Chapter 470: Four hundred sixty-nine, Competition (Part 2)
"Third or fourth place should be within reach," the Nascent Soul Elder guessed. Seeing Luo Shu’s confident demeanor, there shouldn’t be any problem. As for the first and second place, he did not dare to guess. Luo Shu’s greatest expertise lay in Talisman Crafting. If it was a Talisman Crafting competition, he would have guessed without hesitation that she would take first place.
"Fourth place, Wang Yuxin, Earth-rank Level Three Superior Xuan Yuan Pill, nine pills, 9.3 points."
"Third place, Ouyang Li, Earth-rank Level Five Superior Qi-Consolidating Pill, twelve pills, score 9.5 points."
"Why none of them is Sister Luo Shu? Do you think she could be in the first or second place? It’s so frustrating!" Yi Xueying said anxiously.
"I don’t know either, let’s just wait for the results," the Nascent Soul Elder replied, his heart no longer certain. He hoped Luo Shu could surprise him once more, but was it possible? He truly didn’t dare to think of such a surprise.
After announcing the third place winner, the gray-robed elder intentionally paused for a moment, observing the expectant hush falling over the audience, and then announced with a smile, "Second place goes to Ling Yanfeng, Earth-rank Level Nine Superior Replenishing Yuan Pill, twelve full pills, score 9.8 points."
Putting down the list in his hands, the gray-robed elder looked toward the audience with a smile, "Are you all eager to find out who the first place winner is? Let me tell you, this first place winner is a dark horse, and I am certain it’s beyond everyone’s expectations, which sect’s disciple it could be."
"Only one left, what to do? Hurry up and announce it, why drag it out?" Yi Xueying pulled at the Nascent Soul Elder’s sleeve anxiously, wishing she could rush up to the stage to see the list in the gray-robed elder’s hands.
