Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

The white-browed old man sighed and said, "Ascension! Today I finally understand what 'ascension' means!"

"One thought makes my soul wander around the East and West Seas, another thought climbs Mount Taihang. I feel at ease and relaxed."

"After so many years of bottlenecks, one Ascension Pill is enough to pry open the stagnant water."

"Three flowers on the head, five energies in the chest... Baopuzi, you are not deceiving me!"

"We are foolish and cannot understand its true meaning!"

"However, today the Ascension Pill has reappeared in the world. After two hundred years, the lofty pearl has finally been unveiled and has fallen into the hands of mortal alchemists like us!"

The old man stood up excitedly, raised his hands and shouted, "My fellow Taoists, I have ascended!"

Already ascended——!

Ascension——!

It’s rising——!

The old man's excited shouts from the bottom of his heart and the ecstasy from the depths of his soul were echoing in the room like a vent, and the lingering sound was endless.

Three seconds later, the entire auditorium erupted in violent cheers like a tsunami. Some young people beat their chests excitedly, some clapped their hands with red eyes, and some were so excited that they were speechless. They all knew that this day was destined to go down in history and it was a carnival for the entire alchemy world.

The thunderous cheers resounded throughout the Alchemist Association, and the joyous revelry seemed to overwhelm the entire capital.

Among the alchemists in the auditorium, countless young women blushed and their hearts fluttered as they looked at the young man who remained calm under the concentrated lights... They thought it was his good looks that impressed them, but they didn't expect it was the duet of his strength and looks.

Many young alchemists also clenched their fists, with envy, jealousy, longing and admiration in their eyes. They wanted to replace him, but they knew they didn't have the ability. They were extremely conflicted in their hearts.

On the stage, Bai Yu's smile seemed a bit forced.

Looking at his empty pockets, he calculated the cost of materials.

Damn, I lost hundreds of credits...

If I had known earlier, I would have kept one Ascension Pill. Now it will be difficult to make a profit, right?

Can the material costs be reimbursed?

Could you guys please stop arguing and let me find a judge to ask first?

Chapter 463 I just want to say a few words

The enthusiastic cheers from the audience lasted for more than ten minutes.

Finally, order was restored under the leadership of the elders of the Danshi Association.

Both the judges and the alchemists who came to watch were extremely excited. Who could have imagined that such a great research result would come out on the spot during the selection of an annual award.

The elixir formula that had remained unsolved for more than two hundred years was actually cracked in the hands of such a young man.

This is an achievement worthy of being recorded in history.

The selection of annual awards is not a big deal at all.

Within the Dancing Association, there are at least three more important awards than this one.

Who knew that Bai Yu would just raise his hand and drop a trump card. Without any greeting, he started refining the elixir on the spot, giving everyone a big surprise.

Nangong Yan, as the person with the highest position present, shook hands with Bai Yu, with an expression that seemed to be filled with excitement, tears streaming down his face.

"Congratulations, young man! You have allowed all of us to witness the moment when humans pluck the pearl of the Ascension Pill!"

"Your achievements need no further elaboration. The enthusiastic applause in this auditorium is the best proof of this."

"You will become a role model of the new era and the backbone of the Alchemist Association. The emergence of the Ascension Pill is not only a major academic victory, but it can also greatly slow the aging of extraordinary people and enhance the overall strength of our Great Xia Nation."

Bai Yu: "..."

Ascension Pill, Pearl?

He hasn't figured it out yet.

Then I saw on the other side of the auditorium, a beautiful young lady in a red cheongsam, her eyes sparkling with admiration, holding a tray covered with a red cloth with a medal on it.

He suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Please wait a moment." Bai Yuxin wondered why they suddenly jumped straight to the award ceremony. He immediately said, "There's another Mr. Song whose results need to be presented later."

"Oh, Old Song's research has actually been reported." The white-browed elder said with a smile, "His research results only improved the formula of a third-grade elixir, increasing the yield rate by about 20%. Under normal circumstances, it is indeed a good achievement, but compared to your nuclear warhead, he has nothing to show for it. He has already quietly gone to the audience."

Bai Yu followed the old man's gaze and saw Song Keji in the front row, clapping with a big smile on his face. His face was flushed, and he didn't show any dissatisfaction at all. He seemed to be very proud of it.

Old Song was even feeling grateful and grateful for his good vision.

"Hurry up and accept the award. Who else deserves the annual award but you?" The old man on crutches straightened his back like a medical miracle.

Bai Yu: "..."

How come I, who came to the wrong place to take the exam, suddenly won the annual award?

The young lady holding the plate came closer and smiled sweetly at Bai Yu.

Nangong Yan picked up the gold medal for the annual award and sighed, "I've given out this annual award at least ten times. Why does this medal look so shabby this year?"

"It's really shabby." The other judges nodded.

An elder said to Bai Yu, "Young man, we know you're not happy with it. Don't worry, once the results of the Ascension Pill are released, you'll basically win all the major awards. Next time, I'll give you a bigger trophy!"

Bai Yu's smile became even more forced. Does that mean I have to make a few more trips to Beijing to receive the award?

"Everyone!"

Nangong Yan raised his voice. He didn't need a microphone; his powerful internal energy rivaled the highest-level loudspeaker. "Today, the Alchemist Association's annual award selection results are out. It can be said that it's a popular choice! The decision was made unanimously by the judging panel!"

"The winner of this year's award is——"

"yes----!"

Nangong Yan's passionate words suddenly paused here. He turned around and looked at Bai Yu, his serious expression revealing unnatural embarrassment.

The elder paused for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Young man, what's your name?"

The more than 3,000 Danshi at the scene were silent for a second, and then they all burst into laughter.

The elder is quite humorous.

The audience didn't think he was unaware of it, but rather that he was being humorous.

But in fact, Nangong Yan really didn't know. He relied on impromptu reaction to deliberately make some adjustments.

Just as the grand prize was about to be given out, I looked back and found that I didn't know this young man at all, he had no information, and he had not applied in advance.

Bai Yu calmly replied, "I'm from Penglai College."

"So he's from Danding College..."

"No, I'm from Chuanwu Academy."

"Ah?" The white-browed old man's fingers trembled.

"First year."

"Huh?" The sixth-rank female alchemist was even more puzzled. She swallowed, and the emotion in her eyes became more obvious: "How old are you this year?"

"My birthday is not far away. I'll be eighteen in a dozen days."

There was a series of gasps at the scene.

Eighteen years old, first year student at Chuanwu Academy?

Whose subordinates are these? They are so brave!

Nangong Yan suppressed his trembling heart and secretly cursed Penglai Academy for being unkind. What were they thinking by sending such a good seedling to teach martial arts?

He asked again, "Young man, what's your name?"

Bai Yu simply introduced herself in public: "Bai Yu, courtesy name Yujing!"

When he announced his name, almost everyone instantly remembered this boy who was not yet eighteen years old and would become famous in the world of alchemy, go down in history, and become a rising star.

The name of such a talented person must be remembered.

But the next moment, some people suddenly started reciting silently.

"This name sounds familiar."

"Huh? You think so too?"

"Yeah, I think I've heard of it somewhere, Penglai, Chuanwu... Wait, Penglai?"

A student from the Northern Watch Academy jumped up as if a needle had stuck his butt, and then the groundhog screamed as if it had seen a ghost: "Ah——!!!"

The people around were frightened: "What the hell are you yelling about?"

"I remember now! Bai Yu, that's the Bai Yu!" The young alchemist was a master at surfing the internet. "My sister is a student at Penglai Danding College. She's told me many times about Bai Yu! I even have the photos she sent me during our chats!"

He quickly flipped through the chat history and found the photo. He read out the photo with a beaming expression, "That's Bai Yu, the Bai Yu from Penglai Academy. He's known as the best freshman in a hundred years, a genius from the Chuanwu Academy who reached the third level of Transcendent before the age of eighteen. He's also been rumored to have an affair with Huang Qixia!"

"He's also a super werewolf with extremely high attainments in alchemy, having improved over a dozen techniques and published them all! My sister has told me about this many times, saying she admires him to death, but I didn't take it seriously... Damn, this isn't just her being crazy, it's all... real!"

Once one person discovers it, a second person will discover it.

"I remember!" Another Danshi suddenly remembered something and looked up the news. "From this morning's news, wasn't there a student from Penglai College named Bai Yu who managed to land the plane after the crash?"

If you search and look carefully, you can easily find a list of Bai Yu's past achievements, which are difficult to hide.

Even one of the judges looked surprised after listening to a nearby apprentice's detailed explanation.

Anyone who can refine the Ascension Pill is considered a rising star!

Who knows, even outside of alchemy, the other party is fully qualified to be called a genius of this era.

It is already enough to start challenging for the title of Haoyue. What's more, he is still so young. If he is given another three years, he may also become Jiaoyang.

This group of old men seldom sees geniuses who have truly transcended fields. Even Huang Qixia, Ren Nanbei, and Bei Mingque are only extremely talented in cultivation. Those who can contribute to the advancement of alchemy like Bai Yu are not only rare, but rarely seen in fifty years!

Nangong Yan suddenly remembered something and asked in a strange tone, "Are you the junior student that Ling'er mentioned?"

"Senior Nangong Ling? We did come here on the same plane." Bai Yu said politely.

Nangong Yan asked with an even stranger expression, "Are you here to take the exam for the Third-Rank Alchemist Certificate today?"

Bai Yu laughed dryly and said, "The place is too big, I took the wrong road."

Nangong Yan held his forehead with his hand, feeling both amused and helpless. He easily figured out why Bai Yu appeared here.

"Good thing you went the wrong way!"

If you don't take the wrong path, where would we get the ascension pill?

Nangong Yan patted Bai Yu's shoulder, hung the medal around his neck, and encouraged him, "Next time you come here, walk around more and you'll naturally become familiar with the road!"

Such a good seedling cannot be let go!

The award ceremony was over and there was thunderous applause again. Almost everyone stood up and applauded.

As they gradually got to know Bai Yu better, any jealousy and envy they might have felt in their hearts almost disappeared.

Jealousy? Not happening.

Without him, the gap is too big.

This guy is not a human being!

He can make pills, is handsome, and has good luck, that's all... But if you count other things, he is still a strong man who can directly carry an airplane to land (rumor), and he has an affair with the Chief of the Phoenix, which even the Chief himself has acquiesced to. He is still unharmed after fighting with Haoyue, and he has two top fighters with innate heroic blood who follow his command.

When you meet such a chosen one, you are afraid that he will destroy you if you don't even look at him for a second.

The elites of the thousand-year-old family can't even afford to eat lemons, and they feel that life is bleak.

There are already many talented people in this era, so why should an honest alchemist be suppressed by such a perverted crossover?

It’s not fair, God, you are so biased!

"Give us a speech to express your gratitude for the award." Nangong Yan said with a smile, "Perhaps you have some thoughts to share?"

How can young people not be passionate?

Who values fame when they are young? The stage is ready, so don’t you have to act tough?

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let me thank all the TVs first?"

The pretty female alchemist beside her doubled over with laughter. "Little brother, this isn't being broadcast nationwide. It's just an internal event of the Alchemist Association. We haven't invited any media to broadcast it, just a few reporters."

"Then I won't thank you for now." Bai Yu cleared his throat and skipped the preparatory process: "Dear senior alchemists, I entered the industry late, less than three months ago, so I will just say a few words."
