Zhao Feng was surprised to see Lin Han finish the identification so quickly. He had not expected that this seemingly young alchemist could identify the medicine so quickly.

"Lin Yu, have you completed the identification?" Zhao Feng asked.

Lin Han nodded and said, "Yes, I have finished it."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feng walked over, picked up a piece of white paper and a brush, handed it to Lin Han, and said, "Then write down the names and effects of these herbs."

Lin Han took the paper and pen, quickly wrote down the answer, and handed it to Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng took the paper and examined it carefully. After a moment, a satisfied smile appeared on his face and he said, "Absolutely correct! Lin Yu, you passed the first stage!"

The spectators around them couldn't help but reveal expressions of surprise when they saw this scene. They had never expected that this seemingly unremarkable young man could be so good at identifying medicinal herbs.

"Who is this Lin Yu? He completed the identification so quickly, and it was completely correct!"

"Yeah, he looks so young. I wonder which sect he belongs to."

"This alchemy competition is truly full of hidden talents. I didn't expect such a dark horse to emerge."

……

Everyone was talking about it, and they were all surprised and curious about Lin Han's performance.

Lin Han didn't care about the discussions around him. He smiled faintly and returned to his seat, waiting for the start of the second stage.

Soon, the demon also finished identifying the herbs. He looked at Lin Han, a cold light flashing in his eyes. Lin Han also noticed his gaze, but did not care.

Afterward, Yun Qingxue finished identifying the herbs and breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she glanced at Lin Han, who had already finished identifying them, and muttered to herself, "I didn't expect... Inspector Lin is so skilled at identifying herbs. He's truly a hidden talent."

Lin Han noticed Yun Qingxue's slightly surprised look. He smiled slightly and nodded at her as a greeting.

Yun Qingxue blushed upon seeing this and quickly turned her head away, but her heart was stirred. She found herself developing an inexplicable fondness for this man.

Lin Han looked at Yun Qingxue's actions and couldn't help but shook his head, thinking secretly: "This girl...could it be that she likes me?"

Thinking of this, Lin Han couldn't help but feel a headache, and sighed in his heart: "Being handsome is really annoying."

[(;?_?) Host, could you please stop being so Versailles...]

Hearing this, Lin Han smiled awkwardly and said, "Sao Rui, Sao Rui."

at this time,

"The time has come, the first round of competition is over."

With Zhao Feng's announcement, the first round of the medicinal herb identification competition officially concluded. Numerous alchemists paused their actions, awaiting Zhao Feng's judgment.

Zhao Feng stepped forward, glanced at the crowd, and then announced, "After our evaluation, the results of the first round of medicinal herb identification competition are out."

"Congratulations to Lin Yu and the other ten alchemists for successfully passing the first round of the competition!"

When Lin Han heard his name being called out, he felt nothing in his heart.

When the demon heard his name being called out, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He looked at Lin Han with a sneer on his face, as if he was plotting something.

Lin Han also noticed the gazes of the demons, but he didn't care.

He guessed that this demon was definitely preparing to "cause trouble" in the next round of competition.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth curled up in a playful arc, and he said to himself: "Haha... Since you want to make trouble, then I will play with you for a while."

The second round of the alchemy competition soon began. Zhao Feng took out a recipe for an elixir and handed it to everyone, saying, "This is the elixir you're going to refine—the Qi Gathering Pill. Now, it's up to you all to demonstrate your alchemy skills."

The Qi Gathering Pill is a relatively common elixir, primarily used to enhance a cultivator's cultivation. Although its grade isn't particularly high, it's a crucial indicator of alchemists' skill.

Lin Han took the recipe, glanced at it, and memorized the contents. This kind of elixir was a piece of cake for him.

The demon had a gloomy face as he prepared the herbs, but he seemed a little absent-minded. He would glance at Lin Han from time to time, as if looking for an opportunity.

Lin Han naturally noticed the demon's gaze, but he didn't care. He already had a plan in mind, ready to teach this demon a lesson during the alchemy process.

Soon, all the alchemists prepared the herbs and began to refine the Qi Gathering Pill. The entire Danling Hall was filled with a rich medicinal fragrance that made people feel relaxed and happy.

Lin Han stood before the alchemy furnace, his demeanor composed. His hands danced swiftly over it, as if playing a beautiful piece of music. Under his control, the flames were sometimes violent, sometimes gentle, extracting the essence of the medicinal herbs bit by bit.

The alchemists around him couldn't help but show surprise when they saw Lin Han's skillful alchemy skills. They didn't expect that this seemingly young alchemist could have such superb alchemy skills.

The demon clan member had a gloomy face. He secretly urged his demonic energy to try to interfere with Lin Han's alchemy. However, as soon as his demonic energy approached Lin Han, it was repelled by an invisible force.

"What..." The demon was shocked. He hadn't expected Lin Han to be able to withstand his demonic energy. He couldn't help but feel a little angry, but there was nothing he could do. He could only continue to refine his own medicine.

"Haha..." Lin Han's lips curled up in a teasing arc, muttering to himself, "You want to interfere with me, little guy? You're still a little naive."

at the same time,

In a secret room in Danling Palace.

"City Lord Lu, who is this Lin Yu?" An old man with white hair and a youthful face took a sip of tea, looked at Lin Han's figure in the light curtain in front of him, and asked Lu Yuanqing who was standing next to him.

"I'm sorry, Senior Dan Sheng, I can't reveal this person's identity to you for now." Lu Yuanqing bowed and apologized. "I'll let you know after he leaves Danling City."

"Oh? Interesting." Dan Sheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that Lin Yu's identity was so mysterious that even Lu Yuanqing didn't dare to reveal it easily.

"Since City Lord Lu said so, I won't ask any more questions." Dan Sheng smiled slightly and said, "However, this Lin Yu's alchemy skills are quite good and worthy of my attention."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanqing couldn't help but feel relieved.

This old man is the president of the Danling City Alchemist Association, the only saint-level alchemist master, Murong Xuan, known as the "Alchemy Saint".

Murong Xuan's attainments in alchemy were extremely high, and he was a renowned alchemy master throughout the Eastern Region. He rarely appeared in public, but whenever he did, he caused a sensation.
