"What condition?" Lin Yi said faintly.

"It's very simple. Didn't you say that you can make 100 pills in two hours? then let's have a competition. We'll set a time limit of two hours. I'll make one pill and you'll make 100. Do you dare to compete?" Ren Zhongyuan laughed coldly. He would never believe that Lin Yi could make a hundred pills in two hours. He could use this to make Lin Yi slap his own mouth!

"Hehe, your way of competing is really weird. To think that you can say it." Lin Yi smiled faintly and nodded,"Fine, I've been kind since I was young. I'll satisfy your pretentious desire this time. I'm just afraid that you won't admit it when you lose."

"Hmph, I've already said what I wanted to!" Ren Zhongyuan threw the recipe to Lin Yi without a second thought, afraid that Lin Yi would go back on his word. No matter how he looked at it, the result was already set in stone. Those who don't admit to their debt are fools!

The others looked at each other, but Huo yudie and ning Xuefei didn't seem worried at all. They'd seen Lin Yi refine pills with their own eyes, and they were more confident than Lin Yi himself.

"Alright then, let's help each other prepare the ingredients for Lin Yi and Ren Zhongyuan to start their own furnace!" At Liu Ziyu's command, a group of East province's disciples immediately spontaneously began to help the two of them. This matter concerned their lives, so everyone wanted to be diligent and perform well at this time. Otherwise, what if they didn't have enough antidote pills in the end and were left behind?

After returning to his room and having the ingredients delivered, Lin Yi closed the door and started making the elixir. It was his first time making an antidote like this, but a mere fifth grade elixir was nothing difficult for Lin Yi now.

Furthermore, the Shennong medicinal cauldron had just been upgraded by han Jingjing. Refining fifth-grade pills was a piece of cake, especially now that it could be used to refine large amounts of pills. In the past, it could only store ten sets of ingredients at a time, but now it could store thirty sets at a time!

Everyone waited nervously. In less than two hours, there was no movement from Ren Zhongyuan's side, but Lin Yi had already pushed the door open and left.

"How is it?" Liu Ziyu quickly went up to him personally. She was a little nervous when she thought about the bet between Lin Yi and Ren Zhongyuan. She shouldn't have hesitated so much just now and should have directly rejected the bet. After all, what if Lin Yi couldn't refine 100 pills and couldn't see her disciple in the future?

Lin Yi smiled as he took out a big box and handed it to her, "I'm glad I did. One hundred and twenty pills should be enough to detoxify everyone. You can distribute them to everyone."

Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment, and then they started to get excited. They looked at Lin Yi as if he was a monster-he could produce 120 fifth-grade pills in less than two hours! Was this guy even human?!

They couldn't care about anything else and each of them took an antidote pill. After they digested the medicine, they realized that the poison in their bodies had completely disappeared. Their last concerns were dispelled, and they all came over to Lin Yi to thank him. He saved their lives, after all!

Previously, they cooperated with Ren Zhongyuan to run Lin Yi down because they felt that he was their support and Lin Yi was indeed suspected of poisoning them. However, now that they looked at it, Lin Yi's leg was 10000 times thicker than Ren Zhongyuan 's. Who cared who poisoned him?

This guy was at least a fifth-grade Alchemist. If he didn't take the opportunity to please such a big-ass Alchemist, he would definitely be a fool.

Lin Yi, Huo yudie, and ning Xuefei didn't know whether to laugh or cry at these fence-sitters. Although the East Province Academy was a gathering place for geniuses, there were still fence-sitters everywhere. If you were strong, they would be your friends. If you were weak, they would be your enemies. Only the weak would understand the hardships of survival.

However, this was good as well. At least it was better than everyone supporting Ren Zhongyuan. It wouldn't be as easy for Ren Zhongyuan to fan the flames and make them target Lin Yi.

Of course, not everyone was a fence-sitter-people like Yi Xiaotian and Yao Jiali, on the other hand, had really interesting expressions on their faces. They felt like they'd eaten a fly after taking Lin Yi's detox pill, feeling really bad but had to swallow it down ...

After waiting for everyone to be detoxified, Ren Zhongyuan pushed open the door and walked out with bloodshot eyes. He saw Lin Yi in the crowd and his heart skipped a beat. However, when he saw that Lin Yi's hands were empty, he immediately raised his head.

"Haha, I told you that you're playing tricks. 100 pills in two hours? Hmph, there's not even one now. If I were you, I would have jumped into the sea to commit suicide out of shame. How could I still have the face to stand here? There's no one else as thick-skinned as you!" Ren Zhongyuan took the opportunity to mock him.

"Oh, then how are you? how many have you refined?" Lin Yi asked faintly.

"No more, no less, just one! I mean what I say, even if it's just one pill, it's much better than a liar like you who said 100 but can't even take out a single pill!" Ren Zhongyuan laughed complacently and raised the antidote high up in the air. He faced the crowd and said,""Who wants this antidote pill? first come, first served. We'll have to wait another two hours for the next one!"

Ren Zhongyuan thought that everyone would rush to Lin Yi's side after he shouted. Perhaps even Huo yudie would come to him after seeing Lin Yi's true colors. However, it turned out that no one was moved, let alone Huo yudie, who he was thinking about.

It was only at this moment that Ren Zhongyuan suddenly felt that something was amiss. Why was everyone looking at him with a strange expression? they did not look excited at all as if they had found a life-saving straw. Instead, they looked at him as if he was an idiot?

In particular, Yi Xiaotian and the others had strange expressions on their faces. It was as if they were trying their best to remind Ren Zhongyuan of something. However, Ren Zhongyuan could not understand what they were trying to say. Ren Zhongyuan could not help but feel a little lost. What was going on?

"Martial sister Yu die, I'll give this one to you first. I think you understand my intentions, right?" Although Ren Zhongyuan muttered in his heart, he still put on an infatuated look as he walked through the crowd. He wanted to personally hand the antidote to Huo yudie and take the opportunity to kiss her.

However, before he could reach Huo yudie, Liu Ziyu had already blocked his way. She looked at him as if he was a clown and said coldly,""Don't waste your energy. Lin Yi made a hundred and twenty antidotes and gave them to everyone. Everyone has already been cured, so you can keep this one for yourself! If I really waited for you to come out, you'd be long dead!" (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
