Chapter 937 Spending a lot of money to seek elixirs
Attracted by the rewards, not only alchemists from various places, but also some alchemists from the Imperial Prefecture came.
"It's a high-grade holy weapon. No matter what, I will get it!"
"I am also determined to get this high-grade holy weapon!"
"Although I have passed the competitive age, this alchemy refining event is still held near our Imperial Preceptor's Mansion. If outside alchemists steal the spotlight, where will our Imperial Preceptor's Mansion's face be put?"
"That's right. Even if it's not for that high-grade holy weapon, for the sake of the face of the National Preceptor's Office, we still have to sign up!"
…
Just when everyone was gearing up and eager to give it a try, a gentle voice like the sound of nature finally came out from the high platform.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
The speaker was a woman with a voluptuous figure and charming appearance.
She stretched out her hands and pressed them in the void. After all the sounds below disappeared, she made an impassioned speech.
Then, she quickly got to the point, "I know that you may doubt the authenticity of this reward. After all, a holy-level high-grade weapon can be regarded as a rare magical weapon!"
"but……"
She changed the subject and added: "In order to dispel your doubts, we will lay out the final prize first and let everyone witness whether it is true or false!"
After saying that, she immediately waved her hand to the back.
The people at the back were already prepared and immediately carried out a delicate box.
However, it did not appear in front of everyone immediately.
Because there are pieces of red cloth covering the box.
The less they were able to see it right away, the more people below were itching and unbearable.
"Hurry up and uncover it!"
"Why are you still covered with red cloth?"
"Do you want to rush everyone to death?"
"Are you trying to seduce everyone by being so secretive?"
Many people began to urge without anger.
The woman on the high platform, waiting for the enthusiasm of the crowd, immediately grabbed a corner of the red cloth, and then with a very graceful gesture, opened the red cloth on the box.
"Whoosh!"
As the red cloth was uncovered, a long sword finally appeared in front of everyone.
That's a long sword!
Even though there is no spiritual power injected into it, the surface is still shining and looks sharp.
"Sure enough, it has reached the holy level!"
"Although I'm not sure if it's a top-grade Saint-level product, as long as it reaches the Saint-level, it's pretty good!"
“I don’t know who the financial backer is, what a big deal!”
"I will decide on this weapon!"
With the reveal of the final prize, those who had doubts at first were finally relieved.
Then, under the call of the host, all the alchemists who were willing to participate in the competition rushed to the stage to sign up.
Ye Chen, who had been hiding in the crowd, immediately climbed up to the high platform and announced his name.
"Huh?
Isn't he the boy from yesterday?"
"Yes, he actually dares to appear here?"
"Haha, am I right? He actually signed up to participate in this medicine refining competition?"
"He also thought that since he had the badge of a first-level alchemist in the Southern Territory, he would be able to surpass the others in alchemy skills after coming to the Central Territory?"
“It’s really overestimating one’s abilities!”
As Ye Chen came on stage to sign up, a burst of laughter immediately came from not far away.
Because these people are the medicine disciples of Master Lin Jingnian from the Imperial Prefecture.
Yesterday at the Imperial Prefecture, they had a quarrel with Ye Chen.
They didn't know where they were looking for Ye Chen to settle the score.
Unexpectedly, Ye Chen took the initiative to deliver it to their door before they found it.
But before several medicine disciples went over to look for Ye Chen, Lin Jingnian waved his hand, "Don't panic, since he signed up to participate in this medicine refining competition, let's wait until it's over!"
"in addition……"
Lin Jingnian glanced at Ye Chen intentionally or unintentionally, and snorted: "Isn't he so arrogant that even I don't take him seriously?
I want to see if his alchemy skills are worthy of his arrogance!"
Because no one stopped him, Ye Chen signed up smoothly.
Then, he quietly retreated and waited for the competition to begin.
There were also many well-known alchemists who came on stage to sign up for the competition.
Among them is Lin Jingnian, the first-level alchemist of the Imperial Prefecture!
As Lin Jingnian also signed up, it immediately aroused a lot of heated discussion.
"With the first-level alchemist from the National Master's Office taking action, the other alchemists are probably out of luck!"
"Yes, Master Lin not only possesses the spiritual fire of heaven and earth, but has also been immersed in the art of alchemy for decades. If he takes action, other alchemists will definitely have no chance!"
"I heard that Master Lin's spiritual fire is the eleventh-ranked Green Leaf Wood Fire. When used to refine elixirs, the fire is extremely stable and efficient!"
"But in addition to Master Lin, there seem to be several very famous alchemists who have also signed up to participate!"
"This medicine refining competition will definitely be a battle between dragons and tigers!"
"I don't know who will end up with this holy-level high-grade long sword?"
…
Under countless pairs of expectant eyes, the number of people who signed up finally became less and less, and in the end no one came on stage to sign up anymore.
It's not that there are too few alchemists present, but because most of the alchemists are not very good at alchemy. After many alchemists with extremely high reputations signed up to participate, these alchemists knew that they had no chance of winning, so naturally they didn't want to go on stage and take it for themselves.
Its humiliation.
Despite this, according to the final statistics, there were still hundreds of alchemists participating in this competition.
"Now that you are all ready, today's medicine refining competition will begin immediately!"
"when!"
With a loud bell, the alchemist who entered the field immediately started refining.
Ye Chen also entered the competition venue.
Every position is piled with all the medicinal materials needed to refine Qi and Blood Pills.
However, for the cauldron and the flame, you have to find a way on your own!
After all, alchemists who can refine holy-level elixirs usually have their own cauldrons and even heaven and earth spiritual fires.
And if you don’t have these, there is no need to participate.
Ye Chen did not start refining immediately, but instead observed the alchemists around him with interest.
He wanted to see if any of the alchemists who signed up to participate could beat him.
You must know that he asked Xiao Rong and Du Yuxiang to hold this medicine refining competition just to attract the attention of the Imperial Master's Office and thus enter the Imperial Master's Office.
If the Qi and Blood Pills refined by someone are of higher quality than him, wouldn't what he has done be equivalent to paying for insults?
Under this observation, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Among the hundreds of alchemists who signed up, at least a dozen of them possess the spiritual fire of heaven and earth.
Even if there is no spiritual fire from heaven and earth, ordinary fire is still integrated into the body.
In particular, the techniques used by some of the alchemists to refine the elixirs are simply superb. The movements are done in one go and the process is extremely smooth.
Among the alchemists who surprised him, it was natural that Master Lin Lin Jingnian, who had met with him yesterday at the Imperial Master's Office, was indispensable.
