I Can Extract Everything

Liang Yang stepped forward without further ado, carrying a jade bottle in his hand.

Meanwhile, the other examinees appeared somewhat curious as they waited for the unveiling of the results.

Grand Master Du smiled and asked, "What pill did you concoct, and how many attempts did you use to make the pill?"

"Reply to Grand Master Du, the pill I concoct was a Qi Strengthening Pill, and I successfully make it in one attempt."

Even though Liang Yang's face didn't change much, one could feel pride from his tone.

His words left the two examinees in the corner of the line stunned instantly. They were somewhat discouraged, comparing themselves to Liang Yang.

Grand Master Du nodded as he secretly praised Liang Yang. He said, "Alright. Please put your pill in that tube!"

Liang Yang moved calmly to the side of the Purity Measuring Tube under the focus of everyone. After which, he opened the jade bottle he was holding in his hand and carefully poured one of the pills into the tube.

The pill did not fall to the surface but instead floated in the air.

His gaze shifted to the screen. There, the glow flickered for some time before a '60%' slowly appeared...

"60% purity. Congratulations... you have passed." Grand Master Du exhaled gently as he smiled and said.

Liang Yang curved his lips and moved his lofty body to one side. Off and on, his gaze would drift toward the third in line, Yun Qiu.

He had heard of Yun Qiu's name even before the Alchemist Apprentice Exam began. After all, he was quite famous in this city.

Aside from his lofty status as the Young Master of Yun Clan, Yun Qiu is also known as an Unrivaled Genius Alchemist among his peers.

Liang Yang had considered this person as a rival and vowed to snatch the throne of 'Unrivaled Genius Alchemist' from Yun Qiu's hands.

However, it seemed that he had overestimated this person. From this point, he could tell that Yun Qiu was not worthy of being his rival.

He is utterly disappointing!

"Alright. Next, Qin Yi!"

When Qin Yi heard his name being called, he immediately walked up to the platform and stopped at the side of the Purity Measuring Tube.

Before putting the pill into the tube, Grand Master Du asked him the same thing.

Qin Yi replied, "The pill I concoct is the Qi Strengthening Pill, and I luckily managed to do it in one attempt."

After he reported these words, he scratched his head and laughed sheepishly, "Iya~, my cauldron almost exploded once. Luckily I somehow managed to control it in time ha ha ha..."

Hearing this, everyone in the room was immediately stunned. Even Grand Master Du and Yun Changhai could not help, but exchange astonished gazes.

Obviously, nobody expected this.

Unlike Liang Yang, he had perfect scores in both of his previous exams, so it was only natural that people would expect him to do well in this pill-making exam.

However, Qin Yi, his scores in the two previous exams were pretty average. Moreover, he was too young, not even twenty years old.

Considering these factors, it was only natural that the two Grand Masters would not expect Qin Yi to perform as well as Liang Yang and the others.

Although Qin Yi's final result is still unknown, it is already impressive that he achieved this feat.

They didn't think this boy was lying as they saw with their own eyes that he came out seconds after Liang Yang came out. Moreover, the pill this boy was holding also looked as fresh as a pill that had just been made.

Grand Master Du softly sighed. His gaze shifted to the screen. There, the glow flickered for some time before a '60%' slowly appeared...

"60%..." Grand Master Du astonishingly announced.

Not only was Grand Master Du shocked, Yun Changhai and the other four examinees were also surprised to see the flickering number on the screen.

A thought suddenly popped into the cave Grand Master's head; this guy is a genius?

Qin Yi was able to achieve this stage at such an age. If this isn't called genius, then what is?

A coincidence?

There was no way such a coincidence existed.

'Old Yao is truly in luck.' The two Grand Masters thought the same thing.

Meanwhile, the astonished Liang Yang suddenly come to his sense. He was still unable to believe what he had just witnessed.

How is that possible?

He was able to reach this stage, all thanks to the profound knowledge recorded in the Medicine Saint Journal.

Even though the quality of the alchemy ingredients and cauldrons the association prepared was deficient, the Medicine Saint Journal could tell him various tricks to overcome them.

Even though the results of the pills he made weren't as good as the Medicine Saint Journal said, it should be easy for him to surpass all the examinees here.

But here and now, there's someone who was unexpectedly able to achieve what he had achieved without the guidance of the Medicine Saint Journal.

Could this be the so-called talent difference?

Thinking about this, Liang Yang couldn't help but secretly cast an envious look towards Qi Yi.

What if this guy had the Medicine Saint Journal?

Doesn't that mean he can perform better than he is now?

In fact, they are just overthinking. 

Qin Yi is indeed talented in alchemy. However, Qin Yi could do well in this round because of his perfect mastery of fire.

Even though Yun Qiu and Liang Yang had better fire control techniques than Qin Yi's, their mastery probably hadn't even reached Small Accomplishment.

If they did, Liang Yang might perform better than this, and Yun Qiu might be able to clear this exam faster than Liang Yang.

Grand Master Du smiled as he said, "Not bad, congratulations, you passed!"

Qin Yi smiled and bowed before he backed away and joined Liang Yang.

"You are not bad." Liang Yang said quietly after Qin Yi stood beside him.

Qin Yi smiled politely without saying anything.

He didn't feel too complacent about his exam results. After all, that 60% was far from the level of pill purity, he could generally make.

But yeah, it can't be helped since the cauldron and alchemy ingredients he uses are terrible.

But he could definitely do better if he had better fire control techniques.

After the Cultivation Points accumulated, Qin Yi decided to prioritize using his Cultivation Points to master better fire control techniques.

"Next, Yun Qiu!"

Unlike the two examinees before him, Yun Qiu blew up his cauldron once. In the end, he had to redo his pill concoction again.

Luckily he can adapt quickly and learn from his mistakes.

He succeeded in making pills on the second attempt.

The pill he concocted was the Body Strengthening Pill. It was the hardest pill of the three pill options this exam had prepared.

This pill is difficult to make because some of the ingredients to make this pill are very troublesome to refine.

Qin Yi had already started practicing making this pill for a month. However, he had only managed to make it a few times. Mostly he was wasting alchemy ingredients.

And yet, Yun Qiu could handle it well even though he made a mistake once.

Grand Master Du widened his eyes and announced, "Another 60%. Congratulations, you have passed."

What a stroke of luck. 

The association was able to get three alchemist geniuses in one day.

These three people certainly would have bright futures ahead of them and might become pillars of the association! Though Grand Master Du.

"Not bad. Although you failed once, you managed to adapt quickly and see through your weaknesses. This way, you can officially become a true Alchemist." Yun Changhai, who witnessed this, was also immensely gratified.

He was quite proud of Yun Qiu's alchemy skills as his clan elder and senior association. Therefore, he is not stingy of praise.

"Thank you, Grand Masters!"

On the surface, Yun Qiu appeared humble. However, his heart was proud and pleased.

Not only did he get the praise of his elder, but he also managed to sweep his shame away with this result.

When Yun Qiu joined the side row, Qin Yi immediately congratulated him.

"Congratulations on your pass, Young Master Yun."

Hearing this, Yun Qiu contemptuously said: "Passing this exam is a trivial matter for me."

"Even though you failed once..." Liang Yang rolled his eyes as he muttered softly.

"What did you say?!" Yun Qiu angrily glared at Liang Yang.

Liang Yang did not say any further. It was unwise to offend a background character like Yun Qiu.

Just like that, the exams are still ongoing.

After Yun Qiu, the next name to be called was He Ya, the only female examinee in this room.

The pill she made was a Detoxification Pill, and she could only make it after three tries.

"55%, congratulations, you passed!" Grand Master Du announced after seeing the flickering number on the screen.

He Ya happily joined the other three examinees.

Finally, the last examinee came forward.

"50%, you failed!"
