The players are almost ready, and the referee has an hourglass in his hand.
"This hourglass is 30 minutes. After the hourglass ends, everyone needs to stop, and violators will be disqualified..."
"I declare the game officially begins!"
With a swish sound, the referee opened the cloth in the middle of the table.
20 trays of medicinal materials instantly appeared on the table.
Everyone brushed their pens and started writing.
The first step is to identify the medicinal materials.
Most people's memory is not that good, so they will first write down the identified medicinal materials on paper.
This makes it easier to write prescriptions.
Only three people remained unmoved.
They are Chu Qian, Bai Ye, and Miao Jiang girl.
Bai Ye seemed confident and just scanned the medicinal materials on the table.
The pen in his hand was swung very quickly.
Soon a prescription was written out.
Much faster than other players.
After a while, the Miao girl also moved.
As I wrote, I was still chanting silently.
The speed is also extremely fast.
I quickly wrote one.
Others' movements seemed much more chaotic, and some even couldn't even identify the medicinal materials.
You need to look up at the medicinal materials on the table and start writing with your head down.
Even so, the movements in their hands did not stop at all.
After all, it has reached this time, and the veil has to be finished.
It doesn't matter if the writing is wrong, it will be regarded as a scrap at most.
But what if you write it correctly?
That's an extra point.
The confrontation on the field was intense.
The audience was also heightened by this atmosphere.
"I feel like they are so powerful. I can only identify less than 10 medicinal materials..."
"That's good enough. I can only identify less than 5 of them!"
"That's right, I didn't have any preparation time to recognize it so quickly!"
"I'm definitely looking at Bai Ye and the Miao girl who won the qualification for the competition this time, and the top student from Qingbei University seems to be pretty good too..."
"Yes, his movements are not slower than these two. Maybe he can surpass the Miao girl!"
"Hey, why is there someone there who hasn't moved yet!"
"..."
Everyone soon noticed that one person never started writing.
This person is none other than Chu Qian.
Not only did Chu Qian not write,
He still closed his eyes and straightened his body.
Everyone looked at her in surprise.
"What is this Chu Qian doing? Didn't she give up..."
A group of girls in the back row quickly started shouting. They had long held a grudge against Chu Qian, and now they finally found a chance.
"I don't know. This Chu Qian was originally a transfer student and came through the back door. She probably cheated in the first round..."
"Isn't it possible? Wasn't she brought in by Mr. Zhong? I heard that she is quite strong..."
"Please keep your voice down. No matter how powerful Mr. Zhong is, he is still a human being. The one who cannot be protected is his illegitimate daughter or you know..."
"Zun Du and Fake Du, are you so exaggerated?"
"Is that an exaggeration? You see, she has already finished two or three pieces of writing, and now she can't even move her pen. Doesn't that mean anything?"
"Yes, it only means that he knows nothing about medicinal materials. I don't know how she is qualified to participate..."
"..."
The heated discussion in the audience quickly attracted the attention of the referees.
The other judges looked at Mr. Zhong and said nothing.
Mr. Zhong still looked confident, and his teachers didn't care. It didn't matter if they, an outsider, gossiped.
If Mr. Zhong's fiery temper is ignited again, he might actually come over and beat them.
So they don't dare to add fuel to the fire.
But there was no surprise in her heart that Chu Qian was sentenced to death.
He couldn't even pass the selection test for qualifications. The identification of medicinal materials is so low. It would be a joke if he participated in a formal exchange meeting.
For a clown to participate in an exchange meeting of that level, no matter how tough his connections are, he will not be tolerated.
The reason why Mr. Zhong didn't feel anything strange was because he had confidence in Chu Qian.
It's hard to say about other aspects, but his ability in medicine prescription is probably much better than his.
This was what initially attracted him to Yunzhou to look for her.
Mr. Zhong looked at Chu Qian attentively. Although he didn't know what Chu Qian was going to do now, he still had confidence in Chu Qian.
Chu Qian always kept her eyes closed.
But her mind was racing.
Those who are careful can see that the tip of her nose is twitching.
That's right, Chu Qian did not rely on sight, but used smell to identify medicinal materials.
The so-called prescription is actually the harmonious resonance reaction produced by the complementary Qi and energy of medicinal materials.
This is its fundamental.
For example, when we cook, we use two ordinary ingredients.
Pork and chili.
But it can combine many different cuisines.
Stir-fried pork with chili pepper, stuffed meat with green pepper, stir-fried pork with farm style, twice-cooked pork, boiled pork slices...
Two simple ingredients, when put together, can sublimate and produce a chemical reaction.
Just like traditional Chinese medicine, two medicinal materials may have completely different effects.
But put them together, and they create a Big Bang-like sublimation effect.
Low-level chefs are limited to recipes and ingredients.
By adjusting the auxiliary ingredients and condiments, as well as the method of processing the ingredients, you can make different dishes.
Even with the same ingredients, every chef has a very different taste.
The real masters are not limited to ingredients and accessories. They fundamentally understand the reactions behind these combinations.
Just through cooking methods, you can make various delicacies.
Memorizing the essentials by rote is just a bad idea.
The key strategy is to be flexible and integrate all the prescriptions.
The best strategy is based on the properties of the medicinal materials and the scent they contain.
What Chu Qian is doing now is to combine several harmonious breaths together.
Arrange and combine to form a prescription.
Then use the knowledge of the brain to match and understand its function and usage.
"Snowdrops, saffron, cordyceps, coptis, woody gall, Glauber's salt..."
Each medicinal material turned into an entity and circulated in her mind.
10 minutes have passed.
Everyone else wrote about seven or eight pieces.
Miao girl and Bai Ye even wrote a thick stack.
It's estimated to be more than 10.
But at this time, most people have slowed down because the knowledge in their minds is limited.
After writing those things that are certain, the rest are uncertain and require deliberation and careful thinking.
Bai Ye and the Miao Jiang girl's speed never slowed down.
The pens in their hands are still writing non-stop.
Seeing the progress of this game, most people have an idea.
As expected, the first echelon was still the same two people.
The second echelon is composed of top students from prestigious schools, and three of them are pretty good, closely chasing the two in the first echelon.
Two men and one woman are from Union College and Qingbei University respectively.
