"Now please all participants take out the testing device under the bluestone platform and place the pill you have refined into the instrument," Zhan Yituo's voice resonated in the ears of each participant.
Because such a bluestone platform was originally made according to the standards of the academy's alchemy platform, Yun Tai easily found the folded detector beneath the bluestone platform.
The research results show that the optimal result for refining a first-grade elixir is twenty elixirs in one furnace. Although producing twenty elixirs in one furnace does not guarantee that all twenty elixirs have the highest quality, having more or fewer elixirs indicates that the quality of the elixirs in this furnace did not reach the optimal level.
至于丹药质量的品级，如果是普通的药店里，通常只能看到三个品级的丹药，上品、中品和下品。通常只有在药师公会内部才会又更细的划分，而且等级越高的丹药，质量的品级划分就越细致。
"This detector has five levels of detection criteria: red, orange, yellow, blue, and green. When you put the advancement pill in and the result is excellent, the device will display green, followed by blue for the next tier, and so on. The leaderboard will automatically display the top twenty participants with the best detection results. Now, please start." Zhang Yi Tu did not step back, but remained at the front desk, looking up at the leaderboard in mid-air with everyone else. Waiting for the twenty names to appear.
虽然被淘汰了近三分之二的选手，但剩下的三分之一也有近千人之多。因此无论是选手还是观众都清楚，如此庞大的基数，一炉二十粒全部优秀的人数几乎可以肯定的超过二十位。所以二十粒丹药只要有一粒呈现蓝色，这名选手基本上可以确认没有机会进入下一轮比赛了。没一会儿整个广场便笼罩在五色斑斓的‘霓虹灯’下，同时映衬出了参赛者的悲喜……
Many nervous eyes were fixed on the stone platform where Yun Tai was.
"Huh, why is this pill not showing any reaction? Is the detector broken?" Yun Zhao Mei asked in confusion.
"What's not showing?" Yun Hao and Shui Xue Li's nerves were on edge at this moment.
As soon as Yun Zhaomei heard the words, Shui Xueli was so startled that she almost jumped up. "What? No reaction? Why no reaction? Are you blind? That is not green!"
Yun Zhaomei was equally shocked by Shui Xueli's excited response and trembled, "I, I didn't say Yun Tai. That was a fifth-grade pharmacist in front of Yun Tai..." "At this time, you still have the mood to look around? Do you have any sense of siblinghood left?" Shui Xueli reproached firmly while comforting her own half-lost soul.
Yun Zhaomei was speechless for a moment. Where was he not concerned? That pharmacist was right in front of Yun Tai, and he happened to notice it as well. It wasn't just because the pharmacist was a fifth-rank pharmacist, but also because he had managed to save the almost deemed failed pill after the explosion furnace with his superb fire control technique and formidable mental power. Otherwise, Yun Zhaomei wouldn't have paid much attention. Yet, for such a trivial matter, he ended up arguing with a girl until his face turned red. As a dignified man, Yun Zhaomei felt that he couldn't afford to lose to that person.
“是费里奇斯。”澜沧郗的心也跟着检测仪器上的绿灯由亮（上）到暗（下）。好歹是自己外祖那边，不出意外将来也会成为自己的助力，这个时候澜沧郗自然希望费里奇斯在比赛上能够有突出的表现，至少不要第一轮就被淘汰出局。否则牵扯出去，他的面子上也不好看。
很显然站在前台一览众山小的詹毅涂也看到了这一特殊情况。他挥挥手，示意工作人员将费里奇斯炼制的丹药全部拿到前台。
As soon as Zhan Yi wiped the pill, he saw something unusual. His eyes immediately lit up and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Good!"
Hmm? Now even more curious people emerged. Even the participants around couldn't help but stop what they were doing and stretched their necks to get a closer look.
云苔同学同样不能免俗地踮起了脚，伸长了脖子，可惜因为身高的问题，她的视线依然被前面的人挡得结结实实。歪头再看，左前方药师不知为何同时向□□斜，刚巧将她的视线挡住。云苔不死心，寻求右路突破，可惜右前方那位参赛者似乎同样心有灵犀，身体一斜，再次将云苔的视线挡住。摔！不看就不看么，看不了‘实况’她退而求其次，听‘收音’总没什么了吧。反正那么远的距离，她也辨别不出丹药的好坏。
Perhaps it is the strong resentment felt by audience members towards Student Yuntai, as well as their thirst for knowledge. In response, the enormous magic screen in the audience area, which was originally broadcasting the situation of various regions, shrunk the display area of other regions and focused on a large central area to provide a close-up broadcast of this unexpected incident.
"It is a second-grade pill." One of the six-grade pharmacists said, holding one of the sixteen pills.
"That's right, although it belongs to the lower quality range, it does meet the second-grade standard." Another six-grade pharmacist confirmed.
立刻所有人看向费里奇斯的眼光都不一样了。用炼制一品丹药的药材炼制出了二品的丹药，虽然是质量最差的二品丹药，但他至少炼丹成功了。而且如果没有陷阱，只是正常的炼丹，谁知道费里奇斯能够炼制出哪个档次的二品丹？再展望一下未来，等他的炼丹技术再更进一步之后，他是否能够用炼制二品的药材炼制出三品的丹药？想想吧，在珍贵药材日益稀缺的现在，这样的人才绝对是不容放过的！
For a moment, many people in the VIP box immediately instructed their subordinates to investigate Feilixis. Although they heard the surname "Fei", they had a general idea in their hearts. But just in case, what if he is not a member of that family? What if he is not loyal to the family?
看着贵宾席上交头接耳的众位药师，费里奇斯却没有一点乐观的想法。今天的考题是炼制一品晋级丹。他炸了丹炉不说，拼命挽救的结果是生成了一炉质量极差的二品丹。与比赛的要求不符。就算监考的众位药师通融，他炼制出来的丹药数量与其他参赛者相比也完全处于劣势。抬头看了看半空中早已超额需要附加赛再次选拔的榜单，费里奇斯满嘴苦涩。他自信满满地前来参赛，认定就算拿不到名额，进入最后的20人选拔赛肯定是妥妥的，却没想到在第一轮就被淘汰出局。
"President Zhan, it is truly rare and admirable that Pharmacist Fei Lijis can use the ingredients for making a top-grade pill to refine a second-grade pill..." Lan Cangqiong spoke first, using the advantage of distance to gain favor."
Zhan Yi immediately rejected Lian Lancong's proposal without even hearing him out. "Seventh Prince, there's no need to say anything more. The rules of the competition are set and cannot be compromised. If everyone tries to take shortcuts, then in the future, we might as well all use the same medicinal materials to refine the pills and see who can produce higher-grade and better quality pills to win first place. Why should we bother coming up with exam questions then? Wouldn't everything become chaotic? Seventh Prince, surely you don't think that only Pharmacist Fei Liqi can use lower-grade medicinal materials to refine pills of higher levels, right?"
"Of course not," Lan Cangqiong quickly denied, while giving a helpless look to Feilixis in the arena.
The tiny flicker of hope that had just ignited in Feilixis' eyes extinguished.
看到结论定下，没得戏看了，云苔同学注意力再次回到自己台前。
绿色、绿色，还是绿色。当二十粒晋级丹都显示出绿色之后，不少人长长地吐了一口气。看来云苔同学虽然嘴上坚持自己是一名医师，但炼丹的基本功还是没有落下。
"Damn it," cursed the Tenth Prince under his breath.
“急什么。不过是第一轮。”七皇子低声说道。只不过是侥幸通过了第一轮。一品晋级丹，历届大赛什么时候出过这么简单的题目了，明摆着是药师公会想要给陛下一个面子。
The first round of elimination has ended, and after communication between the 25 arenas, the results have been announced. A total of 15,872 participants have passed the first assessment. In other words, these 15,872 participants have all successfully refined twenty excellent promotion pills, and are tied for first place!
This is a crazy number!
看到这个数字詹毅涂激动得面红耳赤，他向助手再三确认：“数字准确吗？核实过了吗？”
“会长，已经核实过三遍了。”助手同样也是满脸红光。往届第一轮淘汰赛之后，剩下的参赛者最多一次不过千人，可今年……这是要疯了的节奏啊！
"How are Nan Teng and Ibo doing?" Zhanyi Tu asked.
"There isn't much difference from previous years. There are no more than 1,500 contestants in the second round," the assistant answered triumphantly. This is a complete numerical domination.
“难道真的是医疗改革的效果？”詹毅涂低声自语。否则这样的情况实在是说不通啊。
十皇子听到这话，脸色整个儿阴沉了下来。
"President, what should we do next?" the assistant asked.
In previous years, the second round usually involved selecting 500 out of 100 candidates, then narrowing it down to 50, and finally determining the top 25 contestants. But now there are 15,872 participants! It's clearly impossible to gather all the contestants for a single competition, so we will need to conduct an additional round of elimination to select 500 contestants who will advance. Please let me know if there is anything else you would like me to assist with.
“休息三天，然后进行第二轮淘汰赛。”詹毅涂不在意地挥挥手，他先要把这个好消息通报给会长知道。
而通过第一轮的云苔同学并没有跟大部队一起去庆祝，而是去火邈老师那里汇报赛后感想，听取分析。
“费里奇斯可惜了。”分析结束之后，火邈突然冒出一句。
“没什么可惜的吧，反正费里药师参加比赛原本就是为了检测自己的炼丹能力，他被淘汰不就直接说明了问题。”淘汰赛原本就是如此残酷，而且那么多低级药师通过了淘汰赛，他一个五品药师被淘汰，这本身就说明了问题。而且云苔在今天之前根本就没听说过费里奇斯这个人，想要偏心也不可能。
“如果他在我们去丹城前通过六品药师的考核，他还是有机会参加丹城的比赛的。”火邈看向云苔。
“老师，投机取巧是不对的。”云苔一脸正气盎然。
