Chapter 893 The Competition Begins
With such a terrifying number of alchemists participating at the same time, this is the first time that an alchemist event has appeared for so many years. It must be said that the name of the Alchemist Pill Pole Star is still very appealing.
"Let's keep everyone waiting!" The old man closed the registration booklet and said slowly, "Let's not talk nonsense, let the contestants come on stage.
As soon as the words fell, each alchemist showed their magical powers, and the stone platform square was filled with people in the blink of an eye, but many alchemists were still working hard due to their weak bodies. climb up.
Each stone on the stone platform square corresponds to a contestant, but there are only 500 stones in the entire station, which means that many people do not have their own place.
"Stop!" Seeing that there were people standing on each stone, the old man's voice sounded like a bell.
"If you don't take the stage, your luck is not very good, and you will be automatically eliminated!"29
As soon as these words came out, the alchemists who didn't squeeze into Shitai Square exclaimed in surprise. They didn't expect that this competition would actually test their luck?
Jiang Xiaolong and Xie Tianzong on the high-rise platform looked at each other and nodded slightly. It seemed that both of them understood the intention.
If even Shitai Square couldn't squeeze in, then basically he was a 1st or 2nd rank alchemist. Even if he participated in the competition, he would be eliminated early. This seemingly random requirement was the first hurdle of the competition.
Jiang Xiaolong secretly gave a thumbs up: "This is a trick..."
The old man snapped his fingers loudly in the direction behind him.
"Boom!"
A loud bang came, and a pale white air film like a shield of infuriating qi suddenly appeared in the sky and slowly fell down, just wrapping the entire Shitai Square. Locations are separated.
"What is this?" Jiang Xiaolong asked in surprise.
Bai Zhu replied, "This is a defensive formation that places the alchemist in an independent space to avoid being disturbed."
It is normal to fail in alchemy. If someone disturbs the alchemy, the pill cauldron and the medicinal materials can be destroyed.
"This first item, then..." The old man deliberately left suspense and said after a while, "Refining at will.
"What? So simple?"
The contestants showed expressions of disbelief.
The old man looked around, pointed to the back and said: "In the time of a stick of incense, choose the medicinal pill to be refined, and collect the medicinal materials there. When the time is up, I will send someone to appraise it. 39
Bai Zhu's face was solemn and he was thinking about something before he said, "This is not so simple." Jiang Xiaolong also nodded, only Xie Tianzong showed a puzzled look.
"The time for a stick of incense is too urgent, so it can only succeed and not fail." Jiang Xiaolong explained softly when Xie Tianzong was puzzled.
"That's easy too, you just need to refine some good medicine pills." Xie Tianzong said with a little doubt.
"Tian Zong, you still have a lot to learn." Bai Zhu sighed, and then explained, "This level doesn't say what the criteria for promotion are..."
Xie Tianzong seemed to understand a little.
Jiang Xiaolong continued Bai Zhu's words and said: "There are two difficulties in this level. The first is to choose pills. Whether to choose a safe pill or to pursue high-level adventures, this requires the contestants to weigh. Second, It's part of the test to be able to handle the pressure in such a tight time frame."
"Not bad." Bai Zhu glanced at Jiang Xiaolong approvingly.
Xie Tian bowed his hands in a salute: "I'm really taught.""
While speaking, many alchemists have already gone to collect the materials, but some people are still thinking hard.
The onlookers were all eagerly watching the game at this time.
Gen Kuai, the flames on the stone platform square, all the alchemists have already begun to concoct alchemy in full swing, and the time has passed the small half column of incense.
This test of basic skills, obviously many people have not passed, the sound of "bang bang" sounded from time to time, and some people have already fried the furnace.
Jiang Xiaolong looked at the incense that was about to burn out, and his eyes also looked back and forth on the various alchemists at the same time. "Stop!" At the moment when the incense burnt out, the old man walked to the square and drank.
The alchemists who had completed all breathed a sigh of relief, but those who hadn't completed had an ugly look on their faces, already realizing their failure.
This seemingly simple level actually eliminated an unbelievably large level of completion.
"Intentionally..." Jiang Xiaolong thought to himself.
At this time, more than ten high-level alchemists had already stepped onto the square and started the appraisal work in an orderly manner.
"Trash!" Looking at the black pill, which was hastily formed, an appraiser threw it on the ground in disdain, and also announced the elimination of the contestant.
"This is not bad, I'll be promoted." An old appraiser next to him took a third-grade medicine pill and looked at it, and then put it back into the furnace at will, and the master who made this medicine pill had a hint of pride on his face. color.
At the time of the text, an appraiser in the middle sighed in surprise.
"Four-grade medicinal herbs are of high quality!"
"At last there is a good one. 39 Bai Zhu nodded slightly and said, "It takes only one stick of incense to refine a high-quality fourth-grade medicinal pill, and the basic skills are already very stable. 35
