Listen, everyone nodded in agreement. This assessment is quite fair.
Following that, Liu Qin Yue and the others stepped onto the alchemy platform that had already been prepared. However, their expressions couldn't help but change when they took a closer look.
"Ling Yin Academy and Bei Hai Academy both have two alchemists participating in the competition?"
Cui Hao Yan's face was filled with surprise. They had always thought that each academy would only have one alchemist participating in the competition.
In fact, in the inter-academy exchange competition, the focus was on overall strength, and the alchemist competition was not particularly emphasized. It was just an annual event that everyone had formed a habit of.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang furrowed her eyebrows slightly. Based on the information she had learned earlier, Bei Hai Academy should only have one alchemist participating. Why did they suddenly have an additional person now?
Moreover, this person had a highly recognizable face. They had clashed with the team from Bei Hai Academy more than once before, but this alchemist was nowhere to be found in their team.
"Could it be... that they're up to something fishy again?"
Xia Zhi Qing's face turned ugly. Yesterday, Cang Lan Academy had stolen the limelight, and both Bei Hai Academy and Cang Lan Academy had lost face. Could it be that they wanted to turn the tables in this alchemy competition?
Liu Qin Yue also didn't expect the situation to be like this. Her expression turned slightly grim. Even though she had great confidence in her alchemy skills, it was still a cause for concern to face two opponents alone.
After all, her alchemy skills were no secret, and many people already knew about them. She couldn't gain a significant advantage in terms of numbers.
However, she couldn't rule out the possibility that the other side might have an alchemist with even stronger skills than her.
Huan Chu You's eyebrows also furrowed. Based on his judgment, Cang Lan Academy and Bei Hai Academy wouldn't have done this without a certain reason. There must be some clues in it.
Unfortunately, he hadn't discovered anything so far, so he couldn't take preventive measures.
"Ling Yin Academy and Bei Hai Academy both have two people, and we only have Liu Qin Yue. Are we at a disadvantage?" Zhan Yun Feng couldn't help but look at Lu Huai Yan. It was their first time participating in the inter-academy exchange competition, and they didn't have a clear understanding of the specific situation.
Lu Huai Yan's eyes were deep, and there was a hint of hesitation in his expression. In fact, even he couldn't determine what the problem was, but he was certain that there must be a problem!
"I can't be sure. It seems like they suddenly added another person, and there was no news about it before."
As everyone contemplated what could be behind this, Bai Li Hong Zhuang suddenly spoke up, "It's alright, I'll go up too."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze fell on Bai Li Hong Zhuang, showing a mix of surprise and delight.
In fact, Bai Li Hong Zhuang was indeed an alchemist, and her alchemy level was quite impressive.
"Bai Li Hong Zhuang, you were injured just yesterday. Alchemy is a mentally exhausting task. Are you sure it's fine?" Lu Huai Yan expressed his concern.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang smiled faintly and waved her hand dismissively, "It's alright. I only suffered some external injuries. It has no impact on my mental strength."
Lu Huai Yan looked at Bai Li Hong Zhuang's calm and tranquil appearance, and a pensive light flashed in his eyes.
