Chapter 257 The Results of the First Round (Asking for Monthly Votes)

Try elixir?

Many sect elders and powerful men who were watching on the high platform also had puzzled faces.

There was no such link in testing poison pills in the past.

"It seems that this time the Danta Conference is indeed well prepared."

Although confused, these strong men were not shocked. After knowing the list of newcomers, they expected that Danta would definitely change in this newcomer competition.

Although the poison-testing pill has never appeared before, with the guarantee of the Danta Society, its safety is naturally no problem.

"What is the test for this poison pill test?"

The strong outsiders were frowning at this moment. They didn't understand why the Danta Association would conduct such an assessment.

"Trying the Poison Pill, the seniors of the Danta Club are really ingenious in this round of assessment."

"how do I say this?"

Among the alchemists watching from the outside of the square, some were suddenly enlightened, while others were puzzled.

"We, the alchemists, have not done much research on poisonous elixirs, and since the Danta Association will take out poisonous elixirs, they must be newly refined poisonous elixirs. It is impossible for these players to recognize this poisonous elixir."

An alchemist in the late Nascent Soul stage slowly spoke, suddenly attracting the attention of other alchemists present, including some onlookers from the outer realm.

"Comrades should be familiar with the matter of identifying elixirs, but the Danta Association has already told everyone that this is a poisonous elixir, so it is no longer feasible to judge whether it is poisonous based on the ingredients of the elixir."

Many alchemists around showed recognition. Alchemy identification is a very familiar link for alchemists. From small friends to communicating through alchemy identification, to whenever there is an alchemy competition between sects, the identification of elixirs is a very familiar link. Dan is also an indispensable link.

"This round not only tests these contestants' judgment on the ingredients of the elixir, but also tests these contestants' understanding of toxicology." The old man stroked his beard and his eyes flashed: "What's more important is the judgment of the weight of various medicinal materials in the elixir. I think I can’t do this.”

The old man's words immediately caused the alchemists around him to explode. They also had to determine the proportion of each medicinal ingredient in an elixir. How could this be done?

If this could be done, wouldn't it be possible to reconstruct the recipe for the elixir based on the elixir? Wouldn't those secret scrolls of elixir recipes be worthless?

"It's impossible to guess everything. We can only roughly infer one or two kinds, and then choose based on the toxicity of these two medicinal materials. There is also a certain amount of luck in this round. Logically speaking, Danta will not allow it. Luck wins."

Beside, a middle-aged man added something, and then he was doubtful. The old man who spoke before smiled and said: "In our opinion, there is luck, but in the eyes of the seniors of the Danta Society, there are so many geniuses in this session. , maybe these geniuses can do it.”

In the center of the square, the old man raised his hand, and thirty-six rays of light shot out from his sleeves and robes. The light was suspended in mid-air, revealing the true appearance of the elixir inside.

Thirty-six pills with different colors.

"Each of you choose an elixir. If multiple people choose the same elixir, write down the ingredients of the elixir. The person with the most ingredients will get the elixir, and the rest will be ranked last in this round. "

Huang Ruyuan glanced at all the players in the square, and his words made the expressions of these players become solemn.

After knowing the contents of this round of competition, several contestants really made their minds up and just followed the popular contestants to choose elixirs.

In the rookie competition, not all players' goals are to reach the first level. Many players' goals are very simple, which is to protect the sect from relegation.

But now the words of this powerful master have stopped their little thoughts.

Once you choose the same elixir with those others, you have to compete to analyze the ingredients of the elixir. If you fail in the competition, it will end immediately. It is better to choose another elixir by yourself.

After the old man announced the rules, many players in the square all stared at the thirty-six suspended pills, and no one made a choice first.

Identifying the elixir is a major difficulty, but more importantly, if you are not completely sure about choosing it first, if someone else chooses the same elixir later, it will be equivalent to handing over the initiative to the other party.

"Now let's see who makes the choice first."

"The first person to make a choice has extremely high confidence in his ability to identify elixirs."

Many strong men on the high platform were looking at Chu Ning and other players in the square with smiles. After a quarter of an hour, a young man in white brocade took the first step.

"As expected, he was the first among the Lu Si to make the choice. He is worthy of being the Young Master of Lu Men."

The man in white stood under the sixth pill, facing the other players with a confident smile on his face.

"The second one should be Zhang Ji or Tong Shouxian."

"It's really Tong Shouxian. He chose the twenty-third pill. Hey, who is this person? He also chose the twenty-third pill."

A burst of discussion broke out outside the square. As a newcomer to the Lower Domain, Tong Shouxian was given a Grade A evaluation by the Xinhuo Palace. At that time, four Grade A sects competed for him, and he was finally accepted as a disciple by the Xuandan Pavilion.

"Judging from the clothes on this person, he should be a disciple of Danshan Sect, but I don't know if it is Chu Ning or Zhang Sheng."

The thirty-six contestants Chu Ning also wear the clothes of their respective sects, and people outside can recognize them at a glance.

On the high platform, when he saw Chu Ning and Tong Shouxian walking towards the twenty-third pill almost at the same time, Lu Yingguang, who was sitting next to him, started laughing.

"Elder Qin, the disciples of your sect are quite brave and choose to compete with Tong Shouxian."

Unfortunately, Qin Libang and the others could not hear his words because of the light shield.

"How could it be such a coincidence that the choice is the same as Tong Shouxian's? I'm afraid something will happen this time."

Elders Chen and Zhao of Danshan Sect had wry smiles on their faces, but Qin Libang looked at Qi Shiyun and asked, "What does Elder Qi think of Chu Ning's choice?"

"Chun Ning and Tong Shou came out at the same time, so there is no mutual opposition between the two sides. It can only be said that both of them have spotted this elixir. I think Chu Ning should have noticed this elixir when he chose it. The ingredients of the medicine.”

Qi Shiyun also had a look of worry on her face. It was a good thing to have spotted the elixir, but it was not a good thing if her competitor was Tong Shouxian.

Chu Ning smiled helplessly at Tong Shouxian. He also knew the identity of this person. The master gave him a copy of the list of the newcomer competition, and informed him of the names of the contestants when he first entered the square. name.

They all came from the lower realm. Chu Ning didn't really want to compete with Tong Shouxian, but he had no choice. Under the scanning of his thirty-six elixirs, only the twenty-third elixir had the following side effects. The most acceptable.

To be honest, when he saw the introduction about the side effects of these thirty-six pills in the Secret Mirror, he was confused for a while. In the end, he could only say that this pill tower is really good at playing.

Tong Shouxian looked at Chu Ning expressionlessly. He knew very well that the person in front of him did not follow the choice he made, but just like himself, he came straight to this pill, so the other party also judged this. The ingredients of the elixir.

This alone made him wary.

After Chu Ning and Tong Shouxian collided, a short while later, on the high platform, Elder Zhao of Danshan Sect shouted angrily: "Seven Fire Sect is bullying people too much!"

Elder Zhao looked at the location of Qihuomen next door, and Lu Yingguang and others from Qihuomen also happened to look over, with proud smiles on their faces.

"The Seven Fire Sect is actually playing dirty tricks!"

The reason why Elder Zhao was so angry was that if the collision between Chu Ning and Tong Shouxian was a coincidence, then Zhang Sheng and Li Tao from the Qihuo Sect had grabbed the same pill again, which was the intention of the Qihuo Sect.

Li Tao was the newcomer that Danshan Sect favored at the beginning, but was later poached by Qihuo Sect. Danshan Sect naturally knew Li Tao's strength, and he was definitely much stronger than Zhang Sheng.

Moreover, Zhang Sheng chose the elixir first, and Li Tao came up behind him. This move was definitely aimed at Zhang Sheng deliberately.

Li Tao and Zhang Sheng had no grievances, and there must have been instructions from the elders of the Qihuo Sect behind this. Thinking of the previous bet, Qi Shiyun and the others knew that Lu Yingguang was not an impromptu move, but was well prepared.

"It doesn't matter, it's just the first round."

Qin Libang looked calm, but the coldness in his eyes was bottomless.

The secret fight between Danshan Sect and Qihuo Sect was not visible to many monks present, because there were quite a few players crashing on the field at the moment.

Chu Ning squinted his eyes and looked towards Zhang Sheng. After he selected the elixir, he also paid attention to Zhang Sheng's choice. When Zhang Sheng chose the elixir, a man originally walked towards another elixir. , turned around and walked towards where Zhang Sheng was.

Is this person deliberately targeting Zhang Sheng?

A disciple of the Seven Fire Sect?

Seeing the sect mark on the other party's clothes, Chu Ning thought of what his master had told him about the grievances between the sect and the Qihuo Sect.

Especially the recent incident where a talented disciple was poached by the Seven Fire Sect.

If these Seven Fire Sect disciples specifically target Zhang Sheng, I am afraid that Zhang Sheng will lose this round.

"You cannot change your choice after a quarter of an hour!"

Huang Ruyuan's voice came out, and many players who had crashed breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they could still change their choices.

Tong Shou first looked at Chu Ning. When he saw Chu Ning really walking away, for some reason, he felt relieved.

"Obviously this person was afraid of me and left voluntarily. How can I feel lucky for this?"

Tong Shou first dismissed the ridiculous thoughts in his mind, but Chu Ning now walked towards the elixir where Zhang Sheng and Li Tao were.

"Senior Brother Zhang, Junior Brother is interested in this elixir. Please give it up and choose another one."

Chu Ning smiled and spoke to Zhang Sheng. Zhang Sheng's eyes were filled with gratitude. He knew that Junior Brother Chu had come to rescue him.

Facing Li Tao, he really had no chance of winning. He chose this pill purely out of intuition.

"Okay, let me give it to my junior brother."

Zhang Sheng excused himself and walked away, while Li Tao frowned and looked at Chu Ning. Before entering the square, Elder Lu told him that if there was a chance, he would step on the disciples of Danshan Sect.

Although he didn't know why Elder Lu gave such an order, he would naturally not disobey Elder Lu's instructions.

The man in front of me is also a disciple of Danshan Sect. By comparing him to him, I have completed the task assigned by Elder Lu.

Thinking of this, Li Tao sneered and said, "Do you know who I am?"

"Who are you?"

Chu Ning's sincere inquiry immediately silenced Li Tao, because Li Tao didn't know how to answer. In the end, he just hummed and said nothing.

The changes in the players in the square also caused a discussion among the monks onlookers. Chu Ning gave up competing with Tong Shouxian, which everyone thought was cowardly, but it was also a normal choice.

"Chun Ning discovered Zhang Sheng's situation and came to help Applause."

"Haha, you did a good job. This way you avoided Tong Shouxian and suppressed Li Tao. I have confidence in Chu Ning."

Danshan Sect smiled when they saw Chu Ning changing his choice and Zhang Sheng choosing the elixir that no one else could compete with.

This is the best way to solve the problem.

"Now that the selection has been completed, the repeater will take out the jade abbreviation and write down the ingredients of the elixir. If you think you have deduced all the ingredients of the elixir, you can also write down the amount of each medicinal ingredient."

Huang Ruyuan spoke slowly, and a dozen contestants who crashed took out blank jade slips and began to put their spiritual consciousness into them to write down the ingredients of the elixir.

Chu Ning held the jade slip, but was not in a hurry to write. There was a look of hesitation on his face. This scene fell into Li Tao's eyes, and he felt that Chu Ning was so hesitant because he was not sure about the ingredients of the elixir.

In fact, the reason for Chu Ning's hesitation was that he was thinking about whether to write down the quantities of ingredients used to refine this elixir.

Strategically, despise your opponents, but tactically, you must pay attention to your opponents.

What if this person also determines the ingredients of the elixir?

"Forget it, I'll just write it all down just in case."

Chu Ning finally decided to write down the weights of all the ingredients in this elixir, so that he should be able to defeat his opponent reliably.

During tea time, all the contestants who crashed gave their answers.

Huang Ruyuan's eyes seemed to be cloudy, but in fact they were full of energy. His eyes were on several popular players, as well as the new disciple of Danshan Sect that he had just noticed.

The new member of the Danshan Sect had just chosen an elixir almost at the same time as Tong Shouxian, and that elixir had the least side effects among all the elixirs.

Based on this alone, he was somewhat interested in this little guy.

It's just that the little guy finally gave up competing with Tong Shouxian, which made him a little disappointed, but he still kept some attention on the little guy.

Holding the jade slips of these contestants in front of him, Huang Ruyuan's spiritual consciousness swept over them one by one.

"You failed, and your results in this round are at the bottom!"

A contestant whose name was called turned pale, smiled bitterly and stepped back, while the other contestant who competed with him for the elixir had a happy face.

"伱, failed, last grade in this round!"

After three consecutive contestants failed, it was soon the turn of Chu Ning and Li Tao's jade slips.

Chu Ning's expression was calm and unaffected by the previous teams. Although Li Tao had a smile on his face, if you look closely you can see the reluctance underneath the smile.

Huang Ruyuan's spiritual consciousness first scanned Li Tao's jade slip, and there was no movement on his old face. When his consciousness landed on Chu Ning's jade slip, there was a glimmer of light deep in his eyes.

"You failed, and your results in this round are at the bottom!"

The smile on Li Tao's face froze instantly. He actually lost?

As the smiles froze, there were also the elders of the Seven Fire Sect on the high platform.

Lu Yingguang immediately looked at the next door, and happened to meet Qin Libang's faint smile.

"Haha, seeing the old guy Lu Yingguang's shocked expression, I feel extremely happy. Chu Ning did a great job this time."

Elder Zhao laughed loudly, and Qi Shiyun also smiled. Chu Ning defeated Li Tao and gained face for the sect.

The Qihuo Sect poached Li Tao, which was equivalent to a slap in the face to Danshan Sect, and now that Chu Ning defeated Li Tao, it was a slap in the face to the Qihuo Sect and Li Tao.

"This is only the first round!"

Li Tao reluctantly whispered to Chu Ning. He already hated Chu Ning in his heart. If Chu Ning hadn't stepped in, he would have killed Zhang Sheng.

"You failed, and your results in this round are at the bottom!"

…

…

Huang Ruyuan gave the winners and losers to the subsequent teams of players, and the remaining players were the players who occupied one pill alone.

In this wave, seven players were ranked last, which made the remaining players feel much more relaxed.

They will never wait any longer and at worst have a D rating.

Just when everyone thought that the senior grandmaster wanted everyone to start taking elixirs, Huang Ruyuan's eyes turned back to Chu Ning unexpectedly.

"I ask you, is this pill the best pill you have chosen?"

Huang Ruyuan's unconventional play made the players present look confused and their eyes fell on Chu Ning.

There was a commotion among the many monks watching from the outside of the square.

What type of situation is this?

In a palace in the East City area, Yun Anlan was soaking in a hot spring, her fair shoulders looming in the mist. There was a huge light screen in front of her, and the scene of Huang Ruyuan asking Chu Ning was playing at the moment.

Subconsciously, Yun Anlan Liuye frowned, and the next moment he said via voice transmission: "Immediately adjust Chu Ning's odds to the same odds as those of the five popular players."

She sensed something was wrong.

Grandmaster Huang would ask in person, which would have revealed a lot of information.

…

Chu Ning also had a look of astonishment on his face at this moment. He didn't expect this powerful master to ask such a question.

This pill was naturally not his best choice, and he couldn't say that he chose this pill just to suppress the Seven Fire Sect.

Although many players will compete secretly in the rookie competition, this matter cannot be brought to the table.

Chu Ning was silent for a few moments, and just as he was ready to speak, Huang Ruyuan continued: "I understand."

Chu Ning:......

Huang Ruyuan withdrew his gaze from Chu Ning and glanced at everyone.

"Although these elixirs are harmless to the body, some side effects are not so pleasant. I will give you a chance to choose the appropriate antidote from many elixirs. If you choose the wrong one, your score will be lowered by one level. Of course, you You don’t have to choose, just take the elixir now!”

As Huang Ruyuan finished speaking, Chu Ning and others put the elixir into their mouths without hesitation.

The elixir enters the mouth with a sour taste.

Chu Ning didn't expect that there would be a twist and turn, and he would have the opportunity to choose an antidote. The pill he chose had a side effect of uncontrollable laughter.

He was already prepared to be embarrassed, but he didn't expect that there would be a chance to make amends.
