The fact that the three judges said "good" three times in a row shows just how high the quality of the batch of Rejuvenation Pills refined by Lu Yifeng was.
"Excellent, very excellent. One of the three pills is actually a mid-grade pill, and although the other two are low-grade pills, their appearance and efficacy are top-notch. Very good." The judge sitting in the middle nodded approvingly.
It is no easy feat to receive such comments from the judges of the Alchemy Guild.
These pills are also graded. The worst is naturally low grade, followed by medium grade, then high grade, and actually there is another grade above high grade, which is top grade.
It is already extremely rare for an ordinary alchemist to be able to refine a high-grade pill. As for a top-grade pill, that is something that can only be encountered by chance, and many alchemists cannot refine it in their entire lives.
It is said that once a top-grade elixir is refined, the entire space will be enveloped in its fragrance, which lingers for a long time.
When a top-grade elixir is successfully refined, extraordinary phenomena will occur, indicating the elixir's exceptional nature.
Lu Yifeng's face grew even more smug. He was certain the championship was his. The people below, supporting Lu Yifeng's victory, chattered incessantly.
"See that? See that? I said before that Lu Yifeng would win the championship. Now, look, the judges have such a high opinion of him. This time, the championship is definitely his."
"I always thought Lu Yifeng was the champion of this alchemy competition, and it seems he really did not disappoint me."
"So handsome! Lu Yifeng is so handsome! He's not only good-looking, but more importantly, his alchemy skills are so high. I just love him to death."
Liu Xiaoyuan was anxious. Damn it, judging from the situation, Lu Yifeng had a very high chance of winning the championship. He had to find a way to pull Lu Yifeng off the champion's throne.
Next, the second contestant to hand in his paper was Zhang Fangyi. He refined the same three pills as Lu Yifeng, one of which was of medium grade and the other two were of low grade.
Although Zhang Fangyi's skill in refining pills was similar to Lu Yifeng's, and the quality of his pills was the same, he was slower to submit his paper than Lu Yifeng.
As mentioned before, time is a weighty standard for measuring performance.
Therefore, in Liu Xiaoyuan's view, Lu Yifeng was probably destined to be the champion, so he had to find a way to pull him off the champion's throne.
Liu Xiaoyuan's mind was racing, and he already had an idea: he would challenge Lu Yifeng later, and he wouldn't have to worry about Lu Yifeng not accepting the challenge.
With the help of the god-level invincible system, Liu Xiaoyuan will have no difficulty in defeating Lu Yifeng. Once he pulls Lu Yifeng off the champion's throne, he will be the champion and can make any demands he wants.
Jiang Qingming was the fourth to hand in his results. He had refined four pills, but they were all of low grade, which was already quite good.
In Liu Xiaoyuan's opinion, Jiang Qingming's alchemy skills should rank among the top five.
Some cultivators refine several pills, but in the end only one is good, while the rest are bad and useless.
Finally, when the results were announced, Lu Yifeng had a smug look on his face, because judging from the current situation, he was certain to win the championship.
Lu Yifeng's grandfather was all smiles; his grandson becoming the champion of this alchemy competition was definitely a source of pride for him.
Besides, once you become a member of the Alchemy Guild, the guild will definitely take good care of your grandson.
He was certain that his grandson would surpass him in achievements and become a renowned alchemist.
"This alchemy competition has now come to an end. Welcome everyone to attend." The judge in the middle stood up, ready to announce the results.
"The alchemy competition has ended. Now it's time to announce the results. The champion of this alchemy competition is Lu Yifeng!"
As the judges finished speaking, enthusiastic applause and cheers erupted from below. Lu Yifeng beamed with pride, finally becoming the champion of this alchemy competition. He could finally make a request to the Alchemy Guild.
Lu Yifeng's demand was naturally that the Alchemy Guild propose marriage to Yuxiao Pavilion and bring Yang Zihan back to China.
Lu Yifeng wasn't interested in Yang Zihan herself, but rather in her pure water spiritual root. The thought of soon acquiring a woman with a pure water spiritual root made Lu Yifeng's smile even wider.
Lu Yifeng's grandfather's old face was also beaming with a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum. Those who knew Lu Yifeng's grandfather all congratulated him, because with this championship, as long as he didn't do anything reckless, he would soar to great heights in the future.
"Old Lu, I'll have to rely on you a lot in the future."
"Old Lu, you've really raised a wonderful grandson! It's truly enviable. Congratulations!"
Lu Yifeng's grandfather received praise from those around him, and his old face beamed like a chrysanthemum, greatly satisfying his vanity.
Although the judges announced the second-place winner, which was Zhang Fangyi, Zhang Fangyi was naturally dissatisfied with getting second place.
In Zhang Fangyi's view, he was only a tiny bit slower than Lu Yifeng, so why was he in second place?
That's what he thought, but Zhang Fangyi wouldn't dare question the judges of the Alchemy Guild unless he didn't want to stay in the alchemy world anymore.
Next up is the third place, and to Liu Xiaoyuan's surprise, the winner of this third place is Jiang Qingming!
In Liu Xiaoyuan's opinion, Jiang Qingming should have been fourth or fifth, but he was unexpectedly third. Making it into the top three is a remarkable achievement.
"I hereby announce that the top three finishers in this Alchemy Competition will be accepted as disciples by our Alchemy Guild, and we will teach them alchemy techniques. As you all know, our Alchemy Guild is staffed by alchemists from the cultivation world. To be taught alchemy techniques by an alchemist from our Alchemy Guild is an absolutely incredible opportunity..."
Those below were filled with envy and jealousy upon hearing this, thinking how wonderful it would be if they could have such an opportunity.
Some even said that they shouldn't have cultivated at all, but should have studied alchemy instead, and maybe today's first place would have been theirs.
"Alright, for the champion of this alchemy competition, our Alchemy Guild has given him a tremendous opportunity: he is allowed to make any request, and as long as our Alchemy Guild can agree to it, we will definitely fulfill it!" the judge in the middle continued.
These words caused an uproar. Damn it, this was like receiving a blank check and being given free rein to do whatever they wanted on it! Why didn't such a good thing fall into my lap?!
