Chapter 269: Stay Still
As long as the formation is broken, and successfully walked out of the Thousand Medicine Formation, you can see the situation of others competing like other observing disciples, even though you are still in the Land of Inheritance.
After Guan Yiming emerged from the formation, he started searching for Jiang Yun’s whereabouts.
Because Jiang Yun dared to say in front of so many people that his character was too inferior, after the competition, Guan Yiming planned to teach him a lesson.
Before he could find Jiang Yun, he saw someone breaking out of the formation just after him, naturally drawing his attention to this person.
At first glance, he couldn’t help but show a hint of surprise on his face!
Standing beside him was none other than Xiao Zheng!
He never imagined that the Xiao Zheng, who he had just mocked, was still just a third-grade learner after five years, yet was only slightly slower in identifying medicinal herbs.
However, quickly the surprise on Guan Yiming’s face was replaced by indifference, and he even let out a disdainful snort.
After all, this first round only tested the basics of medicine, with more rounds to come.
Especially the last round is where true skills in medicine will be tested.
Winning this first round doesn’t prove anything.
But regardless, the performance of Xiao Zheng breaking through right after Guan Yiming stunned many onlooking disciples.
Even Mei Bugu opened his eyes and showed a rare moment of satisfaction.
However, compared to her, Yang Shizhong’s face started to look ugly.
Because his disciple Li Changlin hasn’t identified at least thirty types of herbs so far.
He initially thought Li Changlin and Xiao Zheng were not too far behind in the path of herbal medicine, but he didn’t expect the distance to have grown so large.
Helplessly, Yang Shizhong could only console himself, saying, "Luckily, I made preparations in advance!"
After going on the field, Xiao Zheng completely ignored Guan Yiming beside him, instead searching for Xie Xiaoyong and Jiang Yun among the disciples.
Soon, he found Xie Xiaoyong.
Although Xie Xiaoyong’s identification speed wasn’t fast, it was definitely not slow either.
Being among the top performers, passing this first round shouldn’t be a problem.
However, when Xiao Zheng’s gaze fell on the motionless Jiang Yun, his expression suddenly became strange, "Is Brother Jiang deliberately trying to hide his abilities?"
"Or maybe, he is only good at controlling spirit qi and making medicine, but has not spent time studying the properties of medicinal materials?"
Xiao Zheng has seen Jiang Yun’s control over spirit qi and heard about Jiang Yun making Heaven Level pills.
However, it is not certain whether Jiang Yun has spent time studying medicinal materials, which is why Xiao Zheng is thinking this way.
This is not just random thoughts, because there are many pharmacists who do not focus on the basics, and they are not few.
These Demon Refiners do not want to spend time memorizing the characteristics of various medicinal materials.
Just like many cultivators who do not want to practice controlling spirit qi during the Meridians Unclogged stage.
Because when refining medicine, as long as they prepare all the necessary medicinal materials according to the pill formula and familiarize themselves with it beforehand, they can successfully make the pills.
Therefore, Xiao Zheng naturally starts to worry about Jiang Yun in secret.
If he can’t even pass this first step, then no matter how strong Jiang Yun is in other aspects, it’s useless.
But now, even though he was worried, he couldn’t do anything to help. He could only hope that his guess was wrong, and Jiang Yun could quickly break the Thousand Medicine Formation.
As time passed, more and more disciples broke the formation one by one. But compared to the number of people participating in the competition, they were still only a small part.
Li Changlin and Xie Xiaoyong had also come out one after another. When they saw Jiang Yun, they were both surprised.
Xie Xiaoyong immediately looked at Xiao Zheng. Xiao Zheng smiled helplessly at her and shook his head.
After a moment of surprise, Li Changlin suddenly looked pleased. He didn’t forget to introduce Jiang Yun’s identity and background to the disciples around him who had also broken the formation.
When Elder Han explained Jiang Yun’s identity earlier, they had already entered the Land of Inheritance, so they basically didn’t know Jiang Yun at all, not from the same sect.
Now, after hearing Li Changlin’s introduction and learning about Jiang Yun’s identity, these people naturally showed different reactions.
Some were sympathetic, some were mocking, some were puzzled.
Of course, there were also those like Guan Yiming, who looked at Jiang Yun with disdain and chose to ignore him directly.
This type of outsider cultivator from the Non-Medicine Dao sect is not worth his attention at all.
Seeing that only one-tenth of the incense is burning, probably around two thousand disciples have successfully broken through the formation and passed this first round.
The remaining five to six thousand disciples are still trapped in the formation.
Not only is the time left for them getting shorter and shorter, but also their hearts are getting more and more restless.
Almost everyone would occasionally look up at the incense above their heads, which is getting shorter and shorter.
This means that these five to six thousand people are very likely to be eliminated in the first round.
And among them is Jiang Yun!
However, Jiang Yun’s heart is not in turmoil.
Because up to now, he is still maintaining a calm posture, holding the first type of medicinal herb.
"So this is what they call talent, right? It’s really making me laugh!"
"Just now, I thought that Jiang Yun may not be able to pass this first round, but at least he should be able to identify dozens of medicinal herbs, right? But unexpectedly, he couldn’t even recognize one."
"He was mocking Martial Brother Guan’s character earlier, hmph, I think he’s just pretending to be knowledgeable. Clearly he doesn’t know anything about medicine, but pretends to have talent. That’s the real bad character!"
Most disciples, whether watching or already breaking through the formation successfully, were not shy in ridiculing and mocking Jiang Yun.
However, some people had doubts in their hearts.
Even though Jiang Yun couldn’t recognize the first medicinal herb, there was no need to stubbornly hold on to just one!
There were thousands of medicinal herbs around him, he could totally choose other herbs to identify.
It’s impossible that he doesn’t recognize any out of a thousand medicinal herbs, right?
After all, even among the disciples who successfully broke through the formation, not everyone can identify every single one, there will always be some that they don’t recognize.
With this confusion, including Xiao Zheng and Xie Xiaoyong, including five heavenly pharmacists, including Elder Han.
Therefore, as they looked at Jiang Yun, their eyes showed a strange color, and no one could know what Jiang Yun was doing at the moment.
Just then, Jiang Yun, who had been standing there as if in a daze, suddenly moved!
He let out a long breath, and a smile appeared on his face, a smile that seemed to contain understanding and joy.
The appearance of a smile on Jiang Yun’s face naturally immediately drew everyone’s attention, and countless gazes focused on him at that moment.
Everyone wanted to see what else this Jiang Yun, who they had almost unanimously agreed knew nothing about medicine, could possibly do in less than one-tenth of the remaining time after the first round of the test!
Even Mei Bugu, opened his eyes again, staring straight at Jiang Yun.
Most of the gazes from so many people were filled with sneers and sarcasm, while only a few were filled with curiosity.
But there was one person whose gaze was filled with anticipation!
This person, is Xiao Zheng!
Among the more than 30,000 people in the Grand Medicine Sect, only he firmly believed in his opinion of Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun’s achievement in the way of medicine is absolutely strong!
He believed that when Jiang Yun didn’t move, he was calm, but once he moved, it would be amazing!
