The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1347

…

The challenge raised by Xulo Yan has gained the attention of the people around them and even those that are seated in the stadium heard the challenge.

Xulo Yan has deliberately raised his voice so that the people would know that he is going to represent the Xulo family and kill the man who challenges and shamed their name.

"That is Xulo Yan, the youngest son of the Xulo clan patriarch… I heard he is a genius alchemist and at the same time a genius fighter…"

"Hahaha… That guy who challenged the young master of the Xulo clan is asking for his death."

"Everyone knows that Xulo Yan is a genius amongst geniuses… He is truly dead."

"Isn't that young woman beside him the daughter of the Xan clan?"

"Do you mean the Xan clan and the Xulo clan are going to form a bond through marriage? This is big news!"

The people seated in the stadium began to gossip as they look at the location where Xin Ja and Xulo Yan is standing.

A hint of displeasure is on the young woman's face as she did not want to entertain the wiliness of this junior of hers. Although she promised their master to take care of him, if he is looking for trouble then she would not support him.

Xan Xumi suddenly turns around and left Xulo Yan.

When Xin Ja saw this, he sneered.

"Hey, look! Your girl is leaving you because of your stupidity… Hahaha…" Xin Ja jeered.

Veins bulge on Xan Xumi's forehead as she heard the words of Xin Ja.

"Whose girl am I? I Xan Xumi does not belong to anyone!" she suddenly growled as she took a step forward.

Her casual step made her travel a couple of meters and arrives behind Xulo Yan's back. Then with a kick, she sent Xulo Yan flying down the stage.

Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the young woman rages on the stage.

No one dared stops her as her eyes then landed on Xin Ja.

She suddenly takes a step forward and then swings her palm to his face.

Xin Ja could see her palm but did not move.

Everyone who saw this sneered as they knew that the two men were in a world of pain for teasing the daughter of the Xan clan.

In the circle of the nobility in Rock Ledge city, Xan Xumi is known for two things. One, she is considered one of the top beauties of the city. The second is her fiery temperament which made those that like her have no choice but to like her from afar.

They can only dream about her but not approach her for fear of being sent flying by her vicious attacks.

"That guy is dead… How dare he tease the tigress…"

"Haha… We'll see a good show now!"

In the booth of the Xulo clan, the expression of the old man is already ugly while Xulo Peng has a sneer on his face.

Although his brother is a great alchemist, likes to practice martial arts, and is very strong, he lacks the ability to read people.

Seeing his younger brother flying out of the arena made him want to laugh out loud.

This time, Xin Ja saw the hand already inches away from his face, so he quickly moved his head and then return.

It was as if her hand just passes through him like he was a ghost.

The arena suddenly turned silent as everyone gawked at the scene before them.

Xan Xumi was dumbfounded and had been frozen with disbelief as she looks at her palm.

At this time, the first one to recover is the officers of the contest.

"Stop this now!" he shouted.

The crowd dispersed and went back to their line.

Xan Xumi was really angered when she discovered that the young man could easily dodge her attack. First, he insulted her, and now he made her lose her face. How could she suffer such humiliation then?

But she did not act and just glared at him for now.

It did not take long before Xin Ja is now able to take the next assessment with another batch.

But his eyes are not interested in the contest, instead, he is actually looking at the 6th and 7th tier herbs on the table.

He suddenly walks to the side where an official is standing.

"If I failed my refining, will you deduct my points?" he asked.

The official looks at him and then sneers.

If you fail your refining then you will surely lose, why would they need to deduct points or something?

So he shook his head.

"No…"

"Then I can refine and fail as much as I want, and not have any points deducted, right?" Xin Ja confirms.

The officer frowned as he did not know what is happening in this young man's brain. If he refines and fails then he would lose a large amount of Ki. The more one refines the more he loses his Ki and that would make one unable to finally concoct a pill.

Then that would mean that the person would surely lose.

The officer looks at Xin Ja like he was a fool, he did not answer and just shook his head.

With that reaction, Xin Ja knew that what he was thinking is possible. His eyes immediately glowed while looking at those herbs.

Actually, he has a lot of high-level herbs in his ring, but he did not want to use them as he is sure that he would be wasting them on refining. It is better to use free stuff.

Soon, he was given a number and stood behind a table with an alchemy pot, a cauldron, and some alchemy tools.

"The sixth batch will now begin!"

With that shout, the alchemist behind the table quickly walked to the table where they would choose the herbs they needed.

At this time, Xin Ja stood while thinking about what to pick, and behind him stood a number of people.

As he steps forward, he extended his hand to pick an herb.

When suddenly the herb he picked was taken by a person. He was a bit stunned and did not expect that such a thing would happen.

He stood there in a daze, but that alchemist acted like it was normal and continue picking other herbs.

He frowned for a bit and then looks at the table. Then he extended his hand to pick another herb, but another hand suddenly gets it.

The person acted the same and did not say anything.

Xin Ja suddenly extended his Absolute Sense and quickly notice the strange movements of the people behind him.

He did not want to believe it, but it seems that the influence of his enemies is truly terrifying. Then he could see the mocking gaze of Xulo Yan from afar and the glare of Xan Xumi who did not start concocting yet as if waiting for something.

With a smirk, Xin Ja extended his hand and was about to get an herb, but his hand suddenly picks another herb.

Ahhh!!!

Someone suddenly shouted as the person beside Xin Ja is already clutching his hand in pain.

The officials suddenly walked toward the guy and then looks at his hand.

"Oh, that's painful… that is Feloxia Barbona… a rare medicinal herb that when touched abruptly will turn stiff and then produces some needles on its surface…" Xin Ja suddenly explained while watching the scene.

"I suggest you give him an antidote… in 5 minutes, he would have a shortness of breath and then…" he then slides his thumb on his neck.

When the officers saw this they all look at the alchemist sitting on the judge's stage.

One of the alchemists stood up and then produces a bottle then handed it over to the officer. When the officer received the potion, he then has that alchemist drink the content.

That guy heaves a sigh of relief when he finished drinking the contents of the potion.

But then suddenly Xin Ja frowns…

"Hmm… I think I have identified the wrong herb. This one should be Gorgon Barbona… a far rarer medicinal herb than Feloxia… This is bad… the antidote for Feloxia is actually fatal to those that have been poisoned by Gorgon… I think the result is petrification…"

When they heard Xin Ja's words, the alchemist this time fainted in anxiousness.

All the alchemists in the area frowned as they really did not know what those herbs are. They have not seen them before in their entire life. Though they have read the book, they could not have memorized everything in that book.

So many of them began opening the alchemy book and researching.

Meanwhile, Xin Ja has already gathered his needed herb and quickly stood behind his table.

Meanwhile, those that have heard his words have opened the alchemy book and learned of those two herbs that really look the same. And even the effect is what that young man has said. This time, they are all worried as there are actually poisonous herbs in the bunch.

Ahh!!!

Suddenly, the alchemist that just fainted shouted and then quickly stood up. Then his face turned red while he clutches his stomach. But this time, the stadium was pin-drop silent and just looks at the weird reaction of the man.

Then everyone was flabbergasted after hearing a very loud sound coming from the guy.

Poot!!!
