Leveling System of Acquiring Skill From Books

Everyone was stunned.    

A large furnace could refine pills faster, but a small furnace could refine pills more exquisitely.    

The smaller the Pill Furnace, the more difficult it was to refine pills.    

Luo Qiu's assessment was intentionally increasing the difficulty.    

Which of these two geniuses would win?    

Qin Mao was indifferent. As a capable alchemist, any Pill Furnace was a small matter to him.    

He said faintly, "Examiner Luo, if I'm not mistaken, this Pill Furnace should belong to the category of teapots. It should be 1.3 inches tall and 1.2 inches wide. It was made from purple copper and can be refined into a grade four medicinal pill at most. It can be considered a 2-star Alchemist Initiation pill. "    

A hint of appreciation flashed across Luo Qiu's eyes.    

"That's right, you are right. The staff of City Lord's Mansion must be at the 2-star Alchemist. In order to take care of those alchemists who don't have any stars, I used this small furnace."    

"I don't have any problem with that. You can ask Brother Ye for his opinion."    

Ye Chen spread his hands, but he was also puzzled, because he had just thought of a very extreme method.    

If he had to use the small furnace in front of him, then the method he had thought of would lose its meaning.    

He asked, "I have no objections, but according to the rules, isn't it fine as long as the pill is refined? We have to use the Pill Furnace you specified? "    

"I am only providing you with a platform. However, I will judge based on your combined techniques. As for who is more skilled, using the designated Pill Furnace will give you additional points. "    

"That's good."    

Hearing this, the corner of Qin Mao's mouth raised into a disdainful smile.    

He even called himself an alchemist. He couldn't even control a small cauldron.    

At this point, the competition had lost all meaning.    

"Now, I will explain the rules of the competition. The two of you need to complete the concoction within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. You only need to use three sets of herbs. In other words, if the two of you have yet to complete the concoction three times, you will automatically lose the qualification to participate in the competition."    

Qin Mao said faintly, "Elder Luo, what kind of medicinal pill do we need to refine?"    

"Second Grade medicinal pill, Heart Cleansing Pill."    

Hearing the name of the medicinal pill, everyone discussed animatedly.    

"It's actually a Heart Cleansing Pill. Although this pill is within the category of a Second Grade Pill, the difficulty of refining it is not weaker than a Third Grade Pill. To be able to form a Heart Cleansing Pill within three tries is already commendable."    

"That's right. The difficulty of this pill lies in the extremely harsh environment within the furnace. Only when all the conditions are right can it be perfectly formed."    

"But look at Qin Mao. He doesn't take this matter seriously at all. He still looks like he's completely in control of it. On the other hand, Ye Chen seems to be a little careless. He feels like he's about to give up on the competition. "    

"It can't be. He displayed such great talent in the first stage, but he revealed his fear in the second stage?"    

" Let's wait and see. "    

...    

Everyone felt that this competition was getting more and more interesting.    

No one had expected Luo Qiu to produce such a tricky pill for them to refine.    

After distributing the medicinal ingredients, it was about to begin.    

Qin Mao said again, "Elder Luo, these three sets of medicinal ingredients are a little too much. I wonder if I can make you take back one set?"    

"What?"    

"He automatically gave up a chance. "    

"Is Qin Mao really that confident?"    

What he did was really arrogant.    

Even Elder Luo didn't expect this.    

But he still nodded his head and smiled, "It's a good thing that you are so confident. It also indirectly proves your success rate. I will give you an additional point for consideration."    

"Alright, then now..."    

Elder Luo had not finished speaking.    

Ye Chen interrupted him, "Elder Luo, I have something to say too."    

Qin Mao was stunned for a moment, then he asked, "Brother Ye, are you also going to give up a chance?"    

Ye Chen could still do that?    

Everyone glanced at each other.    

The first person to do such a thing was stunning, but the second person to imitate it was just a joke.    

However, Ye Chen shook his head silently. "No, I didn't know that I could give up on herbs. Now that I know, I naturally don't need that much. Just leave one for me. It won't be useful if there are too many. "    

Everyone was instantly dumbstruck.    

Ye Chen actually gave up two chances?    

In other words, Ye Chen must have a 100% effectiveness pill in order to complete the competition.    

But this time, no one praised Ye Chen.    

Everyone's eyes were filled with disdain.    

Perhaps Ye Chen did this because Qin Mao had added points.    

However, Ye Chen did not think about it. Wouldn't this be too risky?    

Ye Chen could totally make up for the loss of points by producing better quality pills. Why did he have to be so extreme?    

"Ye Chen, are you crazy!? I think you are just messing with me. With your attitude, you don't want to enter the City Lord's Mansion at all."    

Meryl felt that her mood today was just like a roller coaster.    

From the sky to the ground, and from the ground to the sky, the cycle repeated over and over again.    

If not for Meryl's ability to resist pressure, she would have been angered by Ye Chen to the point of vomiting blood.    

"Little apprentice alchemist, don't be noisy!"    

Ye Chen was speechless.    

He cursed in his heart, "You are the apprentice alchemist!"    

Meryl did not dare to go against Ye Chen. Fortunately, she still had the chance to enter the City Lord's Mansion.    

If Meryl fell out with Ye Chen, she would lose the last chance.    

Meryl thought in her heart, at most, she would be the one controlling the Heart Cleansing Pill. With her strength, there was still a glimmer of hope for her to refine the Heart Cleansing Pill.    

Elder Luo smiled in surprise, "Ye Chen, there is no need to be so competitive. I can give you a chance to take back your words."    

"If I take back my words, I will lose face. I will not take back my words."    

Ye Chen waved his hand. He did not mind.    

"Alright, then remove two sets of herbs and record an additional point for you."    

Elder Luo was afraid that his words would be interrupted again, so he asked, "Do the two of you have anything else you want to say?"    

"No."    

Meryl and Ye Chen shook their heads silently.    

"Okay, then I announce that the competition will begin now! Burn the incense!"    

A delicate fragrance was lit up, emitting a lingering fragrance.    

Ye Chen was not in a hurry. Instead, he looked at Qin Mao with interest.    

Every step of Qin Mao's pill refinement was done in an orderly manner. He gently placed the medicinal herbs, afraid that he would damage the ingredients of the medicinal herbs.    

Then, he carefully burned the furnace, trying his best to achieve the best temperature effect.    

Next, he placed the herbs into the Pill Furnace and refined them one by one, using their essence to remove the impurities.    

"En, not bad, not bad! Watching Qin Mao refine pills is like a kind of enjoyment, gentle and gentle, leisurely and comfortable." Elder Luo couldn't help but praise.    

"That's right, not bad indeed. Qin Mao is proficient in herbs and pharmacology, and his skill in alchemy is so adept. He is indeed worthy of being called a high-level teacher. He is a great talent." Another examiner said.    

"But why hasn't Ye Chen started yet?"    

Elder Luo looked over and had the same thought.    

Meryl was very anxious at the side, but Ye Chen was very calm.    

Ye Chen sat more steadily than the examiners, and he kept staring at Qin Mao concocting pills.    

Could it be that Ye Chen did not know how to refine Heart Cleansing Pill?    

Instead, he was learning how to refine the Heart Cleansing Pill?    

Luo Qiu could not help asking, "Ye Chen, why haven't you started refining Heart Cleansing Pill yet?"    

"I'll let Qin Mao start for half an incense stick of time. I forgot to tell you guys just now."    

At that time, he would still want to rely on the unorthodox ways.
