Pill dao battles were one of the most popular in the world of htly inferior towithanticipation

Of course, it was difficult to coh Eh to co and fair question Therefore, he asked the two sides to agree on the method of coree on it

The second part was the significantly harder of the two After sootiations, the two sides finally arrived at an agree different pill-related fields

The first was refining pills; a rather straightforward and pris

The second was pill analysis This round required both sides to present the other with an unknown pill Each party was to analyze the pill The side that identified more materials would be declared the winner As for exactly which pills were eligible, anything went as long as it was effective in confounding the opponent Naturally, no cheating was permitted An automatic loss would be awarded if any was found

The third was the opposite of the second Both sides would prepare correct and incorrect ones materials ahead of time Their opponent had to find the type of pill most appropriate to the materials prepared, and successfully refine it If both sides succeeded, the side that did so first would win

Both sides had to send in three different competitors As for as chosen to compete for what, that would be decided via random draw

“I have no expertise with pills, so I’ll refrain frohed E Chen nodded “For the pill battles, I will take Huang’er and Cloudsoar Monarch” A the four ht not be as good as Emperor Peerless in actuality, but neither person had a chance against a candidate from Pillfire City Therefore, it was better to soreat emperor

“This is just the first round,” Jiang Chen smiled back “It doesn’t matter whether in or lose It’s fine to test the waters for now”

These ords of consolation Truthfully, each and every one of the thirteen rounds was important However, he didn’t want his subordinates to worry too much It had taken quite a bit of effort to pump up morale He wasn’t about to let it deflate so easily

As he had foreseen, the unknown pill king was extremely adept at his art While the , the prowess he began to display in the middle of a round was equivalent to at least a ninth rank pill king’s He perforh Cloudsoar Monarch perfor his actual skill level, it wasn’t enough to overco Ce finished the refinement process a full thirty her quality than his opponent’s to boot
