As soon as Lu Lan woke up, he saw two people standing on his left and right, as if they were about to take him away.
His eyes darkened, and he quickly understood his situation. However, he still looked sleepy, as if he had no idea of the impending crisis.
"Humph! You finally woke up."
The voice of the old man in black robe drew Lu Lan's attention over there.
"You disregarded the academy rules and openly fell asleep in the competition arena. I was planning to have you thrown out directly."
"Now that you're awake, pack your things and get out of the academy!"
Lu Lan narrowed his eyes and said:
"I just slept a little too long. The academy doesn't have a rule prohibiting students from sleeping on the competition field... But Elder Peng wanted to kick me out without my consent. Isn't this Elder Peng's action a violation of the academy's rules?"
"How dare you! You're a loser, and you dare to talk back!"
The black-robed elder Peng Gu shouted angrily, "You slept in the competition arena, which has already wasted most of the time. It is impossible to refine the elixir in the remaining time."
"How can this elder be considered a violation of the academy's rules by expelling you early?!"
"Really? But those three incense sticks haven't burned out yet, so I still have plenty of time left to refine the medicine."
Lu Lan sneered, "Besides, the Aptitude Stone originally determined that I had the best talent for alchemy. How could you have predicted that I was useless?"
"What? You're not convinced?"
Peng Gu sneered, pointed at Wu Peng beside him, and said:
"Back then, the Aptitude Stone judged that Wu Peng's alchemy talent was only slightly inferior to yours, but now he has already refined a top-grade, first-grade Yijin Pill!"
"And you've wasted your alchemy talent for an entire year and haven't even made a single pill yet!"
"If you're not a waste, then who is?!"
When Wu Peng heard Peng Gu constantly using him to belittle Lu Lan, he felt so happy that he almost flew away.
He glanced at Lu Lan complacently, his eyes full of disdain.
Lu Lan narrowed his eyes and glanced at the Yi Jin Dan that was still in the hands of the elders.
He raised his eyebrows, clapped his hands and exclaimed:
"Oh, that's great, Brother Wu! In just one year, you've already managed to refine a top-grade Yijin Pill!"
"This talent for alchemy is indeed very strong!"
Hearing that Lu Lan also started to praise him, Wu Peng felt even more proud.
"pity--"
Lu Lan suddenly changed the subject:
"That old fellow must be blind. He can't even see that there's something wrong with your pill!"
Is there something wrong with this pill?
Hearing this, Peng Gu laughed instead of getting angry.
A guy who slept for a whole year and didn't even listen to a few words he said in the classroom.
What problems can you see?
Wu Peng's expression also turned cold, his eyes became more disdainful, and he sneered:
"Really? Then I'd like to hear what Brother Lu has to say. Why do you say there's something wrong with my Yijin Pill?"
As soon as the words fell, Lu Lan said mercilessly:
"First, I can tell from the scent of the elixir that some of the herbs you selected are past their optimal age. This is why the scent of the elixir smells sour and rancid despite its fresh fragrance."
"Secondly, your Yijin Pill is not even a first-grade, upper-grade pill. It's at most a first-grade, mid-grade pill."
"The Yijin Pill itself is only a first-grade pill that has the effect of repairing bones and muscles. The higher the quality, the better the effect."
"Although your third Danwen looks good, it's obviously a bit discontinuous. Apparently, you didn't control the heat well when outlining the Danwen, and you weren't able to draw a complete Danwen in one go."
"And in this case, the effect will certainly be greatly reduced."
Lu Lan raised two fingers and sneered, "These are the two biggest problems with the Yi Jin Dan you refined."
As soon as Lu Lan finished speaking, the whole audience suddenly burst into chuckles.
"Hahaha... This guy is really talking nonsense without thinking. How could there be any problem with the pills refined by Wu Peng?"
"He just sleeps in all day, he must be talking in his sleep!"
"Several elders are still here. I don't know how this guy has the nerve to say such things."
The disciples who had already finished refining the medicine were looking at Lu Lan with glee, waiting for him to make a fool of himself.
Wu Peng also sneered and didn't take Lu Lan's words to heart at all.
However, at this moment, an elder who was older than the other elders suddenly frowned and said:
"This... Lu Lan really didn't see it wrong! The second half of the third danwen seemed to be broken, but it continued at the end..."
"And this smell... If you take a closer look, there's a faint sour, rotten smell. This could only be because some of the herbs used were of the wrong age. Otherwise, this smell would never occur!"
As soon as the elder finished speaking, the sneer on Wu Peng's face froze in an instant.
The whispers that originally filled the entire place suddenly stopped.
The eyes focused on Lu Lan suddenly became shocked and suspicious.
Peng Gu and several other elders also hurriedly checked the Yi Jin Dan again carefully.
The result was exactly as Lu Lan said... This Yi Jin Dan really had two problems: discontinuous dan patterns and a sour and rotten smell!
It is hard to say whether such Yi Jin Dan can be considered a true first-grade top-grade product.
Peng Gu's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
The problem that he couldn't see, Lu Lan saw at a glance from a distance.
Doesn't this mean... he's even worse than Lu Lan?!
How is this possible!
Wu Peng, who was staring at Lu Lan gloomily, was silent for a moment, then suddenly sneered and said:
