C906 The First Day of the Semifinals
C906 The First Day of the Semifinals
Loong Fei stood at the edge of the square. His gaze swept across the entire arena. At the same time, he began to observe the situation of the competition.
In the center of the square, there was a wide competition area. Every ten meters away, there was an Eight Immortals table. Each table corresponded to a contestant.
Apart from the competition area, there was a three meter tall platform. On the platform, there was a row of tables and chairs. It looked like the judges of this conference.
Although the competition had yet to officially begin, the entire square was currently bustling with activity. Even if they were not members of the Medicine King Hall, they were all cheering for the alchemists they supported.
Of course, among this hubbub, the name that was heard the most was naturally Baili Qinloong. After all, Baili Qinloong was one of the five great geniuses of the Inner Academy. No member of the Medicine King Hall's reputation could compare to Baili Qinloong.
"The refinement of pills focuses on calmness. Refining pills in public. Wouldn't that easily affect the performance of an alchemist?"
Loong Fei asked doubtfully. After all, he had seen Chi Fengyu refine pills in the courtyard. To refine a good pill was the greatest taboo to be disturbed.
"Mr. Fei, you don't have to worry about this. The academy has already thought of this long ago. Let's just watch the show!"
When Hua Mazi said this, he stared intently at the competition venue with an expectant look on his face.
Due to the low status of Thunderbolt Hall, the members of Thunderbolt Hall could only watch from afar. Fortunately, these members were Internal Sect Expert and had excellent eyesight, so they wouldn't affect the viewing of the competition too much.
"Students, welcome to the venue of the Pill Refining Conference. Next, please welcome the judges of this Pill Refining Conference to the stage!"
At this moment, a familiar female voice was heard. Then, a tall and beautiful girl walked up to the high platform on the judges' seats.
"It's her?"
Looking at the girl's figure, This was because he never thought that the one hosting the Pill Refining Conference would be the chief auctioneer Liu Ruyan whom he had met at the Treasure Pavilion's auction back then.
As Liu Ruyan's voice faded, a sage-like old man took the lead and walked to the judges' seats. Loong Fei had seen this old man before. He was one of the five Combat Emperors of the War God Academy, the Medicine Sovereign, Dan Yangzi.
The person who followed closely behind Dan Yangzi was also someone Loong Fei was familiar with. This person wasn't anyone else. It's Master Liu! He was also one of the five Combat Emperors, Hong Tianxiao Zhong Huang.
When Dan Yangzi and Hong Tianxiao arrived at the center of the judging panel, a famous figure followed them. This person was the Dean of the inner courtyard, one of the five great Combat Emperors, Sword Emperor Han Kun.
It could be seen from the order of the people entering the venue. Dan Yangzi was undoubtedly the final judge of this competition, while Hong Tianxiao and Han Kun were just there to watch the competition.
When the three Combat Emperors appeared, the entire square quieted down. All the students below held their breaths as they looked at the people on the platform with respect in their eyes.
If it wasn't for the alchemy conference, these students would have had the chance to meet these great figures. Therefore, no matter how proud they were, they would behave obediently in front of the Battle Emperor.
After the three Combat Emperors entered the competition, the next thing that followed was the dean of Heavenly Court, Mei Xuanzu, and the dean of Earth Academy, Old Monster Ding. These directors who held the highest status in the outer court could only sit at the side.
"Students, today is the second round of the competition. It will be held for three days. Next, please enter the competition and start preparing for today's competition."
Liu Ruyan moved her sexy red lips and used a slightly magnetic voice to continue hosting the alchemy competition. At the same time, she announced the competition rules.
As it was the first day of the semifinals, the content of today's competition was not very difficult. As long as one was able to refine high-grade medicinal Spirit Condensation Pills, they could enter the second day's competition.
Following the start of the competition, one could see all sorts of refined and refined alchemists walking into the competition area one after another. After which, they each stood in front of the Eight Immortals' table that had their numbers arranged.
Because the entire academy only had a hundred Medicine King Hall members entering the semifinals, today's competition venue just happened to be a hundred alchemists.
A hundred alchemists entered the arena according to four or five square formations and then stood separately in front of their eight immortal tables. Such a scene looked quite shocking.
"First of all, congratulations to all the students who entered the semifinals. Today's competition rules are to refine a high-grade medicinal pill. The medicinal pill's name is not limited! Anyone who has refined a high-grade medicinal pill can enter tomorrow's competition."
Liu Ruyan once again announced the competition rules, and these participating Medicine King Hall disciples immediately took out their medicinal Exquisite Jade Cauldrons and placed them on the Eight Immortals table.
"If Mr. Fengyu is here, he will definitely be able to enter tomorrow's competition."
Loong Fei, who was standing at the far end of the square, looked at the competition venue and immediately analyzed it.
"Yes, but this is only today's competition. The later the competition, the harder it will be."
Hua Mazi also nodded. And at this time in the arena, these alchemists had already begun to prepare for pill refinement.
"That's true. I wonder how many people can enter tomorrow's competition today."
Loong Fei's gaze swept over these alchemists. He discovered that among these hundred participating members, the majority were around four star alchemists. There were even some three star alchemists. As for five star alchemists and above, Loong Fei discovered that there were only a dozen or so people.
Of course, the most dazzling among them was naturally Baili Qinloong. On the table in front of him was a Exquisite Jade Cauldron that emitted a blue light. It immediately attracted the attention of most of the surrounding students.
"Good fellow, it's actually a six-star Exquisite Jade Cauldron?"
Loong Fei was slightly surprised because a six-star Exquisite Jade Cauldron was considered a priceless treasure. If it was really sold at a price, it would be at least 5,000 High-grade Energy Stones.
Back then, in order to borrow Boss Cao's four star medicinal Exquisite Jade Cauldron, Chi Fengyu had borrowed half of the sales rights of Chi Fengyu's medicinal Baili Qinloongs. Hence, Baili Qinloong's six star medicinal Blue Jade Cauldron could definitely be considered a top grade medicinal cauldron.
After witnessing Baili Qinloong's medicinal cauldron, Loong Fei's gaze turned towards Hee Qingyun. He saw that there was only a four star medicinal Exquisite Jade Cauldron placed on Hee Qingyun's eight immortal table.
Originally, Hee Qingyun had a five star medicinal Exquisite Jade Cauldron. Unfortunately, it was shattered by Loong Fei in Divine Domain of Dark. Therefore, he could only make do with a four-star Exquisite Jade Cauldron in this competition.
Other than the Exquisite Jade Cauldron, these participating students quickly took out all kinds of medicinal herbs that they had prepared earlier from their bracelets. After all, they naturally had to prepare medicinal herbs to refine pills.
"The competition officially begins. Time limit: 8 hours!"
As Liu Ruyan's voice fell, a faintly discernible transparent wall of air immediately rose from the surroundings of the competition area, separating the viewing competition area and the competition area completely.
