“I, I didn’t do it on purpose, I just didn’t play well!”
That Wu Xiaoqi had a bitter melon face, his heart was in a state of distress, originally he was still able to go to the competition, but this is good, he didn’t even have a participation prize in the competition, it’s really a shame, his own place, was snatched away by such a kid who appeared out of nowhere.
However, for this loss, he was also convinced that he had lost, Qin Li, this kid, is really too powerful.
Moreover, for Qin Li, Wu Xiaoqi’s heart, was still filled with gratitude, because in his opinion, this kid, the reason why he didn’t choose a higher elixir to refine, must have been in order to save his face, not to have him lose too miserably.
It’s just that this kid, even if he was refining a fourth grade intermediate level elixir, that high skill in alchemy was also shown by him, leaving him behind, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been scolded so much by his own master.
“No, didn’t play well?”
That old man Wang Kui was even more furious, however, he still held back his anger and asked Wu Xiaoqi, “Then tell me, why did you refine it like this? What is the main reason?”
“Main reason?”
Wu Xiaoqi frowned and thought for a while before he said, “If the main reason is that, it should be because I’m too stupid, that’s why I’m like this, otherwise, it would definitely be much better!”
“You don’t even know why you lost?”
Wang Kui frowned again.
“Why did you lose?”
Wu Xiaoqi’s frown deepened, and after thinking about it, he actually had a look at Qin Li before saying, “Of course,, of course it’s because this kid is much more powerful than me, so I lost!”
Wang Kui almost didn’t spray out a mouthful of blood, this kid, what logic!
He looked at Qin Li, before he turned to Qin Li and asked, “Then Qin Li, let me ask you, do you know why Xiao Qi lost? Moreover, the loss was so severe that even the pills he was supposed to have concocted were concocted in such a way?”
Qin Li thought for a moment before he said, “It should be because in order to want to win in terms of speed, he used a large fire in the beginning, right, but that flame control wasn’t very good either, which made it a bit more than worthwhile instead. Of course, this is only a little, this later, he saw my furnace preheating faster than him, so, his heart is even more panicked, this panic under the words, is more and more mistakes, so this!”
Hearing this, Wu Xiaoqi’s face was embarrassed, because what Qin Li said was completely correct.
Wang Kui nodded his head in satisfaction before he said to Wu Xiao Qi, “Did you hear that, this is the reason why you lost, and even lost in a mess, you lost because of your own good mentality.”
Saying this, Wang Kui turned to look at those other guys who were previously in alchemy, and then seriously said, “We alchemists, when competing with others, by and by, what we have to remember is that our own mindset has to be set just right, we can’t be afraid of losing, but instead, we let ourselves be a bit overwhelmed, losing isn’t scary, what’s scary is that we lose to ourselves.”
After Qin Li heard this, he also nodded his head, with some hidden feelings in his heart.
And at this time, Wang Kui again said, “Even if someone else is ahead in preheating, and the elixir purification is also ahead, we don’t know, whether his elixir, at the end of the day, will directly blow up the furnace or not, so we don’t need to worry. Even after we know that we have already lost, we should likewise not give up or admit defeat, all we have to do is to do what we have yet to do. In this way, we won’t waste those spiritual herbs and medicines, and cherish every opportunity to refine pills and endeavour to make it the best we can.”
“Master, that’s great, looks like I didn’t come here for nothing today, I didn’t expect that I would actually be able to hear Master talk about so many alchemy aspects!”
Han Xinxin said with an instant smile after hearing this.
“You ah, you still say, I see that within so many disciples, you’re the laziest of all, you ran out to play for so long before, and now there’s only three months left, and you’re actually not panicking at all.”
Speaking here, Wang Kui looked at Zhou Yun behind him, and couldn’t help but say, “Look at your senior brother Zhou Yun, how hard he’s working, now he’s also a fifth-grade junior alchemist, same as you, and, he’s working very hard right now, said he’s going to work hard for first place!”
“Hehe, Master is laughing, I was just happy for a moment, talking for fun!”
Zhou Yun pretended to smile modestly, and again looked at Qin Li, his heart was even more determined to work hard to fight for the first place, to see if he could make a breakthrough again within these three months, and when the time came, he would step on the feet of this kind of rash young man who came out of nowhere, and even more, he wanted to let Han Xinxin know that he, Zhou Yun, was the genius.
“Well, it’s not too early, this registration is also registered, let’s go!”
Han Xinxin laughed and said again, “Master, I won’t be practising today, it’s almost time for lunch!”
“You ……”
Wang Kui was speechless for a while, this Han Xin Xin, the talent of alchemy is actually really good, unfortunately, this girl is a bit playful, otherwise, this time the competition, it is estimated that Han Xin Xin’s chances of winning the first place, that’s great.
As for Qin Li, after thinking about it, he came directly to that Wu Xiaoqi’s front, then took out that pill that he had just refined, and handed it to the other party, “I’m sorry, originally it belonged to your participation spot, lent to be snatched away by me, this pill, as a compensation for you, how about it?”
“Hmph, it’s good that you know!”
Wu Xiaoqi snorted coldly and directly took that elixir over, “You should indeed compensate me.”
Seeing that this fatty was quite amusing, Qin Li couldn’t help but smile at the other party once again before he followed Han Xinxin away.
“This guy, he’s not bad, at least he gave me an elixir back, not having to participate in the competition and getting a fourth grade intermediate elixir, it’s not bad!”
Wu Xiaoqi looked at the very good colour elixir in his hand and could not help but reveal a smile.
However, that Zhou Yun walked next to him and said softly, “Hehe, you’re still not losing out? Your face has been trampled on and rubbed on the ground by that brat, and you actually still feel that you’re not losing out?”
“What do I care, I was not as good as others in the first place, what is there to be ashamed of.”
Wu Xiaoqi knew that this Zhou Yun must be jealous, looking at the other party this was another cold smile, “Aiya, Zhou Yun ah Zhou Yun, how do I feel, Han Xinxin is very nice to that kid, personally bringing him over to enrol, moreover, still treating him so well, it can’t be, Han Xinxin likes that kid, right?”
“Impossible!”
Sure enough, Wu Xiaoqi’s sentence made that Zhou Yun really angry, Zhou Yun gritted his teeth, and huffed and puffed as he walked off to the side.
“Hmph, still trying to make me angry, I’m not a fool!”
After Wu Xiaoqi looked at Zhou Yun, he couldn’t help but sneer, again taking that elixir and smelling it, “En, it smells really good!”
After going out, Han Xinxin took Qin Li’s four people around the city and had another lunch before taking them back to the other side where that Han family was located.
“By the way, Qin Li, you guys haven’t met my father and grandfather yet, right, come on, I’ll take you guys to meet them!”
Han Xinxin, this girl, even drank a lot of Monkey Wine during her lunchtime meal, her face was already red at this time.
“Eh, this won’t be necessary, I came over this time, mainly because I was thinking of joining this association, and by the way, I’ll help you go to the competition, and then I’ll leave after the competition!”
Qin Li actually laughed bitterly after thinking about it.
After all, this Han family is too big, and there are too many strong people, that Han family’s old man, is the cultivation of the ninth grade of the realm of life and death, from the rubbish continent’s own, the cultivation is not high, with this together, I’m afraid that I will feel a faint sense of oppression.
“Hey, it’s fine, you’re my friend, moreover, if my grandpa knows that you’ve come over to help retrieve that Seven Star Furnace, he’ll definitely be very happy!”
Han Xinxin directly smiled, and should have persuaded Qin Li to meet her grandfather and father.
Qin Li was also helpless, this Han Xinxin decided on something that was obviously hard to stop, and could only follow her quickly to a large hall.
“Xinxin, these four people are?”
A red-haired old man, who was chatting with a middle-aged man, couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow when he saw Han Xinxin bring four people in and asked.
