Yuria proudly smiled as she crossed her arms and asked, "How did you know?" "How could my woman not be special?" Damien chuckled. "You smooth talker…" Yuria mumbled in a coy tone as she beamed, feeling flattered. But then she looked at him with a narrowed gaze and asked, "But for real...how did you know? It could have been any hidden expert who could have concocted it, right? Maybe Alchemist Azrael was dealing with us behind the scenes." "Haha…" Damien couldn't help but laugh slightly, making Yuria…-

After Damien explained his plan, King Krisen had a difficult expression as if he was very hesitant about following through with the plan but at the same time did not vehemently discard it as well. Yuria bit her lips, not knowing whether her father would agree since Damien's plan sounded quite outrageous enough to shock anyone. If it was anyone else who said what Damien said, she might have thought of it as a joke. But since it was Damien and having an idea of what he was capable of, not only her but even…

"Oh, he was dead a long time ago, and please understand when I say that I can't reveal how exactly I killed him." Yuria nodded slowly while King Krisen said in an understanding tone, "Of course. That's understandable, and we also wouldn't like to know. A cultivator should always safeguard his life-saving secrets, sometimes from his loved ones so that his enemies wouldn't be able to use them as leverage." Even though King Krisen meant what he said, he still couldn't help but be curious about how Damien…

The one who won the third prize was quite happy with the number of Blue Spirit Stones he received since for him it was an astronomical amount, enough to increase his family's prestige by a lot back home. Maximus got some top-notch Supreme Tier Pills, and Damien took special notice to see whether those were his handiwork but was puzzled when he felt that it wasn't the ones he concocted. Since he always uses Fallen Flames to concoct Supreme Tier Pills, a special aura always emanates from the Supreme Tier…

"Sure. I will be happy to pay a visit to Your Highness later if you are interested," Damien said with a smile. "Then I will wait for the results," Damien said as he prepared to leave. "Wait! No need to go," Yuria said, making all the participants knit their brows. Yuria happily smiled and said confidently, "I think I have made up my mind for the winners. First, I would be announcing the winner of the first prize and it is none other than...Prince Tristen of our Gale Empire since he made a pill that made…

Yuria felt ripples in her soul as she felt her surroundings starting to fade, and instead, she was beginning to feel emotional as various precious memories she held dear began to play right before her. She then saw her parents from her past life looking proudly at her with smiles, conveying that they were happy to see her alive and healthy. She felt nostalgic and wistful, missing their warm embrace and love and the happy days they all spent together. She missed her usual bickering with her mother and…

Maximus came forward and said with a bright smile, "Your Highness, may this pill make your goddess-like beauty even more stunning." In the end Maximus couldn't really think of another pill to concoct because of the state his mind was in and at the same time he wanted to prove his skills to her since this wasn't a common beauty pill one could find in the market. Yuria's brows pulled together, seeing that it was yet another beauty pill, but when she closely inspected the yellow pill, she couldn't make…

A few of them let out a sigh of relief since they completed just in time, while some had to rush the process since they spent too much time thinking. And as for the others, they were unsure whether the pill they concocted was the right one. The head alchemist then looked up at where Yuria was sitting and bowed as he said, "Your Highness, please." Yuria knew that the head alchemist was asking her to come down and pass out her remarks on the pills the participants had concocted and choose the winners. She…

Twenty cauldrons and a basket of medical ingredients were arranged before all twenty participants who were sitting on the floor in a cross-legged position. Almost all were surprised seeing a basket of medical ingredients kept before them, wondering if they were supposed to make dozens of pills or something since there was no need for so many ingredients to concoct a single pill. Some got worried thinking whether they were supposed to concoct a new kind of pill where these many medical ingredients were…

Soon, the results came out, and only twenty people passed, which was very less in comparison to the number of people who attended it. The audience was astonished to see that only a few of them passed, but this also made them realize how difficult the written exam was and also the fact that these twenty participants were the best among the best in alchemy. Maximus entered the alchemy hall and smiled at the people who were cheering and praising him. However, his eyes were constantly wandering around,…
