The surrounding discussions naturally couldn't escape Chen Qiang's spiritual perception.
However, he wasn't going to bother with those meaningless things.
After getting on the stage, Principal Qi and Liu Qingyun called him to the side and whispered, "Chen Qiang, why did you come to the Pill Department to participate in the assessment?"
Chen Qiang spread out his hands, "Principal, you only asked me to participate in the inner sect assessment, but you didn't ask me to take part in any subject.
Moreover, my family's Young Miss is applying for the Pill Department's inner sect, so of course I have to follow. "
"But … but are you confident you can pass the Pill Department's inner sect assessment?
Although the Grand Elder and I strongly hope that you can enter the inner sect, if you can't pass the Pill Department's inner sect assessment, Elder Sun Tao won't accept you.
With so many people watching, it's not good for us to talk! "
Chen Qiang asked back, "I heard that the minimum requirement for the Pill Department's inner sect assessment is to be able to refine a grade one pill. Isn't that enough?"
"You mean, you can refine a first-grade medicinal pill?"
Chen Qiang shrugged his shoulders in boredom, "Why don't you give it a try?"
Their conversation was heard by Elder Sun Tao, who was standing at the side. Hearing this, he said seriously, "Chen Qiang, right? Let this old man remind you in advance that if you can't pass the assessment, this old man won't care about the Principal's face.
After all, the Pill Department's assessment is decided by this old man. "
Chen Qiang nodded, "Don't worry, if this disciple can't pass the assessment, I won't shamelessly request to enter the inner sect."
Liu Qingyun wanted to say something, but Principal Qi waved her hand and said, "Alright, let's leave it at that for now. If it's really not possible, we'll find another opportunity to talk about it."
After Chen Qiang returned to the center of the Martial Arts Practice Field, Sun Tao continued, "Today, our Pill Department's inner sect assessment will still be the same as before. Anyone who can refine a grade one pill independently or control the intensity of the flame from five meters away will be directly accepted into the inner sect and become an official disciple."
Of the two conditions mentioned by Elder Sun Tao, basically everyone would choose the first one, which was to refine a Grade 1 pill.
And to be able to control the intensity of the flames at will from five meters away, his mental strength had already reached an extremely terrifying level. For refining pills, it was naturally twice the result with half the effort.
And for this time's Inner Sect Assessment, Elder Sun Tao had long heard that there was an Outer Sect Disciple called Yan Xue who had outstanding mental strength.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to see if Yan Xue was as powerful as the rumors said.
Glancing at the fifteen outer sect disciples who were ready, Elder Sun Tao pointed to the left and said, "Disciples who choose to refine first-grade pills, come here. Choose to control the intensity of the flame and stay where you are."
As soon as he finished speaking, the fifteen of them simultaneously walked to the left.
Seeing this, Elder Sun Tao was stunned.
Could it be that Yan Xue, who had just entered the sect for three months, was already able to refine pills independently?
It was no wonder.
If she really had such strong mental strength, learning alchemy was just a matter of time.
Thinking of this, Elder Sun Tao instructed the disciples to place fifteen crude tables in the middle of the Martial Arts Practice Field. On each table was a small pill furnace. As for the medicinal ingredients needed to refine pills, the Dao College would be responsible for providing.
Yan Xue and Chen Qiang both chose the common healing pill.
In any case, as long as it was a Grade 1 pill, it was fine. There was no rule on what kind of pill it was.
"Glasses, didn't you say that Yan Xue didn't even recognize the most common flower?"
Seeing that the disciples present had started to refine pills, an Inner Sect Disciple of the Pill Department looked at the glasses man with an unfriendly expression.
The glasses man was also stunned at this moment.
He clearly remembered that Yan Xue didn't recognize a single one of the three herbs he had given her!
Could it be that this Yan Xue was really a genius in alchemy? In just three months, she had improved so quickly?
If that was really the case, then these Inner Sect Disciples of the Pill Department wouldn't have good days in the future.
Although Pill Dao disciples had always been popular, the degree of popularity that an extremely outstanding disciple received would definitely make others green with envy.
Even the Dao College would give Yan Xue a large amount of resources.
At that time, would these disciples still have a chance to shine?
Also, Yan Xue would directly become their strongest competitor in the Pill Department of the Sky Pillar Dao College in Zhong Zhou half a year later!
In just a short period of time, these Inner Sect Disciples of the Pill Department had a great change in temperament.
Previously, they were still excited to have such a beautiful Junior Sister. In the blink of an eye, when they looked at Yan Xue again, she was already a stumbling block in the future!
However, other than the Pill Department disciples, there were also a large number of disciples from the Warrior Department, Weapon Department, and a small number of disciples from the Blood Puppet Department.
The disciples from the other three departments looked at Yan Xue and Mei Xin with passionate gazes. Occasionally, they would compare the two girls and comment on them.
There were even some extremely arrogant disciples who had already set the two girls as their future targets in advance.
Although Yan Xue, who was refining pills, didn't care about the opinions of the surrounding disciples, her strong mental strength took in all the vulgar comments of those people.
"Damn a bunch of bastards!"
Yan Xue looked around and scolded softly with a cold expression.
However, in the process of refining pills, the worst thing to do was to lose one's mental strength. Just like that, the medicinal liquid in Yan Xue's furnace that hadn't completely melted suddenly flashed.
Yan Xue, who realized that she might have made a mistake, hurriedly came back to her senses.
Fortunately, the flame only flashed for a moment before it calmed down again.
Yan Xue turned her head and glanced at Chen Qiang, who wasn't far from her. She knew that if it wasn't for Chen Qiang's timely intervention, this furnace of pills might have been completely wasted.
On the high platform, Elder Sun Tao's body hadn't moved, but his mental strength was patrolling the pill furnaces of the other disciples. Naturally, he also noticed the changes in Yan Xue's furnace.
Among the fifteen disciples, it could be said that Elder Sun Tao paid the most attention to Yan Xue and Chen Qiang.
Yan Xue didn't choose the test of controlling the flames, so he couldn't interfere.
However, when he saw that Yan Xue almost failed, he had already decided that if Yan Xue really failed, he would give her a chance to try controlling the intensity of the flames with his status as an inner sect elder of the Pill Department.
However, what he didn't expect was that just as the furnace of pills in front of Yan Xue was about to be destroyed, the flames in the furnace actually returned to normal and were even smoother than before.
That definitely wasn't done by Yan Xue herself!
Through careful observation, Elder Sun Tao noticed that after the situation in the furnace stabilized, Yan Xue turned her head and looked at Chen Qiang who was beside her!
She even revealed a look of gratitude!
Could it be … that the person who helped Yan Xue just now was Chen Qiang?!
