When the exceptional result appeared, the whole scene was in an uproar. Many forces trying to win over Alchemy Geniuses started to get unsettled.
‘Exceptional’ is a dazzling word.
That’s because, many times, it is basically impossible for exceptional results to appear in alchemy assessments! This represents that in this link, the alchemist did it flawlessly, almost without a single flaw, just now can it be called exceptional.
But that’s just being ‘called’ exceptional.
Being called exceptional, and actually getting exceptional, are two different concepts.
For example, among more than a dozen judges, if you are only theoretically exceptional, you may encounter a good-tempered one who gives you an exceptional score, or encounter a picky one who doesn’t give you an exceptional score, who do you go to reason with?
But more than a dozen judges, plus the Chief Tester, all gave exceptional scores.
That means Yang Chen did it so well that more than a dozen judges had nothing to say! It has already gone beyond theoretical perfection, it’s true perfection, with no one able to find any faults.
The most awkward expression was that of Elder Yu from the Huangshan Sect. At this moment, he stood there, staring blankly at the scene, a little unable to react to what was happening. Was Yang Chen actually an Alchemy Genius?
The key point is that Yang Chen obtained another exceptional result.
When he was being assessed in martial arts, he got one exceptional result after another.
Now another exceptional result?
Did this little guy have a thing with exceptional results? That’s not how it works.
It’s worth mentioning that the Luo-surnamed beauty from Yanhua Pool was also here.
She heard that Yang Chen was going to participate in the alchemy assessment yesterday, so she simply came here since she had nothing to do with it. She was just going to watch these little guys refine elixirs to pass the time. As a result, who would have known that Yang Chen’s performance would shock her jaw-droppingly?
Although she didn’t know much about alchemy, she knew the meaning of exceptional.
Thinking of this, the Luo-surnamed beauty murmured: “When I first saw this kid, I knew there was something interesting about this little guy, the more I look, the more pleasant he seems. Turns out this kid not only has strong Divine Soul Power but is also an Alchemy Genius.”
Yang Chen’s material selection assessment undoubtedly stirred up waves.
The most frustrated one was the genius alchemist who obtained a second-class result, whose score was completely suppressed by Yang Chen.
In this way, after the material selection assessment, Yang Chen undoubtedly became the most eye-catching member in the field of alchemy.
Following that, it was the second level, the Fire Control Assessment.
The Fire Control Assessment doesn’t take too much time compared to material selection. It typically takes about the time it takes for a cup of tea to assess one, and those who are fast may even finish before they fully control the fire.
It can’t be helped, the Fire Control assessment is difficult, even harder than material selection.
Because the pill furnace used in the assessment is specially prepared, it’s on the verge of exploding due to an imbalance in fire control. If the candidate’s fire control skills are not enough, they cannot save the dying pill furnace with their fire control skills.
Many geniuses stepped up, and with a bang, the pill furnace exploded.
Fortunately, a prohibition was set up on the pill furnace, so the explosion was just an illusion. However, it was true that these geniuses failed in fire control.
Soon, it was Yang Chen’s turn to play.
Yang Chen’s appearance undoubtedly became the focus of the whole audience.
Everyone was curious whether this young man, who was able to get exceptional results in the material selection stage, could perform well in the fire control stage?
“In fact, there is a part of luck in the material selection stage, some geniuses just happen to encounter the elixirs they are familiar with. Yang Chen is just like that, just happened to encounter the elixirs he is familiar with, that’s why he can get those materials out so flawlessly. In my opinion, the exceptional result in the material selection assessment is just a fluke!”
“Fire Control is a legitimate assessment of whether the alchemist’s foundation is solid!”
“If he doesn’t do well in this assessment, hehe, it means that this kid’s alchemy talent is just average, otherwise, how could he be unaware of the importance of fire control?”
Elder Yu of the Huangshan Sect frowned, not knowing whether he wanted Yang Chen’s performance to be excellent or not.
Yang Chen didn’t care what others thought or the discussions of others. At this moment, looking at the collapsing pill furnace, he made a virtual grasp with his hand. Immediately, a ball of flame was born out of thin air, transformed by his True Qi, directly rushing into the bottom of the pill furnace. “What a rigid alchemy technique, not complicated at all!” “Did this kid never learn any alchemy techniques?”
“Too rigid, can this kid succeed?”
“Why does it look like this kid’s understanding of fire control doesn’t even reach the basics?
At first glance, Yang Chen’s fire control technique was indeed not fancy, very methodical, as if a novice was controlling the fire.
And this is indeed Yang Chen’s fire control technique.
Because fire control itself is a rigorous task, being complicated is ultimately just an appearance. The essence of fire control is actually control and understanding of the temperature. That is fire control. If one only goes for complexity in controlling fire, the meaning of complexity is merely fancy.
For Yang Chen, fire control never needed those fancy appearances.
On the contrary, many fire control novices have a sense that only by playing with fire that creates flowers can they be regarded as having a deep understanding of fire control. However, these people don’t know that playing with fire that creates flowers is what Yang Chen had played with and discarded.
Yang Chen’s understanding of fire control had already reached another level. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it had returned to simplicity.
Thinking about this, he became more focused. In just a few breaths, the pill furnace seemed to behave itself as if it was going to collapse and then turned around in an instant. It became even more stable afterwards.
Not only did the pill furnace stop shaking, but in a short period of time, the elixir used for testing emitted a pill fragrance.
This made the judges lose their color one by one.
The elixir used for testing was designed to explode the furnace, which can be said to be a basically dead elixir. Did Yang Chen save it with his fire control technique and refine it again?
It’s not that this is impossible, but it is unthinkable to finish it in such a short time.
It’s like saving a critically injured person in the blink of an eye.
“It’s done.” Yang Chen stood up. Since he had refined even the dead elixir, it was naturally over.
When Yang Chen stood up, the judges and examiners were all stunned.
In a short period of time, the judges who reacted one after another shouted: “Exceptional!”
“My score is exceptional too!”
“Exceptional!”
Looking at it, these judges had unanimously and without exception given Yang Chen exceptional results.
They had no choice but to admit that they had been racking their brains, trying to find a reason not to give Yang Chen exceptional results!
The Chief Examiner had a stiff-faced moment then, seeing the pill furnace still emitting pill fragrance, he gave a bitter smile: “Exceptional!”
Nobody was not surprised.
Because, as many sessions of alchemy assessments had been held, there had rarely been any monsters like Yang Chen..
