My game announcement panel is Tiandao?

Night was falling and the city lights were coming on.

Because of the upcoming alchemy master gathering, Lingzhi County is at least ten times more lively than usual.

Half of the alchemists in Nanming Prefecture gathered here.

Other than that.

And then there are those alchemy geniuses who are preparing to participate in the "Three Examinations of Alchemists" this year.

Alchemists are not a group that remains stagnant.

in contrast.

They were all very enthusiastic about discussing their latest discoveries with each other.

For example, pharmacology, material combination, and changes in the pills at different temperatures, etc.

If one can propose a theory or technique that is accepted by most people, then one is even more likely to gain the approval of a master.

Almost all alchemists have this expectation.

Today, Zhou Yu and Li Ruyi went to the bustling market together.

But given Zhou Yuzhi's status, the places he goes to are certainly not ordinary places.

Li Ruyi followed behind Zhou Yu, silently listening to the alchemy masters discuss their theories, and gained a great deal from this experience.

"I'm even more confident about tomorrow's 'Three Tests for Alchemists'."

In this way...

The chances of success for me are over 90%.

Thinking of this, Li Ruyi couldn't help but smile slightly.

Bathed in the glow of the lanterns, it was breathtakingly beautiful.

Even passersby were stunned for a moment.

As Zhou Yu stepped into the Almond Hall, Li Ruyi, who had been somewhat distracted, was suddenly startled awake by Zhou Yu's slightly angry voice:

Why are you here all by yourself?

"Where is Cheng Ye?"

Although the alchemy room was arranged and designed by him, it would completely seal the furnace when the temperature of the fire was too high, allowing the flames to extinguish themselves.

Serious accidents such as oven explosions will not occur.

but.

Alchemy is still risky; after all, it's like "playing with fire."

If you're not careful, you can easily hurt yourself.

not to mention.

He had Cheng Ye watch as Xiao Sun refined pills.

"what?"

"Master Zhou?"

Xiao Sun looked up at Zhou Yu with a somewhat blank expression.

Now.

Zhou Yu started to panic.

Could something have already happened?

"Master Zhou."

Just as Zhou Yu was becoming increasingly anxious, Cheng Ye, who had bathed and changed his clothes, walked into the clinic:

"I was watching Brother Sun refine pills in the alchemy room, and I smelled of medicinal herbs and smoke on myself, so I took a bath first."

A faint, clean scent of soapberry wafted from Cheng Ye's place.

This also relieved Zhou Yu.

Perhaps because he was anxious, his attention was entirely focused on Cheng Ye.

Zhou Yu did not notice the surprise deep in Xiao Sun's eyes.

"I see."

Zhou Yu shook his head, thinking to himself that he was becoming more and more timid as he got older, and that all his former composure had disappeared.

"tomorrow."

"Miss Li is about to participate in the 'Three Examinations for Alchemists.' If you two are interested, you can come and watch."

"No matter how much you understand, it will be enough to benefit you greatly."

"If I have the opportunity to participate in the 'Three Examinations for Alchemists' in the future, I will have a better understanding of the situation."

As soon as Zhou Yu finished speaking, Xiao Sun nodded vigorously with shining eyes!

only.

Cheng Ye's next words surprised everyone:

"I learned a lot from watching Brother Sun refine pills today."

"But it's also quite mentally taxing, I don't know if I'll be able to get up early tomorrow."

"so."

"There's no way to witness Miss Li display her extraordinary prowess and amaze everyone in the 'Three Tests of Alchemy'."

"Miss Li, Master Zhou, I apologize in advance."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu was about to offer further advice.

Li Ruyi, standing behind him, spoke first:

"Master Zhou Dan".

"Since Officer Cheng says so, you don't need to force yourself."

All the words I wanted to say eventually boiled down to a sigh.

"Alright."

"Miss Li."

"You should get some rest early tonight."

After the two turned and walked into the backyard, Xiao Sun couldn't help but ask in a low voice:

"Officer Cheng?"

"What do you mean by this?"

He is clearly an unparalleled genius in alchemy, so why does he conceal his brilliance?

"Brother Sun."

"Master Zhou is one of the examiners for this year's 'Three Examinations for Alchemists'."

"Miss Li also has to participate in the 'Three Examinations for Alchemists' tomorrow, why make them lose sleep tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Sun pondered for a moment and also felt that it made a lot of sense.

"Moreover."

"I was just lucky the first time I tried to refine pills."

"The success rate of pill formation was not high in the subsequent attempts."

Xiao Sun turned his head, looking puzzled, and said:

"what?"

"is that so?"

of course not.

Cheng answered truthfully in his heart.

With the buff, my progress is incredibly fast!

Refining heat-clearing pills is a piece of cake for them.

Even with the more difficult-to-make Detoxification Pill, Jin Cheng can control the good product rate to around 50%, and the pill-making rate is as high as 85%.

After an afternoon of refining.

now.

Cheng Ye already had a full eighteen detoxification pills in his hand.

"Nine of them, if taken as one pill, can completely remove the erysipelas accumulated on that day."

"The remaining nine pills need to be taken one in the morning and one at night for the medicine to be fully effective."

"I wonder how long this prequel promotion will last."

"During these remaining two and a half days of buff, I need to start trying to refine some pills that can improve my cultivation."

The problem is...

"I don't have a suitable prescription on hand right now."

Besides the Detoxifying Pill, there was only the Heat-Clearing Pill.

"The pills suitable for my current cultivation level are Peiyuan Pill, Yangqi Pill, and Guqi Powder."

It can be bought with money, but it's very expensive, and Cheng doesn't have the connections yet.

"Then we'll have to exchange them."

"Use the formula for the Detoxifying Pill."

Cheng could ask Zhou Yu directly.

but.

Cheng also felt that doing so was too humiliating for him.

Like a beggar.

"tomorrow."

"Let's talk about it when Master Zhou returns."

……

The next day.

As dawn broke.

After having breakfast, Zhou Yu, Li Ruyi, and Xiao Sun left Xingrentang.

No one came to wake Cheng Ye.

Cheng stood by the window, listening to the lively noise that could be heard even from inside the courtyard.

"The Three Tests for Alchemists"

"The longer the buff lasts, the easier it will be for me to change jobs."

"It would be best if you could pass the assessment."

Cheng had not mentioned to anyone that he was also going to participate in the "Three Examinations of Alchemists".

He is very clear.

If I were to speak out, I would receive a message from Zhou Yu via express mail.

Chen Hai might just rush over from Changning County and try to persuade him, who is now "possessed by evil."

After washing up.

Cheng Ye came to the alchemy room alone.

"Go for it!"

immediately.

Just like yesterday afternoon, Cheng began selecting medicinal herbs, lighting the furnace, and refining the detoxification pills!

at the same time.

The central urban area of ​​Lingzhi County.

The place was bustling with activity, and even the government sent officials and soldiers to maintain order in the surrounding area.

In the very center, a building resembling a martial arts arena was erected.

The renowned alchemy masters, who were famous throughout Nanming Prefecture and even the entire Huazhou, greeted each other with smiles on their faces.

"The Way of Alchemy is flourishing!"

"Looking at the participants in this year's 'Three Examinations for Alchemists,' there are quite a few energetic young people. They are truly formidable!"

Amidst a commotion.

This year happens to coincide with the "Three Examinations of Alchemists" at the Alchemist Grand Gathering, which has officially begun!
