"You are so arrogant outside, do your family members know?"
"If you want to brag, please make a draft first. If you open your mouth like this, you won't be afraid of your tongue flashing in the wind?"
"You are so young and you don't know the heights of the world. Do you know how serious consequences these words will bring to you?"
"In the entire Xieyang City, no one dares to speak to President Mei in this tone!"
"Even some alchemists with extremely superb alchemy skills would not be able to guarantee that they would be able to refine the Breaking Pill in one go, let alone the quality that is better than President Mei!"
In addition to the continuous criticism from the people around him, President Mei’s expression on the high platform also darkened.
"This little friend, you must speak responsibly!"
He clasped his hands behind his back and said contemptuously: "Young people are so ambitious. I can understand that, but if you make unreasonable remarks or talk big words, be careful that trouble comes from your mouth!"
"So you don't believe me anymore?" Ye Chen smiled bitterly.
"If you want me to believe it, that's fine, come on stage and refine it on the spot for everyone to see!"
President Mei seemed to be irritated by Ye Chen, and snorted coldly: "If you don't dare to come up, don't try to flatter others here!"
He didn't believe that the young man in front of him who was talking nonsense was also an alchemist.
After all, he knew almost all the alchemists in Xieyang City, from the old man with one foot in the coffin to the teenagers, but he had never met Ye Chen.
What's more, he has been immersed in the art of alchemy for decades and knows how difficult it is to refine the Breaking Pill.
So even if Ye Chen is an alchemist from other places, he doesn't believe that the other person's alchemy skills are better than his own.
However, just when he thought that Ye Chen would quit despite the difficulties...
"Okay, then let's show off our shame!"
After that, Ye Chen really strode towards the high platform.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Long Hao was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.
Like everyone else, he thought Ye Chen was just trying to please others.
I never thought that I would actually dare to go on stage.
If nothing can be refined later, wouldn’t it mean that we can’t even go down the stairs?
Not only Long Hao, but President Mei was also surprised.
"Young man, are you sure you won't hit the wall or look back?"
He frowned tightly, his old face looked a little livid, and his eyes looking at Ye Chen were full of disgust and anger.
It was not like he had never encountered a clown like Ye Chen before.
But usually, as long as he exerts some psychological pressure or shocks the other party, he will retreat and will not continue to humiliate himself.
But the young man in front of him did the opposite, which made him a little embarrassed.
"Didn't you ask me to come up and refine it for everyone to see?"
Ye Chen shrugged innocently, "I'm here now, and you're staring at me like this, what do you mean?"
"Ha, what if you can't refine it?"
President Mei laughed angrily, "You know, the medicinal materials for refining the Danding Pill are extremely precious, and no alchemist is qualified to touch my cauldron!"
"Then do you want what I refined?" Ye Chen was also a little angry.
One moment he asked me to go up to refine it, and the next moment he said that the medicinal materials were too expensive and the cauldron could not touch them.
Isn’t this just trying to make fun of yourself?
"You can refine it if you want, but you need to swear an oath in public!"
President Mei no longer cared about the majesty of the president, and said sonorously and forcefully: "If you can't refine anything in the end, not only will you have to compensate for the cost of the medicinal materials of 10,000 gold coins, but you will also have to apologize to me and everyone present in public!"
"Besides this, the Alchemist Guild in Xianyang City will never allow you to step in again in the future, and it will never sell any pills to you!"
"What if I succeed in refining it in one go, and the quality is higher than yours?" Ye Chen asked with great interest.
Since it's a gamble, there can't be only one-sided punishment, otherwise wouldn't you suffer a lot?
"Ha, just you?"
President Mei mocked: "Don't say you succeeded in refining it once, even if you succeeded in refining it within five times, and as long as the quality reaches the middle grade, I will admit defeat, how about that?"
"Is it okay to just admit defeat?" Ye Chen shook his head.
"Then what else do you want?" President Mei was a little angry.
"Once I fail to refine it, I have to both compensate and apologize. Why did I succeed in refining it and you just said 'admit defeat' and that's it?"
"this……"
President Mei frowned slightly.
Although he did not believe that Ye Chen could really succeed in refining it, he had to admit that this bet was somewhat unfair.
"Then let's do this. If you successfully refine it within five times and the quality reaches above mid-level, not only will you not have to apologize or compensate for the cost of the medicinal materials, but the elixir will also be yours!"
"That's more like it!"
Ye Chen didn't push himself too far either.
After all, if he dares to go on stage, he is sure to refine it.
But at this moment, he was already impatient.
"Since you promised, then swear it!"
President Mei waved his hand in an aggressive manner.
Ye Chen was very happy and immediately swore a poisonous oath in public.
If you break your promise, you will be struck by lightning and die a good death.
The oath was quite poisonous, but to a time traveler like him, it was just a joke.
"Oh, you really dare to swear, you have courage!"
"If you can't refine it later, believe it or not, I will beat you to death!"
"President Mei just has a good temper and doesn't have the same experience as you. I have never been accustomed to hitting anyone I don't like, young master."
"Let's see how long he can keep being pretentious!"
Even Ye Chen made such a vicious oath, and everyone still laughed at him.
Ye Chen didn't bother to care and climbed onto the high platform carelessly.
The cauldron is still hot, and the medicinal materials for refining the Danding Pill are all available.
"System, system, I have caused public outrage now, you must not cheat me at a critical moment... Oh no, cheat the master!"
With this thought in his mind, he took a deep breath and began to refine the Cap-Breaking Pill in an orderly manner according to the refining method of the Cap-Breaking Pill included in the Enlightenment System.
"Ha, the first step was wrong!"
"I know that this young man is just trying to gain fame. He doesn't even understand the most basic steps. How dare he say such arrogant words?"
President Mei was a little surprised at first, but when he saw Ye Chen's first step in refining, he immediately smiled happily.
No matter what kind of elixir is refined, the general steps are as follows:
1. Refining the medicinal liquid!
Second, remove impurities!
Three, merge into elixir!
Four, keep warm!
The first step of refining the medicinal liquid is to put each medicinal material into the cauldron in batches and slowly refine it into the medicinal liquid.
This process seems simple, but is actually very complicated.
For example, if the heat is too strong, the medicinal materials will be burned directly to ashes; if the heat is too low, the medicinal materials cannot be refined into liquid medicine.
Moreover, the refining time of each medicinal material is very particular. Once the order is wrong, or the time of putting it into the cauldron is too early or too late, the success will be ruined.
Ye Chen's first step was to pour water into the cauldron and then throw all the medicinal materials directly into it.
This is not refining elixirs, it is clearly making soup, okay?
