Become Eternals

Disqualify Bai Xiaochun!

The surrounding Outer Sect disciples, especially those who had been eliminated from the competition from the start, glared at Bai Xiaochun furiously. Many people even started screaming.

“No shame! You are truly shameless, Bai Xiaochun! ”

“Winning that way doesn't count and we all know it !!”

“Disqualify him!”

Everyone joined together in their anger, causing Bai Xiaochun to instantly become agitated from fear. He also realized that flaunting the Lightness-in-Heaviness ability would not assuage the audience's anger, and in fact, potentially lead to worse consequences, and cause them to call him more shameless…. Instead, he turned to look at Elder Sun.

“Elder Sun, I got first place, right? Can you go ahead and announce it? ”

Elder Sun smiled wryly in response. As for Li Qinghou, he sighed; how could he imagine that having Bai Xiaochun join the competition would make him take first place?

Elder Sun shook his head and laughed. “Uh... well I guess I did too. Bai Xiaochun had placed first in the competition! ”

In response, everyone stared angrily at Bai Xiaochun.

Bai Xiaochun argued that he was actually quite strong, but given how many people there were. Just as he was about to exit the arena and leave this dangerous location, Du Lingfei, with the help of some observers, regained his senses and sat back down. Gasping for breath, he glared at Bai Xiaochun angrily, gritted his teeth, and then shouted, “Bai Xiaochun, I refuse to admit defeat!

“You may take first place, but it's only because I let you have it. And it doesn't change how much I hate you. Do you dare to fight again !? ”

Bai Xiaochun laughed sinisterly and continued walking. In his mind, he would be crazy to fight with this crazy woman again. Besides, what would happen if he fainted again?

“I will not fight you with magic,” he continued. “In addition, as Outer Sect disciples, we are both apprentice apothecaries at Fragrant Cloud Peak. Why don't we compete in expertise with plants and plants ?! ” Du Lingfei glared at Bai Xiaochun the entire time, and as he spoke, his words were spoken slowly and firmly.

“If you win, you can keep my Pinewood Sword. But if you disagree, then you'll regret it! ”

Bai Xiaochun stopped walking. Hearing the expertise with the plants and herbs mentioned, he inevitably turned his head to look back at Du Lingfei.

Seeing that Bai Xiaochun had stopped and seemed to be hesitating, he resisted the urge to unleash a savage attack, and quickly continued, “Bai Xiaochun, he held back, if you can defeat me in terms of skill with plants and herbs, then you can even have this Cloudsoaring. Incense!” With that, he produced a bluish purple incense stick.

As soon as the incense appeared, it began to pulsate with spiritual energy, and the eyes of the surrounding Outer Sect disciples instantly gleamed with envy.

“Tiered spirit medicine 1! Cloudsoaring Incense.it was an extremely extraordinary level 1 spirit medicine. It must be very expensive, and useful to anyone under the seventh level Qi Condensation! ”

“Du Lingfei must have spent a lot of achievement points for it in preparation to come out of the fifth level of Qi Condensation ..”

“ Elder Sister Du's skill with plants and herbs brought her to the top 20 of the first three stones outside the 10,000 Medicine Pavilion. Bai Xiaochun would definitely lose! ”

Bai Xiaochun instantly recognized Cloudsoaring Incense, which he had read while studying the introduction of Cloudsoaring Grass in the third volume of plants and vegetation. He was instantly touched, and it was even before he heard everyone mention that Du Lingfei was only in the top 20 on the stones, after which his eyes shone.

Taking a few steps back, she stuttered, “K-you .. You really are in the top 20 in the stone pile of plants and herbs?”

He actually just wanted to make sure that what he heard just now was true.

“Are you going to compete or not !?” Du Lingfei said with gritted teeth.

“But I only learned the first three volumes about plants and plants..” he said hesitantly.

“That's what I'm talking about! Compete with me in the first three volumes! Come on, I'm challenging you! ” Du Lingfei was so angry that he felt like he was going to explode.

“Good... I'll compete!” she said. “Happy?” Although she looked like she wanted to cry, inwardly, her heart was blooming with flowers of joy. He could not help but think that this girl was really a little stupid.

As soon as the crowd heard Bai Xiaochun's words, they began to scorn and reproach him. Du Lingfei took a deep breath, sucking in a hint of spiritual energy, which made him slightly stable. Glaring at Bai Xiaochun angrily, he walked forward to Elder Sun, then clasped his hands and bowed.

“Older, Disciple Du Lingfei requests that you be an official witness to the battle of plants and herbs between me and Bai Xiaochun.”

Elder Sun's opinion of Du Lingfei was increasing at all times. He stroked his beard for a moment before smiling and saying, “Alright. I will give testimony. However, since we are talking about skills with plants and herbs, it would probably be best for the Peak Ruler to decide on the nature of the challenge. ”

He looked at Li Qinghou. Li Qinghou stared intently at Bai Xiaochun for a moment, then nodded.

The surrounding disciples were now quite excited, as was Du Lingfei, who turned to Li Qinghou, clasped his hands and bowed.

Bai Xiaochun was also very happy that he did not need to engage in dangerous battles to make his name famous. He stood there, no longer looking like he was about to cry, but rather, with a protruding jaw, looking arrogantly towards the crowd in the same way that a Chosen one would. Du Lingfei gave a cold snort.

At this point, Li Qinghou glanced at Bai Xiaochun and Du Lingfei, then began to speak, his voice cold, “Dao plants and herbs were unpredictable. Although we will limit things to the first three volumes, those volumes contain many variables. Today I'll give you two challenges. We'll see which of you two can secure the victory. ” With that, he tapped on his bag to hold and produced two seeds.

“These two flower seeds can be catalyzed with spiritual energy. Your skill level with plants and herbs will determine how many petals a spirit flower produces. This is how we determine the winner of the first round. ” Li Qinghou waved his hand, sending the two seeds flying to Bai Xiaochun and Du Lingfei respectively.

Du Lingfei caught the seed without hesitation. At the same time, Li Qinghou sent a medicinal pill towards him, which he also caught, a shocked expression appearing on his face.

“Take the pill to recover your cultivation base,” said Li Qinghou calmly. Du Lingfei's face twinkled. After saying thank you, he took the pill. After a while had passed, he trembled, and his eyes began to shine brightly; his cultivation base had fully recovered.

Bai Xiaochun wasn't too happy about it, but he didn't dare to say anything. Instead, he looked at the spirit seed lying on his palm, and began to study it carefully.

“Do not recognize it?” Du Lingfei said while sneering. “Yes, I can tell you that it is the seed of Bluespirit Thistle.” With that, he completely ignored Bai Xiaochun, closed his eyes and circulated his spiritual energy, which he then poured into the seeds in his hands.

Almost instantly, emerald green buds emerged from its seeds. It grew rapidly to a height of about a third of a meter. Then, it bloomed with blue spirit flowers, and began to grow taller.

Bai Xiaochun saw what was happening, and then turned his attention back to the seed, which he continued to study seriously.

Li Qinghou watched Bai Xiaochun the entire time, and soon, a barely detectable flash of surprise could be seen deep in his eyes.

While Bai Xiaochun was standing there thinking, all of the surrounding Outer Sect disciples were watching Du Lingfei. The plant in his hand was already two-thirds of a meter tall, and already had a second flower.

By the time Bai Xiaochun sent spiritual energy into the seed, Du Lingfei's spirit plant had already sprouted with three flowers. Bai Xiaochun did not maintain a steady flow of spiritual energy, but instead sent it out abruptly. In fact, when the seed sprouts, it even blows out the first few shoots by breathing air.

Li Qinghou nodded. “Six spirit flowers, all of them superior grade. Good job.”

Feeling very pleased with himself, Du Lingfei looked at Bai Xiaochun. When he saw his spirit plant not even a third of a meter tall, his sneers widened.

The surrounding outer Sect Disciples became extremely excited.

“Elder Sister Du definitely deserves her reputation. The Bluespirit Thistle was blooming with six flowers. That's just amazing! Bai Xiaochun had not even caused a single flower to bloom. He's completely useless. ”

“The plant catalysis competition first involves the study of seeds, and then uses a unique catalysis method to make them grow. In that case, Elder Sister Du actually led the group. ”

Amidst all the conversation, Bai Xiaochun's spirit plant gradually reached a height of a third of a meter. Next, a slightly withered blue flower appeared. Compared to Du Lingfei's flower, it looked somewhat malnourished, and even invited laughter from the crowd. But then, suddenly, a second blue flower appeared on the short plant. Next is the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh….

Within a few breaths, Bai Xiaochun's spirit plant bloomed with nine flowers !!

This instantly caused widespread shock and mistrust.

Du Lingfei was looking at what was to him an entirely unimaginable sight. “Bluespirit Thistle blooms with one flower in every third meter. How could this plant have nine flowers when it was only a third of a meter tall! ”

But it's not over yet. Even when the nine little blue flowers appeared, Bai Xiaochun closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then suddenly exhaled sharply. That one breath contained the spiritual energy attached to the nine flowers and, in the blink of an eye, caused them to start shivering and change color. No longer blue, but indigo!

The Indigo was originally blue, but the color was deeper and deeper!

Once people realized what was going on, their eyes widened in astonishment.

“It.... it is not Bluespirit Thistle !!”

“Indigospirit Thistle! This is Indigospirit Thistle, whose seeds are very difficult to distinguish from those in Bluespirit Thistle! In fact, if you use the catalysis method for Bluespirit Thistle in Indigospirit Thistle, you will actually produce Bluespirit Thistle, unless you have wasted the seeds! ”

Everyone was shocked, and started at Bai Xiaochun in disbelief.

Bai Xiaochun opened his eyes, then placed Indigospirit Thistle to the side. While laughing sinisterly, he cupped his hands behind his back and looked at Du Lingfei.

His skill with plants and herbs had already reached an indescribable level. After studying the seed for a while, he had noticed the difference, and could easily discern the type of seed.

Du Lingfei's face flickered; to him, it felt like someone had just slapped him in the face. He staggered back a few steps, first seeing Bluespirit Thistle and then Bai Xiaochun's Indigospirit Thistle. Suddenly, his face flushed red from the heat. Previously, he had scolded Bai Xiaochun for his lack of knowledge, but then, a short while later, he had proved with certainty that he had wasted the seeds.

“This Bai Xiaochun must be very lucky,” he thought as he gritted his teeth. “I assumed that it was Bluespirit Thistle, and he guessed it was Indigospirit Thistle. Well, it was just a lucky chance on his part, not that he had actually identified the seed! ”

“Bai Xiaochun won the first round,” said Li Qinghou coldly. “It was really the seed of Indigospirit Thistle, not Bluespirit Thistle. They look similar, but some blood vessels grow differently. Without studying them to the smallest detail, it is easy to confuse them. ” Looking towards Bai Xiaochun, he waved his hand again, causing the spirit plant to appear.

It was very unique, with four colors, and nine leaves with different shapes. It also had two flowers on it, one black and one white. The flowers almost seemed to be alive, as they were constantly struggling with each other, as if they wanted to suppress each other. Even though the plant looks like one plant, if you look closely you will see signs that the plant has been grafted together.

“The first branch is dedicated to catalysis. The second half will focus on identification. This particular spirit plant has been grafted from many other plants. Anyone among you who can guess exactly the largest amount of graft material. ”

Li Qinghou sent a graft plant floating in front of him, then looked at Bai Xiaochun. Considering he had brought Bai Xiaochun to the sect, he was very curious to see what surprising things he could do.

Du Lingfei gritted his teeth. In his mind, he had just been careless a moment ago. Now, he's very focused. Taking out the jade slip, he walked over to the spirit plant.

Xiaochun's bai eyes shone with interest as he also stepped forward and started examining the plants, sometimes making notations with jade slips. A moment later, Du Lingfei stepped back, rubbing the trunk of his nose. Then he looked at Bai Xiaochun with a grim expression on his face. He has identified eight types of plants. The others were the type he was not familiar with.

However, Bai Xiaochun was not finished yet. His eyes shone brighter as he swirled around the plants. Sometimes he even shouted in surprise, as if he had just noticed something very interesting.

“Wow, you can do that !?

“This is.... it is very interesting!”

The crowd looked on without a sound. None of them believed that Bai Xiaochun could identify any plants, and in fact, most of them were convinced that the reason he catalyzed Indigospirit Thistle was simply luck.

“False!” Du Lingfei thought. “Yes, you keep pretending!” Inwardly, he began to feel uneasy, and his hatred for Bai Xiaochun only continued to grow.

Enough time had passed for the incense to burn, and Bai Xiaochun was still gone. He was completely engrossed in what he was doing, and even forgot that he was competing. Seeing a grafted plant like this seemed to open a big door in his mind about skills with plants and herbs. Suddenly, he realized that the tens of thousands of medicinal herbs he knew were not only useful, but could actually be mixed together.

Finally, he retreated reluctantly, his eyes shining with admiration and admiration.

Li Qinghou and Elder Sun exchanged glances, and then Li Qinghou said, “Alright. The time has come to reveal which spirit herbs you have identified. Du Lingfei, go first. ”

Du Lingfei gritted his teeth, then pulled out his jade slip and began to speak.

“I saw eight kinds of plants, including Waterheaven Rhubarb, Coldsole Root, Earthdragon Fruit, Dawnfog Lichen..” He continued until he reached the last medicinal plant. “Salwort Flower!” With that, Du Lingfei looked at Bai Xiaochun, confident that he would never be able to surpass him. Of course, although eight did not seem like much, it was a very difficult task to identify the various elements of a perfectly grafted medicinal plant like this. Eight is actually quite a lot.

“Hmph-deep. If Bai Xiaochun is shameless to say the same eight plants, “ he said coldly,” then we can consult the jade slip as proof! ”

Bai Xiaochun cleared his throat, looked around, then flicked his sleeve and took out a jade slip that kept his records.

“Let's forget the eight plants mentioned by Elder Sister Du. In addition, I saw there were 67 types of medicinal plants. Unfortunately, there are 31 that I cannot identify. That is, in the end, I identified 36. ” His words instantly made the surrounding disciples into an uproar.

36? How is it possible!”

“Seven or eight should be the limit. How could he possibly identify dozens ?! ”

Du Lingfei glared at Bai Xiaochun coldly. He simply did not believe his words, and assumed that he would randomly guess the type of plant.

“Adik Bai,” said cynically, “why don't you just say there are 30,000 kinds of plants. That would include everything in the third volume of plants and vegetation, so at least you're sure to guess a few correctly. ”
