Even if there were so many Spiritual crystal, Shen Xiang would not follow these people, not to mention that he did not have any right now, so he did not pay any attention to them. At this time, he saw that the other participants all took out a Storage bag and placed it in front of him. At this time, an old man came over to collect it.
As long as he confirmed that there were a hundred thousand Spiritual crystal in the Storage bag, the old man would take out a good quality pill furnace and three sets of high grade Ground level pills' medicinal ingredients.
It was Shen Xiang's first time participating in the examination, so he did not know about this kind of unspoken rule. The others seemed to have already made preparations, but when the old man saw that he was indifferent, he reminded him again, but he still did not take out a hundred thousand Spiritual crystal.
Everyone frowned as they looked at Shen Xiang, but many of them knew that this guy definitely did not know the rules, so he was not prepared. In everyone's eyes, Shen Xiang would definitely fail the examination this time, and even waste the registration fee.
In the end, Shen Xiang obtained three sets of extremely poor quality medicinal ingredients and an inferior pill furnace. This made Shen Xiang very unhappy, and his impression of the Sacred City was greatly reduced. He really wanted to know who was in charge of the Sacred Dan Palace, to think that it would be so dark. If this place was Di Tian, he would have already destroyed this place without caring about anything else.
There were a lot of experts in the Sacred City, and a few of them were on par with the Super Yuan Sect Leader, so he decided to keep a low profile.
The quality of these medicinal ingredients was not good, but they could still be used to refine pills. Even if they were abandoned, they could still allow him to refine Relive Dan.
The examination required him to refine three batches of high grade Ground level pills in a row, and he needed to succeed in all three batches. He could not fail even once, so he could not be careless. The quality of the medicinal ingredients and the pill furnace was related to success or failure in the eyes of many people. Although this matter was very unpleasant, he still had to obediently hand over a hundred thousand Spiritual crystal.
When Shen Xiang saw the expressions of the few old invigilators, he was not worried about whether or not he could refine the Relive Dan, but whether or not these old men would obstruct him after he refined it. He had talked about this kind of people before, after all, a hundred thousand Spiritual crystal was a huge sum of money here, unless it was a very famous Alchemist, they would not be interested in this little bit of Spiritual crystal.
Although the quality of the pill furnace was very poor, in Shen Xiang's opinion, it was enough. The herbs used to refine the Relive Dan were very poor, they were the worst kind of herbs, and it seemed that those old men had deliberately prepared them to make things difficult for people.
The supplementary herbs were all brought by themselves. Shen Xiang's supplementary herbs were heaven-defying and could make up for the deficiencies of the main herbs.
"As long as you can refine three batches of pills within twelve hours, you'll be considered to have passed the Gold Grade Alchemist examination. You can take away the pills that you've refined!" An old man said, and then looked at the crowd. When his gaze swept over Shen Xiang, he deliberately revealed a fierce look.
"From now on, if he cheats, we will throw him out."
The registration fee was ten thousand Spiritual crystal, and the high grade Ground level pills were at most six to seven hundred Spiritual crystal, so three batches would at most be three pills. This Sacred Dan Palace had made a huge profit, and this was not even mentioning the hundred thousand Spiritual crystal that the unspoken rules had added.
Shen Xiang realized that the people who made the rules here were all for their own benefits, and at the same time, to prevent ordinary people from competing with them for benefits. To put it bluntly, they were exploiting ordinary people, and the ones who earned the most were the people at the top, followed by a small portion of Alchemist s.
In the Sacred City, no one was allowed to trade pills privately. If they were discovered, they would be considered to have violated the rules and would be blacklisted. The reason was to prevent people from using inferior pills to swindle others during private transactions … In short, it was said in a dignified manner.
"The crows in the world are all black. I wonder if it was like this when the Great Emperor was here for Ten Days?" Shen Xiang thought in his heart.
Wait.
Everyone had already ignited their flames, and all of their pill furnaces were emitting a weak fire aura. The Alchemist s who came to participate in the examination were all of good standards, and this kind of ability to control fire was extremely difficult to find in Di Tian.
Shen Xiang suddenly had an idea, and that was to kidnap a large group of outstanding Alchemist s back. If his Dragon Subduing Gate wanted to grow stronger, he would need a certain amount of outstanding Alchemist s, and it would be extremely difficult for him and Li Baojun to do so.
In order to not attract too much attention, Chen Xiang only planned to refine one Relive Dan in one furnace, and he even slowed down the time by a lot. If he showed off too much, it would attract a lot of trouble.
Shen Xiang had already grasped the basics of the fifth stage of the Foreseeing Alchemy, but right now, he was only using the fourth stage, which would make it much easier for him.
Refining a batch of Relive Dan in four hours was like playing with him. When the old men who were supervising the examination saw that Shen Xiang was able to successfully refine a batch of Relive Dan, they were secretly unhappy in their hearts. They really hoped that Shen Xiang would fail in refining the next batch of Relive Dan.
In the second batch, Shen Xiang still managed to condense a very good quality Relive Dan, which made the other Alchemist s look at Shen Xiang in a new light. Originally, they thought that Shen Xiang was a fool who did not know the rules, and thought that such a person would not be able to refine pills, but now that they saw that Shen Xiang was able to refine Relive Dan two batches in a row, they all admired him from the bottom of their hearts.
In the eyes of these Alchemist s, it was very difficult for Shen Xiang to refine pills with those inferior pill furnaces and some inferior medicinal herbs. For him to be able to do it, it meant that his level surpassed most of the Alchemist s here.
Most of the people who came to participate in the examination were determined to succeed. Only a few failed, and most of them succeeded. Now that five hours had passed, everyone else had already left, because their medicinal herbs and pill furnaces were all good. They quickly completed the examination and went to receive a gold medal.
Of course, if Shen Xiang did not deliberately slow down, the one who completed the examination the fastest would definitely be him.
Shen Xiang deliberately wanted to delay until the end before opening the pill furnace. Especially now that he saw the impatient expressions of those old men, he secretly laughed in his heart.
If it wasn't for Chen Xiang, these old men would have been able to leave three hours ago, but now they had to wait for Chen Xiang until the end. They were also some Alchemist, and they could see that Chen Xiang's level was not low. If there were good herbs and pill furnaces, they would definitely be faster than other Alchemist, and they wouldn't have to wait so long now. Of course, they had thought that Shen Xiang would fail very quickly.
An hour before the end, Shen Xiang opened the lid of the pill furnace and took out a Relive Dan.
"I'm done!" Shen Xiang said. At this time, he saw a crafty light flash across the eyes of the few elders.
"Time is up. Come again next time!" An old man sneered.
"Isn't there still an hour?" Shen Xiang said angrily in his heart.
Another old man shouted, "I said time is up, so time is up. Hurry up and scram, otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!"
"Scram, we'll pretend that we didn't see you cheating. Don't think that we don't know that you're cheating. We're just giving you a chance to come again next time!"
