Among the thousands of pill refiners, Mo Wuji was indeed inconspicuous. Even though his pill furnace was upgraded to a Grade 6 immortal equipment after its seals were repaired, it was still considered average amongst the pill refiners. Almost all of the 3000 participants here were Pill Kings.
Even though there were pitifully few Pill Emperors in the seven Immortal Domains and the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, there were many Pill Kings. Especially Tier 4 and Tier 5 Pill Kings, every Immortal Domain had a large number of them. This time, the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance had interfered in the Yong Ying Immortal Domain's Grand Alchemy Competition, so the quality of the participating Pill Kings had increased exponentially.
After another incense's time, Hu Zhenyu stood on the main altar and announced, "The first round of the competition has ended. All pill refiners, please place the jade vase containing your medicinal essences on the transfer array rune in front of you. The transfer array rune will send your purified medicinal essences directly into the appraisal array and the rankings will soon appear on the display screen. If you use old medicinal essences, you will not have any points and the appraisal array will directly eliminate you.
The display screen will start from the last name on the bottom right corner and after the rankings are displayed, please leave the competition area if you are ranked below 300 or if you don't have a ranking. "
After Hu Zhenyu finished speaking, a transfer array rune appeared in front of Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji placed the jade vase in his hand into the array rune and sighed in his heart. This method of using an array to appraise the grade of each person's medicinal essences and then give them points was indeed hard to cheat. Even the human factor was eliminated.
Mo Wuji was sure that there was a certain grade to this array. Once the medicinal essences of the immortal herbs were higher than a certain grade, it would be hard for an ordinary array to appraise it.
After all the pill refiners had transferred their jade vases away, a huge array display screen appeared at the corner of the main altar.
The array display screen had four sides so no matter where you sat, you would be able to see the contents of the array display screen clearly.
At this instant, the plaza of Yong Ying Immortal Domain was completely silent. Everyone's eyes landed on the huge array display screen as they waited for the rankings to appear.
After another half an incense's time, the array display screen started to flash with light. All the cultivators present knew that the rankings were about to appear.
The participating cultivators stared at the display screen anxiously because this would determine if they were qualified to enter the Yunxian Immortal Valley. The Pill Kings who came here to compete were basically here for the Yunxian Immortal Valley. Even if he couldn't enter the Yunxian Immortal Valley, as long as he was able to obtain a placing, he would be able to obtain a large amount of high tiered immortal herbs.
After the light flickered several times, the array display screen completely lit up, and a name appeared in the lower right corner. There was no ranking in front of this name, so it was obvious that he had not obtained any results. Behind the name, there were two red words "eliminated".
When this name appeared, one of the participating alchemists also walked out of the competition area dejectedly.
There were only two reasons for not getting a ranking. One was that the purification had failed, and the other was that they had cheated by not purifying it on the spot. Instead, they had replaced it with a purified medicinal liquid. That was cheating.
It wasn't just one participating alchemist who didn't have a ranking. The names of these alchemists who didn't have a ranking and were eliminated jumped more than 200 times. Only after more than 200 names had appeared did the first ranking appear.
34th place: Participating Immortal City, Low Grade City, Hai Lan Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Yu Jinsong. Points: 32.102, eliminated.
The moment this ranking appeared, Mo Wuji heard a pill refiner beside him sigh, then he walked off the stage.
Mo Wuji knew that this was definitely not a normal score; it was definitely caused by a failure in the purification. 32.102 points was a total of 32.102 points. According to the percentage, the purity was 32.102%.
After he was done with the purification, he took a slight look at his surroundings. Even though he didn't observe Yu Jinsong's purification, he knew that he should be a Tier 4 Pill King.
Even the worst Tier 4 Pill King, no matter how hard it was to purify the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass, he shouldn't have only obtained 32.102 points. This Yu Jinsong must have been mentally unbalanced, which resulted in the purification failure.
34th place: Participating Immortal City, Intermediate Grade City, Dancing Dragon Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Ling Ou. Points: 36.915, eliminated.
When this name came out, Mo Wuji heard a wave of discussion from the crowd. Even though it was just a random discussion, Mo Wuji could hear it. Ling Ou was actually a Tier 6 Pill King of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. A Tier 6 Pill King only obtained 36.915 points from the purification of the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass. From the looks of it, this Ling Ou was the same as Yu Jinsong; he also failed his purification.
Following which, Mo Wuji saw a middle-aged pill refiner walk off the stage with a face full of disappointment. Mo Wuji guessed that this person should be Ling Ou.
Looking at this pill refiner's dejected look, Mo Wuji knew that this pill competition would deal an immeasurable blow to his Pill Dao in the future. He was afraid that he would only be a Tier 6 Pill King for the rest of his life. If he was lucky, he might be able to barely concoct Tier 6 immortal pills. If he was unlucky, he might even drop to a Tier 5 Pill King. As for Pill Emperor, he could forget about it in this lifetime. Unless he could unravel the knot in his heart, and get rid of this trauma.
Thereafter, the points gradually increased. Mo Wuji was clear that as long as the pill refiner didn't exceed 60 points, they were basically all pill refiners who failed their purification.
Not far away from Mo Wuji, Tan Liang was also staring nervously at the huge array display screen. He knew that it would be hard for him to enter the top 1000, but he still had some hope. This was because during the purification process, he didn't fail at all. Moreover, he had exceeded his usual standards in this purification. Even under normal circumstances, he might not have been able to purify the Tier 4 Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass to such an extent.
When he saw his name appear, his heart turned completely cold.
On the display screen, it was clearly written, "Place 2315: Low grade Immortal City, Water Ying Immortal City. Participating Pill Refiner Tan Liang. Points: 75.209. Eliminated.
To be able to purify the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass to above 75% under this kind of earth fire was indeed beyond his usual standards. Unfortunately, in such a high level alchemy competition, his results were simply not enough.
…
"Ai, Brother Tan failed." Seeing Tan Liang walk off the stage dejectedly, Wen Hou's eyes were filled with even more disappointment and helplessness than Tan Liang. There was a hint of grey at the corner of his eyes. Even though he had guessed the result, when it really happened, he found that he was still unable to accept it.
At this instant, other than bringing his family to the ends of the world, what else could he do?
However, he knew that he wouldn't be able to leave. The moment he stepped out of Yong Ying Immortal City, he would probably be captured and sent to Yong Ying Immortal Domain's prison.
"I'm sorry Wen Hou, I failed." Tan Liang walked to the side of Wen Hou's family and sat down. His voice was filled with disappointment and sadness.
Yan Qianling suddenly said, "Husband, we can't leave at all. I can faintly feel that there's a spiritual will watching us. The moment we leave, I'm afraid that the consequences would be unimaginable. "
Wen Hou nodded his head blankly and didn't say a word.
Wen Lianxi suddenly said, "Father, Mother, Uncle Tan, there's still one of us who hasn't come down yet. Perhaps Brother Mo might really be able to charge into the top 500."
It was only after Wen Lianxi's words that everyone remembered that Water Ying Immortal City wasn't completely hopeless. At least there was still one more pill refiner on the stage.
Tan Liang regained some of his vigor as he asked anxiously, "Lianxi, is that Pill Master Mo really still there? Where is he? Hurry and let me take a look. "
Wen Lianxi whispered to Tan Liang about Mo Wuji's position. Indeed, Tan Liang saw Mo Wuji still standing on the stage. Moreover, Mo Wuji's name wasn't displayed on the display screen.
The display screen displayed the names from the back to the front. The later the name was displayed, the better the result. Mo Wuji's name wasn't reported yet. This meant that Mo Wuji had yet to be eliminated.
"It seems like he really advanced to the Pill King Stage. Could it be that his 70% confidence was true?" Tan Liang stared at Mo Wuji and muttered to himself.
Yan Qianling whispered to Wen Lianxi's ear, "Lianxi, does that Mo Wuji really not have any special feelings for you? For example, when he's with you, does he always subconsciously want to get closer to you? Also, does he sometimes want to find something in common to start a new topic? Oh right, did he invite you? "
"Mother, can you stop talking about these things? Brother Mo really has no interest in me. He only wanted to thank me for helping him once. That's all, "Wen Lianxi didn't know what else to say.
"Ai, Lianxi, you can't always wait for others to take the initiative. Sometimes, when you see someone you like, you should take the initiative too …"
No matter how thick Wen Lianxi's skin was, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Moreover, Wen Lianxi's skin was extremely thin.
Seeing that her daughter couldn't help but feel embarrassed, Yan Qianling finally ended the topic. However, her gaze landed on Mo Wuji. As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him. Even though Mo Wuji wasn't Yan Qianling's son-in-law yet, Yan Qianling was already liking him more and more.
"Father, that Tier 5 Pill King Geng Ji, I don't know where he got a slot to participate in the competition but he failed. It's only around 1,700. Fortunately, Father didn't invite them to participate. " After a while, Wen Lianxi regained her composure. She immediately realised that Geng Ji was eliminated from the competition.
Wen Hou nodded, "I saw it. You're right. We are indeed lucky that we didn't invite them to participate."
To Water Ying Immortal City, there was no difference between 1000 and 2000 placings.
…
There were fewer and fewer people on the stage. Even though he knew that his results wouldn't be too bad, Mo Wuji was still getting more and more nervous. This alchemy competition was too important to him.
