A golden Elixir Cloud. Could Darryl top that?
"Only a great teacher like Ophelia could produce such a skilled student!" somone exclaimed as everyone looked at Ophelia.
She said nothing and took a sip of tea. She knew how skilled Ewan and this was all expected of him.
"Wow, a golden Elixir Cloud!" Sara exclaimed. She turned to Darryl and said "Come on, Darryl, we don't want to lose!"
Darryl smiled but did not say anything though he praised Ewan secretly.
You needed to have great skills to be able to create a golden Elixir Cloud. It was no wonder Ewan was so confident.
BAM!
Suddenly, Ewan's cauldron started to vibrate. An elixir pill flew out of the cauldron and Ewan caught it with ease in his hand.
Everyone looked at Ewan hopefully.
He smiled and opened his palm, showing the elixir to everyone.
They were all stunned. It was a pill with an iridescent sheen! What kind of pill has an iridescence to it?
Ophelia nodded in approval as she said "Ewan explain to Zoran what elixir you just produced."
Ewan laughed and proudly said "This pill is the Five Spirit Pill. It's named after its effect. Cultivators who consume it will see improvement in these five areas; tempering of bones, increase Internal Energy, the calmness of the heart, eternal beauty, and immunity against poisons."
Everyone's jaws dropped at her disciple as she nodded in approval. He did not disappoint.
Ewan walked toward Rachel and handed her the Five Spirit Pill. "Rachel, I've always wanted to amke an elixir pill for you. I finally had the chance. This Five Spirit Pill is for you. One of the effects is the eternal beauty, so I hope you will always be gorgeous."
"Thank you, Ewan!" Rachel was ecstatic. She knew that this was the man she could count on in the future and was worth handing over her hand in marriage.
The crowd was in serious discussion as it looked like this competition had a clear winner. They started looking at Darryl with an awkward expression.
Darryl was not in a hurry as he carefully tended to the fire. His cauldron was extremely quiet, and there was no action going on at all, not even a wisp of cloud. At that, many were impatient to wait for him.
Ophelia shook her head in disappointment. Was the previous Elixir competition just luck? Had she misjudged his skills? Perhaps he was not skillful in producing elixirs after all.
"That's it, Darryl. Admit defeat." Ophelia could take it no longer. She looked down on Darryl and said "You have clearly lost this competition. You might not be skilled yet, but I'll teach you sometime. You could be as great as Ewan."
"Oh?" Darryl laughed as he looked at Ophelia. "Chairlady Lane, I'm afraid you'll be under-qualified. The other way round would make more sense."
