Upon hearing the taunting words, Shen Haoran, Feng Li, and the others stopped in their tracks and looked back. Behind them, an elderly man in the silver robes of an Alchemist was slowly approaching with a young man in tow. An Alchemist Badge hung from the chest of the silver-robed elder, and upon it, six golden stars glittered. This signified that the man was a Sixth Grade Alchemist.
"Hmph. If your Silver Snow City dares to participate, why can't my Burning Flame City?" Feng Li stared coldly at the silver-robed elder, his tone devoid of any respect.
"That's Yin Chuan, the Hall Master of the Silver Snow City branch of the Medicine Hall. He's also a Sixth Grade Alchemist," the Second Elder explained to Shen Haoran. "The Silver Snow City Medicine Hall is among the twenty major branches, but their ranking is rather low. Still, that's better than our Burning Flame City, and they're the mortal enemies of our Medicine Hall!"
