Some people just show off, and then deliberately fail the smelting or blow up the furnace to save the remaining materials.
Although it was disgraceful and disrespectful to do so, compared with precious materials, they chose the latter.
However, the main reason is because they have given up hope of competing for rankings.
This competition invites alchemy masters and weapon masters from all over Zhongyue to participate. It can be said that being able to break into the top fifty, or even the top one hundred, is considered a good ranking.
This competition is huge and attracts the attention of all parties. If you can get a good ranking in the competition, you will definitely become famous, and the benefits it brings will definitely not be comparable to the thirty kinds of materials.
So if there is still a chance to impact the rankings, they will definitely not give up.
The reason why they give up and don't even bother to struggle is because they know their own weight very well and know that no miracle will happen if they struggle. Instead of fantasizing about some unrealistic things,
, it’s better to do something real.
If you give up early, you can not only get the materials you picked, but also use the remaining competition time to practice beautifully in the Danxia Fairy Land in Liujiabao for three days.
Why not?
…
Liu Zhihuan calmly finished selecting the materials, went to his examination seat calmly, sat calmly in front of the desk, looked at the elixir and ingredients he had selected, and began to think about it.
It looks like he is thinking, but in reality he is in a daze.
This was a very interesting and challenging game, but he couldn't arouse the slightest interest in it.
In fact, there is still some boredom and resistance in my heart.
There is simply no sense of tension and excitement like the first two games.
He wants to compete fairly with Zhang Xiaozu, Qi Jinyao, and all the contestants, and enjoy the process. Even if his skills are not as good as others and he loses, even though he will be disappointed, he will be convinced that he lost.
But in this last game, he lost the fun of the game because before the start of the main game, Shang Susu taught him a new elixir refining method.
This elixir is called Tianxuan elixir.
It is newly developed by Shang Susu and has not appeared on the market yet.
Its medicinal effect is slightly stronger than Tongxuan Dan, but its refining materials are much cheaper than Tongxuan Dan.
And the difficulty of refining is much lower than that of Tongxuan Pill.
It can be said that once this pill comes out, Tongxuan Pill will soon be eliminated.
For practitioners, this is definitely great news.
It can be said to be of great significance and far-reaching influence. Therefore, as long as Liu Zhihuan refines this Tianxuan Dan, he will definitely get a very high score. As long as no one refines the heaven-defying elixir, the first place must be him.
.
There is actually nothing to say about this. It is natural to compete with the skills taught by Master, and no one can find fault with it.
But in his heart he felt that he had cheated.
Because Tian Xuan Dan was obviously specially prepared for this competition, he felt that Shang Susu helped him participate in this competition.
If other contestants knew about the problem he was struggling with, they would definitely scold him for being so good at taking advantage.
Although Liu Zhihuan felt awkward, bored and even rejected this competition, he did not act like a rebellious wild boy who went his own way and had to prove himself. Instead, he honestly chose the nineteen methods for refining Tianxuan Dan.
Material.
He won't do anything stupid that will destroy his career.
It's just that he lost the fun of the game and couldn't cheer up, so he sat in front of the desk and pretended to think, but in fact he was in a daze.
It only takes three degrees of incense to refine the Tianxuan Pill, so he is not in a hurry.
In fact, except for those who gave up the competition, most people were not in a hurry to start. Even after three hours, many people still did not select good materials.
Because in this competition, "refining" is secondary, thinking about how to do it is the key point, and once the materials for alchemy are selected, it is almost as good as thinking about it.
So choosing materials is actually the most important part.
…
At the same time, Liu Xingye posted the results of the first two games for the viewers in Paradise City to see.
"I don't know what was tested in the second game. Why were their results so disastrous?"
"Master Zhang's score in the second game was actually zero. How is that possible?"
"Yuxiang Casino is open. Getting rich overnight is not a dream. Come on!"
Paradise City is becoming more and more lively.
Among them, Zhang Xiaozu got a zero score in the second test, which made people who had seen his alchemy skills feel incredible.
Qian Ruoyun looked at the results of the first two games with a look of deep worry on his face. He looked at Brian next to him and asked: "Senior, is there still hope for the young master to compete for the first place in the Dan competition?"
Zhang Xiaozu's score in the first two games combined was 122 points.
Although ranked fifth, there is a gap of more than 100 points from the first place Ryu Ji-hwan's 243 points. It seems that there is no chance to compete for the first place.
Brian frowned and replied, "I can't understand."
He wasn't trying to deal with Qian Ruoyun, but he really couldn't understand it.
In his opinion, the thirty kinds of materials selected by Zhang Xiaozu cannot be used together to make an elixir, because the medicinal properties of several elixirs are strongly repellent and conflicting. If they are placed in the same elixir furnace, they will inevitably
The existence of a fryer.
"Could it be that you gave up and made this choice just to get a few valuable materials?"
"But looking at the way he is frowning and thinking hard, it doesn't look like he has given up."
"Perhaps it was because of the second loss that I risked my life and made a desperate move."
Brian muttered in his mind.
Qian Ruoyun scratched his hair in distress.
He knew nothing about alchemy, so he had no idea about the materials Zhang Xiaopou chose. He couldn't see why. He could only look at Brian and ask: "Senior, I don't know anything about alchemy. Can you explain it to me a little bit?"
"Those materials that the young master chose, if you let me refine them -" Brian paused, looked around, and his eyes fell on the towering tower in the distance.
On the Yueyang Tower, he raised his hand and pointed, saying: "We can blow up that tall building."
When Qian Ruoyun heard this, he was so frightened that his eyes almost popped out of his sockets, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
But after he recovered from the shock, he burst into laughter and said, "Young Master is an extraordinary talent. He must have found a way to win."
Brian gave him a "you sycophant" look of disdain.
…
"Old Taoist, isn't your disciple just because he got a low grade in the second test that he is resentful and wants to blow up my Qiqi Mountain?"
The Heavenly Lord of Bliss saw the alchemy materials selected by Zhang Xiaozu and teased Daozu.
Daozu glanced sideways and replied: "I'm not only going to blow up your Qiqi Mountain, but also be careful to level your Danxia Fairy Land to the ground."
"Yo yo yo, is it so scary? I'll have to wait and see." The Heavenly Lord of Paradise pretended to be frightened.
…
"This guy is very good at merging medicinal powers. Is it possible that he can go against the path of alchemy and fuse the medicinal powers of elixirs with conflicting medicinal properties?"
After Yan Mingchao calmed down from the shock, a bold guess suddenly came to his mind.
But he soon shook his head and denied this speculation, because it was too unbelievable.
If mutually exclusive and conflicting medicinal powers can be fused together, then the entire alchemy system will be subverted and rewritten.
…
Time passes slowly.
Ten hours passed and Zhang Xiaopeng did not move.
Twenty hours passed, and Zhang Xiaopeng still didn't move.
