Master Liu Guang's face was strange, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
When he saw Qin Chen's answer to the written test just now, he was instantly shocked, although he knew that Qin Chen might not be very strong in actual operation, but he still had some expectations in his heart.
But who would have thought that Qin Chen's actual operation would be so rotten.
The Fire Gathering Array is the most basic fire formation, and the first thing any alchemy apprentice should do when learning to refine medicine is to activate the Fire Gathering Array and form a formation.
Unexpectedly, Qin Chen couldn't even fully activate the Gathering Fire Array, which immediately disappointed Master Liu Guang.
"Haha, Qin Chen, I advise you to just give up the assessment, you can't even activate the Gathering Fire Array, and if you want to complete the assessment set by Master Liu Guang, it's completely impossible."
Shaking his head, Zhou Tao seemed to be kind to persuasion, but in fact, his heart blossomed.
What can I do with a full score in the first round of assessment, Master Liu Guang was so optimistic about this kid just now, hmph, who is the only genius today, presumably Master Liu Guang should know by now.
"Qin Chen, you retreat, the flames formed by the half-activated fire gathering array have only been activated, and it is impossible to divide the flames into three, let alone ... Ga? "
Chen Mu seized the opportunity, also stepped forward, shook his head and said, only halfway through the words, he suddenly choked in his throat, his eyes were about to fall, and he looked at Qin Chen in front of him, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Alchemist Chen Mu, what did you say?"
I saw that in front of me, the faint flame in Qin Chen's hand had been divided into three at this time, burning quietly, very stable.
"I ... I say... Ahem..."
Chen Mu cried with a sad face, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Let yourself be cheap, you have to go up and taunt it, now it's okay, get slapped in the face.
As soon as he said that half of the flames of the Gathering Fire Array had been activated, he couldn't divide the flames into three at all, and in the blink of an eye, the flames in Qin Chen's hand were separated.
This face is hot and too ruthless.
"Ahem, ahem!" His eyes rolled, resisting the urge to find a place to drill down, Chen Mu coughed twice, "I mean, the fire formation formed by activating only half of the fire gathering array is very weak, even if it can be divided into three flames, it can't be stacked into a ladder type, so ..."
Before the words fell, I saw Qin Chen gently urging his spiritual power, and the three weak flames in his hand that were separated actually moved quickly, one up and two down, forming a perfect triangular trapezoid.
"I ..."
His throat choked suddenly, and Chen Mu's eyes were about to fall off, and he was about to cry.
Big brother, can you stop playing with me like this?
My little liver can't stand it.
As soon as he said that such a weak flame could not be divided into three flames, it was divided into three flames in the blink of an eye, and then he said that it could not form a ladder type, and before he finished speaking, Qin Chen formed a ladder type of flame.
Chen Mu almost felt the urge to die here, this face was too embarrassing.
"It's impossible, how the hell did you do it? Definitely cheating. "
Next to him, Zhou Tao looked angry.
"The flames formed by activating only half of the Gathering Fire Array are very weak, and the amount of flames contained is only half of normal, how can it be possible to do this?"
Zhou Tao looked left and right, wondering if Qin Chen had done something somewhere.
This is simply counterintuitive.
"Who told you that you can't do this with only half of the flames formed by the Gathering Fire Array?"
Qin Chen asked rhetorically.
"This ..."
Zhou Tao is going crazy, do you still need to be told by others? It's the most basic common sense, okay?
"The Gathering Fire Array is only half activated, and the flames formed cannot be stabilized at all, so naturally they cannot be formed, let alone split the flames or superimpose them, this is common knowledge that any alchemist knows."
Zhou Tao snorted angrily.
"What kind of common sense is this?" Shaking his head speechlessly, Qin Chen said, "Then do you know how many formations there are on the fire gathering array in front of us?" "
"I'm not a formation mage, how do I know."
There is too much knowledge for an alchemist to learn, and he doesn't even have time to learn the knowledge of alchemy, so where is the time to learn what formations.
"You don't even know how many formations the Gathering Fire Array has, how do you know that you can't do this with only half of the formation activated?"
Hearing Zhou Tao's words, Qin Chen was speechless: "Let me tell you, the Fire Gathering Array on the refining platform in front of us belongs to the first-order Fire Gathering Array, which is composed of a total of one hundred and eight formations, and among them, there are thirty-six main formations and seventy-two secondary formations. "
"Among them, the main formation pattern controls the formation of the flame, and the secondary formation pattern controls the temperature and shape of the flame."
"That is to say, when an alchemist is refining the elixir, he only needs to activate the thirty-six main formation patterns to form a stable flame, and at the same time, the flame temperature and form can be controlled according to the number of secondary formations that can be opened."
"In this way, the spiritual power of the alchemist has been greatly liberated, so that when an alchemist is refining the elixir, he does not have to spend a lot of mental power on controlling the temperature and form of the flame, he only needs to choose how many formations to activate."
"And the current fire gathering array in front of me has activated a total of thirty-six main formations and eighteen secondary formations, in this case, the array is extremely stable, and it is very suitable for flame splitting, which is why I only activate so many formations."
"You don't even know this, and you're laughing at me? Doesn't it feel ridiculous? "
Qin Chen shook his head speechlessly, looking at Zhou Tao as if he was looking at a fool.
"It's just nonsense, I, Zhou Tao, have been studying fire control for so long, and I have never heard of such a theory, controlling the temperature and form of the flame by activating the number of formations, it's ridiculous, if that's the case, what do you have to do with the alchemist's spiritual power."
"Three masters, are you talking nonsense about this Qin Chen?" Zhou Tao said angrily.
Qin Chen was simply questioning the truth that the alchemist had always been, and he was only trying to cover up his cheating methods by doing so.
"This ..."
Chen Mu and Ouyang Cheng glanced at each other, to be honest, they hadn't heard the theory Qin Chen said.
Even Liu Guang was suspicious.
By activating the number of patterns, the temperature and shape of the flame are controlled, which ... It's a new concept.
There was no such record in any of the alchemy books they had studied.
"Isn't it nonsense that is very simple, the three masters just need to try it themselves."
Don't want to talk nonsense with this guy anymore, Qin Chen said lightly.
At the same time, Qin Chen complained again about the alchemy system of the Great Qi Kingdom, even what the three-year-old child in the Martial Domain Pill Tower knew, the three official alchemists present didn't know, and it was too lonely and unheard.
"Good!"
Liu Guang and the three of them glanced at each other, and at the same time came to the other refining tables to activate the fire gathering array above.
Rumble!
According to Qin Chen's theory, they first only activated the thirty-six main formation patterns above.
A flame appeared in front of the three of them at the same time.
"I actually activated the flames, and it was ... Very stable. "
This flame is very weak, darker in color, and less warm, but I have to admit that its structure is very stable, even if it is not controlled by mental power, it does not show any signs of collapse.
