Upon seeing Matilda's panicked appearance, Roland burst into laughter. "Don't tell me you believed that? With your intelligence, you should settle for a job at the pharmacy. Perhaps the Holy Doctor Competition should also include an IQ test in the future."
"You—" Enraged, Matilda suddenly had a dizzy spell and felt light-headed. Then, she blacked out and fainted on the spot.
"You brat, how dare you!" With a shout, the elder from the Sky Palace, Thea, rushed forward.
Seeing the young master fainting in front of Roland, she became anxious and acted rashly. With a single raised palm, she swiftly attacked Roland, but just as she approached, one of the guards disappeared from where he stood.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Roland, and his arm slowly rose, firmly catching Thea's wrist in his hand.
"No violence is allowed on competition grounds." As he spoke, the enforcer released his grip and returned to his position. Why should he bother with women over matters of national importance?
Of course, Roland also had some responsibility in this matter. When the guard's gaze fell upon Roland, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The grandson of the Phantom of Medicine had such a vile mouth.
Seeing that it was futile, Thea could only reluctantly carry her unconscious young master away.
"Tsk, young people these days lack mental capacity. They faint after hearing a few hurtful words. Ms. Bagshaw, remember to help this weak young girl improve her mental capacity."
Upon hearing Roland's words, Thea stumbled and gave Roland a murderous look before continuing her way.
With that, all the commotion ended, followed by the commencing of the second stage of the finals, the custom pill round.
Once the pill was certified by the judging panel and the authenticity of its properties had been confirmed, the audience erupted in excitement once again. This pill could be considered a blessing for the vast audience. Countless individuals who aspired to become martial artists were hindered by their aptitude and could not start practicing it. Hence, they could only accept mediocrity when there was no other way.
But now, Matthew's Divine Skill Pill was like a ray of light in their dark world.
In comparison to that, Zephyr's miracle elixir for curing poison, the Impermanence Pill, suddenly seemed ordinary.
When the competition results were submitted to CAUMP's board of seniors, they discovered Matthew had defeated everyone by refining nine extraordinary pills during the first half of the finals. In the second half, the Divine Skill Pill astonished the entire country.
Unsurprisingly, the winner was Matthew.
