Next was the second round of preliminary competition, and the teacher announced it on the stage.

"The second round is to make the [Wolfskin Combat Potion], and a quality score of 85 or above is considered acceptable."

As soon as the words fell, there was a groan from below. "Wow, this is so hard."

"Wolfskin Combat Potion, this is a niche and difficult potion, why would the school give such a question?" Some students who were studying potion making were discussing this, while most of the other students asked the classmates around them with a bewildered look on their faces.

"What is this potion used for? Why have I never heard of it?"

"How can I explain this? Everyone knows it's a good thing, but few people are willing to use it," said a student.

"[Wolfskin Combat Potion] is rated Silver. It temporarily enhances the user's physique, resistance, and willpower. It is generally used by a small number of elite troops in the military. It allows the user to maintain high energy for three days, quickly recover physical strength, and greatly enhance immunity to disease and infection. It also resists intimidation, fear, and charm, making the heart as strong as steel, and even has a slight effect of protecting the soul."

"Because of the numerous combined effects, it's very difficult to create. If you're not careful, the special effects might be biased or conflicting. It's a less popular silver-grade potion with a low production cost-effectiveness. During the rise of the Green Empire, the military placed large orders due to the constant wars, but since then, few have made it."

"Wow, that's going to be hard for a lot of people."

Most of the 50 or so students participating in the second preliminary round looked worried. Many of them had never made this potion before, and now they were suddenly being asked to make it on site. A passing score of 60, let alone 85, was a stretch. For a moment, the courtyard came to a brief standstill.

At this time, only a small number of students remained calm and slowly took action, starting to slowly select from the materials provided by the school, and then grind and crush them.

Luo Lanxier had never made this kind of potion before, but fortunately, the Wolf Gold Chrysanthemum Potion was one of the assessment items for intermediate alchemists, and she knew the formula. Although it was not used much, many people had heard of it and had learned about it.

She thought for a while, took out a pen and wrote and drew on paper, and finally listed five different methods of making it before starting.

First, he picked out a small bowl of golden wolf chrysanthemums and leisurely tore off the golden, stiletto-shaped petals, setting them aside. Then he began preparing the other ingredients, first grinding them, then melting, simmering, filtering, and so on, exploring step by step according to the recipe.

After a moment's hesitation, the others also began to try the recipes from memory, some even flipping through their books on the spot. The students nearby also watched with interest. Since the second round of competition lasted from noon to dusk, approximately five to six hours, there was plenty of time. A truly skilled alchemist could even create three batches within that time.

However, most people are exploring this for the first time, so the progress is quite touching.

The most conspicuous and special person in the crowd of contestants was Gene. As the chief of the Tower Academy and a genius alchemist, he passed the assessment of high-level alchemist last year. He had made this kind of potion before, so he was familiar with it and made it very quickly this time.

The other one was Osuna with purple hair and black skirt. For some reason, she was also very familiar with this obscure potion. It seemed that she had just made it recently and her movements were quite skillful.

Some spectators were initially excited, but after a few hours, most of the contestants' progress was slow, with many restarts, mistakes, and subpar results, and they gradually lost their patience. After all, pharmaceutical manufacturing is not like a battle, and it is not very entertaining.

"Can Roland pass?" Lily stood at the side of the courtyard and watched, muttering to herself. There were not many people in the courtyard at this time.

"It will definitely work." Bumansha said without any worry.

At this time, a small cheer came from outside the venue. It turned out that Gene and Osuna had completed the production of the potion and were sealing it. The golden amber liquid was quite beautiful in the afternoon sun.

"Come on, Ms. Osuna." A burst of cheers came.

Off to the side, Loran Hill didn't even look up, continuing her methodical experiments, meticulously preparing five potions with slightly different techniques. Her composure gradually attracted a group of spectators.

"Who's that girl in the hood?"

"I've never seen her before, so I don't know. But judging by her skillful techniques, she should be quite capable."

"What a great figure." A girl said enviously.

"Contestant No. 104, 94 points, 92 points, 96 points, average score 94 points, passed." The teacher's score also came out, this is Gene's score.

"As expected, the chief is really strong. He can even get 94 points for such an obscure potion." Some students began to look at a young man in the courtyard.

This young man wore a monocle and an exquisite black tuxedo with gold thread. He had short, clean black hair and a handsome, pale complexion. He was the headmaster of High Tower Academy. After graduating from the Black and White Dragons, he was now the undisputed leader of High Tower Academy. He was the president of the Arcanum Puppet Club, the owner of the Gear Crown, one of the Ten Crowns, and a Magic Sequence 6, Black Puppeteer, Jean Nerlund.

After making the potion, he calmly put on his white gloves, picked up his staff, and turned to leave. Today was just the preliminary round, and the official final would be held next weekend.

"So handsome~" Many girls were muttering in a low voice, some of them were watching with a bit of crazy look.

"It is said that this senior doesn't have a lover yet." A girl announced this information in a low voice.
