"First place?"
Yang Rong's face was filled with shock. In her opinion, there were too many powerful alchemists this time. It would be good enough if they could get into the top three, but Ye Mo said he would definitely help them get first place.
"Alright, you should rest early. Tomorrow is the elimination round."
After saying that, Ye Mo closed his eyes and pretended to enter a state of cultivation. After Yang Rong left, Ye Mo immediately entered the Genius Badge and began a few days of cultivation to purify his power.
Woo, woo, woo, woo!
Suddenly, the sound of a long flute could be heard from afar.
"The second day of the elimination round is about to begin!"
Ye Mo's expression was solemn as he walked out of the Genius Badge's space.
The sound of the flute resonated through the air, causing everyone's blood to boil. All the alchemists in the Pill City, regardless of whether they had signed up for the competition or not, started to gather and rushed towards the plaza of the Pill City.
The Pill City Plaza had undergone a drastic change compared to the day before. Many spectator stands had been built around the Pill City, and on the stands were densely packed with seats.
Around the Pill City Plaza, there was already a large number of people heading towards the stands.
Under the guidance of the guards, Ye Mo and Yang Rong entered the spectator's stand. All around them were participants of the competition.
"Yang Rong, how are we going to compete later?"
Ye Mo asked curiously.
"Aren't we going to collect our number tags? The number will be randomly selected. Once we are selected, we will be transported to a special space. Your opponent will also appear in the same space as you. Then, the two of you will compete in alchemy, "Yang Rong said.
Ye Mo nodded.
Ye Mo nodded and began to scan the surroundings. He found that there were many powerful auras hidden in the area. The Dead Spirit Clan and the Dead Spirit Royal Clan were also hidden among them. It seemed that this competition had attracted a lot of attention.
"Everyone, this old man is the Pill Saint. All of you are the most outstanding Alchemists in the Departed Soul Mainland. The scale of this Alchemist Competition is grand, and the rewards are exceptionally precious. The prerequisite is that you must be able to distinguish yourself from the tens of thousands of Alchemists."
Whoosh!
As soon as the voice fell, the crowd erupted again. The Pill Saint had indeed arrived. They looked around, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find the Pill Saint.
"The Alchemy Saint isn't even here. He's hidden in space. However, his cultivation level is indeed very strong. I'm afraid he's reached the level of Six Divine Souls."
With a thought, Ye Mo cast his gaze towards a direction in the sky. With the Eyes of the Divine Beast, he could sense an obscure fluctuation in the air, and it wasn't just one person.
"Everyone, the Alchemist Competition organized by the Dan Clan will now officially begin!"
The Pill Saint's voice rang out once again. The entire square was filled with excitement.
Following that, the entire square became incomparably quiet. All the participating alchemists knew that the elimination round was about to begin.
Following that, Ye Mo saw that the number plates of some of the alchemists around him started to shine brightly before they disappeared from where they stood.
"Ye Xiao, the match has begun!"
Yang Rong was also a little nervous. This was also her first time participating in an Alchemy Competition. Competing with so many Alchemists, what if she met a powerful Alchemist the moment she appeared? Wouldn't she be out of luck?
"En!"
Ye Mo nodded. A moment later, he felt his number plate start to shine brightly. Following that, a strong wave of Spatial Power attacked his body. Ye Mo didn't resist.
In an instant, the space around him changed. Ye Mo appeared in an empty space. In front of him was a seemingly young man. This person was most likely his opponent.
"Alchemist No.2000 versus Alchemist No.5001. You will be competing in refining an eighth-grade elixir, the God Emperor Thunderbolt Pill. According to the success rate and purity of the elixir, the winner will advance to the next round."
An old voice suddenly rang out in the space. Following that, two sets of ingredients for refining the Divine Emperor Thunderbolt Pill appeared in front of them. Each person had one set. With this amount, one set could produce 100 pills.
"I didn't expect it to be the Divine Emperor Thunderbolt Pill that I'm best at."
Hearing that, the young man's face lit up. Following that, a cold arrogance appeared on his face. Looking at Ye Mo, he said, "Admit defeat so that you don't waste the herbs. There's no way you can beat me."
"I think you're the one wasting the herbs, right?"
Ye Mo replied coldly. Without saying anything, he took out the Groundfiend Demon Furnace. Grabbing the herbs, he threw them into the furnace and started refining.
Seeing the furnace that Ye Mo took out, the young man was shocked. He could tell the quality of the furnace with a single glance. Not daring to be careless, he started refining.
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, the two of them finished refining at almost the same time. Ye Mo took out 100 Divine Emperor Thunderbolt Pills. This time, Ye Mo didn't use all of the Tomb Dragon Power. He only increased the purity of the Divine Emperor Thunderbolt Pills to 75%.
Both of them took out the 100 pills that they had refined. The quality of the pills could be seen immediately. Ye Mo's Divine Emperor Thunderbolt Pills were far superior to his opponent's, be it in terms of purity or appearance.
Immediately, a voice rang out in the space, "Number 2000, Ye Xiao wins."
At that moment, the young man's token shattered. Once the token shattered, he would be sent out of the space.
Ye Mo knew that he was about to face the second round of the competition. Challenging again and again until he reached the final round, this pill refining competition was meaningless to Ye Mo. If he wasn't afraid of alerting everyone, he would've refined the highest grade pills and no one would've been able to defeat him.
With no one in the space, Ye Mo sat down cross-legged. Then, he felt dozens of Divine Senses being projected at him. But Ye Mo's Divine Sense didn't waver.
Ye Mo couldn't tell who those Divine Senses belonged to, but they were definitely all Divine Realm cultivators with six Divine Souls. And those big shots could see everything clearly.
Just as Ye Mo expected, the big shots of the Pill Clan and the Pill Saint were all hidden in the space.
"The results of the first round are out."
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in the void.
"The Pill Devil's successor concocted a level-nine medicinal pill with a purity of eighty-five percent. Just a little bit more and he would be able to condense pill veins. And the Pill Saint's successor concocted a level-nine medicinal pill with a purity of eighty-three percent. There are a hundred people with a purity of seventy percent or higher."
Hearing this result, Dan Dongfeng also smiled: "Looks like this batch's standards are very high, there are actually a hundred alchemists who can refine a ninth tier elixir with a purity of 70% and above."
"Pill Saint, your disciple seems to be a bit weaker than the successor of the Pill Devil."
Another elder of the Dan Clan said.
"It's only 85%. It hasn't reached the level of Fine Grade. My disciple can refine Fine Grade pills."
The Pill Saint smiled disdainfully. "However, the successor of the Pill Devil is indeed a genius. If we were to compare their strength, the champion of the Alchemist Competition would undoubtedly be my disciple's."
The Pill Sage had another meaning behind his words.
"Pill Saint, don't be so harsh with your words."
Another elder of the Dan Clan smiled faintly and said, "Pill refining is also dependent on luck. Even if your disciple can refine Fine Grade pills, it won't be a hundred percent success rate. Dan Chenzi of the Dan Clan has also refined Fine Grade pills before."
