Chapter 58: The Great Comparison of Pills (1)
Two days passed in a flash, and soon it was the day of the pill competition.
Mu Liyue and the students of the academy followed the elders to the scene of the pill competition, and it was crowded with people, and the seats were full, and basically all the forces on the mainland came.
In addition to the forces with alchemists participating, other forces also wanted to make friends with some alchemists at the pill competition, so the scene was very lively.
Bai Ze said with curiosity on his face, "Liyue, there are so many people here, it's so lively. ”
Mu Liyue asked Bai Ze to sit next to her, and before she came, she had already told the people in the academy that Bai Ze was her friend and that she was also here to watch the game.
Soon, an old man in a black robe about fifty or sixty years old appeared on the test table, and as soon as Mu Liyue noticed that this old man appeared, the scene quickly fell silent.
"Hello everyone, the old man is the vice president of the Alchemist Union, and welcome everyone to participate in the annual pill competition. This year's competition is divided into three rounds, with one round held each day. The first round of the competition is to identify medicinal materials, and write the names, medicinal properties and uses of the 200 kinds of medicinal materials in front of you on a piece of paper within a stick of incense, and those who can write 150 kinds of medicinal materials correctly will enter the next round. The first round begins below. ”
After the vice president's words fell, all the people who participated in the game came on the field, and Mu Liyue took a cursory glance, there were probably more than three hundred people.
Mu Liyue looked at the medicinal herbs on the table, and she found that the biggest difficulty in identifying these medicinal herbs was that there were many kinds of medicinal herbs that looked very similar, and one of them could be mistaken if she was not careful.
However, she has a Dan God inheritance, and as soon as she sees those medicinal herbs, she can know what they are, so she is not worried about what will be wrong in the first round.
Only half of the time had passed before Mu Liyue handed over the paper, and the referee looked at Mu Liyue's eyes full of disdain, and he decided that she couldn't recognize the herbs and gave up.
The people in the audience watched Mu Liyue hand in the papers so quickly, and she was so young, most of them had the same thoughts as the referee.
"Which force is this girl from?
"But no, at such a young age, how can he be a Xuan-level alchemist?"
"She gave up so quickly, and I don't know how her faction chose people. ”
"I've seen this girl before, and she's from Shikoku Academy. ”
"Isn't the Four Nations Academy the number one college on the mainland? How could such a person be chosen to participate?"
The faces of the people from the Four Kingdoms Academy changed when they listened to the discussions around them, and they also didn't understand why Mu Liyue had finished answering so quickly.
Some people have already begun to complain about why the academy let Mu Liyue participate in the competition, causing them to lose face.
After Mu Liyue handed in the answer paper, she found a place on the stage where there were few people to stand, and the competition stipulated that she could not leave early before the results came out.
One of the presidents of the judges' alchemist union and several other prefecture-level alchemists casually took Mu Liyue's answer sheet from the referee's hand.
He glanced at Mu Liyue's paper, and the whole person was stunned, looking at the paper in his hand in disbelief.
The person next to him saw that his reaction was a little abnormal, and asked, "Old Qian, what's wrong?"
Qian Lao didn't answer, and directly handed the paper in his hand to the person next to him, but the person next to him was also stunned when he saw it.
Seeing this, the president of the Alchemist Guild took the paper in the man's hand, read it, and immediately had a smile on his face.
Qian Lao said to the president: "I didn't expect this little girl to write out all two hundred kinds of medicinal materials in such a short time, not only is not one wrong, but some medicinal properties even I don't know." ”
The president glanced at the girl in red who was standing in the corner, and couldn't help but nod: "What she wrote is right. ”
After all, he was a heaven-level alchemist, and his knowledge was much wider than that of ordinary alchemists, so he could be sure that what Mu Liyue wrote was right.
The people around the president listened to the conversation between the president and Qian Lao, and they were all curious, and they all took Mu Liyue's answer sheet to look at it.
The people in the audience didn't hear what the president was saying, but they all looked at the answer sheet of the girl in red with a shocked expression.
When the time was up, everyone handed in their answers, and some of them looked at Mu Liyue curiously, wondering who was the first to answer.
As a result, when they saw that it was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, they didn't care.
Finally, wait until the vice president comes to the stage to announce the results.
"The first place, Mu Liyue, answered correctly about two hundred kinds of medicinal materials, ten. ”
"Second place, Ji Shi, answered correctly one hundred and ninety medicinal materials, nine points. ”
"The third place, Leng Qianqian, answered correctly one hundred and eighty kinds of medicinal materials, eight points. ”
"Fourth place ......"
As soon as the results came out, the people in the Four Nations Academy were shocked, and Senior Sister Mu actually answered all of them correctly.
When Mu Liyue returned to the stage, everyone immediately stepped forward to surround her.
"Senior Sister Mu, you are so amazing, you actually answered all of them correctly. ”
"Yes, and Senior Sister Mu, you only used half a stick of incense. ”
Seeing that everyone was praising Mu Liyue, Liu Mengyu gritted her teeth on the sidelines, her eyes full of resentment.
If it weren't for Mu Liyue, she would be the one who participated in the competition now, and the person who was praised by everyone should also be her.
She clenched her hand, her nails were pinched and she didn't notice it, thinking of the scene she saw in the restaurant last time, a trace of calculation flashed in her eyes.
