Miss Loser is too enchanting

"Is there really such a story?" Dugu Qianye exclaimed in surprise, "I didn’t expect to see my senior brother always joking around and seemingly carefree, to have such a past. I thought his sleeping habit was innate. Do you know who that woman was? Why didn’t they end up together?"

Zi Xiao shook his head: "He didn’t say, but she must be from some major power. Otherwise, with his status, he wouldn’t have been so severely injured and poisoned."

Dugu Qianye glanced at Hao Pengyou’s room door and then looked at Zi Xiao with a mischievous smile.

"I have a task for you..."

The next morning, Hao Pengyou was standing energetically in front of Dugu Qianye’s door, calling her out with a vigor that showed no trace of the previous day’s sadness. Dugu Qianye opened the door, saw his demeanor, and without bringing up yesterday’s events, joined them for breakfast before heading to the competition grounds.

Yesterday’s three thousand and two competitors were down to two thousand and two today, a quite significant elimination rate. The spectators in the stands were even fewer than yesterday, likely because some were there just to witness the grand scene of three thousand people performing alchemy at once.

Before leaving the hotel, Dugu Qianye had called out Mo Feng to follow Zi Xiao and the others to the stands to watch the alchemists below perform their craft.

Mo Feng was now able to concoct seventh-grade advanced elixirs. In the Refining Demon Pot, he persisted in practicing alchemy no matter how exhausted he was after each training session. Dugu Qianye thought it was a rare opportunity to observe so many people performing alchemy and wanted him to learn as much as possible.
