Hearing this, Lin Han nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble City Lord Lu."

Lu Yuanqing quickly waved his hand and said, "Your Excellency is too polite. This is what I should do."

As he said that, he personally led the way in front. Lin Han brought Xiao Ha and followed him, while Yun Qingxue followed closely behind Lin Han. The group soon arrived at the venue of the alchemy competition.

The venue of the Alchemy Competition is located in the center of Danling City. It is a magnificent palace-style building. A huge golden plaque with three large characters "Danling Palace" written on it is hung on the palace gate.

The interior of the palace is spacious and bright, with hundreds of alchemy furnaces placed there. In front of each furnace stands an alchemist. They may be young or old, but without exception, they are all energetic and fully focused on making the alchemy.

The air is filled with a strong medicinal fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

After Lin Han and his group entered the Danling Palace, they immediately attracted everyone's attention. They were especially surprised when they saw Lu Yuanqing personally leading the way and following a young man with a respectful look on his face.

"Who is that person? Why did he ask the city lord to accompany him personally?"

"I don't know. I've never seen this person before."

"Could it be an alchemy master from another city?"

……

Everyone was talking about it and was curious about Lin Han's identity.

Lu Yuanqing brought Lin Han and others to the VIP seats in the front row, and then personally poured tea and water for them with an extremely respectful attitude.

"Mr. Inspector Lin, please take a seat." Lu Yuanqing said respectfully.

Lin Han nodded slightly and sat down. He looked around and found that the people sitting here were all people of noble status, either alchemy masters from other cities or powerful people in Danling City.

"Miss Yun, please sit down too." Lin Han said to Yun Qingxue.

Yun Qingxue was somewhat flattered to sit next to Lin Han, and couldn't help but feel excited. She had never thought that she would have the opportunity to sit with this famous inspector of the Shenxuan Temple.

"Sir Inspector Lin, the alchemy competition will begin soon. If you need anything, please let me know." Lu Yuanqing said softly.

Lin Han thought for a moment and said, "City Lord Lu, please help me get the qualification to compete in the competition. It's so exciting, I want to join in the fun too."

"I will participate in the competition as Lin Yu. Remember, don't reveal my identity."

Lu Yuanqing was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He nodded and agreed quickly, "Yes, sir, I will arrange it right away."

After saying that, he turned and left the VIP seats to arrange Lin Han's qualification to participate in the alchemy competition.

Not long after, Lu Yuanqing came back with a golden token in his hand. He handed it to Lin Han and said, "Mr. Lin, this is your entry token. Please keep it."

Lin Han took the token, nodded, and said, "Thank you, City Lord Lu."

At this moment, the host of the Alchemy Competition walked onto the stage and announced loudly, "Dear alchemists, distinguished guests, welcome to the Danling City Alchemy Competition! I am today's host, Zhao Feng!"

As Zhao Feng finished speaking, the entire Danling Hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.

Zhao Feng cleared his throat and continued, "The Alchemy Competition is a major event in Danling City, attracting countless alchemists every year. This year is no exception. We have received applications from alchemists from all over the place. After screening, we have finally determined the list of alchemists participating in today's competition."

As he spoke, he took out a list and began to read: "First, Li Ming!"

As he finished speaking, a young alchemist in a green robe stood up and walked to the alchemy furnace.

In the following time, Zhao Feng read out the names of all the participating alchemists one by one and asked them to stand in front of their own alchemy furnaces.

When he read the last name, Zhao Feng's voice suddenly rose a few degrees and said, "The last one is Lin Yu!"

Hearing this, Lin Han smiled slightly, stood up, and slowly walked to his alchemy furnace. He glanced at the alchemists around him and found that most of them were at the Foundation Establishment stage. Only a few had reached the Golden Core stage.

To him, the strength of these people was nothing to be afraid of. He participated in this alchemy competition just to see the level of alchemy in Danling City and to show off his own alchemy skills.

"Lin Yu? This name is so unfamiliar. I've never seen this alchemist before."

"Yeah, I haven't heard of it either. I don't know how strong he is."

"Looking at his appearance, he seems very young and probably doesn't have much experience."

……

Seeing that Lin Han was so young, some alchemists around couldn't help but talk about it and expressed doubts about his strength.

Afterwards, Zhao Feng began to explain the process of this alchemist competition: "Dear alchemists, today's alchemy competition will be divided into three stages."

"The first stage is medicinal herb identification. I will present ten different herbs, and you will need to accurately state their names and effects within the allotted time."

"The second stage is a competition of alchemy skills. I will give you a recipe for an elixir, and you need to refine it according to the requirements of the recipe."

"The third stage is free alchemy. You can choose your own herbs and recipes and refine the elixir you are best at. In the end, we will determine the winner based on the quality of your refined elixir."

……

at the same time,

"Interesting... a demon has sneaked in." Lin Han looked at a tall, sinister-looking alchemist, a cold glint in his eyes. He could sense a strong demonic aura emanating from this alchemist, clearly not a human cultivator.

Someone from the Demon Clan had sneaked into the Alchemy Competition, so he must have some ulterior motive. Lin Han decided to secretly keep an eye on this person to see what he was up to.

Soon, the first stage of the alchemy competition began. Zhao Feng took out ten different medicinal herbs and placed them in front of everyone. These herbs were relatively common, but for alchemists, they also tested their basic skills.

"Now, start the timer! Alchemists, please identify the names and effects of these medicinal herbs as quickly as possible." Zhao Feng said.

As he finished speaking, numerous alchemists began to carefully identify the herbs. Some sniffed, some felt, and some used their spiritual senses to probe. Everyone wanted to identify the herbs as quickly and accurately as possible.

Lin Han smiled faintly. He scanned the herbs with his spiritual sense and immediately had the answer in his mind. These herbs were so familiar to him that he didn't need to spend too much time identifying them.

Soon, he raised his hand to indicate that he had completed the identification.
