Chapter 50: Alchemist Qualification Examination (Part 2)
In the afternoon, at the gate of the Elixir Research Center, many candidates gathered here to check their grades.
Shiran was about to squeeze into the crowd when he heard someone calling him, and turned his head and saw Ye Hong.
"Mr. Shi, here." Ye Hong waved to Shi Nan.
Heather withdrew from the crowd and walked towards Ye Hong.
"Mr. Shi, you are the only one with full marks in the written test and ranked first." Ye Hong looked excited and hugged Shinan's neck.
"Are you really active? You have been waiting for the results here?" He pushed Ye Hong's arm away with a natural expression.
"It is a blessing to be able to serve Mr. Shi." Ye Hong seemed very modest, and there was no hypocrisy in his expression.
At the same time, four or five staff members took cordons and circled a large piece of open space in front of the door of the Elixir Research Center.
After the cordon was set up, several staff members walked out and drove them out of the cordon. Then these staff members stood around the cordon to prevent anyone from crossing.
"All candidates should pay attention. I have my name. Please get the admission ticket and gather here!" The woman in yellow shouted in the morning with a loudspeaker, pointing to the open space where the cordon was coiled with her other hand.
The woman in yellow looked at her watch, picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, "Heather!"
"Mr. Ye, I'll go there first, and I'll talk about it later." Heather, attracted by the shouts of the woman in yellow, walked towards the candidates who were queuing up.
Ye Hong made a cheerful gesture and watched Shiran leave.
Heather walked into the cordon when he saw Heather walking in. The woman in yellow saw Heather walking in. The expression on her face changed from smiling to solidification, then to surprise, and finally turned back to smiling. Her expression was extremely wonderful.
"Well... you stand here." Although the woman in yellow couldn't believe it, she could only continue working, pointing to the closest position to the gate of the Elixir Research Center, let Heather stand there.
"Zhong Siqi, stand beside him." The woman in yellow asked a girl who had just come in to stand beside Heather.
"Lu Xiucheng"
...
"The rest of the candidates who have not called their names can leave. I hope you will continue to work hard next time!" The woman in yellow said to the candidates outside the cordon after calling the last person's name.
After a while, under the command of the woman in yellow, the candidates were divided into seven rows. Except for the last row, there were only 10 people, each row was fifteen. After lined up, there were exactly 100 candidates in front of the Elixir Research Center.
"Congratulations to you, for passing the test scores. Next, we will conduct the actual elixir refining operation assessment. Later, we will enter according to the current queue and go directly to the second floor. There are 35 alchemy rooms on the second floor. Therefore, the first 35 alchemy rooms are given priority for the test, and each alchemy room has a tutor. After you enter, you can choose a elixir recipe for refining according to your ability. After you choose the elixir recipe, you will hand it over to the tutor. When the candidates who enter face will have no chance to choose the elixir recipe that has been selected. There are still fifteen minutes left, so if you have any questions, you can raise your hand." The woman in yellow said while holding the loudspeaker, staring at the 100 candidates under the steps.
As soon as he finished speaking, a candidate standing in the last row raised one hand, and the woman in yellow pointed at him and said, "You said."
"How many elixir recipes are there in total?" asked the candidate who raised his hand.
"A elixir room has 10 pill recipes. Do you have any problems?" The woman in yellow pointed at another candidate who raised her hand.
The examinee put down his raised hands and said, "Is the pill recipe in every alchemy room the same?"
"The 10 pill recipes are different, but different pill refining rooms have these 10 pill recipes."
At this time, Shinan raised his hand and asked, "Can we refine elixirs other than the elixir recipes provided? For example, the elixir recipe you provide is too low, so I want to get a better ranking."
"As long as you have finished refining these 10 pill recipes within the specified half an hour, you have extra time to refine other types of pills you want to refine. If you have refined 10 pill recipes, candidates who enter later can directly use their own pill recipes as long as the quality meets the requirements." The woman in yellow explained in detail.
At this moment, the ringtone rang, and the woman in yellow looked at the time again and said, "Okay, let's enter one by one."
Heather walked in first and came to the second floor. Heather showed his admission ticket to a staff member. After careful verification, the other party said, "Go in, the elixir room No. 1 inside."
Heather took back his admission ticket and went straight to the alchemy room No. 1. There was a man in his forties. He was wearing a blue Zhendan University standard robe and a medal hung on his chest. There were three purple gems on the medal.
"Is Heather so? Do you understand the rules?" This person took the Heather's admission ticket and had a lot of things up and down.
"Yes! I understand almost the same thing." Heather nodded!
"Okay, then let's start!" The blue robe mentor seemed to have some thoughts about Heather. He wanted to see if this young man was really capable and whether he deserved to be the first place in the written test.
Shiran looked at the 10 pill recipes on the table. He knew a certain understanding of these pill recipes, but 8 of them were first-level pill recipes, and the other two were just second-level pill recipes. He picked up all 10 pill recipes and quickly searched for the medicinal materials he needed on the herb stand beside him.
"The quality of the elixir should be above the medium grade! You can only use the alchemy furnace and medicinal materials in this alchemy room!" The blue robe instructor reminded, then sat back to the desk near the door and ignored the heather.
Shinan looked at the very ordinary alchemy furnace in front of him. It was huge and bulky, more than ten times larger than his Danxin Cauldron. There was a lighter on the side!
The corners of his mouth almost twitched, but he still ignited the alchemy furnace according to the process!
The flames burned, and Shiranu threw the medicinal materials needed for the first elixir recipe into the medicine cauldron according to the steps of "Hundred Alchemy Exercise". The medicinal materials of Niuhuang Pills are very simple. If they follow the dosage in the elixir recipe, they will definitely fry the stove.
The whole process took only two minutes, and the medicine cauldron buzzed! A round and three-striped pill fell out from the small tube next to the huge alchemy furnace. Heather casually picked up the bottle containing the pills on the side, put the refined pills aside, opened the center cover of the alchemy furnace, and added the medicinal materials needed for the second pill recipe.
In this way, eight first-level pills have been refined, and heather is neatly placed on the table, and under the pill bottle is the corresponding pill recipe.
Half of the time it took to refine eight first-level pills. In fact, the two second-level pills are very familiar with, such as the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Spirit Gathering Pill. After another 5 minutes, the two pills were also placed on the table by the heather.
The blue robe tutor got up and walked to the table where the pills were placed, with a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes! Then there was a huge surprise!
"Not bad! Not bad! All eight pills are the best!" The blue robe instructor was excited and even his voice was a little exaggerated.
Shiran ignored the blue robe tutor and continued to look for the medicinal materials he needed.
The blue-robed mentor found that Heather ignored him, and then turned his head and saw Heather's obviously joking face. The blue-robed mentor twitched his eyebrows. He couldn't tell that the boy was doing it on purpose.
Seeing Heather closing his eyes and skillfully purifying the medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace, the blue robe tutor couldn't help but sigh: "This little guy is really good... Now I'm becoming more and more curious. Who can teach such an outstanding student?"
Shi Nan didn't know what the blue robe tutor was thinking. He slowly opened his eyes, rubbed his hands gently, put his palm against the fire mouth of the medicine cauldron, and his mind slowly sank into his body, carefully pouring the spiritual power into the alchemy furnace.
When the spiritual power completely wrapped the medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace, there was a slight "bang" sound, and the flames in the alchemy furnace rose more and more violently.
As the flame temperature continued to rise, drops of green liquid began to penetrate the branches and leaves of a medicinal material. Heather quickly controlled his spiritual power to wrap the liquid. As the liquid penetrated more and more, its branches and leaves were also shrinking rapidly. After the last drop of green liquid in the medicinal material was squeezed out, Heather pulled the spiritual power away from the body of the medicinal material, and the already yellow medicinal material instantly turned into ashes and fell into the bottom of the alchemy furnace.
As more and more medicinal materials are being refined, more and more liquids are wrapped in heather spiritual power, and these liquids are colorful. In the end, only liquids of various colors are left in the alchemy furnace, and liquids of various colors are floating in the heather spiritual power.
The heather controls the liquids to merge with each other, and then becomes a black paste. The heather controls the flames to continuously smoke the black paste. As time goes by, the black paste begins to solidify gradually. Its slowly rolls in the flames, and the prototype of a black elixir gradually appears in the alchemy furnace.
The prototype of the elixir at this time was covered with potholes on the surface, but the overall shape could be seen as a ball.
At this time, heather threw in a medicinal material again. As the medicinal material was extracted by the essence, a fragrance floated out of the alchemy furnace. The essence of this medicinal material was drops of milky white liquid.
Control these milky white liquids to cover the prototype of the pill, and then slowly control the prototype of the pill to rotate. At the same time, heather also hurriedly controlled the temperature of the flame to keep it to a point where it is neither hot nor cold, and slowly smoked the pill.
The last step was to condense the pill. After the pill absorbed milky white liquid, the surface began to gradually become smoother, and the overall color had turned white. The flames originally under the control of the heather rushed over. The violent temperature wrapped the pill in it, and the pill was instantly burned red.
Heather immediately controlled the flame to the lowest level. At this time, as the flame became smaller, a pill body was green and surrounded by three brown stripes, and slid out from the pipe beside it was wrapped in heather's spiritual power.
Looking at the pill, Shinan couldn't help but grin and put it in the pill bottle.
This pill is the third-level top-grade poison-relieving pill. Heather has tried it several times, but he has not been able to achieve the best quality before, so it is best to be the best one at a time. It happened that the materials for the assessment were medicinal materials for the poison-relieving pill, so Heather also refined it with the mentality of trying it out.
"This little guy...has really successful? He is eighteen years old! The third-level top-grade pill!" The blue-robed mentor snatched the pill from Shinan's hand and looked carefully.
The blue robe tutor spread his hands and smiled and said, "It seems that our Chinese alchemy industry is finally about to usher in a revival..."
