But, today, elder Jugge Huan saw sothing impossible which was that he didn't even find even an ounce of essence qi inside Joey's body. So, he was very surprised.
Hearing that, all the experts sitting in the luxurious seats also beca astonished and looked at Joey weirdly.
"Chief Jugge Haun, you are right. Earlier, I have also scanned the aura on this boy. But, I don't feel any essence qi from inside his body. " The old Bolin sitting beside Grand Elder Yuhi Jiang added.
The Chief Jugge Huan cald himself down and said, "Elder Liu, go and announce the result. Joey will get the perfect points for the first trial."
Elder Liu quickly rushed toward the center of the platform. Then, the ten elders gathered together and started discussing the result of the first trial.
Soon, they made a list and started flashing the results of the first trial on the large screen in the air just above the platform.
The na of fifty participants could be seen on the screen.
Joey's na was on the top of the list, getting 100 points.
Suyin was in 7th position on the list, getting 64 points.
"These are the nas of the fifty candidates that passed the first trial. Others can leave the platform." An elder among them announced loudly.
After that, another elder ca up and said, "The Second Trial, which is the battle of Refining Herbs, will begin soon. Elder Liu, please continue." Then he made a hand gesture politely to Elder Liu, signaling him to continue.

After that, elder Liu bent down a bit, touched on the ground, and shouted, "Activate!"
Soon, the ground on the platform started moving and so strange types of rocks started rising from the ground and finally form five small compartnts.
"What a strange type of rock? " Joey looked at the rocked with interest and started observing it more carefully.
"Oh, there is a tier-10 magic array formation within it. Hmph! While this platform is part of that array formation, too. The foundation of this Seven Stars Sect is really deep. And those Hall Of Alchemy is also another faction of this Sect. I should never underestimate this Sect." He thought himself and kept reminding himself in his mind.
Then Elder Liu stood up and announced, "The Second trial will begin now. This test is really ant to test the type of essence alchemy fire you can summon. And also to test your control over your own essence alchemy fire when you start refining those herbs. "
"Alright, starting from the bottom ranks, five contestants will take the test at once and will continue until you all finish taking your tests. " He added.
Then, he announced the na of the last five participants from the 50th position.
The five contestants who he called out ca out and entered each of the five portable compartnts made up of that special rock. Then, they all started taking the tests inside the rooms as instructed by the question sheets inside the compartnts.
Outside, everyone saw what they were doing inside the compartnts on the large screen just above the platform.
At first, they all used their spell and summoned their essence qi fire for alchemy. All of their essence alchemy fires were in tier-3 Fire intents. It was a very common type of fire essence tier that could be summoned by average alchemists all over the central continent.
After that, they started refining the herbs inside the portable compartnts. As instructed, the first herb they need to refine was a herb that had a nature of dium-level resistance toward the fire.
The 4 cultivators out of 5 had successfully refined the herbs.
The next herb they needed to refine was a herb that had a strong resistive nature toward the fire.
This ti, every five of them failed in refining those herbs. Then, they were all teleported out from inside.
On the large screen just above the platform, the results of the five of them ca out as,
## All of Them Fails ##
Then, the next five contestants also entered inside those portable contestants and started their test like the previous one.
This ti also, all of them failed when they started refining those herbs having strong resistive nature toward the fire.
Similarly, almost all the contestants failed when refining the herb, having a strong resistive nature against the fire. Only 10 contestants remained for taking the 2nd test.
The nest 5 contestants from rank 10th to 6th entered inside the portable test rooms. Suyin was also among this group.
This ti, all five of them successfully refined those herbs having the strong resistive power against the fire.
The next one to refine was a type of herb that had a very brittle nature and low tolerance to fire.
The five started refining their herbs.
But, unfortunately, two of them failed this ti.
On the large screen above the platform, three nas ca out as,
## Rank 7 Suyin, of the Hall of Alchemy Union, Yueliang City headquarter. Qualified for the final test! ##
## Rank 8 Wu Youji, of the Hall of Alchemy Union, Red Sparrow County headquarters. Qualified for the final test! ##
## Rank 10 Ji Bu, from the One Thousand Poisons Sect. Qualified for the final test!##
Soon, only five contestants, including Joey left to take the test.
Then they entered inside each of the test rooms.
"Look! That is Huang Xiaoming. He is only 35 this year and already a tier-4 Alchemy master." Soone from the crowd shouted.
"I heard that he had even surpassed his brother Huang Xie in the talent of Alchemy." Another added.
"Do you an the Huang Xie, the previous champion of the last term's Open Alchemy Contest?" A petite-looking cultivator near them asked with surprise.
"Right!" the previous cultivator replied.
"So, Huang Xiaoming will be the champion of this term's Open Alchemy Contest." He added.
