In the afternoon, the results of the previous day's competition came out.
As expected, Sima Youyue was at the top of the list, leaving the second place far behind. The results at the back were all very close.
Mao San Quan and the others were very happy when they heard the results. With her results, not to mention entering the top 100, the first place would definitely belong to her! The academy could finally hold its head high this time!
Sima Youyue did not react to the result. She only said, "There are still a few rounds left. It's not too late to celebrate at the end."
She took out Sima Liu Xuan's life jade. Thinking of him who was nowhere to be found, she couldn't feel happy.
This time, she was so high-profile and worked so hard because she wanted him to be proud of having such a daughter. However, he couldn't see it with his own eyes.
She wanted to look for them, but she couldn't. All she could do now was cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate again!
When her strength increased, she would be able to look for him. Then, she would be able to find out about her mother.
Now that the establishment of the organization was on the right track, there was no need for her to manage the subsequent operations. Thinking about the pressure on her, she felt that after this competition, she needed to go into seclusion for a period of time to improve her strength.
The next day, the second round of the competition officially began. The number of participants was less than half of the previous day.
"For today's competition, you'll be refining three types of pills that you're good at. Prepare your own ingredients. The final evaluation will still be based on the grade, time, quantity, and so on. Good luck to everyone. "
Everyone already knew what this level was, so they had prepared enough medicinal herbs in their spatial containers. When Ji Qingyuan made the announcement, they immediately took out the medicinal herbs and began to refine the medicinal pills that they were adept at.
Today's time was significantly less than yesterday's, and there was almost no sign of furnace explosions. Everyone was able to complete the refinement at the last minute. For a freak like Sima Youyue, she took two-thirds of the time to complete the refinement.
The final results would only be announced the next afternoon. When Sima Youyue ranked first again, everyone was not as surprised as they were the day before.
This time, a few hundred names were directly eliminated. Only the top 100 could advance to the next round of the competition.
In the third round, there were only a hundred contestants left in the second group. Perhaps the later rounds were more exciting, so from the third round onwards, the two groups no longer competed together. Instead, the time was staggered by a day so that everyone could watch it every day.
"I didn't expect you to be so good at refining pills. But sometimes, even a blind cat meets a dead mouse, right?" Gu Xi Ping passed by Youyue's back.
Sima Youyue acted as if she didn't hear him and lowered her head to fiddle with her fingernails's nails …
There was no need to care about this kind of person.
Gu Xi's's displeasure, Sima's's's's's, Sima ''s's's's..
The third round of the competition was to refine the required pills, but this time it was different from the first round. The pills were still considered common, but the refining process gradually became more difficult.
...................................
There were three sets of herbs on each table, which meant that each person had three chances. If they used up all three chances, it would be equivalent to being eliminated directly.
After Ji Qing Yuan announced the start of the competition, the contestants picked up the pill recipe and started to study it. Some of them looked happy because they had seen this pill recipe before. They immediately started to refine it.
Xia Chang Tian and Zhao Xiang Qi had expected this to happen. It was impossible that everyone had never seen this pill recipe before. In order to be fair, they made some changes to the recipe. They changed a few of the ingredients and the refining process was different.
"Peng-"
The sound of the furnace exploding shocked everyone. They all looked over.
Seeing others fail, many of them laughed at their misfortune.
Sima Youyue only took one look and retracted her attention. She continued to study the pill recipe in her hand.
She had seen this pill recipe before. But she noticed that there were a few changes in it. She didn't rush to refine it. She decided to study it carefully first.
After an hour, many of the contestants started to refine their pills. Sima Youyue also started to check her ingredients.
"Peng-"
Another furnace exploded.
"Peng-"
"Peng-"
The sound of the furnaces exploding was heard one after another. The other contestants started to panic and became more careful.
After Sima Youyue checked her ingredients, she took a deep breath and started to refine them.
"Peng-"
"Peng-"
Sima Youyue heard the sounds of furnaces exploding around her. But it didn't affect her. However, during the fusion process, she made a mistake in the timing of two of the ingredients. This caused the medicinal effects to clash. Like the others, her furnace also exploded.
She was different from the others. She didn't throw away the dregs immediately. Instead, she took it out and studied it for a while. Then, she picked up the pill recipe and looked at it for a while.
This time, her refining went quite smoothly. She took note of all the important points. When it came to the point where the furnace exploded, she was especially careful. Although there was a collision sound in the alchemy furnace, fortunately, there was no danger. The medicinal liquid inside bounced a few times and then quieted down.
After the medicinal liquid was completely fused, the pill condensation was no longer a problem for her.
Very quickly, a faint medicinal fragrance wafted out from the furnace, indicating that the pill condensation was successful.
She kept the pill into a jade bottle. Immediately, someone came forward to tabulate the results. When they came down, they realised that she wasn't the first to complete the refinement. Not long after, someone else also succeeded.
What surprised her was that Gu Xiping was also the first to complete his refinement. She thought that people like him who liked to provoke others were brainless. She didn't expect him to have some skills.
The top ten contestants would be selected for the final round. Sima Youyue looked at the contestants and roughly predicted who would advance.
On the second day, the second group rested and waited for yesterday's results. The first group continued their competition.
Sima Youyue moved from the contestants' resting area to the spectator's stand. Her position was different, so she could see from a different angle.
A man sat next to her.
Sima Youyue glanced at him and said, "Why are you here? Aren't you afraid that someone will kill you? "
Shi Qian Zhi opened his fan and waved it, saying, "If I'm afraid, I'm not Shi Qian Zhi."
"Blindly arrogant." Sima Youyue said faintly, "That's him, right? Didn't he sneak into the Jiang family? Why did he come to participate in the competition like this? "
"Weren't you the one who said that it's better to embarrass yourself in front of everyone than to lose on purpose?" Shi Qian Zhi retorted.
Sima Youyue was stunned. She had said that before, but she said it to Han Miao Shuang and the others. Thinking about it carefully, it was probably because he saw the shape of her mouth and knew what she said, so he changed his mind.
