Chapter 137: Admission.
At this moment, behind the mist, the soft voice came out again: "The next batch."
Soon, the team moved forward a lot again.
Although many alchemists are very interested in the students of Yulin Academy, they are not interested in watching the excitement as it is their turn to end.
The commotion originally caused by the appearance of Gu Nanxun and the others quickly subsided.
The tense atmosphere filled the air again.
As the soft voice reminded again and again, the originally extremely long team moved forward little by little.
Most of the day later, an endless queue had formed behind Pei Ling and the three Yulin students. In front of Pei Ling, there were only less than ten people left.
In the next game, it will be his turn!
At this time, almost no one spoke before or after Pei Ling. Everyone looked solemn, and the atmosphere was like an extremely stretched string.
Although Gu Nanxun and the others were not nervous because of the audition, there was a hint of excitement in their eyebrows.
Obviously, they don't think there is anything wrong with the subsequent alchemy, and they are even looking forward to their various performances in this alchemy ceremony.
In contrast, Pei Ling's calmness is eye-catching.
He felt nothing in his heart.
After all, you just need to use the system to host it later and you can pass it directly.
Everything has been calculated.
Now just waiting to get in.
Not long after, accompanied by a huge explosion, the soft voice sounded again: "The next batch..."
Hearing this, the seven or eight alchemists lined up in front of Pei Ling all looked tense at the same time. They immediately arranged their robes in a hurry, and then carefully walked into the mist.
Pei Ling followed calmly.
A group of people behind him also entered one after another.
Gu Nanxun noticed that Pei Ling's attitude was different and couldn't help but take another look at him.
"I guess he came here to watch the excitement." The apple of Marquis Zhaotai's eye quickly figured out the reason and didn't take him to heart.
After walking into the mist, the originally hazy scene in front of me suddenly became clear.
What I saw inside the door was not the expected courtyard, but a broad hall.
At this moment, forty alchemy platforms were neatly set up under the Guangdian Hall.
Each alchemy platform occupies a vast area, with enough space for the alchemist to perform.
On the alchemy platform, there is a fire-gathering formation engraved on it, which is obviously prepared for those alchemists who have not absorbed fire into their bodies.
At the top of the Guangdian Hall, on dozens of levels of balconies, there is a gorgeous seat in the middle. Behind it are young girls, all wearing colorful clothes, wearing high buns, wearing jingle bells, and holding crossed fans made of Luan bird tail feathers.
And stand.
Among the seats, an old man in brocade robes sat.
This old man's beard and hair are all white, tied up in a square bun with an emerald horizontal hairpin, and his eyebrows are as long as snow, falling to his shoulders. He looks extremely old, but his complexion is still rosy and wrinkle-free. As he looks around, his eyes are clear.
At this moment, he was stroking the jade ring on his thumb, and his eyes were wandering back and forth over the many alchemists.
Around the old man, there were many seats arranged like a sparrow screen.
Looking around, there are men, women, old and young, with different costumes, and all have high levels of cultivation. Although they all have restrained their auras, the occasional exposure of their auras unintentionally still makes some alchemists with weaker cultivation levels turn slightly pale.
Most of these people looked dull, and a few even looked bored.
Seeing Pei Ling and his group coming in, the people above Danqi didn't take it seriously at first, but their eyes touched the three Yulin students behind Pei Ling, and they suddenly became energetic!
"He's a student from Yulin Academy!" A monk with a rather free-spirited temperament took the lead in transmitting the message, "Thank God, there are finally a few decent alchemists here!"
"Otherwise, if I continue to do this kind of review, I'm really afraid that I will be so angry that my heart will be unstable."
His companions also lamented: "The original intention of the Dan Dan Ceremony was to attract foreign talents to the dynasty. However, in recent years, it has become more and more outrageous!"
"Almost everyone thinks that the Dynasty is a fat sheep, and they come to participate with the idea of gambling their luck."
"Not to mention refining middle-grade elixirs, some people can count on one hand the number of times they have touched the elixir furnace from birth to the time they entered the field."
"You don't even know how to control the most basic fire, and you just explode the furnace in the middle of making it. Are you even thinking about auditioning?"
A judge not far away laughed and said: "Anyone who can make the furnace explode halfway is already considered good. I didn't see that someone just studied the materials for a long time and still got the main materials and auxiliary materials wrong.
material?"
"Those are not real alchemists!" One of the judges shook his head and said, "They are just joining in the fun. After this day, we in Xicheng City can count on two hands the number of alchemists who can pass the audition. And they are all
I had to use up all three opportunities to open the furnace before I barely passed! At this level, even if you pass the audition, you will definitely be eliminated in the next round."
"Not bad!" The judge sitting next to him had a serious face, but quietly turned his head and yawned, and said through the voice, "I have been watching amateur alchemy for a whole day today, and my eyes are sleepy."
"These three disciples of Yulin Academy, the one on the left is a child of the Xin family, and the one on the right seems to be a child of the He family. These two people have already passed the assessment of ninth-level alchemists, and their families gave them some rewards at that time.
Coming to participate in the audition this time is just a formality. But that little girl..."
"That is a girl from Zhaotaihou's family." A judge who knew Gu Nanxun whispered, "She is also the junior of Concubine Xian and the cousin of Princess Yongning. It is said that her qualifications are very outstanding. She passed the examination of Yulin Academy at a very young age.
, and through Xian Fei, I became a disciple of a certain alchemy master..."
"It's just that he has been suppressed by his master, focusing on studying alchemy, and rarely shows up."
"Although he still has the title of a ninth-grade alchemist now, in fact, he should already have the level of an eighth-grade alchemist."
"I also went to the imperial capital to do business a few days ago, and I heard about it by chance from a friend, so I found out about it."
"Oh?" When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested, "Such a young eighth-level alchemist, then we should take a closer look."
The Lulu Dynasty divided alchemists into grades one to nine, with grade one being the highest and grade nine being the entry level.
An eighth-grade alchemist may seem low, but in fact, the imperial court's assessment of alchemists is very strict and comprehensive.
Even if you are only a ninth-grade alchemist, you need to master the types of medicinal materials, refining techniques, and the compatibility and conflict of medicinal properties... it is an extremely huge knowledge system.
It can be said that even though many alchemists from Yeluzi can refine high-grade elixirs, in terms of solid basic skills, they are far inferior to the ninth-grade alchemists of the Liuli Dynasty!
After all, wild alchemists often have limited conditions, so they have to take a different approach and master certain types of elixirs in order to make a living. In fact, they lack an overall understanding of the entire alchemy path.
Moreover, the Liulu Dynasty's assessment also had requirements for cultivation.
For example, monks in the Qi training stage can basically only obtain the status of ninth-grade alchemist.
Because the monks at this stage have limited cultivation, no matter how skilled they are, unless they master the rare spiritual fire by absorbing fire into the body, it will be difficult to completely refine the impurities in the medicinal materials. If you want to make the elixir into a top-grade pill, you need to go through a more advanced method.
His fire control skills and more skilled alchemy skills make up for it - and the latter two also need the support of cultivation!
The same is true for the foundation building period, the upper limit is basically an eighth-grade alchemist.
Of course, it would not be surprising if a foundation-building monk who is more than a hundred years old can be rated as an eighth-grade alchemist. However, the Alchemy Ceremony has an age limit and only accepts alchemists who are under a hundred years old to participate.
Not to mention how far such an eighth-grade alchemist can go, he is not qualified to audition at all.
And this Gu Nanxun is still young, and now that he has entered the foundation building stage, he is already an out-and-out genius, and he can also possess the level of an eighth-level alchemist. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the Phoenix Girl of Zhaotai Hou Mansion.
It's no wonder that the virtuous concubine in the palace is said to be very fond of this junior...
The expressions of the people on Danqi were dull, but they kept communicating with each other in private, and they all looked expectant.
At this moment, one of the judges said: "Each alchemist, each choose an alchemy platform and get ready to start."
"One person per person, no quarrels allowed."
"All those who quarreled will be expelled directly, and they will not be allowed to participate in the Dan Dan Ceremony for the next three sessions!"
Chapter completed!
