The three examiners glanced at Old Yu and were puzzled . Although Old Yu always treated people amiably, the young man in red was only a 16-year-old, ah! Giving him so much courtesy and calling him Young Friend, it was difficult for them to fathom .
Moreover, from Old Yu's words and attitude, it seemed the youth could really refine elixirs at the Saint rank alchemist . Additionally, he was still a 16-year-old youth . All these had alarmed the great elder .
Needless to say, they now knew that the great elder must have been secretly observing the assessment here .

The young man in red captured their whole attention . They looked at him with astonishment .
The youth was handling the spirit herbs skillfully . His movements were graceful, neither tense nor slow . Their expression turned strange . Graceful? What made them feel that way? Even though the word graceful might not fit this place, it seemed that the youth's movements, expression and manner were full of elegance . This scene presented a picture that warmed their hearts and delighted their eyes .
The youth's handsome face showed a very focused look . His movements were delicate . Every time he raised his hand or made any motion, his sleeves would sweep lightly . It was like a painting and mysteriously made people feel calm .

Unlike what the three examiners noticed, Old Yu took note of Feng Jiu's skill in handling the spirit herbs and the order they were mixed . He also observed Feng Jiu's single-mindedness and self-confidence .
His eyes flickered over the spirits herbs on the table . His gaze flitted slightly . He wondered what kind of elixir this young man was going to make .
From Feng Jiu's method, he could see that he was indeed an alchemist . However, he didn't know what level of medicine would be produced . This youth was indeed not simple to make the grand elder take notice of him .

As time passed, the medicine was processed well . Feng Jiu began to extract the medicine's essence in the liquid form . If it was concocting pills, she was not sure to succeed in one try . But she had played with elixirs from childhood . It would not be difficult for her at all .
However, her method of refining medicine was not quite the same as theirs . The alchemists here processed the herbs by boiling them to extract the liquid, but she was extracting the essence of the elixir . At this point, the elixirs produced were different .
When Old Yu saw that Feng Jiu's method of extracting medicine was different from what he had expected, his eyes flashed with doubt . Unexpectedly, that young man then poured several kinds of medicinal liquids in succession, seemingly at will . After many steps, only half a small cup of light green elixir was extracted .
Feng Jiu ignored them . She was not afraid they learn her technique . She only concentrated on the task at hand . About two shichen later, she extracted the essence many times, ready for the final steps of blending the medicine .
Old Yu frowned at the pale green liquid in the transparent vials . He was baffled that the one Feng Jiu extracted was not the same green liquid as theirs . While he was still pondering this, he saw that the youth had mixed the remaining 20 cups of liquid medicine casually . His pupils shrank seeing that action that seemed too random . He felt that those medicinal liquids would repel each other when being mixed together . He's afraid this elixir would get destroyed!
But who would imagine that at exactly this moment, a rich and overwhelming fragrance of medicine filled the air . . .
