Chapter 286

"Keep a close eye on this person." "Yes." At this moment, the host of the Pill Gathering stepped forward. "Hello everyone, and welcome to Pill City for this Pill Gathering. A warm welcome also to our esteemed guests who have traveled from afar. As you all know, the rules for this Pill Gathering have been adjusted slightly in order to allow more talented young alchemists to catch everyone's eye. So I won't say too much more; let me simply introduce the rules for this competition. This time, there will be no preliminary rounds—everything is decided in a single match. Participants are required to bring your own spirit herbs and refine the highest-grade pill you are capable of within your limits. The top three will be ranked based on the grade and quality of the pills. The time limit is three hours. Timing starts now." As the host's voice trailed off, the alchemists in the plaza quickly produced their cauldrons and laid out the required spirit herbs. The faster ones had already preheated their cauldrons and begun purifying their herbs.
