Lu Zhe looked intently at the medicinal herbs that were slightly tumbling in the flames in Dingzhong.

Because of the experience of the previous refining failures, Lu Zhe was almost more careful and cautious than anyone else this time, and the power of the Yuan Shen was exerted to the maximum, covering every inch of the flames and every inch of the Dingzhong, even the horns were not spared. The phenomena and reactions produced when each medicinal herb is fused will be sent back to his mind in a timely manner.

When Lu Zhe carried out the last refining, there were some people around him who were eliminated because of the failure of refining, and when they left, some of them reluctantly glanced back at the arena, some sighed and regretted that their skills were not at home, and some people couldn't pull out the.

"Hmph, a bunch of useless talents who will catch the blind if they leave the prescription" On the referee's seat, Yao Shouyi looked at the alchemists who left because of the refining failure, slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said with a sneer. In the moment when he was drinking tea, three more alchemists were eliminated.

Yao Shouyi's cloudy eyes flashed slightly, he looked at the alchemists who were still persevering in alchemy in the audience, a trace of satisfaction and happiness flashed in his eyes, and then he glanced at Ziche Qianqin intentionally or unintentionally.

Ziche Qianqin was still closing her eyes at this moment and carefully feeling the changes in the medicinal materials in Ding, her pretty face was covered with beads of sweat, and her breathing was a little short, but there was no hint of urgency between her eyebrows, and she looked like she was old and serious.

Looking at Ziche Qianqin, who was at ease, Yao Shouyi's eyes flashed with a solemn look, and he no longer looked at her.

Lu Zhe's head appeared with a detailed picture of the interior of Dingzhong. He watched intently as the medicinal herbs churning in the flames in Dingzhong withered little by little, and then turned into a cluster of powder.

"Very good" Lu Zhe looked at the medicinal herbs that had been turned into powder in Dingzhong. Said with satisfaction. After saying that, he picked up another medicinal herb on the table and threw it into the ding. Then refining, since there was not much time left, Lu Zhe decided to take a risk this time and refine all the medicinal materials together, but this would cause a great burden to his Yuan Shen.

Time was running out, and the sand in the large hourglass on the left side of the referee's bench was leaking rapidly, and there was not much sand on it.

"Oh, someone has succeeded?" suddenly came from the audience with an exclamation, it turned out that someone had successfully refined the elixir.

The alchemist, numbered two hundred and thirty-five, lifted the pod, then took out a round white elixir from it and put it in a bottle.

Looking at the pill in the bottle. The alchemist had a relieved smile on his face, and then handed the pill to the attendant who was waiting on the side.

"It seems that there are still masters," Yao Shouyi looked at the alchemist who had succeeded in alchemy, and said with some joy. His eyes looked at the alchemist, and he saw that there were four silver tripods on the badge he wore on his chest, and he was about thirty-five years old.

"No wonder" Yao Shouyi looked at the badge on the man's chest and said as he should.

Siding Intermediate Alchemist refining a Liangding Silver Pill should have been a matter of hand-to-hand, but because there was no prescription, this Siding Intermediate Alchemist was delayed for such a long time, but fortunately, the experience he had accumulated before helped him. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to guarantee that he would be able to pass this hurdle smoothly.

The alchemist who took the lead in refining the pill raised his arms at the audience, and suddenly the audience erupted in a burst of warm applause and cheers, which lasted for a long time.

Just after this alchemist finished refining, several more senior alchemists refined the pill one after another. Every time someone succeeds, thunderous applause erupts, after all, it is also worthy of admiration to be able to refine the elixir in such a short time under such difficult conditions.

"Have you finally seen it?" Yao Shouyi said calmly as he looked at the more and more alchemists who had succeeded one after another. After speaking. His eyes looked at Ziche Qianqin, and then at Lu Zhe, Bai Chen, Li Wentao, Sima Jing and others, all of whom were seeded players in this competition. They are all people who have been greatly appreciated by the presidents of the Alchemist Guilds of various countries, and they are the geniuses of the red rabbits in Lu Bu and the horses.

"I don't know if these little guys can advance smoothly," Yao Shouyi said silently in his heart.

The yellow sand in the hourglass was less than the height of an adult man's little finger. It's still falling at a rapid pace.

Ziche Qianqin, who closed her eyes tightly, suddenly opened her eyes, a trace of excitement flashed in her black eyes, and then slapped Ding's body, the lid flew up, and a white pill flew out of Dingzhong, which was caught by Ziche Qianqin and put in a bottle.

......The audience erupted in thunderous applause, and this applause was even more enthusiastic than the previous ones, because this time the alchemy was successful in a little girl.

Looking at the successful alchemy Ziche Qianqin, a trace of solemnity appeared on Yao Shouyi's face, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Behind Ziche Qianqin, the successful alchemy was Sima Jing, this charming little girl after handing over the elixir she had refined to the attendant next to her, her eyes looked at Ziche Qianqin who was wiping her sweat on the side, and a trace of unwillingness and jealousy flashed in her black water spirit eyes.

The audience gave this hard-working little girl the applause she deserved.

The yellow sand was still leaking rapidly, and there was still half a finger high.

"Drink" Li Wentao suddenly opened his eyes, and then an expression of excitement and excitement appeared on his face, he did not slap the body of the Ding like others, and used spiritual power to shake the pill out, but slowly extinguished the fire in the Ding, and then opened the lid of the Ding, carefully took out the pill from it and put it in the bottle, and finally handed it to the attendant who was waiting on the side.

The audience cheered and applauded the cautious young man.

"It's a success!" The picture in Bai Chen's mind showed that the Gathering Pill in the Ding had been formed, and he took out the pill when he patted the Ding's body.

After handing over the pill to the attendant on the side, he looked at Lu Zhe, who was still alchemizing, and a trace of expectation and encouragement flashed in his deep eyes, and he turned around and stepped off the stage.

"Not bad, not bad" Watching Ziche Qianqin and the others complete the alchemy one after another, Yao Shouyi nodded happily and with relief, and then his eyes fell on Lu Zhe, who was still struggling to persevere.

He looked at Lu Zhe, who was sweating like rain but still gritted his teeth and persevered, and glanced at the hourglass beside him out of the corner of his eye, at this moment there was very little yellow sand in the hourglass, and it would be leaked in more than ten seconds at most, and according to Yao Shouyi's many years of alchemy experience, it was impossible for Lu Zhe to succeed in refining within the specified time in his current appearance.

The yellow sand that was leaking down at a rapid pace became less and less, and finally, after about ten seconds, all the yellow sand in the hourglass was leaked, and the game time was over!!

"Hey, it's a pity" Yao Shouyi shook his head, feeling sorry for Lu Zhe, he originally had hope for Lu Zhe, but this time it seemed that the hope was completely annihilated.

There was a sigh of embarrassment in the audience again, feeling pity and regret for the alchemists who were still working hard for alchemy.

Jiang Sheng, who was beside Yao Shouyi, stood up, picked up the drumstick from the table and came to the big gong that was so tall that he raised the drumstick in his hand, and the audience in the audience hurriedly covered their ears.

Just when the drumstick in his hand was about to hit the gong, Lu Zhe, who had closed his eyes tightly, suddenly opened his eyes, and at the same time slapped the tripod body with both hands like lightning, the lid of the tripod flew up, and a pill flew out of the tripod.

The people in the audience were silent when they saw this wonderful scene, and even Jiang Sheng, who was about to beat the gong, was attracted to it, and after a while, overwhelming applause resounded throughout the venue, happy and glad for this man who had succeeded in refining at the last moment.

"Bang" The drumstick in Jiang Sheng's hand hit the gong, but the loud gong was covered by louder cheers and applause.

"The second round is over," Jiang Sheng announced in a loud voice.

"This kid, just play some suspense" Yao Shouyi looked at Lu Zhe, and said with some palpitations in his heart, to be honest, he really looked at this handsome kid differently this time.

"Good job" Bai Chen looked at Lu Zhe, who had succeeded in alchemy, and cheered.

Lu Zhe stood motionless in his right hand holding the medicine bottle containing the Gathering Pill in his right hand, the sweat had already wet his clothes, at this moment he felt that his arms and whole body were faintly trembling, it was really too hanging, one second later, he would be eliminated.

Yao Shouyi stood up, pressed his hands slightly a few times, and suppressed the cheers and applause of the audience, and then the old voice came out:

"Congratulations on advancing to the next round of the tournament, and I would like to congratulate you from the bottom of my heart."

After he finished speaking, a group of men in alchemy suits took away all the refined pills, while those who did not refine them were eliminated and walked off the stage one by one with their heads down.

"Well done" Bai Chen came to the stage and hugged Lu Zhe and said happily.

Lu Zhe smiled a little weakly, he felt exhausted now, the alchemy just now had almost exhausted all his energy, the second round was already so difficult, he didn't know if he still had a chance to break through the third round.

"The third round is five days away," Yao Shouyi's old voice came into the ears of everyone present. (To be continued......)
