t!"Chang Hao waved his fist hard in the direction of the departing car. The greatest contempt was to ignore, and at this moment he was so angry that his face turned green. He didn't expect Ye Bufan to...There was an uproar in the room. Although Song Jian was right, there had been no explicit rule forbidding the use of pills during battles before.

But this is common sense, there's no need to say it out loud, and everyone has always followed it.

It's obvious to everyone that Prince Anshun is blatantly favoring Cangfeng Academy.

Zheng Sanbao said with a stern face, "Your Highness, this martial arts competition is about real strength. Using pills to enhance one's cultivation probably goes against the rules."

The head steward said the same thing, we're looking at real strength. In a life-or-death fight, no matter what means you use, as long as you kill the other person, that's your own strength.

"If this were on a battlefield, where would there be any fairness The result is the only thing that matters."

Zheng Sanbao frowned, a surge of anger rising in his heart, but before he could speak, Ye Bufan beside him stepped forward.

He was never one to suffer losses, and as the headmaster of Lingxiao Academy, he naturally wouldn't allow his students to be disadvantaged. Besides, it involved a major taboo regarding participation in the ranking tournament.

Ye Bufan looked at Song Jian and said, "According to the prince's meaning, on this stage, you can use any means at any time and take any medicine"

Hearing his words, Song Jian thought of the opponent's terrifying use of poison and the fate of those from the Di family. He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "This can't be generalized either. Using poison is definitely not acceptable. I'm just saying that there are medicinal herbs that can enhance one's cultivation. They can be used when necessary."

Ye Bufan said again, "So that means on this platform, you can freely use medicine to enhance your cultivation It doesn't violate the rules at all"

Song Jian had a bad feeling about this, but at this point, he could only grit his teeth and say: "Of course!"

"Hope the prince doesn't go back on his word!"

Ye Bufan smiled at Song Jian and then returned to the location of Lingxiao Academy. With a thought, a huge alchemy cauldron appeared before everyone.

"Lalan, Elder Li, please protect me as I cultivate."

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace. Then, one after another, identical herbs flew into the furnace, and every movement was as smooth as flowing water.

Everyone in the room was completely dumbfounded, but after the shock, they immediately became noisy again.

"What's this guy up to Is he going to perform alchemy in public"

"So young, and already a alchemist How is this possible"

"Who knows I heard that this young man is already the Dean of Lingxiao Academy at such a young age, maybe he's really amazing..."

The crowd buzzed with chatter, their voices a cacophony of speculation. Even the people from Canghai Academy and the royal court looked utterly bewildered.

Feng Tianxiang had won a match and was returning with a smug look on his face. Seeing this scene, he asked in confusion, "What's he doing Is he trying to refine a pill"

"Alchemy I think it's just a way to attract attention!"

Feng Xingkong sneered and said, "I've met so many alchemists, which one is not respected and admired How could someone in their twenties become an alchemist"

Feng Tianxiang nodded frequently: "That's right, I took this Madman Pill. It is a fifth-grade elixir. Even if he is an alchemist, it is impossible for him to refine such a high-level elixir."

Feng Xingkong said: "Medicine pills that can rapidly enhance cultivation are incredibly precious, how could they be something a mere young lad could concoct"

Besides, even if he had the ability, this is a competition venue. There simply wouldn't be time for him to do it.

Song Jian was also full of disdain. In his view, this young man was just being ridiculous, protesting in such a strange and inept way.

The game continued, with Feng Tianxiang facing off against Song Guangkai of the Peak Royal Family.

In contrast, the two people's battle was much more harmonious. Although Feng Tianxiang had an absolute advantage in strength, he gave the royal family enough face. After fighting for a hundred moves, he finally defeated his opponent with one move.

Song Guangkai also understood what was going on, so he didn't continue to argue and readily admitted defeat. The second match was won by Cangfeng Academy.

And during this time, Ye Bufan was busy as a bee. You guessed it right, he was indeed refining pills in the furnace.

In the inheritance of ancient medicine, there were originally pills that could greatly increase one's cultivation level in a short period of time, called Baoyuan Dan.

It's a pity that the medicinal herbs for this kind of pill are quite rare, and they were never gathered before, so it has never been refined.

But this time after a trip to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, with the help of the Azure Dragon Jiao, he managed to collect enough herbs, just enough to gather the materials for refining the Explosive Yuan Dan. However, since returning, he hasn't had the time to refine it.

Now the other party was showing off their pills in front of him, a medical immortal. He might as well refine this batch and give them a good thrashing.

As for the efficacy of his medicinal pills, he had never lost to anyone since obtaining the inheritance.

He used to be afraid to expose his identity as an alchemist because his cultivation was too low and he wasn't safe. He was afraid that some sect would capture him and raise him like a pet.

Now things are different, with the powerful masters Li Dao Ran and Nalan Yu Jia by his side for protection. With the top master at the imperial city ready to assist at a moment's notice, he no longer has any worries about his safety.

For his current level of medical skill, refining Blast Yuan Dan was not a challenge at all. Everything went smoothly and effortlessly, step by step like flowing water.

Just as the match between Feng Tianxiang and Song Guangkai ended, a strong aroma of Chinese herbs filled the entire schoolyard.

Then, Ye Bufan reached out and beckoned, a black pill falling into the jade bottle in his hand.

"My god, this young man is actually a real alchemist..."

"Amazing, I heard that alchemists take at least a few hours to refine a batch of pills, some even days. How come he's so fast"

"I think it's just making a lot of noise, there's no way they could have refined good pills in such a short time..."

All eyes were on Ye Bufan once again.

Song Jian's lips curled into a sneer. He didn't think the other party could really refine pills that increased cultivation, after all, it was too short a time.

If alchemy were that easy, alchemists wouldn't be held in such high regard.

Okay, the second game is over. Let's move on to the third game.

Song Jian didn't take the furnace of pills seriously at all. He announced to the crowd, "The third match is: Song Qing from the Tianfeng Empire royal family, Kan Hu from Cangfeng Academy, and Lu Xue Man from Lingxiao Academy."

When her name was called, Lu Xueman stood up and prepared to go on stage. Ye Bufan took out a Baoyuan Dan and handed it to her.

"Eat it before you begin, it can instantly elevate you to the peak of the Illusory Realm, for a time limit of fifteen minutes."

"What"

At his words, a chill went through the assembled crowd.

To know that pills are originally incredibly precious, and those that can greatly increase cultivation in a short time are even rarer.

The Madness Pill Feng Tianxiang had taken before was able to elevate someone from the early stage of the Refining Void Realm to the middle stage. This was already an extremely rare pill, and it was likely that Feng Xingkong had spent countless resources to obtain it.

And the pill refined by Ye Bufan actually reached the peak of the Refining Void Realm in an instant. This was beyond words, it was simply a god-defying existence.

Unless everyone had immense trust in him, they'd think this was a joke.

Lu Xueman had absolute trust in Ye Bufan. After a brief shock, she took the pill into her hand and walked towards the stage. expected, Mu Feiyanyan saw him, but only for a fleeting moment, without the slightest pause.His last gaze fell on Chu Xiao beside him, his expression becoming incredibly excited in an instant. Howeve...
