I Have A Martial Arts Panel

Xu Ning looked at the gray pill in his hand with a satisfied expression.

Refining a superior-grade Extreme Strength Pill in one try was not easy for Xu Ning. There was a lot of luck involved.

“Xu Ning didn’t refine a Moonlight Pill…”

Pei Xuewen and the other core disciples looked over.

“Can these limited medicinal materials be used to refine this kind of pill?”

Surprise appeared in everyone’s eyes.

In their knowledge, the pills that could be made from these thirty medicinal materials did not have this kind of appearance.

“It’s actually a type of pill that we don’t know about…”

Pei Xuewen and the others had a new understanding of Xu Ning. Although they didn’t know the effect of this pill, Xu Ning being able to refine a pill that they didn’t even know about already showed that Xu Ning’s knowledge in alchemy had exceeded theirs.

‘Who is this Xu Ning?’

Pei Xuewen thought to herself, ‘With the foundation he displayed, there must be a great master in alchemy behind him, so why did he come to learn from Master…’

On the other hand, Gao Zhice had completely adjusted himself. He was immersed in the state of refining pills, so he didn’t notice that Xu Ning had already refined an Extreme Strength Pill.

Bang!

Gao Zhice finally refined a Moonlight Pill successfully.

‘Superior-grade!’

Gao Zhice was relieved.

For him, refining a superior-grade Moonlight Pill was already extraordinary.

‘I wonder if Xu Ning has refined a Moonlight Pill…’

Gao Zhice looked at Xu Ning.

‘That is…’

Gao Zhice saw a gray pill on Xu Ning’s table.

‘It’s not a Moonlight Pill!’ The corner of Gao Zhice’s eyes twitched. ‘It’s a pill I don’t know about…’

‘Where is this person from? How could he refine a pill that even I don’t know about?’

Gao Zhice felt that Xu Ning was extremely mysterious. He suddenly appeared and had unfathomable skills in alchemy.

Gao Zhice turned his head, feeling a little annoyed.

All along, Gao Zhice had been regarded as one of the top alchemy descendants in State Guqing. He had always been confident.

Only after meeting Xu Ning today did he feel powerless.

At this moment, Pei Xuewen and the others came to Gao Zhice’s side before the assessment was over.

“Moonlight Pill, superior-grade.”

Pei Xuewen first checked the medicinal pill refined by Gao Zhice.

“Good, wait to meet Master. You will definitely be selected as a core disciple.”

Pei Xuewen’s words confirmed Gao Zhice’s identity as an in-name disciple in a sense.

Gao Zhice thanked her in a low voice, but his expression was calm.

Pei Xuewen then walked next to Xu Ning.

“What kind of pill did you refine? Why haven’t I seen it before?”

Pei Xuewen held the pill in her hand and looked at it repeatedly.

Although she didn’t know what kind of pill this was, Pei Xuewen knew that the quality of this pill was superior-grade. “This is an Extreme Strength Pill.”

Xu Ning explained, “Swallowing this pill can allow you to maintain your peak state for three days and three nights. You won’t be tired, nor will you need to recover. You can ensure a long battle at your peak state.” After a pause, Xu Ning added, “It can also be used by an elementary-level dao realm master.”

“Peak state for three days and three nights? And it can even be used by an elementary-level dao realm master?”

Pei Xuewen seemed to be in disbelief.

Whether it was a mortal realm warrior, a void realm martial artist, or a dao realm master, everyone’s limit couldn’t be maintained for a long time. At most, they could last for an hour before entering a state of exhaustion. Even though this was the land of State Wansheng and the spiritual energy here was extremely dense, it was impossible to recover without calming down.

“You’re talking nonsense.”

Behind Pei Xuewen, a core disciple felt that Xu Ning was talking nonsense.

Xu Ning didn’t argue. He said, “I’m not exaggerating the effect. In exchange for this effect, the user just needs to suffer a backlash.”

“What kind of backlash?”

Pei Xuewen asked.

“Dying from exhaustion.”

Xu Ning said.

Pei Xuewen pursed her lips. “I can’t judge the quality of your Extreme Strength Pill. I have to bring it to Master and let her judge.”

“Sure.”

Xu Ning nodded.

Afterwards, Pei Xuewen left and walked deeper into the bamboo forest.

Pei Xuewen went to the deepest part of the bamboo forest.

There was an extremely wide bamboo structure, making it look like a small sect.

Pei Xuewen walked into a bamboo house.

There was a woman in her thirties sitting cross-legged in the room.

Although her appearance was young, she gave off an ancient feeling.

“What is it? Have you finished selecting the in-name disciples?”

The woman opened her eyes and looked at Pei Xuewen.

“Master…” The person in front of Pei Xuewen was the person Xu Ning was looking for, Leng Ran.

“Soon…”

Pei Xuewen said, “It’s just that in the second assessment, someone refined a pill that we have never seen before. We can’t determine its level and effectiveness, so we can only let you examine it first.”

“Oh?”

Leng Ran seemed interested.

“There are pills that you guys don’t know?”

Leng Ran knew very well the alchemy skills of her disciples. If they had never heard of this pill, it meant that it was very unpopular.

“What medicinal pill is it, let me see.”

Leng Ran was intrigued.

“Master, please take a look, this is the pill.”

Pei Xuewen handed the gray Extreme Strength Pill to Leng Ran.

Leng Ran took it and looked at it.

When she began to examine it, her expression was relaxed, but soon her expression became a little serious.

“Did that person say what kind of pill this is? And what is its effect?”

Leng Ran frowned.

When Pei Xuewen saw Leng Ran’s serious expression, she didn’t dare to hesitate. She quickly said, “That person said that this pill is called the Extreme Strength Pill. After swallowing it, it can allow an elementary level dao realm master to be at their peak for three days and three nights. But after the time limit, they will suffer a backlash and die.”

“Extreme Strength Pill?” After Leng Ran heard this, she had a complicated look in her eyes. “It really is an Extreme Strength Pill…”

“Call that person over, I want to see him personally.”

Leng Ran suddenly said.

Pei Xuewen didn’t expect Leng Ran to act like this.

After learning that this pill was an Extreme Strength Pill, Leng Ran’s expression seemed like she was facing a great enemy, with a hint of nervousness.

“Understood.”

Pei Xuewen’s heart skipped a beat when she saw Leng Ran’s reaction.

Pei Xuewen received the order and left. When she left, Leng Ran’s eyes instantly became sharp.

‘Extreme Strength Pill, isn’t this a pill that was developed by the Red Sea Demon Lord… If he knows about this pill and can refine it, he must be related to the Red Sea Demon Lord!’

Leng Ran was extremely afraid. ‘Red Sea Demon Lord, this person is neither good nor evil. It is difficult to figure out what his people mean by coming to me…’

Inside the room, Leng Ran fell into deep thought. ‘Who is this Xu Ning?’

Pei Xuewen quickly returned to the assessment venue.

“Xu Ning, my master asked you to see her.”

After Pei Xuewen returned, she did not hesitate.

“Master wants to see him personally?”

The other core disciples were also taken aback. Gao Zhice didn’t expect this either. “Go.”

Pei Xuewen urged.

“Okay.” This was beyond Xu Ning’s expectations.

‘It seems that the Extreme Strength Pill of the Red Sea Demon Lord seems to be very unusual. Even an alchemist of Leng Ran’s level is alarmed…’

However, Xu Ning felt that this was a good thing.

At least he could see Leng Ran in private now.

Afterwards, Xu Ning was brought to Leng Ran by Pei Xuewen under the gaze of all the candidates.

‘Is this the Leng Ran Senior Wan Ye asked me to find?’

When Xu Ning saw Leng Ran, he noticed that Leng Ran was staring at him cautiously. “Xuewen, stand down.”

Leng Ran said to Pei Xuewen. Pei Xuewen glanced at Xu Ning and responded, “Yes.”

After Pei Xuewen left, only Leng Ran and Xu Ning were left in the room.

“Senior Leng.”

Xu Ning saluted. Leng Ran was expressionless. “What is your name?”

“Xu Ning.”

Xu Ning was thinking about how to approach her about the rebuilding of the Swallow Heron Sect, but he felt that Leng Ran was hostile to him.

“Let’s not beat around the bush. Tell me, who are you to the Red Sea Demon Lord?”

Leng Ran went straight to the point. “The Extreme Strength Pill is the first dao realm pill created by the Red Sea Demon Lord not long after he entered the dao realm. If you can refine it, it means that you must be related to the Red Sea Demon Lord, and it is very likely that you are from the Red Sea Demon Sect. Why did you come to our Faint Bamboo Forest?”

Xu Ning suddenly realized when he heard her words.

So Leng Ran misunderstood that he was a member of the Red Sea Demon Sect.

“The Red Sea Demon Lord seems to be very intimidating in State Wansheng… Even a famous dao realm master alchemist like Leng Ran is so afraid of him…’

Xu Ning didn’t know much about the Red Sea Demon Lord in the past. He only knew from Wan Ye that the Red Sea Demon Sect was a top existence among the unofficial sects in State Wansheng. Even some people in the Imperial Court, even princes and kings, had personal ties with them.

Moreover, the Red Sea Demon Lord was extremely domineering. He was one of the top individuals in State Wansheng.

“Senior Leng Ran, you are mistaken.”

Xu Ning quickly explained, “I’m not a member of the Red Sea Demon Sect, I just learned the Red Sea Pill Sutra.”

“You learned the Red Sea Pill Sutra?!”

Leng Ran’s expression turned cold again. “The Red Sea Pill Sutra is the core dao realm alchemy technique of the Red Sea Demon Lord. If you weren’t a core disciple of the Red Sea Demon Sect, why would the Red Sea Demon Lord teach it to you?”

Xu Ning knew that he couldn’t explain any further.

Even if he answered truthfully, Leng Ran would not believe him.

Left without a choice, Xu Ning directly revealed his identity.

“Senior Leng Ran, look at this.”

The sect token that Wan Ye had given him appeared in Xu Ning’s hand. “Sect token?”

Leng Ran asked, “What about it, why are you showing me this?”

“This is the sect token of the Swallow Heron Sect.”

Xu Ning handed it over.

“The Swallow Heron Sect’s sect token?”

Leng Ran quickly took it and checked the back of the sect token.

Soon, Leng Ran confirmed the authenticity of this sect token.

“The sect token of the Swallow Heron Sect is obviously on Wan Ye, so why is it in your hands?”

Leng Ran’s tone became more and more unfriendly. Xu Ning even heard a hint of murderous intent.

“This sect token was personally handed to me by Senior Wan Ye. He asked me to rebuild the Swallow Heron Sect.”

Xu Ning answered truthfully.
