The group from Mingshan Sect was still intently watching Tong Mingshan. Naturally, they understood what the remaining two black and white flames were and noticed Tong Mingshan refocusing on the competition again.
Zuo Zisheng, the disciple of Refining Heaven Sect, had completely given up hope. Earlier, he had still harbored a thread of "maybe" and "perhaps." He had calculated the possibility of Luo Shengsheng making a mistake, considered that Gu Lianni, being a woman, might lack the skill, and believed Mi Liangmeng from Golden Appearance Hall was overestimating himself by refining the Nine Orifices Exquisite Heart.
As for Tong Mingshan, who hailed from a minor sect, he had never taken him seriously, even though Tong had managed to absorb one more Divine Fire than him.
After calculating so many possibilities, he thought he had a sliver of hope, believing that refining the Eight Orifices Exquisite Heart might actually be the optimal choice for him.
