Chapter 351 Young Alchemist Contest

"The once-in-ten-year Young Alchemist Competition will be held next year." The alchemist announced an exciting news.

"I believe that the students from the Alchemist Association must know about this competition."

"The Youth Alchemist Competition is jointly organized by the Alchemist Association and our country, and it is also to cultivate a group of more outstanding alchemists."

"It will be held every 10 years, and this time the competition will begin."

"As long as you can get a good ranking in this alchemist competition, you will get generous rewards, not only those rewards issued by the organizer, but also our academy will also have points rewards."

"This is a very good opportunity for you."

"As long as you are under the age of 30, you will be eligible to participate after you have been certified by the Alchemist Association as an alchemist."

"Although many students are not yet pharmacists, I believe that by next year, more than half of you will be able to refine pills and become real pharmacists."

When the students in the audience knew about this competition, almost most of them were ready to move.

"I know that everyone must have an idea in their minds now, but the time for the competition is next year, when exactly, I will inform you when I get the results, but you can also start to prepare now, if you want If you want to participate in this competition, if you want to win the ranking in this competition, you'd better improve your medicine refining level as much as possible." The medicine refining teacher reminded.

"If you haven't even reached the realm of a human-level alchemist, then don't even try to get a ranking."

"It's not just you students who participated in the competition, there are also some alchemists from the society, and even some alchemists from various major forces."

"Your competitive pressure is very high."

"Of course I also hope that you can achieve good results in this competition, but compared to those graduated pharmacists, or even those who are close to 30 years old, your experience is still a bit poor."

By next year, none of the students present will be more than 25 years old.

Lu Yao is not even 20 years old now.

The subject of refining medicine is a test of experience, not only the experience of theoretical knowledge, but also the experience of practical operation. This requires a lot of time to learn, and it also requires a lot of practical operation.

Often those alchemists with relatively high levels are not too young.

Most of the people who can become human alchemists are over 40 years old.

To be able to become a human alchemist before the age of 30 is a true genius.

"The Youth Alchemist Contest." Lu Yao muttered to himself, "By next year, I should be able to become a human-level alchemist, and I can also compete for the ranking."

"This competition is definitely going to take part. After all, the alchemists who can participate in this young alchemist competition are also the best alchemists in the entire kingdom, and they are also the most talented alchemists. .”

Being able to compete with more outstanding pharmacists, being able to see more pharmacists' refining process, and also improving one's own level of refining medicine.

This is what Lu Yao is thinking now.

When the teacher announced the competition, Lu Yao's mind was full of the competition, and soon it was time for get out of class to end. They bid farewell to the teacher, left the classroom, and returned to their respective dormitories.

After staying in the dormitory for a while, I went to the library.

He began to look up some knowledge points about refining subjects in the library, and exchanged points for some basic knowledge books on more important refining subjects.

Another three days later, after Lu Yao consumed three strands of gray air, he also had a deeper understanding of the theoretical knowledge of the refining subject.

Then he signed up for the refining subject.

After passing the assessment of theoretical knowledge points, Lu Yao successfully got a high score and was allowed to take the subject of refining equipment.

The time of December has passed.

Time came to January.

It's been a month since school started.

At 1:3 on the morning of January 08, Lu Yao left his dormitory and went to the refining training ground.

Unlike other professional subjects, Kecheng of the refining subject is taught outdoors.

When he arrived at the training ground, Lu Yao could see that in the center of the training ground, one casting furnace after another had been inlaid, which was the equipment used for casting weapons.

Lu Yao also brought his own rune pen, which is required for casting weapons.

It was almost 9:00 in the morning when the equipment refining teacher came to the training ground.

Then he brought Lu Yao to the stage and asked Lu Yao to introduce himself.

Among the students present, half of them had already started to get in touch with the practical operation knowledge of refining equipment in the previous year.

Another half of the students have been studying for more than a month.

Lu Yao's progress was the slowest, after all he was the last one to come to their class.

After the introduction, the teacher arranged a seat for Lu Yao.

There is a stone table next to each casting furnace, and a casting hammer is placed on the stone table.

The quality of this hammer is gradeless and elementary, and it is provided to the students by the academy, and it is provided free of charge.

The academy also provided rune pens, but Lu Yao still planned to use his own rune pens.

The teacher first asked the other students to complete their tasks, and then came to Lu Yao.

"Student Lu Yao, your current progress is the slowest in our class, so you have to practice from the very beginning." The teacher said.

"Let me start to explain to you the steps in the actual operation process of our refining device."

"The very first step in the first place is calcination."

"It is to put the mineral material into the casting furnace for calcination and softening."

"Then the second step is beating to remove impurities."

"The third step is fusion."

"The fourth step is molding."

"The fifth step is the inscription of runes."

"The sixth and final step is the warming of the weapon."

The teacher spent about 15 minutes and began to explain these steps to him in detail.

Stepless weapons only need one material to cast, but there is no step of fusion, and the difficulty of casting is relatively minimal.

After the weapon is cast, you need to pick up the rune pen to engrave the rune on the weapon.

Of course, engraving runes is also the easiest.

It is precisely because engraving runes is the easiest, so even if ten runes are inscribed, the quality of the weapon obtained will not exceed the rankless primary.

If the understanding of runes is deep enough, the refiner can also engrave rune combinations or even rune arrays on weapons.

The effect of engraving the rune array is the best, but the difficulty of engraving the rune array is also the greatest.

Lu Yao is only at the stage of learning the combination of runes.

The more inscribed runes, rune combinations or rune arrays, and the higher the rank, the better the quality of the forged weapon.

Lu Yao has already learned some content from the book, but it is not as detailed as the teacher explained.

After the teacher finished explaining, Lu Yao would also ask some questions in his mind, and the teacher answered them patiently.

"Now you have to learn from the initial calcination stage." The teacher reminded.

"You need to study harder and study harder. I hope you can catch up with your classmates as soon as possible."

Now in the whole class, the students with the slowest progress have already started trying to inscribe runes.

And the students with the fastest progress can already successfully forge stepless primary weapons.

There are three such students.

"Understood, teacher, I will work hard!" Lu Yao said very firmly.

Then the teacher began to show him how to do the first step. He put the weapon into the casting furnace, and then proceeded to calcine and soften it.

He began to tell Lu Yao how to distinguish different minerals and how to distinguish the degree of calcination is enough.

Soon the time of one class passed.

The teacher also said the same thing, Lu Yao didn't have time to practice and try.

After class, he returned to his dormitory.

When he returned to the dormitory, he saw Du Tong's excited expression.

"Lu Yao, I have broken through the bottleneck period, and now I have entered the realm of senior trainee martial artist." Du Tong happily shared his joy.

"Congratulations. Now that you have broken through as a senior trainee martial artist, your strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. Keep working hard." Lu Yao encouraged.

He is also happy for his partner.

Now Lei Ming and Zhao Dieyi are about to complete the breakthrough of the bottleneck period.

Lu Yao took out the refining cauldron from the room, ready to start refining pills.

This time what he refined was still Chao Yi Wan.

He still has the last three herbs for refining Chao Yi Wan.

Lu Yao opened the medicine refining cauldron, and then put 5 different herbs into the medicine refining cauldron. After covering the medicine refining cauldron, he began to send the power of Qi and blood into the medicine refining cauldron.

The rune array on the body of the tripod was lit up, and the temperature inside the tripod was also higher.

Lu Yao's power of qi and blood is divided into five strands, and each strand of qi and blood controls a different kind of herb as a whole, and the temperature that each herb withstands is also different. The quantity is also different.

Lu Yao needs to ensure that the time for the successful extraction of the five herbs cannot be too far apart, which requires more precise mind control.

Fortunately, Lu Yao tried this step every day. This step has become his own muscle. The memory is very smooth, and he completed it.

Only 21 minutes and 31 seconds passed, and a strong medicinal fragrance spread from the medicine refining cauldron.

It means that this time the pill refining has been successful.

After the temperature inside the alchemy cauldron cooled down, the router opened the alchemy cauldron.

There are two black pills in the refining cauldron, and the other six pills are all brown-black, which means that this time the pill refining has produced two high-level super-memory pills.

The other six are all intermediate super memory pills.

Then he finished refining the pills twice more, and all the herbs had been consumed.

It was past eleven o'clock, and Lu Yao did not go to the alchemy classroom for class.

Now he has almost learned the practical knowledge in the refining class, and the rest is continuous practice.

Even in the dormitory, it will not affect his practice.

After finishing the refining of the pills, Lu Yao began to practice the water source combat skills.

He is still trying to hit the eighth move of the water source combat skill.

There are the last two moves left, and these are the two most difficult moves to learn, and they are also the two most powerful moves.

After practicing until 12:00 noon, Lu Yao stopped practicing water source combat skills, and then he and a few partners left the dormitory and started to go to the cafeteria of the college to have lunch.

After resting for a while at noon, he practiced basic combat skills for a while, then he bid farewell to a few friends and left the dormitory to go to the rune classroom.

Before the rune teacher came to the classroom, he very consciously started to inscribe the rune combination.

It took only 15 minutes and 11 seconds for Lu Yao to successfully engrave a combination of runes.

By the end of the course, he had successfully identified 4 rune combinations.

Then he bid farewell to the teacher and returned to his dormitory.

"Everyone, come with me now, I'm going to buy some herbs." Lu Yao said to his partners.

"By the way, accompany me to the Alchemist Guild to register. I am going to be certified as a non-ranked senior alchemist."

Naturally, everyone didn't have any opinions. They stopped training, and then left the dormitory and the academy together.

They first came to the alchemist guild and walked into the hall.

Lu Yao came to the front desk, and he took out the alchemist nameplate on his body.

"Hello, I want to get the advanced certification of alchemist." Lu Yao said politely to the staff.

Then he told the staff about his personal information.

"Wait a minute!" said the staff member.

After inquiring about Lu Yao's information, the staff took out a form from under the table and asked Lu Yao to fill in the personal information.

After Lu Yao finished filling it out, the staff left the counter with the form and started heading to the second floor of the guild.

"I've already asked you to confirm the time. After 2:00 pm tomorrow, you can come for the certification of the stepless advanced alchemist." The staff member said.

"At that time, please prepare your own medicinal materials."

"I'm sorry to trouble you!" Lu Yao thanked.

Remembering that they left the Alchemist Guild and started to go to the pharmacy.

Before entering the pharmacy, the boss had already seen them. The boss still knew Lu Yao. After all, Lu Yao bought quite a lot of medicinal materials every time, so he greeted them immediately.

"Guest, what kind of medicinal materials do you need to buy this time, and the approximate quantity?" The boss asked enthusiastically.

Lu Yao took out a list from his pocket, which recorded the types and quantities of medicinal materials he wanted to buy this time.

This time, Lu Yao wanted to buy more medicinal materials.

He is going to try to refine some new prescriptions.

During the holiday, Lu Yao had already exchanged three new prescriptions from their Ghost Slayer team stronghold.

The medicinal herbs that Lu Yao bought now are the medicinal materials needed in these prescription records.

Among the three different prescriptions, each prescription recorded a method of refining the pills.

Lu Yao bought 300 copies of medicinal herbs, and it happened that each prescription was prepared to be refined 100 times.

About 20 minutes later, the owner of the pharmacy prepared all the herbs that Lu Yao wanted to buy.

After Lu Yao paid the money, he took the herbs and left.

Then they had dinner at a restaurant on the side of the road, and then went back to the dormitory together.

Lu Yao took out the refining cauldron from the room, and he was ready to refine a new prescription.

Among the three prescriptions, the one with the least difficulty in refining is a pill called Zhixue Pill, which is a kind of pill with a record of medium stepless prescriptions.

Lu Yao is going to be the first to refine this pill.

He opened the medicine refining cauldron, put 5 different kinds of herbs into the medicine refining cauldron of the stove, and after covering the medicine refining cauldron, he began to send the power of Qi and blood into the medicine refining cauldron.

Now it is time to refine new pills, so Lu Yao has become more careful.

Although the refining difficulty of this kind of pill is much less than that of Chaoyi pill, it is the first refining after all, and it took Lu Yao 41 minutes to complete the refining of the pill.

After Wen Wen cooled down, Lu Yao opened the alchemy cauldron.

There are 4 brown-black pills in the tripod, one of which is a primary hemostatic pill, and three are intermediate hemostatic pills.

"Although it's a new medicine, I succeeded in refining it the first time I tried it, which shows that my level of refining medicine has indeed improved a lot." Lu Yao thought with satisfaction.

Just as he was about to start the second pill refining, the power of qi and blood became more active.

He knew that he was about to break through the bottleneck period.

About 4 minutes later, the power of Qi and blood that had stopped growing increased again.

"I broke through, my energy and blood power finally broke through 80." Lu Yao thought joyfully in his heart.

He felt that his physical fitness had improved significantly.

Body control has also become a little stronger.

He immediately started refining the second hemostatic pill.

The speed of refining the hemostatic pill for the second time was much faster, and it only took 29 minutes and 11 seconds for Lu Yao to complete the second pill refining.

After opening the alchemy cauldron, there were 7 brown-black pills in the cauldron, all of which had reached the quality of intermediate pills.

Lu Yao didn't stop, and immediately started refining the pills for the third and fourth times.

It wasn't until 9:30 in the evening that Lu Yao stopped making pills.

At this time, he was able to complete the refining of the hemostatic pill in 25 minutes and 13 seconds.

Among the hemostatic pills refined, 4 reached the intermediate quality and 4 reached the high quality.

"Just finished the new prescription, and we can make high-quality pills." Lu Yao was very satisfied.

It was getting late, and several partners also bid farewell to Lu Yao one after another, and left his dormitory. Lu Yao also went to bed after washing up.
