Chapter 772: Chapter 772: The Second Round
This time it’s a contest between alchemist Mia Hamilton and Peter Brown.
As Mia Hamilton stepped on the stage, her presence as an alchemist, especially her beautiful appearance, immediately sparked the enthusiasm of the audience, the cheering and shouting echoed in the competition venue.
When Peter Brown opened his eyes and glanced at her, he secretly praised her in his heart. This woman was indeed beautiful, particularly with a unique aura, standing there like a fairy.
Beautiful, with a unique aura, and a renowned alchemist, naturally, she garnered a lot of support.
Looking at the betting situation, Peter Brown gave a wry smile. The support for this woman was too high, instantly widening the gap between the two sides. It seemed that people had high expectations of her.
The odds were one to ten!
When Peter saw this rate, his eyes lit up. If this were the case, as long as he won this round, it would be another good income.
Peter Brown also thought that even if he had to pretend, he could only do it once or twice. He could not pretend for long. Everybody was smart, they would soon understand. Therefore, this round might be his most profitable one.
"Are you Peter Brown?" Mia Hamilton looked to Peter, and was quite curious about him.
"Don’t you know me?"
"I heard that you infiltrated the alchemist’s rank, and I want to test your alchemy level."
She didn’t know anything about him and yet she stood out to press him down!
Peter was speechless at once.
"Enough with the nonsense, let’s start refining the pills." Peter didn’t want to say anymore. As for this sort of woman who knew nothing, his only thought was to defeat her.
"You!"
Mia Hamilton didn’t expect Peter to have this attitude, he left her speechless on the spot. She glanced at Peter and walked away to sit cross-legged.
Now, in Mia’s heart, she had formed an impression of Peter – the smelly brat didn’t take her seriously. Fine, she would defeat him in alchemy and strike him hard.
Feeling the strong fighting intent emanating from Mia, the audience became even more enthusiastic, shouting slogans to cheer for her.
"The elixir you will now refine is the Primordial Qi Pill. The lowest requirement for the elixir is beneath the top grade, otherwise, it’s considered a loss."
This time the grade was raised, ordinary pills couldn’t be refined anymore.
Then Mia Hamilton raised her hand and said, "I suggest we aim directly for the top grade. Anything below that, consider it a loss."
As she said it, she looked at Peter.
"Leader Rain, you’re so powerful, that’s how we should compete!"
"Support Mia!"
"Mia will win big!"
"Now that’s my goddess. Amazing, you should crush him like this!"
With Mia Hamilton’s demand, the cheering from the audience grew louder.
"Peter Brown, what do you say?" The host looked at Peter Brown, with a hint of pity in his eyes.
"Alright!"
Peter didn’t say much, just one word.
As Peter spoke, the betting quickly changed - from one to ten, it had now reached one to fifteen.
Seeing the changes in the gambling situation, Peter exclaimed, "The odds have changed, with this one to fifteen, can they pay?"
Who would have thought that Peter would say something like this at a time like this, causing everyone to burst into laughter after a moment of surprise.
Carl Webster sat there laughing, "Peter Brown, you’re even concerned about this. Did you bet for your victory? Haha, don’t worry, this bet is bound by a Heavenly Dao Contract, it will definitely be able to pay off, of course, only if you win."
Peter sighed, shook his head and said, "I just want to see if there is the matter of integrity here."
Upon saying this, Peter Brown said, "I want to bet on this round as well. I have twenty thousand cultivation coins and some Lingcao, I want to put it all on stake. Can you help me calculate it?"
Damn!
Ridiculous was what people thought when they heard Peter’s requirement.
"Peter Brown, are you very confident about yourself?"
"Not much confidence, but, I feel my luck is not bad, maybe I might refine a top-grade elixir without noticing."
The crowd burst into laughter.
After the laughter, Maxine Nelson looked at Peter Brown and asked, "Peter Brown, aren’t you going to save some for your livelihood?"
"If I lose, I’ll be a chore disciple. I don’t know about the future, so it’s better to bet big."
No one took Peter Brown’s thoughts seriously. Mia Hamilton’s alchemy level was demonstrated. She was the best alchemist in the shire, she has been cultivating behind closed doors for a long time and there was no rival in the shire.
Although the odds fluctuated for a while, it still stopped at one to nineteen.
"The value of your Lingcao is fifty thousand cultivation coins plus your own twenty thousand, adding up to seventy thousand in total. Who do you want to bet for the win?"
Unexpectedly, the casino was able to send someone over to collect the betting coins. After the middle-aged man who arrived calculated for a while, he asked a question.
"Of course, either I win."
"Alright, this is the winning ticket. Keep it safe, you can collect the money with this when the time comes."
Having secured the ticket, Peter Brown sat cross-legged, adjusting his breathing. Though he knew he would surely win, Peter did not take it lightly.
"The competition officially begins now. Both sides have two hours to refine the elixir!"
When the host announced the start, Mia Hamilton also started refining.
This time Peter Brown’s demeanor completely changed from before, his aura suddenly shifted.
Everyone could see Peter’s movements speeding up. Even though Mia’s poses were beautiful, they were not as captivating as Peter’s alchemy technique.
"This is his real strength!"
Seeing this, the influentials were shocked.
They thought that before Peter had just sneaked into the alchemist’s team, but now they knew he was truly talented.
Lucas Armstrong had a smile on his face by this point.
"Oh no, this kid was pretending!"
"My old lady!"
"Done for, done for!"
Seeing Peter’s performance and then looking at Mia, everyone lost confidence in Mia for the first time.
Soon, Peter’s refining was finished, but he didn’t open the furnace. Instead, he sat there waiting for the result of Mia Hamilton’s refining.
Ten minutes later, Mia Hamilton finally sighed. Her elixir was finally completed.
Who won in the end?
The audiences were really anxious. Most people bet for Mia Hamilton to win, but now they were worried.
"Open the furnaces and check the pills!"
As he roared, Peter slapped his furnace; the lid was already opened.
Meanwhile, Mia Hamilton also slapped her furnace, which was also opened.
The unveiling moment that will determine the winner had arrived. Everyone’s gaze was drawn to the elixirs in the two furnaces.
