Chapter 360: Pulling the Curtain

Almost all the participants on the arena have already ignited their dan furnaces, only Yun Tai, who is at the bottom, is still performing a pantomime of guessing games.
"Can you tell us about your injury history?" Yun Tai asked. Huo Lian looked helpless; it was common for alchemists to get injured while refining dan furnaces. Now that his strength has improved, and he has gained experience in self-protection, he couldn't even remember all the small and big injuries he had suffered back when he first started refining dan furnaces. Moreover, if he had to recount each one, would there be enough time? This hood can only block the sound and not visuals, and it can't stop the natural circulation of air. As a fire mage, Huo Lian -
It's easy to feel the increasingly active presence of the fire element on the arena.
"Nervous? Is it because you lack confidence in yourself or lack confidence in me?" Yun Tai could tell that Huo Lian was affected by their surroundings and his thoughts were scattered. Yun Tai considered it unprofessional for an alchemist to be easily influenced by their environment, especially considering Huo Lian's prestigious background. However, today Huo Lian was not a pharmacist but a patient, so Yun Tai could understand his lack of focus. With the roles reversed, their thoughts naturally diverge. Moreover, it concerned their personal interests, so no matter how others try to sugarcoat it, Yun Tai could see through it.
In the end, what is heard is considered unverified, while what is seen is considered real. Moreover, he had already been admitted to the pharmacist college in Dan City and came here to study before the cloud moss sprouted. Therefore, these long-distance rumors naturally become even more unreliable.
Huo Lian's expression suddenly became serious, shaking his head hurriedly: "Absolutely not." He wasn't foolish; Yu Lan's high regard for the current dean had been evident in the past few days. Moreover, this precious opportunity was promised by their uncle in exchange for refining five seventh-grade pill medicines. Although the medicinal ingredients were self-provided, the amount of energy required to refine a seventh-grade pill was immense. Furthermore, their uncle was only a sixth-grade pharmacist! Huo Lian couldn't understand why they would agree to such an absurd proposal. Weren't they afraid that the rare medicinal ingredients would be wasted like this?
Has it been wasted in vain? He may not understand it, but he knows one thing: he cannot disappoint his uncle and casually waste this precious opportunity.
"The first time I got hurt should be in the thirty-fifth year of Qingyu."
“那个时候你几岁？”
“五岁。那是我第一次接触炼丹……”
“不需要太过详尽，时间，哪个部位受伤，还有受伤程度，尽量按照时间顺序来。”云苔打断了火链的描述，同时拿出了一副眼镜戴上。
"Yes..."
【“这应该是眼镜版的‘水透镜’。”
因为其在初级修炼者上卓越的辅助功能，水透镜可以说是宇澜医疗改革中被最快接受，普及最广的炼金产品。
"It should be to see if this student has any old illnesses that might affect their promotion. They must be cautious." "The president of this association shouldn't overlook this, right?" Someone in the audience felt anxious. The old-fashioned pharmacists still adhere to the tradition of directly refining pills with medicinal materials. They only care about the success and quality of the pills they produce." Translated:
至于病患服用丹药之后会有什么反应，他们从不过问，更不在意。】
云苔边听边记录同时对照着‘实体’进行观察，那扶着眼镜框像是要穿透衣服看内在的架势，看得火链浑身不自在。连说话都开始有些结巴了。
["Haha... look at that student called Huo Lian, how pitiful." "
Ha ha... his ears have gone red. That girl's appearance is enough to make me laugh for a whole semester." Ye Mianhua, unlike her classmates, didn't burst into laughter and instead held her stomach while sitting on the chair."]
Although Huolian cannot hear the conversation in the audience seat, he can see it!
"Focus your attention," Yuntai said gently.
Huolian stiffened, "Yes."
"Do you see any errors or places that need to be supplemented?" Yuntai handed the medical record card to Huolian.
火链并没有接过病历卡，而是犹豫了一下说道：“其实我们都曾经晋级失败过。”
“你们？”云苔抓住关键词。
“是，我们八个人都是。”说开了，火链反而变得坦然了。她就知道这决赛不会那么简单。晋级失败可不是小事情。不要说马上再次晋级了，如果不调养好，再次晋级只会导致灾难性的后果，就算勉强晋级成功，今后的
The path of cultivation can also become extremely difficult and full of dangers.
"Are you really sure... that you have thought it through?" Yun Tai shook her head and asked. Huo Lian calmly smiled and said, "I can't speak for others, but I have truly considered it. It has been some time since my last failed promotion, and that failure did not cause a lot of damage. I feel that I have already recovered. And besides, I... "
感觉我体内的火系元素也趋于饱和，即便没有这次机会，过一段时间我也会再次尝试晋级。”“你说了不算。”说着云苔再次让火链将火系魔法在全身运行了一遍。这次她观察得更仔细了。然后开始低头写写写，时而停顿一下，思考一会儿，或是问火链一
Some questions, and then write write write...
……
"Look, Dan has made it!"
"The president is indeed the president, his speed is unmatched."
"But why does it look like a fourth-grade promotion pill?"
"What does it look like? It was originally a fourth-grade pill. Didn't you notice that the Grand Elder refined fourth-grade medicinal materials before?"
"But this is the finals of the Pharmacists' Competition. Can a fourth-grade promotion pill be used?" "What's wrong with that? Don't forget that this competition doesn't focus on the process or the quality of the pill. It only determines if the students can advance and if there are any side effects. If a fourth-grade pill can help a student advance, why bother refining an eighth-grade pill?
Isn't it wasting elixirs?!
They didn't use any soundproof shields, so with their strength, they naturally heard the discussions around them.
"What do you think?" Xi Chen placed the elixir into the jade box but didn't hand it to the young man in front of him. Instead, he asked with a smile on his face.
"Thank you, Chairman, for bestowing the medicine." The student bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle.
The student's several elders nodded in satisfaction.
"Medicinal pills are not necessarily better with higher grades. Just like martial arts and spells, the ones that suit you best are the best medicinal pills."
“是。”腰更低了。议论声也一下子轻了许多，曦尘会长可是药师公会唯一的八品药师，平时要见上一面都是千难万难，现在居然能够听到他老人家对丹药的评述，如果能从他口中
Learning one or two things is definitely a gain.
"I previously used my psychic power to perceive your physical condition. It seems that you have previously been injured in your practice, but your recovery is good. However, there is still some risk in advancing to the next level, so I have made some adjustments to the formula of this advancement pill."
"Thank you, Chairman." The student performed another ninety-degree bow, unable to hide his great joy on his face.
"Now you can adjust your state and prepare for promotion. I will protect you." Xichen handed the student a jade box containing pills.
学子第三次拜谢，双手接过玉盒之后，盘膝而坐，调息晋级。
静音罩落下，同时隔绝了络绎不绝羡慕嫉妒恨的酸言酸语。会长特别修改了配方，量身定制的晋级丹，这待遇，要早知道是这待遇他们怎么也会再争上一争。
At this time, the other contestants also gradually completed the refinement of the promotion pill and entered the voluntary promotion phase.
Similarly, the Holy Son of Light did not hand over the promotion pill he had refined to the student in front of him, but started chanting: "Oh Lord of Light, listen to my plea, bestow upon you the sacred blessing of light...."
"This is the Blessing of the Holy Light!"
"It is said that the requirement for talent to learn the Blessing of the Holy Light is very high?"
"It's not talent, it's the requirement for a high affinity with the Light element. It is said that if the crystal ball used to test affinity doesn't reach four-fifths, there is no point in thinking about practicing this spell." Translated content:
“Four-fifths? So you're saying that one must possess at least an advanced level of affinity to cultivate?”
“That's correct!”
“With advanced affinity and the ability to refine eighth-grade elixirs, it seems this Bright Son of Light…”
"Huh, what does the Cloud Moss want to do? It's one thing not to use the alchemy furnace, but why is that student starting to take off his clothes?"
"Ah, why did they close the curtain? What exactly do they want to do?"
"This is a competition! How can you not allow people to watch it?"
"Exactly! What if they cheat? Who can guarantee that they won't cheat?"
"Yes, we can't hide anything! Who knows what forbidden things they might do, tarnishing the sanctity of the Medicine Master Competition? This is not acceptable!"
This is definitely not because they are curious! Absolutely not! Unfortunately, they forgot that Yun Tai had already used a soundproof cover, so they cannot hear their protests at all!
