The competition had officially begun.
There were more than ninety thousand people participating in the competition.
One had to admit that this number was not small.
Even Xiatian was stunned by this number. He had thought that with such a high threshold, there would not be many people who would sign up. However, there were still so many people.
More than ninety thousand people.
Ten million for each person.
A total of nine hundred billion!
The Jiuding Gate had made a big profit. There were only twenty people in the Jiuding Gate. Nine hundred billion low-grade spirit stones were enough for them to consume.
"The first round of the competition is to refine level five spirit pills, Wonder Immortal Pills. You have the materials in front of you. The first person to refine one hundred Wonder Immortal Pills will pass the first round of the competition. Remember, only one thousand people will remain in the first round." The host of the Jiuding Gate said loudly.
There were only 1,000 people left. When they heard this number, everyone present couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
It was clear that they were going to have a major change in personnel.
Leaving one thousand people out of ninety thousand people was equivalent to a ratio of one percent. This round could eliminate ninety percent of the people.
One had to admit that this method was too terrifying.
In fact, Xiatian did not know that the goal of many people here was not the first place. Instead, it was the top nine hundred. As long as they could enter the top nine hundred, it meant that their future was limitless.
Even those who could not enter the top nine hundred would be recruited by others. However, the price would be much lower. The price difference between the top nine hundred and the top nine hundred and one would be ten times.
Therefore, everyone here would not give up even if they knew that they would lose. Because maybe someone was watching them now. Maybe this person would be their lucky star.
"Now, I announce that the first round of the competition has officially begun!" The host of the Jiuding Gate said loudly.
Everyone started to get busy.
Five minutes later …
"I am done!" Pill Emperor was the first to finish. Moreover, he only used five minutes. Everyone was stunned when they saw this speed.
Pill Emperor was indeed the number one alchemist in the Lower Three Realms. He was so powerful. Suddenly, everyone looked at him with admiration.
The moment they saw that the Pill Sovereign was done, everyone turned to look at Xiatian.
Because Xiatian was the one who challenged the Dan Emperor, everyone wanted to see how long it would take for Xiatian to finish refining. However, no matter how long it would take for Xiatian to finish refining, he would not be as fast as the Dan Emperor, so everyone thought that Xiatian might really not have any ability.
When they saw Xiatian's actions, they were even more speechless.
Sleep.
Xiatian was actually lying there, fast asleep.
This didn't look like a competition at all.
Ten minutes later.
The second person finished concocting pills.
This person was also a super alchemy expert. He called himself the Pill Saint. He was the second place in the last hundred years competition. His strength was very strong. Today, he was also far ahead.
Eleven minutes later.
The third person finished refining. This person was a fatty. If Xiatian saw this fatty, he would definitely feel that he was very familiar. Of course, he couldn't be too familiar with his appearance. The most important thing was his temperament.
It was the temperament of the tattoo on this fatty's body.
Just like that, one pill after another was completed.
On the other hand, Xiatian was still lying there, fast asleep.
At this moment, everyone thought that Xiatian definitely didn't have any ability, so he was stalling for time, hoping to die a little later.
Xiatian's lofty image collapsed once again.
Some people just liked to belittle others. This way, they could show off how strong they were. When they saw Xiatian lying there, fast asleep, they all began to act as envoys of justice.
Even the contestant Shui Lingshan had already won, but Xiatian was still sleeping.
Time passed bit by bit. Five hours later, the 800th ranker had already appeared. The high ranking guards of Qi King City were all extremely anxious.
After all, Xiatian's image in their hearts was very high.
Just when everyone's hearts were in their throats, Xiatian slowly sat up: "Sorry, I've been too tired recently."
Just as he finished speaking, the materials in front of him flew up.
All the materials dissolved at the same time!
"En?" When Alchemy Emperor saw Xiatian's technique, his brows instantly furrowed!
Pu!
Three minutes later!
The pills were completed.
One hundred pills appeared at the same time. Xiatian only used three minutes to complete the task in one go.
"Three minutes, he actually only used three minutes. This is too terrifying."
"This can't be real, this can't be real. I must be dreaming. How can this be real? Isn't three minutes faster than Alchemy Emperor?"
"Normally, this amount of time isn't even enough to differentiate the materials. He must have cheated."
The surrounding people couldn't believe what they were seeing because they didn't want to believe it. They were more willing to see Xiatian fail and Xiatian die.
Because only then would it show that Xiatian was just bragging.
But the truth was …
Xiatian succeeded. He indeed only used three minutes to complete the refinement. Moreover, he refined a hundred pills in one go. No, there were more than a hundred pills.
His success rate could be said to be incomparably terrifying.
The top nine hundred were quickly selected and the day's competition came to an end. After the competition ended, all the big and small forces came forward to extend their olive branches.
Of course, no one dared to extend an olive branch to Xiatian because Xiatian was now the Deputy City Lord of Qi King City. He was second only to one person and above everyone else.
No matter how much they offered, it was absolutely impossible for them to compare to Xiatian's current status.
Moreover, no one dared to poach King Qi's people. If they angered King Qi, wouldn't they be annihilated?
The surrounding people were all chatting with each other. Even if they couldn't poach someone, they were still trying their best to communicate with them, hoping to leave a good impression. This way, they could get familiar with them in the future and it wouldn't be so troublesome to find someone to refine pills for them.
Alchemists had a very high status in the first place.
This was especially true for the alchemists here.
These nine hundred alchemists represented all the elite alchemists in the Lower Realm.
Jiuding Gate didn't have a place to accommodate so many people. Everyone found their own place to rest and a few people formed a circle to rest.
At this moment, in a small circle, the fatty who refined the third pill was surrounded by many big shots who were chatting with him.
"Father!!" At this moment, a fatty appeared in front of everyone. The fatty's face was very fat, but it was obvious that it wasn't because he was fat, but because he was beaten up.
"Son, how did you get beaten up like this?" Asked the third fastest alchemist in shock.
