About two hours later, the three of them walked out of the alchemy laboratory together, but neither mentioned the result of the exchange between the two sides, but it was worth noting that the two people in the North Courtyard seemed to have become more respectful unconsciously.

And the day before the alchemists' gathering began, two uninvited guests found Dongfang Xiao again.

"How are you? The exchange meeting is about to officially begin, why don't you hurry up and practice your alchemy? ”

These two people are none other than the two teenagers who participated in the assessment of advanced third-order alchemists not long ago, and their strength at that time was only comparable to that of third-order alchemists, but after these two months of training, the strength of the two can be said to have truly reached the level of third-order alchemists.

The two looked at each other and said with a smile: "Hehe, anyway, with our alchemy, the protagonist of this game is definitely not us, and most of it depends on you, the boss, to get from this scene, after all, you also know that the alchemy of our North Courtyard has always been in a weak position." ”

What these two people said is indeed right, in every exchange meeting, the four major branches are always at the bottom of their North Courtyard, and even some slightly smaller branches can crush them. However, this can't be blamed on them, after all, in the entire continent, the alchemy of the western continent is much stronger than that of the eastern continent, which also causes some differences between the two alchemists.

Dongfang Xiao nodded lightly: "Even so, don't slack off, after all, I may not participate in the initial exchange conference, and at that time, it will still depend on your strength to win glory for our North Courtyard." ”

"Don't worry, boss, the two of us are definitely not lazy, everyone is holding a breath in their hearts, and they have been practicing alchemy hard for a while."

Dongfang Xiao frowned slightly: "Why do you two call me boss, they are all companions in the academy, so it's good to be commensurate with classmates." I've never called you two my boss, and I don't remember any younger brothers. ”

"It was the two of us who volunteered." The two of them smiled, "No, this can be regarded as the opinion of all of us, although everyone has worked very hard, but we are still very clear about how many catties and taels we have." Most of the responsibility of this exchange conference still falls on the boss, and after determining the candidates to participate in this exchange conference, you have been collectively considered the boss by us. ”

Dongfang Xiao felt a little crying and laughing, he didn't expect such a play.

"Boss, in fact, the two of us do have some things to talk to the boss about this time, tomorrow is the gathering of alchemists, with the practice of those people in the West Academy, maybe tomorrow will definitely come to us at the exchange conference to find trouble, we have always swallowed our anger, but this time with the existence of the eldest brother, the brothers have a lot of confidence, but I have told them to try to be as low-key as possible, and now the two of us come to ask the boss's opinion to have a psychological preparation."

Dongfang Xiao was a little surprised, he didn't expect these two people to know about this matter, but thinking that both of them were children of the guild leader's hometown, they must naturally have some channels of their own.

"It seems that I don't just mean the two of you, but everyone else, right? The reason why you want to recognize me as a big brother is probably to let me stand out for you, right? ”

The two smiled a little embarrassedly: "Boss, this is indeed what everyone meant, in the group training in the previous paragraph, you have not shown up, but everyone has no opinion on this, after all, the boss's strength has far surpassed us, so it is naturally impossible to train with us." It is precisely because of this that many brothers have a sense of awe for the boss, so they entrust the two of us to meet you, after all, compared to them, the two of us are still acquaintances. However, everyone wants to recognize you as the boss, but they really mean it. ”

After finishing speaking, the two looked at Dongfang Xiao expectantly, and really wanted Dongfang Xiao to stand out for the two, they didn't have much confidence, after all, Dongfang Xiao was not only an alchemist, but also a high-level puppeteer, and the vice president of the puppet master guild, even if he didn't show up at tomorrow's party, no one would say anything.

Dongfang Xiao fell into deep thought. He also knew about the alchemists of the Eastern Courtyard who were training together some time ago, and he thought that this matter was likely to cause estrangement between other alchemists and him, but he didn't expect that it would cause such a result, if he was willing to take on this responsibility, then the result would be very obvious, his prestige among the young generation of alchemists would rise further, and the risk he needed to take was that he was likely to have a head-on conflict with the people of the Western Academy.

Dongfang Xiao is not a person who likes trouble, but this does not mean that he is afraid of trouble, but sometimes he is unwilling to participate in some senseless battles and trap himself in. However, if there is really trouble to come to the door, he will not have the slightest timidity, and he is also very confident in his own strength, even if those alchemists in the Western Courtyard really invite any foreign aid, he will not be afraid of anything, if he really gives his best, even if the opponent of the middle level of the Spirit War King may not be able to take advantage of it in his hands.

In the expectant gaze of the two, Dongfang Xiao nodded heavily: "Okay, go back and tell them that if those people in the West Courtyard really don't know what to do, you don't need to give them any face, I will let them know that our East Courtyard is not easy to mess with!" ”

The anticipation in the eyes of the two of them immediately turned into surprise, and after saying goodbye, they left the place in high spirits, apparently going back to report the good news to the other alchemists.

"I said Belus, you've been hiding and eavesdropping enough, isn't it time to come out?"

After a few moments, Belus's voice slowly walked up a nearby staircase, but his face looked a little embarrassed.

After Dongfang Xiao's strength broke through to the level of the Spirit Battle King, he had become a cultivator at the same level as him, for a cultivator like him who was not good at concealing his body, it was simply impossible to hide himself in front of Dongfang Xiao, who had the power of fluctuations.

"Let's go, since Master Beruus is here, let's go in and talk together, it just so happens that I still have a lot of things to ask the master......"
