I Can Give Talent

Chapter 118 – Alchemy Competition 6

"Kikiki, I'll imprison you first, and after everything is settled, I'll take your body. I don't think I'll find a better body than this here." The hunched old man waved his hand, immediately disappearing from the scene. Lin Wei was gone too.

Only the dark-robed man was left there on the ground still unconscious.

Back to the present,

Lin Wei was contemplating how to escape from the eerie prison. His cultivation had been sealed and his space bag had been taken.

Even if he managed to escape, a lot of important things would be gone. He would miss his Metal Bat Spirit Weapon a lot. No more bonking sounds after this.

Thankfully his ultimate treasure was still with him. It was a soul-bounded treasure so it merged with him and resided in his sea of consciousness. Nobody would know about this unless they used a soul-searching technique.

That hunched old fart said he would have something important to do soon. When that time arrived, he would take the chance to escape. Lin Wei sighed inwardly. He made a critical mistake this time. He would be more careful next time.

"I wonder how the Alchemy Competition is now. I hope Mia can get that spot for me." Lin Wei murmured.

His reliable source from the Alchemy Association told him that some spots for Mystic Realm would be given this time. But disaster struck him and now he was stuck in this place. He didn't get the fragment, he lost his things, and he might miss the chance to enter the Mystic Realm. It was raining bad luck.

In the Grand Stadium, Elder Godari had just announced the top ten for the first round.

"WHAT??? How is this possible??" Ori Oregano was furious.

The first round was over and the final ranking was released. Ori Oregano who was consistently at the 2nd place throughout the round dropped to the 3rd place.

Dammit!! Who is it? Who is this Anda Leyan? She must have been planning this from the start to humiliate me!

Ori gnashed his teeth in anger while looking around to identify who was Anda. It was already humiliating that he couldn't get the first place, he couldn't even claim the 2nd place. Utterly humiliating!

Meanwhile, Anda had a mischievous smile on her lips seeing Ori's furious reaction. She had started by identifying the harder ingredients first.

After she found out she was behind Ori Oregano, she maintained her pace until the last hour, then she sped up her pace by identifying all the easier ingredients she skipped earlier.

However, she was still amazed that the gap between her and the first place, Norin Homun was this big. She had almost identified all the real ingredients prepared for the round.

1. Norin Homun 23210
2. Anda Leyan 17430
3. Ori Oregano 17092
4. Amelina 14985
5. Natalie Clover 14870
6. Victor Goldstone 14440
7. Mia Fafifa 14115
8. Asmondol 14040
9. Lars Vomil 13935
10. Sarah Goldstone 12890

"Hahaha! Great! My panda wife got second place. She even kicked out that Ori kid from the second place. Knowing her personality, she must have planned this upset." Leyvi laughed and cheered at Anda's good result.

The rest of the Leyan Family also happily cheered for their Big Madam.

Are you sure it was alright to call your wife a panda loudly like that? Magnus thought to himself hearing that. If he called his short wife a dwarf he would get beaten by her.

"Did Sister Anda do that purposely? I told her about Ori pestering me last time." Selene asked Leyvi.

"Of course! Since you are one of her sisters now, she will look out for you. Just tell her if anyone bullies you, she will help you get revenge. She can plot many sinister schemes." Leyvi proudly said.

Selene was touched. "Sister Anda, you are so cool I love you so much!"

Magnus rolled his eyes. Aren't you supposed to be the one who should help her get revenge? Why are you only cheering from the sidelines?

Madam Goldstone saw this scene behind her and felt that her weird daughter fit very well with this weird family. It might be for the best after all. As her mother, obviously she wanted to see her daughter happy.

She only disagreed at first because the pushback from the family might make her life hard. However, since her husband had no problem with it, she was fine with it as well.

"Hahahaha! What happened Vitali? I don't see two Clover people in the top ten now. That Natalie girl even dropped a rank. It was the Goldstone that had two people in the top ten. Magnus must be laughing at you right now." Tordin Homun had been taunting and provoking Vitali Clover non-stop. Since it was a three-way rivalry, he had to mention Magnus too.

Vitali was obviously annoyed by Tordin that his veins popped out from his forehead. "Shut up Tordin, it was just the first round and even someone who wasn't an alchemist could identify some ingredients. Hmph, at least if I have children, I won't be partial like you. I heard you favor one and let the other one become degenerate, bringing many gigolos and causing trouble."

"What did you say? You are going too far, impotent bastard!" Tordin was enraged when he mentioned Dorin. It was a sore spot for him. His Nascent Soul aura exploded towards Vitali.

"Fucking deadbeat, who are you calling impotent?" He had a hard time conceiving children but it doesn't mean he was impotent. Being called that makes him furious. His aura also aimed at Tordin.

The aura clash caused a huge gust in the area causing some people to faint.

Suddenly a feminine voice sounded, "Your three families had always caused trouble whenever there were events like this. Haven't you learned how to behave yet? Every generation acted like this. Do I have to discipline you man child every time?"

Hearing this voice, Tordin and Vitali stopped and started sweating. Shit, they were too into their argument that they caused a huge commotion. They forgot about this woman.

Dammit, why is my family included too? I didn't do anything this time. Just scold that stupid Tordin and Vitali, leave me alone. Magnus complained in his mind but didn't dare to dispute the voice.

The audience was looking around. They could hear the voice but couldn't see the person talking. But to make the patriarchs of the Homun and Clover families cower, she must be a big shot.

The younger people might not know her but the older ones knew her voice very well. She was the City Lord of the Holy Cat City, Caterina Feline!

She was sitting at the most special seat in the Grand Stadium. It was a seat made solely for her. Her seat itself was a luxurious chair made to look like a cat with multiple cat decorations around her.

She had a young appearance wearing a skin-tight black jumpsuit that accentuated her lithe physique. It had a small window at the chest area that allowed people to peek at her cleavage.

On her lap was a beautiful-looking white cat with a beautiful tiara on her head.

For some reason, anyone below the Nascent Soul realm could not see her at all. They couldn't see her sitting leisurely on the cat-like special seat stroking the white cat. However, Tordin, Vitali, and other Nascent Soul and above experts could clearly see her.

"As usual, just pay the fine and compensate the people affected by your auras. If anything like this happens again, I'll make you the cat scratcher pole for my Luna here for a month before handing you over to the Law Enforcement team." Caterina said with a bored tone.

"Yes City Lord, we apologize for our actions." Both Vitali and Tordin accepted their punishment without trying to disagree.

Are kidding? Trying to disagree would just make it even worse. Their families also had a long history with her, which was being punished for causing trouble.

The previous patriarchs, the previous previous patriarchs, all had been beaten up by her for a similar reason. In fact, it was already weird that she didn't just beat them up right now and looked very lazy for some reason.

As the person who established the Holy Cat City, although she had to follow the laws and regulations established by the Protectors, she held more power and freedom here compared to other city lords who were merely appointed.

She looked very young despite her age being a few thousand years old. It meant that she was a cultivation genius who reached higher realms very fast or she consumed a beauty product to make her look younger.

In her case, the former was more likely to be the case. Even all the Nascent Soul experts here couldn't see through her realm now.

Leyvi looked at the cat-shaped special seat curiously. Was there a woman sitting there before?

After he heard the voice, he immediately noticed the gorgeous woman sitting lazily on the chair.

What the heck! She has cat ears! Oh wait, she was just wearing a cat ears headband. What a disappointment.

On the cat chair,

Oh?? A Foundation Building kid could actually see me? Interesting.
