"How are these new disciples performing?"
After returning to the Soul Palace, Xiao Mu learned everything that had happened during the time he was away.
"Their innate soul power levels are not very high, and their soul power cultivation speed is relatively average, but their soul cultivation techniques are relatively smooth. Especially the little guy with the original martial soul, he is particularly outstanding in cultivating soul techniques."
Qianqiu Suidao is responsible for teaching these new disciples.
"Um."
The recruitment criteria for these disciples is to meet the requirements for cultivating soul power, so this kind of performance is normal.
Xiao Mu said, "You go down first. Bring the little fellow with the true martial spirit here tomorrow."
"yes."
After Qian Qiusui left, Huo Yuan reported:
"Palace Master, after you left, the second pill auction went on as scheduled. According to your instructions, this time we also included the fourth-level Soul-Breaking Pill, and the total revenue was 34 million Gold Soul Coins."
The amount of Gold Soul Coins obtained from this auction was more than twice that of the first time. This was not only because there was an extra fourth-level Soul-Breaking Pill, but also because the number of first to third-level Soul-Breaking Pills provided this time was also a little higher, and they were auctioned separately.
After gaining a general understanding of some of the more important matters, Xiao Mu said to Yang Wudi who was present:
"Yang is invincible."
"I'm here."
"From now on, you will be the guardian of the Soul Palace."
"Thank you, Palace Master."
Yang Wudi knew that the incorporation of the Pozhi Clan into the Soul Palace was different from being a subsidiary of the Haotian Sect before, and he had long been prepared to become a part of the Soul Palace.
Huo Yuan on the side looked at Yang Wudi a few times. After all, he was the third guardian of the Soul Palace.
Yang Ziqi has not returned yet, otherwise, he would probably be the one who pays the most attention to Yang Wudi.
They are both weapon spirit masters, and their spirits are both gun spirits. They even have the same surname.
If their martial spirits were not completely identical, Yang Ziqi would probably have suspected that Yang Wudi was his descendant.
"Dugu Bo, Ye Lingyun, follow me."
The two people whose names were called were cheered up and thought to themselves: It's finally here.
"By the way, Yang Wudi should come too."
"yes."
Yang Wudi was not a talkative person. Although he had doubts, he just followed silently.
Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun looked at Yang Wudi at the same time. Zhan Kaishan had briefly introduced Yang Wudi to them. They all knew that he was a soul master with the ability to fight beyond his level.
The palace master wanted to test the two of them, but asked Yang Wudi to follow. Could it be that Yang Wudi also had a talent for alchemy?
This speculation made Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun pay more attention to the upcoming assessment.
The moment he entered the alchemy room, Yang Wudi's eyes lit up.
The fragrance of the elixir lingered at his nose. Yang Wudi, who was very familiar with medicinal herbs and even their properties, could even roughly guess the effect of the elixir from the fragrance.
"Palace Master, is this the place where the elixir is made?"
"That's right." Xiao Mu turned to Dugu Bo and the others and asked:
"Have you mastered the three kinds of elixirs I taught you?"
Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun have been working day and night during this period, spending almost all their time on refining pills.
The success rate of their refining of the three first-grade elixirs has been greatly improved, and there is basically no possibility of failure in refining.
But they still did not relax, striving to improve the pill production rate and pill quality.
"I have lived up to the Palace Master's high expectations and have mastered the refining of these three kinds of elixirs."
Xiao Mu nodded, indicating that the two could start refining the elixir.
Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun were already familiar with refining these three kinds of elixirs. They each selected an elixir furnace and began to refine the elixirs smoothly.
Yang Wudi kept watching the two people's operations, and even blinking had to speed up.
"Want to learn alchemy?"
Suddenly, Yang Wudi heard Xiao Mu's voice coming from beside him.
He quickly averted his gaze, his throat moving slightly.
After discovering that this was a place for alchemy, Yang Wudi had some guesses, but he still didn't dare to have too high expectations.
After all, he had just joined the Soul Palace. How could such a precious thing as alchemy be taught to him so easily?
But after hearing Xiao Mu's words, Yang Wudi couldn't help but be moved.
Apart from his spear skills, Yang Wudi was only interested in making medicine. Now that the alchemy technique that was countless times more powerful and magical than that of the Poyi clan was right in front of him, how could Yang Wudi not want to learn it?
"I...I want to learn."
Yang Wudi's voice sounded a little hoarse as he honestly expressed his thoughts.
"Then you should watch them carefully. When they finish refining the pills, it will be your turn. Observe every step carefully. If you succeed in refining a batch of pills, I will teach you the art of alchemy."
After these words were spoken, Yang Wudi dared not blink anymore.
He stared at the two people's movements intently, not daring to miss any details.
Xiao Mu folded his arms and watched.
Among these three people, Xiao Mu is actually most optimistic about Yang Wudi.
Therefore, Xiao Mu did not directly teach Yang Wudi the three pill recipes, but wanted to see whether he could master the refining of a pill based on his own observations.
Within ten minutes, Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun successfully refined a furnace of Soul-Breaking Pills.
Dugu Bo produced five pills, while Ye Lingyun produced four pills. In terms of quantity, Dugu Bo was slightly better.
However, among the five pills refined by Dugu Bo, only one had three patterns, while among the four Soul-Breaking Pills refined by Ye Lingyun, two had three patterns. In terms of quality, Ye Lingyun won.
Next, they successfully refined the remaining two kinds of pills with skill.
"Not bad, you passed."
After hearing Xiao Mu's comments, the two people who had been tense for so long were finally able to relax completely.
But at this moment, they heard Xiao Mu say to Yang Wudi:
"It's your turn now. After watching for so long, do you think there's any kind of elixir you can refine?"
Yang Wudi didn't dare to brag and said cautiously:
"I can't guarantee whether I can successfully refine it, but I have some insights into the first type of elixir, and perhaps I can refine it."
Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun both looked at Yang Wudi.
When they received the elixir formula and refining method from the soul of the Palace Master, one of them failed completely the first time, and the other also failed mostly.
They were extremely skeptical about Yang Wudi's claim that he could refine the Soul-Breaking Pill. If they saw them refining the pill once and found that they could do it, it would definitely be a huge blow to them.
Under the gaze of the two, Yang Wudi held his breath and concentrated, and soon entered a state of oblivion of both himself and the world.
He also needed to concentrate when making medicine, so the moment he touched the alchemy furnace, he felt a sense of familiarity and quickly got into the state.
The alchemy operations of Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun flashed quickly through Yang Wudi's mind. Without any hesitation, he began to refine this batch of Soul-Breaking Pills.
"this..."
"he..."
Dugu Bo and Ye Lingyun gradually widened their eyes.
Even if Yang Wudi started refining the pill according to any one of their methods, they would not be so shocked.
But Yang Wudi seemed to have combined the alchemy methods of both of them, discarded their personal habits, and instead incorporated some of his own understanding.
