Inside the main hall, the presence of individual arrays allows the brewers to be free from any external influences and concentrate on brewing.

The examiners on the stage could see the winemaking process of each winemaker at a glance.

However, the owner of Wangyuelou and the head steward, Mr. Qian, were far less skilled in brewing than the chief brewer, Mr. Li.

Therefore, Mr. Li was looking at the exam more carefully, while the former was chatting with the other examiners.

A day passed quickly, and the brewers successively completed the brewing of Baihua Wine and began to brew Yipingsheng Wine.

Although Xu Chu wasn't the fastest, he was still among the top.

Mr. Li on the stage noticed this.

"This young brewer from Qingzhou looks unfamiliar. He must have just arrived in recent years," Old Li asked, puzzled.

Old Qian nodded. "I know that. Qingzhou did change its brewer a few years ago."

Old Li looked approving. “This young man is very good. He is very skilled in brewing Baihua wine. Just looking at the brewing of this wine, he is no less than any veteran winemaker.”

The owner of Wangyue Tower chuckled, "There aren't many winemakers who can earn Elder Li's approval."

As the chief winemaker of Wangyuelou, Master Li's expertise and dedication to winemaking are unmatched by any other winemaker.

So after he praised Xu Chu, not only the owner of Wangyue Tower and the head steward, Qian Lao, but also the other examiners on the stage all turned to look at Xu Chu.

Xu Chu, who was completely absorbed in brewing wine, was unaware that he had already caught the attention of the bigwigs.

Time passes day by day.

With so many people present, none of them were weak, so let alone a month, even a year would be just a blink of an eye for them.

Especially these powerful individuals who serve as examiners on the stage, each time they go into seclusion, it takes decades or even centuries.

This month went by very quickly for them.

With one day left before the end of the assessment, winemakers began to complete the brewing process.

After completing the brewing process, they activated the magic circle around themselves.

The aroma of the wine gradually spread out, filling the entire hall with the fragrance of the two spirit wines, Hundred Flowers Brew and Remembering Life.

"It's finally finished brewing. I didn't expect it to be half a day faster than I thought."

"Normally, it takes me a month and a half to brew a batch of 'Remembering My Life,' but this time I finished it in just one month. It turns out that brewing also requires a certain amount of pressure to improve."

"Oh no!! How could I have made a mistake in one step! This is terrible, I'm definitely going to be ranked last."

Brewing spirit wine is the same as alchemy and weapon crafting; both can fail.

The assessment results of Wangyuelou have a great impact on each winemaker, so the pressure is immense.

Normally, brewing a batch of "Remembering Life" takes more than a month, but this time the requirement is to complete it within one month.

Winemakers who are not very familiar with this wine are more likely to make mistakes under pressure, leading to brewing failures.

This means that their rating for this spirit wine must be the lowest possible.

They will also be among the last in this assessment.

For the next fifty years, they will be assigned to work in resource-poor continents, where they will receive the lowest level of resources and benefits among all the brewers.

So the winemakers who failed to brew were all depressed and disheartened, but there was nothing they could do.

This is the purpose of the assessment.

The point is to make these brewers understand that becoming a brewer at Wangyuelou doesn't mean they can rest easy and do nothing.

To get better resources and treatment, you need to keep working hard and improve, and surpass other winemakers.

After the stipulated one-month period ends, all magic arrays will automatically open. At this point, even if some brewers have not yet finished brewing, they must stop and are considered as incomplete.

At this moment, Mr. Qian announced loudly: "The assessment is over. Those brewers who have not completed the brewing or whose brewing has failed, please step back."

After she finished speaking, several winemakers lowered their heads and walked to the back.

It's truly embarrassing that, not only was the score low during the assessment, but the brewing process wasn't even completed.

In addition, with so many people watching, including brewers and managers, he felt quite embarrassed and wished he could just leave.

Of the one hundred brewers, twenty-three had moved to the very back.

They won't participate in the scoring; they'll be directly assigned to the continents with the fewest resources.

Upon seeing this, Chief Winemaker Li frowned slightly.

"The questions in this assessment were indeed a bit difficult, but that is no excuse for your failure. I hope that you will all dedicate yourselves to the study of winemaking and improve your winemaking skills in the next fifty years."

If there weren't so many people present, and to save face for them, Old Li might have said something even harsher.

After all, these are all brewers from Wangyue Tower, the most skilled brewers in the Tianyuan Realm.

It failed to brew even with a time limit added.

This shouldn't be the case.

Old Li said, "The remaining seventy-seven people will continue the assessment. The first to be evaluated is the Hundred Flowers Wine."

He glanced at Mr. Qian, who nodded slightly and continued to maintain control of the room.

Once the brewing is complete, the next step is the scoring process, with scores ranging from a minimum of 50 to a maximum of 100.

First up is Baihua Niang, a basic spirit wine.

The spirit wines that the brewers had finished making were sent one by one to the high platform, where they were evaluated by eleven examiners who gave each one a score.

After the scores are calculated, the highest score will be removed, and the remaining scores will be added together to get the final score.

The Hundred Flowers Brew is a spirit wine that the brewers make frequently, so the difference in their skill levels is very slight, and the final score reflects this.

Most brewers scored around 900, while Xu Chu scored 945.

Xu Chu made a special note that his score was high enough to rank him in the top ten among the seventy-seven brewers.

Even if this is only the rating for the first spirit wine.

But no brewer had ever achieved this ranking in their first assessment after joining Wangyuelou.

Mr. Li and Mr. Qian, who also noticed this, couldn't help but take another look at Xu Chu, and were very curious about his final ranking.
