Chapter 1087: The Ranking Competition Begins (1)
After being rejected by Yun Feng, the second master of the Gong family was extremely upset. He was from one of the four largest families and was a powerful person in the Gong family. But he was treated so coldly by a little girl. Wouldn’t he lose face if word got out? The more the second master of the Gong family thought about it, the angrier he became, but he was also curious. What deal did his brother make with her? What exactly did she use to exchange for the spot of the Gong family? Was it a weapon? A treasure? Or a potion? Why didn’t his brother mention anything about this to him?
Although the Master of the Gong family thought about it, the most important thing for him to come to the Juxing School this time was the ranking contest. According to reliable sources, the ranking contest this time involved a huge matter. The top five students could represent the Juxing School to participate in the so-called friendly contest. If the members of the Gong family could get a spot in it, it would be the best for the Gong family!
The four families weren’t the only ones who thought so. All the families below the four families thought so too. As the disciples of the five elders, especially those who were most valued by the elders, they would more or less know about the friendly contest between the three academies. This time, they were even more determined to get into the top five. This time, they weren’t just fighting for their names, but also for the right to participate in the friendly contest.

The four families wanted to add fuel to the fire in this championship. If they became famous, they would be able to gain countless honors from the three islands. Those families with a lower level had the same thought and were even more anxious. If they stood out in this championship, they might be able to jump up!
The You family even had such a thought. It wasn’t easy for the You family to climb up in the Thousand Peak City. Their status wasn’t stable to begin with. After the accident between Yun Feng and the Zhao family, the You family offended the Zhao family in the Thousand Peak City and even had a conflict with the Gong family, which made the You family’s master even more terrified in his mind. And now, the pillar of the You family, You Bai, was neglected by the potion elder. The You family’s master truly felt that the You family’s troubles came one after another.
Fortunately, You Bai was the disciple that the Fourth Elder was proud of. If You Bai even lost this, the You family would have nothing. This time, the You family was determined to let You Bai get this spot. They had to get this spot no matter what! You Bai himself thought so too. Nobody would let go of such a good opportunity, especially disciples like them, who were valued by the elders. Even though the Fourth Elder didn’t say anything, he still had a lot of hope for You Bai.
“You Bai, how confident are you this time?” The You family’s master looked at You Bai with anticipation on his face. You Bai sat on the side with a slightly serious expression. “Master, things aren’t as simple as you think right now. If it was the last ranking contest, I would be 70% confident! However, it’s different this time.”
You Bai frowned. Master You’s heart couldn’t help but tremble when he saw this. Could there be any accident? If You Bai couldn’t get the spot this time, the Fourth Elder would definitely be quite disappointed!

“Although I’m one of the top ten students in the inner campus with my strength, I’m competing for the top five this time. Let alone the disciples of the First Elder and the Third Elder, there are already two disciples of the Second Elder who are at Grade 6 of the King Level like me. Coupled with Feng Yun, whom the Fifth Elder recently accepted, I don’t even have a 50% chance of getting into the top five.”
“You’re not even 50% confident?!” Master You widened his eyes. That wouldn’t do! How could he not be 50% confident? “What about borrowing external help? Can you improve it?”
A glint of light suddenly flashed through his pale eyes. “If I can get a master-level elemental potion, I might be able to try my luck…”
“A master-level elemental potion?!” Master You’s heart immediately turned cold. There was less than a week until the ranking contest. Where could he find a master-level elemental potion? “Is there no other way?”
You Bai shook his head. “Elemental potions can greatly increase my elemental strength in a short period of time. I can make a breakthrough in the ranking contest this time, even though there are certain side effects. Afterward, I’ll take time to recuperate. If we want to fight for the spot this time, this is the only way.”

“Master-level potions… Where can I find them…” The You family’s master suddenly thought of something and his eyes glittered. “Right! The potion elder! He must have elemental potions there! You can go there and find them!”
“That’s impossible! The potions made by the potion elder are all in his warehouse. I can’t go in!”
“Can’t you sneak in and search?”
“Master, this… If we’re discovered…”
“Do you want the spot this time or not? If you do, be bolder! No matter what you do, you must enter the top five! Do you understand?” The You family’s master shouted at You Bai, whose restless heart was intrigued. Right, he must enter the top five. He must prove himself. He must show everyone that he, You Bai, was also a capable person. It would be even better if he could defeat Feng Yun in the ranking contest! Thinking of this, You Bai’s heart couldn’t help but move and this thought germinated quietly in his mind.
There were no disciples in the pharmaceutical branch at all right now. Nobody would come and learn how to make medicine. The potion elder was also very busy because of the recent ranking contest. He often came back late at night to rest. During the day, the pharmaceutical branch was indescribably quiet, looking especially cold compared to the past.
You Bai stepped into the pharmaceutical branch uneasily and looked around like a thief, fearing that he would see someone. After walking for a long time, he didn’t find anyone. You Bai couldn’t help but heave a long sigh of relief. His body didn’t dodge anymore and his steps became much stabler. His destination was also very obvious, the yard where the potion elder was.
You Bai walked to the door of the yard and looked around carefully. After confirming that there was no one, he quickly stepped forward and rushed in. When he disappeared, two figures walked out of the yard. Gong Tianqing looked inside with disdain. “It’s really as you said. He’s here.”
Yun Feng chuckled on the side. It wasn’t difficult to guess You Bai’s mind. The You family’s master must’ve encouraged him to do this, or he wouldn’t have such boldness. If the potion elder found out, You Bai would be in big trouble.
