Chapter 140 - Passing all tests

While Ye Zong and Xin Lan were busy dealing with everyone around them, the second round of competition had already begun.

At this time,

"The next test is called Soul Power Control…"

Elder Cheng smiled as he looked over the candidates. After which, he took out a dark-black metal bead from his Storage Ring. The surface of the metal bead was extremely smooth. Moreover, it did not contain the slightest luster. The complete-black color gave it a kind of heaviness.

"This is a bead that has been formed from spiritual metal. It is called Soul Testing Bead. If this thing is held by a hand, it will appear extremely light. However, it will appear extremely heavy to one's soul…"

"When this Soul Power Control test begins, many of these Soul Testing Beads will scatter down from the ceiling. You are required not to use any Dou Qi. Instead, you will use your Spiritual Strength alone to support them. The one who takes the most Soul Testing Beads will be in the top segment of this test. The ranks will be determined based on the number of beads received."

Elder Cheng took a glance at Cao Ying when he spoke until this point. After which, his eyes turned to Xiao Feng. He smiled and said, "The record of this test of one's Spiritual Control is also set by Cao Ying. Back then, she had picked up 89 beads. This record has yet to be broken even now."

Immediately numerous eyes around the hall immediately gathered on Xiao Feng when they heard Elder Cheng's words. They wanted to know if Xiao Feng's control over his soul power was good and could he beat all of Cao Ying's record by making his own earth shattering records.

The magnitude of the Soul Power Value represented whether the Strength of Soul of an alchemist was strong. However, a true alchemist did not merely just look at the strength of their soul. If one wanted to refine a high tier medicinal pill, one would require an exceptionally agile and high degree of control over their Spiritual Strength. Otherwise, it would end up being similar to using a large hammer to smash an egg. There was plenty of strength, but the egg would also turn into smithereens…

Only a person with a powerful Soul and extremely familiar with his Spiritual Control could truly be called an alchemist!

If Xiao Feng could control his huge soul power then he will definitely become the Campion, after all even if Cao Ying improved in last few years she will definitely not improve so much that she will be able to match Xiao Feng.

Everyone present played their own abacus in their hearts. If Xiao Feng really had strong soul power control then, I am afraid that most of the people will try their best to please Ye Zong and Xin Lan.

Cao Ying on the side bit her rosy lips. She didn't believe that Xiao Feng could really control such huge soul power. If he really could then just like Dan Chen said, she is destined not to win this Dan meeting.

Xiao Feng, and rest of people gathered around the testing ground.

Immediately huge number of soul testing beads started to fall on the ground.

Looking at huge number of soul testing beads scattered in the sky. Xiao Feng didn't use too much power. He formed a net using his soul power and immediately grabbed all soul testing beads falling towards him.

He easily caught all them.

Xiao Feng's action shocked everyone present.

It was common sense that soul power shouldn't be scattered around in such tests because this would lead to being unable to have enough soul power to hold the soul testing bead. Yet, Xiao Feng caught all of his soul testing beads by forming a huge net using soul power.

Although these people couldn't perceive Xiao Feng's soul power net but all of them could see that soul beads around the whole arena stopped in the air and then they flew besides Xiao Feng.

Looking at such situation even fools would know that Xiao Feng had scattered his soul power all around the arena yet he was still able to grab every falling soul testing bead.

Looking at large number of black beads around Xiao Feng, Cao Ying understood that current her was no match for Xiao Feng but even so, her eyes were still stubborn. She seemed to determined to fight till the end.

After the test was over Xiao Feng had grabbed most of the soul testing bead. The total number was above thousand.

He stopped after reaching thousand because he though this was enough. He didn't need to show much strength.

Other than Xiao Feng rest of contestants scored less than even fifty because Xiao Feng had took most of the soul testing bead.

Xiao Feng once again won the first place. After this round of test was over and next round of test began.

The third test was soul power attack test which tested the attack power of the souls of everyone.

This round was won by Xiao Feng with crushing strength. He easily stunned all the four people around with him, using only little bit of his power.

Winning all of the three test, Xiao Feng qualified for the finals.

With Xiao Feng's show of strength, almost all the clans other than those who has bad relationship with Ye Clan tried to show favours towards Ye Zong and Xin Lin.

Unlike the original Cao Ying didn't challenge Xiao Feng like she did to Xiao Yan. Thus, she didn't experience defeat against Xiao Feng.

At this moment she looked at Xiao Feng who had returned to Xin Lan with fiery look. Even though she knew that he was strong and she would definitely be defeated but Cao Ying still wanted to fight against Xiao Feng in Alchemy.

Xiao Feng who had just took Xin Lan's hand noticed Cao Ying's eyes. He just shook his head and didn't think too much.

Looking at Xin Lan who was happily smiling, Xiao Feng also smiled.

At this time Dan Xuan with Dan Chen besides him came to Xiao Feng.

"Congratulations for winning." Dan Xuan congratulated Xiao Feng with a smile on his face..

"Thanks." Xiao Feng gave a polite reply. Although Dan Xuan couldn't interest him Dan Chen besides him could, thus he still gave a polite reply.

After replying Xiao Feng looked at Dan Chen.

Immediately Dan Chen shrank behind Dan Xuan. She looked timid and fearful.

"Don't mind her. She is my cousin and she is quite fearful towards outsiders." Dan Xuan saw Xiao Feng looking at Dan Chen and said.

He was thinking in his heart why Xiao Feng who never paid much attention to anyone other than the girl called Xin Lan during the whole time yet he still paid so much attention to Dan Chen.

Was there something special about Dan Chen other than Alchemy that he didn't know?

Or, was he intrested in her?

"Ah, it's okay, I don't mind." Xiao Feng shook his head and continued saying with a smile while looking at Dan Chen, "Miss Dan Chen my proposal is always valid. If you change your mind you can come to me."

"Okay, I... I will think about it." Dan Chen replied with timid look. Although she only came into contact with him once but he really occupied a special position in her heart because of their unexpected first meeting. Xiao Feng was special in her heart because he could touch her without worry. Because of her special feelings she didn't know how to talk to Xiao Feng.

Looking at Dan Chen who was but timid Xiao Feng smiled. He said, "By the way, I will help you a bit."

"Help." Dan Chen tilted her head. Her pale white face had confused look on it.

"You will understand." Xiao Feng spoke with a gentle. He really felt that current Dan Chen was quite cute. Although she was a bit weak and timid but Dan Chen really had her own charm.

Immediately before Dan Xuan or Dan Chen could react, Xiao Feng's fingertip pressed Dan Chen's forehead. Then a light green light blossomed at his fingertip and it quickly got into Dan Chen's body.

Dan Chen felt her body becoming warm. She felt like she was soaking in a hit spring. Her while body became relaxed and her face showed look fo enjoyment.

Looking at Dan Chen who had narrowed her eyes and showed comfortable look. Xin Lan, Dan Xuan and Ye Zong were a bit inexplicable, they didn't understand what Xiao Feng wanted to do.

Dan Xuan didn't feel any malicious intention from Xiao Feng thus he didn't stop him and let him continue when he saw the look on Dan Chen's face.

A while later,

Dan Chen's pale face had become rosy. Her body no longer looked frail. She looked like a young girl full of vitality.

Looking at Dan Chen who had changed from frail looking to a girl full of vitality everyone in hall including Xin Lan, Dan Xuan and Ye Zong were shocked.

Just now everyone in the hall was paying attention to Xiao Feng because of his outstanding performance just now.

Dan Chen was a genius Alchemist but God seemed to have been jealous of her sky defying talent, thus her body was too frail. Dan Clan had invited many alchemist and tried to heal Dan Chen but nothing was effective and yet just a touch from Xiao Feng healed her completely.

Knowing about Dan Chen, how could they not be shocked.

Feeling the changes in her body, Dan Chen was shocked. She didn't think her problem of having frail body was so easily solved by Xiao Feng.

Looking at Xiao Feng, Dan Chen's gaze had changed from before. If the previous her considered Xiao Feng special just because of him being able to contact her then the current thinks he is special from the bottom of her heart.

Her illness which no one could dure was so easily cured. How could it be possible for her not to produce special feelings for him.

"Um, thank you."

"Thank you very much." Dan Chen bowed to Xiao Feng and solemnly thanked him. Her tone was full of gratitude.

"It's okay. It doesn't matter, after all this type of thing is too easy for him." Xiao Feng waved his hand. He didn't seem to care about the matter of easily healing Dan Chen.

"No matter what, your excellency has healed my cousin. Our Dan Clan will remember your kindness forever. If your excellency ever need help, our Dan Clan will definitely support you." Dan Xuan stepped forward and also thanked Xiao Feng. His tone was serious and full of gratitude when he spoke to Xiao Feng. He was really grateful that Dan Chen's weak body was healed.

"Me, I don't need anything from Dan Clan. It's just, Miss Dan Chen please think about my proposal carefully." Xiao Feng said while smiling. There really wasn't anything in Dan Clan which could interest him in the slightest.

After a while of talking, Cao Ying also joined in. Cao Ying's relationship with Dan Chen was quite good so she congratulated Dan Chen for becoming healthy and she also thanked Xiao Feng for healing Dan Chen.

With Cao Ying joining in, everyone talked with each other for a while and then separated after saying goodbye.

During this conversation, the little bit of jealousy and prejudice that Cao Ying had against Xiao Feng was eliminated. She has now become.friends with Xiao Feng and Xin Lan.

Dan Chen and Xiao Feng's relationship also improved a lot after this incident. She talked a lot more with Xiao Feng and her favourability was already above friends. Thus, she also became Xiao Feng's friend just like Cao Ying.

As for Dan Xuan, he wasn't paid much attention by Xiao Feng.

"Let's go." Looking at Dan Chen and Cao Ying's leaving back, Xiao Feng took Xin Lan's hand and said with a smile.

"Umm." Xin Lan nodded and followed Xiao Feng.

Looking at Xiao Feng and Xin Lan leaving, Ye Zong also followed behind them.
