The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 539: Level 2 Full Score

Sun Qi handed Jing Yan’s answer sheet for question ten to Hu Donghe.

"What are you all staring at? Hurry up and continue reviewing the answer sheets you’re responsible for!" Hu Donghe waved his hand at the judges.

The judges were suddenly jolted back to reality and resumed their review of the answer sheets in front of them.

Hu Donghe nonchalantly opened Jing Yan’s answer sheet for the tenth question.

"Creation Pill!" Hu Donghe nodded slightly.

Chang Huan also craned his neck to look at the answer sheet in Hu Donghe’s hands, he saw a long list of Spirit Grass names written under the name of the Elixir, Creation Pill. However, Chang Huan wasn’t clear about the ingredients needed to refine the Creation Pill; although he was also a Pill Master, he was merely a stronger level eight Pill Master. His ability to sit on par with Hu Donghe was mainly due to his identity from the Holy City, not his Pill Master status.

"This..." Hu Donghe slowly moved his gaze downwards and his pupils suddenly contracted, his body also slightly shook.

Chang Huan noticed the anomaly, a sharp light flickered in his eyes.

Hu Donghe became very serious, his gaze slowly moving across the answer sheet.

"How is this possible?" After Hu Donghe had seen all the Spirit Grasses, he let out a shocked roar in his heart.

Then, he slowly rolled up the answer sheet and put it away, his gaze turning towards the slightly gaunt figure on the third-tier square.

"City Lord, this answer sheet?" Chang Huan couldn’t help asking.

Hu Donghe then looked towards Chang Huan.

He pondered for a moment.

However, he quickly spoke, "Full marks."

Given that Chang Huan represented the Holy Master to a certain degree, Hu Donghe really couldn’t hide anything. Besides, there was no need to.

At these words, Chang Huan’s face changed drastically. Of course, he understood what the Creation Pill was.

Hu Donghe saying this answer sheet deserved full marks meant that the answer sheet had listed the materials needed to refine the Creation Pill.

What did this represent?

Clearly, this indicated that Jing Yan might know the Pill Formula for the Creation Pill. If Jing Yan didn’t know the formula, how could he possibly know the materials for refining the Creation Pill?

"A hundred points?" Chang Huan gasped, suppressing the shock in his heart.

"Indeed. Envoy Chang Huan, I won’t hide it from you, Jing Yan’s answer sheet has slight differences from my standard answer. However, these differences are very minute. And after careful consideration, perhaps using the materials listed on Jing Yan’s answer sheet could also produce the Creation Pill," Hu Donghe said gravely.

Hu Donghe’s ability in Alchemy Dao was indeed extremely high.

Hearing Hu Donghe say this, Chang Huan understood what he meant.

The materials that Jing Yan had listed might slightly differ from the materials Hu Donghe used when refining the Creation Pill. However, this difference was minimal, likely involving only one or at most two different ingredients. And even with one or two different ingredients, it might still be possible to refine the Creation Pill.

Chang Huan nodded.

Hu Donghe looked at Chang Huan, but didn’t say anything more.

In truth, the shock in Hu Donghe’s heart was something that Chang Huan couldn’t fathom. Because according to the Pill Formula he possessed, it was indeed possible to refine the Creation Pill. However, one of the Spirit Grasses listed in his formula was almost impossible to find on the Continent now. This had caused the Creation Pill numbers to be extremely rare, and he could only endlessly search for these ingredients, unsure of how long it would take to refine a batch of Creation Pill.

Yet the materials Jing Yan had written did not include that Spirit Grass, but instead used another ingredient. The ingredient Jing Yan had listed was also very precious, but it was obtainable in Pill Country if one was willing to pay enough Spirit Stones. If the materials listed by Jing Yan could indeed refine the Creation Pill, then...

Hu Donghe dared not think further.

The result was that the quantity of Creation Pills could greatly increase. And with an increase in the Creation Pills, the number of Martial Artists in the Daoist Realm could also rapidly grow.

What did Martial Artists in the Daoist Realm signify?

This was quite understandable!

Lanqu County was one of the ninety-nine Commandery cities in the Heavenly Origin Continent, and there were only a few Daoist Realm Martial Artists in the entire county. The Lanqu County Prince was merely a Late Stage Martial Artist in the Daoist Realm. Across the entire Heavenly Origin Continent, all the Martial Artists in the Daoist Realm, when added together, might only amount to around two or three thousand.

A Martial Artist in the Daoist Realm was undoubtedly considered a real powerhouse on the Heavenly Origin Continent. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

As these thoughts spun in his mind, Hu Donghe even contemplated calling Jing Yan over to ask him thoroughly. However, he eventually dismissed the thought.

Because he considered that behind Jing Yan, there might be a Pill Master in Alchemy Dao even stronger than Hu Donghe himself. Otherwise, he couldn’t understand how Jing Yan could possess the Pill Formula for the Creation Pill. From his perspective, he didn’t think the materials written by Jing Yan were done haphazardly.

If it really was as he suspected... Although he was very eager to learn more information about the Creation Pill formula that Jing Yan possessed, he couldn’t resort to any forceful methods.

Chang Huan by his side, also wanted to see Jing Yan’s answer sheet for the tenth question. But in the end, he didn’t speak up. Given that Hu Donghe had immediately put away Jing Yan’s answer sheet after reviewing it, this was clearly a statement of his stance. If he were to speak up, perhaps Hu Donghe would accommodate his request due to various considerations, but he would definitely harbor some resentment.

Chang Huan felt that he could not afford to upset Hu Donghe. One must know that Hu Donghe had a very high standing before the Holy Master. If it wasn’t because the Holy Master was too busy to come to Pill Country in person, he probably would have wanted to come himself. Chang Huan was not an arrogant person; although Hu Donghe treated him courteously, he couldn’t truly believe he was on an equal footing with Hu Donghe unless one day he too became a level nine Pill Master.

As time elapsed!

Finally, the ten judges had completed reviewing all the answer sheets.

Sun Qi, too, among the four hundred and three answer sheets, picked out a few and sent them to Hu Donghe. After a careful review, Hu Donghe merely said one sentence, "All are four points!"

Clearly, the few answer sheets that had written the materials for refining the Creation Pill were none close to the correct answer.

Next was to tally the scores and rank the top one hundred Pill Masters by their number.

"Master, what’s the score for answer sheet number sixty-six?" Sun Qi hesitated before asking.

"Full marks," Hu Donghe replied.

Hu Donghe and Sun Qi’s conversation earlier had been very soft, so the ten judges didn’t hear it.

But now that Sun Qi asked, Hu Donghe’s voice was comparatively louder. Not only did the judges hear clearly, but even those distinguished guests also heard it distinctly.

Everyone’s breaths tightened, and they stared blankly.

"Master, does this mean number sixty-six also scored full marks in the second round?" After a full breath’s time, Sun Qi asked again, stunned.
