To participate in the Alchemy Grand Competition, one needs qualifications. These qualifications are not based on fame or level but rather on talent.
The purpose of holding the Alchemy Grand Competition at the headquarters of the Alchemy Pavilion is to select talented individuals with alchemical aptitude from the lower domains. If the assessment were based on strength, conventional methods would struggle to discern true power in a short time. Conducting a spiritual medicine aptitude assessment is much easier.
This crystal stone pillar will provide a comprehensive evaluation based on the test taker's age, strength, mental strength intensity, mental talent, and more.
Although a high comprehensive evaluation does not necessarily indicate strong power, it at least represents good growth potential. Once one stands out in the Alchemy Grand Competition and enters the Martial Domain, with the strength of the Alchemy Pavilion, weaknesses in cultivation are of no concern; they have ways to enhance the strength of the winners.
What they value most is still talent, which reflects future growth potential.
"What level do you need to reach to qualify for the Alchemy Grand Competition?"
A pharmacist asked.
The old man smiled slightly and said, "The crystal pillar has a total of one hundred levels. As long as you reach level seventy-six or above, including seventy-six, you qualify to participate in the competition."
Seventy-six?
The crowd exchanged glances, clearly unaware of the difficulty of reaching seventy-six.
With a total of one hundred levels, seventy-six is not too high nor too low; it falls in the upper-middle range, so it shouldn't be too difficult, right?
As everyone thought this, quite a few people had gathered at the entrance, all geniuses emerging from Fengyun Dan Garden. Most appeared quite young, but the aura they exuded was extraordinary.
"Which force does this team belong to?"
"There aren't many people, and their spirit seems average. They don't look like a team from a major power."
"I heard at the entrance earlier that it’s the team from the Northern Sky Domain Alchemy Pavilion."
"Northern Sky Domain Alchemy Pavilion? So it’s from that kind of place. Haha, I’ve heard that the Northern Sky Domain is the most barren region among the four domains of the continent, with few talents born in previous generations. Just a bunch of country bumpkins."
"Disperse, disperse! There's nothing to see."
"I bet that among the contestants from the Northern Sky Domain Alchemy Pavilion, there will hardly be anyone who can pass the spiritual medicine aptitude assessment."
"Haha, I dare say that with the Northern Sky Domain's usual standards, they probably won't even reach half!"
"Of course! The passing rate from the Southern Hua Domain before was less than seventy percent, and the Northern Sky Domain expects to reach fifty percent? Dream on!"
"Seventy-six is not simple. Just from that trashy place in the Northern Sky Domain, how many can reach that level?"
The crowd buzzed with discussion, whispering amongst themselves. They were all geniuses from other forces participating in the Alchemy Grand Competition, each wearing a mocking expression.
In the Tianwu Continent, where strength is revered, upon hearing that Qin Chen and the others came from the Northern Sky Domain, they felt disdain and contempt without even needing to see their tests.
Xie Aoling and the others clenched their fists, faces filled with anger.
These guys look down on others too much.
"Senior, may I ask how difficult it is to reach the index of seventy-six?" Qin Chen was unbothered and asked the old man with a calm expression.
The old man smiled faintly and said, "The spiritual medicine aptitude assessment evaluates a pharmacist's overall strength. An index of seventy-six means that generally, those who can become a King of Medicine before the age of forty can pass the assessment. Beyond that, it depends on overall strength in various aspects."
Hiss!
Upon hearing this, many contestants from the Northern Sky Domain gasped. What a joke! They actually have to break through to become a King of Medicine before the age of forty to pass? Isn’t this the most basic assessment to participate in the competition? Is it really that exaggerated?
