Chapter 40 Chapter 40 Competition Title: Long Lidan

Under the gaze of countless gazes below, the two figures on the square stood with their heads held high. Their tall and straight bodies set off their different auras, but they also looked majestic. For a while, the eyes of many girls in the inner courtyard below were slightly flooded. . Standing between Xiao Yan and Xiao Yan, Elder He was dressed in plain clothes. Although his hair was already grey, he looked as tough as a young man, with some wrinkles on his face, although he smiled slightly because of today's atmosphere. However, judging from the pair of vaguely sharp eyes, this Elder He is really as iron-faced as Lin Yan said.

He coughed lightly again, and suppressed all the voices in the audience with a voice full of vigor and vindictiveness. Then Elder He slowly took out a slightly yellowish quaint scroll from the ring, and said with a faint smile: " The old man has always been very interested in alchemy. But because of the harsh conditions of becoming a pharmacist, he can only give up sadly. Today, I am very happy to be able to give justice to the alchemy competition that finally appeared in the inner courtyard, but you also know that the old man You are famous on weekdays, so please put aside some doubts about the fairness of the comparison test in your heart."

Hearing Elder He's words, there were bursts of applause in the square below. Obviously, the former's fair reputation in the inner courtyard is well known. "Today's test questions were secretly selected by the old man himself. So far, Xiao Yan and Han Xian have never known what they need to refine." The response from below made Elder He smile slightly. After a little more, he lightly patted the scroll with his palm, and then, under the gaze of everyone, turned his head to Xiao Yan and smiled and said, "I told you in advance, this test question is a bit difficult... I wonder if you two will dare to take it." ?”

Hearing this, Xiao Yan and Han Xian were both startled, and looked at each other, Han Xian took the lead in cupping his fists and said with a smile: "No matter what test questions the elder chooses, Han Xian will do his best." He is confident that he is a fourth-grade pharmacist, and occasionally he can barely refine a fifth-grade elixir when his state reaches the peak. He is equally confident that even if he loses, he will be better than Xiao Yan. On the side, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, and also nodded, but did not respond. "Okay, you two are not weak. As the manager of the prescription management database in the inner courtyard, I also have the right to take out the prescription. Today, in order to thank you two for showing us the eye-opening alchemy skills, this prescription is the right to use it. This is a gift for you guys." Elder He stroked his beard and smiled, raised the scroll at the two of them, and said with a smile, "Who will read it first?"

"Senior Han first." Xiao Yan said with a light smile. "In that case, I would like to thank Junior Brother Xiao Yan." Han Xian smiled lightly, without refusing to refuse, took the scroll from Elder He, slowly spread it out, gradually closed his eyes, and the soul power broke out of his body, and then invaded In the scroll, the extremely complicated medicine refining materials are obtained. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, as the prescription information was printed into his mind, the smile on Han Xian's face gradually subsided, and in the end, it was even somewhat ugly.

Seeing the change in Han Xian's face, whispers suddenly sounded in the square below, and their eyes were full of doubts. Obviously, they were all a little unclear about what happened. "It seems a bit wrong..." Under the square, Hu Jia frowned, and said to Xun'er and others beside her. "Look first..." Xun'er also felt a little uneasy, but she still smiled calmly. On the square, Xiao Yan frowned slightly because of Han Xian's face. Judging from the situation, it seemed that there was something wrong with the prescription... Could it be that, as Elder He said, this prescription is extremely difficult?

And it's so difficult that even Han Xian, a fourth-rank pharmacist, has an ugly face? Under the gaze of countless doubtful eyes in the square, Han Xian finally withdrew his soul power from the prescription after a while, handed the prescription to Elder He, and smiled reluctantly: "The test questions chosen by the elder are indeed difficult, Han Xian can only try his best." And for." "Young people always want to challenge the limit." Elder He smiled, but there was a hint of treachery in his smile, holding the scroll, turned and handed it to Xiao Yan. After receiving the prescription, Xiao Yan unfolded it without any hesitation, and the soul power quickly eroded it.

Seeing Xiao Yan get the prescription, Han Xian couldn't help but a sneer flashed in his eyes, even he couldn't help but smile bitterly about this prescription, let alone you Xiao Yan? Han Xian looked at Xiao Yan gloatingly, expecting the scene where his face became ugly, but two minutes later, Xiao Yan's face did not appear as ugly and embarrassed as he had before, but just There was a little more solemnity and surprise. "This kid's city is very deep, and he can hide it so cleverly under such a frightening situation. Hmph, but such hypocrisy and pretentiousness will naturally be destroyed when he is able to refine alchemy." Xiao Yan showed His calmness made Han Xian frown, so he could only sneer and sneer in his heart.

"It seems that the situation is not very bad..." Below the square, Xun'er saw the solemn expression on Xiao Yan's face, she was relieved and said with a smile. On the side, Hu Jia, Wu Hao, and Lin Xi all spread their hands. The alchemy has not yet reached the end, and it is a little powerless to say anything now. Under the gaze of the audience, a few minutes later. Xiao Yan also withdrew his soul power from the prescription, rubbed his stomach that was swollen with such a huge amount of information, returned the prescription to Elder Hao, and said with a light smile: "Elder Hao is really embarrassing us, Even for ordinary fifth-rank pharmacists, these fifth-rank pills don’t have much success rate.”

"Fifth grade elixir?" He could hear the words that came out of Xiao Yan's mouth. The people below couldn't help being startled, and only then did they know why Han Xian's face became so ugly before. The fifth-rank elixir is a rank that only fifth-rank pharmacists can get their hands on. Although he is fourth-rank and other trash, Refining that kind of elixir will undoubtedly have a failure rate of more than seventy to eighty percent. "Hehe, since it's a comparison, it's natural that it should be bigger... It is indeed difficult to refine these fifth-grade elixir, but if it is really impossible, it will fail at most." Elder Hao laughed.

Xiao Yan was speechless. The elixir recorded in the prescription was a fifth-grade elixir called "Longli Pill". This kind of power has nothing to do with the amplitude of battle qi, but an extremely pure inner body power. Therefore, this "Longli Pill" belongs to the kind of elixir that can directly act on the strength increase, so it is more difficult to refine this ordinary fifth-grade elixir , this kind of elixir, not to mention Han Xian, even Xiao Yan felt a little tricky. He didn't expect that the Elder Hao in front of him would choose such a difficult test question. For this level of elixir, even the alchemy department Among them, those who can successfully refine it are probably only a few people. Elder Hao smiled lightly, and regardless of the faces of the two, he opened the scroll and read out the grade of "Longli Pill" and some superficial introductions. The people below, after hearing the effect of this elixir that can increase strength, Yu couldn't help but his eyes brightened slightly, thinking in his heart, it really deserves to be a fifth-grade elixir, and it has such a strange effect. "This old guy, is he here to preside over justice, or to cause trouble? He actually asked two juniors to refine a fifth-grade elixir..." One of the elders who came to watch the competition heard the level of the question. , could not help muttering secretly. "Since you already know the topic of the competition, please start." Elder Hao put away the scroll, and with the palm of his hand, the two black cloths in the square were blown away by a drunken wind, revealing the two There is a stone platform, and various medicinal materials filled on the stone platform. "Everyone has prepared three copies of medicinal materials. Therefore, each of you has three chances. Among these three chances, whoever succeeds in refining is the winner." Pointing at the stone platform, Elder Hao slowly Said. "Then what if they all fail? Could it be that there is no distinction between top and bottom?" Hearing this, Han Xian frowned slightly, and said. For this so-called "Longli Pill", he didn't have much confidence, but if the refining failed, wouldn't he be similar to Xiao Yan? That was undoubtedly a bit unfair to him, although this is what he thinks... "If none of them are successful in refining, then there must be a failed product of alchemy, right? From this, we can also get the same clues for both parties." But the elder smiled. Because of his interest in alchemy, he is also interested in the steps of alchemy. Very clear. Hearing what Elder Hao said, Han Xian was relieved. He was confident that even if he couldn't refine the alchemy, even if it was a failure, it would definitely be better than Xiao Yan's. "Xiao Yan, do you still have objections?" Elder Hao asked Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, tilted his head and looked at Han Xian, and saw a faint sneer in his eyes, then raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked towards a stone platform in the square. Afterwards, Han Xian bowed slightly towards the square below to inform him, and also turned around and walked quickly to another stone platform. When he passed by Xiao Yan, he paused slightly, and said with a soft smile: " You pretending to be calm, I'm waiting for your failure." "To each other." Xiao Yan smiled and walked behind the stone platform. Xiao Yan's innocence made the sneer on Han Xian's face a little bit stronger, and the corner of his mouth was "Calpa", and he stopped talking, and walked behind the stone platform. Seeing that both parties were ready, the smile on Elder Hao's face became more intense. He turned around and faced the dark square, the loud voice echoed loudly in the square. "Competition, start now!"
