"Alchemy competition: Participants can choose any first-grade pill. The winner receives fifty thousand Spirit Stones, while the loser must refine pills for the Dangui Pavilion, with Spirit Stones paid monthly."

"Is Ghost Guest really playing this big?"

"If someone wins, wouldn't he be at a huge loss?"

"Are you stupid? He once won the top prize in the Medicine Gate competition. Which peer pill refiner can beat him?"

"True, but surely no one would be foolish enough to challenge him in alchemy, right?"

"Who knows? Let's go check it out."

Outside the Dangui Pavilion, Amanda Han watched the bustling crowd around the notice, yet no one stepped forward to challenge. She turned to Ghost Guest with a teasing smile, "Looks like your trick isn't working."

Ghost Guest replied calmly, "No, they're just afraid to be the first to step up. Winning means taking fifty thousand Spirit Stones, and even if they lose, I'll still pay them monthly. Apart from having to join the Dangui Pavilion, there's almost no loss. Double the reward is tempting enough, let alone tenfold or a hundredfold."

"It seems like a gamble," Amanda continued to tease, "Betting the entire fortune of two buildings, if we lose, we won't have anything left, not even enough to keep things running."
