For the same pill formula, an ordinary alchemist would only grab the ingredients according to the formula. Their hands could not leave the scale. Without the scale, they would not be able to mix the ingredients. Even if they managed to mix the ingredients, it would very likely be poison.
However, a true genius alchemist would know the medicinal properties of the ingredients with just a grab. With a sniff, they would know the medicinal strength. There was simply no need for a scale. There was nothing more accurate than their hands.
One had to know that medicinal herbs of different ages would have different medicinal effects and medicinal strength.
Not to mention different years, even if the medicinal herbs were grown in different places, or even in different environments, there would be huge differences in their medicinal effects and potency.
An ordinary alchemist could only use a scale to weigh the ingredients and mix them according to the weight recorded in the pill formula.
But in reality, a true genius Alchemist would concoct their own medicine according to the ratio of the medicinal efficacy and medicinal strength written on the pill recipe. They would look at the medicinal strength, not the weight.
Seeing that the group of people insisted on not believing him, Yan Guilai indifferently leaned on the wooden shelf. He smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, you can completely mess up the order of all the ingredients. Then, I'll just have to do it again."
After hearing Yan Guilai's explanation, Chu Xingtian muttered to himself for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Soon, Yan Guilai was invited out. With Chu Xingtian as the leader, everyone started to get busy, completely messing up the order of all the ingredients.
Soon, all the ingredients were completely messed up, especially the medicinal herbs involved in the ten pill formulas. They were hidden as well as they could be.
Finally, Yan Guilai was invited in again.
Looking at the messy pharmacy, Yan Guilai smiled coldly. He gently patted the wooden shelf and said, "What's wrong? If I find the right ingredients this time, no one will suspect that I bribed someone, right?"
Faced with Yan Guilai's question, Chu Xingtian and everyone else firmly confirmed it.
What kind of joke was this? All the ingredients had been completely messed up. Many of the ingredients had even been moved by different people several times.
Now, not to mention Yan Guilai, even if the nine of them were to search, they would not be able to find it so quickly.
Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, Yan Gui Lai didn't say much nonsense. He grabbed a bamboo basket in one hand and casually took out a pill formula. After glancing at it a few times, he nodded, indicating that he had made all the preparations.
Seeing this scene, the examiner took a deep breath and said, "Alright, are you ready? The countdown … begins! "
As soon as the examiner finished speaking, Yan Guilai shot out like an arrow, running around in nine circles three times, his hands waving rapidly.
Under everyone's gaze, Yan Guilai's speed was still as fast as ever. As he ran, he would occasionally reach into the pile of medicinal herbs and directly grab a few medicinal herbs from the pile.
Seeing that Yan Guilai had taken out all the medicinal herbs that they had hidden very deeply, very secretively, in an instant, everyone felt as uncomfortable as if they had eaten a dead fly.
At this moment, no one would suspect that Yan Guilai was cheating. After all … these herbs had been put in by different people. Moreover, during the entire process, Yan Guilai had not had the opportunity to come into contact with anyone, nor had he had any way of communicating.
Therefore, the facts were enough to prove that Yan Guilai was indeed as he had said. As long as he placed his hand on the wooden shelf, all the medicinal herbs in the entire pharmacy would be instantly visible.
He casually threw the bamboo basket on the wooden table. Although the examiner had not verified it yet, everyone knew that Yan Guilai had definitely chosen correctly.
Looking around, Yan Guilai shook his head and said, "Don't think that others are cheating just because you can't do it. In reality … if placed a hundred years ago, only those who could reach this level could be considered geniuses!"
What! This …
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, everyone felt a huge blow.
However, Chu Xingtian was the first to regain his senses. He laughed proudly and said, "I admit that you are indeed a rare genius in the wood element. However … my Nirvana Sacred Flame is not inferior in any way!"
Looking deeply at Chu Xingtian, Yan Guilai said in a deep voice, "Indeed … the Nirvana Sacred Flame is one of the most suitable flames for refining pills. However … you are too impatient for quick success!"
Impatient for quick success?
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Chu Xingtian could not help but frown.
Ever since he could remember, everyone had praised him and praised him. They had even disregarded the taboo name of their ancestors and named him Chu Xingtian!
All this time, no one had ever criticized him. This had made him very happy and comfortable.
In fact, he was indeed very outstanding. Everything he had displayed along the way had not disappointed those who cared about him, nor had he been slapped in the face by those who had praised him.
However, today, in the examination hall, he had defeated his opponent with an exaggerated advantage. Yet, he had been criticized for being impatient for quick success!
Looking deeply at Chu Xingtian, Yan Guilai did not know why. Although this guy was not very likable, he did not want him to take the wrong path, or even walk down the wrong path.
Looking at Chu Xingtian, Yan Guilai said, "For the past many years, you have only been thinking about how to ignite an even fiercer flame. You are only worried that the flame is not fierce enough. You can't go on like this."
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Chu Xingtian sneered and said disdainfully, "Haha! You have just defeated me twice and you are already lecturing me? I really can't figure out where your confidence comes from! "
Shaking his head, Chu Xingtian continued, "Alright, I admit … I lost to you in the identification of medicinal ingredients. However … isn't this what you wood element alchemists should do? What are you proud of? "
While speaking, Chu Xingtian moved closer to Yan Guilai and lowered his voice so that only Yan Guilai could hear him, "Speaking of which, you might not be aware. Although Aoki University's alchemy inheritance has indeed been cut off, our Nangong Family's alchemy inheritance has never been cut off."
Proudly giving himself a thumbs up, Chu Xingtian said, "Moreover, even if Aoki University's alchemy inheritance had not been cut off, it would still be incomparable to our Nangong Family's alchemy skills. When it comes to alchemy, our Nangong Family is the true ancestor!"
Looking deeply at Chu Xingtian, Yan Guilai said, "Indeed, I admit … the Nangong Family's ancestor, the Reincarnation Heavenly Emperor, was indeed the greatest alchemist in the history of mankind. However, what does that have to do with you?"
Looking confidently at Yan Guilai, Chu Xingtian said, "Haha … what does it have to do with me? You better understand that Di Tianyi's blood flows in my body. I also have the Nirvana Flame, and even … the Nirvana Sacred Flame! "
Proudly raising his head, Chu Xingtian said, "Don't look down on the previous two rounds. You have won two rounds against me, but that doesn't count for much. The next round is the core. You will soon understand the difference between us!"
After speaking, Chu Xingtian was unwilling to stay any longer and strode out of the door with his head held high.
Coldly glaring at Yan Guilai, the other five geniuses followed behind him and left the pharmacy one after another.
