The First Prince's face was gloomy, and his heart was filled with anger. Under his banner, there were many outstanding alchemists, but before they could do anything, the competition had already ended.
The First Prince was furious, and his eyes flashed fiercely. He cupped his hands towards the referee and said, "Ye Qing has violated the rules of the competition. Please punish him!"
In the arena, the referee was even more shocked. He was like a clay statue, and he was unable to react for a long time.
"Hey, referee, what are you doing?"
The First Prince was furious. As a prince, he had a noble status. How dare a mere referee ignore his words? This was simply preposterous.
A powerful spiritual force was released from the First Prince's sea of consciousness, and in an instant, it woke up the stunned referee.
"First Prince, what happened just now?
Are you talking to me? "
The referee's face was filled with confusion. Clearly, he was extremely shocked and had yet to recover.
"Nonsense, that kid violated the rules of the competition. Didn't you see?"
The First Prince couldn't help but curse. It wasn't that he didn't have self-restraint, but that he was too sullen. A good alchemy competition, and victory was in his grasp, but it was ruined by Ye Qing.
"Uh …"
The referee was stunned. He carefully recalled the scene just now, and after a moment of hesitation, he shook his head and helplessly said, "First Prince, we didn't set a limit on how many ingredients the contestants can take. Ye Qing took all the ingredients in one go, so in principle, he didn't break the rules."
When the First Prince heard the referee's reply, he became even angrier. His eyes seemed to spit out two streams of anger. He said in a deep voice, "Who set the rules?
Ye Qing was so unscrupulous and took all the ingredients. How can the other contestants refine pills?
He deliberately ruined the competition, so he should be given zero points! "
The First Prince roared angrily. Seeing that his great advantage had been destroyed, one could imagine how furious he was.
If it wasn't for his status, he would have personally taught Ye Qing a lesson.
"First Prince, this … this rule was set by His Majesty."
The referee shrunk his neck, not daring to challenge the First Prince. However, he still answered the First Prince's question honestly.
The rules of the Alchemy Competition were set by the Purple Sea Empire's Emperor himself. This was not a secret, but a public fact.
Of course, the First Prince knew. It was just that in a moment of anger, he had spoken without thinking and actually doubted the Emperor's authority.
"Of course I know that the rules were set by Imperial Father, but Ye Qing's actions have seriously affected the other Pill Masters' competitions, so shouldn't he be punished?"
The First Prince tried to put on a strong front and forcefully explained.
The referee smiled bitterly and could only ask the Violet Sea Emperor for instructions.
The Purple Sea Emperor was the chief judge of the Trial. In theory, he should be the one to make the decision.
A commotion broke out in the alchemy arena. Those outstanding alchemists, after recovering from their shock, pointed their spears at Ye Qing, believing that Ye Qing had deliberately broken the rules of the competition.
"What nonsense are you talking about?
The herbs are right there. If you don't want them, who can you blame? "
The Seventh Prince stepped out from the crowd, clearly standing on the same side as Ye Qing.
The more points Ye Qing obtained, the more advantages the Seventh Prince would have, and the more initiative he would have in the struggle for the throne.
On the other side, the First Prince insisted that the referee handle the matter impartially, and the matter had already reached the Violet Sea Emperor.
In the guest stands, the Violet Sea Emperor's face was gloomy, and he said nothing for the time being.
Two deep gazes looked in Ye Qing's direction. The Purple Sea Emperor frowned in deep thought.
In the Violet Sea Emperor's view, Ye Qing's talent was truly monstrous, and he could be called an alchemy prodigy.
Of course, Ye Qing's actions just now had, to a certain extent, gone against the original intent of the Alchemy Competition.
The Violet Sea Emperor had set a quota of herbs during the Alchemy Competition in order to promote competition between alchemists. He had not done what Ye Qing had done, recklessly using up all the herbs in one go.
"Imperial Father, please uphold justice for me!"
The First Prince flew over, landing beside the Violet Sea Emperor and kowtowing.
The referee of the Alchemy Competition also came to ask for the Emperor's opinion.
"Ye Qing's actions were indeed inappropriate. I'll let it go this time, but there won't be a next time!"
The Violet Sea Emperor's powerful voice rang out, and the First Prince was instantly dumbfounded.
From the Emperor's words, it seemed that he did not intend to pursue Ye Qing's mistakes at all!
Not a next time? It was as if he had not said anything, and Ye Qing could still get his points.
"Imperial Father, this …"
The First Prince still wanted to say something, but the Purple Sea Emperor waved his hand and interrupted him. "My son, you should be worried about the upcoming competition, not pestering me endlessly," the Purple Sea Emperor said slowly.
The Violet Sea Emperor's words were extremely majestic, and the First Prince's body trembled. He did not dare to delay, and his body moved, rushing to another area of the competition.
With Ye Qing's interference, the Alchemy Competition came to an end, and the next competition was the Beast Taming Competition!
A special Beast Taming Competition was set up in the Martial Arts Arena.
In the sky, one powerful Beast Tamer after another descended, all of them eager to give it a try.
In the Beast Taming Competition, there was a huge cage that imprisoned many demonic beasts. There were even powerful Sacred Dragons and some existences whose bloodline power was not weaker than Sacred Dragons.
After the Alchemy Competition ended, everyone came to the Beast Taming Competition, ready to watch the exciting Beast Taming Competition.
Many people were already clear about the rules of the Beast Taming Competition. The participating Beast Tamers had to rely on their own ability to tame a demonic beast on the spot.
After taming the demonic beast, they still had to fight. If they lost, they could only accept the fate of being eliminated.
The Beast Taming Competition also used a point system. For every match won, three points would be awarded. If one lost, no points would be deducted, but they would be eliminated.
In the Seventh Prince's camp, there was a joyous atmosphere. With the Seventh Prince as the leader, a group of geniuses surrounded Ye Qing, celebrating for Ye Qing. All kinds of flattering words were spoken.
Even those famous alchemists who didn't think highly of Ye Qing before were flattering him, wanting to hug Ye Qing's thigh.
During the Alchemy Competition, Ye Qing was definitely the brightest star. His shocking attainments in the Alchemy Dao were unmatched in the entire Purple Sea Empire.
Even if Ye Qing broke the rules of the competition, the Purple Sea Emperor still didn't pursue the matter. Presumably, it was because of Ye Qing's alchemy skills.
It had to be known that a peak Seven Star Alchemist had a great influence on the empire!
Ye Qing's alchemy skills were definitely worthy of being roped in by the Purple Sea Emperor.
"Young Master Ye, you've worked hard in the Alchemy Competition. In the Beast Taming Competition, you can rest well and leave it to the Beast Tamers."
The Seventh Prince flew through the air and led the way. When they arrived near the Beast Taming Competition Arena, he found a spacious area for Ye Qing to rest in.
"Rest?
Seventh Prince, can the Beast Tamers under your command do it? "
Ye Qing rolled his eyes and swept his gaze over the crowd. There were quite a few Beast Tamers present, and many of them had a powerful demonic beast by their side.
However, to be honest, Ye Qing really didn't care about the strength of these Beast Tamers. Just their Spiritual Energy was weak.
"Young Master Ye, don't worry. The Beast Tamers under my command are all peak experts!"
The Seventh Prince waved his hand, his face brimming with confidence as he spoke.
