"I won't participate. After all, I came in as your medicine boy, so I'm not qualified to participate." Song Ning shook his head.

Liang Yu was a little disappointed: "If you participate, you should be able to get a good ranking. This competition is a very generous reward for those disciples who work hard to learn pharmacology."

Upon hearing the reward, Song Ning asked casually: "What rewards are there?"

"The top fifty people can obtain a fourth-grade pill, the top ten people can obtain a fifth-grade pill recipe, and the first one can ask the sect leader to refine a sixth-grade pill!" Liang Yu said.

Sixth grade elixir?!

Song Ning suddenly remembered that in previous classics, he had seen sixth-grade elixirs, one of which was called the "Golden Pill". This "Golden Pill" is very interesting. It can grow golden elixirs in the body within a period of time. For monks whose golden elixirs were destroyed, it can serve as a substitute for the golden elixirs.

But... there are some side effects.

"Any sixth grade pill is OK?" Song Ning asked.

Liang Yu nodded and said, "That's natural. The sect leader Gu Dan Zhenren took action, and the sixth grade pill is no problem."

Seeing that Song Ning was a little moved, Liang Yu continued, "Let's do this, I'll help you sign up for it."

Song Ningluo hesitated and nodded.

Three days later, the pharmacological competition began.

The first round is auditions, with five or six thousand disciples signing up, and 500 of these five or six thousand people have to be selected.

On this day, the auditions were crowded with people, and Liang Yu and Song Ning also came here, waiting for the title to begin.

The selection platform of Shuiyun Sect is very large, even five or six thousand people are enough to accommodate, and it is not even crowded at all.

When all the disciples who participated in the audition stood on the platform, an elder flew out of the hall at the end of the platform. His voice was accompanied by spiritual power and echoed throughout the platform. He held a ball-like thing in his hand and said: "Today, it is the audition for the Shuiyun Sect Pharmacology Competition. I will talk about the rules.

The platform will enable spiritual power recognition later. Different types of medicinal materials will appear in the Ten Thousand Grass Artifact in my hand. The medicinal materials will turn into images and float in the air. What medicinal materials do you think are? As long as you think in your heart, the platform will automatically record your answers. The first to identify 500 people with 500 kinds of medicinal materials and advance."

After the elder said that, he glanced at everyone: "Do you hear it clearly?"

The disciples nodded and said yes.

The elder was very satisfied: "Then, the selection begins!"

As soon as he said this, he let out a little on the platform, and a light flashed out of the vast platform. After this light, Song Ning felt that his spiritual power seemed to be connected to the spiritual power of the platform.

Immediately afterwards, images of herbs began to appear on the Wancao ritual in the elder's hand. The image floated in mid-air and could see clearly at a glance. However, the image flashed extremely fast, and three different herbs would appear in an average of one breath.

All the disciples who participated in the audition began to answer questions nervously.

These herbs flashed by in Song Ning's eyes and had an answer.

The elder who was in charge of the selection was calm and composed, observing the platform's feedback, watching these disciples answer questions.

After a hundred breaths, he glanced at the platform's data and found that 700 people had answered 300 correctly. He was very satisfied and continued to wait.

However, in the next fifty breaths, only 200 people who answered the 450 kinds of herbs were left, which disappointed him slightly. He had put some difficulty in this herb, and so many people who answered the problem correctly.

Ten more breaths passed.

A total of 480 kinds of herbs appeared, and only fifty people left were all correct.

In the end, only twenty people answered the first five hundred herbs correctly.

These twenty people were the first to advance, and the platform exuded a force, lifting the twenty people in place and floating in the air.

Just when everyone was envious and jealous, another thirty people passed.

Then there are one hundred people, two hundred people, three hundred people...

Liang Yu finally passed at the age of 300. He looked down at the location where Song Ning was, but Song Ning had not passed yet.

He couldn't help but wonder, Song Ning had a lot of research on pharmacology during this period, but why did he not pass it yet?

However, Liang Yu thought about it again. After all, these disciples who could rank first have been practicing in the sect for more than ten years, while Song Ning only had ten months. If he only used the ability of a mortal to remember these pharmacology, it would be difficult to make ten months more than ten years.

Although Liang Yu thought Song Ning would definitely pass the audition, when there were more than 400 people, Song Ning had not completed it, and he was a little worried.

At this moment, it was not only Liang Yu who was paying attention to Song Ning, but also the leader of the Shuiyun Sect, Gu Dan Zhenren, who had been on the floor, had carefully observed Song Ning's pharmacological experiments before, and knew what level Song Ning was at. Now that Song Ning has not completed it for a long time, he was a little puzzled.

Did you see it wrong?

Just when Gu Dan Zhenren was puzzled, Song Ning passed the audition, just ranked 500th.

Liang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Song Ning. Song Ning nodded at Liang Yu.

The elder who presided over the audition glanced at the five hundred disciples and nodded: "Yes, you disciples, among the many disciples of my Shuiyun Sect, have already ranked among the top 500 in the understanding of pharmacology."

The elder said a few words of encouragement first, but then the topic changed: "I am very pleased that the top twenty disciples can answer all the top five hundred herbs correctly, but in comparison, the fifth hundredth place is far inferior. After nearly eight hundred herbs in the Ten Thousand Grass Arts, you can barely pass. Tell me how bad your understanding of pharmacology is?"

Liang Yu didn't expect the elder to point directly at Song Ning. He suddenly had a bad premonition. Ten years ago, Song Ning could use his early stage of foundation building to kill the late stage of Killing Dan. Now this elder is just the late stage of Killing Dan's Great Perfection. If Song Ning wants to kill him, isn't it a matter of every move?

But just when Liang Yu was worried, he found that Song Ning just smiled slightly and did not speak.

Seeing that Song Ning was quite respectful, the elder stopped talking about Song Ning, but said, "But you are a mortal and have no talent. It is already very good to be able to reach this level. If you work hard in the future, maybe you can become a third-grade alchemist in thirty years."

Hearing this, Liang Yu became even more embarrassed. Thirty years later, the third-grade alchemist, Song Ning, was able to refine the third-grade elixir and disguise pill before. If he used his own cultivation to study the path of alchemy, he would definitely be a famous alchemy master in Luoyu Kingdom in thirty years later.

Liang Yu secretly glanced at Song Ning and found that Song Ning didn't care. He couldn't help but be more respectful to Song Ning. A truly capable person has a broad mind, which is not something that ordinary people can compare with. Even if the other party says such words, he will not be angry or ostentatious. Such a mind is worthy of Liang Yu's life learning.
