The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

After storing the freshly made Reincarnation Elixir in the Star Ring, Hudson Harvey exhaled lightly, his sharp bright eyes curiously glancing at David Jones in the rest room.

With his boundlessly powerful Psychic Power, he naturally could sense David’s prying gaze, otherwise, there was no point in him being a Grandmaster alchemist.

“Innate Talent of the Spirit Eye? No wonder he only started refining after observing Helen Cloud’s refining process!” Hudson Harvey laughed thoughtfully.

Clearly, this arrogant young man was not only able to easily imitate and copy the refining techniques of his peers, but he also shifted his learning focus onto him.

“Interesting, if you can comprehend a part of the Reincarnation Elixir formula through this opportunity, there’s no harm in giving you this piece of information!”

Hudson Harvey looked deeply into David Jones’s eyes, and then his calm voice echoed throughout the venue.

“The second round of the Pharmacy Conference is about to begin. May the brilliant new talents representing the future of the pharmacy realm take the stage!” Having said that, Hudson Harvey’s figure instantly disappeared from the stage.

At these words, David Jones took a deep breath, calming his excitement from acquiring a high-level elixir formula, and stepped onto the Pharmacy Square together with the numerous contestants.

As soon as he stepped up, David Jones noticed the information displayed on the screen.

[Within one and a half hours of this round, refine a Class IV S-tier Star-Arcane Elixir. Participants who can produce an elixir of ordinary quality or above are eligible for advancement.]

“Star-Arcane Elixir? An old friend indeed! I can refine this elixir even with my eyes closed!”

Swatted all the mesona from the table into the elixir furnace, David Jones shook his head pensively. This was an absolute free score.

With Audrey’s repeated teachings, even if the Star-Arcane Elixir was a Class IV S-tier elixir, David Jones’s refining speed was surprisingly fast.

So, while many contestants were still being cautious in their refining, David Jones had already entered the elixir condensing stage.

“So fast!”

In the audience, Leighton Poolsky, a master alchemist, gaped a little, looking at David Jones with a slightly shocked expression.

What the heck is that?

A refinement capable of extracting all the Herb Essence of the Star-Arcane Elixir within less than seven minutes, was this terrifying speed of refining sure to be operated by a master alchemist?

Unbelievable, it was just too unbelievable!

“I knew that alchemy is no hurdle for David Jones.”

On the other hand, Margaret Yule gazed at David Jones, who appeared composed, her eyes seemed to be shining.

As for those who had been eliminated like Yann York, they narrowed their eyes, looking somewhat incredulously at the time displayed on the big screen.

“Almost there, the Herb Essence has successfully fused.”

Sensing that the Star-Arcane Elixir in the elixir furnace was already nurtured, David Jones made a mental note, the Calamity Flame ignited by the Afterglow Array surged in strength, a faint fragrance began to spread amidst the flames.

“How is it possible?”

Smelling this familiar fragrance, Helen Cloud’s spirit was greatly shaken, and her little hand trembled. The mesona in the elixir furnace, which was being extracted, was immediately devoured by the blazing Calamity Flame.

“Damn it, I can’t be distracted by David’s refining progress!”

Helen Cloud bit her lower lip lightly, forcefully suppressing the turmoil in her heart, putting all her focus into the refinement of the Star-Arcane Elixir.

“He really is a tough opponent!” Benjamin Brightbridge, on the other side, looked at David Jones apprehensively.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

Following that, a series of faint, muffled sounds rang out continuously.

As the aroma of the elixir filled the air, it seemed as if all the pharmacists near David Jones were shocked or momentarily distracted, resulting in failure in their alchemy.

The simultaneous failure of dozens of pharmacists created a spectacular scene that instantly caught the attention of many spectators.

“These youngsters are too immature! Just because of the speed of pill refining, they lose their composure, which is really inexcusable.” Hudson Harvey disdainfully remarked.

During the war era, pharmacists of their generation had to risk enemy assaults, refining pills on the go, and occasionally even faced death in order to condense elixirs.

“Times have changed, the bloody battlefields that were constantly faced during the Flowery Kingdom’s initial establishment are no longer necessary for the young people. Isn’t that the goal our generation strived for?” Lilith Hoyle said.

“Indeed, Grandmaster Hoyle is correct. Peace was hard-won. We hope that one of these young ones will emerge to shoulder great responsibilities in the future.”

“Naturally, my disciple will certainly make history!” Lilith Hoyle glanced at Hudson Harvey, not hiding her expectations.

“Making history? That requires being a legendary figure or at least a Great Grandmaster Pharmacist!” Hudson Harvey looked at David Jones in astonishment, thinking to himself.

He didn’t expect Lilith Hoyle’s expectations for this disciple to be so high!.

“David Jones? Maybe it’s time to get in touch!” Hudson Harvey quickly adjusted his thoughts.

“Success!”

Without the need to open the furnace to remove the heat, David Jones simply withdrew the flame, and three blue elixirs fell into his palm alongside the reddish-gold flame.

David Jones placed the Star-Arcane Elixirs into the white jade bottle on the table. The dazzling elixirs, resembling blue crystals, emitted an enticing aroma.

“Good, excellent quality.” David Jones bent his head to sniff lightly, satisfaction flickering in his eyes.

Even for him, high-quality Star-Arcane Elixirs weren’t something he could create just because he wanted to!

“Seven minutes and fifteen seconds, such a fast speed!”

Seeing David Jones setting a new record in public for refining Star-Arcane Elixirs and finishing the competition with unbeatable speed, many spectators gasped, holding their breath.

Even trainers who were born in Rosewood City had some understanding of pharmacy. They knew very well that even a master pharmacist would need at least twenty minutes to refine a Class IV elixir.

But David Jones only took seven minutes and fifteen seconds, creating a staggering threefold gap of time. Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it!

“Using psychic power to control the elixir and fire for fusion! Congratulations Grandmaster Hoyle, your disciple’s Soul Level is almost stepping into the Yellow Ranked Spiritual Realm!” Hudson Harvey praised from the audience seats.

“A difference of just one step changes everything. This barrier will at least stall him for a year and a half.” Lilith Hoyle shook her head.

Twenty minutes later, Helen Cloud became the second pharmacist to successfully refine her elixir during the Pharmacy Conference, followed by Benjamin Brightbridge, and finally, the Flare IV peak alchemist, the bespectacled young man was last.

As for the other pharmacists, most were stumped by the S-tier Class IV Star- Arcane Elixir, including Yolanda York, who had failed continually for three times.

“Yolanda York is still too young!”

For this standout pharmacy genius from Southriver Province, who was often discussed in comparison to her, Helen Cloud had heard a lot about her.

But after only a glance at Yolanda York her gaze shifted to the relaxed and casual David Jones to her side.

At the age of nineteen, compared to Yolanda York, a prodigious talent just beginning to make her mark, her current biggest competitor was Brother David Jones.
