afternoon.
The list was announced, and the three hundred selected individuals gathered together to begin further selection.
Ye Buxiu was once again seated next to Ding Ning.
Three hundred people is neither too many nor too few.
He felt he could still muddle through a bit more.
This time, they didn't even bother with the character "丹" (dan).
I stayed there doing this for another afternoon.
This time, he successfully refined a mid-to-high grade fifth-rank pill.
Although it caused quite a stir, it was ultimately only of medium quality, not high quality, and it didn't produce any Danjie.
But others are different.
In the afternoon's competition, all sorts of lightning danced wildly in the arena.
In the air, lightning crashed down on the medicinal pills, creating a spectacular display of power.
The final results are out.
Ye Buxiu made it into the top thirty with a slim score.
Ding Ning stopped there.
In this alchemist competition, people have already selected a list of several individuals who are most likely to make it into the top thirty based on their own understanding.
They listed 25 people who made the list.
However, some dark horses have emerged in this competition.
Jiu'er is one of them.
She came in first place in both competitions.
She was originally just a weak woman, and even her registered level was only a fourth-grade pill, yet she created pills twice in a row.
Moreover, one time he was a fifth-grade alchemist, and the other time he was a sixth-grade pill refiner.
People privately teased the little girl.
"Next should be a seventh-grade elixir."
Even Lady Xingge has never created a seventh-grade elixir.
As for the power of Danjie, it is beyond human imagination.
Although this statement is mostly made in jest.
But who doesn't look forward to witnessing a miracle?
The number of people supporting her skyrocketed.
Ye Buxiu always managed to advance by sheer chance.
To outsiders, it was purely a matter of luck.
As for his ability, he has some, but he's not at the level to compete for a top-ten spot.
Therefore, I didn't have a high opinion of this young man.
This was actually part of Ye Buxiu's plan.
Ye Buxiu wanted to earn people's respect and convert it into a salary.
They must put on a show that stands out from the crowd.
But now, he fears that if he stands out too early, he will attract the attention of the Li family.
Then they gossiped in front of the king.
Given their influence, rumors about Ye Buxiu might have already spread before the competition even ended.
Upon closer reflection, wouldn't it be more captivating for the audience if the first two matches were unremarkable, followed by a strong performance in the final match?
This is what a dark horse should do.
Ye Buxiu had long since let go of his resentment.
Nothing was said that night.
the next day,
Today's match started a little later than yesterday's.
Moreover, the time has increased from four hours to ten hours.
Thirty people were evenly distributed across the large square.
On the throne, Li Gang was serving the king.
"My dear minister, who among these people do you think has the most potential?"
"Your Majesty, that alchemist named Jiu'er has overcome numerous obstacles and is very likely to win the crown."
Li Gang, being shrewd, quickly replied.
"If Your Majesty can retain this person, the Alchemist Association's popularity will surely skyrocket."
"Hmm, this girl is sure to achieve great things in the future, but have you noticed that boy?"
The king spoke, pointing to the leaf that was immortal.
Li Gang had already seen Ye Buxiu's portrait and had an impression of the young man.
Now that the king had singled him out, he didn't immediately understand what he meant.
"I have not heard of such a thing."
"It seems you've been quite busy lately. You should take some time to relax and learn more about what's going on outside."
The king said with a smile.
"I have high hopes for this young man."
"Since His Majesty has taken a liking to him, he must have extraordinary talent."
As Li Gang spoke, he looked down at the audience.
Seeing this, a man next to Ye Buxiu nodded slightly to Li Gang.
He had a magical treasure hidden in his storage ring.
This was the grand gift that Li Gang had instructed him to leave for Ye Buxiu.
He originally wanted Qian Fei to test Ye Buxiu, but he didn't expect that guy to be so useless.
So what if they lost the game? They actually went straight to Hu Gong and his group.
At this point, the only option was for him to personally send his trusted confidants to test the waters.
Li Hun was the person he sent.
His alchemy skills were quite good, and he was considered a key talent to be cultivated by the Li family.
However, his chances of making it into the top ten at this national competition are extremely slim.
This is a perfect opportunity to use him as a pawn to sabotage Ye Buxiu's alchemy furnace.
We'll see what he can do to deal with this accident.
Li Gang was calculating his options. If Ye Buxiu was really as powerful as the servants said, he naturally wouldn't provoke him. Otherwise, he would have no future.
Li Hun was tall and strong.
He was a full eighteen feet tall.
He looked down at Ye Buxiu.
"Kid, don't interfere with my alchemy later."
"Don't worry, just be careful with your movements."
Ye Buxiu never gave a kind look to those who spoke ill of him.
Everyone enters.
It just so happens that Jiu'er is sitting to Ye Buxiu's left.
"You didn't perform very well the first two times; your reputation might be overshadowed."
Jiu'er smiled casually.
"Hehe, watch me overtake you this time!"
"The loser treats you to dinner!"
"good."
The match begins.
The moment the referee's voice fell was the moment when everyone unleashed their spiritual power.
