The competition lasts one hour per person. The contestant will refine a Spirit Gathering Pill; the one with the highest quality pill will win. Please proceed to the pharmacy.

Liu Ruxuan looked at everyone, wondering who would ultimately win her heart.

While everyone was watching the battle, someone secretly came to the outside of a tower on the back mountain of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, intending to enter the tower.

The moment he approached the tower, Dugu Juechen sensed it.

Dugu Juechen frowned slightly, gracefully rose, calmly walked down from the platform, and headed outside. Although the crowd was puzzled, no one dared to ask any further questions.

As soon as Dugu Juechen moved, Liu Ruxuan noticed, so she took small steps back. Yi Yan watched as Liu Ruxuan disappeared from her sight, but Liu Ruxuan was completely unaware that Yi Yan was watching her.

After disappearing from everyone's sight, Liu Ruxuan ran as fast as she could, searching for Dugu Juechen's figure. She saw a white figure flash by ahead and quickly gave chase.

Seeing that Liu Ruxuan had slipped away, Yi Yan couldn't sit still any longer and got up to leave under everyone's gaze.

Seeing that the two sect leaders had left, Zhiyuan coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, focus on the competition and watch the match in peace."

Liu Ruxuan chased him all the way to the back mountain, where Dugu Juechen was standing in front of a tower.

Just as Liu Ruxuan was about to go over, she saw Dugu Juechen casually wave his hand, adding another layer of barrier outside the tower.

Dugu Juechen turned around and looked in Liu Ruxuan's direction. Liu Ruxuan was startled and quickly avoided Dugu Juechen's gaze. As soon as she turned around, Dugu Juechen was already in front of Liu Ruxuan.

“Du, Dugu Juechen, you…” Weren’t you just over there a moment ago?

"Someone entered the tower, but fortunately we arrived in time," Dugu Juechen explained, satisfying Liu Ruxuan's curiosity.

Liu Ruxuan nodded: "Someone actually tried to steal from the Heavenly Spirit Sect? They must be tired of living!"

Liu Ruxuan didn't ask what was inside the tower, nor could she, for there might be eavesdroppers somewhere.

"Xuan girl, I didn't expect you to be in the competition. I'm glad you're alright." Dugu Juechen tucked the stray hairs from Liu Ruxuan's ear behind her ear.

Liu Ruxuan's previous disappointment vanished instantly: "You still dare to talk? You don't even look at me."

“Who said I wasn’t looking at you? I’ve been looking at you the whole time,” Dugu Juechen said with a smile.

Liu Ruxuan pretended to be angry and ignored Dugu Juechen.

Yi Yan, who was not far away, was really angry when he saw this scene, but what could he do?!

Yi Yan slammed his fist on a tree next to him, then turned and left.

"I, Yi Yan, am determined to win Liu Ruxuan over!" Yi Yan muttered to himself as he walked.

Dugu Juechen and Liu Ruxuan returned to the competition venue one after the other, and an hour passed quickly.

The alchemist came out carrying the Spirit Gathering Pill he had refined.

Song Fan took a cutting board and walked to each person, and they all consciously placed the pills neatly on it.

Song Fan finally handed the six pills to Dugu Juechen.

Dugu Juechen glanced at it and already knew the result in his mind: "The winner is..."

Dugu Juechen deliberately dragged out his words, and the people below began to speculate about who the winner would be.

Bu Yuzhen looked at Yin Hongxue with confidence, and Yin Hongxue was secretly delighted to see Bu Yuzhen like this.

"...Peng Xiujie of the Fengyue Sect." After Dugu Juechen finished announcing this, he glanced at Yin Hongxue with disappointment.

Yin Hongxue and Bu Yuzhen were stunned, as if struck by lightning.
