Complete Martial Arts Attributes-Chapter 1804 Becoming Highly Popular! The Challenges Of Being A Ninth-Level Grandmaster! (4)

In fact, for them to achieve the ninth or eighth level of grandmaster at their age was a testament to their exceptionally strong talents. Otherwise, for most individuals, reaching even the third grandmaster level would already be quite remarkable.

However, compared to Wang Teng…

"Your talents are terrifying." Pu Yuanzhong shook his head and sighed. "You're born with great talents. Back in our day, it took us several hundred years to reach the grandmaster level while you, in your twenties, have already surpassed us, not to mention matching our level."

"Did Grandmaster Wang Teng join the Secondary Career Alliance?" Dong Yutang asked again.

"I did," Wang Teng replied.

"That's good, that's good. If a genius like Grandmaster Wang Teng doesn't join the Secondary Career Alliance, it will be a loss for the alliance." Dong Yutang heaved a sigh of relief.

Wang Teng felt helpless. Aren't these grandmasters exaggerating a little?

There were all kinds of geniuses in the universe.

He was just an eighth-level grandmaster in his twenties. It wasn't worth mentioning.

These three grandmasters were a little ignorant!

He lamented in his heart.

After a while, the three grandmasters finally accepted the truth and could communicate normally.

"By the way, Old Dong, how's the refinement of the Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill going?" Pu Yuanzhong suddenly asked.

Wang Teng was stunned when he heard the words "Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill".

What a coincidence!

The prescription for the Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill was dropped by Grandmaster Dong.

The alchemy room they were in wasn't the one where Wang Teng picked up the Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill attribute bubble. That was why he didn't think about it.

Hence, he was surprised when Pu Yuanzhong suddenly mentioned it.

However, it wasn't that surprising. Grandmaster Dong was a ninth-level grandmaster. He must have a certain degree of confidence in refining a supreme-rank pill like the Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill.

A ninth-level grandmaster alchemist was ready to advance to the divine level at any time. However, one must take things step by step. Before attempting to refine a divine-level pill, it was better to start with a supreme-rank pill first.

Moreover, Wang Teng saw that Grandmaster Dong was only at the peak of the heaven stage. If he wanted to advance to the divine level, he had to reach the universe stage first.

Most alchemists focus most of their energy on alchemy, so their martial arts cultivation tends to lag behind. For many alchemists, their martial arts cultivation was even bolstered by various precious pills and treasures, making them far less powerful than conventional martial warriors, let alone discussing combat strength.

This was also the reason why divine-level alchemists were so rare!

It wasn't easy to improve one's alchemy skills while also attaining the universe stage in martial arts cultivation.

Not everyone was as monstrous as Wang Teng.

"Sigh." Dong Yutang couldn't help but let out a deep sigh. He said, "This Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill is truly too difficult to refine. I'm afraid I'm going to let the two sirs down."

"Old Dong, you don't have to be like this. The Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill is not easy to make. I'm afraid it's very difficult to refine it without reaching the peak of the grandmaster level." Grandmaster Cecilia comforted him.

"Even though I understand that, it's still hard to accept that I've destroyed the star cores the two sirs worked so hard to obtain by slaying the male and female Azure Dragons," Dong Yutang sighed once more, shaking his head in resignation.

Cecilia and Pu Yuanzhong could only look at each other. They didn't know how to comfort him.

Alchemy inherently carries a risk of failure. The better the effects of a pill, the harder it was to refine it. Even if it failed, the person who entrusted it could not blame the alchemist.

However, the two sirs mentioned were eternal stage martial warriors. It wasn't advisable to offend them.

Besides, they wanted to nurture their descendants. Dong Yutang felt that he would let them down if he failed to refine the Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill.

"Speaking of which, why did those two sirs insist on asking you to refine it? The Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill is a supreme-rank pill. Wouldn't it be safer to ask an Alchemy Saint to refine it?" Pu Yuanzhong asked curiously.

Wang Teng was curious too. From their conversation, it was easy to guess that the ones who asked Grandmaster Dong to refine the Yin-Yang Dragon Essence Pill were at the eternal stage.

It shouldn't be difficult for two eternal-stage martial warriors to ask an Alchemy Saint to refine pills.

"Erm… I can tell you about this but don't tell anyone else," Dong Yutang was hesitant.

"Do you not trust us?" Pu Yuanzhong promised.

"Do you need me to step aside?" Wang Teng smiled. This was his first time interacting with these three grandmasters, and since they weren't familiar with each other, trust wasn't yet established.

"It's not that serious." Dong Yutang waved his hand and said, "Actually, it's just that those two sirs… are a little tight on money!"

Grandmaster Pu Yuanzhong and Grandmaster Cecilia looked at each other with strange expressions.

Wang Teng found it hilarious too. The two eternal-stage martial warriors were short of money. Why did this reason sound so funny?

"Old Dong, you're not lying to me, right?" Pu Yuanzhong had his doubts.

"Why would I lie to you? That's what those two eternal stage martial warriors said." Dong Yutang shook his head.

"Well, I suppose they might have some hidden difficulties," Pu Yuanzhong said.

"What will you do now? Do you still have the materials to refine another set?" Cecilia asked.

"I don't have any more materials with me. It's not that easy to get the star core of a male and female Azure Dragon. Moreover, it's the star core of an ultimate-stage imperial-level star beast," Dong Yutang said helplessly.

"The star core of an ultimate-stage imperial-level star beast!" Pu Yuanzhong and Cecilia were shocked.

Ultimate-stage imperial-level star beasts were equivalent to universe-stage martial warriors. Their star cores were extremely precious.

Moreover, it was extremely rare to find both a male and a female Azure Dragon. It was many times more expensive than just buying one of them.

In that case, it was understandable that the two eternal stage martial warriors were short of money.

Wang Teng had guessed this as well.

However, those two eternal-stage martial warriors were willing to give such precious materials to Dong Yutang, a ninth-level grandmaster, to refine. How much were they willing to risk?

At this moment, Dong Yutang looked at the wristwatch in his hand, and his expression suddenly changed.

"What's wrong?" Pu Yuanzhong noticed his expression and hurriedly asked.

"Those two sirs are coming," Dong Yutang said helplessly.

Wang Teng looked at him sympathetically. Speak of the devil. Grandmaster Dong was unlucky.

"What are you going to do?" Cecilia's expression also changed slightly as she hurriedly asked.

"What else can I do? I can only speak the truth." Dong Yutang shook his head and said, "It's a pity that my alchemy skills are still lacking. I was too confident."

"Did you promise them something?" Pu Yuanzhong asked in shock.

"I told them that I was 60% confident. I overestimated myself," Dong Yutang smiled bitterly. 𝒷𝓮𝒹𝓃ℴ𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

"You, how can you be so muddle-headed? How can supreme-rank pills be so easy to refine? If you were less confident, you wouldn't be like this now," Pu Yuanzhong said helplessly.

This was almost an unspoken rule for alchemists. Unless they were truly confident, alchemists usually wouldn't overpromise.

If he could refine it, everything would be fine.

However, if he could not refine it, it would be embarrassing, just like Dong Yutang's current awkward situation.

"It's largely because it's a favor from two eternal stage martial warriors. I couldn't refuse them." Dong Yutang sighed.

Pu Yuanzhong wanted to scold him, but in the end, he shook his head and sighed.

To be honest, if he was a ninth-level grandmaster, it would probably be difficult for him to refuse the favor of two eternal-stage martial warriors as well.
