"It was merely in the preliminary competition that you were first. The final results of this competition will not be based on your earlier results." Song Ming Zhu said, "You definitely wont know this, since youre from a small area, but true strength comes out at the last stage. You just have to be steady in the earlier competitions. You were first in the beginning, but that doesnt mean that you will still be first in the end."
"You are right, I feel the same way." Sima You Yue nodded her head in agreement.
After speaking, she looked at Ji Qing Yuan, who said that they could get on stage now. She no longer bothered with those people as she turned around to get on the stage.
When Song Ming Zhi saw this, he shot a death glare at her back as he got up with Shen Ye Xuan and the others.
Ji Qing Yuan waited for them to get onstage before announcing, "Today is the final battle. The question is simple. You may refine any pill you wish. There is no restriction on time nor category. Every person gets three chances. The final result will be based on your rank. The highest rank will be the winner. If the rank is the same, the final results will be determined based on grade. If the rank and grade are the same, it will be dependent on the time you took to refine it. This is your final competition, bring forth all of your power!"
After speaking, he got off the stage.
The way they chose to compete this round was similar to the second one. However, nobody was holding anything back this time.
"Boom-"
Song Ming Zhu took out a furnace. This furnace was rather heavy as it landed with a thud.
Sima You Yue looked over and the ancient furnace was heavy and the ancient patterns were fine. The furnace didnt appear average in the least.
"This is ranked twenty fifth amongst the ancient furnaces, the Floral Furnace." Song Ming Zhu raised his chin arrogantly.
Sima You Yue looked at the floral patterns and pursed her lips. This was really making her dizzy!
However, a furnace that was ranked twenty fifth sounded like it would be able to raise the quality of his pills.
"How is it, never seen it before, have you?" Song Ming Zhu took Sima You Yues curled lips in disdain as an ignorant expression, "Everyone here has a listed furnace, do you?"
Sima You Yue blinked in confusion. Listed furnaces, did she have any?
Following which, Shen Ye Xuan and the others took out their own furnaces as well. There were those who had already used them in previous matches, and those who were taking it out for the first time. Just as Song Ming Zhu had said, they all possessed furnaces that were ranked in the top fifty. Shen Ye Xuans furnace was the best out of all of them, possessing the Hundred Beast Furnace ranked fifteenth.
"Everyone has taken out their furnaces, so lets take a look at yours." Song Ming Zhu said, "You wouldnt still be using that torn and tattered furnace from previous rounds, right?"
"Pft-"
Someone burst out laughing. They had seen Sima You Yues furnace before. Although it wasnt really torn and tattered, it was like mud as compared to theirs.
Sima You Yue looked around her. Were they all really waiting to make a joke out of her?
With a single thought, she brought out the furnace that was inside her spirit pagoda.
"Boom-"
The heavy furnace caused the ground to shake. If the ground were not made of solid stone, it might have cracked.
"The Auspicious Dragon Phoenix!" Shen Ye Xuan cried out.
"Auspicious Dragon Phoenix? The Auspicious Dragon Phoenix that is ranked top ten? Xuan Xuan, you couldnt have gotten it wrong, right?" Song Ming Zhu dared not believe it.
"Thats definitely it! Ive seen it before in a text." Shen Ye Xuan said.
