It was still Chen, and the central hall was already crowded with people. Yesterday, everyone already knew that today's comparison is alchemy, which should be much more interesting than calligraphy, and many people have already come out to find a good position, waiting for the start of the competition.

Soon, the people from Vortex Island also arrived at the scene, and Zhuang Lingxiao still walked onto the high platform.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am still presiding over today's competition. At the same time, as the Dan Elder of Vortex Island, I will also be mainly responsible for the evaluation of today's Alchemy Dabi. Zhuang Lingxiao introduced to everyone.

"Without further ado, I will now introduce you to the topic of today's big competition. Zhuang Lingxiao suppressed everyone's applause and talked directly about the content of the competition.

"Today's alchemy is a big comparison, we are not compared to refining pills, we do not distinguish medicinal materials, and we do not test the Danfang to master. ”

Hearing Zhuang Lingxiao's words, Ye Chen's face showed such a look, and he could see from the calligraphy competition that the questions raised by the dealer to recruit relatives were probably not something that normal people could deal with.

I saw Zhuang Lingxiao take out a purple square box, which was small and delicate, without any breath leaking, and looked like a very high-grade pill container.

"The topic of today's alchemy competition is in this purple box. Zhuang Lingxiao turned the purple box around to everyone and said solemnly.

Oh, is it because it's a matter of things? At this point, some people in the crowd began to speculate.

"Look!" With Zhuang Lingxiao's decisive two words, the purple square box was opened with a "click", and there was indeed a pill inside.

Although it is an elixir, if you look closely, there is only half a pill in this box, as if it has been simply divided into two halves by a sharp weapon, and the incision is very smooth.

To say that even if the general pill is stored for a long time, it will have aroma or color, the more high-grade the pill, the more so, at this time, the half pill in the box is lying quietly, without any breath, is it a waste pill?

Just when everyone was puzzled, Zhuang Lingxiao spoke: "This half of the pill is also left by my Zhuang ancestor, but due to incomplete records, I only know that this pill should be a second-grade pill, but I don't know what He Dan is. ”

Hearing Zhuang Lingxiao's introduction, most of them already knew what today's assessment content was.

"In today's competition, this pill will be displayed for half an hour, if anyone can recognize this pill, or can analyze the effective information contained in it, such as medicinal materials, refining techniques, and pill effects, they can get different scores according to the importance of the information. ”

After Zhuang Lingxiao completely introduced the questions and rules of the competition, he held the opened pill in the air for others to inspect.

Seeing this, some confident youths surrounded them one by one and began to observe the hidden information of this half of the pill.

Similar to the calligraphy competition the day before yesterday, Uzumaki Island has set the threshold for the competition very high, and many people have almost no capital to participate, so there are still some people who stand in place, not knowing what to do.

Of course, not all those who don't move are people who don't have strength, such as Ye Chen and Xuchenzi haven't moved a step at the moment, but their souls have already begun to feel this half of the pill in the air.

Half an hour passed quickly, some people who had seen the pill had returned to the place where they were and closed their eyes to meditate, and some people were still next to the pill, but more were people who were at a loss, because today's competition didn't even have the opportunity to try their luck, thinking that the two competitions might still have zero points, and many people's faces could not be hung up.

With a "snap", the purple square box was suddenly closed, and Zhuang Lingxiao could only be heard: "Half an hour has arrived, you sons still have at most half an hour to think, if you have an idea, you can use the spirit to tell the old man the information." ”

As soon as Zhuang Lingxiao's words fell, he saw Hai Wuliang raise his hand, as if he had something to say.

"Hai Gongzi, I don't know what's going on?" Zhuang Lingxiao asked.

"Elder Dan, I have decided to give up this competition. Hai Wuliang spoke in astonishment, and there were incredible inhalations all around.

It's not that Hai Wuliang is incompetent, although he is already a five-grade alchemist, but he hasn't put too much effort into the way of alchemy, and he doesn't have a clue about today's big competition. And he doesn't plan to deceive himself with Meng's, he can only say that he is not good.

Seeing that Hai Wuliang looked serious, Zhuang Lingxiao sighed and said, "It's okay, it's a little more difficult, otherwise I wouldn't have taken it out for the test." Taking a deep breath, Zhuang Lingxiao continued to announce, "Then, the sea is immeasurable, 0 points, you can go down." ”

"Elder Ling Xiao, I've given up too. ”

"Yes, yes, I'm really powerless about this, so I'll forget it. ”

"Me too. ”

When the calligraphy competition was held, Qiu Lang took the lead in abstaining and causing a turmoil, who would have thought that the alchemy competition was also such a scene, and what was even more outrageous was that it was the first person who took the lead in giving up, and it broke through the psychological defense of most people.

All of a sudden, the people on the high platform retreated in an instant, leaving only five people.

Among these five people, two are young people from the main island of Vortex Island, one is the Hong family and the other is the Xu family.

"Very good, Hong Feng recognized a medicinal herb contained in this pill, which was consistent with what the Hidden Cloud Master on Fuyun Island had recognized before, 1 point. ”

"Well, Xu Wentian recognized that there are two medicinal materials in this pill, which are the medicinal materials that Shangyang Zhenren once recognized, 2 points. ”

Soon, the Xu family and the Hong family had already sent news to Zhuang Lingxiao and got the score. It can be found that in fact, the dealer has a certain amount of research on this remnant pill, but it is not comprehensive.

To say, in the case of so many people giving up, it is definitely a good performance for someone to recognize one or two medicinal materials, but these two people are both from Vortex Island, which makes people watching the ceremony can't help but think of it. Obviously, many people think that there is a suspicion of going through the back door, and no one gave the two of them applause, but instead pinned their hopes on the remaining three people on the stage, hoping that they would have a better performance.

At this moment, the remaining three people on the high platform are Ye Chen, Xuchenzi, and Qiu Lang.

Qiu Lang knew that his alchemy level was only seven grades, and he had no hope for the alchemy competition, but today's exam questions had no connection with alchemy, but fell on his strengths.

"Hahahaha, didn't you just recognize one or two medicinal herbs, look at Young Master Ben's. Qiu Lang decided that he was lucky today, and it was time to behave well, and walked towards Zhuang Lingxiao with a laugh.

Qiu Lang reported the drugs he smelled to Zhuang Lingxiao one by one through his soul, but Zhuang Lingxiao, who had no expectations, was more and more surprised the more he listened, he didn't expect that this calligrapher was the first young man to give up had such a ability in pills.

After pondering for a moment, Zhuang Lingxiao said: "Young Master Qiu Lang, I have recognized a total of eight Chinese medicinal materials in this Danzhong, five of which are consistent with the previous research of the Zhuang family, but the other three have yet to be confirmed. In this alchemy competition, Qiu Lang's tentative score is 4 points!"
