the most exceptional alchemy training since childhood, and their alchemy talents were impossible to predict.
