The subsequent rankings were announced one by one.
Fourth and fifth places were taken by two other Sword Masters.
Sixth, seventh... down to thirty-sixth place.
The first round of the competition would eliminate half of the participants.
Out of 72 alchemy prodigies, only half, or 36, would advance to the second round.
At that moment, Elder Mu stood up and announced loudly, "The first round, the battle of Fire Control, has ended."
"The second round of the competition will be called Random Refining."
"The location is beneath the Medicine Tower."
"The top 36, follow me."
"The bottom 36 may join their elders to watch."
"Or they may leave Medicine King Valley now."
After saying this, Elder Mu turned and led the way.
Xiao Yi, Jie Mo, and the other top 36 followed him.
As for the bottom 36, although reluctant, they still followed.
Even though they missed the second round, going there to learn was still beneficial.
After all, their trip to Medicine King Valley was not in vain.
