The barrier of mist seemed ethereal as it blocked everyone's line of sight, leaving everyone stunned at the sudden change.
The familiar wizened voice was heard again. “After choosing a furnace, a barrier will be placed around you, cutting off all contact with the
outside world. When you’ve refined a pill or decided to give up, you can get rid of the barrier.”
Jack raised an eyebrow at this and could not help but feel impressed by the competition’s organizer. Everything had been properly arranged.
With the barrier, he would be spared a lot of trouble.
He did not have to worry about anyone interrupting him. After all, he would be separated from the outside the moment the barrier was up.
The person inside would not know how others were progressing and thus would not feel pressured. They would be able to get past five days
peacefully.
Jack let out a sigh as he frowned and looked at the furnaces. He could not control What everyone elsewas doing, but his only thought was just to quickly finish the round.
Jack might have the memories from the past and be confident with those ancient pill runes, but herefused to kick things back and take a breather until the results were out.
He wanted to give himself enough time.
The furnaces were split into six rows of five. After thinking about it, he walked to the last one in the sixthrow. He was already used to looking for corners. In the end, all the furnaces were exactly the same, sothere was no difference no matter which one he picked. When he stepped within the 90-centimeterrange from it, a bundle of mist rose around him, turning into a barrier that cut him off from the outsideworld.
At that moment, Jack felt more relaxed than he ever had, despite the fact that he was already calmduring this time. Unless anyone crossed the line with their words or directly affected Jack’s benefits, he
would not bother with them, treating their words as nonsense. However, everyone was still too noisy,much to his chagrin. The barrier separated him completely from the outside world, which made Jackquite happy.
Finally, he did not need to listen to their nonsense anymore.novelbin
The last furnace on the sixth row was incredibly close to where Jack had been. After he walked over,the people around him had not even had the time to react before the barrier separated Jack fromeveryone else. He was the second person to enter a barrier. When everyone else reacted, they felttheir lips twitching.
Exasperated, Ethan snorted. “I guarantee that something is wrong with this kid’s head. He seems more enthusiastic than anyone, jumping
into the challenge after someone else started. I wonder if he’s that confident or if he’s just ignorant.”
The alchemists from White Marsh Continent behind Ethan all discussed among themselves as well.
“Who knows what goes on in his head? It looks like he doesn’t know what nine hundred eighty-three ancient pill runes actually represent.
Otherwise, how could he be so confident? Even I’m not confident that I’ll be able to perfectly condense nine hundred eighty-three pill ancient
pill runes in five days. We even need to guarantee that they’ll have a fifty percent refinement rate!”
After saying that, he sighed. It felt as though he was shouldering two large rocks on his shoulders, causing him to not be able to even stand
up straight. He could not handle the difficulty.
