Alchemy, in the eyes of many people, was a very sacred thing, it was not a profession that anyone could achieve.
Other than needing the support of fire profound qi, one also needed to have an understanding of herbs and alchemy like the back of one's hand. Only with patience and talent could one do it.
Out of a hundred martial artists who cultivated fire profound qi, at most one or two could become alchemists. If one wanted to become a high level alchemist, they still needed to go through layers of tests before they could persevere.
Yang Wu's talent in alchemy was something that even Little Hei sighed with emotion. Yang Wu did not disappoint Little Hei's teachings, he had already become a heavenly alchemist at such a young age, he was an existence that was extremely rare in the world.
Yang Wu's competition with the three alchemists more or less felt like he was bullying the weak. He had no other choice, they were all pointing at his nose to provoke him, how could he just let it go like this?
Thus, Yang Wu started to refine pills at a rapid speed, which immediately stunned everyone present.
Many herbs flew into the cauldron, a blue flame slowly rose, no one knew where it came from, and no one knew how Yang Wu controlled it, it freely burned the cauldron, the scorching heat made the flames of the other three people feel threatened, their firepower became unstable, as if it was going to be swallowed by the blue flame.
"Not good, why did my firepower scatter?" Cheng Xin Ran did not understand what was going on, he cried out involuntarily.
Yao Yi Kai panicked, "What's wrong with my Blue Wolf Fire, quickly add more fire for me."
Ni Zi was also not calm, her movements became messy, she frantically drew out profound qi to stabilize her purple thunder fire.
In their panic, they all destroyed a few herbs at the same time, and some of the herbs' essences that they had just refined were scattered.
They did not have the time to think about the reason, they quickly protected their flames, protecting the herbs' essences that they had just refined.
The people below could clearly see that their flames were completely interfered with after Yang Wu's blue flame appeared.
"What kind of fire is this, it feels so domineering, those three different flames were all interfered with, as if they had met the Fire Sovereign."
"This could be a high-level fire seed. No wonder the other party is so fearless."
"Just because an alchemist has a fire seed doesn't mean that his alchemy skills are high. He has already given up so much time, it won't be easy for him to catch up."
"Look at those herbs flying. What kind of operation is this?"
…
Yang Wu didn't want to waste too much time with the three of them. Refining Spirit Medicine was a very easy task for him.
Many herbs were thrown into the cauldron through the Divine Medicine Technique. The herbs were refined one by one and isolated one by one. Every herb was refined to perfection. In just a few blinks of an eye, dozens of herbs were refined quietly, completing the amount that the three of them had refined in a quarter of an hour.
The people below all gasped in amazement. This was the first time they had seen such an alchemy method.
The disciples of the Pill Academy still had some eyesight. They had read some ancient books and knew the methods of some high level alchemists. It was exactly the same as what Yang Wu was doing now.
They were completely certain that Yang Wu was a high level alchemist, but looking at his delicate face, they couldn't associate him with a high level alchemist.
"Young Master Yang is really amazing!" Gao Shancai sighed beside the Fifth Prince.
"En, after not seeing him for so many days, he has become even stronger." The Fifth Prince couldn't help but say in admiration.
On the other side, Lin Qiqi and Cao Fenni revealed infatuated expressions. They didn't know how to refine pills, but seeing Yang Wu's natural and unrestrained appearance, they felt that he was really charming.
"I didn't expect him to be an alchemist." Lin Qiqi lightly praised.
"I heard my father say that he is a Medicine King!" Cao Fenni replied.
At this moment, Cao Fenni's heart was filled with regret. Back then, when she accompanied her parents to the Yang family, she had put on the airs of a young miss. But now, she realized that Yang Wu was really outstanding. Just based on his alchemy skills, the Transcendent World's guardian forces would immediately accept him as an inner court disciple.
This was Tang Xiaohan's second time seeing Yang Wu refine pills. In her eyes, every move he made was so handsome. Her heart beat faster and faster. She only had Yang Wu in her heart. No matter how she looked at him, when she loved someone, he was sparkling.
Wan Lanxin was relatively calm. She thought to herself, "He's in the limelight again. Is he afraid that he won't attract enough admirers?"
Yang Wu entered a state of alchemy, completely ignoring everything around him. He quickly finished refining a set of herbs without wasting a single one. He reached a success rate of one hundred percent.
Chen Zhao was dumbfounded.
After Yang Wu finished refining the herbs, the other three people still had some that had not finished refining. All of them were nervously proceeding in an orderly manner. Their faces were all covered in sweat. Clearly, the disturbance just now made them unable to remain calm.
Yang Wu did not have the time to pay attention to them. He started condensing the medicinal pill with extremely fast techniques. The complicated seals made people dazzled.
Bang!
After a dull sound rang out, Yang Wu had already finished refining the pill.
This sound once again frightened the other three people. They were like birds startled by the twang of a bow. Their minds were not solid enough and were very affected by the outside world.
After Yang Wu closed the lid, he calmly watched them continue refining pills. He did not open his mouth to mock or disturb them.
It was not that he looked down on them, but that they provoked him first, so he was forced to retaliate. Now that he had finished refining pills in advance, he did not feel complacent. Instead, he was thinking that if his identity as a Heavenly Alchemist was announced, who knew how many people would respect him.
Thinking of this, he felt that it was necessary to spend a little more time on refining pills and improve his alchemy skills as soon as possible. It was better to be prepared.
After many things were taken care of, it was also a good choice to recruit troops and buy horses, establish the Wuhou Gang, and establish a hegemony.
As Yang Wu thought about it, he continuously heard the sound of cauldrons exploding. Clearly, Cheng Xinran, Yao Yikai, and Ni Zi had all finished refining their medicinal pills one after another.
The time they spent was several times more than Yang Wu, but in the eyes of many Alchemy Department disciples, this was already very fast.
Among these three people, the one who condensed pills the fastest was Yao Yikai, followed by Cheng Xinran, and finally Ni Zi. Whoever refined the better medicinal pill in the end would only know after opening it.
"Alright, everyone has refined the Blood Recovery Pill. Let's see who refined the best medicinal pill," Chen Zhao announced. Immediately after, he looked at the four people and asked, "Who will open the furnace first?"
"I'll go first." Cheng Xinran was the first to answer.
After speaking, he opened the lid of the furnace first.
Suddenly, a faint medicinal fragrance filled the air. A faint mist drifted in the air, causing an uproar.
Cheng Xinran looked at the two medicinal pills in the furnace and immediately took them out with a smile. "Vice Principal, I refined two Blood Recovery Pills."
He shook the two medicinal pills in front of Chen Zhao as if he was asking for credit. Then, he showed them to the surrounding people, his face full of arrogance.
In the process of refining pills, although he made some mistakes, he was still able to condense two Blood Recovery Pills. This was enough to prove that his alchemy skills were not ordinary.
Chen Zhao walked over and glanced at Cheng Xinran's medicinal pills. He nodded lightly and commented, "Not bad."
Immediately after, Yao Yikai opened the furnace and the smile on his face became even more proud. "Vice Principal, please take a look."
Chen Zhao walked closer to take a look. His eyes flickered as he said softly, "Yao Yikai refined three Blood Recovery Pills. The quality is not bad."
"This is impossible." Cheng Xinran exclaimed and walked over to take a look. There were indeed three medicinal pills in Yao Yikai's furnace. His expression instantly turned ugly.
All along, his alchemy skills had been recognized as the best in the Alchemy Department. Everyone called him Senior Brother. Now that Yao Yikai had silently surpassed him, it was hard for him to accept.
Ni Zi opened the furnace lid and also condensed three Blood Recovery Pills. This time, Cheng Xinran was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Chen Yan smiled. "Good, good. Ni Zi, you're very good. You also refined three medicinal pills."
"Thank you, Vice Principal, for your guidance." Ni Zi bowed to Chen Zhao. She was really grateful to Chen Zhao. In these two years, he had spent a lot of time on her. In her heart, he was already her master.
Chen Zhao nodded to Ni Zi in satisfaction. Then, he looked at Yang Wu and said, "Marquis Yang, they've all opened it. You should open it too. Let them see what true alchemy skills are."
"Vice Principal, you're really confident in him. I don't believe he can be better than us." Cheng Xinran said unhappily.
Yao Yikai smiled. "Quickly open it and let us see. Let us broaden our horizons."
These words were very humble. In reality, his appearance and tone had already deeply betrayed him. He clearly did not think that Yang Wu could refine better pills than them.
Ni Zi looked at Yang Wu. She also wanted to know how many medicinal pills this guy who had let them win for fifteen minutes could refine.
Yang Wu casually opened the lid of the cauldron, and a thick medicinal fragrance spread out on the spot. This fragrance was ten times stronger than when the three of them opened the lid. Everyone stretched their necks, wanting to see how many pills were in this cauldron.
Chen Zhao, Cheng Xinran, Yao Yikai, and Ni Zi all gathered around. They focused their eyes and looked. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Impossible. How can he refine so many medicinal pills?" Cheng Xinran cried out.
Yao Yikai also could not remain calm. He swallowed his saliva and said, "This is too fake."
"Refining fifteen Blood Recovery Pills in one go, so amazing!" Ni Zi revealed an expression of worship as she spoke.
Chen Zhao announced loudly, "Marquis Yang has refined fifteen Blood Pills. Marquis Yang wins. From today onwards, he is the eldest senior brother of the Alchemy Department."
This time, everyone present cried out in shock.
"Refining fifteen Blood Pills in one go. Did I hear wrong?"
"This is fake. I've never heard of anyone being able to refine so many pills in one go. Even the Vice Principal does not have this ability. Could it be that his alchemy skills are better than the Vice Principal's?"
"Cheating, he must be cheating. Could it be that he has some relationship with the Vice Principal? Does the Vice Principal also believe this is real?"
