Upon hearing Kang He's words, not only did the five grandmaster level alchemists on the judging panel visibly frown and exchange glances, but all the Thirty-two Skillful Hands' alchemists present also immediately lamented.
"Kang He is right; this is the truth. Shen Qiang's elixir pills are of divine grade, their effects defy nature and can bring back the dead and heal the incurable. With so many cancer patients, his pills have a vast range of applicability. No matter how good our pills are, we simply can't compare to his."
"Yes, the situation is now very clear: whoever competes with Shen Qiang in pill-making faces certain defeat. It's no longer about skill or the pill itself; it's purely about luck. As long as we avoid Shen Qiang, advancing has half the certainty."
