Godly Martial Alchemy Emperor

The grand gathering of Qin Country that happened every three years was about to begin.    

The person who had called this convention was Ying Kuo's elder brother, the first prince of Qin Country, Ying Zheng.    

Within the Qin Country, at least the crown prince had not yet been established, so when Emperor Qin didn't step in, he was the first son to preside over all sorts of national affairs.    

Under the attentive gaze of the crowd, Ying Zheng walked up and cupped his hands towards the audience in the plaza and the people in the Guest Seat, and laughed: "Today is my General Meeting of Alchemists, which occurs once every three years. We welcome all of you guests to come and support us, and witness the growth of my Qin Country alchemist during these three years. I won't waste any more time on superfluous words. Let's get down to business! "    

As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Zheng's gaze fell on Minister Lin Yun. The latter nodded respectfully and walked to the center of the square and took out a bamboo tube.    

There is a total of two hundred alchemists in the forces that have signed up for the entire Grand Competition. There are ten groups for the preliminary competition, twenty alchemists in each group.    

Hearing Lin Yun, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, two hundred alchemists came out and each of them took a bamboo stick from the bamboo tube in Lin Yun's hand.    

"All of the bamboo sticks, from the first lot to the twentieth, begin the competition!" Seeing that everyone had finished drawing lots, Lin Yun pointed at the wide open ground as he smiled and said.    

Wang Yu looked at the bamboo stick in his hand. On it was a red marker with the word "Six" written on it. He smiled as he chased after Elder Xu, quietly waiting for the sixth match.    

Other than him, there was Soong Laosan's second round, Wu Yunniang's third round, Zhou Dinghai's fourth round, Qiu Ling's fifth round, and his sixth round.    

My god, the five of them fought side by side for five consecutive rounds.    

Was it a coincidence? Or did someone do it on purpose?    

Wang Yu glanced at Ying Kuo, who was on the stage. Ying Kuo seemed to have sensed something and looked back at him. Both of them could clearly feel the killing intent in each other's eyes.    

Sensing the killing intent in Wang Yu's eyes, Ying Kuo was slightly stunned and almost thought that he saw wrongly.    

He was a prince after all, and no one had ever revealed their killing intent to him.    

He had directly and indirectly caused the death of far too many people. Even if those people knew that it was him who did it, they would only feel resentful towards him and would not dare to brazenly reveal their killing intent to him.    

Wang Yu could be considered to have set a precedent. At the same time, it also increased Ying Kuo's murderous intent towards Wang Yu.    

"Adept, how's the arrangement?" Ying Kuo whispered as he called Daoist Master Yuan Feng to his side.    

Hearing this, Daoist Master Yuan Feng laughed, and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. What needs to be arranged has already been arranged. I guarantee that Wang Yu will die an unknown death within the General Meeting of Alchemists."    

Ying Kuo laughed when he heard this: "First, get rid of the others in the Tiancheng College and give Liu Tie a huge amount of pressure. After he gets there, he will definitely hit and die in the Alchemist arena. That way, even if Xu Ruiann is an alchemist in the Pill Pavilion, he will have no place to lose his temper."    

The Pharmacist suddenly died in the tournament – a perfect way to die.    

On one side, Ying Kuo was discussing how to deal with Wang Yu, while on the other side, Vice Minister of Rites, Lin Yun also announced, "In the first round, everyone has a first tier pill recipe, but it's not complete. All the alchemists will need to give the completed pill according to the incomplete pill recipe, three chances to each person, and if they fail three times, they will automatically leave."    

"In addition, there is an enormous hourglass at the center of the square. When the hourglass is complete, it will take an hour, which is also the time limit. Anyone who exceeds the time limit and fails to successfully create the hourglass will similarly be eliminated."    

"In the end, as I've mentioned before, there are twenty alchemists in each group, ten groups to advance, and the ten alchemists that finish refining the pill the fastest to advance, the rest to be eliminated. In other words, if you are the eleventh person to succeed, then even if you are within three chances and have a limited time, you will still be eliminated. "    

"Everyone, do you understand?" Lin Yun said with a faint smile.    

"Understood!" The two hundred alchemists below spoke in unison. Their voices were like a bolt of dry heavenly thunder that fell from the clear sky.    

It was an earth-shattering scene!    

"If that's the case, I shall announce the General Meeting of Alchemists on behalf of the Qin Country court, starting now."    

Lin Yun was full of enthusiasm. He pointed to the center of the square and said, "The twenty alchemists who drew the first bamboo stick, please come forward!"    

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, twenty young alchemists walked out.    

They had proud expressions and full of confidence. They walked straight to the center of the square and arrived at the designated location.    

Beside them, there was a table. On the table, there were over ten sets of medicinal herbs and a piece of Xuan paper.    

On the xuan paper were the pill formulas. On each pill formula, there was a lack of a single set of medicinal herbs. Other than that, there were only a few types of medicinal herbs, and they didn't say how to extract them or how to fuse them with other medicinal herbs.    

He needed the alchemist to make up the missing ingredients according to the medicinal properties of the ingredients.    

At the same time, he had to eliminate all knowledge and knowledge from his mind. Once he found out about the herbs, he had to extract and fuse with other spiritual herbs to form the elixir.    

In addition to seeing the alchemist's skill in alchemy, the whole process was a test of the alchemist's theoretical knowledge.    

If they complemented each other on the Dao of alchemy, then they would be able to travel much further down the Dao of alchemy.    

In this first stage, theoretical knowledge far exceeded actual practice.    

Many alchemists usually studied the complete pill formula, and they would spend more time practicing than studying theories.    

In this way, the first stage would be dangerous for such people.    

The 20 young alchemists that entered the arena were all elites of various places, and there was no lack of Grade Two Alchemists amongst them. Only a few of them were still stuck at the Grade One Alchemist stage.    

However, even these Grade One Alchemists were top Grade One Alchemists.    

An incomplete grade-1 pill formula was a test for the preliminaries. It neither surpassed the boundaries nor ensured the difficulty of the first round. Those who passed the selection or failed would have nothing to say.    

The alchemist who was waiting outside the arena and the guests from all around saw the different expressions on everyone's faces.    

"As expected of the General Meeting of Alchemists, which occurs once every three years, as expected, it is not simple."    

Wang Yu said in his heart. He took a glance at all the alchemists on the stage. With his level of knowledge, he could tell with one glance what the pill formulas were for the twenty alchemists.    

Looking at the various refining methods of the twenty alchemists, he lacked interest towards the first round's people.    

In the first group, not many people were able to catch his eyes.    

Although these people were all geniuses from various places and were respected, they were still nothing to him.    

Before the hourglass was completely emptied, ten alchemists successfully refined the finished product and advanced in the preliminary competition. As for the remaining ten, they could only regretfully leave.    

Although it was a bit cruel, this was the rule.
