Their Gaze at Jun Lionhead Changed

Azure Phoenix was directly recommended for advancement, so she didn't need to participate in this competition.

Not only did she skip the competition, but she was also one of the judges this time, just like her mentor.

Spiritual Alchemists selected for the headquarters must be at least Level Five.

After a whole day of judging, they finally picked two winners.

First was Joanna Zuo. Her Lotus Breeze Elixir was incredibly effective at clearing miasma.

The other was a young man from the Service Division, Lucas Lee, who invented the Paternity Stone.

His invention had already become widely known.

This year, he just became a Level Five Spiritual Alchemist, so the judges gave him second place.

They also picked out the third to tenth place winners.

And third place, surprisingly, went to Lily Xu.

Lily Xu may be shameless, but...

But her talent is actually pretty good.

Just like Azure Phoenix, she has the Celestial Five-Element Root!

So, a lot of times, the Alliance Leader and the others know what kind of person she is, but they just turn a blind eye.

The Celestial Five-Element Root is really rare!

As soon as the results were announced, Lily Xu shouted, "I object!"

The Alliance Leader frowned. "What are you objecting to?"

"The judges were unfair! I object!"

"Unfair how?"

"My elixir should've gotten second place!" Lily Xu said. "The Imperial Alchemist and Azure Phoenix were out to get me, so they gave all their votes to Lucas Lee!"

The President replied, "The judges have the right to vote for whoever they think deserves it. Objection overruled!"

Lily Xu gritted her teeth. "Just now, when I brought tea to Jun Lionhead, he tried to take advantage of me! I barely escaped, and now he's taking revenge! President, aren't you going to do anything?"

No one on Spirit Alliance Mountain believed her.

But today, most of the people here weren't from Spirit Alliance Mountain—they were just regular Spiritual Alchemists.

When they heard this, everyone started looking at Jun Lionhead differently!

Lily Xu really was a beauty.

A very sexy beauty.

Could the Imperial Alchemist really be such a scoundrel?

"Is she telling the truth?"

"No way! The Imperial Alchemist isn't that kind of guy!" The women refused to believe it.

"But you never know! The more righteous someone acts, the more likely they are to be secretly rotten!" The men were getting worked up.

......

Hearing all this, Azure Phoenix's eyes filled with murderous intent.

Why didn't she just cut out her tongue earlier?

Let's see how she keeps running her mouth!

She took a deep breath and defended her mentor: "Lily Xu, you're full of crap! You tried to seduce my mentor when you brought him tea, and he threw you out!"

"Azure Phoenix, I know you're just saying that to protect your mentor's reputation! But we're both women—doesn't saying that hurt your conscience?"

"Conscience... You dare talk about conscience!" Azure Phoenix felt like she was going to explode. "Everyone on Spirit Alliance Mountain knows exactly what kind of person you are!"

"Azure Phoenix." Jun Lionhead stopped her from saying more and turned to the crowd, declaring loudly, "I can prove she's lying."

Everyone stared at Jun Lionhead, wondering how he would prove it.

Jun Lionhead extended a finger from afar, and suddenly Lily Xu looked like someone had grabbed her by the throat—her whole body lifted off the ground and slowly floated in front of Jun Lionhead.

Then Jun Lionhead pressed down slightly, and Lily Xu was pinned like a fish on a chopping board.

No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free.
