"Cough, cough cough——"
Elder Yi Liang's hoarse cough suppressed the voices of the entire audience.
In the soul force field to the north, the noise disappeared, and then in the quiet scene, a figure wearing an alchemist's robe suddenly flashed onto the stage from below.
Standing next to Elder Yi Liang, motionless, the furnace cauldron with four snow-white lines is none other than the leader of the Medicine Gang, Mo Xiu.
As soon as the fourth-level alchemist Mo Xiu appeared, bursts of cheers erupted in the audience.
"Okay, okay, okay--"
Moxiu's reputation in the inner court does have a lot of prestige.
Not long after Mo Xiu took the stage, a passage suddenly opened in the crowd. A young man in black with a smile on his face led the students and slowly walked to the edge of the stage amidst the strange looks around him.
He walked onto the soul force field alone and bowed to the crowd of students. His attitude was calm and indifferent. Some of the students, teachers, and elders who were watching in secret secretly praised him.
Off the field, countless eyes were watching the two figures on the stage, each of them majestic and tall, reflecting their different temperaments. For a moment, the beautiful eyes of the female students in the soul force field shone slightly.
Standing between the two students Ye Duoduo and Mo Xiu, Elder Yi Liang was wearing a plain robe, his hair was graying, but his expression was as tough as the two young students.
Although Yi Liang was wearing wrinkles, his face had a particularly sharp smile in today's lively atmosphere, with a hint of sharpness.
Elder Yi Liang concurrently serves as the elder of the Zhengge in the inner courtyard, and also has the right to manage medicinal materials and prescriptions. He is a well-known and selfless deacon elder.
"cough--"
Elder Yi Liang coughed again, and his powerful and rich soul energy released a strong voice, suppressing the voices in the audience. Looking around the audience, he slowly took out a yellowish ancient prescription from his pocket and said a faint word.
"I have always been very interested in refining elixirs. Because alchemists have very strict conditions for refining elixirs, so I can only give up temporarily."
"Today, I am very happy to be able to come to the inner court for the hard-fought alchemy competition and to administer justice. However, fellow students, you know my usual deacon habits, and you must bear in mind a fair scale."
"good--"
When all the students heard Elder Yi Liang's words, bursts of cheers suddenly erupted under the soul force field.
The reputation of justice possessed by the entire inner court is well known.
"Today's alchemy competition, I will personally select the recipe for the elixir. So far, Ye Duoduo and Mo Xiu don't know what elixir they need to refine?"
The cheers from the audience brought a smile to Elder Yi Liang's face.
Elder Yi Liang's palm gently patted the prescription, and with the attention of all the students, he introduced it to two students, Ye Duoduo and Mo Xiu.
"Before refining the elixir, let me explain in advance that refining the elixir is a bit difficult. I wonder if you two dare to accept it?"
Ye Duoduo and Mo Xiu were stunned for a moment and looked at each other.
Mo Xiu was the first to hold his fists in salute and smiled.
"Hehehehe——"
"No matter what prescription the elder chooses? Mo Xiu will do his best to refine the elixir."
Mo Xiu was originally very confident. He was a fourth-level alchemist. Occasionally he could reach the peak level and could refine five-level elixirs.
Of course, the success rate of refining level five elixirs will be a bit low.
If this volume of prescriptions contains five levels of elixirs, it would naturally be the most difficult one. However, Mo Xiu was equally confident that he would be better than Ye Duoduo.
Ye Duoduo smiled slightly and nodded without any reaction.
"good--"
"Since the two students are full of confidence. As the deacon elder who manages the prescription in the inner courtyard, I have the right to take out the prescription."
"To express my gratitude to the two students for demonstrating the highest level of alchemy technology, I would like to give you the prescription as a gift."
Elder Yi Liang held his beard, smiled, and raised the prescription towards the two of them.
"Who among you will see it first?"
"Let Senior Mo Xiu take priority!"
Ye Duoduo smiled softly.
"In that case, Junior Ye Duoduo, Mo Xiu has taken the lead!"
Mo Xiu clasped his fists in salute, smiled lightly, and did not refuse.
He took the prescription from Elder Yi Liang, slowly opened it, closed his eyes, activated his mental induction, invaded the medicine language, and extracted the complicated contents of the prescription, still fresh in his memory.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, as the contents of the prescription came into his mind, the smile on Mo Xiu's face slowly faded, and finally, there was almost something ugly about it.
Under the soul force field, for a while, bursts of whispers could be heard. There were eyes full of doubts, speculating about what was going to happen.
"There seems to be something wrong?"
Fengjia frowned and made it clear to Ye Xianxian and other students beside her.
"Don't panic. Take a look first and then talk."
An uneasy feeling flashed through Ye Xianxian's heart. However, she still maintained a calm attitude.
On the soul power field, Ye Duoduo's brows slowly wrinkled because of Mo Xiu's expression. Judging from the situation, it seems that there is some problem with the prescription, or is it very difficult to refine the elixir according to the prescription?
Hard to guess.
Could it be that, as Elder Yi Liang said, it is very difficult to refine the elixir in this volume of medicine.
Mo Xiu was still a fourth-level alchemist, and his face became so ugly.
Under the confused gazes of countless students, teachers, and elders in the soul force field, Mo Xiu quit his mental induction for a while, handed the prescription to Elder Yi Liang, and pretended to smile.
"Elder Yi has chosen the prescription and it is very difficult to refine the elixir. However, Mo Xiu will try his best."
"Hey, let's see, young people! You must challenge some limits!"
Elder Yi Liang smiled with a hint of cunning, held the prescription, and handed it to Ye Duoduo.
Ye Duoduo took the prescription without hesitation, unfolded it, and activated his mental induction.
Mo Xiu watched Ye Duoduo activate his mental induction, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.
"snort--"
"This prescription makes even a fourth-level alchemist like me feel helpless. What's more, can you, a kid like you, refine the elixir?"
Mo Xiu had a gloating expression on his face, expecting Ye Duoduo to look ugly. However, soon, the embarrassment did not appear on Ye Duoduo's face, only an expression of solemnity and surprise appeared.
"oh--"
"This boy, the city is quite deep, and he is so deeply hidden in such a difficult-to-refine elixir recipe."
"However, your hypocritical actions will naturally show their flaws when it comes to refining the elixir."
Ye Duoduo's calmness made Mo Xiu frown. However, the sneer and sarcasm still existed in his heart.
"It seems that the elixir to be refined for the prescription is not difficult at all!"
Ye Xianxian was relieved in the audience, looking at the solemnity on Ye Duoduo's face.
The three students Feng Jia, Yuan Yin and Xiu Yan waved their hands. The refining of the elixir has not come to the end, now, what can they say? There is only intention but no power.
Ye Duoduo withdrew his mental telepathy from the prescription, rubbed his head that was swollen with such a huge amount of information, and returned the prescription to Elder Yi Liang with a chuckle.
"Hehehehe——"
"Elder Yi, this prescription really stumps us. A fifth-level alchemist may not be able to refine five-level elixirs."
"Level 5 elixir."
Many people were surprised when they heard the level of the elixir spoken by Ye Duoduo.
"Wow——"
Everyone knows that Mo Xiu's face turned ugly at that time.
