The next day, the final round of the Shennong Ceremony began.
There were more people gathered in the square than yesterday. No one thought that Ning Yue would advance to the eighth round with first place in the seventh round.
Everyone pays less attention to Ning Yue's strength and pays little attention to his alchemy and medical skills. Now that he has entered the eighth round, how shocking it is!
The entire Shenmu Empire was extremely shocked.
Therefore, more people come here to watch the game.
Today's eighth round of competition is also extremely cruel. The top three will be determined from sixteen.
In today's competition, whoever is the first to find the case, refine the elixir, and solve the patient's symptoms will be the champion.
Ning Yue came to the competition site, causing countless people to cheer, and many female cultivators cheered for Ning Yue.
The remaining fifteen contestants looked at Ning Yue with alert eyes.
Before, Ning Yue was not the favorite to win the championship, and no one cared about it, but now, Ning Yue is the favorite to win the championship.
Among the crowd, Jiang Shenxu had the ugliest expression. He originally thought that Ning Yue was strong, but in the seventh round, Ning Yue shined.
The person presiding over the Shennong Ceremony today was Li Junhe. He was worried that Li Jihong would cause another accident, so he simply appeared in person.
After speaking to several examiners, he announced the start of the eighth round.
They brought out an old man with a face full of malignant sores, who was dying, and let the contestants watch, but they could only view it from a thousand steps away.
The contestants need to refine the corresponding elixir based on the old man's symptoms. Whoever is the fastest, the elixir refined is effective and of the best quality will be the final winner.
This is a test of the level of a doctor and an alchemist. When checking the patient's condition from a thousand steps away, it is impossible to check the patient's pulse or understand the patient's condition. Ordinary doctors and alchemists would probably be confused long ago.
However, those who can reach the top sixteen are basically eighth- and ninth-grade doctors and alchemists. They can observe "qi". By observing qi, they can see the patient's condition and what elixirs need to be refined.
Now, they look at the cases either through breath reading or through spiritual eyes.
But Ning Yue was only a sixth-grade alchemist, and he stood out among the other contestants.
Jiang Shenxu took a look and felt somewhat confident. He turned around, faced Ning Yue and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Ning, you are only a sixth-grade alchemist, but you can still watch Qi?"
The other contestants all looked at Ning Yue. Some were confident, but others were still hesitant.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Just refine your own elixir." Ning Yue said.
"Haha, I'm afraid you can't tell."
Jiang Shenxu laughed, then entered his room to refine the elixir.
The top of this room has no lid and is separated by a partition. Other contestants cannot see the situation inside the partition, but the audience in the square can clearly see the situation inside the partition through the sky mirror.
Other contestants also entered the partition one after another and began to refine the elixir.
However, Ning Yue was still watching and did not enter the partition.
"Didn't Ning Yue master the method of observing Qi?" someone said.
"It's not surprising. He is only a sixth-grade alchemist. The method of observing qi is not something that everyone can master. It requires at least an eighth-grade alchemist."
"That's a pity. Others have already started refining the elixir." Some people felt regretful.
"It's normal. He's just a sixth-grade alchemist. He's lucky enough to be able to break into the eighth round." Someone laughed.
In the square, many people were discussing this matter, some regretting it and others ridiculing it.
At this moment, a terrifying data stream flashed across Ning Yue's eyes, and the system was analyzing it, so Ning Yue felt that the old man's symptoms were not that simple.
After a long time, the fragrance of medicine was already emitting from someone's partition, but Ning Yue hadn't taken action yet.
Many people thought that Ning Yue gave up the competition, after all, someone was about to refine it into a pill.
Moreover, the competition also has a time limit and must be completed within an hour.
At this time, a clear reminder sounded in Ning Yue's mind.
Finally, the system finally completed the analysis, and Ning Yue was shocked by the final result.
"Could it be that all this is just a cover-up?"
Ning Yue was shocked, but he didn't have time to think too much, so he entered the partition and started refining the pill.
The elixir he refined was a very common elixir for the Fusion Realm, Daxie Pill.
This elixir has no detoxification effect. It is a laxative and is often used to feed spiritual beasts.
Some spiritual animals have indigestion and a lot of debris in their intestines and stomach, so they use this medicine.
The Great Relief Pill in the Fusion Realm is naturally a monster used in the Fusion Realm.
Most people don't know what kind of elixir Ning Yue refined, but there were many clever monks present. After they saw Ning Yue's preparation, they immediately knew what kind of elixir Ning Yue was going to refine now.
"Everyone else is refining the antidote pill, but Ning Yue is refining the catharsis pill?"
A doctor cannot understand, and people are dumbfounded.
"Did he make a mistake? This catharsis pill is for spiritual beasts to eat, and he still wants to eat it for others?"
Some alchemists said it was outrageous and unbelievable.
Time is running out.
Soon, some contestants refined the elixir.
This person is Master Xu Weishan, a ninth-grade alchemist. He was the first to refine it. He took out the elixir and stood on the stand, waiting for the result.
At this time, dark thunderclouds appeared on Jiang Shenxu's partition. The thunder was very loud and there were bursts of booming sounds.
Soon after, a green elixir took shape, exuding a strong fragrance.
Xu Weishan was suddenly startled, looked at Jiang Shenxu, and sighed: "It turned out to be a top-grade Tiger Bone Biying Pill. This pill is a pill for the Tribulation Realm, and it is also a top-grade pill. I am sure that I can refine this pill." It's not big, but he can actually refine it, he is truly a rare genius in the world!"
Others couldn't help but sigh, Jiang Shenxu really lived up to his reputation, and he was a peerless genius in alchemy.
One after another, many alchemists or doctors refined elixirs or ointments.
Compared with alchemists, doctors may have inferior alchemy skills, so they mostly prepare ointments, which only need to be effective.
Of course, elixirs can produce better medicinal effects, but alchemy is a technical job, and not every doctor has a very high level of alchemy.
This Shennong Ceremony is not an alchemy competition. If it were an alchemy competition, these three ninth-grade alchemists would have locked in the top three early, and the competition would have lost any suspense.
The Shennong Grand Ceremony competes on the level of medical treatment and alchemy skills. If ordinary doctors do not have a relatively high level of alchemy, it is impossible to reach the end.
At this time, only Master Shenhui and Ning Yue had not completed the refining.
This made Master Xuanfeng and others feel something was wrong, and said: "Master Shenhui, why haven't you refined the elixir after such a long time?"
Xu Weishan shook his head and said, "Is there something wrong with this case?"
