Tang Rou asked doubtfully, "Oh right, didn't you say that there are a total of 1000 teams participating in the qualifiers? I saw that there are only around 200 teams here. Where are the others? "
Hmm?
After hearing Tang Rou's words, Chu Chen also looked around and was stunned. There were indeed only around 200 teams in this black square. Where were the others?
Just as he was feeling doubtful, an extremely cold and emotionless female voice suddenly sounded in the air, "Welcome to the Palace of Ancient Medicine. There will be three rounds of assessment in this Intermediate Medicine Competition. More than half of the teams will be eliminated in each round. I wish everyone good luck."
Wh … What? More than half of the teams will be eliminated in each round?
Hearing such a cruel elimination system, many of the students' pupils instantly constricted and they almost screamed on the spot.
More than half of the teams would be eliminated in each round. This was a strong motivation for all the students. ,
Immediately, all the students held their breaths and listened carefully. After all, this was related to their future. No one wanted to be eliminated because they didn't hear the rules clearly.
"First of all, let me introduce the rules of the first round of the competition. Everyone should have seen that there are many ancient herbs in the ruins. However, these ancient herbs are all sealed with ancient restrictions. With your current strength, you won't be able to break these restrictions."
"Therefore, every team will receive an ancient medicine crystal token before the competition starts. When the first round of assessment ends, you can use the ancient medicine crystal token in your hands to exchange for a mature ancient medicine!"
Hmm?
After hearing this, a strong sense of surprise appeared on the faces of all the students. Ancient medicine, this was a spirit medicine that could only exist in the ancient era!
Although it was impossible for every ancient medicine to have the heaven-defying effect of 'Tyrannical Willow', its medicinal effects were definitely more miraculous than the current spirit medicines.
This was purely a product that only existed in legends. Being able to obtain one was already a heaven-defying fortune. In this world, only the Medicine Palace had the ability to take out such an ancient medicine as a reward.
Under everyone's surprised gazes, the cold female voice sounded in the air again.
"Therefore, please take good care of the ancient medicine crystal plates in your hands. The first round of the examination requires you to gather at least five ancient medicines required to refine one ancient pill. In other words, other than taking good care of the ancient medicine crystal plates in your hands, you will need another four ancient medicine crystal plates to refine one ancient pill. So … go and snatch. Snatch the ancient medicine tokens from the other small teams, and then protect your own ancient medicine token!! "
Once these words were spoken, the entire plaza immediately went into an uproar. No one had expected that the first round of the examination would actually be so tragic. This was practically equivalent to a chaotic battle between numerous students!
This kind of situation wasn't strange to the senior students who had participated in the alchemy competition before. However, it was unacceptable to the new students.
"You want us to fight in the first round? Are you kidding me? How can you play like this?! "
"Since it's the Alchemy Competition, shouldn't it focus on alchemy? Why did they use such a method in the first round!! We are apothecaries, not warriors. What's the point of a pure battle? "
"It's obvious that they're trying to deceive us new students. Who set this stupid rule? Are we here to learn how to fight or to learn how to refine medicine?!"
… …
Angry curses resounded throughout the plaza. To be honest, many people couldn't accept this kind of method. After all, as an apothecary, the most important thing was to refine medicine. In the first round, they had to compete with their strength. This really went against the original intention of the apothecary path.
However, amidst the angry curses of the crowd, a senior from the Heavenly Court who wasn't far from Chu Chen's group calmly waved his hand at the agitated students.
"Everyone, stop arguing. In the end, the world of apothecaries is still based on strength. Depending on the realm of your cultivation, you can only refine pills of that realm. No matter where you are, the weak are at the bottom of the food chain. They don't have any right to speak … Accept your fate. If you have the energy to curse, why don't you think about how to protect your ancient medicine tokens? "
At this moment, the woman's voice rang out again. "All participating teams can use any method to snatch the ancient medicine tokens of other teams. The only thing they can't do is kill. If someone kills during the snatching process, then they will completely lose their qualifications to participate in this alchemy competition. In serious cases, they will even be judged by the Judgement Hall … Please remember this clearly. "
"There are more and more of these lousy rules!!"
After hearing the icy woman's words, a few of the new students who weren't far from Chu Chen started to complain loudly. "It's said that swords have no eyes. Since they want us to snatch the ancient medicine tokens, then they restrict us from killing people! What if we accidentally slip up during the snatching process? Don't tell me that when we meet other strong teams, we can only obediently hand over the ancient medicine tokens? When a real fight breaks out, who can control themselves from being heavy-handed?? "
Amidst the complaints of the crowd, the icy woman's voice rang out again. "Lastly, a reminder to everyone: If your team's ancient medicine token is snatched by someone else, then you will have twelve hours to snatch it back. If you still haven't snatched back your medicine token after twelve hours, then your team will receive another new pill formula. The new pill formula is a difficult grade ancient medicine pill formula. Every pill formula requires at least ten types of ancient medicine! You have to collect these ten tablets within twenty-four hours. Otherwise, you'll be eliminated as well! "
"How can it be like this! If that's the case, then once the medicine tokens are snatched away, we're done for. To snatch ten specific medicine tokens within twelve hours, this is simply inhumane. Why don't we just get eliminated!! "
Amidst the ear-piercing howls, the icy woman's voice rang out again.
"The time limit for the first round is seven days. That is to say, if you can't gather five ancient medicine tokens within seven days, you will be eliminated immediately. In this competition, one thousand teams are scattered all over the ruins. I hope that everyone can find their targets in the shortest time possible. "
