“Why?” Liuyue was a little surprised. Lin Lin was the one with the least experience in alchemy among the five, and his aptitude wasn’t top-notch. To be honest, he was a little surprised that he could advance to the finals. After all, the alchemists who dared to participate in the competition all had a certain level of strength, and there wasn’t much of a difference in their strength.
“His talent may not be the best, but he wins in hard work. As the saying goes, hard work makes up for it. That’s why he’s quite skilled in pill concoction. Because he knows what he’s lacking, he can see his strengths and weaknesses. This is the so-called “well-prepared!”” Leng ruoxue gave a simple analysis.
However, alchemy was a profession that burned money. Before becoming famous, it was not easy for an ordinary Alchemist to refine good pills. After all, no one would be stupid enough to hand over their precious herbs to an unknown Alchemist to refine pills. The loss would be immeasurable. And from the clothes of this Alchemist named Lin Lin, his alchemy career had not been smooth sailing. His days were even more tight. The resources that could be provided for him were pitifully few. Otherwise, he would not be so sloppy. The medicinal pills that he refined were so ordinary that they could not be more ordinary.
If Leng ruoxue’s guess was correct, Lin Jian was definitely trying to get a high score in the first two rounds. This way, he would have a higher chance of competing with the other four alchemists.
The finals between alchemists and blacksmiths were divided into three rounds. The first two rounds tested ordinary pills and equipment. It wasn’t difficult to gather the materials, but the simpler something was, the more it tested a person’s basic skills. Therefore, if Lin Jun wanted to get a good result in the competition, he naturally had to show his full strength. As for the last round, it was the refinement of pills of his own choice.
The so-called free choice of pills, in addition to the pill that one was best at, one also had to test the grade, quality, and so on. These were all important criteria for scoring. After all, although the profession of an Alchemist was respected, the personal ability and connections of an Alchemist were also very important. If an Alchemist could not even support himself, then he could only be regarded as a failed Alchemist!
However, Leng ruoxue was very curious. What kind of pill would be refined in the last round?
Looking at the bright and beautiful clothes of the other four, and the confident smiles on their faces, it was not difficult to see that they had good resources on hand, but the jungle …
“Ruoxue, your taste is indeed different! Even though forest made it to the finals, Did you know? Many people were not optimistic about him and even thought that he would stop at the top five. It would be difficult for him to go any further. Although his Foundation is not bad and his score in the first few rounds of pill refining is very high, his score in choosing his own pill is not very ideal. This also pulled down his ranking. Otherwise, with his foundation strength, he could definitely enter the top three. ” Liuyue said with a look of regret.
“Why? No good herbs?” Leng ruoxue guessed. To an Alchemist, the quality of the medicinal ingredients would determine the grade and quality of the pill. This was especially so in such an important competition. If he could concoct a Supreme grade pill that no one else could, then the champion would definitely be him.
“That’s only one aspect. According to our guess, he probably hasn’t refined any high-grade pills. After all, his family can only provide him with very few resources. They’re just a small family in decline, and his aptitude isn’t the best. Naturally, it’s impossible for them to fully support him in alchemy. ” Liuyue said indifferently.
In fact, there was another fact that he didn’t say. Lin Lin’s family clan had not only sent one Alchemist to participate in this competition, and the treatment of another Alchemist was obviously better than his. It was obvious that he wasn’t The Alchemist that the family clan had nurtured with all their might. Unfortunately, The Alchemist that the family had nurtured with all their might had very average results, while the unknown and ordinary-looking Lin Lin had amazed everyone with a single brilliant feat! I wonder if this is a big irony? The families in the forest must be regretting their decisions now.
In fact, Liuyue had guessed correctly. The head of the Cong family, who was where Lin en was, looked at Lin en, who was dressed shabbily on the stage, and was filled with regret. Although their family had sent Lin en to participate in The Alchemist competition, they had not thought highly of Lin en at all. Naturally, they had not spent much effort to prepare any good medicinal herbs for him. After all, in their eyes, Lin en was only there to make up the numbers, and it was precisely because of this that the Cong family had become famous!
However, when he saw the strange looks from the other families, the master of the Cong family felt his face burn. Unfortunately, it was too late to prepare the medicinal herbs for the forest. After all, time waited for no one!
AI! The master of the Cong family sighed. He had a chance to get a better result, but he was satisfied to get fifth place! After all, the Cong family had never achieved such a good result before. Because of the jungle, the Cong family could finally hold their heads high. However, the jungle … He was a little conflicted when he thought about it.
However, Lin Jian, who was focused on refining pills on the arena, had no time to understand the depressed mood of the Cong family’s head. The only thing he was thinking about was to try his best to complete the competition perfectly.
The first two rounds of The Alchemist competition quickly came to an end under everyone’s anticipation. Lin Yun was ranked second among the five alchemists with a one point difference. This result was already quite satisfying for Lin Yun and had exceeded his expectations. After all, the three alchemists of The Alchemist Guild headquarters were not to be underestimated!
After the first two rounds of the competition, the five alchemists would be given time to rest. Therefore, the last round was scheduled for the afternoon.
What followed after was the competition of the blacksmiths.
The five participants of the blacksmith’s competition were of equal strength and all of them belonged to the blacksmith’s Association, so there wasn’t much suspense. Everyone’s anticipation turned to the alchemist’s competition that would take place in the afternoon.
After the first two rounds of The Alchemist competition, Leng ruoxue whispered a few words to Feng Da. Feng Da nodded and left his seat.
Liuyue and the others could not help but ask curiously,””Ruoxue, what did you ask Feng Da to do?”
“Hahaha! The secrets of heaven must not be divulged!” Leng ruoxue said with a mysterious look.
Liuyue and the others were helpless when Leng ruoxue kept them in suspense.
Time passed in the anticipation of the crowd.
In the afternoon.
The last round of the blacksmith’s competition was the first to take place.
However, there wasn’t much suspense in the blacksmith’s competition, so the spectators were a little dispirited. The final winner of the blacksmith’s competition was also within their expectations, so more people set their eyes on The Alchemist competition that was about to take place.
Because the five participants of The Alchemist competition had similar results, no one could predict who would win the championship. However, they knew that whoever could refine a Supreme grade pill that no one else could refine in the last round would win!
“Ruoxue, are you still optimistic about the forest?” In the audience, Liuyue asked with a smile.
“Of course! I believe in my own judgment!” Leng ruoxue said with a confident smile. Then, she turned her beautiful eyes to the five alchemists who were making their preparations on the stage in the middle of the competition ground.
At this time, the five alchemists were already seated in their respective positions and carefully checking their pill furnaces. Then, other than Lin Lin, the other four took out the medicinal ingredients they had prepared earlier from their storage rings, confidently waiting for the final round to begin.
The last round of the competition was extremely important to The Alchemist Guild headquarters. Hence, Shen nuo personally took on the role of the judge. When Shen nuo saw that the other four had already prepared the medicinal ingredients, and among them were quite a few precious medicinal ingredients, but when he saw that there was nothing in front of the forest, his heart felt a little conflicted.
In fact, he quite admired Lin Yun. This Alchemist’s aptitude was not very outstanding, but his understanding of alchemy and his care for medicinal herbs far exceeded other alchemists. The only pity was that their Alchemist Guild headquarters had discovered this talent too late. Otherwise, they would have accepted him into The Alchemist Guild headquarters earlier. With Lin Yun’s diligence, he was bound to have a different kind of achievement. Perhaps he could have become an honorable master of alchemy by now.
What a pity! Without good medicinal materials, it was naturally impossible to refine higher grade medicinal pills, and it was difficult to make great progress in the achievement of alchemy master. Therefore, the alchemy master level of the jungle could only barely maintain the strength of an alchemy Grandmaster. This was also because his basic skills were solid, and he could use ordinary medicinal materials to refine pills that were suitable for the level of an alchemy Grandmaster. Otherwise, he would not even be able to reach the level of an alchemy Grandmaster.
AI! Shen nuo sighed softly, feeling extremely regretful in her heart. However, what made him even more conflicted was that Lin Lin was actually unwilling to become The Alchemist Guild’s exclusive Alchemist, just because the Guild had once rejected him. Although he did not understand the course of this matter, from this, he could see that Lin Lin was an Alchemist with a very strong sense of self-esteem. And for such a proud person, unless there was a true Bo Le who appreciated him, otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to survive in this world.
Immediately after, Shen nuo’s eyes widened.
Not only him, but the judges and the other four alchemists on the stage also widened their eyes in unison, as if they had seen a ghost!
What did they just see?
They actually saw the jungle taking out medicinal herbs from the storage ring. In fact, this shouldn’t have surprised them. Unfortunately, the medicinal herbs taken out from the jungle were better than the ones they had prepared. There were also a few more that they didn’t even dare to think about!
Look at that fire ginseng, even though it’s only a small piece, the spiritual energy is so dense that it’s unbelievable!
And the petals of the fire Lotus were also as dazzling as fire, crystal clear like jade, beautiful beyond words!
And …
