Rod's entry did not attract much attention from the surrounding mages.

At this time, almost all the mages' attention was focused on North in the field.

North has already begun to carry out the steps of crude potions, even if the potions are rough, the proficiency shown by North is also not jerky, and the speed of rough processing is more than that of the rest of the mages in the rematch field.

Even in the crude process, from the materials that North took out, these mages around him could see some anomalies.

When Rod received the materials provided for the rematch, he immediately smelled a faint fragrance. Rhodes has a clear memory of this strange fragrance, which is the fragrance produced after North completed the refining of potions in the preliminary round.

Compared with the smell in the preliminary competition, the fragrance at this time is much lighter, but if you smell it carefully, you can still find abnormalities. This is also the reason why there are mages around the venue to guide the flow of air all the time, and if it weren't for these mages around, the smell of refining potions would probably fill the entire field.

Compared to the ordinary materials prepared by the rest of the mages, these materials prepared by North are extremely precious, similar to the kind of fruit that North took out when refining before, and one has also appeared at this time, and has been added to the crude instruments.

Looking at the materials that North took out, even if he said that he was going to refine it directly, I am afraid that it would make other mages believe it.

In the process of rough production, all these materials will be mixed to achieve the effect of gathering the essence part, if the effect of the material is too strong and does not match with other materials, it will also affect the effect of rough production.

Because of this, not all materials can be directly added to the crude process, and some powerful materials are only suitable for use in refining, and adding the crude process at will will only reduce the effect of this material. What to look at in the rough production is the overall quality of the material.

This point, North in the field is also very clear, North chose to take out this rare material in the rough production, which can only show that his rough production, the overall quality of the material is higher, in order to match the fruit he took out.

Arriving at the crude potion site, Rhodes looked back a little to see where North was, then ignored it and began to crudely craft the potion.

Compared to the steps of refining potions, the process of making crude potions is not particularly complicated. The crude process of potions is nothing more than the mage placing the refining materials in a cauldron filled with water, and then changing the temperature of the flames below to a certain extent according to the fire resistance thaumaturgy, so as to obtain the crude potion that gathers the essence of the materials.

Since it is only crude potions, there are no strict requirements in many aspects, even if the amount of materials added is too much or too little, or the temperature is not up to standard, it does not matter.

Most of the mistakes made in the rough process can be remedied in the refining process, but again, once the refining process goes wrong, then the refining of the potion is over.

In the process of crude potions, the best way to reflect the mage's ability is the choice of potion recipes, rather than regulating the temperature of the flames.

In the semi-finals, in addition to choosing the theme of refining potions, the mage was also given certain materials, requiring the mage to add these materials to it when refining, which greatly tested the mage's mastery of the properties of the materials.

Since each mage gets different materials, many mages don't know how to match these materials when they come to the field, so they have to stay in the field, thinking hard about what to do with them.

Around the venue of the semi-finals, there are a number of mages who supervise the conduct of the potions competition, and these overseers will always keep an eye on all the mages in the venue to prevent them from breaking the rules.

With the presence of these overseers, it is similar to a mage who does not know what to do with the materials they get, and they are included in the spatial ring, or directly thrown these materials into the fire, will be directly discovered, and it will be counted as a refining failure.

Long before North came on the field, several mages with this idea were expelled from the playing field, and this undoubtedly gave other mages a reminder.

However, for North, there is nothing difficult about this. If it weren't for feeling the atmosphere around the venue, North would have even given up the crude process and refined the potion.

North naturally has his own unique method of handling these materials, and in a very short period of time, a variety of recipes for material combinations appeared in North's mind.

Since the theme of refining potions this time is related to spiritual power, the materials provided to the players, although they are to increase the difficulty, are not too outrageous, and they are also materials related to spiritual power.

In the previous research on potion refining, North had handled a large number of similar materials, and North did not find it difficult to deal with these materials.

In the eyes of the other mages, when North got these materials and came to the center of the rematch, he began to quickly add a large amount of materials to the cauldron used for refining.

North's act of adding materials was extremely smooth, as if he didn't think about it at all, he simply took out the materials from the spatial ring, and directly added all these materials to it.

Compared to the rest of the mages around him, North added materials much faster, and the whole process of adding materials was extremely smooth.

Around North, other mages were unable to choose the amount of materials to be used in a short period of time, and even before coming to the cauldron used for refining, they needed to think for a long time before they could confirm the amount of a material according to the nature of the material.

For these mages, there are also some restrictions in the Potions competition to prevent them from spending too much time on the field.

In the semi-finals, a mage's refining time on the field is stipulated, and once the time limit is exceeded, a mage who still has not completed the refining is also counted as a failure.

As if feeling North's speed, the mages around him who were originally slowly refining couldn't help but speed up all of a sudden under this pressure.

However, for these mages, if they are not particularly skilled, the effect of rash acceleration may not be too good, and in just a short period of time, there have been many mages who are trying to refine quickly have made mistakes, and in the end they can only leave the scene in disgrace.

When North came on the field, the atmosphere around the entire arena changed significantly, and in addition to the fact that North could feel this change, the mages who participated in the competition next to North felt this more clearly.
