Ye Mo saw that the judges had started looking at the jade slips . There were thousands of them, but it wasn't a huge workload for them .

Most contestants were discussing the questions at the waiting area .

Mu Yiqing squeezed through the crowd to get to Ye Mo and said, "Martial Brother Ye, how many did you recognize? I only recognized five . "

Ye Mo heard this and knew Mu Yiqing had been disqualified for sure . Five herbs and not even an recipe - there was no way Mu Yiqing was going to pass .

"You recognized five of them! I only recognized three," another contestant said with dejection .

"Yes, these herbs are too hard . We rarely get to see them at all . I've only recognized six," someone else said, but he was clearly satisfied with his result .

Ye Mo nodded . Six herbs were enough to form a simple recipe, but he was soon caught up in the conversation of others and eavesdropped .

"Martial Brother Cai, what were those spirit herbs? They were really uncommon," a beautiful woman in her thirties asked a man, who also didn't look very old . She looked very fond of him .

All the contestants around them stopped talking and formed a circle around the Martial Brother Cai, waiting to hear his answer .



Ye Mo studied this Martial Brother Cai . He didn't seem very old, but he was already at false core state . He was probably in his 40s to 50s, despite looking like he was in his 30s .

Seeing Ye Mo study this guy, Mu Yiqing said quietly, "He's Cai Sheng, the core disciple of the Heaven Pill Sect . He's only 49 . He's a famous pill concoction genius in the North Far State . He even ranked tenth on the pill concoction hall of fame!"

No wonder he was so popular! Ye Mo also wanted to hear how many herbs the guy had recognized .

Martial Brother Cai seemed very polite . He smiled and saluted with his fist, "This year's questions are a bit hard indeed . All the herbs on there were uncommon . To be honest, I don't think these questions can reflect a pill master's abilities . Some people are very good at pill concoction, but they weren't able to recognize these rare herbs . "

This immediately was confirmed by everyone . Some people were very good at pill concoction, but they didn't know many uncommon herbs . The test's questions weren't very good indeed . Ye Mo thought that guy was quite smart . His words had resonated with everyone . He got on everyone's good side without doing anything .

When the voices quietened down, Cai Sheng continued, "But we also need to be understanding with the Pill Association . There are too many contestants this time . A question like this is simple and can reach their goals in the shortest time . So those friends who have real skills don't need to mind it too much . You just need to know yourself that you're truly skilled . "

There was another round of applause from the people around him . Clearly, they all agreed .

Ye Mo realized the guy first had spoken for the contestants, and then spoken for the pill association's sake - he really knew how to react .

"Cai Sheng, stop saying good things! You've ended up saying good things for both sides . Now, we want to hear the answer to the question . You don't need to comfort us and then comfort the pill association!" a man said impolitely . Clearly, he didn't like the way Cai Sheng had spoken .



Cai Sheng wasn't angry at all . Instead, he smiled and said, "You're right friend . I was lucky enough to have read a book left behind by an Qianbei . Thus, I was able to recognize ten herbs . "

Ye Mo heard this and his heart sunk . Cai Sheng had recognized ten! He was so good . Yet, this guy had only ranked tenth in the pill concoction hall of fame . It seemed like it would be really hard for him to get into the top ten while conserving his real strength . Ye Mo just hoped that the next question didn't have content from Things on it .

Cai Sheng clearly hadn't read Things, but he could recognize ten herbs, which meant that there were really a lot of capable people in the cultivation realm . Of course, Ye Mo would never believe that Cai Sheng had just read some book left behind by a Qianbei . He didn't understand how the Heaven Pill Sect worked, but it was probably not a simple sect .

As soon as Cai Sheng said this, everyone was shook .

"Martial Brother Cai is so good! You managed to recognize ten . I think that even if you hadn't written the recipe, you would still pass . "

"I think Martial Brother Cai can improve and get into top three this time . "

"Martial Brother Cai, what were those ten herbs? What do they do?"

…

Just when Cai Sheng was about to speak, a sneer interrupted him . Everyone looked at where the sneer came from .

A woman in a pink dress said in contempt, "You've only recognized ten herbs? What's there to show off about?! Looking at you, I thought you would have recognized 12, or have made a heaven level pill recipe . "

Clearly, the pink-dressed female was targeting Cai Sheng . Those who wanted to defend Cai Sheng saw the sect logo on her clothes and shut their mouths . The Immortal Herb Valley wasn't something ordinary cultivators could mess with .

However, Cai Sheng wasn't angry . He saluted with his fists . "So it's Martial Sister Guang from the Immortal Herb Valley . My insubstantial knowledge made Martial Sister Guang laugh . I believe you've recognized 12 types of herbs . "

The pink-dressed lady said calmly, "Cai Sheng, you don't need to act like this . I've only recognized ten, but my Martial Sister recognized more than you . "

"This woman is called Guang Wei, she's from the Immortal Herb Valley . She ranked 17th on the pill concoction hall of fame, but her martial sister is famous . Qin Muxin, she ranked 22nd, but that was 10 years ago," Mu Yiqing explained to Ye Mo .

"Martial Sister Qin, come here," the pink-dressed lady waved her hand to someone in the distance .

A blue-dressed woman saw this and immediately walked over . She said to Guang Wei, "Martial Sister Guang, you-"

"Martial !ister Muxin, say the names of the 12 types of herbs . Otherwise, some people think they're number one in the world after just recognizing 10 . " Guang Wei then glanced coldly at Cai Sheng .

Cai Sheng smiled bitterly, but she didn't speak .

"Martial Brother Ye, this blue-dressed lady is Qin Muxin of the Immortal Herb Valley, a definite genius," Mu Yiqing said again .

Ye Mo studied Qin Muxin . She appeared to be in her 20s . Her new-moon-like eyebrows with her flower-like face seemed very peaceful, like a poppy in the depth of a valley . Her dark silky hair laid on her back with a few loose strands around her ear .

The first feeling she gave Ye Mo was that she was pretty, but she didn't like to talk . She wasn't cold, however . He just couldn't connect this serene water-like girl with the 5th cultivator on the foundation establishment state hall of fame .

Those on the foundation establishment state hall of fame weren't easy to mess with . How could they not have very powerful means? Was she really strong at fighting too?

Qin Muxin walked over calmly and said, "Martial Zister Guang, I could only recognise 11, not 12 . "

"11 is 11 . Still better than 10!" Guang Wei said .

Cai Sheng was like a gentleman . He walked up to Qin Muxin and saluted her with his fists . "Martial Sister Qin, please enlighten me . I will be very grateful . "

Qin Muxin nodded and said, "The ones I recognized were the Firefox Flower, the Earth Dragon Root, the Spirit Attraction Grass, the Moon Attraction Ice, the Yellow Wall Tail, the Socket Wood Skin, etc . "

Two of them were indeed in Things . It seemed there were quite a lot of knowledgeable people out there .

"I wasn't able to recognize the last one," Qin Muxin said .

"The last one was the Sea Mud Flowerless Weed," another voice said .
