Chapter 57: Sensation
"Yin Family, Yin Yuanhua, zero points."
"South Direction Clan, Dongfang Jian, eighteen points."
"Mountain and River Medical Center, Mu Qingqing, twenty-five points."
...
The woman in red said each name one by one.
Naturally, these scores did not mean that they had answered a few questions correctly, but it could also be seen that they had written the names of several medicinal materials.
First of all, the condition for passing the first round of assessment was to write the names of at least two hundred kinds of medicinal materials, and the woman in red said before: the person who wrote the name would be eligible to participate in the second round of assessment.
In other words, those who could not write up to two hundred names failed the test.
That being the case, it was not difficult to speculate: 200 should be a watershed, starting from 200, people could get a few points by writing the names of a few more medicinal materials.
In turn, that Yin Yuanhua guy of the Yin Family was so lucky that he was able to write random 200 names, and passed the first round of assessment dangerously yet amazingly. Dongfang Jian of the South Direction Clan wrote the names of 218 medicinal materials. Mu Qingqing from the Mountain and River Medical Center wrote the names of 225 medicinal materials.
After reading the names and scores of six people in a row, the woman in red continued, "Spirit Medicine Valley's Mo Ling'er, 95 points."
Hearing this, a trace of triumph in Mo Ling'er's eyes as if everything was in her expectation.
Those who did not hear their names so far had a sad look. After all, this score was announced from low to high, and they were not confident that they could surpass Mo Ling'er.
Mu Qingqing, who had already obtained the qualification for the second round of assessment, couldn't help but glance at Mo Xiu, the sarcasm in his eyes was very obvious.
She hadn't heard the three words "Lin Wuji" yet. In her opinion, Mo Xiu would definitely not be eligible to participate in the second round of assessment.
She didn't know why Mo Xiu could still sit peacefully, but after knowing that Mo Xiu was not qualified to participate in the second round of assessment, she was slightly relieved.
"Look down on our Mountain and River Medical Center? Act arrogant in front of me? This is your retribution!"
"It's all right now, can you show this lady your arrogance again?"
"A person who can't even get the qualification for the second round of assessment dares to refuse this lady's invitation and shout in front of this lady too?"
As she was thinking to herself, she saw someone standing up.
"That... Did you miss a name?" the man asked with some lack of confidence.
The person who asked the question was naturally not Mo Xiu, and Mo Xiu would not do such things.
Everyone turned their gazes to the questioner, their expressions were a little weird as if they were saying: Are you blaming the people of the Alchemy League for not doing things seriously?
The woman in red was not angry but smiled and said, "You are right, there is indeed a name."
After a pause, she continued, "Lin Wuji of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, 100 points."
As soon as the name and score came out, the audience was silent for a while, and soon there was an uproar.
"Lin Wuji? Which one is Lin Wuji?"
"One hundred points? How could it be possible?"
"Has the names of all three hundred medicinal materials been written?"
"Isn't it said that even the people of the Alchemy League don't really understand the next five medicinal materials?"
"Is something wrong? There is someone who can get a higher score than Miss Ling'er too?"
...
Everyone felt very incredulous.
Mo Ling'er, who was still secretly proud just now, glanced back at Mo Xiu, her face a little ugly.
While Mu Qingqing was shocked, her face was even uglier.
She also taunted Mo Xiu just now, feeling that Mo Xiu failed the first round of assessment as her heart was relieved.
But in a blink of an eye, it was discovered that Mo Xiu not only passed the first round of assessment but also passed the score with full marks, which was higher than her third-to-last 25 points. How could this be called 'relieved'?
She stared at Mo Xiu for a while, her eyes flickering as she made up her mind that she would never let Mo Xiu pass the second round of assessment no matter what.
Seeing everyone making a noise, the woman in red quickly pressed her hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
When the noise gradually subsided and the room was quiet again, the woman in red confirmed, "You heard it right, it's 100 points. He wrote the names of all three hundred medicinal materials."
After explaining, she said, "The last five medicinal materials may not have been seen in the relevant medical classics. However, our Alchemy League has already mastered the detailed information about the five medicinal materials. After the information is confirmed, we will formally announce to people all over the world, so you don't have to doubt that there is a possibility of fraud in our Alchemy League assessment."
Having said that, everyone naturally did not dare to raise any questions, but those eyes that looked at Mo Xiu were still shocked.
It was hard to believe that this seemingly ordinary person was capable of overwhelming Mo Ling'er from the Spirit Medicine Valley and won first place in the first round of assessment with a full score.
Obviously, the last five medicinal materials were not well understood by the people of the Alchemy League. It was a miracle that this person could even write a name.
...
There were only twenty people who participated in the first round of assessment in the same group as Mo Xiu, but there were more than these twenty people who came to participate in the pharmacist certificate assessment.
After the first round of assessment of each batch was over, the list of all personnel who passed the first round of assessment and their scores would be shown on the public notice column.
After learning that someone had written the names of three hundred medicinal materials and got full marks at that, the other batches of people who passed the first round of assessment were also shocked.
There was a heated sensation in front of the bulletin board.
At the same time, everyone inquired one after another, paying attention to the name "Lin Wuji".
Rainbow Chamber of Commerce had also become famous, although it already had a very big reputation in Yan Capital itself.
Although Su Qianqian did not participate in the assessment of the pharmacist certificate, she also saw the publicly announced results in the bulletin board.
As the eldest lady of the Su Family who led the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, and as the person who invited Mo Xiu to join the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce at that, Su Qianqian was very shocked.
She herself was also a person who participated in this assessment of Alchemy League, knowing how difficult it was to pass the first round of assessment.
She believed that since Mo Xiu dared to participate in the assessment, it should not be difficult to pass the first round. However, she never thought that Mo Xiu could get full marks and get the first place.
Now, she finally knew why Mo Xiu dared to boast before, saying that the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce could ask him for any questions about medicinal materials. It turned out that Mo Xiu was not exaggerating but really had that ability.
After the surprise, Su Qianqian looked at the name "Lin Wuji" on the bulletin board and started to feel amazed. Listening to the comments of the people around her, she was a little bit happy.
After all, Mo Xiu joined the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce at her invitation, which made her proud.
...
Among the twenty people who participated in the first round of assessment in the same batch as Mo Xiu, only eight were qualified to participate in the second round of assessment, but the number of people who passed the first round of assessment in each batch was quite large.
At the beginning of the second round, the assessment was no longer in batches, but everyone gathered together and was taken to a spacious hall.
There were countless medicinal pots in the hall, there were also hills of medicinal materials on the only stone table in the hall, which showed the rich resources of the Alchemy League.
Mo Xiu glanced roughly and found that there were fifty-two people participating in the second round of assessment.
He didn't know if it was a coincidence, but the woman in red who presided over the second round of assessment was still the previous woman in red.
However, this time, there were no more people from the Alchemy League watching in various places, and even this hall did not have the array that isolated Spiritual Consciousness like the one before. It seemed that the second round of assessment did not need such a thing at all, and was not afraid of cheating.
"First of all, congratulations to everyone for passing the first round of assessment."
"Secondly, thank you all for coming to participate in the second round of assessment."
"The content of this round of assessment is medicine making. We will give ten prescriptions. You only have the time of one stick of incense. If you can brew five medicines within the time of one stick of incense, you will pass the second round of assessment."
"You can choose the medicine pot here, but everyone can only use one medicine pot to make medicine. If you use more than two medicine pots, we will cancel the results of this assessment and you won't be allowed to participate in any assessments of our Alchemy League for life."
After the woman in red finished speaking, someone immediately posted ten prescriptions and lit the incense by the way.
Mo Xiu glanced at the contents of the ten prescriptions and found that they were all common prescriptions. At least it was not difficult to prepare them. As long as there were enough medicinal materials and sufficient time, everyone present could formulate medicines corresponding to the ten prescriptions.
However, this was only theoretical, because Mo Xiu discovered that certain medicinal materials on the prescription were not provided in this assessment. In other words, everyone needed to rely on their own ability to find alternative medicinal materials. Otherwise, let alone ten kinds, even one kind of medicine could not be formulated.
In addition, this assessment only gave time for a stick of incense, such a little time was not enough at all. Everyone was even nervous even if there were only five medicines that they needed to pass this round of assessment.
In addition, only one medicine pot could be used from the beginning to the end of this assessment, which meant that after preparing a medicine, it must be cleaned once, otherwise, the residue of medicine would affect the preparation of the next pot of medicine.
Those who understood would naturally understand, but there were probably not many people who understood this truth, hence, many people would fail in this around by then.
After the incense was ignited, the assessment of this round had already begun, so after Mo Xiu quickly analyzed it, before everyone had reacted, he was the first to go to the stone table to select medicinal materials.
Seeing this, everyone ran to the stone table to snatch the medicinal materials.
The pile of herbs was robbed in the blink of an eye.
Some people couldn't even grab decent medicinal materials, which meant that the second round of assessment had just begun, simultaneously, that person had already been eliminated.
Mo Xiu had quick eyes and fast hands. Since he was also the first to take action, he got all the medicinal materials he needed.
However, after he had selected the pot, he found that Mu Qingqing at the back and Mo Ling'er on the left were all hostile to him.
The person on the right, Mo Xiu didn't know him, but that person didn't grab any decent medicinal materials just now, however, he didn't give up participating in the second round of assessment, the look that he directed at Mo Xiu always gave people an unkind feeling.
