Not long after, the green glow disappeared after it had absorbed the jade tube as if it had never appeared before. Jack raised an eyebrow, no
longer dwelling on the question.
He left the furnace and headed to where alchemists of Hestia had gathered earlier. He turned to look at the barriers around the other
furnaces. He was the only one whose barrier had dissipated.
It meant that he was the first one to finish refining the pill and leave the barrier. He made a mental calculation and realized that it was already
noon on the third day. He felt like most alchemists would not give up that easily, so there should only be people coming out on the fourth day
onward. Thinking of this, he took out a mat from Mustard Seed and placed it on the floor before he shut his eyes to rest.
Sure enough, Jack’s prediction came true. Even if they might not garner fruitful results, everyone didthe best they could. They would not come out of the barrier unless they were forced to.
A whole day had passed before another alchemist’s barrier was lifted. This alchemist walked out of thebarrier with a dark look on his face. When one came, others followed.
Slowly, five alchemists were forced to walk away after expending all their materials.
Of those five alchemists, three were from Hestia, one was from the White Marsh Continent, and the lastwas from the Chaos Continent. As they stepped out, none of them looked the slightest bit joyful. Theywere not even in any mood to mock the others as they walked back to their original positions. The threefrom Hestia arrived in front of Jack. After they measured Jack for a moment, the three of themexchanged looks of curiosity.
The three of them did not say anything at the start. All of them retrieved mats from their storage spacesand sat down just like Jack did. Only after that did they start complaining.
An alchemist in gray robes frowned and said, “It’s just like I thought, I couldn’t even condense ahundred ancient pill runes, let alone nine hundred and eighty three. I decided to just give it a shot in theend and ruined the three sets of materials. There was no point staying inside, so I came out.”
“Same here, more or less, just slightly better I suppose. I ended up successfully condensing twohundred pill runes, but a lot of them weren’t at fifty percent refinement.”
“I didn’t ruin those materials. There’s just half a day left after all. There was no point in staying inside, so I came out,” said a white-robed man
next to the gray-robed man.
After the white-robed man sighed, he shook his head and lamented, “All I’m getting after participating in this competition is feeling like trash
more and more. Even though I knew someone would be better than me, I didn’t think I’d be this bad!”
“We thought we were lucky when we heard that we had five days... Now, it’s obvious that we’re cursed. It’s not like we don’t know how the
other rounds went. Compared to them, this round is noticeably harder. We’re just so unlucky.” The man spoke dejectedly as though he was
useless, lamenting that his luck was horrible to encounter such a hard round.
The last alchemist, who was a man with a mustache, frowned. “None of our results are good, but it doesn’t mean that everyone here is
trash.”
