Chapter 1436 The First Hundred
"No. 123, Awakening Pill, is this a pill? It's just a pill! Zero points!"
"No. 1145, Wennedan, inferior color, inferior quality, inferior touch. Six points."
…
The judges are very busy, and they have to be very careful and well-founded in how many points they give to each pill.
The approximate scoring standard is that if you refine a low-grade Wen Neidan, you can only get a passing score of six points. Refining a low-grade Awakening Pill will give a higher score, because the Awakening Pill is more difficult to refine than the Wenner Pill. The score of the low-grade Awakening Pill is six to seven points.
In addition, every time the quality of an eighth-level elixir is improved, it can be improved by 0.5 points. For example, the lowest score for the middle-grade Wen Neidan is 6.5 points. In addition to the additional points such as color and smell, each elixir, even if it is of the same quality, has a different score.
As for the ninth-level elixir, every time the quality is improved, it will be directly improved by one point! Because it is too difficult to improve the quality of ninth-level elixirs.
"Huh? I finally saw the Fire Blade Pill."
It was about half an hour before any of the judges saw the Fire Blade Pill.
Of the 200 people who entered the semi-finals, less than 30 people refined the Fire Blade Pill, which was enough to show how precious a ninth-level alchemist was in Manzhou. Manzhou is the weakest among several continents, both in terms of the number and quality of its alchemists.
You must know that in Zhongzhou, which is full of talents, there are not only an overwhelming number of ninth-level alchemists, but the number is hundreds of times that of Manzhou.
"No. 488, a low-quality Fire Blade Pill. From the color point of view, the color seems to be uneven, indicating that there were small flaws when the solution was fused and the pill was condensed. Eight points."
"I'll give it eight and one."
"Eight and two."
The judges gave detailed scores one after another. It seems that the lowest scores for level nine elixirs are all high scores of eight.
"Huh? This is a medium-quality Fire Blade Pill!"
I don’t know how long it took, but the judges let out an exclamation. Someone has refined a medium-quality Fire Blade Pill!
This is definitely something shocking and exciting.
As alchemy masters, they naturally understand better than anyone else how difficult it is to improve the level of elixirs. What's more, this is the first time for most alchemists to come into contact with and refine the Fire Blade Pill.
"No. 001, Yuchi Tiancang, is indeed the proud disciple of our chief alchemist of the Great Barbarian Dynasty."
After looking at the competition cards, the judges were not so surprised.
Yuchi Tiancang is the direct disciple of King Yuchi Alchemy and a recognized genius in the Yuchi Alchemy Family.
In Daman, there are very few alchemy families. The Yuchi family counts as one, and the Ou family barely counts as one.
The reason why there are so few is because without strong power and financial resources, ordinary families are simply not enough to cultivate powerful alchemists. They simply do not have so many resources for their subordinates to consume.
Although alchemists gain both fame and fortune after becoming famous, every alchemist does not know how many medicinal materials he has consumed before he becomes famous. Zhang Yifeng in his previous life was known as the youngest Alchemy King in the mainland, but he didn't know how many medicinal materials he wasted in the first years of learning alchemy.
In this world, the so-called monsters are actually accumulated resources.
No matter how evil a person is, if he has no resources and talents, he is useless. On the contrary, if you have the resources, even an ordinary person can become a peerless master step by step. It's just that the path for a monster to become a peerless master is countless times shorter than that for ordinary people.
"Two minutes past nine."
"I'll give it nine-point three."
"Nine points."
Even if there are strict scoring rules, each judge's score will still deviate by a few tenths of a point, but this is normal for people. After all, there are still subtle differences in the scoring standards in everyone's mind.
There is no doubt that Yuchi Tiancang's Fire Blade Pill has the highest rating among pills currently.
After Yuchi Tiancang, there is the Fire Blade Pill refined by Ou Qingyu.
Although Ou Qingyu completed the elixir the fastest, its quality was not inferior to Yuchi Tiancang at all. It was actually a middle-grade Fire Blade elixir.
Among the four disciples of the Great Alchemy King, only Lu Qiuji had the lowest quality, only a low-grade Fire Blade Pill. The other three were all of medium-grade quality, but their ratings differed based on color and luster.
"This... top quality Fire Blade Pill!"
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly there was an exclamation from the judges’ bench.
Someone has refined the top quality Fire Blade Pill.
In order to refine high-grade elixirs, there are very strict requirements on the alchemist's mental strength, flame intensity and fire control ability.
"Who is this? He can actually refine the top-grade Fire Blade Pill. Huh? It's him! The top-grade pill has exceeded our expectations. I give it ten points."
"I'll give it ten points too!"
"very."
The judges spoke one after another, and the quality improved to another level, so the score naturally increased by one point. This top-quality Fire Blade Pill received full marks from all ten judges, and there was no doubt at all.
Because the judges know that in the semi-finals, there are definitely not many alchemists who can refine top-grade Fire Blade Pills.
…
Time passed, and about an hour later, the voice of General Jin Jia came.
"You have been waiting for a long time. The results of this rematch have come out."
General Jin Jia's voice fell, and the noisy square instantly became quiet.
"Next, I will first announce the alchemists ranked fifty-one to one hundred in this alchemy conference. You may not be able to participate in the finals, but you are still the top one hundred powerful alchemists in Manzhou."
"No. 100, No. 321, Golden Light Kingdom's revolving escort, sixty-seven points."
"Ninety-nine...No. 482, Gaofeng Kingdom, Naiguantuan, sixty-seven point one minute."
…
At this moment, in the crowd, the alchemist whose name was called by General Jin Jia didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.
The first hundred sounds good. But there is no reward at all for this ranking.
Moreover, of the two hundred people participating in the semi-finals, only the top fifty alchemists are eligible to participate in the finals. In other words, those whose names are read now are all eliminated.
Of course, at this moment, not only the alchemist whose name was called had complicated thoughts, but also the alchemist whose name was not called was also complicated.
If you don't call them by name, they are worried that they won't even make it into the top 100. If you call them by name, it means they will be eliminated and will have no chance to participate in the finals.
In this complicated mood, the ranking has reached fifty-ninth place.
The alchemist, whose name has not yet been called, finally doesn't have to be so entangled in his heart. Many alchemists are already praying.
"Hurry up and read my name. It's better to be in the top 100 than not even in the top 100."
"Yes, if you make it to the top 100, you can still be named. Even if you are not qualified to participate in the finals, you can still be favored by some big families. You don't have to worry about having no place to go in the future."
"Read my name, I will be next, it must be me."
