Mo Wuji was clear that he had to obtain a high score in the first round. The second round should be a pill concoction competition. If he couldn't even concoct an intermediate Tier 6 immortal pill, he would definitely pull down his score in the first round. If his score in the first round was too low, it was very likely that he would be eliminated in the second round.
Mo Wuji saw that the 300th place had already appeared on the display screen. Participating Immortal City, Intermediate Grade City, Wind Plains Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Ma Dian. Score: 90.11 points, advanced to the second round.
Mo Wuji was secretly glad that he had his own unique method of purifying spiritual herbs, otherwise he would have been eliminated in the first round.
As a pill refiner, Mo Wuji was very clear that being able to purify the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass to more than 90% was already quite impressive. Even though the difficulty of purifying the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass couldn't be compared to the Heavenly Desolate Grass, it was still famous for its difficulty of purifying Tier 7 and below immortal herbs. Many Tier 6 immortal herbs were far less difficult to purify than the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass.
But now, those who had purified more than 90% of their essence had almost been eliminated. Even though he wasn't eliminated, he was ranked 300th and was on the verge of being eliminated.
"Father, Big Brother Mo's name hasn't appeared yet. This means that our Water Ying Immortal City managed to enter the top 300 in the first round. Even if we are unable to participate in the second round, this ranking could still help us maintain our low grade immortal city status," Seeing the 300th name appear, Wen Lianxi, who was seated below, was so excited that she almost stood up.
She was equally worried about Water Ying Immortal City's results.
Wen Hou clenched his fists tightly and his expression was even more agitated than his daughter Wen Lianxi.
If not for the fact that he knew that Mo Wuji's name wasn't announced, and that the number of people on the stage was the same as the announced placings, he would have suspected that it was fake.
"Impressive, indeed impressive. I was not wrong, this person's future is completely unpredictable …" Tan Liang muttered to himself as he stared at Mo Wuji on the stage.
"Uncle Tan, do you think Brother Mo can enter the top 50?" Wen Lianxi subconsciously clenched her fists tightly. Even though she wanted to slow down her tone, the moment she spoke, she could no longer conceal her agitation.
Tan Liang took a deep breath, "I'm afraid it will be very difficult to enter the top 50, or even if I enter the top 50, I won't be able to obtain the final ranking. Because the second round was alchemy, alchemy and purification of medicinal liquid essence were two different things. If a low level alchemist was very talented, then he could purify a very high purity medicinal liquid essence. However, no matter how lucky a low-level alchemist was, they would not be able to concoct a high-level Immortal Pill. This could not be faked, nor could it be explained with luck.
Your friend was able to purify the essence of the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass to more than 90%, which is already very, very impressive. I can't compare to him. Even in the future, it was not impossible for him to surpass ordinary Pill Emperors. Do you know that Alchemist Ma Dian who obtained 300th place just now? He's a Tier 6 Pill King, and he's one of the best amongst Tier 6 Pill Kings. "
Wen Hou glanced at his daughter who was conversing with Tan Liang and had the same thought as his wife. If he could make this Mo Wuji his son-in-law, what would happen?
The array monitor screen had already shown the 294th place: Participating Immortal City, Low Grade Immortal City, Thunder River Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Fei Yuan. Score: 90.216, advanced to the second round.
293: Participating Immortal City, High Grade City, Lu Yun Immortal City. Participating Pill Refiner, Gong Ke. Points: 90.219. Advanced to the second round.
…
From the 2000s onwards, the difference between the two placings was extremely small. Even those who weren't pill refiners knew that this was very normal. In the purification of immortal herbs, it was extremely difficult to raise the purity by even a little bit. From 90% to 91%, some pill refiners might not be able to cross that gap in their entire lives. Sometimes, this kind of purification couldn't be improved with practice.
There were only 300 pill refiners on the competition stage. Some of the pill refiners who advanced to the second round relaxed and started to size up the other pill refiners around them.
Usually, the pill refiners who could make it to the last 300 were the cream of the crop. These pill refiners all knew each other.
Mo Wuji's unfamiliar and young face instantly attracted the attention of those pill refiners who were no longer feeling pressured. Who was this person? He was so young, but he was actually in the top 300?
These pill refiners started to search for Mo Wuji's name on the array monitor screen. However, no matter how they searched, they could only find a few familiar names.
The array monitor screen had already shown the 120th place: Participating Immortal City, Intermediate Grade City, True Cliff Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Ao Xilun. Score: 91.051. Advanced to the second round.
The 120th place had already appeared, but there were still no unfamiliar names. Many of the pill refiners on the stage started to discuss. Who exactly was Mo Wuji? Could he enter the top 120?
When Mo Wuji saw the 120th place, he recalled that he was familiar with this immortal city. There was a young castellan called Zhong Zhen, who he had met once in the Lifeless Secret Domain. This person wasn't bad; he even helped him once. Seeing that True Cliff Immortal City reached the 120th place in the first round, Mo Wuji was happy for Zhong Zhen.
The array monitor screen continued to show the 51st place. Participating Immortal City, High Grade City, Lu Jie Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Yuan Feng. Score: 91.671. Advanced to the second round.
…
11th place: Participating Immortal City, High Grade City, Sea Canopy Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Chai Xiao. Score: 91.899. Advanced to the second round.
Sea Canopy Immortal City, another familiar immortal city. Mo Wuji recognised Sea Canopy Immortal City's young castellan, Zuo Yixian. Zuo Yixian was a rather good person. This time, Sea Canopy Immortal City even obtained 11th place in the first round. As long as Zuo Yixian returned from the Broken World, he would definitely come to Sea Canopy Immortal City. After this alchemy competition, Mo Wuji could pay him a visit.
The array monitor screen had already shown the 7th place. Participating Immortal City, High Grade City, Ping Yi Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Liu Yao. Score: 92.32. Advanced to the second round.
6th place: Participating Immortal City, Intermediate Grade City, Scarlet Emperor Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Fei Yan. Score: 92.301. Advanced to the second round.
5th place: Participating Immortal City, High Grade City, Bai Ding Immortal City. Participating alchemist, Kuang Zhiyao. Score: 92.41. Advanced to the second round.
…
At this point in time, whether it was the pill refiners on the stage or the spectators, everyone could no longer hold back their discussions.
Almost all the spectators who didn't know Mo Wuji had their gazes on Mo Wuji. This was because they knew the background of the 5th place. Kuang Zhiyao was a half-step Pill Emperor of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. In a place where almost all the experts in the Pill Dao of the entire Immortal World gathered, it wasn't strange for a half-step Pill Emperor to obtain the 5th place. What made the crowd curious was that the name of Mo Wuji that they didn't know had yet to be revealed. Could this ridiculously young fella be an existence in the top 4?
"Who is this person? Could he be in the top 4? Surpassing Senior Kuang? "
"Could there be a problem with the array monitor screen? Or could there be a problem with the appraisal array? "
Some of the eliminated pill refiners stood up agitatedly. If there was a problem with the appraisal array, it would mean that the first round would be voided and everyone would have to compete again.
There was no need to talk about those pill refiners, even the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance's Vice Alliance Head Hu Zhenyu stared at Mo Wuji in astonishment. He didn't recognise Mo Wuji, but at the same time, he knew that Mo Wuji's name hadn't been revealed.
As for the array monitor screen, he knew that there definitely wouldn't be a problem.
"Father, could there be a problem? That Big Brother Mo's name still hasn't been revealed, "If Wen Lianxi was previously surprised, then she was now panicking.
Wen Hou was also at a loss because he didn't believe that Mo Wuji's ranking was better than the famous half-step Pill Emperor Kuang Zhiyao.
Tan Liang stared at the huge display screen and hesitated before saying, "That might not be the case. You must know that when this Master Mo purified a Tier 8 spiritual herb, its essence was already 100% …"
Tan Liang directly raised Mo Wuji's level to Master Mo.
"But that was a Tier 8 spiritual herb, something from the cultivation world. Now, he purified the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass which is extremely hard to purify even in the Immortal World … "
Wen Hou's words stopped because the 4th place was revealed.
4th place: Participating Immortal City, Intermediate Grade City, Saint Glass Immortal City Participating Pill Refiner, Wu Yunsheng. Points: 96009. Advanced to the second round.
The moment this ranking was revealed, the entire crowd went into an uproar.
There was a qualitative leap between the 4th and 5th place. The 5th place Kuang Zhiyao only had slightly over 92 points while the 4th place Wu Yunsheng had over 96 points.
One must know that in the purification of medicinal essences, every increase in points was an extremely difficult task, not to mention an increase of nearly 4 points at once. Moreover, the higher the purity, the harder it was to increase.
However, no one felt that there was a problem with this because Wu Yunsheng was a true Pill Emperor and one of the few Pill Emperors that didn't belong to the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance.
Even though Kuang Zhiyao was a half-step Pill Emperor, he was still far from a true Pill Emperor.
"Surpassed a Pill Emperor, he actually surpassed a Pill Emperor …"
Because of the rumours, even those who didn't know Mo Wuji knew that there was a young pill refiner in the competition area whose name had yet to appear on the display screen. How could the crowd not pay attention to Mo Wuji when such an extraordinary situation occurred?
Even though all eyes were on him, Mo Wuji's expression was normal because he wasn't afraid at all. So what if it was difficult to purify the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass? He had used all his abilities in this competition. If not for the fire restriction in the Yong Ying Immortal Domain, he would have even taken out his Scholar's Heart to purify the medicinal essences.
3rd Place: Participating Immortal City, High Grade City, Lu Jie Immortal City Participating Pill Refiner, Heng Jun. Points: 96163. Advanced to the second round.
Heng Jun was also a Pill Emperor but Heng Jun was a Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Pill Emperor. At this moment, everyone was numb. An unknown young man had actually surpassed two Pill Emperors. Furthermore, there were only two names that had yet to be announced. One was this young man and the other was another Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Pill Emperor, Gong Yangxue.
No one believed that Mo Wuji could really enter the top 2. Perhaps in the hearts of the cultivators, they were thinking about how the host of the competition would clean up this mess.
(Today's update will end here. Good night friends! I hope for more monthly votes and recommendation votes, Old Five.)
