Become a supporting role at the beginning of the fight

Dou Qi Continent, Jia Ma Empire, the Imperial Capital!

Just when Xiao Fan was still waiting for the opportunity to leave the Black Skull Tomb, there was still one month left before the three-year appointment between Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran.

The Jia Ma Empire also ushered in a grand ceremony - the Alchemist Conference.

The Alchemist Competition Square is bustling with people.

Countless spectators were sitting around the conference square, looking at the huge steps built in the center. The steps are several feet high from the ground, allowing the surrounding audience to watch the performance of each alchemist more clearly. On the steps, more than 2,000 alchemists each arrived at their own position to refine medicine, waiting for the referee's whistle to start.

In the center of the stone platform, there are more than ten positions higher than the positions of other contestants. These positions are specially prepared for contestants who have passed the internal selection of the Alchemist Guild and have outstanding results.

Under the spotlight, many contestants arrived at their respective positions.

"In the name of the president of the Jiama Empire Alchemist Union, I announce that the 7th Alchemist Conference has begun!"

The voice of Fa Ma, the president of the Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Guild, with the blessing of Dou Qi, could easily be heard throughout the noisy conference site, ringing in the ears of every audience.

"boom!"

The whole place was filled with excitement and cheers resounded throughout the imperial capital.

The first round of the Alchemist Conference has officially begun.

More than two thousand alchemists lit fires and made elixirs in their respective positions, which shocked the surrounding spectators.

After all, the status of alchemists in Dou Qi Continent is already noble, and it is very rare on ordinary days. But now thousands of alchemists gathered together to make elixirs. All kinds of flames rose, and the scene was filled with a strong fragrance of medicine, which made the surrounding audience They all felt that this trip was worthwhile.

There is a huge hourglass erected next to the square. The first round of assessment is to successfully deduce the recipe for the Erping elixir "Birth Bone Pill" from the broken recipe given by the Alchemist Guild before the end of the hourglass. The elixir was successfully refined.

The medicinal materials prepared by the conference for each contestant are only two servings. Once they fail, they will be eliminated.

As the last sand from the hourglass fell, one-third of the alchemists on the square failed to refine the correct "Bone-Regenerating Pill", and the alchemy table in front of them erupted into a dazzling red light beam. This represents the failure of their alchemist conference.

The second round of the competition is to successfully refine the elixir according to the elixir recipe given by the Alchemist Guild.

Everyone was surprised when they looked at the exam questions in front of them.

Not too difficult, but too easy.

By refining elixirs according to the elixir recipe, for the alchemist, as long as the elixir recipe is not too difficult, it can basically be successfully refined.

As for the young man on one of the trait tables in the middle, Xiao Yan stared at the pill formula in front of him, feeling something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

There were no problems with Xiao Yan's refining and fusion, but at the last moment when the elixir was about to become a pill, the elixir inside might have turned into dark dregs, which represented the failure of Xiao Yan's refining.

Xiao Yan's failure was not the first. Many of the alchemists around him had failed, and none of them had figured out the reason for their failure.

"The recipe given by the organizer is fake!"

"How is this possible? I didn't make any mistakes. Everything was done according to the recipe."

There was only an inconspicuous corner of the alchemy table, a man in gray robes, with a badge on his chest, and a sun rising slowly from the horizon. He was the enemy of the Gama Empire, the Izumo Empire. badge.

"Hmph! Are these little tricks again..." A faint voice sounded from his mouth, and then he began to refine it skillfully. His skillful techniques made the surrounding alchemists greatly stressed, and they showed envious expressions, but when they saw him After wearing the emblem of the Cloud Empire on his chest, it immediately turned into disdain and hatred.

At the VIP table, Fa Ma stood with his hands behind his hands, his eyes fixed on the young man in gray robe, and said doubtfully: "Such a skillful technique, even many third-level alchemists do not have it. Without decades of experience in alchemy, it is determined." It’s impossible to master, but I haven’t heard that the Izumo Empire has such an alchemy genius? And, they are so confident in letting such a genius participate in the Alchemist Conference?”

Then he turned his eyes and looked at Xiao Fan and others.

"You little guys, please don't be careless..."

Most people speculate that the champion of this alchemist conference will be born between the little princess of the Jiama Empire, Liu Ling of the Yunlan Sect, and the biggest dark horse Yan Xiao.

After all, the little princess's alchemy refining skills are famous far and wide, and Liu Ling is the personal disciple of Gu He, the Alchemy King of the Jiama Empire, and Yan Xiao has entered the world of many people because he solved the strange poison of the head of the Nalan family that Gu He also had trouble with. In the eyes of the empire's top brass. Everyone has high hopes for the three of them.

In the stands, Nalan Yanran looked at the many alchemists who looked at each other like dumbfounded fools after the refining failed, and said softly: "Although I am not an alchemist, but I also know that when refining according to the elixir recipe, It can greatly increase the success rate of refining medicine, but it seems that not only other alchemists, but also Liu Ling and the little princess have failed."

Not far away from Nalan Yanran, Yaoye's slender legs were casually placed on top of the other leg, and her small feet were swinging casually. Looking at the strange atmosphere in the square, she said strangely: "This test question seems to contain something hidden inside." What a mystery."

Returning to the refining table and looking at the ashes in his medicine cauldron, Xiao Yan thought carefully about his refining process.

"There is no problem with my alchemy technique, but the only problem is the elixir recipe..." Xiao Yan carefully considered the prescriptions provided by the conference in his own mind, and soon discovered the conflict of medicinal properties.

"Is that so..."

As the dark horse of the alchemist conference, Xiao Yan received a lot of attention. His refining failure attracted the attention of the alchemists around him.

"Did even Yan Xiao fail to refine it?"

The surrounding alchemists looked at the medicinal materials turned to ashes in Yan Xiao's medicine cauldron, and many alchemists said in disappointment.

"Hehe, they are a bunch of losers. The alchemists of the Gama Empire are nothing more than that. It seems that the champion of this second round is mine."

Just when everyone was disappointed, a sarcastic voice gradually sounded on the alchemy table.

"Who?"

"Who is speaking?"

"It's him, a spy from the Izumo Empire."

The alchemists around him quickly found the speaker. It was the young man from the Izumo Empire in gray robes. Many alchemists were angry at his words, but they had no way to refute.

"Not always!"

Yan Xiao's faint voice sounded, and then he showed a confident smile and looked at the gray-robed boy.

"Oh, so what if you find out now, your speed in refining medicinal materials is still not as fast as mine. I, the Izumo Empire, have decided on this first place."

"hehe..."

Xiao Yan did not reply, but smiled faintly, and then, a green fire light lit up from his palm.

"This...blue flame?"

With the appearance of the green flame, the many alchemists on the alchemy table and the flames in the medicine cauldron all bent slightly in the direction of Xiao Yan's flame. It was like a pilgrimage, which amazed many alchemists and spectators.

"What...what's going on?"

"These flames are worshiping...? Are flames alive?"

At the VIP table, Fa Ma looked at the green flame in Xiao Yan's palm and murmured: "Strange fire! It turns out it's real..."

Liu Ling and the little princess, who were not far away from Xiao Yan, were also surprised by Xiao Yan's sudden use of strange fire.

"It turns out that during the internal assessment, wasn't his full strength revealed?"

With the emergence of Xiao Yan's strange fire, the speed of refining medicinal materials has also increased significantly. The alchemists around have also stopped what they are doing. Anyway, if they continue, if the reason is not found, the refining has failed. It is better to take a look at these two people. Enter the Dragon.

Everyone in the conference was attracted by the refining work of Xiao Yan and the gray-robed boy from the Izumo Empire.

"The alchemist of the Izumo Empire was extremely skilled in his techniques and didn't waste any time. Even if Yan Xiao had the advantage of the strange fire, he fell behind at the beginning and might still be unable to catch up." Fa Ma looked at the skilled extractions in the field. The two people working on the medicinal materials spoke softly.

"Haha, even if you have the strange fire, it still has no effect if you lag behind me." The gray-robed boy mocked, and then continued his refining steps. As long as he continues, even if the rock owl has the strange fire, he still can't catch up. He, when the time comes, he will be able to crush the alchemists of the Gama Empire.

Two medicine cauldrons, two kinds of green and yellow flames, all the medicinal materials have been put into the medicine cauldron, quietly waiting for the arrival of the elixir, attracting everyone's attention.

As time passed, the faint scent of medicine spread through the two medicine cauldrons.

"The rock owl elixir is about to be ready!"

"The people from the Nagama Empire are faster!"

"No, if we continue like this, we won't be able to catch up." Xiao Yan glanced at the stove in front of the gray-robed boy, narrowed his eyes, and then decisively patted the medicine cauldron. The green fire broke through the alchemy furnace.

"Reckless!" Fa Ma looked at Xiao Yan's actions and slapped the table in front of him excitedly. "The elixir has not yet been completely formed. If it comes into contact with the air, it will completely cause the unsolidified parts inside to disintegrate, and it will fail!"

"How dare he." Liu Ling and the little princess were also shocked from ear to ear by Xiao Yan's actions and couldn't help but say.

"You lunatic!" The gray-robed boy saw Xiao Yan's actions and shouted excitedly. Just to get rid of himself in the subsequent refining, he took such a big risk and released the elixir in advance. In his opinion, Xiao Yan was like a madman.

Amidst the overwhelming roars and surprises of the crowd, Xiao Yan sent out the elixir from the elixir furnace, which was roasted by the strange fire. After nearly a minute, it finally took shape in the green flames, and the rich fragrance of the medicine filled the air. In the venue.

"Phew...he succeeded!"

Looking at the young man on the refining platform, everyone made sounds of excitement and joy.

"Hmph!" The gray-robed boy said fearfully. "Don't be complacent, there's still a third game!"

Xiao Yan glanced defiantly at the gray-robed boy and the alchemists around him. Pretending to be inadvertent, he picked up the "Thick Tuzhi" on his refining table and threw it aside casually.

The alchemists around him seemed to have understood something, and cast grateful glances at him, and then stepped up their refining efforts.
