Qian Hu was a bit embarrassed.
His original intention in inviting Qin Xuan here was to win him over.
He hadn't expected that everyone present would give him no Face.
Not only that, but they even made things difficult for him in every way possible.
However, fortunately, Qin Xuan seemed very confident.
Qin Xuan slowly stood up, displaying the Medicinal Pill in the jade box to those around him.
Then he stared at Wu Yan.
"If I'm not mistaken, this sixth-grade Medicinal Pill should be made with Snow Spirit Flower, Blue Heart Grass, and Swaying Branch."
"Combined with Snow Centipede Essence Blood, and Millennium Cold Jade, and another sixth-grade Medicinal Pill, Heavenly River Pill's medicinal ingredients."
Saying this, Qin Xuan held the Medicinal Pill towards Wu Yan.
A moment later, Wu Yan's expression subtly changed, and the look in her eyes towards Qin Xuan also changed.
"How about it, Master Wu? Was what I said correct?"
Listening to Qin Xuan's words, Wu Yan gritted her teeth and nodded unwillingly.
"Master Qin is right. This is indeed exactly the same as the Pill Formula provided by my teacher."
Upon hearing this, the few people on Grand Jin's side who supported Qin Xuan immediately beamed with joy.
The expressions of the other few people, however, were incomparably gloomy, as if they had eaten fly dung.
They had originally intended to pledge their allegiance to Grand Jin by striking at Qin Xuan.
But they hadn't expected that Qin Xuan would actually discern the key to this Medicinal Pill.
This time, they had truly lost Face.
Not only them, but the few people on Grand Jin's side also looked at Qin Xuan with immense shock.
After Grandmaster Zhuge refined this Medicinal Pill, they had tried to identify it several times, but to no avail.
Yet, they hadn't expected that when it came to Qin Xuan, he only needed to look at it a few times to figure out all the details within.
"Just inferring the ingredients doesn't count for much, does it? There's also the crucial consideration of the Alchemy technique, which was what we should have focused on most at the time."
Someone wanted to forcibly save Face and questioned Qin Xuan.
"Then I'll tell you how to refine this Medicinal Pill. First, extract all the important components of the Heavenly River Pill."
"Then add the Snow Centipede Essence Blood to it. At this time, the temperature of the flame must be kept extremely low, so that the Snow Centipede Essence Blood can rapidly solidify in a very short time."
"After the Snow Centipede Essence Blood solidifies, the Medicinal Pill will have turned white, but that's not enough."
"Next, successively add the three medicinal ingredients: Snow Spirit Flower, Blue Heart Grass, and Swaying Branch. The temperature for the Snow Spirit Flower should be slightly higher, the temperature for the Blue Heart Grass even higher, and by the time of the Swaying Branch, the temperature must reach its highest."
"Finally, rapidly form the Medicinal Pill with spirit fire."
"Only then can this Medicinal Pill be refined the fastest."
After speaking, Qin Xuan looked at Wu Yan and continued to ask her.
"Master Wu, how was what I said? This time, there's no mistake, right?"
Before Wu Yan could speak, Qin Xuan added.
"This Pill, with the addition of Snow Centipede Essence Blood and several cold-natured medicinal ingredients, should be primarily used to treat fire poison."
"This point should also be correct, right?"
Listening to Qin Xuan's words, after a long while, Wu Yan nodded heavily towards Qin Xuan.
"Young Master is right. This Medicinal Pill is indeed used to treat fire poison, and the refining technique is also perfectly accurate."
As her words fell, the surrounding crowd instantly erupted in an uproar. If guessing the ingredients of the Medicinal Pill was already astonishing enough.
Then Qin Xuan's detailed analysis of the Medicinal Pill's refining technique was simply Heaven-Defying.
This could be said to be a true Genius.
Seeing Qin Xuan's performance, the expressions of the few people on Grand Jin's side were somewhat heavy, but Wu Yan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
She slowly stood up, cupped her hands towards Qin Xuan, and took out a Pill Formula, handing it over.
"Truly, heroes emerge from the young. This is the Pill Formula we agreed upon, which I'll give to the Young Master."
Seeing Wu Yan admit defeat so readily, Qin Xuan was somewhat surprised.
He had thought that all of Grand Jin's Alchemists were despicable villains, but he hadn't expected her to be a good loser.
This made his impression of her change quite a bit.
Before Qin Xuan could reply, Wu Yan took out another hot-stamped paper.
"Master Qin, this is something my teacher entrusted me to bring before I came. Before I came here, my teacher said that if someone from Grand Jin could truly discern the key to this Medicinal Pill."
"He would be willing to accept him as his personal Disciple. I wonder if Master Qin would be willing?"
"President, he's from Grand Jin! Do we, Grand Jin, really want to accept someone from Grand Jin?"
The few people nearby said nervously. Hearing this, Wu Yan scoffed.
"What Grand Jin and Grand Jin? In front of those great powers, our small countries are like ants. It's ridiculous to even talk about infighting."
"Before coming here, he, the elder, said that he teaches without discrimination. As long as someone is willing to take him as a teacher, he is willing to impart everything."
"As long as this person truly loves the Dao of Alchemy, that is enough. As for Grand Jin or Grand Jin, it's not important."
Saying this, Wu Yan looked at Qin Xuan solemnly.
She was waiting for Qin Xuan's answer.
Qin Xuan became even more surprised. He hadn't expected this Grand Jin Alchemy Great Master to have such a broad mind.
Knowing that there was no benefit in small countries like Grand Jin and Grand Jin fighting each other, he was willing to accept talented individuals from other countries as Disciples in order to cultivate useful talents.
This state of mind was truly invincible; even Qin Xuan couldn't help but admire it.
However, admiration aside, Qin Xuan would not take him as his teacher. Thinking of this, Qin Xuan cupped his hands towards Wu Yan.
"Thank you, Grandmaster Zhuge, for your kind intentions. It's just that I'm used to being free and unfettered, and I cannot bear the constraints of others."
"Moreover, I also have a Legacy. If I were to take Grandmaster Zhuge as my teacher again, wouldn't that be betraying my own sect?"
"Wouldn't that make me ungrateful? I'm not a true gentleman, but I'm also not such a despicable villain."
Hearing Qin Xuan's refusal, Wu Yan was somewhat disappointed, but the others from Grand Jin and Grand Jin all breathed a sigh of relief.
What a joke! If Grand Jin's Alchemist Legacy were obtained by someone from Grand Jin, how would they conduct themselves in the future?
As for Grand Jin, it goes without saying. Whether they supported Qin Xuan or not, they did not want him to leave Grand Jin to become Grandmaster Zhuge's Disciple.
Especially Qian Hu, who regarded Qin Xuan as the future leader and public Face of Grand Jin. If such a person were to become a Disciple of a Grand Jin Alchemist, wouldn't that be the end?
Therefore, he would rather be selfish and not let Qin Xuan leave.
"Good, good, good. It seems our Grand Jin has won this Alchemy debate."
Qian Hu stepped forward to mediate, and Wu Yan, who was beside him, also nodded.
"Grand Jin truly has an abundance of talents. With a Genius like Master Qin, the Alchemy world of Grand Jin will surely soar in the future."
Wu Yan's words came from the heart; she truly thought highly of Qin Xuan now.
"Alright, the banquet can begin."
Since the Alchemy debate segment had successfully reached Perfection, Grand Jin had achieved great success.
Naturally, the next step was for the hosts and guests to enjoy themselves.
However, just as the banquet was about to begin, a sudden sound of horse hooves came from outside. Everyone stopped, looking out in surprise.
A moment later, hurried footsteps came up.
"Everyone, I, Jiang, am late. Please forgive me."
