Xiao Yan's Eagle's Wings were exaggeratedly large, with a wingspan approaching four meters. The blood-red Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame emitted a faint beastly roar, a sound that made the hearts of those who heard it tremble.
Looking closer, one could even see lifelike beast spirit carvings on the fire wings.
The massive fire wings directly blocked Yao Ye and Ya Fei behind him, and even Nalan Yanran, who was not far away, was obscured. The audience in the stands was also drawn to the enormous fire wings.
At this moment, even Guild Master Fa Ma, Dou Huangs Hai Bo Dong and Jia Xing Tian on the VIP seats were not as attractive as Xiao Yan.
"Holy crap! Dou Qi Wings!! Is he a Fighting King?!"
"An eighteen-year-old Fighting King?! How is that possible?!"
Whether it was the audience in the stands or the countless Alchemists in the middle of the square, everyone was discussing it.
The first to notice was naturally Guild Master Fa Ma.
"No, this isn't Dou Qi Wings, this is a very rare flying Dou Technique!"
With a bang, Xiao Yan suddenly flapped his wings and flew straight into the sky. Ya Fei hurriedly covered her skirt with a shy expression, preventing it from being blown up by the strong wind.
A streak of blood-red fire pierced the sky like a meteor, turning into a blaze of fire before slowly landing in the very center of the Unique Plaza, in the first-place spot of the inner test.
"He's the most childish one." Nalan Yanran naturally knew that Xiao Yan possessed a flying Dou Technique, and she also knew that Xiao Yan deliberately expanded his Eagle's Wings to the maximum.
Xiao Yan was the most childish one! Without a doubt, Xiao Yan's massive fire wings completely ignited the entire venue, with cheers, screams, and applause erupting like a tidal wave.
"So handsome!"
"Roar!! So cool!"
Just the fire wings alone were enough to captivate countless women in the audience, all of whom were mesmerized by the only young man not wearing an Alchemist robe.
"He really does have some skills, no wonder Great-Grandfather thinks so highly of him." Looking at the young man in the arena calmly accepting the countless cheers, Yao Ye murmured softly.
Even Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes turned to the most dazzling star in the arena, a rare hint of softness appearing on her pretty face, no one knew what she was thinking at this moment.
Mu Chen, the Mu Family's Fighting King, narrowed his eyes, staring at Xiao Yan in the arena. After a long while, he turned his head to Mu Zhan, who was behind him with his right hand bandaged, and said, "Is he the one who broke your palm last night?"
"Yes!" Mu Zhan said viciously, what he found most difficult to accept was being beaten like that in front of Ya Fei! Of course, being used to having his own way, he wouldn't think about the fact that he had made the first move.
Mu Chen pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Don't provoke him."
"But!"
Mu Chen glanced at Mu Zhan and said coldly, "You can't win against him. If you like Ya Fei, you can pursue her through legitimate means, but I suggest you give up. The Mittel Family won't choose you either."
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Mu Chen's face darken, and Mu Zhan shrank his head, helplessly agreeing.
Xiao Yan naturally didn't have time to think about what the VIP seats were discussing. At this moment, he had already picked up the Second Grade Pill Recipe on the table.
This wasn't a formal Pill Recipe made with Soul power, but a hand-copied one. This meant that it would be difficult to be precise during Pill Refining, and it would require the Alchemist's personal ability to judge.
"This round will probably eliminate most people below the Third Grade." Although it was the lowest-level Bone Growing Pill of the Second Grade, without a precise Pill Recipe, ordinary Second Grade Alchemists wouldn't be able to refine it, and even Third Grade Alchemists would find it difficult.
And there were two portions of medicinal herbs on the table, which meant there was only one chance to try.
"I believe you have all understood something. The first round of the assessment requires you to refine a finished Pill based on this incomplete Pill Recipe. There are two portions of medicinal herbs in total. If the medicinal herbs are used up or the time is up and the Pill has not been successfully refined, you will be eliminated."
"Do you understand?"
Fa Ma's voice was amplified by Dou Qi and spread throughout the entire square.
"Yes!"
Below the square, a muffled thunderous roar rose up.
"In that case, the first round of the assessment officially begins!"
As soon as he finished speaking, thousands of Alchemists took out their Pill Refining furnaces, and the sound of them landing rang out.
Xiao Yan turned his head to look in the direction of Yue Er and Liu Ling. The Pill Refining furnaces they were using were both high-quality, and they were both Fifth Grade Pill Refining furnaces.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Yan didn't use Black Demon, but instead took out the Fifth Grade Pill Refining furnace he had taken from the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King. He wouldn't take advantage of the Pill Refining furnace.
With a whoosh, a ball of Black Flame appeared in Xiao Yan's palm. He gently threw it into the Pill Refining furnace and injected Dou Qi. Soon, the Void Swallowing Flame occupied the entire Pill Refining furnace.
"Huh? That flame isn't as strong as a Strange Flame. It seems like Xiao Yan isn't using a Strange Flame?" In the VIP seats, Vice President Chemir frowned and asked in confusion.
Xiao Yan possessing a Strange Flame was practically common knowledge, and when Xiao Yan used Eagle's Wings just now, many powerhouses had already sensed the terror of that blood-red flame.
Fa Ma, the guild leader, looked at Xiao Yan's Pill Refining furnace and said faintly, "That Black Flame gives me a strange feeling. Although it's not as powerful as that red Strange Flame, it's definitely not as simple as ordinary flames. That kid probably doesn't want to take advantage of the Strange Flame."
Fa Ma and the others weren't wrong; the Sub-Flame and the main body did have huge differences.
Looking at the Black Flame burning fiercely in the Pill Refining furnace, Xiao Yan didn't bother to think too much. With a wave of his hand, he threw all the medicinal herbs into the Pill Refining furnace at once.
"How could he throw all the medicinal herbs in at once!"
"The extraction temperatures for medicinal herbs are different. Wouldn't throwing them all in at once ruin everything!"
The one who received the most attention was naturally Xiao Yan. Seeing Xiao Yan throw all the medicinal herbs in at once, the audience seats immediately caused an uproar.
Even some of the Alchemist Guild's elders in the VIP seats were confused, not knowing why Xiao Yan did this.
Fa Ma nodded secretly and explained, "Generally, Pill Refining requires using the Pill Refining furnace to extract medicinal herbs. Because the temperatures required for the medicinal herbs are different, each medicinal herb is extracted separately, then processed before being fused into a Pill."
"This can lead to the medicinal properties being contaminated by the air. Although this contamination is only one in ten million, it will reduce the quality of the Pill and speed up the Pill formation."
"But Xiao Yan's method can completely isolate the medicinal properties, preventing them from being contaminated. However, this method requires extremely precise temperature control and extraction, which cannot be achieved without strong fire control and Soul power. He is very confident in his fire control and Soul power."
Hearing Guild Leader Fa Ma's explanation, the elders suddenly woke up.
Yao Ye murmured from the side, "His fire control and Soul power have already reached Fourth Grade."
Without a precise Pill Recipe, even extracting medicinal herbs requires caution, fearing that the temperature will be too high. This Second Grade Pill Recipe only provides the medicinal herb formula, without any other details.
But Xiao Yan's Pill Refining isn't something he just started doing. His Pill Refining skills come from countless accumulations and failures.
Soul power instantly gathered, and all the medicinal properties were instantly fused according to proportion and order. Years of Pill Refining experience allowed Xiao Yan to see at a glance how these drugs could be combined to produce the desired effect.
Before long, with three clangs, three Pills were collected by Xiao Yan into a Pill bottle.
"Three Pills in one furnace!!"
"Really? Is he really refining the Bone Growing Pill for the first time? He can extract the medicinal properties of the herbs so perfectly even with a hand-copied Pill Recipe!"
