Chapter 61: He Stunned Everyone’s Eyes. He Actually Managed to Refine It
Everyone was speechless when they saw Gu Xi’s actions. They even wondered how Gu Xi managed to get a spot in the competition.
Anyone who had some basic knowledge of pharmacology knew that they could not do that. However, Gu Xi just had to step on every single one of them.
In contrast to his outrageous behavior, the others on the stage were much more normal. Soon, everyone no longer paid attention to him and turned to look at the other contestants.
Without a second thought, he would be eliminated in the first round.
“Look over there!”
Soon, everyone saw a wisp of white smoke rising slowly. This was the phenomenon of the completion of the Origin Convergence Pill. This wisp of smoke was surprisingly coming out of Baizhi’s cauldron.
The white smoke seemed to be about to solidify. It was as if a crane was flying into the cauldron along with a cinnabar tree. It was also as if a hundred flowers were blooming, attracting colorful butterflies to dance. Everyone could faintly hear the chirping of insects and birds. All sorts of strange phenomena followed one after another, it made people sigh.
If nothing unexpected happened, this cauldron of pills would definitely be successfully refined. Moreover, the quality of the pills was perfect. Otherwise, such a situation would not have occurred.
“It looks like she’s going to succeed. As expected of the Alchemy Emperor’s disciple. She should be the first person to successfully refine the pills.”
“As expected, the disciple will eventually be better than the master. It seems that the Alchemy Emperor has a successor.”
There were some people who flattered her, but most of them recognized Baizhi’s strength. After all, this was a fact that everyone had seen with their own eyes.
In the face of the praise and discussion of the crowd, Baizhi was unmoved. Her red lips were slightly pursed, like a ripe cherry that was hanging on a book, looking plump and juicy.
“Rise!”
As she shouted, the lid of the cauldron floated in the air, and a few round pills flew out immediately. As if they were summoned, they fell into Baizhi’s hands spontaneously.
The slender jade hands formed a sharp contrast with the pills as if they were perfect artistic objects. They were simply pleasing to the eye, so much so that the surrounding crowd burst into cheers.
As expected, Baizhi was the first to successfully refine it. She looked at the other contestants calmly.
Soon, the second and third wisps of white smoke appeared one after another, which meant that the other contestants had also successfully refined it. At the same time, there was also a lot of black smoke mixed in. For a moment, the black and white colors intertwined together, forming a particularly strange scene.
It could be seen that even if it was the second time, there were still many people who failed.
“It’s said that fifth grade origin convergence pills are difficult to refine. I didn’t believe it at first, but now I’ve learned a lot.”
“It seems that many people would be selected in this round of competition.”
Everyone sighed with emotion.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the host stepped forward and announced, “The first round of competition is over! Everyone, please stop your actions.”
The alchemists present did not dare to disobey the host’s words, or else they would also be disqualified from the competition. The referee began to inspect the pills.
Lu Haoxuan was the final referee, so it was not his place to personally handle such a small matter.
The referee quickly looked over. Many people who failed to refine the pills were sifted out. When he passed by Gu Xi, his footsteps paused slightly. His gaze stopped on the cauldron, and his expression was a little surprised.
If he was not mistaken, this seemed to be a cauldron used for beginners to practice.
The referee could not help but take a few more glances, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his lips. This person actually used this cauldron to refine the Origin Convergence Pill. It was as if he was just playing around. This guy must really think that this place was a joke.
He did not even think about crossing out Gu Xi’s name. How could such a person refine the pill? However, in the next second, he froze on the spot, and the pen in his hand also left a dark mark on the register.
“This is...”
The referee could not believe what he saw. He saw a few pills lying around Gu Xi. They were Origin Convergence Pills! He could not help but rub his eyes. He thought that he was hallucinating.
It was really refined!
The referee could not help but ask, “You refined this?”
Gu Xi nodded.
Could it be cheating? The referee thought of this year. However, looking around, there was no possibility of Gu Xi cheating.
The position of the arena was determined by the position of the sect. For example, the big sects were at the front, followed by the weaker sects.
Therefore, the people around Gu Xi were still slightly weaker. They looked at the cauldron in front of them with dispirited expressions. Black smoke kept pouring out. Obviously, many people failed, but few succeeded.
How could Gu Xi cheat under such circumstances?
The referee turned around in disbelief. His face was full of surprise. Baizhi had also discovered the novice cauldron. She could not help but feel a little curious. Who was the person who used a novice cauldron?
Her beautiful eyes moved around, wanting to see more clearly. However, the referee had already counted the number of people and announced that the second match was about to begin. Baizhi had no choice but to give up.
Many people left the arena. They were all people who had failed to refine the Origin Convergence Pill.
Many people outside the arena shook their heads. As they had expected, there were many people who had been eliminated in the first round. Almost half of them had been eliminated.
“Sigh, the Origin Convergence Pill is already so difficult to refine. I wonder what problems will come up in the future.”
“After all, the Alchemy Emperor is here. It’s probably impossible to fish in troubled waters under the noses of the big shots.”
“The Alchemy Emperor’s requirements are too harsh. We don’t know who the final victor will be.”
Just as everyone was discussing, someone suddenly seemed to have discovered a new continent. He could not help but exclaim in surprise, “Are you kidding me? He’s actually still here!”
