C735 Second Game
No one thought that the second round would be like this. One must know that there were some people who couldn't even think of it in the end and simply wrote it down, so it couldn't be counted as a pill formula. If they copied the ancient formulas of the previous generations, they could still refine the pill, but the herbs they recognized were too few, and they had no way to complete a complete pill formula.0
Zhong Ming also thought of this outcome, but how could the evaluators come up with such a question, with these few types of herbs, it would be extremely difficult to concoct pills, it seemed like it would be difficult to obtain a rank.
The judges did not give anyone a chance to discuss, so they said, "Quiet, this question was set on the basis of the first round. If there are any mistakes, take responsibility; after all, you wrote them yourself, but you can also choose to give up."
As soon as his voice fell, the entire audience fell into silence. No one spoke anymore. These people had gone through so much difficulty to enter the competition, how could they let this slip by so easily?
At this moment, the large screen in front of him lit up, revealing the examiners' appearances. The main examiner said, "Everyone, don't panic, this time we're mainly recording the process of concocting pills, even if you haven't succeeded, but during the process of refining, the purity of the herbs extracted will be high, and your score won't be too low. We'll judge your score based on the process."
Zhong Ming knew that in the process of refining pills, every Pharmacist would break down, purify and condense the medicinal ingredients. This process was done by everyone with the best quality, to determine the points, not everyone could successfully refine this temporary pill.
Even if you were able to refine a low level pill, and the concentration of your pill is especially good and high, your score would still be very high.
"But there are only these few herbs. Some people recognize many of them, and some people don't recognize many of them. Is this a fair competition?" A participant asked.
Everyone knows very well just how fair it is that others can recognize it, but you can't. Also, we are just watching the process, even if you can only recognize one type of elixir, you can still break it down and refine it, and if you can reach perfection, your score may be higher than those who know five or six herbs, and they won't be able to achieve perfection, but if you can refine the pill, then your score will be higher than the others. The judge said indifferently.
Only then did everyone understand. Even though they couldn't refine a pill, if they were especially proficient and perfect in the process, then the purity would be very high as well.
Zhong Ming had the best purification when refining the pills, and was the fastest to produce the pills, so it was not difficult for him to do so. If he was to use 'Nine Heavens Lotus Fire' to advance to the top 10, it should not be a problem, but Yan Daxing was nearby, so he could not reveal it. However, if he were to use his own True Fire to refine the pills, although it could not achieve a 100% success, it was still possible.
This time, apart from a few rare herbs, the rest were all cheap herbs. This way, there wouldn't be too much of a loss after the competition, and the cost of wasting them would also be reduced. After all, the standards of the Pharmacist here varied. If the outsider refines all the precious herbs, then the gains would not make up for the losses.
Just these few types of herbs, and in addition, they were all ordinary herbs, so for them to form a pill and to refine one with such high purity, that was simply a pipe dream. All of these people were sweating because they thought that it would not be easy for them to get a place in the 'Medicine Ghost Valley' this time around.
Not long after these participants sat down, they received the Pill Furnace used for the competition as well as the required medicinal ingredients. This Pill Furnace was truly not ordinary, all of them used formations, so no matter how one operated, the judges would be able to see it clearly. Furthermore, they would record the detailed operation of the Pill Furnace, allowing everyone to understand the pill refining process at a glance.
After all, they only had one chance this time. While nervous, they didn't dare to neglect it.
Zhong Ming was actually using the 'Dry Flames' to rank 17, while Sir Kunshan was actually using the 'Orchid Flame' to rank tenth. Even Liu Han used the 'Barbarian Heart Flame' to rank 29, although the rankings were a little lower, these were all Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure, and he could only use his True Origin to fight them. Thinking about it, Zhong Ming felt that it would be extremely difficult for him to take over a place among the many experts.
After looking around, Zhong Ming felt a little depressed, it seemed like he would not be able to enter the top ten this time. Forget it, do your best, Zhong Ming calmed down and took out his True Essence fire, beginning to refine pills.
Actually, when Zhong Ming was looking at someone else, they were also secretly looking at Zhong Ming. When they saw that he was using ordinary fire elemental energy, they were secretly pleased with themselves, it seemed that this participant was not competitive at all, and was not something to be afraid of.
After learning that he was participating in the competition in place of the 'Void Sect', everyone wanted to take him in as a disciple. After all, if a rogue cultivator could reach such a level without the support of a sect, he was a genius and would have more space to develop in the future.
At this time, the judges also saw that Zhong Ming did not even have a basic fire source, he was only using his ordinary fire of true essence to refine pills, they had already lost interest in him, and turned to look at the others who were refining pills.
After all, without a unique fire source, refining high quality pills was extremely difficult, let alone refining top-grade pills. Hence, these people were disappointed in Zhong Ming.
The fire source used by these participants was usually passed down from an immortal sect or aristocratic family. Using these fire source to refine pills was twice the result with half the effort, but Zhong Ming did not dare to use the fire source, so he could only use ordinary fire elemental energy. Furthermore, the Pill Furnace s were all given to him by the judges, so he could not use his own fire source.
Everyone started to get busy, and started to operate according to their original pill formulas.
And Zhong Ming, in the case that he was unable to use both of his things, would not hold back anymore, otherwise he would not be able to get a placing.
Zhong Ming also wanted to try and concoct his own pill formulas. Although it was possible theoretically, it was the first time he tried it, and if he succeeded, he believed that he would definitely be able to enter the top ten, thus he divided the ingredients into six parts according to his own pill formulas, and divided them into three parts according to the order of the ingredients, and threw them into the Pill Furnace s, then wrapped them up with his own True Origin fire and refined the ingredients into six parts.
Zhong Ming did not use his external fire source, so the refining time was much slower than the special fire. But Zhong Ming's speed of pulling out the pellets was extremely fast, and not many people could reach such a stage, so he used the third form of the Illusory Shadows Nine Transformations to split the Pill Furnace s into six portions. The reason why Zhong Ming did not split the ingredients into nine portions was because he was afraid that he would not be able to control his own Spiritual Sense s strength well.
Zhong Ming did not have the mind to see others refine pills, so he was unable to find out about their situation.
