"One elixir counts as five points, and twenty elixirs count as one hundred points in total."
"High-grade spiritual pills are worth five points, middle-grade spiritual pills are worth four points, low-grade spiritual pills are worth three points, high-grade Yuan pills are worth two points, and middle-grade Yuan pills are worth one point. Low-grade Yuan pills and human pills are worth just a few points."
"The twenty kinds of elixirs that you have refined will be ranked according to the scoring rules I just mentioned, and then the total scores will be calculated. Contestants ranked after twenty are sorry but cannot participate in the next round of competition."
"In addition, all twenty elixirs must be refined to participate in the scoring. If one elixir is missing, even if your other nineteen elixirs are top-grade elixirs, you will be eliminated."
Such a clear scoring rule made many cultivators look at the alchemist competition in Red Moon City with admiration.
Alchemists or alchemists at the level of the Alchemy Sect, when refining low-level elixirs, they can indeed refine elixirs of better quality, such as Yuan Dan or Ling Dan level elixirs.
However, even an alchemist of the Alchemy Saint level cannot guarantee that every low-level elixir he refines will be a high-grade elixir. At most, the low-level elixirs he refines will be high-grade elixirs.
The probability is much higher than that of other alchemists.
Everyone finally understood why Red Moon City required contestants to refine twenty low-level elixirs in one go.
The twenty kinds of low-level elixirs refined must be elixirs above the middle-grade Yuan Dan level, otherwise they will not be included in the scoring.
Under such a scoring rule, even when refining low-level elixirs, the final score of the contestants may be greatly increased. To get the top twenty among this group of contestants, it becomes
A very simple thing.
"This competition is limited to two hours, so you must arrange your time reasonably." Hongyue Lingxiao reminded again, and then said to everyone, "These are the rules. Do you have any other questions?"
Hongyue Lingxiao swore that he just asked politely.
The competition rules carefully formulated by Hongyue City are already perfect to the point of being impeccable in Hongyue Lingxiao's opinion. It is impossible for these contestants to have any doubts.
After listening to the rules of the competition, all the contestants have begun to carefully think about the strategy for this competition.
Regardless of the twenty types of elixirs to be refined in this competition, they only have two hours, and the use of time is the key to this competition.
If you want to refine high-quality elixirs, you must spend more time and effort. This quality represents points. Only by getting more points can you have the opportunity to enter the second round of the competition.
"I have a question!"
A voice suddenly came to mind among the contestants, successfully interrupting their thinking.
The tempers of these contestants suddenly rose, and they stared in the direction of the sound. They wanted to see which contestant who could not understand human speech had so many problems.
The rules are so clear.
But when the contestants turned their heads and saw that the person who said there was a problem was Ling Xuewei, they were so angry that they couldn't express themselves.
No one thinks that Ling Xuewei is very good at alchemy, especially after seeing Ling Xuewei's performance in the qualification review of the alchemist competition. If it weren't for the people from Red Moon City, Ling Xuewei wouldn't even be qualified to participate in the competition.
Ling Xuewei is most likely a rookie alchemist.
Many people even suspected that Ling Xuewei might not even be able to successfully enter the top 20 in the first round of the alchemist competition. In this way, the huge stakes of the alchemist competition would be determined in advance.
Although Hongyue Lingxiao made the rules very clear, who made Ling Xuewei a rookie?
It's understandable that a rookie doesn't understand the rules.
"Is it possible that Ling Xuewei doesn't even understand the rules, and knows that she is going to lose her big bet with the Heavenly Beast Sect, so she becomes anxious?" A cultivator in the crowd made a guess, "Generally speaking, cultivators who participate in the competition,
No one said that there is still a problem. Even if Ling Xuewei has a problem, she will pretend that there is no problem, right?"
"I thought Ling Xuewei could bring us a little surprise, but it seems my expectations were in vain."
Most people feel that Ling Xuewei's defeat is certain.
Although Hongyue Lingxiao politely asked if there was any problem, he never thought that anyone would dare to say the word "yes".
Hongyue Lingxiao was interrupted several times today. When she heard the words "I have a problem", her anger suddenly jumped to the top of her head.
"explain!"
Hongyue Lingxiao spat out a word coldly. Originally, he was not prepared to pay attention to this contestant who dared to go against him. However, after Hongyue Lingxiao saw clearly that the person was Ling Xuewei, he saw that Ling Xuewei helped him win 400 yuan.
For the sake of spending 10,000 mid-grade spiritual stones, I am prepared to listen to Ling Xuewei’s question.
"Two hours to refine twenty pills, I think there is plenty of time. There is also a speed for refining pills. I think those contestants who refine the pills faster are within the alchemist's ability."
Therefore, this should be taken into account in the final scoring, so extra points should be given to alchemists who complete the competition early!" Ling Xuewei said slowly.
After hearing Ling Xuewei's words, the other contestants were almost ready to kneel down to Ling Xuewei.
Each of them is still carefully calculating how to arrange these two hours to get a higher score. Fortunately for Ling Xuewei, two hours is too much. It is impossible to refine twenty different low-level elixirs.
It doesn't take that long.
Did Ling Xuewei understand the rules of this competition?
Can this elixir be cured by just practicing it casually?
All the contestants were immediately furious. They felt that Ling Xuewei was deliberately looking for trouble.
"What Miss Ling said makes sense."
Hongyue Lingxiao nodded and began to seriously consider Ling Xuewei's proposal.
"Competitors who complete the competition early should indeed be rewarded with extra points. I will give all participants ten extra points. The ten participants who complete the competition first before the two times specified in the competition will participate.
Ten points will be added to the first place, nine points will be added to the second place, eight points will be added to the third place, and so on, one point will be added to the tenth place. It will be included in the total score. For all contestants, if you want this extra bonus
If you want to score points, please refine all twenty kinds of elixirs as soon as possible. If you want to improve the quality of the elixirs, then please ignore this latest bonus point rule."
This time the alchemist competition is becoming more and more exciting. Now it is not just a test of the alchemist's ability to refine elixirs. If you want to get better results, the choice of competition strategy is also a very important key.
The first one to complete the test will get ten extra points.
Although ten points may not seem like much, it requires improving the quality of half of the twenty types of elixirs refined in the competition to a higher level in order to gain so many points.
For example, if you refine ten middle-grade elixirs, you will only get 40 points according to the normal scoring. However, if you refine ten low-grade elixirs and add ten extra points for being the first to complete the competition, you will also get four points.
very.
Refining ten low-grade elixirs is much easier than refining ten mid-grade elixirs.
None of the alchemists present were arrogant enough to think that all the twenty types of elixirs they refined could be top-grade elixirs, and each one received a perfect score of five points.
Being able to have more than five high-grade elixirs out of twenty kinds of elixirs is already a very good achievement. The quality of the elixirs that will be refined will still depend on luck.
Therefore, most of the elixirs refined by cultivators will only be between low-grade elixirs and mid-grade elixirs. In this case, it is crucial to gain extra points.
With the additional bonus points in the competition, not only did no one think of thanking Ling Xuewei, but most of the contestants began to curse in their hearts.
If it weren't for Ling Xuewei's unnecessary move, how could a simple competition lead to so many things!
Only women like Ling Xuewei have the most things to do!
She'd better be eliminated in the first competition as soon as possible, out of sight and out of mind!
"Does anyone have any other questions?"
Hongyue Lingxiao suddenly discovered that everyone could make this competition more interesting by brainstorming.
He suddenly began to expect more suggestions from the contestants.
However, many contestants only hope that the competition will be as simple as possible, so that they can get what they want as soon as possible.
They don't want to accompany Red Moon City to perform in this competition arena.
"If there are no problems, then all contestants are asked to stand at the designated position according to their numbers and wait for the villagers of Yuedong Village to draw the elixir to be refined this time."
The platform has already been divided into areas to ensure that all contestants have a place to refine the elixir.
What happened next became even simpler. Each contestant wrote the name of a low-level elixir. After being recognized by other contestants, he put the wooden board with the name on it into the wooden box.
.
Hongyue Lingxiao shook the wooden box in front of everyone, then randomly selected a few children around ten years old from the crowd of villagers watching the excitement, and asked these children to take out a few wooden boards from the wooden box.
.
Red Moon City's attitude of striving for fairness made all the cultivators present, including the contestants, willing to believe that this competition was absolutely fair and just, and there were no tricks.
Originally, they were only refining twenty types of low-level elixirs, and there was not much value in cheating in the selection of low-level elixirs.
Twenty wooden plaques were hung directly in the center of the competition venue, and the medicinal materials needed to refine low-level elixirs were also placed in the center of the competition venue for all cultivators to take.
There are no special regulations on the order in which these twenty kinds of elixirs can be refined. The alchemist can make them at will according to his own habits.
