Revitalizing the Mountain Gate Chapter 29 Five-Grade Assessment
All the monks who participated in the assessment held their breath and devoted themselves to answering the questions. At the same time, a string of numbers began to appear behind the names on the jade screen, and the order of the names changed.
The monks who watched the ceremony let out exclamations from time to time, and it was Gong Zhen who was in the first place on the jade screen and always in the lead, followed by Na Lu Huang, no wonder the two sneered at each other when they met, looking at the situation, it was not once or twice that they occupied the first and second positions on the ranking list for a long time like this in the annual Danshi assessment.
Mao Chan, who was stuck in the last level of the previous Fourth Rank Dan Master assessment, was sitting in the viewing hall and staring at Wan Hui in the arena at the moment, her eyes were firm, she didn't know what she was thinking, and there were several young men around her who cast curious glances at her from time to time.
After a while, the monks suddenly let out an exclamation, and pointed upward, Zhou Xiang looked fixedly, but saw that the top two Gong Zhen and Lu Huang's scores gradually slowed down, and Shen Wanqing and Shen Zhuoqun, who were originally behind, had already caught up, and gradually Shen Wanqing surpassed Lu Huang, and finally crossed Gong Zhen and occupied the first position, while Shen Zhuoqun slowly came to the second, and as time went by, the two pulled Gong Zhen, Lu Huang and others farther and farther away.
"Haha, every year, I watch Gong Zhen and Lu Huang perform with a group of Dan masters, it's extremely boring, and this year someone finally threw them away, it seems that the gap is quite big!" Tao Shi stroked his beard and said with satisfaction.
At this moment, the jade screen flashed brightly, and after a few breaths, it flashed again. The names of Shen Wanqing and Shen Zhuoqun turned golden one after another.
"Yes, yes, the first and second have reached the standard of mastery of the pharmacopoeia of the Wupindan. Tao Shi said with a smile, as if he was explaining to Zhou Xiang, who was not far away.
After the tea, the jade screen began to flicker again, and it was flashing non-stop, Gong Zhen, Lu Huang and others also reached the cognitive standard of the Wupin Danshi for the pharmacopoeia, and some of the monks in the audience began to cheer.
After the stipulated time was over, the jade case in front of all the monks in the examination hall dimmed, and the light turned yellow again. The Dan masters, along with the monks in the auditorium, all looked up at the results of the pharmacopoeia.
"All passed!" Zhou Xiang was a little surprised, it seemed that the first level of the Fifth Rank Dan Master was not as difficult as he imagined.
"As a monk, the alchemist has a very strong ability to never forget. Although the pharmacopoeia is broad and profound, and there are even many medicinal herbs that are in a state of insolence or even extinction in reality, these monks have been assessed for so many years and have long been familiar with the pharmacopoeia, so there is no problem in passing the first one. Tao Shi explained directly to Zhou Xiang this time.
Seeing that they had passed the first game, the Dan masters in the assessment hall also breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to notice the rankings.
"Huh!?"
Most of the people let out a strange sound: "It's actually Shen Wanqing and Shen Zhuoqun who are ranked first and second respectively! Why aren't Gong Zhen and Lu Huang?"
Look at the results again: "Wow!
The Dan Masters began to look for Shen Wanqing and Shen Zhuoqun in the hall, after all, when the Four Rank Dan Masters were assessed, only the ancestors and grandchildren had passed with honors, so everyone basically knew them.
Gong Zhen also saw the display, this time he actually ranked third, not only did he not dislike it, but he was extremely excited, after all, the first two were discovered by himself. However, Lu Huang's face became very ugly, but after seeing that Wan Hui's ranking was fifth, his face eased a little.
Shen Zhuoqun and Shen Wanqing were calm and unwavering, but after that Wanhui saw that he was the fifth, his face turned red, and his arrogant head showed a look of dissatisfaction.
After a quarter of an hour's rest, the Danjing assessment officially began. This time, in addition to the inspection of the Dan Fang, the identification and assessment of the Dan Yao was also added, including the determination of the quality and function of the Dan Yao through the description and the retelling of the Dan Fang, and finally the identification of the actual Dan Yao.
The Dan masters are familiar with these processes, but after the end of this round of assessment, more than two-thirds of the monks still failed to pass. Among the remaining Dan masters, Shen Wanqing, Shen Zhuoqun, Gong Zhen, Lu Huang and Wan Hui still occupy the top five, but there is a female Dan master named Tao Li who actually came from behind and is set in the sixth position, and the gap with Wan Hui is already very small.
"If the old man didn't guess wrong, Tao Li is Brother Tao, your well-behaved little granddaughter, right?"
Kong Sen smiled after seeing Tao Li's name: "I didn't pay attention at first, I still wondered why your Xiaoli didn't come to the competition?
"Hehe, this girl is afraid that others will say that she has touched the light of the old man, so she has to participate in the assessment with her own strength. Tao Shi shook his head and smiled bitterly, but there was a proud expression on his face.
"At a young age, but not arrogant or impatient, he can master the pharmacopoeia and the Danjing to this extent, which is really not inferior to you, Brother Tao! There are successors to the old Tao family, and there are successors!" Kong Sen was amazed.
"Haha, I have a few more talents in the Xuan Sect, the old man is pleased!" Guan Shan, who had not spoken for a long time, said with a smile.
So far, the top three and sixth places in the assessment of the Five Rank Dan Masters are all from the Tongxuan Sect, how can they not be happy, but the faces of the Li Dao Sect and the rest of the Yuan Ying are a little ugly.
After resting again, the process of refining the pill was about to begin, and the monks who failed the Danjing assessment all swallowed the pill one after another, seizing the time to replenish their energy and divine sense, and trying to refine one more pill to achieve a turnaround.
The medicinal materials needed for this assessment were quickly distributed, and one by one the prohibitions then isolated the cultivators, and the fire crystals were also distributed to each Dan Master.
One by one, the Dan furnaces were taken out by everyone, and everyone began to arrange fire crystals and spirit stones according to their own habits and formations, and the medicinal herbs were also placed in their own convenient places.
With the order of the invigilator, the name of the pill to be refined and the pill prescription were displayed on the jade case in front of all the Dan masters, and everyone began to get busy, and the entire assessment hall immediately turned red. The energy of the spar was constantly activated, and the flames were changing more or less under the control of the spiritual power of the cultivators. The excess heat in the hall is absorbed by the special formation in time and will not affect the ambient temperature. Everyone kept their hands on it, and when the fire arrived, the herbs were thrown into the furnace and began to be refined.
Looking at it closely, the refining methods of many Dan masters are similar.
Zhou Xiang didn't have much to do with the pill technique, but when he saw that Shen Wanqing and Shen Zhuoqun were acting methodically and calmly when refining the pill, especially when Shen Wanqing was still a little relaxed on his face, he knew that there was no problem, so he put his mind at ease. On the contrary, Kong Sen and Tao Shi on the side kept evaluating the techniques of each Dan master.
Time passed quickly, and it was Shen Wanqing who first completed the refining of the first elixir, and immediately began to prepare for the next elixir, followed by Shen Zhuoqun, then Gong Zhen and Lu Huang, and the fifth place this time was actually Tao Li, who came from behind and compared that Wanhui.
With the passage of time, the later it gets, the higher the requirements for the cultivation and spiritual power of the Danshi, despite the support of the elixir and the spirit stone, there are still many monks who can't refine the law, and the spiritual power and spirit they consume are too large, and they can't be replenished in time or the replenishment speed can't match the consumption speed, and there are many people who finally refine the elixir.
Zhou Xiang counted that the number of people who could refine the first pill only accounted for about half of all the pill masters, the second pill was even less successful, and only the top eight Dan masters insisted on refining to the third one.
Shen Wanqing was the first to complete the refining of all the pills, and she was able to easily refine the seven-grade pills, and her consumption this time was really not large. However, seeing that the assessment was not over, Shen Wanqing simply meditated and recovered, after all, she would continue to participate in the assessment of the Sixth Rank Dan Master later.
Shen Zhuoqun has been practicing the Danshu hard recently, and he has his granddaughter by his side to continue to guide, although it took a lot of spiritual power and divine sense to assess the four-rank Dan Master before, but after taking the pill specially refined by Shen Wanqing, he finally persevered, completed all the assessments, and followed Shen Wanqing with the second place.
Gong Zhen and Lu Huang have occupied the first and second positions in the pharmacopoeia and Danjing assessments for many years, but in the end, they are always stuck in the final alchemy. In the first assessment this year, seeing that the ancestors and grandchildren of the Shen family were far behind, the two felt the strong pressure, and finally broke through the bottleneck and completed the refining of all the pills.
Near the end of the assessment, Tao Li and Wan Hui also completed the last hurdle.
The next step is to evaluate the alchemy pills, if you have completed the refining of the pills, but you have not reached the fifth grade, you will not be able to pass. And if there is no problem with the level of the pill, and the refining of the four pills is completed, even if the second game or the first game is not passed, it can be regarded as reaching the standard of the five-grade pill master.
Naturally, the sixth-rank pills that could be identified were mainly the sixth-rank pills, and two monks wearing sixth-rank pill robes appeared in the assessment hall, and they evaluated the refined pills in turn.
