Chapter 50: Apprentice Pill Master

Guan Shangli looked serious and stared at the other six people, saying, "Hand over your results! Don't tell me none of you succeeded!"

The six people who originally looked at Mi Xiaojing with hatred suddenly turned pale, and none of them had succeeded.

"Master, I...I didn't..."

"Uncle Master, neither did I...I almost succeeded. When I was forming the foundation, I didn't do it well and failed. Uncle Master, please give me another chance..."

"Guan Uncle Master, I was just one step away from forming the pill. Just a little bit more...Guan Uncle Master, please give me another chance. I will definitely succeed!"

"Guan disciple, he just got lucky. In real alchemy, he may not be better than me! I want to compete with him again."

A disciple raised his head with a look of dissatisfaction.

Suddenly, Chen Shouyi spoke up.

"You're better than him? Alright, show us your results from this alchemy!"

The disciple was suddenly at a loss for words and stuttered, "I...I don't have it...I want...to compete again..."

"Compete again? I gave you three chances and you didn't catch any of them. You think you can change the assessment results at will? Get out of here. Grass-Benevolence Hall doesn't need someone like you who thinks too highly of themselves. Go to the menial labor hall!"

The disciple's face turned pale. He trembled for a long time, but Chen Shouyi was a Foundation Establishment Ancestor, whose status was much higher than his. Even if Guan Shangli, a disciple in the building foundation period, wanted to scold him, he had to listen obediently.

Guan Shangli said, "Alright, go report to the menial labor hall and hand over your work here."

The person left dejectedly, not daring to argue. When Chen Shouyi scolded him, he suddenly realized that Mi Xiaojing was Chen Shouyi's pill boy! He was questioning him. Wasn't that asking for death?

Hong Qing hesitated for a moment, tightly closed his mouth, and said nothing. Watching the disciple being driven out of Grass-Benevolence Hall, he knew it wasn't worth opposing Chen Shouyi's decision for this kind of thing.

Chen Shouyi said, "Anyone else? Any questions?"

The other five disciples cursed in their hearts, but none of them dared to question again.

"Master, our level is not enough. We have no objections..."

"Yes, yes, no objections, no objections, hehe."

Several disciples spoke up.

Mi Xiaojing felt amused in his heart, but he still stood calmly on the side, silently observing. He knew that he had already obtained a spot in alchemy.

Chen Shouyi's lips moved slightly, and then Mi Xiaojing saw Hong Qing and Guan Shangli's lips moving as well, but no sound came out. He knew that these were the high-level members of Grass-Benevolence Hall communicating with each other. This kind of ability could only be learned after building the foundation.

After a moment, Guan Shangli nodded continuously.

Chen Shouyi smiled, "You can announce it. You're the disciple in charge."

Guan Shangli nodded and said, "Alright, you, and you, and you...you three passed. The other two still need to continue studying."

Mi Xiaojing almost laughed out loud. The two who were eliminated were the ones who questioned at the beginning. All three of the silent disciples passed.Two disciples who were eliminated had pale faces. They suddenly understood why they were eliminated. However, as low-level disciples, even if they were wronged, they must accept it. Otherwise, they would be like the first disciple who was expelled from the Grass-Benevolence Hall, not to mention alchemy, but directly driven out. It is important to know that the Grass-Benevolence Hall is a good position in the Heart Sect.

Four people passed the test, and the Sect Leader could be informed for the time being.

Three disciples had an incredulous expression on their faces. The two disciples at the door were full of regret and sorrow. One of them couldn't help but slap himself. Such a good opportunity flew away, which was simply too frustrating.

Once passed, they would have the qualification to refine. The materials for low-level pills could be used at any time. The most important thing was that once they succeeded in refining, they could keep some pills.

Guan Shangli said indifferently, "Everyone understands the rules here. I will repeat them again."

"From now on, you can refine pills and have your own pill room. Well, it's not exclusive, but as long as you refine pills, you can use the pill room without queuing for reservation."

"In addition, the materials for refining pills can be obtained. Remember, the success rate of refining pills is directly related to obtaining materials."

"For example, for the Qi-Refining Pill, ten materials can be exchanged for one Qi-Refining Pill. That is to say, you need at least one Qi-Refining Pill for ten materials."

"This is not considered completing the task. This is the cost of deducting materials. In addition, ten materials must be handed over to the Grass-Benevolence Hall, two Qi-Refining Pills to me, and one to the pill room as a deduction."

Except for Mi Xiaojing, the other three listened with changing expressions and felt uneasy. According to this calculation, they needed to refine at least seven pills for ten materials to make a profit. If this requirement could not be met, they would have to find their own materials to refine pills until they met the requirements of the task.

Mi Xiaojing listened carefully. With his ability, completing this task would be easy and enjoyable. However, for novice alchemy disciples, this task was very demanding, and there was almost no hope of completing it at first.

The materials for the Qi-Refining Pill were all low-level herbs, and they were cultivated by the Grass-Benevolence Hall themselves, so the cost was very low. But if they purchased them from the Heart Sect's market, the price was not low. Many disciples who cultivated herbs would complete the sect's tasks and the remaining herbs would be their welfare. They could simply process them and sell them in the market.

Guan Shangli said a lot, and finally said, "Go and exchange for your identity badge and the clothes specially made for alchemy disciples. In addition, alchemy disciples will receive five low-grade spirit stones per month. Work hard, and I have high hopes for you."

Chen Shouyi observed carefully and found that three of the four disciples had a bitter expression on their faces. The only one who looked calm was Mi Xiaojing. It was understandable that with three materials and two Qi-Refining Pills, they could make exactly six Qi-Refining Pills with ten materials, which was just enough to break even. No wonder this child treated it calmly.

If Chen Shouyi knew that Mi Xiaojing could refine high-grade pills, he would have controlled him long ago. But now, extortion was still possible.

"Mi Xiaojing, for every ten sets of materials, besides the task of six pills, you also need to give me two pills,"

Xiaojing was about to agree when Wang Weijun reminded him in his mind, "Don't rush to agree, he's tricking you!"
