Chapter 233: Chapter 233- Qi Detoxifying Pill

Immediately, the entire hall started trembling. The circular rings that was on the ground, slowly rose up until they were around one’s waist.

"Young man, you must be already familiar with the rules of the exam after taking the tier 1 test. However, let me give you some new instructions for the tier 3 exam. To pass the tier 1 exam, you just need to refine a basic pill like the Profound Strengthening Pill. However, Tier 3 isn’t going to be that easy"

"To get the rank of a tier 3 alchemist, you need to prove your ability by refining the one of the most challenging of pills of that tier. I will now list you a couple of pill recipes, you decide which one to refine among them. As for the ingredients, you will only get three pills worth of ingredients for the respective pill recipe"

"So carefully manage your ingredients, if you use too much in one refinement, you won’t have much for the next if the refinement fails. Furthermore, for this exam, the association wouldn’t be providing you with a cauldron. You need to rely on the cauldron in your possession to refine the tier 3 pill"

"The time limit would be the same, one hour. Look around you, there are sixty patterns in all the rings. Each time a minute passes by, one of the patterns will stop glowing. This will tell you how much time you have. You only have three tries, or as long as your ingredients last. If even after three tries you fail to refine a pill, you fail automatically. Needless to say, to pass the exam the grade of the pill should be Mortal tier at the very least. If you are clear with the rules, we can begin the exam"

The old branch manager with a weird beard who always had a smiling face, suddenly switched to a serious mode as he explained the rules to Yang Chen.

The latter calmly listened to the rules before nodding his head. Unlike the tier 1, the tier 3 exam was much more interesting. Not only the rules were more strict, but every failure constricted your chances for a success.

The ingredients were also needed to be used economically and one only had a certain number of tries. One out of three... that is to say, one needed to at least have 33.33 % chance to refine the tier 3 pill.

What’s more the pill also had to be of mortal grade at the very least. Although the rules sounded very restricting, he understood where it was coming from. In the day to day life, Alchemists do not have as many chances as they do during the tier 1 or tier 2 exams.

Not only are they working with a short period of time, they also need to refine trickier pills as commissioned by the customers and have limited ingredients to work with. If they fail, not only would they be destroying the hard earned ingredients of that customer, but also sullying their reputation.

An Alchemist needed to refine with all that in mind. Which is why the reason behind the strict rules for tier 3 exam. It was because it was expected of an Alchemists who held the rank of tier 3, to work with certain standards.

Yang Chen had refined tier 3 pills before, and although most of them were basic ones, he had the confidence to refine them with a 100 % success rate.

As for the more complex ones of that tier, Yang Chen wanted to take his chance to see if he could refine one now that his Soul Cultivation had increased.

"Hmm good, now then come towards me. Here are five pill recipes, each of which are tricker to refine in their own way. You can choose any one to refine as you find suitable. Once you have chosen the pill recipe, I will be handing you the ingredients"

Yao Dian swiped his palm and immediately five pill recipes appeared in the air. Yang Chen carefully inspected each of them...

Great Returning Pill, Spirit Essence Pill, Qi Detoxification Pill... each and every one of these pill recipes belonged to the top category of tier 3.

What’s more, all of these pills were extremely rare and useful one, something that all battle practitioners desired. For example, the Great Returning Pill had the effect of bringing one cultivation to normal if it had accidentally deviated during the breakthrough.

The Spirit Essence Pill was for increasing ones cultivation in the battle master realm while Qi Detoxifying Pill is for purifying toxins. The other pill recipes were the same, they all required rare ingredients and had a tricky refinement process.

Yang Chen scanned all five pill recipes before picking one out from among them.

"!!!" The three administrators who were carefully examining his actions, showed slight signs of surprise at this moment. It was because the pill recipe he had picked out happened to be the most trickiest and difficult to refine out of all the five.

Qi Detoxifying Pill, although it was in the same category as tier 3 pill, in terms of difficulty in refinement and rarity of ingredients, it should be classified as tier 4.

Furthermore, it was a common knowledge that among all the types of pills, the poison detoxifying pills were one of the more straining and tedious ones requiring a high level of soul cultivation and having a high failure rate.

"Young friend Yang Chen, are you sure you want to pick this pill recipe?" Worrying that he might fail, Elder Du couldn’t help but ask.

"Yes Elder, I have made up my mind, for this exam I will be refining this pill" Yang Chen replied grabbing the pill recipe. He received the ingredients which was exactly for three portions of refinement, no more and no less.

Looking at his back profile as he carried the things back to the table, the three of them couldn’t help but sigh.

"One needs to be at least in the Mid Stage Soul Condensation Realm to refine that pill. It looks like he failed the first test" Yao Dian spoke in a low tone that only the three of them could hear.
