But for Lu Yun, who had received a comprehensive inheritance, that was all.

Looking around, he found that many young Alchemists around him were looking at the scrolls in their hands, and their faces were showing signs of fatigue.

Only a small number of people, like Lu Yun, had a faint smile on their faces after seeing the pill recipe on the scroll.

At the No.3 competition platform, a Third Grade Alchemist with dark eyes glanced over Lu Yun and Chu Yuanyao, couldn’t help but chuckle and whispered: “What good is talent? The assessment of the Alchemy Conference is not about age and talent, but about who can produce the best pill. The final champion of the conference can only be me, Mu Changfeng.”

He was now twenty-four years old, almost the oldest among the many contestants, but that didn’t mean his alchemy level was low.

Mu Changfeng had participated in the Alchemy Conference five years ago, but his performance was not ideal because he had just been promoted to a Third Grade Alchemist not long before.

After returning, he crazily improved his alchemy level, including identifying spirit herbs, improving fire-controlling techniques, and collecting various pill recipes, all to constantly perfect and enhance his skills, and participate in the Alchemy Conference to win the championship and get the conference rewards to be promoted to a Fourth Grade Alchemist.

In the large square, many young Alchemists who considered themselves geniuses were holding the scrolls in their hands, carefully studying and thinking, their expressions varied.

Quite a few people, like Mu Changfeng, had an air of certainty about winning the championship.

Such a solemn and tense atmosphere lasted for ten minutes before a crisp bell rang in the huge venue.

As the sound of the bell faded, Qin Ming, who symbolized the authority of Ling Province’s Alchemist community, stood up, glanced at the brilliant alchemists who had taken their positions, and slowly spoke.

“I presume you are all familiar with your respective competition platforms and have received your pill recipes, and have a rough idea of the refining method in your minds. Now, I will announce the rules of the competition for you.”

His calm and steady voice echoed in everyone’s ears: “First, you need to find the materials required for the pill recipe from the numerous similar spirit herbs. Then, refine and purify these spirit herbs according to your existing experience and make the corresponding pills.”

“At the junction of the two competition areas, there is a giant hourglass, which is the competition time. As long as you produce the finished pill before all the sand in the hourglass runs out, you’ll be considered successful.”

“I’ll emphasize once again, there are enough spirit herbs on each competition platform’s stone platform. As long as you produce the corresponding finished pill within the specified time, you can advance to the final.”

“Do you all understand?” Qin Ming’s voice slowly subsided.

“Yes!”

In the center of the venue, the talented Alchemists from the two competition areas shouted in unison, creating an echoing thunderous roar that resounded in all directions.

“In that case, the preliminary round of the 53rd Alchemy Conference now begins!”

Qin Ming’s aged hand gently pressed down, and the giant hourglass began working with a whistling sound.

At the same time, in the two opposite competition areas, Alchemy Furnaces were set ablaze with roaring flames, and giant screens in the four corners of the southeast, northwest broadcasted the bustling figures.

Lu Yun did not ignite the Furnace right away, but slowly looked at the scroll.

The scroll recorded a Third Grade pill called ‘Rejuvenation Pill,’ which was used to treat severe injuries. This kind of healing pill generally had a low cost-effectiveness ratio and was not easy to refine, but its market price was not as high as those of augmenting pills.

As a result, the pill recipe was relatively niche, and most Alchemists were not particularly interested in refining Rejuvenation Pills.

Using it as an assessment pill recipe, the Alchemist Alliance had many considerations. One was to make the many talented Alchemists realize that only by developing in an all-around way could they better improve their alchemy level.

In addition, it was also to make these Alchemists pay attention to the refining of such healing pills, as the demand for healing pills on the battlefield was much greater than that for augmenting pills.

Of course, the intentions of the Alchemist Alliance were not understood by these talented Alchemists. In their view, using such niche pill recipes as assessment content was simply to increase the difficulty of the assessment.

After carefully memorizing the incomplete pill recipe on the scroll, Lu Yun slowly closed his eyes, and in no time, a rough refining plan appeared in his mind.

Slowly opening his eyes, he took a deep breath and looked around to find that most people had already selected the spirit herbs and thrown them into the Alchemy Furnace to begin refinement.

Being able to become a Third Grade Alchemist before the age of 25, each of them had an extraordinary foundation, and distinguishing some spirit herbs with similar appearances but different properties was not too difficult for them.

The difficult part was to produce the finished pill within the specified time without any experience or detailed knowledge of the refining process.

From this neatly arranged but highly confusing pile of spirit herbs, the materials needed for the Rejuvenation Pill were selected. There were a total of seven types, including Dewdrop Grass, Dark Tongue Orchid, Purple Orchid Leaf Grass, Ink Leaf Lotus, Snow Lotus Seed, and so on..
