Seeing Gu Guanlin leave, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Even the Danwang Temple didn't dare to mess with him. If he was here, they would all be on tenterhooks.
Su Mu's brows gradually furrowed as he looked in the direction of the door. It seemed that Gu Guanlin would not let him go easily and would definitely search for him all over the city. If he could not be found, his identity would be exposed immediately.
"You have to pass the selection quickly." He turned to look at Deacon Shan, wanting the selection to start and end quickly.
"Deacon Shan, can the selection begin now?" An alchemist asked Deacon Xiang Shan. Now that Gu Guanlin has left, shouldn't we waste any more time?
"The selection begins!" Deacon Shan nodded, raised his hand and led everyone away.
Xu Liming was lying on the ground like a dead dog at this moment, and no one cared about his life or death.
"I want to participate in the selection, I want to participate in the elixir discussion conference, and I want to become famous!" After a while, Xu Liming gritted his broken teeth, stood up unsteadily, took the elixir and forced himself to follow.
He couldn't understand that Su Mu could bully him, and everyone related to Su Mu also bullied him, but he would use this opportunity to announce to the world that he, Xu Liming, was the unique alchemy genius!
Su Mu was nothing in front of him!
Su Mu and the others followed Deacon Shan to the back of the palace. What they saw were rows of open-air compartments. In each compartment was an alchemy cauldron. There was a fire vent below the alchemy cauldron and three jade boxes beside it.
"Before we begin, I would like to remind everyone that those over forty must leave voluntarily, otherwise they will be responsible for the consequences!" Deacon Shan turned around and scanned the crowd with a cold face. The age limit for participating in the Alchemy Conference is forty.
If anyone under the age of 16 dares to report their age, the consequences will be very serious!
None of the alchemists left. They all knew the rules of the Alchemy Conference, and no one would risk it by lying about their age.
Seeing that no one was leaving, Deacon Shan continued: "The selection project this time is not for alchemy, but for refining golden leaves!"
Golden leaves!?
When all the alchemists heard this, they all exclaimed. Golden wood leaf is a medicinal material with low medicinal value, but this medicinal material is extremely difficult to refine. Just refining it is more difficult than refining elixirs!
If you want to extract the Golden Wood Leaves, you need at least level 5 alchemy skills to do it!
Moreover, ordinary fifth-level alchemists are still unable to refine golden wood leaves to a very high purity.
"The refining time is one hour, and the refining standard is three centimeters!"
Three centimeters!
When the alchemists heard the selection criteria, their eyes widened and they exclaimed again.
"Three centimeters of purity is too high!"
"It is already quite good for a fifth-grade alchemist to be able to control the impurities to just one point, but to refine it within an hour is too harsh!"
"Who came up with this? They are clearly trying to make things difficult for others!"
The purity of medicinal materials is divided into ten points, and one point is ten centimeters. The purity of impurities is calculated backwards. The three centimeters mentioned by Deacon Shan refer to the impurity content.
In other words, if you want to pass the selection, you must refine the difficult-to-refine golden wood leaves to a purity of nine to seven cents within an hour!
"You have half an hour to prepare. If you don't want to participate, you can leave now!" Deacon Shan didn't care so much and said with an iron face.
With a glance, everyone's complaints were reduced a lot. No one left. At most, they only dared to continue complaining in their hearts.
"Assessment rules, only the use of earth core fire is allowed, the alchemy cauldron is not allowed to be replaced, and other materials are not allowed to speed up the refining of golden wood leaves!" Deacon Shan shouted coldly, these rules are only for selecting the alchemists with the highest level and the most stable skills.
!
Whether it is the alchemy cauldron, beast fire, or other auxiliary materials, they will inflate the alchemy skills. Only by eliminating these things can the true level of an alchemist be revealed!
"It's fair and subtle." Su Mu figured out the purpose of Danwang Temple's doing this, so he walked down and picked a cubicle at random.
No matter how unhappy the other alchemists felt, they had no choice but to choose a compartment.
Su Mu stood in the cubicle and opened the jade box, checked the golden wood leaves, and waited for the selection to start if there were no problems.
"Huh?" Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure entering the cubicle next to him. He raised his eyebrows slightly and took a step back to look. He saw Xu Liming wiping the blood on his face and secretly wiping tears while looking at the broken teeth in his hand.
From the time he entered King Dan City to now, he has not had many good days. The people who bullied him came one after another, and his face was constantly ruined. How could he, who had always been pampered and privileged, bear this grievance.
I thought that when he was in the Sunset Sect, whoever dared to be disrespectful to him, whoever was not submissive in front of him, even the elders would only hold him in the palm of their hand, but when he arrived at Danwang City, everything changed.
Su Mu curled his lips when he saw this. How unbecoming a grown man was, crying and moaning.
"What are you looking at!" When Xu Liming saw someone looking at him, he hurriedly covered up the action of wiping his tears and shouted angrily.
Su Mu did not go back to the cubicle. Instead, he walked to Xu Liming's cubicle and looked at him coldly. He hadn't settled the accounts of what happened in the hall just now!
"What do you want to do?" Xu Liming raised his eyebrows, but he still wanted to attack him here!
"You seemed to be crying just now?"
"Which eye of yours saw it? If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for being rude!" Xu Liming's eyes showed panic and he shouted angrily to cover it up.
Su Mu sneered and said disdainfully: "A grown man can just cry, but if he cries so quietly, who can hear him?"
Xu Liming stared, what do you mean?
The next moment, he saw Su Mu raise his hand, and his expression suddenly changed.
"You, what do you want to do!"
"Let you cry louder!"
"boom!"
Xu Liming raised his right hand to block the attack and raised his lips. Do you really think he can bully anyone?
"Snapped!"
But the severe pain on the left side of his face made him momentarily confused.
He took a step back, covering the left side of his face, looking at Su Mu with his mouth open, and the next moment he became furious!
He even bullied him for not having a left hand!
Bully him into a cripple!
Is there any humanity left?
"You're going too far!"
"Snapped!"
He received a slap on the right side of his face, which stunned Xu Liming again. He even bullied him into not having his right hand free!
"Boy, you are looking for death!"
"Snapped!"
"Do you know where this place is!"
"Snapped!"
"Pop!"
After a few slaps, Xu Liming became completely honest. He covered his face and hid in the corner of the cubicle, tears almost coming out again.
Why does everyone come to bully him!
"Don't, don't fight, I was wrong, I was wrong, why not?" Seeing Su Mu raise his hand again, Xu Liming was trembling in fright, and hurriedly begged for mercy with a grimace on his face.
He really didn't understand where he offended this bastard!
"What's going on!" Deacon Shan heard the commotion and rushed over and shouted coldly.
Seeing Deacon Shan, Xu Liming seemed to have seen a savior. He rushed over and pointed at Su Mu and said angrily: "Deacon Shan, he beats people. He dared to slap me several times during the selection!"
Deacon Shan's face darkened and he stared at Su Mu coldly. If he dared to cause trouble and hit someone during the selection, he was not taking him seriously!
"Deacon Shan, it was me who beat him." Su Mu admitted frankly. Xu Liming was angry and happy when he heard that. He was so angry that Su Mu dared to say it confidently. He was so happy that he admitted the matter. Deacon Shan would definitely not forgive him lightly.
!
"But I beat him because he was so disgusting that he could betray even the disciples of the sect, which is a shame to the alchemy world!"
"This kind of person should not even be allowed to participate in the selection!"
"Yes, Deacon Shan, he is right!" The movement here attracted many people. When the alchemists who came to watch the show heard Su Mu's words, they all raised their hands and feet in agreement.
"This kind of person is simply a disgrace to us alchemists, he should be beaten!"
"The beatings he received were minor. He should be pulled out and chopped in half!"
Hearing those people's words becoming more and more cruel, Xu Liming couldn't help but tremble. He looked at Deacon Shan in fear and asked for help. Don't listen to those people.
