Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 993 Second Round“s Completion

”Iʼll now announce the results!” Elder Belias Alstreim pursed his lips and moved.

He arrived before the first person who passed and looked at the vial she held in her hands. He politely borrowed it to examine and glanced at the pills for two whole seconds before he looked at the spectators and announced.

”Sophie Alstreim - Eight Normal-Tier Bi-Energy Condensing Pills!”

Sophie Alstreim nodded her head with a smile as she had already confirmed it by herself. At this time, her job was to ʼfightʼ with the examiner if the examinerʼs verdict was wrong. After all, not all Normal Tier pills looked the same as there would be tiny details of differences, making it difficult for an alchemist to grade the pill.

”Good!” Elder Belias Alstreim nodded in appreciation as he overly smiled at Sophie Alstreim before he moved to the next.

”Augustus Alstreim - Six Normal-Tier and a single Advanced-Tier Bi-Energy Condensing Pills!”

*Woah!~*

Sounds of astonishment echoed in the spectatorʼs seat. After all, it was the first Advanced Tier Pill to be made in their sight.

”Good!”

Elder Belias Alstreim moved on to the next one, and next, as he kept announcing the results of all the others who passed, and since their skills were known to be low, they unsurprisingly had a low amount of people and even Crude Tier Bi-Energy Condensing Pills among them.

Elder Belias Alstreim floated towards the last participant and smiled as he looked at the vial. His eyes flashed with appreciation before he announced.

”Claudius Alstreim - Four Normal-Tier Pills and four Advanced-Tier Bi-Energy Condensing Pills!”

The Grand Elders and Elders all looked at each other and nodded in appreciation. This time, there was a true alchemist who would eventually join their ranks in the future, or so they were convinced. And by true alchemists in their perspective, it meant Mid-Level King Grade Alchemist and above!

Becoming a King Grade Alchemist is easier when compared to the sheer amount of knowledge and skill that they must gain at this level!

The people were also shocked since they didnʼt think much of Claudius Alstreim.

”Four Advanced-Tier Pills!? Who is this person!?” Many clamored as they simultaneously background checked Claudius Alstreim with their connections, but no matter how they checked, they arrived at the conclusion that he was from one of the towns of the Alstreim Familyʼs territory.

They were in deep disbelief at finding such a fact.

In truth, they would look down upon people who arrived here from other cities, but this person was from a town they have never heard of before! It was not that the town didnʼt exist, but they didnʼt even deign to look at the people who come from towns.

Even so, some still cast a look at Claudius Alstreim in derision despite his outstanding achievement. They even started booing, and like sheep, people who were silent but incredibly jealous also started to follow them in making stupid sounds.

ʼSo itʼs like he came from the countryside...ʼ Davis could understand the jealous peopleʼs booing, but... he could see that Claudius Alstreim faintly sneered at them while remaining indifferent to their derision. It seemed that he was also looking down on them from a different perspective.

ʼNo wonder Claudius Alstreim has such a bearing even when being humiliated... It is forged through countless experiences of being looked down upon...ʼ

The sound barrier generated from the formation seemed to be inactive the moment the second round finished, so Claudius Alstreim could still hear their echo of jealousy. It was music to his ears.

Sophie Alstreim and Augustus Alstreim narrowed their eyes as they looked at him in all seriousness. They could honestly feel the threat radiating from him, the threat that they didnʼt feel before as he was acting all clumsy and easygoing. They made a mental note to not have their legs swept under their watch.

”Therefore, the ranking for this round will be...” Elder Belias Alstreim floated towards the top, right in the middle of the four pillars of the stage. His voice made the people shut up, making the stage silent again.

”Claudius Alstreim takes the first place, Augustus Alstreim second place, Sophie Alstreim third place...” He announced the ranking till the fourteenth place, leaving only two who were seated in the second tier spectator seats as they were seeded.

”This marks the end of the second round while the third, the last round will soon take place within half an hour! It is already known that the participants will have to prepare their own ingredients for pill concoction and that there is no limit for the pill that they could create!”

”Alchemist Davis whose participation was unexpected will freely receive the ingredients from our side. As long as the ingredientsʼ grade is within the Low-Level King Grade, it would be promptly delivered from our ingredient warehouse!”

Davis simply nodded his head in acknowledgment.

Elder Belias Alstreim knew that there was no way Alchemist Davis would ask for Low-Level King Grade Ingredients with his current prowess, so he was not afraid of adding this condition to publicize how magnanimous and generous the Alstreim Family remained.

”Nevertheless...” Elder Belias Alstreim smirked before he continued after a short pause.

”The ranking of the final round is determined by the grade and quality of the pill, so the participant who concocted the highest grade with the highest tier will become the winner of the last round, becoming eligible for not only receiving the unusually high rewards from us but also the grand reward awarded by the Dragon Queen!”

Boisterous cheering erupted from the crowd as most of them looked at the exceedingly gorgeous Dragon Queen in reverence. It was not fake or politeness, but they truly revered both her beauty and her strength from the bottom of their heart since she drove the Aqua Flood Dragon away from destroying their city.

They felt like they could personally kiss her feet for this feat!

The men didnʼt feel humiliated at the thought since she was a blindingly beautiful woman! Instead, they knew they were ones who were blessed by the heavens to even be able to touch her feet.

The Dragon Queen was an existence who was completely out of their bounds! They didnʼt even deserve to look at her face straight!

ʼIt is time...ʼ

Davis waited for Dalila Leehan to stand up and leave to the Pill Arena, but since she didnʼt seem to be not in any hurry, he stood up and left towards the exit.

And as he previously expected, Dalila Leehan instantly stood up and followed him towards the exit.

Davis possessed a wry expression on his face, feeling that he didnʼt want to be lectured by this self-righteous woman who knew nothing about their past. He didnʼt blame her, but he didnʼt want to interact and reason with her either.

They crossed the sky and rendered the place where the first round took place. Davis flew without stop, hoping that she would not do anything, but his hopes were destined to be crushed!

”Wait!” A commanding voice echoed!

Davis ignored her call and approached the door to the Pill Arena.

”Hey! I said, wait!!!” Dalila Leehan screamed in frustration.

Davis stopped and turned to look at her.

”What?”
