“Bang!”
Under the gaze of everyone, the man in black robe put down the pen in his hand, picked up the test paper on the table, blew the ink dry, and then walked towards the three people in the judges' seat.
Mr. He put his test paper aside, looked at the unburned incense, and said calmly: "There is still one tenth of time left. I hope you can speed up. If you fail to hand in your paper by the time limit, you will be eliminated."
What can be accomplished in one-tenth of the time?
Some people were so anxious that they broke out in cold sweats, but Mu Ruyue was the only one who kept writing calmly, as if she hadn't heard anything.
"Did I guess wrong?" Huo Lao frowned. "These are just basic knowledge. It takes her so long. Isn't she the dark horse in this competition? The sleeping incense may just be a coincidence."
The last bit of incense fell to the ground, and Mu Ruyue finally finished writing the last stroke before the incense burned out.
"She was lucky enough to catch up at the last second." Qin Feifei looked coldly at Mu Ruyue who was walking towards the referee's seat and smiled coldly. She thought this woman couldn't even make it through the knockout round.
But only in this way would she be interested, right? If the opponent's strength was too weak, then there would be no point in attacking him, so Qin Feifei hoped that she could pass the elimination round.
"Okay, the time is up, everyone put down your pens and wait for the results."
Hearing this, the young people who had not finished walked away with disappointment on their faces, knowing that they were definitely going to be eliminated this time.
Mr. He didn't care about other people's expressions and started reading the contestants' test papers with Mr. Huo. Only Mr. Qin sat aside with a sullen face and didn't even look at the test papers.
He had already made up his mind, so what difference did it make whether he looked at it or not?
"Old Huo, look at what this person wrote," Old He suddenly became excited while holding a test paper. "I was wondering what was going on. I was wondering why the furnace kept exploding when I used Fire Cloud Grass and Starlight Seeds to refine pills last time. It turns out that an ingredient was missing. And this, Purple Cloud Bark actually has this effect. This is the first time I've heard of it..."
If the test paper was just filled with random scribbles, Mr. He would not have been so excited. However, there was a detailed explanation on the test paper, which forced him to believe it.
Moreover, the test paper was very long and clearly broke down the ingredients of each medicinal herb, many of which they had never heard of before. There were even more than ten elixir recipes written down.
"Mu Ruyue..." He Lao murmured the name, his eyes gleaming with excitement, "This girl must be a genius. Yes, she is definitely a genius."
A person's memory is limited. Even if these were taught to her by her master, how could she know so much? Even Qingyu only wrote six.
"What?" Huo Lao snatched it away. He looked at the contents written on it and suddenly felt enlightened. "I see. I was wondering why I failed to refine the Sanyuan Pill last time. So this is what happened."
"I haven't finished reading it yet, why are you trying to grab it!" Mr. He glared at him fiercely, and quickly snatched it back into his hands. As he read on, he suddenly felt unprecedented clarity.
"you……"
Seeing that the old man was so shameless, Huo Lao was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but there was nothing he could do. He could only move his head closer and watch with Huo Lao.
