Ling Shuangzi's voice lagged behind, Zi Chen, Lan Xi, Yun Xi and Chen Xi ignored it at all, and walked directly to the four ice hockey balls that were closer to them, stood up, and waited for the game to start. Seeing this, a trace of annoyance flashed on Ling Shuangzi's face, but he didn't say anything, turned around and walked to an ice hockey puck, and the others were already in their places. Seeing this, Elder Hao said in a loud voice: "I announce that the first game of the competition will officially start now!"

As soon as Elder Hao's words fell, eight flames instantly rose up in the square. Compared with the caution of Ling Shuangzi and the others, Zi Chen, Lan Xi, Yun Xi and Chen Xi were much more relaxed. The four of them methodically controlled the flames and slowly surrounded the ice ball, entered the ice ball through the small hole on the ice ball, and rolled the medicinal materials in the ice ball into the tongue of fire, slowly purifying the essence of the medicinal materials. This process seems simple, but in fact, it requires extremely high alchemists' spiritual power and soul power, as well as their ability to control fire.

Throughout the process, the alchemist needs to carefully control the temperature of the flame in the area where it comes into contact with the ice pucks to prevent them from melting. In addition, it is necessary to carefully control the flame entering the ice hockey so that the flame in the center can reach the temperature required for purifying the medicinal herbs, and ensure that the temperature of the outer flame does not melt the puck. This kind of operation requires extremely high fire control ability, and generally only alchemists of the tenth order Medicine Emperor level and above can do it. Elder Hao gave such a contest in the first level, and originally did not hope that any of them would succeed, and the result of the contest depended on who persevered for a long time while operating according to the requirements!

Half an hour later, Zi Chen and Lan Xi first withdrew the flame that wrapped the ice ball in mid-air, and at this time, the entire ice ball was still the same as before, without the slightest damage. The only difference is that the medicinal herb in the ice hockey has been refined, and the essence of that medicinal herb has been put into the white jade bottle in front of them by Zi Chen and Lan Xi, and even the purified ashes have been taken out and placed on the high platform on the side. Seeing this scene, several Inner Gate Elders and Taishang Elders who were sitting around to watch the competition suddenly got up and looked at the square with disbelief on their faces

Seeing this scene, Ling Shuangzi and the others were in a hurry, and unconsciously accelerated the speed of their subordinates, and made two "bumps" in succession, and the flames in front of the two disciples soared, melting the ice ball in front of them in an instant, and even the medicinal herb wrapped in the ice ball was directly burned to ashes.

An hour later, Yun Xi and Chen Xi also completed the refining of the medicinal materials perfectly, and at this time, Ling Shuangzi and a male disciple were still holding on there, to be precise, the two of them had been trying to control the temperature of the flame wrapped in the ice hockey ball so that the ice ball would not melt, as for the rest, they had no time to take care of it at all! However, the nine disciples did not give up because of the defeat in the first game, and still insisted on continuing the game.

After announcing the victory of Zi Chen, Lan Xi, Yun Xi and Chen Xi, Elder Hao immediately announced: "Now let's start the second round of the competition, and the content of the competition is to distinguish the medicinal materials: we have prepared a total of five kinds of medicines, these potions are not of high grade, they are all four-grade intermediate potions, these potions are provided by our inner door elders, they are newly refined, and they are not those that everyone is familiar with. Our requirement is that you can use the potion in your hands, analyze the ingredients of refining this potion, the means are not limited, you can observe the potion, taste the potion, the time is three hours, okay, now the game officially begins!"

Hearing Elder Hao's words, Ling Shuangzi's faces suddenly became very bad, and it was the biggest mistake for them to hand over the content of this competition to Elder Hao. However, there was no way if it wasn't handed over to Elder Hao, they had actually formulated the rules and content of the competition according to the items they were good at, but who thought that this competition would alarm those heavyweights in the inner gate, so they had to take the initiative to give up the right to formulate the rules and content of the competition, and leave it to Elder Hao. Well, now these competition items formulated by Elder Hao are not something they can complete at all, but they can't say anything, after all, the content of the competition between the other party and theirs is the same! This kind of competition project is indeed universal, and it can't be said that Elder Hao is biased, which is really embarrassing!

In this competition, the nine disciples did not say anything more humble, and directly all nine people participated, after all kinds of elixirs were refined into potions, they would hardly exude any breath of medicine, and the higher the grade of elixirs, the more so, just like the elixirs of more than six grades, even if it was the king of medicine, it was difficult to identify all the medicines, and it was very good to be able to judge one-third. Therefore, even if you can get some kind of precious potion, it is difficult to imitate it. Because of this, the recipes of those high-level potions become extremely precious, making the owner extremely secretive and rarely leaking out.

After Elder Hao announced that the competition had begun, the nine people couldn't wait to pick up the five bottles of potions that had been sent up on the high platform not long ago and checked them one by one, but they didn't get anything. In desperation, several people glanced at each other, turned their heads to look at Zichen and Lan Xi and Yun Xi and Chenxi opposite, wanting to see what they were doing.

Zi Chen and Lan Xi both knew all the ingredients by looking at the color of the potion and smelling the smell again, but if they wrote the ingredients of the potion in this way, it was inevitable that it would be a little too high-profile, after all, the others had not yet started writing. Thinking of this, both Zi Chen and Lan Xi directly chose to take the potion first, and after a while, they began to write down the ingredients of those potions.

Although Yun Xi and Chenxi had a lot more effort than Zi Chen and Lan Xi, after carefully checking those potions, they also knew the ingredients of the potions. However, thinking of what Zi Chen had told the two of them before, Yun Xi and Chen Xi finally chose to take the potion and waited for a while before starting to write.

The nine disciples saw the actions of Zi Chen and Lan Xi, as well as Yun Xi and Chen Xi, and suddenly realized their faces, and one by one they picked up the white jade bottle in front of them and directly took the medicine in the bottle, and in an instant, a loud swallowing sound came from the high platform. The moment the potion slid into their throats, several people got rid of their distracting thoughts, closed their eyes and concentrated, carefully savoring the medicinal power that had spread in their abdomen. For them, the only way to distinguish which drugs are contained in a drug is to determine the efficacy of the drug, so that it can be matched with the drug. Of course, this process is not so simple, and it is a great test for everyone's perception and mental power!

After a few moments, there was a terrible silence on the high platform, save for the occasional sound of pen rubbing against paper. The calm and solemn faces in the field made an invisible tension ripple between the heavens and the earth, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly became tense.

The surrounding group of disciples and elders who acted as spectators were all holding their breath, subconsciously suppressing their voices, for fear of disturbing the several alchemists who were meditating in the audience!

"Elder Mu, the 'Nine-Colored Elixir' you refined has never appeared before, and for these little guys, this level is not easy!" a young man sitting in the middle of the high platform smiled in a low voice to a young man beside him.

"It's just a little difficult, otherwise these little guys will succeed, and it won't be boring!" the young man who was asked glanced at the few people in the square who were struggling hard, and said with a smile.

A young man sitting beside the two of them heard the conversation between the two and said with emotion: "After the test of the 'Nine Colors Elixir', and the third level prepared by Elder Xue is waiting for them, I don't know if the two of them can survive the third level!"

......

When several inner door elders who acted as referees whispered over there, some people had already opened their eyes one after another, the best time to experience the effect of the medicine was the time after taking the medicine, and the duration also varied from person to person, the long one could reach four or five minutes, and if it was short, it was likely to be only tens of seconds, or even one or two seconds. Once this opportunity has passed, it will be difficult to gain something again.

One of the male disciples picked up a brush and wrote the name of a medicinal herb on the paper, and after a few seconds, he shook his head and painted the words into inky black, and after repeating this several times, the disciple directly picked up the paper and crumpled it aside, then relaid the paper and began to struggle again.

"Alas!" frowning and thinking for a while, the disciple re-wrote the name of a medicinal herb, and then blacked it out at a faster speed, repeating this several times again, he finally smiled bitterly and sighed, and gave up, this is already the fifth bottle of medicine, but ...... He did lose this game, and he couldn't taste what those potions were made of those herbs. Thinking of this, the disciple stood up helplessly and walked towards the bottom of the high platform.

As soon as someone took the lead, some people soon followed suit, and in less than half a cup of tea, seven more disciples left their seats and gave up the second level of the competition. At this time, only Ling Shuangzi and Du Qing, who had the most outstanding alchemy skills among them, were still there among the nine disciples.

At this time, Ling Shuangzi had also opened his eyes. Dai frowned slightly, holding the pen in her right hand and hanging in the air for a while, as if she suddenly thought of something, Ling Shuangzi's eyes lit up, and the tip of the pen dipped in ink fell on the paper, and with the rotation of her wrist, three words burst out. After outlining the last stroke, Ling Shuangzi breathed a sigh of relief, and out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Zi Chen who was not far away, although she could only distinguish one medicinal herb from each of the three potions, but this was enough, she didn't believe that girl could distinguish the medicinal herbs. This is not something that an alchemist of their level can do, she can distinguish those medicinal materials is also thanks to the fact that she comes from a family of medicinal materials, her family is famous for cultivating medicinal materials, so she is much more familiar with medicinal materials than others, but even so, she can only distinguish these three medicinal materials, she doesn't believe that girl can be better than her!

Three hours later, Elder Hao announced the end of the second game, and in this competition, none of the disciples submitted the papers in advance, and Zichen and Lan Xi, as well as Yun Xi and Chenxi, did not submit the papers in advance. Elder Hao announced that the game was over, and everyone put down the pens in their hands. Afterwards, Elder Hao personally stepped forward to take away the silk paper in front of several people, walked to the high platform and handed it over to the ten inner door elders who had been sitting there at the beginning of the competition. Those elders passed the silk paper in their hands, shaking their heads or nodding their heads from time to time, and the nine disciples who watched were very excited.
