C768 The Second Round
C768 The Second Round
Just like yesterday, they were also at the 12th site today. When they arrived at the venue, it also caused a commotion.
"Look, that's the people from the Beichen House."
"The people from the Beichen House. I heard that they all advanced in the first round yesterday, and none of them were eliminated."
"It's true. They really advanced yesterday."
"Hiss! This is too scary. No wonder they are one of the ten holy lands of the immortal sects. No matter if it's their strength or their soft strength, they are so powerful that no words can describe it."
Everyone's eyes fell upon Wu Chen and the others. They were filled with incomparable admiration. All of them had advanced, and none of them had been eliminated. This result was very proud of them.
Even Wu Chen, who was once regarded as the trash of the Beichen House and the one who was most likely to be eliminated, had passed the test. Moreover, he had even refined numerous high grade Jade Mo Dan, which made everyone look at him in a new light.
However, Wu Chen, Kang Yang, and the others didn't pay any attention to him. They just walked towards the reserved spot.
Today, the 12th venue was as lively as yesterday. It was because the famous Immortal Tao Holy Land, the Beichen House, was present. This could guarantee that the second round of the Alchemist Grand Meeting would be pure enough.
The questions yesterday could only be said to be standard, medium difficulty, and average elimination rate. Therefore, the number of people who advanced to the second round was relatively high.
Very quickly, the judge walked onto the stage and said, "Invite the alchemist who advanced yesterday to the stage. Our competition is about to begin."
"Let's go."
Everyone hurriedly walked onto the stage. Today, Wu Chen was still standing on the same spot as yesterday. However, there was no longer no one around him like yesterday. Instead, a few Tier 4 alchemists appeared.
Noticing the alchemists around him, Wu Chen was extremely intelligent. He naturally understood that the reason why these people had isolated him yesterday was because of his low level and weak strength. He was not qualified to be with them.
However, during yesterday's Alchemist Competition, he had refined a high grade Jade Mo Dan in one go, proving his strength. He was not weaker than them, so these people did not reject him anymore.
He shrugged his shoulders and did not say anything. This was the reality of this world.
"The people of Beichen House are really strange. Yesterday, they isolated Wu Chen, but today, they didn't isolate him anymore."
"I don't know. Who cares? Anyway, it has nothing to do with us."
"I don't know how the test today is. Yesterday's test seemed to be as difficult as yesterday's."
"We'll know soon. There's no need to rush."
Everyone was filled with enthusiasm as they looked at the high platform, their eyes filled with anticipation.
"Get the medicinal ingredients."
Dozens of staff members walked onto the platform and distributed the medicinal ingredients. Very quickly, everyone received their respective medicinal ingredients. When they saw the medicinal ingredients in front of them, everyone frowned.
"These medicinal herbs seem to be the medicinal herbs used to refine the Ternary Pill."
"That might not be the case. Don't forget the trap set up yesterday. On the surface, it was to refine the Spirit Wind Pill, but in reality, it was to refine the Jade Mo Dan. Perhaps, the test question this time is the same as yesterday, setting up a maze."
"That's possible. It's better to be a little more careful. Don't fail miserably in an easy task."
With yesterday's lesson, each and every one of these alchemists became cautious. Yesterday's exam questions were still fresh in their minds, indicating that it seemed to be a simple question. But in reality, there was another mystery. If they were not careful... You would understand.
Wu Chen looked at the medicinal herbs. There seemed to be no problem with these medicinal herbs. It was just that the medicinal herbs required to refine the Ternary Pill were as few as there were many of them. The lesser, the greater. As for the other pills, based on Pill God's experience... It was as if the ratio of these medicinal ingredients was not met.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this time, we are testing your alchemy skills. We are going to refine the herbs in your hands into Ternary Pill."
As soon as the judge finished speaking, a warm voice erupted in the square.
"Refining Ternary Pill, is it true?"
"This Ternary Pill is merely a third-rank medicinal pill. Although the difficulty of refining it is very high, it shouldn't be a problem for the people here."
"Although there are a few things that are difficult to process in the medicinal ingredients of this Ternary Pill, as long as one is careful, it shouldn't be a problem for an outstanding alchemist like us."
"That's right. Does this mean that everyone will be able to advance?"
"I really don't understand what this examination means. It's already the second round, and there's still such a simple question. Is this interesting? Such a question simply can't show our standards."
Tang Ji, Yun Shishi, and the others did not think so. They were naturally cautious. The simpler the question, the more likely it was to hide some unknown secret. Since it was an examination, they would definitely not let everyone pass.
However, they repeatedly checked the medicinal herbs in their hands and checked many times. However, they did not find any problem at all, whether it was the age of the herbs or their age. There's no problem with the completeness of the herbs. It made them even more confused. Could it be that the question this time... Was it really that simple?
The leaders of the various major powers also frowned. Didn't they say that the difficulty of this test would be very high? Why did it become so much simpler now? One must know... After the first round of examination yesterday, those weaker third-rank alchemists and some Tier 4 alchemists... Basically, they were all eliminated. For these alchemists now... There were no problems at all in this examination.
On the stage, Wu Chen also frowned. These herbs... He scanned the herbs with his eye and found nothing wrong with them. These medicinal ingredients were the medicinal ingredients needed to refine the Ternary Pill, and this Ternary Pill... Although it was difficult to refine, the difficulty of extracting a few herbs was also higher. However, just like the others, as long as they were a little more serious... There was no problem at all.
At this time, the referee looked at everyone and said, "I believe that everyone has already checked the medicinal herbs. Next, let me explain the standards of this examination. The highest grade Ternary Pill qualifies, and the non-supreme grade eliminates."
"What? Only the highest grade qualifies?"
Everyone's eyes widened, and their faces were filled with shock. The pleasant surprise from before immediately disappeared without a trace, and each and every one of them had a sullen expression on their faces.
To them, the Ternary Pill was not a particularly big problem. They could all refine it. However, a supreme-grade Ternary Pill... That kind of concept was completely different. A Supreme Grade Ternary Pill... The difficulty of refining a Ternary Pill was at least a hundred times greater than a High-Grade Ternary Pill. It was completely not the same. A large portion of them had never successfully refined a ___ before.
