227 Chapter 227
"Medicine King Hall Announcement: the advanced apothecary Lenka has applied for the certification test. Please go to the No. 3 high platform to take part in the test."
Just as everyone was attracted to Dick, the sudden hint immediately caused a scream.
Dick couldn't help turning his head and found that the one who took part in the advanced apothecary test was a young man about his age.
He was dressed in a soft white dress as if he was a born noble, with an irresistible temperament.
Everyone's attention was focused on Lenka. With the existence of the advanced apothecary, they didn't pay attention to Dick, the intermediate apothecary, anymore.
Looking at the smile on Lenka's face, Dick shrugged and went on doing his preparation.
As soon as Lenka entered Medicine King Hall, he noticed Dick on the No.1 high platform.
He was very curious about how a human of the human level would be qualified to come here.
Then, he saw Dick take out a level-five medicine furnace from his storage ring, which was Argus's coffin.
This made him jealous. After all, the medicine furnace he used was only level four.
This guy of the human level was really unworthy of such a good medicine furnace.
On the No.1 high platform, Dick took a deep breath and began to check the elixirs he needed to refine.
"Hint: the certification test begins. You need to refine a level-three elixir, Sedative Pill. If it was successfully refined, you would be regarded as passed. If it failed, you would have to wait for a month to take part in the test again."
"Hint: you only have one chance to refine it. Medicine King Hall will provide you with a set of medicinal materials for refining Sedative Pill for free."
After reading it, Dick felt stressed.
There was only one chance, and the success rate of refining the level-three elixirs by the intermediate apothecary was only a poor 9.8%.
This made the qualified apothecary test more like a gamble. Every apothecary was betting whether they could seize the success rate of 9.8% this time.
Although he could refine the failed waste elixirs into a level-three elixir with slightly poor quality, this was a certification test, and he couldn't cheat in this way.
The success rate of refining the level-three elixirs by the advanced apothecary was 19.6%, which was two times higher than that of the intermediate apothecary.
As a level-three apothecary, Lenka was very familiar with the way to refine the level-three elixirs. At this time, he began to refine the medicinal materials according to his own rhythm.
Dick was not in a hurry. He was not the kind of apothecary who put hope on the success rate of 9.8% and tried to play the odds. He had to seize every opportunity that might raise the success rate.
He put all the medicinal materials he needed in front of him and extracted all the impurities from the medicinal materials with his talent of refinement, which could improve his success rate a lot.
But the people around didn't know what Dick was doing. They could only see that Dick was constantly stroking the medicinal materials in front of him.
"What is this guy doing?"
"Is he really an intermediate apothecary?"
"I don't know how he reached the intermediate apothecary. He doesn't snatch to refine medicine but stroke the medicinal materials here."
The people around were talking about him. Even Lenka couldn't help laughing out loud.
Dick was still forcing on his business. Fifteen minutes later, he finally started to put the herbs into the medicine furnace. At this time, Lenka had finished refining medicinal materials.
The hall was silent. The appearance of the advanced apothecary and the level-five medicine furnace had firmly caught everyone's attention. No one wanted to miss the moment when the qualified apothecary was born.
In a twinkling of an eye, an hour had passed. Lenka wiped the sweat on his forehead and finally began to condense the elixir.
So far, things had gone smoothly. He seemed to have seen the title of the qualified apothecary beckoning.
With full attention, Lenka carefully controlled the medicine furnace, and everyone was also nervous.
The medicine furnace kept shaking, and rays of light shot out from it. However, just as everyone thought that Lenka was about to succeed, a dull sound came from his medicine furnace.
Then the light slowly dimmed, and a stench floated out of the medicine furnace.
He failed! He actually failed! Lenka looked at the medicine furnace in front of him in disbelief. He had never thought that he would fail at the last step.
But the result could not be changed. He could only wait for a month to test again.
If even Lenka failed, the intermediate apothecary would have no chance of winning, right?
Everyone thought in their hearts, but they still looked at Dick. Everyone was stunned.
Dick's medicine furnace was shining brightly. Just now, their attention was attracted by Lenka, and they didn't notice that Dick had also begun to condense the elixir!
"Um, even Lenka failed. He should also fail, right?"
Someone said uncertainly, but the next second, the bright light in Dick's medicine furnace suddenly disappeared, and an incomparably strong fragrance of medicine instantly spread out in the hall.
"Medicine King Hall Announcement: Congratulations! Dick, the intermediate apothecary, has successfully refined Sedative Pill. You have passed the certification test and become the qualified apothecary of Medicine King Hall."
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on the person who had said that Dick might fail, and then everyone ran to a corner of the hall.
Everyone ran as fast as a rabbit, afraid that if they were late, the task entrusted to refine elixirs would be canceled.
This was the first qualified apothecary in the world who had passed the certification test and been recognized by Medicine King Hall! It was one of a kind in the world!
However, Dick didn't pay much attention to their reaction. He opened his medicine furnace and took out the elixirs he refined. According to the rules, the elixirs in the furnace belonged to him.
Lenka looked at Dick with jealousy and walked out of Medicine King Hall with a snort.
He didn't think he failed this time because he was not strong enough. In his opinion, it was just his bad luck. Coincidentally, Dick seized the chance of 9.8%.
He believed that if the two of them formally competed to refine the level-three elixirs, his success rate would be higher than that of Dick!
"Congratulations on becoming the apothecary Medicine King Hall. As the first qualified apothecary, you will receive 10 points for prestige points (the person who is awarded this title after will no longer have a prestige reward). At the same time, the qualified apothecary interface is open to you. You can enter the mall to shop, receive and submit tasks through this interface."
The hint of passing the test appeared in front of Dick, which made Dick very excited. It meant that he could immediately start to accept tasks and obtain a steady stream of rewards.
He opened his qualified apothecary interface, and his information was hanging in the column of the qualified apothecary interface and there were more than a dozen commission requests under his name.
"Name: Dick. Verified Level: level-one qualified apothecary (0/100). Task success rate: no statistics (success rate was calculated every one hundred times). Task token: 0. Available task: 100."
It turned out that qualified apothecaries were also classified. The worst was level one, and the highest was divine level.
And the grade decided the number of tasks that could be accepted. Every time the grade was increased by one, the number of tasks that could be accepted would increase by one hundred.
