As soon as Lin Long placed the Cordyceps Grass in, the originally calm green solution began to churn violently. Not only that, but the originally green solution also turned black like stagnant water in a few breaths' time.
At this moment, the boiling solution finally calmed down. Seeing the change in the green solution, everyone present was dumbstruck.
They knew that the medicinal properties of the Cordyceps Grass were very mild. It would definitely not cause such a change in the originally calm green solution. Since such a change had occurred, it meant that something unexpected had happened.
As for Lin Long, he nodded his head at this moment. A trace of a smile appeared on his face because he was certain that there was a problem with the Cordyceps Grass.
The Cordyceps Grass looked normal on the surface, but in reality, someone had already done something to it. Otherwise, it would not have undergone such a change with the green solution.
At this moment, Lin Long immediately looked at Yu He and loudly said, "Elder Yu He, there's a problem with my materials!"
Elder Yuhe noticed Linlong's expression and noticed that something was amiss. "What's the problem?" he asked.
"This Cordyceps Grass has been tampered with!" Lin Long coldly said.
Tampered with? Hearing Lin Long's words, everyone present was so shocked that their jaws dropped.
They only felt that something had happened to the materials and did not think about it at all.
Yu He couldn't help but furrow his brows as he said, "This is made by our Medicinal Pavilion's alchemists. How could there be a problem?"
He also did not think in this direction. Of course, the most important thing was that he did not see this point.
Compared to others, the reason why Lin Long could see through it at a glance was because of his rich experience and knowledge.
"I don't know about that. In short, there's a problem with the Cordyceps Grass on my stage. If you don't believe me, Elder Yu He, you can personally come and take a look!" Lin Long said.
As soon as Lin Long's words fell, Liang Xiude, who had been paying attention to Lin Long, hurriedly said, "What nonsense are you talking about? These materials were all made by the Medicinal Pavilion's alchemists. There were many people watching the entire process. How could anyone dare to tamper with it?"
He did not know how Lin Long saw through it, but right now, he had to stop Yu He from going over to take a look. If Yu He found out that there was a problem, it would be difficult to track it down.
"Teacher, how do you know that there's no problem with the Cordyceps Yang Grass if you haven't come over to take a look?" Linlong asked Liang Xiude.
Now that he could see that there was something wrong with the Cordyceps Yang Grass, he wasn't afraid of such a rebuttal.
"You're questioning our academy's teachers and elders. Who gave you the guts to do this?" Liang Xiude said agitatedly.
At this time, he naturally wanted to lead the topic in this direction, but he didn't expect Yu He's stern voice to ring out from the stage. "Instructor Liang, don't talk for now. Let me go over and take a look first."
Hearing Yu He's words, Liang Xiude could only shut his mouth.
Yu He didn't walk down immediately. Instead, he asked the elders on the stage to walk down together with him. Right now, the examination was still in progress. In order to prevent the examination from affecting the other disciples, Yu He ordered two disciples to carry Linlong's table to the front of the examinees.
By the time the two disciples carried the table out, they had already walked to the side of the table.
At this moment, Yu He looked at Lin Long and said, "You're that disciple called Lin Li, right?"
The reason why Yu He knew about it was because of Linlong's previous match with Fan Shaoyun.
"That's right," Lin Long replied.
Yu He nodded, then said, "You said that there's a problem with the cordyceps grass. What evidence do you have?"
"The evidence is the result when I put the cordyceps grass into the solution I concocted. Previously, the solution was green, but after the cordyceps grass was put in, it immediately underwent a drastic change. In the end, the entire solution even turned black. As everyone knows, the cordyceps grass' medicinal properties are mild. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't have such a drastic reaction. Therefore, there's definitely a problem with the cordyceps grass, "Lin Long said with a faint smile.
Yu He said, "It could also be a problem in other aspects. For example, there was a problem when you were mixing the green solution just now, or the heat wasn't enough, or you might have accidentally mixed something into the green solution when you were putting in the Cordyceps Grass."
Liang Xiude, who was already breaking out in cold sweat, immediately agreed when he heard Yu He's words. "That's right, that's right."
"I can guarantee that there were no problems during the concoction of the green solution, and I didn't accidentally mix anything into the solution," Lin Long said calmly.
"Things have already happened, who knows if you didn't make a mistake just now?" Liang Xiude, who seized the opportunity, immediately said.
Lin Long couldn't help but laugh. "Even if there was a problem with my steps just now, it's fine. Isn't there still the cordyceps grass on the table? We'll know once we take another section."
He already knew that there would be such doubts. Since he only took a small section of the cordyceps grass, he wasn't afraid that there wouldn't be anything to experiment with.
Liang Xiude's expression couldn't help but change. He immediately said coldly, "Do you think this is your home? You can try it whenever you want?"
Who knew that Yu He, who was at the side, would say, "Mentor Liang, don't make things difficult for him. Let's try to see if there's a problem with the cordyceps grass."
Then, Yu He looked at Lin Long, and said, "Lin Li, try it again."
Lin Long said, "Elder Yu, can I change the method of the experiment?"
"Of course." Yu He nodded, and then said, "What method do you want to experiment with?"
"I want to try with the solution concocted by the Purple Bamboo Vine and Wood Mystic Flower," Lin Long said.
"You want to try with the solution concocted by the Purple Bamboo Vine and Wood Mystic Flower?"
Hearing Linlong's words, the surrounding people all revealed shocked expressions. This was because they knew that the Gentleness created by the Purple Bamboo Vine and the Mysterious Wood Flower was extremely gentle. In addition to the Gentleness of the Cordyceps Yang Grass, how could there be any change? How was it possible to determine whether the medicinal properties of the Cordyceps Yang Grass had changed?
Liang Xiude, who was at the side, was instantly overjoyed when he heard this. He knew very well what had been done to the cordyceps grass, and he firmly believed that this little bit of tampering would definitely not cause any changes to the solution concocted by the Purple Bamboo Vine and Wood Mystic Flower.
This kid is really too smart for his own good, Liang Xiude thought in his heart.
"Are you sure you want to use this solution to test it?" Yu He asked in disbelief.
"Yes, I'm sure." Lin Long nodded.
"Then you better think it through. I'll only allow you to try this once. If you don't find any problems with the cordyceps grass, it means that you're not capable enough. After all, this is an assessment, and we can't disturb them too much." Yu He frowned.
"Elder Yu, I'm sure." Lin Long nodded again.
"Alright then." Yu He nodded, and then asked someone to bring the Purple Bamboo Vine and Wood Mystic Flower over.
Soon, the Purple Bamboo Vine and Wood Mystic Flower were brought to the scene, and placed on Lin Long's table.
"Lin Li, you can start now," Yu He said.
"Elder Yu, in order to prove that I didn't tamper with the process of concocting the solution, I hope that someone else can concoct this solution," Lin Long said.
"That's fine." Yu He nodded, and then asked, "Who do you want to concoct this solution?"
"Let this Mentor Liang do it?" Lin Long said as he pointed at Liang Xiude, who was beside Yu He.
Just now, when Liang Xiude repeatedly questioned and made things difficult for him, he could tell that there was something wrong with Liang Xiude. Now, letting Liang Xiude concoct the solution would not raise any suspicions.
Of course, the reason why he dared to do this was because he knew that Liang Xiude would definitely not dare to do anything under the watchful eyes of so many people.
"That's fine." Yu He nodded, and then looked at Liang Xiude. "Mentor Liang, I'll let you concoct this solution."
"Alright." Liang Xiude responded, and then directly walked to the table to pick up the Purple Bamboo Vine and Wood Mystic Flower to concoct.
He believed that the Cordyceps Grass would not undergo any changes when placed in the solution concocted by the Purple Bamboo Vine and Wood Mystic Flower. Hence, he was not worried at all.
Very quickly, the medicinal liquid was concocted by him. This medicinal liquid was a kind of dark green liquid.
After concocting the solution, Liang Xiude looked at Yu He and said, "Elder Yu, the solution is concocted."
Yu He nodded, "There is no problem with the concocted solution."
After saying that, he looked at Lin Long, and said, "Lin Li, can you put in the Cordyceps Grass now?"
"Of course, Mentor Liang, please continue with this step," Lin Long said with a smile.
"Alright, Mentor Liang, please continue." Yu He nodded again.
"Then let me, Liang Xiude, continue." After saying that, Liang Xiude cut off a small section from the Cordyceps Grass, and then directly placed it into the dark green solution.
In the eyes of the crowd, the Cordyceps Grass would definitely not undergo any changes when placed into the dark green solution. However, what they did not expect was that once the Cordyceps Grass was placed into the solution, the originally calm solution actually began to boil. After a few breaths, the dark green solution actually turned black.
Then, the entire solution became like a pool of stagnant water.
"What's going on?" Seeing this situation, the surrounding crowd all stared with their eyes wide open.
They were all powerful alchemists, and simply did not expect such a thing to happen.
Even Liang Xiude, who knew what had happened to the Cordyceps Grass, was so shocked that his mouth opened wide.
After the shock, Yu He frowned, and said, "This Cordyceps Grass can actually cause such a huge reaction to such a mild medicinal solution. There is definitely a problem!"
"There is definitely a problem!" The surrounding people also nodded their heads.
After saying that, Yu He stepped forward to examine the remaining Cordyceps Grass. After a careful look, he frowned because he could not see anything wrong at all.
"How strange, this Cordyceps Grass clearly looks normal." The surrounding people were also very puzzled.
Lin Long said indifferently, "Previously, I also could not see anything wrong with this Cordyceps Grass, so I could only go through that kind of test to confirm that it has been tampered with."
"On the surface, there seems to be no problem, but for it to have such a reaction, it shows that it has indeed been tampered with." Yu He nodded.
The others also nodded their heads one after another.
Then, Yu He's face darkened, and he directly looked at Liang Xiude and said, "Call all the alchemists in the Medicine Pavilion over, I want to see what exactly is the problem!"
Liang Xiude did not want to see things reach this point, but there was nothing he could do now. He could only respond and then quickly walk towards the Medicine Pavilion.
I want to see who has the guts to tamper with such an examination! Looking at Liang Xiude's back, Yu He coldly said in his heart.
He wanted to investigate step by step and find out what exactly the problem was.
