Chapter 107: Xiao Yan's Good Fortune
"The Alchemist Convention isn't being held at the Alchemist Guild, but at the Royal Square."
Xiao Jietian explained with a smile as they walked down the street.
"The Royal Square? Isn't that place only used by the royal family for major events? Why would they use it for the Alchemist Convention?"
A flicker of surprise passed through Xiao Yan's eyes upon hearing this.
"This is an unprecedented grand event, and the royal family stands to gain many benefits from it, so naturally they offer strong support. According to preliminary statistics, over two thousand people are participating in this convention. Only a place that large can accommodate so many."
"That's true."
"Over two thousand people? That's a huge number of participants. But just imagining two thousand people refining pills at the same time is exciting." Xiao Yan couldn't help clicking his tongue, a hint of excitement on his lips.
"What, feeling your blood boil?"
Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Xiao Jietian knew this kid was already looking forward to the competition. He himself was quite eager too, as this was a prime moment to shine in the early stages.
"You two have good attitudes. I'm really looking forward to your shining moments. If you win the championship, I can also save face in front of Elder Fa Ma, haha~"
The three chatted as they walked, getting closer and closer to the Royal Square.
The three women behind them followed, chatting amongst themselves.
At this time, the area outside the square was guarded by fully armed troops maintaining order.
From a distance, many people had already gathered in front of the square, and the clamor was incessant.
"Let's go, witness this grand event."
This was Xiao Jietian's first time participating in such an unprecedented grand event, and even his usually calm self couldn't help but feel a stir of excitement.
The group first found Master Otto and briefly introduced the others to him.
Led by Master Otto, they passed through the exclusive channel for contestants and guild personnel without any obstruction.
After walking up an entrance ramp, the colossal square, like a giant beast, appeared before their eyes. Over a thousand neatly arranged bluestone platforms were distributed across the center of the square.
Some of the stone platforms already had many contestants seated behind them.
"It's still a long time until the competition starts. I'll take you to the VIP section to meet some important figures; it might be useful for you."
Following Otto, they arrived at the VIP area. He pointed to an old man in a purple alchemist robe next to mittle.
Xiao Jietian looked in the direction he pointed: That purple-robed old man must be Fa Ma, president of the Alchemist Guild. He was once casually guided by Old Yao, who happened to pass by. I wonder if Old Yao still remembers him now.
"That is the emblem of our Alchemist Guild, Elder Fa Ma. It's said the president is about to step into the ranks of a sixth-tier alchemist."
Otto introduced him to everyone with a hint of reverence on his face.
Just as Otto was introducing him, the sleepy-eyed purple-robed old man seemed to sense something and turned his head to look in their direction.
Otto quickly bowed. After a brief exchange, the old man looked at Xiao Jietian and Xiao Yan.
"You two must be the ones with the best results in the internal test, correct?"
"Junior Xiao Jietian pays his respects to President Fa Ma."
"President Fa Ma, this junior is Yan Xiao."
Towards the elder, both bowed slightly and responded with a smile.
"Very spirited. I think highly of you two. To be able to refine Black Iron Spirit Leaf to that extent—even Gu He didn't have that capability back in his day."
"I hope you gain something from this convention."
Fa Ma spoke slowly and gently with an amiable smile.
This time, with Old Yao's cover, Fa Ma didn't notice anything about Xiao Yan.
Fa Ma simply swept his gaze over the people behind Xiao Jietian. When his eyes fell on Little Doctor Immortal, his sleepy eyes widened instantly.
"This, this… what level of strength does this young lady possess? I actually sense a fatal danger."
Little Doctor Immortal and the others naturally noticed Fa Ma's change, and Little Doctor Immortal merely smiled slightly.
"She's just accompanying me."
Seeing this situation, Xiao Jietian suddenly spoke. The people around didn't understand what he meant, but Fa Ma did.
"That's good. With your word, I can rest assured."
Fa Ma set aside his inner worries and returned to his original state.
"You old codger, you're getting more talkative the older you get."
"Who's…", sitting next to Fa Ma, had just stood up and was about to shout angrily when a figure appeared beside Fa Ma.
"Old Ice, you really aren't dead. I thought you'd been taken care of by Medusa long ago. Last night, I heard you even had a fight with Old Jia."
Fa Ma couldn't help but say, looking at Hai Bodong beside him in surprise.
"You two old geezers, it's not good to talk about people behind their backs."
A voice sounded from the entrance of the VIP section.
Everyone turned their heads to see three figures—one man and two women—walking in through the entrance.
The man was naturally the royal family's guardian, Jia Xingtian, and the women were Princess Yao Yue and the Little Princess.
The last woman was dressed in luxurious brocade robes. She was tall, and her face bore some resemblance to the Little Princess. However, she exuded a cold, mature charm, as well as the dignified aura cultivated by the royal family.
Seeing this woman, Xiao Jietian thought she must be Yao Ye, the future successor of the Jia Ma Empire.
Even Otto's face began to break out in a cold sweat. Why were all these old monsters showing up today?
He himself had seen Jia Xingtian once or twice before, but only from afar. This old man was the pillar of the Jia Ma Empire.
"Little friend Xiao Jietian, little friend Yan Xiao, you two arrived quite early."
Jia Xingtian chuckled as he sat down next to Hai Bodong and spoke to Xiao Jietian and Xiao Yan. When he saw Little Doctor Immortal behind Xiao Jietian, his expression also shifted slightly.
"Might I ask who this is?"
"Old Jia, you're not late either. This is my wife; she's just accompanying me."
Xiao Jietian responded with a slight smile.
At this moment, everyone looked at Little Doctor Immortal in confusion, not understanding why she would attract the attention of two such important figures.
Following Old Jia's introduction, the woman was indeed Yao Ye, the future successor of the imperial family.
Xiao Jietian still quite admired Yao Ye, but only her abilities. He wasn't very interested in her as a person. Those who grew up in the imperial family were usually quite shrewd, and many things prioritized benefits.
The three briefly introduced themselves. After Xiao Jietian greeted the three elders, he took the three women to a side seat and sat down, waiting for the convention to begin.
Xiao Yan also found a seat. After a moment of thought, Yao Ye sat in the seat next to Xiao Yan. Clearly, Xiao Jietian already had several women around him, and their relationships were very intimate.
As time passed, alchemists continuously entered the arena, creating a bustling atmosphere.
The three women were whispering, while Xiao Jietian listened to them talk and played with Little Doctor Immortal's jade-like hand.
"System, check in."

After get the rewards he keep them in his system place and suddenly, there was a commotion at the entrance of the VIP section. Those who walked in were the patriarchs of the three great families: Miteer Tengshan, Nalan Jie, and Mu Chen of the Mu family.
Nalan Yanran saw Yao Ye sitting next to Xiao Yan, and her expression changed slightly. At a signal from Nalan Jie, she also came and sat next to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan looked at the two women vying for attention beside him and couldn't help but smile wryly.
Meanwhile, Liu Ling in the row behind him glared at Xiao Yan with gritted teeth, a look of deep resentment on his face.
Xiao Yan also turned his head and had a silent struggle with Liu Ling.
Watching Xiao Yan constantly smiling wryly and responding to Nalan Yanran and Yao Ye's questions, Xiao Jietian could barely suppress the corners of his mouth.
Xiao Yan subtly looked over: "Brother Tian, help… help.
