The next question was even more interesting. The question was: "You are a first-grade alchemist, and while training in the Demon Ancestor Mountain Range, you accidentally got injured on your arm by a White Blade Poison Spider. The poison from the spider rapidly invades your body; soon your arm loses sensation, and the toxin spreads towards your heart at an astonishing speed. At this moment, you have no other antidotes on you, and the nearest city is a thousand miles away. What will you do? Why will you do that?"
Interesting, truly interesting!
Upon seeing these two questions, Qin Chen couldn't help but nod repeatedly.
The person who set these questions was definitely a very thoughtful alchemist. At first glance, these questions seemed simple, but they actually concealed immense danger.
For example, in the first question, Dragon’s Saliva Fragrance is a third-grade spirit herb. As an alchemist, upon seeing Dragon’s Saliva Fragrance, one would surely choose to pick it up. A smarter student might write that they would carefully observe their surroundings to check for dangers, etc.
But in reality, all those answers would be wrong. Dragon’s Saliva Fragrance is the favorite spirit herb of the third-grade demon beast, the Illusory Luos Beast. They almost co-exist, and the scent of a century-old Dragon’s Saliva Fragrance can only travel up to fifty meters. If you can smell the fragrance, it means you have already fallen into the Illusory Luos Beast's illusion, and the only way to escape is to immediately take the Breaking Illusion Pill and then run.
As for the second question, it was also very interesting. The White Blade Poison Spider is a highly poisonous demon beast with potent toxins. Once the poison from the White Blade Poison Spider invades, it must be neutralized in a very short time, or else the toxins will swiftly seep into the martial artist's organs, leading to paralysis or even death.
This question tests an alchemist's ability to handle emergencies. After all, in the wilderness, one will encounter numerous problems. Whether an alchemist possesses the ability to resolve sudden incidents is extremely crucial.
Rustle, rustle, rustle!
With the pen gliding, Qin Chen quickly wrote down the answers to the questions.
After a little over half an hour, Qin Chen had completed the entire exam paper.
After a brief check to ensure there were no mistakes, Qin Chen stood up.
"What is this kid planning? Could it be that he doesn’t know how to answer and is thinking of withdrawing?"
"Hmph, I knew he was just scribbling randomly. Now that he knows it’s difficult, he wants to give up."
Withdrawing midway through the exam is a very serious matter.
He will definitely face severe punishment.
The other candidates saw this scene and sneered one by one.
Sure enough, Alchemist Chen Mu was already in a bad mood and, upon seeing this scene, immediately shouted angrily.
"Kid, what are you doing? Disturbing the exam discipline. Do you know the consequences?"
With a slap on the table, Chen Mu stood up. As long as Qin Chen didn't give him a reasonable explanation, he would definitely teach Qin Chen a lesson today.
"Alchemist Chen Mu, I finished answering and submitted my paper early. Isn't that allowed?!" Qin Chen frowned.
"You finished answering?"
Chen Mu was taken aback, staring in disbelief.
Ouyang Cheng was also dumbfounded. It had only been half the time, and this kid had finished? What a joke!
"Just hand in your paper." Chen Mu snorted coldly.
Qin Chen handed in the exam paper, and indeed it was filled with answers. Chen Mu was left with no place to vent his anger, his teeth itching with hatred.
This kid must have just written down some random answers; he’s really infuriating.
If he had left many blank, I could have taken the opportunity to attack. But he wrote down all the answers, and now I have no chance to retaliate.
"Get out of here."
Chen Mu said discontentedly.
"When will the exam results be announced? When does the next round start?" Qin Chen asked again.
