Chapter 3332: Just Like Him

master, you're here."After the shock, he came up to him with a smile again and handed over another yellowed piece of paper, which listed tomorrow's betting odds.Ye Bufan took it and glanced at it: "No...Ye Bufan slightly frowned. He didn't have time to waste here.

Moreover, comparing himself to Ge Shengwen in alchemy was like a chess grandmaster playing against an amateur. It was simply agonizing because they were on completely different levels.

And just then, Jiang Yingyue's voice transmission rang in my ear.

"I have to make him submit, break off the engagement, or our agreement won't be fulfilled."

Thinking of the Illusion Thunder Crystal in his pocket, Ye Bufan sighed secretly and finally nodded.

Then let's play another round.

His attitude was reluctant, he really didn't want to engage in this pointless fight, but in the eyes of the Ge family father and son it was a different scene.

In their eyes, Ye Bufan was just being evasive. He must have relied on luck to win the previous match.

Seeing that both parties had no objections, Gu Fan Jiu said: “Since that’s the case, let’s begin the second round of combat.”

Ge Shengwen shouted: "This time, I'm going to increase the difficulty. I want to refine the fourth-grade elixir Qing Xuan Dan."

In his eyes, the difficulty of a third-rank pill was too low. To defeat the opponent, it was necessary to raise his level.

Jiang Ran waved his hand, and someone immediately brought over two sets of medicinal materials for refining Qingxuan Dan.

The second round of the competition began. Ge Shengwen raised his hand, and instantly a huge cauldron appeared before him, shining with gold, ancient yet majestic.

This furnace tripod is completely different from the previous one; it's a mid-grade fairy artifact furnace.

Gu Fanjiu's expression changed slightly. He was familiar with Ge Xingtong, and naturally knew that this was the treasure of the Tianxia Danlou.

A craftsman must first sharpen his tools if he wants to do a good job. Normally, a furnace crucible is extremely important for an alchemist.

For example, this middle-grade fairy artifact furnace right here can increase the success rate of alchemy by 10%, and even increase the rate of high-grade pill refinement by 30%.

If the two players' skill levels are roughly equal, whoever possesses such a cauldron is practically guaranteed victory.

To make matters worse, a purple flame was then thrown into the cauldron. It was an alien fire.

The Zihong fire is the lowest ranked among all kinds of foreign fires, but it is also extremely precious and rare.

It's clear that Ge Shengwen is really going all out this time. A mid-grade immortal artifact furnace, paired with purple heterochromatic fire, directly boosted his alchemy skill by fifty percent.

Over on Ye Bufan's side, he was still using that decrepit old cauldron and the lowest grade of fire to refine his pills.

"Wait a minute, that's not fair!"

Jiang Yingyue stood up directly, "The two people's furnaces are different, the fire is different, and the result is not fair."

They should use the same level of furnaces and flames, so that it is fair.

"Ying Yue, you're not being right about this."

Ge Shengwen's face looked much better now, and he even managed a smile.

For warriors, spiritual weapons are part of their strength, and for us alchemists, the cauldron and flames are also part of our strength.

He doesn't have that kind of equipment, which means he doesn't have the capability. Who can he blame

"If you're really afraid of losing, just admit defeat!"

"You..."

Jiang Yingyue was seething with anger, but she had nothing to say.

Ge Shengwen's approach is somewhat shameless, but what he said isn't wrong, equipment is part of strength.

Jiang Ran said, "In that case, although I'm not an alchemist, I happen to have a lower-grade immortal artifact level cauldron. I'll lend it to Young Master Ye for use."

Through that just-ended duel, the scales in his heart had begun to slowly tip in Ye Bufan's favor. That's precisely why he chose to lend a hand.

As he spoke, he raised his hand and a bronze cauldron materialized in mid-air.

Although it was inferior to the mid-grade immortal artifact in front of Ge Shengwen, it was still brimming with spiritual energy and was undoubtedly a lower-grade immortal artifact.

Ge Xiongtu let out a cold snort, clearly displeased that his old friend was helping the other party.

Jiang Yingyue was extremely happy. No matter what, this furnace tripod was much better than that broken one.

To everyone's surprise, Ye Bufan just smiled faintly.

"Thank you, Senior Jiang, for your kindness. I'm used to this furnace tripod after all these years, so I won't be changing it."

"This..."

The people around him widened their eyes in surprise, none of them expecting the young man to reject Jiang Ran's kindness.

Is this guy crazy He's got a mid-grade immortal artifact and he's not using it, instead he's using that broken thing in his hand

Jiang Yingyue said urgently, "You should still change it. After all, a better furnace can enhance your strength."

"There's no need for that."

Ye Bufan had a faint smile on his face. "Only those without strength need to rely on external objects. Someone like me doesn't need to at all."

"Uh..."

After he said that, a few people around him frowned. It was too arrogant.

Jiang Ran was completely infuriated, raising her hand and instantly putting away her own alchemy furnace.

Ge Shengwen let out a cold smile: "Boy, you got lucky and beat me once. Do you really think you have the strength I'll see what you have to say after this."

In his view, Ye Bufan's victory just now must have been partly due to luck. Plus, he only won a mid-grade elixir from him, the gap was almost negligible.

Now that he's unleashed his full power, he's not only able to refine fourth-order pills, but he's also brought out a high-grade fairy artifact furnace, along with an extraterrestrial fire. There's no way the opponent can win now.

Ye Bufan remained silent, only offering a slight smile.

The Dan furnace and heterofire could indeed enhance one's strength, but the gap between them and oneself was simply not something that external objects could make up for.

It's like having a cripple, even if you put the best running shoes on him, he can't outrun a Ferrari.

As a distinguished physician immortal, he could easily defeat his opponent with just half an arm. This kind of duel was incredibly boring. If it weren't for the Phantom Thunder Crystal, he wouldn't even bother with him.

Then the alchemy began. Ge Shengwen used a strange fire to ignite the medium-grade immortal artifact furnace, everything was smooth and flowing, with an imposing momentum.

Meanwhile, Ye Bufan sat listlessly before the alchemy furnace, his eyes half-closed, moving sluggishly and lazily, as if he could fall asleep at any moment.

At a glance, their differences in stature were immediately apparent.

But having learned from past experience, no one dared to readily predict the outcome this time.

Gu Fanjiu was even more so, squinting his eyes and stroking his beard, staring intently at Ye Bufan.

An outsider sees the commotion, an expert sees the trick, others can't tell anything, but as a ninth-rank immortal alchemist, he has realized something different about this young man.

Ye Bufan looked listless, but his control over the heat was masterful, not a single degree off.

It may appear slow, but it doesn't affect the alchemy progress at all.

Although Ge Shengwen seemed to be far ahead, the gap between them remained extremely narrow at every stage.

Fast and slow, movement and stillness, compared to each other there wasn't much of a difference, it was almost breathtaking.

Ge Shengwen was indeed quite skilled in alchemy. At this moment, he was completely focused, no longer looking at Ye Bufan, but instead diligently refining his own pills.

Under the blessing of the alien fire and the cauldron, his strength increased dramatically. About an hour later, the fragrance of elixir once again filled the entire hall.o wore heavy expressions. Since yesterday's council meeting, they hadn't seen King Qingye again, and they didn't know how to deal with the situation today.Inside the room, King Qingye's expression als...
