Pill Refinement Competition

It’s almost upon us! The pill refinement competition that occurs once every ten years! As long as you’re under thirty years of age, and your pill refinement rank has reached the Flame Mastery Stage, you can sign up to compete in this competition!

The prize pool for this competition is extremely attractive! The top one hundred refiners will win the chance to enter the Pill Tower to cultivate. The top five refiners will each receive a sixth-rank immortal pill coupon. In addition to this, the winner will also receive a treasure from the Pill Tower—the intermediate-rank immortal tool, Nine Spirit Cauldron

The judges for this competition will consist of ten elders from Pill Tower.

Meimei is responsible for presiding over the competition.

## First Round

**Test One**: Refine a spirit pill within two hours, then hand the pill over to the Pill Tower. Based on the rank and quality of the pills, the elders will select the top one hundred competitors. The remaining competitors will all be eliminated.

**Result**: Successfully refined pills, one hundred and twenty-five. Unsuccessful pills, thirty-five. This time, only ninety competitors have won the right to become disciples of the Pill Tower. The rank of Xu Xiaolan’s pill is the highest. It’s a fifth-rank pinnacle stage spirit pill! After that, we have Rika, Black Sword Lord, Ban Yue, Julia… An Lin, and Gray.

## Second Round

**Test Two**: "The second event will decide the top five most outstanding competitors. Each of them will receive a sixth-rank immortal pill coupon. Next, I’ll announce the event rules.

In a while, I’ll hand each of you a recipe for a fourth-rank spirit pill—the Spirit Rejuvenation Pill. Your task is to refine this Spirit Rejuvenation Pill. The elders will rank you according to the quality of your refined pills.

The Pill Tower will provide you with the ingredients… free of charge!"
**Result**: After An Lin produced a fourth-rank spirit pill that transcended his rank and became a three-rank spirit pill, he came in first in that round, followed by Xu Xiaolan who produced a high-level fourth-rank spirit pill; Fanny who was the daughter of Pill Sage who achieved a result similar to Xu Xiaolan, and finally Ban Yue in fourth place and Julia in fifth place.

## Final Round

**Test Final**: “The final competition is quite simple. Whoever refines the highest grade pill wins, and among pills of the same grade, the higher quality one wins!

“Furthermore, everyone has to use their own materials!”

"The time limit for the final competition is four hours. Within this time period, you may start again if you fail in your pill refinement."

**Result**: In the final round of the Pill Refinement Competition Ban Yue and Julia gave up shortly after failing in their respective refinements and after seeing that the other three participants were refining the first-rank spirit pill. Fanny had successfully refined a first-rank spirit pill, however it was just an ordinary first-grade spirit pill. Xu Xiaolan also managed to refine successfully, it was a spirit pill at the pinnacle of the first-grade. Finally, An Lin was able to successfully refine a first-rank spirit pill at the height of the first series, however it was clearly more extraordinary than that of Xu Xioalan, the final judgment delivered by the Pill Sage, who declared An Lin like the great champion.

## Trivia

* All participants must prepare your own pill refinement ingredients. In addition it exchanging pill refinement ingredients within the competition grounds is forbidden.
* In the second round of the Pill Refinement Competition when An Lin was feeling desperate the White Vermilion Bird in his sea of vital energy detected and asked him if he wanted her to teach him alchemy, as a result after accepting, An Lin produced a fourth-rank spirit pill that transcended its rank and became a three-rank spirit pill.
* In the final round of the Pill Refinement Competition An Lin with the help of the White Vermilion Bird decided to refine a first-rank spirit pill, just like Xu Xiaolan and Fanny, however he used it to refine seven types of flames at the same time, his sacred flame and six other divine flames, in addition he took time to comfort Fanny while refining his pill.
* After being declared champion and received the prize, An Lin gave the Nine Spirit Cauldron directly as a gift to Xu Xiaolan, leaving everyone shocked and ashamed, as they realized that it didn't matter who would win between An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, in the end the prize would be Xu Xiaolan.
