Chapter 255 (Luxury Car Extra - )
"See that? That is our Rosy Cloud Pill Pavilion’s youngest Fifth-Tier Alchemist, his future is limitless!"
"Are you a Fifth-Tier Alchemist? If you are, I’ll immediately report to the Pavilion Master and let you in, how ridiculous, not even knowing your own weight!"
After the man in the purple-black robe disappeared, the guard resumed his mocking face, looking even more impatient and annoyed, he clearly didn’t believe Adam could be at the same level as their youngest alchemist.
"And what if I am?" Adam asked, still smiling.
"Hehe, impossible, get lost immediately!" The guard sneered coldly.
But just as he finished sneering, he heard a commotion behind him, the man in the purple-black robe who had just walked inside suddenly walked back out.
"Eh? Alchemist Carlos, why did you come back out?" The guard looked completely bewildered.
"I... I don’t know either." Carlos also had a bewildered look on his face, he had inexplicably walked out, his body completely out of his own control.
This was actually because his strength was too low, if he were at the Saint Realm, he would have seen a faceless female ghost standing right behind him.
Before they could think too much, a voice interrupted them.
"Do you dare to make a bet with me? If my alchemy is better than your so-called youngest alchemist, you will kneel down and lick the stone bricks on this street clean, with every lick, you must shout, This is so delicious!" Adam’s mouth curled up in an amiable smile.
"If I’m not, here is a precious armor that can block one full-powered attack from a First Heaven Deity."
"And here are two bags, each containing 100 top-tier spirit stones."
After speaking, Adam tossed the divine-light-flowing precious armor and the two bags of spirit stones in front of Carlos and the two guards respectively.
To them, these were hard to refuse.
Carlos’s cultivation realm wasn’t high, he hadn’t even reached the Deity Realm yet.
In an era where spiritual treasures were scarce, even with spiritual energy recovery, it was mostly just an improvement in cultivation realms, treasures like this were still extremely rare, to Carlos, the temptation was massive.
Needless to say for the two guards, even though they had some cultivation, how much could their salary really be? At most, ten top-tier spirit stones a year.
The eyes of Carlos and the two guards all lit up, a single thought simultaneously popped into their minds.
Where did this gullible fool come from?
"It’s a bet!"
Carlos agreed without a moment’s hesitation.
As the youngest alchemist in Hundred Rivers City, he was absolutely confident he could defeat this guy.
After all, that was a precious armor capable of resisting a full-powered strike from a Heaven and Earth Deity, to an alchemist, a life-saving treasure of this caliber held an irresistibly fatal temptation.
Although the world highly respected alchemists, there was no shortage of hotheaded fools who would risk their lives just to spite them.
With the depletion of spiritual energy and the severe lack of resources, possessing a handy spiritual treasure was an absolute luxury, he never expected this dark, scrawny kid to possess such a precious artifact.
"But I need to know your true identity, for all I know, you could be some old monster in disguise!"
He wasn’t an idiot, since this guy possessed such a heavy treasure, combined with his bizarre, unreadable movement technique from earlier, this dark, scrawny kid’s identity was likely far from simple.
"No problem!" Adam smiled and nodded, pulling a document from his robes and tossing it over, it contained his identity and border-pass information.
After looking it over and confirming there were no anomalies, Carlos tossed it back, now he was certain this guy was just an arrogant, hotheaded rich kid with a strong background, likely protected by experts in secret.
In broad daylight, with so many people watching, even if the other party had a heaven-shaking background, they would still have to act with restraint.
Besides, he himself wasn’t exactly an ordinary nobody, in this Hundred Rivers City, if he stomped his foot, the ground would tremble three times.
"Good! Then let’s begin right away, however, we will compete outside, and let everyone serve as our witnesses and judges!" He urged, eyes brimming with excitement.
"Sure, no problem!" Adam nodded calmly.
This was exactly what he wanted, he could have completely bypassed this and secretly sought out the Pavilion Master to display his astonishing alchemy skills.
But if he did that, his reputation wouldn’t spread, he wanted to earn an astronomical amount of spirit stones in a very short period of time.
To do that, he had to blow up his reputation, ensuring that all the wealthy clients would actively seek him out.
"We agree too!" The two guards exchanged a glance and immediately nodded, since Carlos had already agreed, what did they have to be afraid of?
The commotion at the entrance naturally attracted a massive crowd of passersby, who immediately began buzzing with discussion.
"What happened here?"
"Not sure, it seems someone wants to challenge Alchemist Carlos in pill refinement!"
"What?! Alchemist Carlos is a Fifth-Tier Alchemist! The youngest Fifth-Tier Alchemist in all of Hundred Rivers City! The only ones better than him are the elders and the Pavilion Master!"
"Where did this dark, scrawny kid come from? An out-of-towner? Daring to challenge Alchemist Carlos? He doesn’t know his own weight!"
"This scrawny kid really doesn’t know the meaning of death, actually daring to compete in alchemy with Alchemist Carlos! Does he not know that Carlos’s alchemy skills are second to none in Hundred Rivers City?"
"We’ve got a good show to watch now! I really want to see how this reckless kid gets taught a severe lesson!"
Listening to the harsh words of the crowd, Cecilia’s pretty face puffed up with anger.
"What are you all saying?! My Young Master is incredibly strong!" Cecilia couldn’t stand hearing people talk about her Young Master like this.
"Where did this wild brat pop out from?"
"We are talking here, does a lowly servant like you have the right to speak?"
"Overestimating yourselves is overestimating yourselves, did we say anything wrong?"
The mouths of the onlookers showed absolutely no mercy.
