Chu Ning moved with practiced ease, showing no sign of the tension that comes with competition.

Normally, a furnace of elixirs would yield ten pills, but under the competitive atmosphere of the match, to stand out, one would likely need to ensure at least fifteen.

Chu Ning didn't rush to ignite the flame, but instead glanced around and noticed, just as he had expected, that the other alchemists had all added extra materials.

However, these were all Qi Condensing first grade alchemists, whereas those at the Foundation Establishment stage remained content with ten portions of materials, clearly aiming for quality.

"Then let's make twelve."

Having added the materials, Chu Ning covered the furnace and stoked the flames.
