"Their speed is a force to be reckoned with!"

Many disciples exclaimed in awe. Quite a few of them had previously tried to study alchemy at the Alchemy Tower, but enhancing the success rate of one's alchemical ability was achievable only with relentless practice. Prodigies like Severin and Emery were a whole different class of their own.

The pill-refining process continued, and middle-rank pills produced by both parties failed to cross the six-line mark. Severin, however, was the first to craft a high-grade pill with seven golden lines, taking him one step above Emery.

Upon witnessing that scene, Severin's supporters breathed sighs of relief.

"There aren't any words to describe Severin's alchemy skills. He is truly amazing!"

"Yes! He has surpassed Emery again!"

The dozen or so elders who were suspended in mid-air shared a hint of surprise as well. Severin had overtaken Emery in just half a day. Ferland, who was initially concerned about the disadvantage that Severin had been put at, was all smiles as he was incredibly impressed with the young alchemist. "Not bad.

"He's worthy of being my disciple," Daniella mused and considered recruiting Severin to the Sixth

Mountain after the contest ended. She could already envision Severin providing healthy competition to

Emery in the future.

Before long. Emery lived up to her reputation and utilized the Purplecloud Cauldron to craft a seven-lined sixth-grade pill. Daniella praised her disciple, "Wonderfull You have done well and-

Before Daniella could finish her words, a beam of golden light shot into the sky from Severin's cauldron. The brightness was so intense that most onlookers had to either close their eyes or look away. All

out of the cauldron. A strong medicinal fragrance soon wafted across the entire area. Excitement swept

through the crowd as they bore witness to the successful crafting of an elite-quality Crystal Spring Pill. "It has nine lines! This is an elite-quality pill!"

"He... he managed to produce an elite-quality pill?!!"
