The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 538 Answer Sheet for 10 Questions
Chapter 538: Chapter 538 Answer Sheet for 10 Questions
The eighth question’s judge did not rush to respond, but instead carefully reviewed the answer sheet from beginning to end.
No mistakes!
It was undoubtedly a perfect answer sheet.
The judge raised his head, looked at the other judges, and nodded firmly, "Pill Master number sixty-six’s answer to the eighth question is also a perfect score!"
Although the audience had prepared themselves after seeing the demeanor of the eighth question’s judge, when they heard this, the judges still couldn’t help but tremble inside.
To have scored full marks on the first eight questions, making eighty out of eighty points. Even if the last two questions were left blank by number sixty-six, relying on the eighty points secured earlier would be enough to leave most Pill Masters far behind. Eighty points would definitely rank within the top fifty of all Pill Masters, perhaps even in the top thirty. Advancing to the third round would definitely not be a problem.
"City Lord, it seems you were right, this young man named Jing Yan performed well in the second round too!" Chang Huan narrowed his eyes and said to Hu Donghe.
The conversation among the judges was heard clearly by Hu Donghe and Chang Huan. Thus, both of them knew that Pill Master number sixty-six, Jing Yan, had already scored eighty points.
"Yes! This second round, if nothing goes wrong, Alchemist Jing Yan should be able to score over ninety points, and he has a very good chance of taking the first place in the second round." Hu Donghe nodded.
"Hmm, I wonder how many points he can get for the ninth question. As for the tenth, I’m afraid it could be at most four points!" Chang Huan said.
"The ninth question is also very difficult, and on the entire Heavenly Origin Continent, there aren’t many Pill Masters who can refine that Elixir." Hu Donghe chuckled, "As for the tenth question, many Pill Masters might guess the elixir as the Creation Pill, but writing out the required materials to refine the Creation Pill is indeed impossible. Across the entire Heavenly Origin Continent, the number who can refine Creation Pills wouldn’t exceed three, besides me."
The Creation Pill was a very special elixir, though only considered a Seventh-level Elixir; due to certain special reasons, the Pill Formula for it was lost, making many believe for a long time that the Creation Pill could no longer be refined and would become a part of history. However, several hundred years ago, an Ancient Relic was discovered on the continent, and within this relic, the Pill Formula for the Creation Pill resurfaced.
Nonetheless, the number of Pill Masters who mastered the Pill Formula for the Creation Pill was still very limited, including Hu Donghe.
"Heaven... ten points!" Suddenly, the judge of the ninth question exclaimed.
"Ten points?"
"Does this mean that number sixty-six scored ten points on the ninth question too?"
Although the ninth question’s judge hadn’t yet said who scored the ten points, upon hearing this, the first thought that came to everyone’s mind was Pill Master number sixty-six.
"Yes, the ninth question’s answer sheet for number sixty-six is still perfect, without faults or omissions," the ninth question’s judge nodded.
"So, you’re saying that, after the first nine questions, number sixty-six has scored ninety points?"
"Is number sixty-six the first-place winner of the second round of this Alchemy Competition?"
"What an astonishing fellow!"
"After the Alchemy Competition ends, I must meet this number sixty-six."
The judges all expressed their amazement and their expressions changed.
Chang Huan and Hu Donghe looked at each other but said nothing more.
"Brother Sun, hurry up and review the answer sheet!"
"That’s right, Pill Master Sun Qi, why haven’t you started to review the tenth question’s answer sheet yet?"
"Hurry up, let’s see how many points number sixty-six scored on the tenth question!" The first nine judges all looked toward Sun Qi, urging him.
At this moment, Sun Qi indeed had not begun to review the answer sheet in front of him. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
He was in no rush!
Because, even for the tenth question, he himself did not know the answer. The tenth question’s elixir was the Creation Pill, and Sun Qi did not specifically know what materials were needed to refine the Creation Pill. While the first nine questions had standard answers, the tenth question did not.
Reviewing the tenth question’s answer sheet was simple for Sun Qi, because, other than the name of the elixir, the portions for writing down the elixir materials were basically left blank.
If those Pill Masters even guessed the tenth elixir as the Creation Pill, they wouldn’t write or rather couldn’t write down the necessary materials to refine it. Writing aimlessly and not even getting one material right would definitely leave a bad impression on the judges. So of the four hundred and three answer sheets, ninety-nine percent, at the position for material writing, were blank. He would quickly review the tenth question; if the elixir name was written correctly, he’d assign four points and then set it aside.
Seeing that the other judges were urging him, Sun Qi smiled and started to review.
"Zero points!"
"Four points!"
"Zero points!"
"Four points!"
"Four points!"
Indeed, there were not a few Pill Masters who guessed the Creation Pill, making up more than half. However, among those answer sheets he reviewed, without exception, the portions for material writing were all blank.
Sun Qi quickly moved on to review the answer sheet for number sixty-six.
"Eh?"
Sun Qi saw that this answer sheet actually had answers written in the materials space.
After a moment of surprise, he then turned to look at the front of the answer sheet.
"Creation Pill!" Sun Qi saw the correct name written in the upper position of the answer sheet.
"Brother Sun, how is it? How many points does number sixty-six score for the tenth question?"
"Four points? Or did he score more?"
"..." The judges all burst out asking.
"You’re asking me? How would I know?" Sun Qi glared.
Everyone was stunned. Then, they awkwardly laughed, having forgotten in their eagerness that the tenth question’s elixir was the Creation Pill, and Pill Master Sun Qi also did not know the materials required to refine the Creation Pill.
"Master!" Sun Qi stood up and bowed to Hu Donghe.
"Oh?" Hu Donghe looked at Sun Qi.
"Master, this answer sheet has written out the materials needed to refine the Creation Pill, could you please take a look?" Sun Qi pointed at the answer sheet in front of him and spoke to Hu Donghe.
Normally, according to procedure, he should have sorted out all the tenth question’s answer sheets that had materials written and got the elixir name正确, and then handed them all to Hu Donghe for review. However, now the situation was a bit special; since Pill Master number sixty-six had scored full marks on the first nine questions, and also full marks in the first round, Sun Qi felt his master Hu Donghe might also want to see the tenth question’s answer sheet for number sixty-six sooner.
"Sun Qi, are you talking about Pill Master number sixty-six’s answer sheet?" Hu Donghe frowned.
"Yes, master!" Sun Qi nodded.
"Alright, hand it over, let me take a look!" Hu Donghe gestured and smiled.
Even now, Hu Donghe did not believe that Pill Master number sixty-six, Jing Yan, could correctly answer the materials required to refine the Creation Pill. Thus, his attitude—was very casual.
