Chapter 1910 - 1913: The Invisible Slap Is Simply Too Powerful (Fifth Update)
Shen Qiang, who was playing on his phone, looked up in surprise at Lin Fenghang's words, because for Shen Qiang, a guy who couldn't even refine Divine Grade Elixir Pills was no different from a salted fish. But at this moment, he noticed that Lin Fenghang, who had been silent and reserved, was not only full of confidence but also brimming with pride."Cheer for me, and then he'll personally defeat me?" Shen Qiang furrowed his brows, pondering to himself, "Does this guy look down on me? Does he think my Elixir Pills won't even make it through the first round?"
Just as Shen Qiang furrowed his brow in surprise, the many cultivators present looked tense.
Chu Xiaotian, known as a favored child of heaven, even snorted coldly, saying, "Chu Xiaotian, your opponent is Chen Hao. Defeating Shen Qiang, that's something only I can do."
Hearing this, Shen Qiang instantly felt bored and continued looking down at his phone.
Well, being viewed as a rookie while being the King, what can Shen Qiang do but prove himself with the final results, as everything else has no meaning.
Seeing Shen Qiang silently playing with his phone,
the many alchemists present couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Lin Fenghang, the top eight in the last Elixir Pills conference. Although not particularly eye-catching in the elixir evaluation, in these three years, he's ranked 61st on the top 100 alchemists list, and not many veterans can beat him, let alone young people."
"This Lin Fenghang is different from Chu Xiaotian. He is steady in his actions and wouldn't say such things without certainty."
"You think someone ranked 61st in the top 100 is joking around?"
Amidst everyone's discussion, Shen Qiang saw that the comments in the live broadcast were almost the same.
"No wonder he's ranked 61st on the top 100 list. Lin Fenghang is so arrogant, directly targeting Shen Qiang, very domineering!"
"Impressive, challenging Master Qiang directly—don't they know that our Master Qiang is the best alchemist? Don't they know he's the Alliance Hierarch of Heshenghe Pill Alliance? Yet, they dare to challenge our Master Qiang?"
"Come on, what are you thinking, Shen Qiang isn't even on the top 100 alchemists list, while Lin Fenghang is 61st—won't he crush Shen Qiang in no time?"
"Not necessarily, Shen Qiang has never participated in an elixir competition, and the variety of his elixirs is limited. After this competition, Shen Qiang might make it on the list."
"Yeah, right, I bet Shen Qiang's elixirs get eliminated in the first round. If his elixirs make the top eight, I'll live stream eating my keyboard."
"Alright, I'll help you find a digestible one."
Watching everyone's banter in the live chat, Shen Qiang found it more interesting than the elixir reviews themselves.
While he was thinking this, at that moment,
everyone present saw the young boy, Chen Hao, only seventeen or eighteen years old, walking coldly in front of Lin Fenghang.
"My name is Chen Hao, Chen with the ear radical, Hao as in 'Ritian'."
Hearing this, everyone present instantly realized that the young boy was not happy.
Sure enough, then everyone heard his voice filled with anger: "Shen Qiang is my idol. If you say something else, I can be polite to you, but in front of so many people, bragging about beating my idol Brother Qiang, I'm not happy."
Instantly, everyone's eyes were strange.
Weisheng Zhimei even smiled with bent eyes, casting a charming glance at the helpless Shen Qiang.
"So, I've decided to humiliate you, Lin Fenghang. Listen carefully; the person I admire the most is not someone a loser like you can beat. Not only that, but I'll also knock you out in the first round, because my Brother Qiang has promised me that if I can beat you, he will take a picture with me."
As he spoke, the boy's eyes lit up excitedly, then he raised an eyebrow energetically and said, "So, Lin Fenghang, you're finished. I'll crush you to prove that the Brother Qiang I admire is the strongest man in the world!"
Instantly, Lin Fenghang's face turned gloomy.
The people present burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, that's hilarious, Lin Fenghang was all imposing before, wanting to defeat Shen Qiang, but clearly, he said too much. Shen Qiang's fans won't stand for this. This is gonna be interesting."
"Haha, I thought the Thirty-two Skillful Hands were all on the same page, but it seems they're not. Brother Qiang truly has great charisma. Who'd have thought Chen Ritian's most admired person is him."
"This boast was too big. Let's see, is Lin Fenghang more powerful, or is little brother Shen Qiang stronger."
In the laughter of everyone present, the online live chat room erupted with bullet comments.
"666, our societal Brother Qiang speaks few words but means business. Lin Fenghang is a top-tier alchemist ranked 61st on the top 100 list, yet beating him is required for a picture with Brother Qiang?"
"Master Qiang is mighty! Even his underlings are fierce, aiming to humiliate Lin Fenghang, who's ranked 61st. What if Master Qiang steps in personally—imagine the outcome!"
"Hahaha, I like this kid. When he said his 'Hao' is the same 'Hao' as 'Ritian', I thought his arrogant style really had three-tenths of Brother Qiang's flair."
"Haha, Lin Fenghang better not lose. If he doesn't even come close to Shen Qiang and gets taken down by Shen Qiang's underling, the whole Cultivation World will be laughing."
Seeing such comments, Shen Qiang smiled wryly. In fact, Shen Qiang is usually quite amiable. If someone wants a photo, Shen Qiang normally wouldn't refuse. Only that time, in the bathroom, Chen Hao apparently misunderstood Shen Qiang's meaning. He was so concerned about whether Shen Qiang recognized him, feeling he needed to win at least one round to deserve a photo with Shen Qiang.
So now, Shen Qiang found the situation somewhat awkward.
However, after Chen Hao's words, the competition seemed less boring. Though it was low-level fighting, Shen Qiang still hoped Chen Hao would win, for his own sake.
Soon, the evaluation results for the Elixir Pills came out, beginning with the five judges' assessments of Lin Fenghang's elixirs. Unanimously, the five judges recognized Lin Fenghang's elixirs at the level of Top Grade Elixirs, considered first-class in the Cultivation World.
Such an evaluation made Lin Fenghang's expression gleeful, proudly raising his eyebrows at Shen Qiang.
This instinctively annoyed Shen Qiang.
And then, the five judges suddenly changed their tone. After reviewing various aspects of Chen Hao's elixirs, they presented the final evaluation results, announced by Pan Zheng, the head of the Thirty-two Skillful Hands.
"After comprehensive consideration of all aspects, the winner of this round is... Chen Hao! Winning by a slight margin."
Shen Qiang burst out laughing.
