Chapter 280: Chapter 280

“I’ve really bet on Sima You Yue?” the shepherd boy looked glumly at Sima You Yang, “Can I change it back?”

Sima You Yang kept his fan, tapped the shepherd boy’s head and said, “Once bought, the deal is done, you can’t change it back! ”

“But, but I don’t want to bet on him.” said the shepherd boy.

“Too bad, these are the rules.” Sima You Yang said nonchalantly, “Believe me kid, you’ve placed your bet on the winning team.”

“Yeah, shepherd boy, once bought, the deal is done, you can’t change it back.” said an onlooker.

“Oh alright.” The shepherd boy left the table, disappointed.

“Is there anyone who wants to place their bets?” Sima You Yang called again.

Again, someone bet on Sima You Yue. At the very last moment still there were only two people who had placed their bets on Sima You Yue,

“Seriously, this is freely giving me money, how could I accept this!” Sima You Yang said rather bashfully.

He had other people from the Sima clan watch over the money as he sauntered over to the battleground. “You Yue, everyone says you won’t win, there are over two hundred people here and only two people bet on you. One of the two even bet unintentionally on you! You can’t let them down!” Sima You Yang shouted across to You Yue.

Everyone who was there was stunned. Look at the smile on his face, where was the worry of paying for his loss?

Sima You Yue and Li Mu had already noticed that he had been dealing for the bets, so both of them didn’t say anything about it, but waited for them to place their bets.

Upon hearing that only two people had placed their bets on Sima You Yue, Li Mu smiled smugly.

“This time, you not only want to lose, you also want to pay a big sum of money! Hahah——”

Sima You Yue dug her ears and said, “It’s not the end till it ends, you have no reason to be smug! I’m just waiting for you to call me big brother!”

“Hmph, big talk!” Li Mu said icily.

The host who was also invited at the last minute said “Today, Li Mu from the Alchemy Guild and Sima You Yue from the Sima clan are here to compete, and everyone here is invited to witness this event. If Li Mu loses, Sima You Yue loses, he will be at Li Mu’s disposal, and the Sima clan is not to intervene. If Sima You Yue wins, Li Mu must call Sima You Yue big brother in the future.”

“Woah——”

The audience gasped, he actually dared to get someone from the Alchemy Guild to call him big brother, he must be really gutsy!”

“How do they plan to compete?” the audience asked.

“By making the same grade four pill, whose level is higher, and does it faster, will win.” said the host,” Because its starting to get late, everyone only gets one chance!”

“Start. ” As soon as the host said start, Li Mu pulled out his immortality pill oven, and a tableful of herbs. Upon seeing Sima You Yue still motionless, he said mockingly ” Surely you have your own herbs? If you don’t even have your own herbs, we won’t even need to compete.”

Sima You Yue rolled her eyes, took out her pill oven and herbs and quickly set everything up.

All the alchemists who were watching the competition, saw how fluid her movements were and were stunned. They never thought that she’d be this familiar this the procedures, she might even be a rank four alchemist.

The little old man happened to be flying across dragon picture island, and just flew down to watch. He was drawn to Sima You Yue’s technique in an instance, secretly descended at the top of the mountain, and quietly watched her compete.

Making the pills were pretty simple for her, all the steps were as easy as pie for her, even when she was done, Li Mu wasn’t finished.

“cough——” she coughed,tapped the oven and a grade four pill came flying out. She caught it and the strong aroma of herbs wafted around the entire field.

“What a rich smell of herbs!” Everyone at the field closed their eyes to fully take in the wonderful scent. The people who knew their herbs there said ” This rich smell, these herbs are of good quality. These should be rank four quality herbs.”

“I never thought he’d have completed it so quickly, and produced good quality herbs as well, it definitely isn’t easy!” Someone exclaimed.

“So, Li Mu lost?” The audience thought that Li Mu would win because he started alchemy earlier than Sima You Yue, but she had finished making the pill earlier than he had and making him the victor!

“Pfttttt——”

When Li Mu saw that Sima You Yue was done with concocting the pill, he panicked, and he was distracted from the fire and wasted a perfectly good pill in the making.

“He lost, what a waste of perfectly good herbs.” Sima You Yue shook his head and sighed, since you weren’t able to produce the pills, this time, you lose.”

The expression on Li Mu’s face was hard to read, he never thought he’d lose!

“You were never a ranked four alchemist to begin with!”” Li Mu glared at the pill in Sima You Yue’s hands.

If he was a ranked four alchemist, no matter how good his skills were, he’d never be able to produce the grade four pills in such a short amount of time!

Sima You Yue smiled and said “I never said I was a ranked four alchemist, I only said to compete making the grade four pill only because you knew how to make it. So when you see me in the future, call me big brother, got it? Little brother?”

“You…”

“Don’t you go back on your word!” Sima You Yue cut in, “There are so many witnesses here today, you can’t be a sore loser! You’d better accept your loss!”

With that, she turned and left the battlegrounds. She left the island along with the Bei Gong Tang, and went back to the camp side near the little lake.

Only after awhile, did the crowd start to react, he really beat Li Mu. Also, from his words, he wasn’t just some level four alchemist, she was an alchemist with a rather high rank!

“A twenty two year old alchemist, with a rank higher than Li Mu’s! How fascinating!” someone shouted in surprise.

“Exactly, this talent, even if it was the younger generation of the Alchemist Guild, they

couldn’t necessarily beat him!”

“Aiya, my goodness!”

“You punk, keep quiet!”

“We’ve lost all our money!”

“Seriously, I bet on Li Mu winning!”

“Me too, this is a huge loss!”

“We’ve all bet on Li Mu’s victory, only the two that bet on that rascal Sima You Yue won.

Look, they’re over there collecting money!”

Everyone looked at the table, surely, the shepherd boy and the middle aged man were standing at the table, collecting their payments

“Haha, I never thought I’d win so many gold coins back!” the shepherd boy happily said as he held the coins up against the setting sun, “Thankfully I bet wrongly just now. If not, I wouldn’t get so many coins back!”

The other man weighed a coin in his hand and said, delighted “I have rent to pay for the next two days!”

“I already said our You Yue would win, see? You didn’t suffer any loss, did you?” Sima You Yang said smugly.

“Yep, I didn’t think he was so skilled!” the shepherd boy said happily as he counted the coins in his hands.

The audience roared with laughter, they had never expected this outcome, that they money that they bet would be lost, never to come back ever again.

The little old man stood on the hill, still reeling from Sima You Yue’s performance. His eyes were shining and an idea was forming in his mind.
