Lv Heze understood the situation of the competition from Guye.
He looked at the young alchemist from the Derui Kingdom and frowned.
The alchemist seemed to have felt his gaze and met his eyes. Not only was he not afraid, he even raised his eyebrows provocatively, as if to say, "What can you do to me?"
Lv Heze narrowed his eyes as anger surged in his heart.
However, he knew that he could not kill this alchemist. If something happened to him, it would give the Derui Kingdom a better excuse to invade the Celestial Qilin Kingdom.
He would not do such a stupid thing.
"In the kingdom, only the Zhou family and the Heavenly Guards can compete with him in refining a third grade pill. Why is the Heavenly Guards not participating?"
Lv Heze was puzzled.
He looked at the bluestone platform and saw the kid that Lv Heze had mentioned standing at the Heavenly Guards' position.
"If he can't win, then no one in the kingdom can!"
Grandmaster Guye answered.
"Oh."
Lv Heze began to carefully size up Qin Yichen.
There was nothing special about this young man. His aura was not very strong either. He was only a peak Martial Master.
If there was anything that stood out about him … …
He was very confident!
Yes, he was confident.
Lv Heze saw a fearless, arrogant, and relaxed expression on his face. He did not seem nervous at all. It was as if he did not care about the other contestants!
As the ruler of a kingdom, Lv Heze had the ability to judge people.
He could tell that this temperament was not something that could be cultivated in a short period of time.
Who was not afraid? Even the Celestial Qilin King could not do that.
However, he did not see any fear in Qin Yichen's eyes. It was as if nothing could stop him.
"Next up is the last round of the competition."
After everything was ready, Grandmaster Guye stood up and announced, "Now, use the twenty herbs in front of you to refine a pill of your choice. Whoever has the best effect, the highest grade, and the highest quality will obtain a spot in the Pill Pagoda's test!"
Everyone's herbs were the same, exactly twenty types, no more, no less.
It was worth mentioning that these medicinal herbs were not the formula for some kind of pill. On the contrary, if these medicinal herbs were really gathered together, it was absolutely impossible to form a pill.
And now, what they needed to do was to combine a few of the herbs and refine them into pills.
This stage could be said to be difficult.
The first two tests were basic skills, but the last one tested one's creativity.
Compared to the other contestants who were frowning, Qin Yichen only needed to glance at the twenty herbs before he came up with a few combinations.
This time, he did not choose to keep a low profile.
While the man from the Derui Kingdom was still thinking hard, Qin Yichen had already started a fire.
Then, under everyone's astonished gazes, he directly threw 13 of the medicinal herbs into the pill furnace.
"Pa pa pa …"
Then, his palms turned into afterimages as he slapped the small pill furnace. The sounds seemed random, but there was an inexplicable rhythm to it. It did not sound messy at all.
Only Grandmaster Guye and Zhou Tianwei were looking at his palms.
"Playing to the gallery!"
Wang Muyu shouted coldly.
The young alchemist from the Derui Kingdom also cast his gaze over. Although he didn't say anything, from the look on his face, it could be seen that he was very disdainful of Qin Yichen's behavior.
Even Lv Heze, who was standing next to Grandmaster Guye, thought that he was being too careless and too rash.
However, just as they were still making all kinds of guesses or ridicule, Qin Yichen fiercely slapped his palm directly on the small elixir furnace …
"Bang!"
With a crisp sound, the furnace lid opened, and a pill flew out.
The entire process took less than three minutes!
The whole place was silent. It was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Everyone's mind could not react in a short period of time.
Even Grandmaster Guye would take more than ten minutes to refine the lowest grade pill.
In terms of time, Qin Yichen's performance was unparalleled.
Then, when everyone's eyes fell on the pill, they couldn't help but hold their breaths.
That pill was not only smooth, but it also had a bright luster and a medicinal fragrance … One look and one could tell that it was not an ordinary pill.
In terms of quality, it was definitely not inferior to the grade three pill refined by the alchemist from the Derui Kingdom.
That is to say, just now, within three minutes, Qin Yichen had refined a pill that exceeded the third grade!
Grade four pill!
Not to mention the grade of the pill, grade four pill was easier said than done!
There were no shortcuts in refining pills.
Only through years of accumulated experience could one perfectly condense the pill.
Even for the young genius alchemist from the Derui Kingdom, refining a grade three pill was already his limit.
Grade four?
Don't even think about it.
He wanted to question whether Qin Yichen had deliberately gone easy on him. Otherwise, how could he have refined the pill so quickly? He must have known the characteristics of these herbs and prepared them beforehand.
However, when he saw the grade four pill, he opened his mouth but realized that he was speechless.
Those could be manipulated for personal gain, but this grade four pill was undoubtedly refined in front of everyone.
Wang Muyu, on the other hand, was completely stunned.
He stood there in a daze, his eyes empty.
Obviously, he was unwilling to accept this fact.
He was the closest to Qin Yichen. Naturally, he could tell at a glance that it was a grade four pill. Moreover, it was the kind of pill with good quality.
Qin Yichen had casually refined this pill. He had not been serious at all.
At this moment, Wang Muyu seemed to understand why Qin Yichen did not care about his provocation.
Perhaps, in Qin Yichen's eyes, he was just a clown.
His complexion kept changing between green and white.
However, at this moment, no one was paying attention to him.
Not far away, the appraiser from the Alchemist Guild reacted and quickly came to Qin Yichen's side.
Then, when he took the pill from Qin Yichen, his eyes suddenly widened. He could not help but exclaim, "It's a grade two pill!"
"Wow! … "
This one sentence was like a huge rock being thrown into this quiet lake. Immediately, thousands of huge waves splashed out.
Everyone in the square was shocked.
Initially, most of them thought that it was just an ordinary pill.
Even Lv Heze thought so.
After all, Qin Yichen had only refined the pill for a short period of time …
The only person who knew that Qin Yichen had such a heaven-defying refining speed was Zhou Tianwei.
