Chapter 791 Beyond the limit! Only thirteen possibilities of becoming a pill?
All the hundreds of players on the field were silent.
Each of them looked solemn, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Restore Danfang.
Not to mention the alchemy master, even the throne level cannot easily do it.
Among the players present, the highest level is the master of alchemy, and most of them are only at the innate level.
How can we do what only experienced alchemists can do, restore the elixir?
"What the referees are going to test should not be about 'restoring the lost recipe' in the original sense, but rather about blurring one or two details of the conventional recipe for us to improve..." Zhu Yan thought to himself.
He felt that it was impossible for the referees to actually take out a incomplete recipe from ancient times that they didn't even know the answer to, and then test the innate novices.
What they have to do is to test their knowledge reserve, innovation, and their ability to "dare to do it".
"The higher the level of the elixir, the higher the quality, and the less time it takes..."
Zhu Yanpin felt enlightened after reading this assessment standard.
He guessed that the incomplete elixir recipe presented by the referees was not of high quality, even lower than the "Thirsty Mysterious elixir".
In this way, everyone can achieve simple "recovery".
…
"Restore the elixir recipe?"
Xu Xiaoshou on the field was also pondering.
"Proficiency in cooking" gave him a strong foundation, but he lacked innovation ability. Xu Xiaoshou didn't know whether he had the ability to restore the recipe.
In other words, if you ask him to follow the conventional alchemy techniques and complete every operation on the normal alchemy recipe, he can do it with ease.
But creating a new elixir is far from as simple as mixing many elixirs together to achieve results.
Restoring the recipe is also tested to a large extent by the level of "creation".
"The troops will come to block it, and the water will come and the earth will cover it."
Despite this, Xu Xiaoshou was not very worried.
The things that President Dong Ling puts out for assessment should not be too advanced or too difficult.
And if he couldn't even get the things at the normal assessment level, probably 80% to 90% of the people in the field would just be disappointed.
…
On the referee's bench.
"Tsk, tsk, these little bastards, they probably thought that we would only bring out some inferior things to show to the public?" An old president smiled maliciously.
"This elixir recipe should not be too 'incomplete'! There are thirteen possibilities for elixir formation, ranging from tenth to sixth grade. I don't know how many percent those little guys can achieve."
"In my opinion, it would be great if someone could restore the eighth-grade 'Huanyang Pill'."
"Sixth-grade masters may have come into contact with the sixth-grade 'Yang Lei Dan', but they certainly don't know how to refine it, so they should be able to come up with the seventh-grade 'Little Thunder Pill'."
"But in this case, then...hehehehe!"
When the presidents talked about this, they grinned tacitly.
The incomplete Danfang set a trap.
Once someone pushes back on the seventh-grade "Little Thunder Pill" and pushes it to the end, they will inevitably find that the final step has fatal medicinal properties conflict with the original pill recipe, so they have no choice but to give up.
But at that time, there was definitely not much time left for them.
"This time we will not only test their innovation ability, but also see who among these little guys is more stable."
"You are so ambitious that even a sixth-grade alchemy master will fail at this level."
"I guess that if someone can recover a seventh-grade elixir this time, he will probably win the second round."
"Not bad! But the greater possibility is that we should review a large number of eighth- and ninth-grade elixirs."
"That's really boring, boring, hahaha..."
The old foxes talked boringly, and one smiled more lewdly than the other.
The focus of this level of assessment is not on any one of high level, high quality, or short time, but on the combination of the three.
If only someone could appear who would definitely identify the correct eighth-grade elixir and recommend it.
So as long as it succeeds in the end, takes a short time, and the quality of the elixir is acceptable.
The score he is most likely to get is much higher than that of a person who is obsessed with seventh-grade elixirs but spends all his time to get them.
During the discussion, Dong Ling stood up and waved, ignoring the private discussions of many presidents, and said loudly: "The promotion competition has begun, the players have entered the formation and are waiting for the staff to distribute the jade slip pill prescription."
The young people set off on the field and entered the spiritual formation with different moods.
This time there are only a hundred players left to compete together.
The venue is large enough so there is no need to rotate like in the first round.
Xu Xiaoshou took Xiao Wanfeng and followed many players into the formation.
By this time, no one paid attention to the existence of the character Xiao Wanfeng.
Because everyone knows that this young man is "really" brought by Mr. Xu to "serve tea".
There is no other use!
He is said to be an alchemy boy, but apart from serving tea, he can't use any of the alchemy skills. He is just a guy going through the motions and doesn't know the meaning of his existence.
"Come on, Mr. Xu!"
"Yu Chuchu rushes to the duck!"
"Zhu Yan, I am optimistic about you, you will rise in the second round!"
"..."
There are a lot of guys in the audience, each cheering for the player they support.
There is no other reason.
The Alchemy Conference is just and not as crazy as the Tianluo War, so betting on the opening market is strictly prohibited in the competition venue.
But there are always some people who take big risks and open small stocks that are unknown to the public.
In order to make a little extra money, the spiritual refiners watching the show naturally screamed more happily than the other.
…
Within the spiritual array.
Hundreds of players have taken their places.
The staff began to distribute the jade slips, with fourteen copies in hand.
After receiving such a large number of jade slips, the alchemists looked up at the referee's seat in shock, waiting for an explanation.
Dong Ling stood up and said with a smile:
"The first jade slip the staff will give you is the incomplete elixir recipe."
"The rest... Just a reminder, this incomplete elixir recipe has thirteen possible derivatives. Players, please be careful to control your time and don't delay."
Thirteen kinds?
So many?
The alchemists on the field were stunned.
There are thirteen possibilities of achieving elixir by both parties?
This means that there are no special main drugs or auxiliary drugs in the elixir recipe that can determine the direction of the elixir at once!
"It's as difficult as climbing to heaven..."
At this moment, even Yu Chuchu, Zhu Yan and other sixth-grade alchemy masters couldn't help but start to swallow their saliva.
Sure enough, Ling Nian looked at the jade slip.
What they could see was just one main ingredient and seventy-two auxiliary ingredients in the incomplete prescription.
"Go crazy!"
At that moment, some alchemists' faces turned dark.
According to the elixir prescription, one of the main herbs is "Wuyuancao".
This is an elixir without attributes, and it is also one of the main ingredients in many elixirs. It is impossible to determine what kind of elixir it is.
Ninety-nine percent of the seventy-two auxiliary medicines are commonplace, without many major features, and it is impossible to find out the approximate direction of elixirs from them.
Those present were all young talents from the five realms of alchemy, and they were very powerful.
But after reading this elixir prescription, the only conclusion that can be drawn is that among the auxiliary medicines, most of them are fire elixirs, with a total of thirty-three flavors.
Probably, the direction of becoming an elixir is fire-based elixirs...
But this direction is too vague!
There must be tens of thousands of low-level fire elixirs in the alchemy world, right?
Among this large base number, only thirteen possibilities of correct elixir formation were found?
Looking for a needle in a haystack!
"Referees, are you kidding me?"
Almost at the same time, after recovering from the jade slip prescription, the players on the field all looked at the referee's seat.
What came into view was the strange and unpredictable smiles of the eighteen old foxes.
And, President Dong Ling made a move:
"Timing begins!"
The contestants instantly felt as though hundreds of thousands of grass and mud horses were galloping past.
They weren't kidding...
Really fucked!
Time was running out, so they immediately lowered their heads and began the first step of analysis that might lead to sudden death.
"that……"
At this moment, the position of the No. 1 Spiritual Array flashed with light, as if the Spiritual Array was locked.
Dong Ling's mouth twitched, her face darkened, and she hurriedly looked at the formation order in her hand.
Not moved!
Yes, no one has touched the formation order, it has always been in the palm of your hand.
Therefore, it is really the spiritual formation that Mr. Xu himself closed...
"How are you doing?" Dong Ling suppressed her anger and spoke.
How on earth did this guy do it?
He also has high attainments in spiritual formation?
Then shouldn't he go to the spiritual formation competition next door? What is he doing here?
Yu Chuchu, who was the closest, noticed the movement immediately, glanced around and turned around.
Mr. Xu is causing trouble again?
What is he going to do?
In the last round of the competition, she relied on her opponent Heiji's experience in the alchemy process and scored a good score of "97 points" in the second place.
Therefore, even if Yu Chuchu didn't want to watch due to moral reasons, she couldn't help but pay attention to the movements of the No. 1 spiritual formation.
The alchemists who were far away did not notice.
But at the same time, the people inside the dozens of spiritual formations in front of them all turned their attention towards them.
After all, this is a guy who can teach in a closed area.
Maybe he discovered a blind spot?
Xu Xiaoshou chuckled, pointed at the thirteen jade slips spread out on the table brought out by Xiao Wanfeng, and asked: "Presidents, I have a question. Do these thirteen jade slips have to be burned?" Finished, did you hand it in last?”
Dong Ling was startled, then raised the corner of his mouth and almost couldn't help but laugh.
"puff!"
The other presidents on the referee's bench couldn't hold it in any longer, and they burst into laughter.
Lu Chenghui stared at his old eyes, leaned forward with a smile, finally stopped, and then patted his thigh and said: "If you have this ability, you can naturally burn it all and give it to us."
"Yes, if you are really good at it, you can record all thirteen possibilities of success. We are willing to give you this opportunity to win the championship." Other presidents spoke up.
And most of the rest couldn't help but start mocking.
"Hahaha, record thirteen results? You're afraid you're going to make people laugh!"
"Ignorant child, do you know that even one possibility of restoring the pill recipe may cost you the entire game?"
"He still burns everything. How arrogant, this kid!"
Lu Chenghui wiped his tears and suddenly realized something. He looked at President Dong Ling and said, "President, what this guy said is quite good. We seem to have announced one less rule."
Dong Ling took a deep breath, wanting to stop these old people from playing games.
But in the end, he sighed, held the formation order, and shut down everyone's spiritual formation.
The dozens of spirit formations, including Yu Chuchu, could not hear the conversation between Xu Shao and the referee, and were wondering what would happen to make the old presidents laugh to tears.
At this time, with a brush, the entire spiritual array was turned off, and everyone looked up at the same time.
Dong Ling announced: "I forgot to tell everyone. I was reminded by Master Xu just now, and now I have added another scoring rule. One of the criteria for a perfect score in the second round is that all thirteen jade slips are burned correctly."
Full score rule!
This crucial rule had not been announced until this moment.
It can only mean that from the beginning to the end, not even one president thought that anyone could perfectly deduce the possibilities of the thirteen incomplete elixir recipes within an hour.
"He was just confirming the perfect score rule?" Yu Chuchu thought, turning to look at Mr. Xu.
The latter was still being served by Xiao Wanfeng, holding tea and sipping it with gusto, nodding in approval of the new rules.
When he saw her looking at him, he turned back and raised his eyebrows, as if he remembered the bet.
Yu Chuchu was so angry that she shook her face angrily and looked away.
"What the hell?"
After the other alchemists raised their eyes, upon hearing that this was a violation of the rules, they immediately scolded, lowered their heads and got back to work.
How mentally ill do you have to be for someone to think that they can perfectly deduce the thirteen possibilities of becoming an elixir?
Then Master Xu is a fool!
Wasting so much time just to ask such an unrealistic question?
If you have this time, you might as well immerse yourself in the analysis work. In a flash of inspiration, you have already figured out the first possibility...
The audience outside witnessed the whole process and burst into laughter.
"powerful!"
"I would like to call Mr. Xu the strongest in this wave!"
"Yes, people who practice martial arts must have this kind of determination not to believe in destiny. Even if I can't deduce the thirteen possibilities of becoming an elixir, you took out thirteen jade slips and threw them at my face for no reason.
If you don't explain the rules, you are insulting me! I just want to ask clearly!"
"Young master Xu, come to me. I like your spirit of breaking the casserole and getting to the bottom of it... Come on, Yu Chuchu, I'll beat you."
"Pfft, you guys are so disgusting. How can you ridicule Mr. Xu like this? He is so confident that he will burn all thirteen jade slips for you when he doesn't know!"
"Yes, yes, Master Xu is awesome. You can burn thirteen wrong jade slips and hand them in to get full marks, right?"
"Hahaha……"
The people outside were laughing.
A turbulent wave of human voices came, and the noise was shocking.
"The game continues."
Dong Ling quickly grabbed the formation order and closed the spiritual formations on the field again to prevent the noise from affecting the performance of the players.
"Master Xu..."
In the No. 1 Spiritual Array, Xiao Wanfeng faced people's abuse and felt that Xu Shaozai had brought humiliation on himself.
As for why their spiritual formation can't resist the ridicule of the audience...
In the first round of the competition, Xiao Wanfeng wanted to ask about this, but he was a smart man and chose to remain silent.
Xu Xiaoshou was happy and said nothing more.
Like the other players, he had a general idea after taking a look at the incomplete Danfang.
The difference is that based on the "cooking proficiency", the approximate result of becoming a pill can be deduced immediately.
The elixir used in this incomplete elixir seems to have more than thirteen answers after being arranged and combined.
That's why Xu Xiaoshou asked the probing question just now.
"But why only thirteen jade slips were given instead of sixteen?"
"They paid less?"
Squinting, Xu Xiaoshou stared at the thirteen blank jade slips on the table.
It took him a while to finally realize that it might not be that the referees missed the jade slip.
Rather, their level of knowledge is probably enough to use the elixirs in the incomplete elixir recipes to piece together up to thirteen complete elixir combinations.
