Chapter 60.2

It’s not that there are no self-taught alchemists, but all of them are geniuses among geniuses.

Just looking at Ye Fan’s performance just now, he may be a genius among geniuses, but this kind of character is too rare, and one may not come out in a thousand years.

Such a person suddenly appeared at this time, which made many people instinctively suspicious.

Feng Shao smiled and said, “Of course. But considering the means you used in the ‘fair fight’ with me a month ago, I have reason to suspect that you did not rely on your own ability to win this game.”

As he spoke, Feng Shao took out a herb and asked, “If you really have real talents, then why don’t you tell me, what’s the name of this herb?”

Ye Fan showed contempt, “That’s it? You thought you could cause me problems! Isn’t this…”

Having said that, Ye Fan suddenly got stuck.

Everyone was waiting for Ye Fan to answer Feng Shao’s question, but Ye Fan suddenly stopped at this moment, which puzzled many people.

Someone whispered, “Isn’t this just a scented mint herb? Isn’t this question too simple?”

Scented mint herb is a relatively common medicinal material. Of course, the so-called “common” here is limited to the group of alchemists. For ordinary cultivators, it is still relatively difficult to identify.

Generally, it is understandable that a regular cultivator cannot recognize it, but if it is an alchemist, once you have read one or two alchemy books, it is absolutely impossible not to recognize it.

But Ye Fan, who was high-spirited just now, looked at the scented mint herb with cold sweat on his forehead. He kept calling out to the old man in his heart, but the old man didn’t respond at all.

This was naturally the handiwork of Feng Shao again.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Feng Shao had already secretly taken out the Evil-Suppressing Qixuan Seal, spreading the seal’s aura throughout the audience.

Although the Evil-Suppressing Qixuan Seal has the effect of suppressing ghosts and spirits, it has almost no effect on ordinary people.

Even if its aura was released, it is impossible to detect unless one is deliberately searching for it.

However, for a remnant soul like the old man, this trace of aura is as deadly as poisonous gas.

He had to completely hide in the ring and cut off all contact with the outside world.

Without the old man to help him cheat, Ye Fan immediately showed timidity.

Seeing that Ye Fan hesitated and couldn’t name a common herb, many people showed suspicion in their eyes.

Could this guy really be cheating?

Feng Shao secretly smiled in his heart, but he pretended to sigh and said, “It seems that this question is a bit difficult for Brother Ye. If that’s the case, then I’ll change the question!”

As he spoke, Feng Shao took out another herb.

Many people immediately recognized the herb when they saw it.

This herb is more common than scented mint herb, and even cultivators who have never studied alchemy can recognize it.

But looking at Ye Fan again, they saw that there was more cold sweat on his face, and besides anxiety, there was also a little fear in his expression.

This time, even the Yaoxiang Pavilion examiner who supported Ye Fan just now couldn’t help but start to doubt Ye Fan’s ability.

After a long while, seeing that Ye Fan still couldn’t name the herbs, Feng Shao sighed and said, “It seems that this question is still a bit difficult for Brother Ye. Forget it, let’s just skip the identification of herbs and talk about another topic. Let’s talk about medicine.”

Then, regardless of whether Ye Fan agreed or disagreed, Feng Shao raised a question regarding medicine.

The question is very simple, and almost everyone who participated in the selection competition thought of the answer immediately. But looking at Ye Fan again, he was already sweating profusely, and he couldn’t utter a single word.

Feng Shao acted unreasonably and rapid-fire asked several questions one after another, each of which could be called an entry-level question. But Ye Fan couldn’t answer a single one of these questions.

Now, almost everyone was ready to admit that there was indeed something wrong with Ye Fan.

The examiner of Yaoxiang Pavilion was the first to raise the issue, and asked coldly, “Ye Fan, can’t you answer any of these questions?”

The corner of Ye Fan’s mouth twitched, and he forcefully explained, “I…I didn’t sleep well yesterday, and I can’t remember some things clearly. You know, I have been hunted down recently, and I haven’t been able to sleep well or eat enough. In this case, it is reasonable to forget something, right?”

Feng Shao said leisurely, “Then why don’t Brother Ye refine the pill you just refined in front of so many people again? You don’t need to refine the highest quality, ordinary inferior ones are fine. You don’t even need to refine the third rank either. Just a first-grade pill will do. Brother Ye must be able to satisfy such a simple request, right?”

Ye Fan flicked his sleeves and said with a displeased tone, “Either you don’t practice, or you practice to the best. Inferior first-grade pills? Are you humiliating me?”

Feng Shao’s face suddenly looked surprised, as if to say, ‘How do you know?’

Ye Fan was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot.

Before Feng Shao could speak, an examiner from Yaoxiang Pavilion said coldly, “In that case, please refine a third-grade pill! Any quality will do!”

Ye Fan shook his head and said, “I’m not feeling well today. I’ve consumed a lot of true energy refining the pill just now, and I don’t have the energy to refine another one.”

Feng Shao shook his head with a smile.

This guy is still talking hard. Little did he know that in the current situation, no matter whether he was stubborn or not, it was useless.

He can even clearly see that as more and more people doubt Ye Fan’s ability, Ye Fan’s luck is rapidly changing from purple to red again, and the color is still getting lighter, already turning orange The trend has changed.

Just when Ye Fan was in a state of desperation and didn’t know what to do, someone suddenly shouted.

“Beast tide! Demonic Beasts are attacking the city!”

Feng Shao’s complexion turned dark when he heard this.

At this time, a beast tide is attacking the city? Old thief Heavenly Dao, can you no longer afford it?
