Dominating Evolution of the Cosmos

The master pharmacists praised Douglas, while others marveled at his performance.

There were no side effects from his serum, and its effect was excellent. In fact, it was excellent in all aspects.

"Master pharmacists, please grade it," Christina reminded them.

"Mr. Douglas' Thousand Crane Serum is excellent in all aspects, but it does lack a very prominent advantage. So, I will give him 7.1 points," President Sidney said.

"As excellence in all aspects is very rare, I will give him 7.8 points," Master Francus said.

The other master pharmacists looked at Master Francus, who was the chief pharmacist of the Clark Pharmaceutical Group. They all knew that he would naturally give Douglas a higher score.

"Although other effects have been added, there is still much room for improvement in terms of this Original Force Restoration Serum, so I must only give him 6.5 points," Master Gino said.

Master Francus looked at Master Gino with a trace of anger and said, "A score of 6.5 points is too low, as it should in no way be given less than 7 points."

"Personally, I think it's only deserving of a score of 6.5 points. Are you questioning my judgment?" Master Gino asked, clearly offended.

Master Francus was angry, but helpless to do anything about it. After all, Gino was the judge, and he could give any scores that he wanted to.

Everyone else was pretending to be polite and understanding, but were really feeling jealous and competitive in their hearts. After all, either Philip or Douglas was most likely going to win first place.

As Master Francus represented the interests of the Clark Pharmaceutical Group and Master Gino represented the interests of the Whitby Pharmaceutical Group, they naturally did not want each other's representative to win first place.

This explained the reason why Master Gino had given Douglas such a low score. Following that, the other master pharmacist judges gave their scores...

"No. 72, Douglas Collic, scored 7 points," Christina announced.

This result made both Douglas and Master Francus look upset, as Master Gino's score of 6.5 points had clearly pulled down the average of Douglas' scores. But, at least it was still the highest score so far.

"No. 73, Philip Whit," Christina called out.

At last, it was Philip's turn. At that moment, everyone could not help but wonder whether Philip would perform better than Douglas had.

"Master pharmacists, this is my Triple Red Sun Serum!" Philip smiled confidently as he introduced his serum. "It can recover 10% of its efficacy in an instant and 90% in three minutes."

Upon hearing Philip's introduction, more than a dozen master pharmacists frowned.

At the same time, Douglas could not help but laugh. "Philip, you are actually competing with this kind of serum?"

Everyone else was confused by this as well. This was because Philip's serum was too common, even though it was still better than most of his competitors.

However, there was a huge gap between everyone's low expectations and what he had actually just presented. At the same time, it definitely did not seem to fit the criteria of what a D-grade pharmacist would normally present.

Philip's serum was clearly inferior to Douglas' Original Force Restoration Serum! This was totally unexpected!

"This... It's too common," Master Keno said.

"Yes, the Triple Red Sun Serum is a little common, but it has one of the most amazing features!" Philip had a confident smile on his face.

Everyone leaned forward at that moment, as they were all interested to hear more.

"What are the surprising features?" President Sami asked.

"It can be taken three times a day, or even continuously, with the same effect each time. However, if you take three bottles at a time, you can't overlap the effect. Moreover, it has no side effects, so it can still be taken three times the next day!" Philip explained.

Hearing this, the master pharmacists were surprised. Others were downright shocked! Even Steve was surprised by such amazing effects.

Three times a day! Are you kidding? The Original Force Restoration Serum should only be taken once a day. Can one really take your Triple Red Sun Serum three times?

The master pharmacists could not help but wonder if this could really be true. After all, taking the same type of serum would usually produce resistance. Then, during the time when the resistance had not yet been eliminated, taking the same type of serum would either be ineffective or the effect would be greatly weakened.

So, if this serum could be taken three times a day, although the recovery effect was ordinary, in a war of attrition, it could possibly play a huge role! This would especially be true in the battlefield, as it would not be surprising for a soldier to take up to three bottles a day in order to improve his combat power!

"If you have doubts, we can verify my claims on the spot," Philip said.

A staff member came forward and performed the test. Sure enough, after drinking three bottles in a row, each bottle had the same effect.

After seeing it verified before their very eyes, everyone was shocked. The significance of this breakthrough was truly extraordinary!

"Yes! It's really an excellent feature," President Sidney laughed.

That was the highest praise he had given in this competition so far! The other pharmacists nodded in agreement with President Sidney's commentary.

"I think everyone agrees on my serum's excellence then," Philip said.

Douglas was suddenly sullen and felt uneasy. After all, Philip's serum was so amazing, he just might win first place.

"Wait!" Just then, Steve spoke up.

While Douglas' eyes held a glimmer of joy, others were simply curious as to what Steve would possibly have to say. After all, the reason why Oscar's scores had dropped before was because Steve had pointed out some problems. So, everyone had to wonder...

Now that Douglas was expected to win first place, would Steve be able to find any problems with his serum too?

"Mr. Steve, do you have an opinion that you'd like to share?" President Sidney laughed.

"Steve, don't make trouble!" Philip said angrily. "My serum has been tested many times, and everyone can clearly see that there is no problem with it! If you deliberately try to find some fault in it, don't blame me for not being polite to you!"

Philip was a little upset, as he did not want to end up like Oscar!

"Mr. Philip, I don't mean to interfere, but I have a question. How did you manage to take three bottles a day?" Steve asked with a laugh.

"This is a trade secret, so I must simply say, 'No comment,'" Philip said coldly.

"I know... You must have used an E-grade ingredient, like the Purple Sunflower?" Steve guessed calmly.

Philip looked at Steve in shock.

The Purple Sunflower?

President Sidney and the others all looked puzzled.

"What does this have to do with the Purple Sunflower?" President Sami asked.

"The Purple Sunflower has the ability to produce clones. Each cloned flower has the same effect as the main body, but the cloned parts and the main body are one. In fact, Mr. Philip's Original Force Restoration Serum can be classified as three bottles in one. Therefore, three bottles can be used as a single bottle, but each bottle of serum is actually a different individual serum, which means that no resistance is left," Steve explained.

After hearing his explanation, more than a dozen master pharmacists had a sudden collective realization. With their many years of experience, they quickly understood what Steve had just pointed out. In fact, they would have soon discovered this for themselves after they returned from the competition and studied Philip's serum further.

"Three bottles in one! So... That is why it can be taken together!" President Sidney suddenly realized.

"This kind of serum, though the effects look ordinary and it appears to be easy to refine, it is actually quite difficult to refine, which makes it close to an E-grade serum. Even an E-grade pharmacist might have a low success rate in refining it, too," Steve said.
