Chapter 107 Three-Star Alchemist Assessment
"Have you heard about it?"
"What?"
"Recently, a fierce man who is crazy about completing tasks has come to the Alchemy Guild. He has to complete 100 two-star tasks every day, and has been doing it for six consecutive days."
"I know, I know. Who in the Alchemy Guild doesn't know about this now?"
A group of warriors gathered together to talk about the major events that happened in the past few days. The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the appearance of a fierce man who is crazy about completing tasks.
According to the feedback from the Alchemy Guild, this person has at least completed nearly 30,000 points of merit in six days.
30,000 points of merit in six days, what an amazing number. You know, many two-star alchemists may not be able to obtain so many merits in a year.
"This person's alchemy skills are really admirable. I happen to have a few kinds of elixirs that need an alchemist to help me refine. I wonder if this person is willing." A warrior said.
"Don't think about it. Do you think no one has asked him to refine elixirs in the past few days? He refused them all. He is concentrating on completing tasks, as if he is preparing to impact the realm of a three-star alchemist." The warrior next to him said.
Three-star alchemists can be counted on one's fingers in the entire Tiannan Empire. They are the ones that all warriors want to curry favor with!
"No way, to become a three-star alchemist!"
"What's impossible? Recently, someone has opened a bet on when he will become a three-star alchemist!"
Qin Feng exhaled a long breath and put the refined pills into the pill bottle. There were already a lot of pill bottles around him, exactly one hundred bottles.
After sending these refined pills to the counter and counting them clearly, Qin Feng's merits have reached 50,300 points, reaching the assessment threshold for a three-star alchemist.
"I apply for the assessment of a three-star alchemist!" Qin Feng said.
"Buzz!" Chu Xiaoli trembled when he learned that Qin Feng applied for the assessment of a three-star alchemist. Gu Tong, who was sitting opposite him, also had an incredible look on his face.
When Qin Feng became a two-star alchemist, they had already noticed this talented young man. They had no doubt that Qin Feng would become a three-star alchemist. It was just a matter of time.
However, even if they had confidence in Qin Feng, they thought it would take at least two months for Qin Feng to become a three-star alchemist.
However, only more than 20 days had passed, and Qin Feng had already accumulated 50,000 merits. Isn't this speed of alchemy too exaggerated?
"Can you do it if it's you?" Chu Xiaoli looked at Gu Tong.
Gu Tong rolled his eyes: "You and I have worked together for so many years, and you don't know how good my alchemy skills are. Although I have a 60% success rate in refining second-grade pills, I can only refine 30 to 40 times a day at most. I can't do it like him, who refines more than 100 furnaces of pills every day."
Chu Xiaoli also nodded with a wry smile. He was about the same. There were only four three-star alchemists in the Imperial Capital Alchemy Guild, and the remaining two three-star alchemists were on par with them. I don't think they could do it.
A group of three-star alchemists were actually compared to a two-star alchemist, which made them feel hot.
"It is still not possible to refine one hundred second-grade pills in one day!" Gu Tong sighed.
"But he did it. Maybe he has a powerful alchemy skill that we have never seen before!" Chu Xiaoli said.
Some alchemists who join the Alchemy Guild have their own unique alchemy skills. The Alchemy Guild will not ask about this. If the other party is willing to hand over this alchemy skill to the Alchemy Guild, the Alchemy Guild will also reward them with a large amount of merit.
The highest star in the Imperial Capital Alchemy Guild is the three-star alchemist. Now Qin Feng has applied for the three-star alchemist assessment. This is a big deal for the Imperial Capital Alchemy Guild. One person alone cannot host this assessment.
"Call Zheng Yuan and Yang Shao. The four of us will host this assessment together!" Chu Xiaoli said.
Gu Tong was shocked. The assessment has always been hosted by two three-star alchemists. This time, four people will host it together. It can also be seen how much Chu Xiaoli values Qin Feng.
"I'll arrange it right away!" Gu Tong nodded.
"Boy, don't let me down." Chu Xiaoli looked at the bustling crowd below. The Tiannan Alchemy Guild had been weak for a long time and needed a genius to stand up.
Gu Tong broke into Zheng Yuan's alchemy room. Zheng Yuan, who was refining the elixir, was shocked. The fire in his hand was out of control. There was a burst in the elixir furnace, followed by a burning smell.
Zheng Yuan was furious: "Are you sick?"
"The president wants to see you!" Gu Tong glanced at the furnace of waste elixir.
"What's the matter? Do you know what elixir I'm refining? It's a third-grade lower-level elixir. This furnace of elixir has been ruined by you. You must compensate!" Zheng Yuan roared.
Gu Tong rolled his eyes: "Even if I don't come, you may not be able to refine it. Hurry up, something important is happening!"
Zheng Yuan snorted and followed Gu Tong: "What's the big deal?"
"A young man applied for the three-star alchemist assessment, and the president wants all of us three-star alchemists to be present!" Gu Tong said.
"Who is so arrogant that he wants all of our three-star alchemists to be present? Didn't it only take two people in the past?" Zheng Yuan curled his lips, very dissatisfied with this.
"If it only took you more than 20 days to go from two stars to three stars, the president would do the same!" Gu Tong laughed.
Zheng Yuan's pupils shrank: "You are not kidding, it only took more than 20 days, 50,000 merits?"
"Do you think I look like a joke?" Gu Tong snorted.
"Then we have to hurry up, call that old guy Yang Shao, I want to see what kind of person he is!" Zheng Yuan got interested and kicked open the door of Yang Shao's alchemy room.
Yang Shao, who was resting on the bed, jumped up in shock. Seeing that it was Zheng Yuan who kicked the door, he wanted to rush over and strangle him to death.
He stayed up all night to refine a furnace of third-grade lower-level elixir, and was exhausted. Not long after he lay down, he was awakened by Zheng Yuan.
"If you don't give me an explanation today, I will never let you go!" Yang Shao, who was pale, said viciously.
Zheng Yuan chuckled: "It's going to be fun. Our president has found a promising talent and now invites a few of us to assess him together."
"Three-star alchemist assessment, you two can go, don't bother me, I need to catch up on my sleep." Yang Shao lay down again.
"Sorry, the president means that the four of us will assess him together!" Gu Tong added.
Even though he was extremely reluctant, he couldn't disobey the president's order, so Yang Shao followed Gu Tong and the others out.
From a two-star alchemist to a three-star alchemist, 50,000 merits are only secondary. The real difficulty is to master the refining of five third-grade elixirs.
Fifty thousand merits can be collected sooner or later as long as time is spent. There are many two-star alchemists who have collected 50,000 merits in the Imperial Capital Alchemist Guild, but these people have not been promoted to three-star alchemists for a long time, and they are all stuck with these five third-grade elixirs.
Apart from other things, it is not so easy to obtain the recipe of the third-grade elixir. In the alchemy guild, the cheapest recipe of the third-grade elixir costs 10,000 merits. The merits required to buy the recipe alone are difficult for many two-star alchemists.
Moreover, it is not possible to refine the elixir with the recipe. Experience needs to be accumulated, and a large amount of materials will be consumed during the process, and the sum of these materials is an astronomical figure.
It is well known that it is easy for alchemists to make money, but it is extremely expensive to train an alchemist. Even if there are mountains of gold and silver, it is not enough to train a high-level alchemist.
This is why Chu Xiaoli and others were so surprised when they knew that Qin Feng applied for the three-star alchemist assessment. Qin Feng not only has a strong alchemy skill, but he also has at least five recipes for the third-grade elixir.
Refining five third-grade elixirs, each has ten chances, and a success rate of one in ten, which is a passing line for the third-grade elixir.
Qin Feng didn't expect such a big battle. There were actually four alchemists in this assessment. Judging from the emblems on their chests, all four of them were three-star alchemists!
"Qin Feng, in view of your outstanding performance in the past few days, all four three-star alchemists of the Imperial Capital Alchemy Guild are here. I hope you can perform well!" Chu Xiaoli said.
Qin Feng nodded and handed over the five third-grade elixirs he was going to refine this time. They were all third-grade lower-level elixirs.
The third-grade lower-level elixir Zhenyuan Dan is the most commonly used elixir by Zhenyuan realm warriors. It can strengthen and condense Zhenyuan.
The third-grade lower-level elixir Qingxin Dan can purify the mind and spirit after taking it, greatly improving the effect of cultivation.
The third-grade lower-level elixir Huichun Dan can produce blood and regenerate muscles. Even if you are seriously injured, taking one pill can save your life.
The third-grade lower-level elixir Huiyuan Dan can greatly increase the speed of Zhenyuan recovery after taking it, which is extremely useful in battle.
The third-grade lower-level elixir, the Soul-Nourishing Pill, nourishes the soul and strengthens the soul.
If the first four kinds of elixirs are just ordinary third-grade elixirs, then the fifth Soul-Nourishing Pill is extremely precious. The soul is extremely important to warriors, and the natural treasures that can nourish the soul are extremely precious, not to mention elixirs.
They have also heard of the Soul-Nourishing Pill. It is said that someone in other alchemy guilds has also refined this kind of elixir, but in the territory of the Tiannan Empire, no alchemist can refine it.
"Are you sure you want to refine the Soul-Nourishing Pill?" Chu Xiaoli looked solemn.
"It just so happened that I found a Soul-Nourishing Grass in the Million Monster Mountain, so I was going to refine the Soul-Nourishing Pill!" Qin Feng replied.
Chu Xiaoli and the other four looked at each other. From what this kid said, he had mastered far more than these five third-grade elixirs, and he refined these five only because he had the materials for these five elixirs.
"Let's get started!" Chu Xiaoli said.
"You'd better be mentally prepared. This kid's alchemy skills are a bit unique!" Gu Tong reminded.
"Tsk, again..." Yang Shao was choked as soon as he opened his mouth, staring at the front in amazement!
