Ling Xuewei was the first to complete the first alchemist competition, but after completing the competition, she could not leave the competition venue. Ling Xuewei could only find a place to sit down next to Hongyue Lingxiao and observe the enemy's situation.
Ling Xuewei could finally see that her level of refining elixirs was now on par with an alchemist at the Dan Sect level. Even if she didn't rely on the Shennong Pearl in this competition, she might not be able to win.
The alchemists who came to this alchemist competition are not really powerful alchemists from the Cang Yun Realm. The highest level of these alchemists is only the middle-level alchemy sect, a small number of them are low-level alchemy sects, and more are
He is a top-grade alchemist.
Ling Xuewei estimated that her current ability in refining medicine should be similar to that of He Xiujie, the elder of the Heavenly Beast Sect, both of whom were lower-level alchemy sects.
Just as Ling Xuewei was carefully observing and pondering the strength of the opponents participating in the alchemist competition, another alchemist stood up from the competition area.
"Look, Yu Chixi has also completed all twenty kinds of elixirs!" A cultivator from the crowd immediately called out.
"As expected of the alchemist of the Yuchi family, he has already completed this competition in less than an hour!" Others sighed.
In the eyes of everyone, Ling Xuewei completed the competition ahead of schedule because she only knew how to refine low-level elixirs, so she could refine low-level elixirs faster than everyone else.
However, when it came to Yu Chixi's place, everyone changed their style of painting. Even before the results of this competition came out, everyone firmly believed that the low-level elixir refined by Yuchixi must have both quality and speed.
of.
"Elder Lingxiao, I have completed the competition, please check the elixir in the jade box." Yu Chixi handed the wooden box to Hongyue Lingxiao.
Hong Yue Lingxiao quickly counted the elixirs in Yuchi Xi's jade box, and after confirming that there were no problems with the quantity and type, he announced to all the audience.
"Yu Chixi completed the test second and received nine extra points."
As soon as Hong Yue Lingxiao finished speaking, the atmosphere in the competition room suddenly became extremely tense.
There is still half an hour before the official end of the competition, but at this time, there are two fewer extra points. The slower you go, the fewer extra points you will get.
If this comes later, if there are only a few extra points, the advantage of these extra points will have little meaning.
All the contestants held their breath, no one wanted to be compared here.
After Yu Chixi completed the competition, he could only stay in the competition venue. He naturally stood next to Ling Xuewei.
"I admire Miss Ling's alchemy skills. She can actually refine twenty kinds of elixirs in one hour." Yu Chixi suddenly said next to Ling Xuewei.
Ling Xuewei did not expect that Yu Chixi would actually take the initiative to talk to her. The alchemists were more cold-blooded than the other, especially those with a background like Yu Chixi.
Zhang Yuanming tried his best to find Yu Chixi these days, but he couldn't even see Yu Chixi's face.
"Young Master Yuchi is really overrated. He's a little bit better at refining low-level elixirs, but that's not really his skill." Ling Xuewei laughed dryly.
She felt that there was no mistaking that Yu Chixi was sincerely praising her.
An alchemist like Yu Chixi simply doesn't care about refining low-level elixirs.
"Miss Ling, don't get me wrong!" Yu Chixi said with deep meaning, "I won't doubt your alchemy ability just because you are refining low-level elixirs, Miss Ling. On the contrary, Miss Ling can refine them so quickly.
The fact that he has produced so many low-level elixirs shows that Ling Xuewei's accomplishments in alchemy cannot be underestimated!"
The group of alchemists around the competition venue who couldn't even qualify for the alchemy competition naturally couldn't compare with Yu Chixi.
Because of Ling Xuewei's speed in refining low-level elixirs, Yu Chixi came to a completely opposite judgment from the previous alchemist.
"Young Master Yuchi, you really know how to joke. My attainments in alchemy are definitely not comparable to those of the Yuchi family's alchemists. In today's first competition, I just have better luck." Ling Xuewei said lightly.
"Miss Ling, you are so humble. I am looking forward to your next two competitions." Yu Chixi said.
"Master Yuchi, the results of this competition haven't come out yet. How can you be so sure that I will be able to enter the next two rounds of competitions?" Ling Xuewei reminded Yuchixi.
"I trust my instincts!"
Immediately afterwards, the cultivators presented the jade boxes in which they placed the elixirs one after another, and the extra points were quickly divided up.
What surprised Ling Xuewei was that He Xiujie, the elder of the Heavenly Beast Sect who was not good at refining pills, was the fourth to complete the first round of the competition, which meant that He Xiujie also received seven extra points.
"I can't believe that He Xiujie is an opponent who cannot be underestimated." Ling Xuewei suddenly felt that this competition was becoming more and more interesting.
"How can a cultivator who can reach the position of elder of the eight major sects be a fuel-efficient lamp?" Yu Chixi seemed to be very interested in Ling Xuewei, and whispered into Ling Xuewei's ear.
"Okay, all the contestants have completed the first competition." Hongyue Lingxiao said to everyone, "I think before announcing the results of each contestant, everyone has already judged their own results, so we will
Let’s start the scoring from the contestant who handed over the jade box at the end.”
Hong Yue Lingxiao waved to his men, and a guard from Hong Yue City walked to Hong Yue Lingxiao's side holding the jade box of the last contestant who completed the competition.
Hong Yue Lingxiao picked up the jade box and gently brushed his hand over the elixir in the jade box.
"Participant No. 48 has refined a total of eight low-grade spiritual pills, ten high-grade Yuan pills, and two mid-grade Yuan pills. There are no extra points, and the total score is forty-six points."
When this result came out, it greatly exceeded all the audience's expectations.
Everyone thought that this competition was quite simple, just refining twenty low-level elixirs. However, at the moment when the results of contestant No. 48 were announced, the result was even less than a passing 60 points.
No.
Everyone finally realized that this first competition was not as simple as they believed.
For low-level elixirs, cultivators outside can usually buy them with spirit stones, and only human elixirs are the only ones. Even high-grade human elixirs are very precious.
Because powerful alchemists rarely refine low-level elixirs themselves, low-level elixirs at the Yuan Dan level are very, very rare. You can often encounter two, and they can be sold for hundreds or thousands of dollars in an instant.
A rare item of spiritual stone.
As for low-level elixirs at the level of spiritual elixirs, they are almost impossible to come by.
No matter what kind of elixir it is, it is very precious.
The success rate of refining high-level elixirs is already very low, let alone refining low-level elixirs. This is simply a waste of medicinal materials.
Among the twenty kinds of low-level elixirs refined by contestant No. 48, eight of them were low-grade elixirs. Even though they were only low-grade elixirs, everyone could still tell that this
Each contestant is definitely an excellent alchemist.
"Participant No. 52 has refined a total of three low-grade spiritual pills, thirteen high-grade Yuan pills, and four mid-grade Yuan pills. There are no extra points, and the total score is thirty-nine points."
"Contestant No. 21 has refined a total of two low-grade spiritual pills, twelve high-grade Yuan pills, and six mid-grade Yuan pills. There are no extra points, and the total score is thirty-six points."
"Participant No. 35 has refined a total of six low-grade spiritual pills, nine high-grade Yuan pills, and five mid-grade Yuan pills. There are no extra points, and the total score is forty-one points."
…
Hongyue Lingxiao announced everyone's results one by one. The underground audience was surprised to find that the initial forty-eight points was still a high score, and many contestants' final scores did not even reach forty points.
"No way..."
Ling Xuewei was shocked when she heard this result. It was really far from what she had expected at the beginning.
Ling Xuewei initially thought that refining low-level elixirs was not difficult. Everyone was an experienced alchemist. Not to mention getting five points for high-level elixirs, the three or four points for each elixir should not be a problem.
.
The gap between reality and ideas is really big.
Ling Xuewei felt that it would not be difficult at all for an alchemist or an alchemist at the Alchemy Sect level to refine low-level elixirs to reach the quality of elixirs as long as they were careful.
The other contestants thought the same way.
And when they were actually refining elixirs, they discovered that it was not easy to refine low-level elixirs into spiritual elixirs. Let alone refining elixirs, they just ensured that all refining
The low-level elixirs that came out were all high-grade Yuan Dan, and they couldn't do it either.
Therefore, among the twenty elixirs finally refined by the contestants, only a few were low-grade elixirs, most were high-grade Yuan Dan, and there were only a few middle-grade Yuan Dan.
This kind of score is generally not high.
Ling Xuewei didn't want to be too high-profile during this competition, so she didn't use the Shennong Pearl to ensure that every elixir she refined was a top-grade elixir.
Ling Xuewei can control the quality of the elixirs she refines. In order to ensure that she can advance smoothly, Ling Xuewei counts ten extra points. All the elixirs she refines are at the level of spiritual elixirs or above, most of which are
There are middle-grade elixirs, and a small number are low-grade elixirs.
Ling Xuewei thought that this way she could guarantee a good or bad result, and at least prevent the people from the Heavenly Beast Sect from finding out her details.
But the reality is that Ling Xuewei's current result is not at all a result that is on the edge of advancement and can be easily passed with ten extra points, but a result that can easily enter the top few without extra points.
