"What's this person's name?" Nie Xiao then asked.

"Ming Haotian. Lu Xiansheng replied.

"Haotian, such a domineering name. Nie Xiao seemed to be thinking about something.

"This Ming Haotian is indeed a fierce rival, and I don't know which race he was born from the combination of the human race, but there are very few ordinary half-human and half-sea clans, so the outside world rarely knows about his affairs. I only know that he is currently following the three princes of the Jiaolong Clan. Lu Xiansheng said.

"The three princes have such an assistant, so isn't their eldest prince?" Nie Xiao seemed a little surprised, if even the assistant of the third prince of the Jiaolong clan had such alchemy strength, then wouldn't the remaining two themselves be difficult to defeat.

Moreover, there are alchemy masters of several other races, so the chances of victory are much lower.

"No, you're wrong, at present, this Ming Haotian invited by their three princes is the strongest in the first test. Lu Xiansheng said.

"Oh. "Nie Xiao seems to understand, it seems that it is not that any prince must be the strongest when he is older, and it also depends on personal development.

"Let's go to the side and wait for the results of the exam, there are still two hours before the end of the preliminary exam. Lu Xiansheng said.

"Hmm. After Nie Xiao answered, he silently walked to the side of the rest area and waited.

At this time, Ming Haotian, who was sitting not far away, couldn't help but look at him as well. The two looked at each other, clearly feeling a strong hostility, and it seemed that they were very unwilling to steal his limelight.

Nie Xiao didn't pay attention to this Ming Haotian, but closed his eyes and waited for the results of the preliminary examination with peace of mind.

Two hours later, the preliminary examination was over, and all the contestants walked out of the examination venue, and there was a commotion outside the venue, some with confidence on their faces, and some with frustrated faces.

Nie Xiao closed his eyes and rested calmly, as if the noise outside had no effect on him at all.

Soon, an examiner took a list full of names and results and pasted it on a stone pillar outside the examination room, and the contestants rushed to find their names.

"I passed, yes, I passed, I was ninety-five, father, mother, I succeeded!" a sea tribesman with thorns in his back jumped happily as if he had won.

"I failed again, I didn't have a name on the list, I had to come back next time. A spiky mouth began to pack up his belongings in a decadent manner.

Indeed, this time the competition pressure is very high, 100 people are selected from thousands of people to enter the semi-finals, and then 50 people are selected to enter the semi-finals, and the semi-finals are selected to select the top 10, and then the final is to judge the top three.

The whole process includes theory, elixir test, alchemy technique, alchemy purification and finally the quality test of Chengdan.

The person who can stand out in such a rigorous test is indeed a 100% alchemy master, and it is only natural that he will be rewarded richly, and it can also convince all ethnic groups.

"What's going on? The first one this time is not Ming Haotian?" came a surprised voice from the sea clan.

"Lu Xiansheng, that poor prince, how is it possible, he is at most the level of a fourth-grade alchemist, how can he have such a good grasp of theory. ”

All the people of the Sea Clan looked at Lu Xiansheng's location one after another, some of their eyes were puzzled, some were envious, and some were jealous.

"Yo, Brother Xiansheng is on the top list, it's really an eye-opener. A slightly sinister voice came, making people feel very uncomfortable listening to it.

As soon as Nie Xiao turned around, he found a Sea Clan man who looked somewhat similar to Lu Xiansheng standing not far from them, followed by a human being, holding a folding fan in his hand and with a graceful demeanor.

"Brother Xiang Sheng has won the award, I'm just lucky. Lu Xiansheng is neither humble nor arrogant.

"This time, I specially recruited a fourth-grade top-level alchemist from the Terrans, I didn't expect that there would be no comparison to you, why don't you introduce this person next to you?" Lu Xiangsheng seemed to have already seen that Nie Xiao was the one who got this result.

"In Xia Nie Xiao, I have seen Prince Xiang Sheng. Nie Xiao arched his hand and did not make any unnecessary explanations.

Lu Xiansheng didn't say anything, and Nie Xiao could only wait and see what happened.

"Nie Xiao, you have such talent, how can you be willing to join me, the younger brother, or you do things for me, how much he will give you, I will give you two copies, or even three or five copies. Lu Xiangsheng did not hide his solicitation at all.

"Brother Xiangsheng, you can't change the participants in the conference. Lu Xiansheng seemed to be reminding him intentionally.

"I don't need you to speak, of course I understand this, I don't want a place in this competition, I want him, what's the use of such an alchemist wasting it in the hands of a poor boy like you? In the end, it's not that nothing can be done, it can shine in my hands, don't you say, Nie Xiao?" Lu Xiangsheng looked at Nie Xiao and said.

Lu Xiansheng clenched his fists with both hands, the anger in his heart seemed to be about to burn, and the anger was almost uncontrollable, if it wasn't for Lu Xiangsheng instructing everyone to suppress him, he would not have ended up in this dismal end, and now he has the idea of Nie Xiao again.

And there is no way for him to do it at all, in terms of cultivation, Lu Xiangsheng has already reached the cultivation of fifty-five qi, and in terms of qualifications, he is also a relatively small one, not to mention other resources, and he has to go out to hunt some other races and sell them to the sea clan market in order to supply his own cultivation.

"Hey. Nie Xiao gently patted Lu Xiansheng's shoulder, and then said to Lu Xiangsheng: "How can Nie be favored by Prince Xiangsheng, I am just a casual person, I got the help of Prince Xiansheng at sea and was able to survive, this trip is only to repay the favor, so I ask the prince to forgive me." ”

"Okay, a good one just to repay the favor, let's go, since you have made up your mind, let's see the real chapter on the field, Shu Yulin, let's go." "This prince Xiangsheng looks very deep in the city, but it doesn't seem to be a procrastination, and he left when he saw that the solicitation failed.

Then Nie Xiao received a challenge from Ming Haotian, of course, he still refused in order to reduce the incident, this time it was an accident to come to the bottom of the sea, and he still had important things to do, the most important thing was to win the alchemy conference, and then it seemed that he could leave this place in the name of alchemy.

This is a method that Nie Xiao can think of for the time being, when the time comes, with his identity as a fifth-level alchemist, I believe that it will not be difficult to take Fu Rou away, and now he is respectful to these people because he may still have to ask for help when the time comes, so it is better to be careful in everything.

Soon, the competition of the alchemy conference continued to heat up, and finally it was the time for alchemy to become a pill.

Nie Xiao won the third place in the previous competition, this Ming Haotian seemed to be crazy and wanted to compete with Nie Xiao, but Nie Xiao didn't care at all, and deliberately released water in the first two to lose him.

But I didn't expect that there was another person catching up behind, this person's name was Han Lulu, it seemed to be an alchemist from the mermaid clan, and he seemed to be young, but his alchemy technique was really jaw-dropping.

Compared to Nie Xiao, who mixed all the medicinal materials into a ball of alchemy, this woman's alchemy technique is as beautiful as poetry, all kinds of medicinal materials dance with her waves, and finally bloom with a brilliant color, which makes people exclaim happily after watching.

Although the color is not very good, the technique was originally to increase the ornamentality of alchemy, so in this test, she achieved the first place, so she also surpassed Nie Xiao and reached the second position now.

However, the most important thing in alchemy is to look at the purity and quality of the elixir refined, so no matter how fancy the technique is, the final evaluation is still based on the quality of the elixir.

Seeing Han Lulu's fancy technique, the elders on the stage all shook their heads: "Not meticulously refining the pill, but coming up with these fancy moves, is not the original intention of alchemy at all." ”

Several directors on the side glared at them and said, "What do you know, a group of old men who don't know how to appreciate, have you seen the support rate of everyone below?"

Obviously, most of these directors are from the mermaid clan, and they are all women, so they must be quite supportive of Han Lulu, and the elders are not easy to offend the masses, so Han Lulu was sentenced to win.

Ming Haotian also snorted coldly after announcing the ranking: "A group of guys who don't understand alchemy. ”

Therefore, from this point of view, Nie Xiao's biggest enemy is still Ming Haotian, his alchemy path is very similar to his own, and he will be able to compete in the final Cheng Dan.

Finally, there is the competition of the top ten, everyone first goes to the elixir garden of the Sea Clan Alchemist Alliance to choose ten kinds of elixir, and then refines the elixir they think is the best in the competition, and then there will be various elders to evaluate.

The evaluation starts from several aspects, the first is the quality of Cheng Dan, followed by the quantity, and then the type of elixir used, if the less elixir is used to refine the more elixir, then the probability of winning will be much greater.

Those who are familiar with alchemy will know why it is evaluated in this way, and various auxiliary materials must be added to each pill in the process of becoming a pill, and the less it is added, the better the quality of the pill, and the strongest alchemy master at present cannot refine the medicine without adding any auxiliary materials.

Therefore, the selection of auxiliary materials can also be said to be quite critical, and the amount of use is also related to the understanding of medicinal properties.

If it is a strong alchemist, he will choose an elixir that has less impact on the medicinal properties but requires more energy and time to refine, while an alchemist who does not have enough products can only choose auxiliary materials with strong auxiliary effects and a great impact on the medicinal effect for alchemy, and the medicinal effect of Cheng Dan will also be greatly affected.
