Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss Chapter 837 – Alchemy contest

“If you want to join the other contests, you can just ask Instructor Mao.” Han Miao Shuang said.

“I’m just asking, I don’t intend to go.” Sima You Yue laughed.

She still had so much to do, how would she have the energy to participate in contests.

“If there is a chance, you still can try. I heard that for those outstanding contestants, it’s easier to mingle on the Continent. ” Han Miao Shuang said, “People here treat people with high ranks and occupations with more respect. Especially you, this sort of person.”

“If everyone finds out about Junior Brother’s, he will be treated highly.” Su Xiao Xiao said, ” But looking at you, you are unlikely to care about others’ respect for you.”

“Senior really knows me well.” Sima You Yue said.

She really didn’t care how strangers saw her.

“You just don’t care.” Han Miao Shuang said, “If all your abilities are revealed, a bunch of geniuses will be crying, but you just don’t show off. I want to show off that I have an awesome junior but I can’t.”

“The ability is mine, not others. Whether I’m capable or not, or whether others know about my capabilities, it doesn’t matter.” Sima You Yue said while shaking her head lightly.

“Junior Brother’s attitude is better than ours.” Su Xiao Xiao said.

“Ugh, indeed.” Han Miao Shuang admitted.

They had seen that through Jian Jun Xian’s betrayal, Sima You Yue was hurt badly. Especially in the ice room, the moment she collapsed, she gazed at Jiang Jun Xian with pain and anger.

But she quickly got over it, understood the reason behind Jiang Jun Xian’s actions, and even enlightened them. Those days let them think of ways to heal from the blow they took.

They had seen her effort and thoughts. Come to think of it, their mentality indeed wasn’t as good as hers.

They had to pull themselves together! If not, this alchemy contest’s task wouldn’t be completed.

The people on stage were whispering, all the Alchemists competing with their recipes. After an hour, some alchemists began the task.

Sima You Yue couldn’t participate in the contest, but seeing the materials on top of the table, she already guessed the difference between grade seven and grade six’s medicine. Since she already knew, she lost interest and started chatting with Han Miao Shuang and the others.

People keep failing during the refining process, but they didn’t show any sign of panic, they put away the waste product and continued refining.

“Zi Qi, can you make a guess when Ouyang and the others are going to start refining?” Fatty Qu asked.

“I can’t guess.” Wei Zi Qi shakes her head.

He was not familiar with alchemy. He only knew that they were capable of refining, but he couldn’t guess when they would start.

“Ouyang is going to start.” said Sima You Yue.

After she finished her sentence, she saw Ouyang Fei put the recipe down, pick the materials up and start refining.

“You Yue you’re amazing, you could guess even that.” Fatty Qu gazed at her with adoration.

“I didn’t guess it, I saw his expression.” Sima You Yue said.

“Alright, I thought you were aware of his strength, that’s why you knew.”

“I don’t think anyone has refined this medicine before, so he had to learn it before he used it. It’s usually not difficult.” said Sima You Yue.

“Not sure if they can succeed in one try. Let’s see.”

This round of pill refininery was not too difficult, but for the first round, very few succeeded in the first try. Even Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei failed the first try before they succeeded.

After five to six hours, someone succeeded in refining the medicine. They raised their hand to indicate that they had finished. The teachers who were watching from the side walked up to them and recorded the data.

Most of them that started to finish were grade 6 alchemists, as grade six alchemy’s duration was shorter. There were also those who failed at the beginning, which delayed some of their time, causing some of them to take longer than grade 7 alchemists.

As the alchemists rested at their spot, they took pills to recover their mental strength. Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei’s medicine were specially refined by You Yue. With Spirit Fluid in pills, they could immediately feel their mental strength recover quickly.

While they were resting, the results for the first round came out. Grade 7 alchemists were ranked in order of their grade list, and the grade six alchemists were in another list.

They rested for two hours. When it was almost evening, the sect’s teacher announced the start of round two.

Sima You Yue and the others waited till late night before Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei finally finished refining their medicine.

At this moment, the square was brightly lit with the flames. As the second round of results needed some time to assess, the inspector would add up the student’s result and announce the end of the contest. The final result would then be published within the next few days.

Sima You Yue and the others went down where Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei were already waiting for them downstairs.

“Ouyang, I saw that you were the first to finish among the grade 6 alchemists. Awesome!” Fatty Qu exclaimed in admiration while giving Ouyang Fei a thumbs up.

“Bei Gong, you weren’t bad either, only later than Ou Yang by ten minutes.” said Wei Zi Qi.

“Seeing your performance, you should be rank one and two among the grade 6 alchemists.” Sima You Yue said with a smile.

“If we’re ranked one and two, you both have to treat us to a feast!” Fatty exclaimed.

“If it’s true, who cares if we have to treat you?” Ouyang answered in a relaxed tone. He was in a good mood.

“Let’s go, we’ll go back and rest, Fatty has a contest tomorrow!”

“Fatty, if you don’t get into top ten, I’ll beat you up, how about that?” Little Seven said.

“What if I get in?” Fatty Qu asked.

“Then I’ll still beat you up, but I think that I will make you feel comfortable.”

“What is this, I get beat up whether or not I get in top ten?” Fatty Qu jumped, that’s not a bet he wanted to make.

“If you get in, I will beat you up and let you get promoted, how about that?”

“This… I can think about it.” Fatty Qu remembered the last time Little Seven beat him up. His strength did increase quite a bit.

Ugh, relying on getting beat up to grow stronger, nobody else could do that!

On the second day it was Fatty Qu’s Armament contest. Everybody went to watch it together, and Sima You Yue watched it especially earnestly.

She used to watch Fatty Qu smelt tools but didn’t feel anything, now that she wanted to learn it herself, her attitude changed.

The steps for Armament and Alchemy were similar. The first step was to gather the materials and melt them, fuse them together, then shape them. The only thing was that every step was much harder than refining medicine, because it was manual labour. Especially the last step, which needed continuous pounding and continuous repair in order to be a good spirit weapon.

Smelting tools also generally took up more time. The amount of mental strength needed was not little, which was why they only got Fatty Qu and the others to refine one spirit weapon. When they finished refining the spirit weapon, they could leave after the teachers recorded their results.
