C773 The Third Round
C773 The Third Round
The judge walked onto the stage and announced.
Instantly, the gazes of everyone on the stage involuntarily turned towards the platform.
"Little guys, it's time for you to perform."
Wu Chen walked towards the tall platform unhurriedly. Today was the third round of the Alchemist Grand Meeting. Thousands of alchemists were gathered at the scene, preparing to face the upcoming severe test.
Below the platform, hundreds of thousands of pairs of eyes were watching them closely. These people were all outstanding alchemists from various major powers and families. Their potential was limitless, so they were naturally the center of attention.
Among these people, there were two major powers that stood out the most. They were the Beichen House and the Sky Profound Holy Land, and they were both part of the Ten Great Sects of the Immortal Dao. No matter if it was their strength or their soft strength, there was nothing they could say. Right now, the two forces were clashing with each other. It was definitely going to be very intense.
When Wu Chen and the others walked onto the platform, the audience had already started discussing amongst themselves.
"It's finally starting. I can't wait any longer."
"Haha, me too. I can't wait any longer."
"The Sky Profound Holy Land is truly powerful. There are five Tier 5 alchemists and the rest are all Tier 4 alchemists."
"The Beichen House isn't bad either. They also have three Fifth Grade alchemists. These people are all very strong and far stronger than ordinary people."
"The Sky Profound Holy Land and the Beichen House are going to have a fierce battle. Haha!"
"Oh right, I heard that a third-rank alchemist from the Beichen House passed two rounds of the test and entered the third round. Where is that alchemist? Why didn't I see him?"
"Isn't that right?"
"Where is he?"
"[Just a little bit closer to the center of the platform. Isn't that an especially young man who looks like a teenager?]"
"Isn't, isn't he a Tier 4 alchemist?"
"This, I'm not sure either. Yesterday at the 12th arena, he was still a third-rank alchemist. Today, when I looked at him, he turned into a Tier 4 alchemist. This is really strange."
"An alchemist will automatically level up. Hehe, this is quite interesting."
The judge looked at the crowd and said, "Young alchemists, first of all, congratulations on passing the first two rounds of the test. The first two rounds of the test tested one's ability to refine third-rank pills. Today, we are testing your ability to refine Fourth-rank Pill. "
After the first two rounds of tests, especially yesterday's test... All the third-rank alchemists had been eliminated. As for the fellow called Wu Chen... With just one look, one could tell that his strength had reached the level of a Tier 4 alchemist. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to pass two rounds of the competition. He had persisted until now.
Everyone looked at each other. They were no longer as noisy as they were yesterday and the day before yesterday. Instead, each of them had a serious expression on their faces. The questions for the first two rounds... On the surface, it looked simple, but in reality, there were other mysteries. For example, the first round of questions seemed to be testing the Spirit Wind Pill on the surface. But in reality, it was the examination of the Jade Mo Dan, and yesterday's examination question... Although it was a fixed test of the Ternary Pill, it had to be a Supreme Pill.
As for today's test, what it was, and what kind of puzzles it would set up, they had no idea.
"Bring the medicinal herbs."
Immediately, the staff came up to the stage and distributed the medicinal herbs.
When the staff distributed the medicinal herbs, no one spoke. Each of them checked the medicinal herbs they had obtained. There were a total of five sets of medicinal herbs. Each set of medicinal ingredients was separated from each other and distributed by different staff members. Each portion of these medicinal ingredients could be refined into a kind of Fourth-rank Pill. In other words, there were a total of five different medicinal pills that could be refined from these medicinal ingredients.
After obtaining the medicinal ingredients, everyone did not speak nor did they let their imagination run wild. They all looked at the referee, waiting for the referee to explain the specific rules and requirements.
"I believe that all of you have already obtained the medicinal herbs. The medicinal herbs that I have provided you this time... It can be refined into five different types of medicinal pills, namely the Mixed Energy Pill, Thousand Illusion Pill, Wind Speed Pill, Heavenly Heart Pill, and Soul Driving Pill. You can choose any of the three medicinal pills to refine. Of course, you can choose to concoct the Mixed Energy Pill, Thousand Illusion Pill, Wind Speed Pill, Heavenly Heart Pill, and Soul Driving Pill. If you feel that your strength is outstanding enough, you can refine all of them. And our request is to refine at least three types of medicinal pills. The lowest grade of each pill is Mid-Grade, and the competition time is four hours."
Hearing this, a loud sound immediately erupted from below the stage.
"Four hours to refine three types of Fourth-rank Pill, what kind of international joke is this?"
"The difficulty of refining a Fourth-rank Pill itself is very high. On average, each type of medicinal pill requires two hours. There are some difficult medicinal pills that require even more time. There is no one else in this test."
"I reckon that other than a Tier 5 alchemist, no one else can complete the mission within the specified time. This question is simply abnormal."
Everyone discussed animatedly. The scene was extremely heated.
On the other side, the leaders of the teams were also frowning. They had all refined Fourth-rank Pill before. They deeply understood. Refining Fourth-rank Pill was not an easy task. Even a tier 5 alchemist like them... It would take nearly two hours to refine a Fourth-rank Pill. Currently, they needed to refine at least three types of Fourth-rank Pill within four hours. This difficulty was definitely not ordinary.
The expressions of those alchemists on the tall platform involuntarily changed. They were very clear about their own strength. According to their usual pill refining speed, in four hours' time... There was definitely no way for them to refine three types of Fourth-rank Pill.
However, those Tier 5 alchemists became excited and eager to try.
"Four hours. Three types of medicinal pills. The difficulty is high enough. It's exciting enough. I like it." Tang Ji became excited.
Kang Yang nodded and said, "Me too. I originally thought that the preliminaries were boring, but now, I feel like all the cells in my body are alive."
To them, refining Fourth-rank Pill was a piece of cake. Even if it was a Fourth-rank Supreme Pill, they could still refine it. However... The main point this time around was not the refinement of the medicinal pill. Instead, it was to complete the designated refining task within the specified time. Refining three types of Fourth-rank Pill in four hours. This difficulty was something that they had never attempted before.
Yun Shishi did not say anything but silently told herself in her heart that this time, she must be the first to complete the task. She absolutely could not be compared to these two fellows.
