An average person might not find the Purplecloud Cauldron’sbat function useful, but its usefulness


    toward an alchemist could not be understated. After all, its sess rate was boosted by twenty


    percent!

    By allowing Emery to use it, Danie was tantly handing her a clear advantage over Severin.


    Knowing that Fend deemed her actions somewhat unjust, Danie shamelessly remarked with a


    smile, “She insisted on using my cauldron because she was afraid of losing”


    The surrounding elders were not pleased to hear Danie’s remark, for they felt that she had gone too


    far


    in protecting her apprentice. Her actions left Fend speechless, but since the contest was already


    underway, all he could do was remain silent and hope that Severin might not have it too difficult.


    Meanwhile, Raymond and Celeste were showed a simr disapproval of Danie’s actions, Celeste,


    being a sixth–grade alchemist herself, was particrly disgusted by Danie’s coddling. The


    Purplecloud.


    Cauldron was a four–chambered cauldron that functioned to increase the alchemist’s sess rate by


    twenty percent. The percentage rate seemed small, but it was significant enough to possibly impact the


    quality of Emery’s pills.


    Raymond turned to Celeste and asked, “I’m curious to know your opinion on Severin’s chances of


    winning.


    Celeste frowned and found his question to be rather tricky to answer. After a moment of silence, she


    replied, “Not very high, if I’m honest. Severin might have surpassed Emery in the Alchemy Tower


    rankings,


    but the fact remained that Emery is Danie’s apprentice. The added guidance that she received, and


    the


    high–quality cauldron she had been allowed to use, are factors that seem to tip the scales toward


    Emery’s


    favor.”


    By Celeste’s reckoning. Severin’s remarkable alchemical talent and sess in reaching the sixth floor


    of the Alchemy Tower in half a month were feats worthy of admiration. However, achieving victory


    against


    Emery and the Purplecloud Cauldron might require one to have the ability of a sixth–grade medium–


    rank


    alchemist.


    Less than half a month had passed since Severin entered the sixth floor, and the time was too short for


    Severin reach that level of proficiency. Even Celeste, with her alchemy–inclined talent, took three


    months


    to craft a sixth–grade medium–rank pill like the Crystal Spring Pill after entering the sixth floor.


    Raymond frowned. “I suppose I should prepare myself to be disappointed today. I thought I’d get the


    chance to witness Severin’s abilities, but a defeat seems to be the most likely oue now.”


    He had heard about the bet between Emery and Severin–if Severin lost the tournament, then the


    position of the core disciple would have to change hands. Should that happen, it would be pointless for


    Raymond


    As Raymond was contemting on leaving. Fend’s voice echoed across the field. “Now that both of


    you have fired up your cauldrons, the contest will officially begin!”


    Fend raised his hand and produced hundreds of sixth–grade materials from his spatial ring. He


    arranged them meticulously at the center of the open area. As the witness invited to preside over the


    contest, Fend was not only responsible for maintaining order but also for providing the necessary


    materials. At the sight of the herbs, Severin sprang into action and raised his hand to start the Crystal


    Spring Pill’s crafting process!
