Although it was only the result of the first level, seeing Ouyang Chao ranked third was something Ouyang De couldn't accept no matter what.
In his heart, he never thought that Ouyang Chao would lose, let alone that Ouyang Chao would be ranked third.
This ranking is not only humiliating to Ouyang Chao, but also humiliating to Ouyang De.
He was the biggest favorite before the game, and his voice was so high. Faced with praise and adulation from all parties, Ouyang De was also happy to accept it.
If Ouyang Chao really loses, then his Ouyang family will really become the laughing stock of everyone.
Jiang Chen rode Juechen and took the lead, and soon entered the fourth level.
This fourth level is the operation level.
The so-called operations are naturally refining elixirs and cultivating elixirs.
There are three items in operation level.
The first project is to cultivate elixir seeds. It is required that the elixir seeds must be planted and sprouted within three days. For completing this project, you can get 2 points.
The second item, refining the elixir, accounts for 40 points. If the elixir is of low quality, it will get 10 points; if the elixir is of medium quality, it will get 2 points, if it is of high quality, it will get 3 points, and if the elixir is of the best quality, it will get 40 points.
The third project is relatively complex and requires the depiction of alchemy formations. This is undoubtedly the grand finale of this assessment and also accounts for 40 points.
The scores for the three items are added together to equal one hundred points.
Jiang Chen got the elixir seeds and the equipment materials, went to the planting area, observed the soil in the planting area, and analyzed it for a while. Then he returned to the assessment area, made some adjustments to the equipment materials, and came to
Plant the elixir seeds in the planting area.
In this way, the first project is equivalent to completing the first step. Next, it is time to apply fertilizer at a fixed time.
Jiang Chen calculated the time and entered into the second project, refining the Yuan Pei Dan.
Pei Yuan Dan is one of the most popular elixirs in Danqian Palace. Together with Guling Dan, they are the two most commonly used elixirs in Danqian Palace.
Generally speaking, there are not many people in the younger generation of the sect who can independently refine the Peiyuan Pill. Basically, to refine a good Peiyuan Pill requires at least several decades of hard work.
Although Mu Gaoqi is a wild boy, because he was born with a wood spirit body and has talent in alchemy, he is one of the few who can independently refine Yuan Pei Dan.
For some of the geniuses who entered the finals, this was definitely the first time they were faced with the opposite situation of refining the Peiyuan Pill.
As for Jiang Chen, although he has never refined the Peiyuan Pill himself, it does not mean that he does not know how to do it. However, he has never wanted to waste that time refining it.
After all, he received a thousand high-quality Peiyuan Pills from Elder Yun Nie, which was enough for him to use for a long time.
The materials for Peiyuan Dan can be used to refine a batch of six pills.
As for the requirements of this competition, you only need to take the one with the highest quality to compete.
For example, if there are six Peiyuan Pills in a furnace, even if only one is top-quality, it doesn't matter if the other five are trash.
Of course, these materials have been specially marked, so it is absolutely impossible to use the finished Peiyuan Dan as a counterfeit.
Jiang Chen entered the alchemy room and took out the Tisuo tripod presented by the master of the Danchi Palace.
"The Palace Master of the Dan Pond gave me this cauldron, so I must have some expectations. If I can't use this cauldron to refine the top-quality Yuan-Building Dan, then it will be a disgrace to this cauldron."
Jiang Chen thought in his mind, but was not in a hurry. Instead, he meditated on the refining process of Peiyuan Dan in his mind. After meditating once, he deduced it again.
After doing this, Jiang Chen started refining.
For the first time, he did not put all the materials into one furnace, but first used one piece of material to do the experiment.
After the first elixir is released, it will be of the highest quality.
Jiang Chen was not satisfied, so he recalled the first refining process and started the furnace again.
On the third time, a top-quality Peiyuan Pill was announced.
Peiyuan Pill is not a particularly complicated pill. Such a popular pill is refined in batches by many elders in Danqian Palace.
Take Elder Yun Nie as an example. When he refines the Yuan Dan, he refines it one furnace at a time, and each furnace contains twenty or thirty pills.
Basically, you can guarantee that they are all top quality.
If Jiang Chen refined the pills one by one like Jiang Chen, it would not be difficult to refine the top-quality Yuan-Building Pills. Even if he refined them in batches, Elder Yun Nie could achieve a 20-30% rate of producing top-quality pills.
With the release of the best Peiyuan Pill, Jiang Chen's second project was declared completed. After leaving the alchemy room, Jiang Chen went to apply some spiritual fertilizer to the elixir.
After that, Jiang Chen took a short rest and entered the third event, which was also the last event of this competition.
After this is completed, all projects are completed.
In all the previous projects, Jiang Chen had done it perfectly, with almost no mistakes. Most of those assessments were child's play for him.
However, this last project of formation engraving is slightly more technically difficult.
For Jiang Chen, he actually studied the formations very deeply in his previous life, but in this life, he didn't do much with the alchemy formations.
Of course, this does not trouble Jiang Chen. At most, it will make Jiang Chen spend more time.
And time is what Jiang Chen lacks the most right now. He is almost one level ahead of the other geniuses. He is now entering the last project of the final level. Many geniuses are still in the mental level.
At this moment, there are not many geniuses who can enter the fourth level.
Therefore, he has more than enough time.
At this moment, Mu Gaoqi has come out of the mental test. He performed exceptionally well in both the first and second tests.
However, the third level of mental strength has always been his weakness. Although his mental strength has improved to a certain extent during this period with the help of Jiang Chen, his performance in this level of mental strength is still not ideal.
"Well, in the first level of mental strength, I must improve my Mu Gaoqi. It must not hold me back. Fortunately, I should be able to gain a little advantage in the first and second levels. In the third level of mental strength, my performance is average. It just offsets the advantages of the first two levels. The real competition should be placed in the fourth level, the operation level, which is the strength of our Mugao chess.
Although Mu Gaoqi was not a direct descendant of Bencaotang, he was known as Yeluzi in Danqian Palace.
However, his operational ability is indeed obvious to all.
Especially those born with a wood spirit body have unique advantages.
Shortly after all contestants entered the fourth level of assessment, the latest results of the first three levels were released again.
The first place is still Jiang Chen, steady first place, steady full score
At this moment, all the elders were numb. And their thoughts were basically at two extremes. One was to recognize Jiang Chen's genius, and the other was to believe that the Danchi Palace Master and Elder Yun Nie had colluded to cheat Jiang Chen.
Those who think Jiang Chen is cheating are waiting to see Jiang Chen's jokes in the fourth level.
If the first three levels have perfect scores, but the fourth operation level's performance plummets, then it is definitely cheating, and they will have something to say.
Therefore, this small group of people have their own wishful thinking and are waiting to see Jiang Chen make a fool of himself in the fourth level.
Including Ouyang De, he is now very paranoid that Jiang Chen definitely has someone helping him cheat.
However, what made him slightly satisfied was that after three levels, Ouyang Chao's performance finally improved. He ranked second with 20 points, beating Mu Gaoqi.
Mu Gaoqi performed poorly due to mental stress, and is now only ranked third, with only 20 points.
Also scoring 20 points is Ling Huier.
As for the others, there is still a 20-point score.
It is basically difficult for the remaining ones to exceed 0 points. Basically, they have no chance to compete with the Supreme Cave.
Of course, there are no absolutes in the world. The fourth level of operation is very different. It is still very possible that some variables will occur at the fourth level.
Especially the competition for the top two places, the rankings of the first few people are very tight.
Although Jiang Chen scored 30 points, those who suspected him of cheating believed that he would show his cowardice in the fourth level, and it was not impossible for him to be dragged down.
Ouyang Chao ranks second, but compared with others, his advantage is not obvious.
However, when Ouyang De saw Ouyang Chao rushing to second place, he became even more determined. Based on his understanding of Mu Gaoqi's wild approach, it was unlikely that he would surpass Ouyang Chao in the fourth level.
Of course, Ouyang De had no idea that Mu Gaoqi had been baptized by the Wood Spirit Spring, nor did he know that Mu Gaoqi now possessed the Ice and Fire Spirit Orb.
No one except Jiang Chen and Mu Gaoqi knew about these two major killers.
The baptism of the Wood Spirit Spring has made Demu Gaoqi's talent stronger. Cultivating elixirs will definitely make him more skillful, refining elixirs, and controlling the elixir materials will definitely become more micro.
The Ice and Fire Spirit Beads can make him more comfortable in controlling fire.
And the biggest trump card was Jiang Chen’s teaching with him last night, which allowed Mu Gaoqi to score at least 2 more points in the first three levels.
This is also the key to Mu Gaoqi's current ranking in the top three. Otherwise, with the original Mu Gaoqi, the gap between Mu Gaoqi and Ouyang Chao would definitely be more than 10 points.
Not long after Mu Gaoqi and others entered the fourth level, Jiang Chen was almost successful in carving out the formation in the alchemy room.
This formation depiction is just a preliminary depiction. In fact, for Jiang Chen, it is also on a pediatric level.
If he hadn't done it before in this life and was a little cautious when taking action, he should have completed it by now.
Although it wasn't complicated, Jiang Chen was still very careful.
This project involves 40 points, and Jiang Chen does not allow himself to make mistakes.
About half an hour later, Jiang Chen finally finished carving out the last stroke of the formation. In addition to the formation diagram, Jiang Chen also paid attention to the distribution of spirit stones, the echo between the formations, and the arrangement of the formation flags.
…
There is a lot of knowledge, even for a basic formation, there are many steps.
Jiang Chen checked it and confirmed that it was correct, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point, Jiang Chen had been fighting continuously for nearly two days. Although he felt slightly tired, it was still worth it.
He firmly believed that with such performance, the Supreme Cave Mansion would never be able to escape.
Next, what I have to do is to wait for the elixir to sprout and wait for the final result.
He was not worried about himself. The only suspense in his mind was whether Mu Gaoqi could defeat Ouyang Chao. After going through the third mental test, Jiang Chen was most worried about Mu Gaoqi.
If Mu Gaoqi can successfully overcome this hurdle, he will definitely have no problem defeating Ouyang Chao. On the contrary, there will be suspense in the contest between the two of them, and the winner must be decided at the last minute.
(The third update is completed. If you have recommendation tickets or monthly tickets, please throw them over, hahaha.)
