Hearing this, Mu Zhiqing raised her eyebrows slightly, "What's the difference?"
"In the past, the alchemy exchange competition was conducted between first-year students, but this time the alchemy exchange competition is between first-year students and second-year students, which means that the difficulty of our competition has increased a lot."
"Why?"
"I heard that it was proposed by Fanchu Academy. Among their second-year students there was a very powerful alchemist named Li Wenyao.
In fact, Li Wenyao did not enter the college during the enrollment period, but entered the college midway.
Because his talent was so strong, he was admitted to Fanchu Academy under special circumstances. "
Nangong Xi nodded, "I heard that this person is already a fourth-grade alchemist at a young age. This time, Fanchu College suddenly proposed a request to modify the competition, allowing first-year students and second-year students to take the assessment at the same time. It must be for this reason. Li Wenyao has a chance to play."
Mu Zhiqing suddenly understood, "The college agrees to let Fanchu College suddenly change the rules like this?"
Since it is a tradition that has been passed down for so many years, it stands to reason that it should not be changed easily.
“Our academy is located in the Imperial City, where the headquarters of the Alchemist Guild is located, and the alchemists in the Alchemy Academy are also very capable.
Our college has won for three consecutive years. This time, Fanchu College finally had a good candidate and was convinced that it could get a good ranking, so it proposed to modify the method.
The college should have had certain considerations before choosing to agree. "Lu Qianxun explained.
Mu Zhiqing knew clearly that the two colleges were competing with each other and had won three times in a row. It was indeed difficult to refuse such a request from the other party.
"Wouldn't Yun Yan's pressure become even greater this time?"
Mu Zhiqing turned to look at Mu Yunyan. She had said before that she must get good results in this alchemy exchange competition.
Originally, with her strength, it shouldn't be a problem, but now that even second-year students have joined, the difficulty has been greatly increased, which is unfair to the first-year students.
Although everyone knew in their hearts that it was impossible for a first-year student to defeat a second-year student, most people only looked at the final result, which would ultimately be detrimental to Yunyan.
"Yes!" Mu Yunyan sighed with annoyance, "I didn't expect this situation to happen. It's really too difficult."
"What level of alchemist is Li Wenyao?" Mu Zhiqing asked.
"According to the information we have learned, he should have reached the fourth level of alchemist." Nangong Xi said.
Lu Qianxun nodded, "Fan Chu Academy did not directly report Li Wenyao's strength, so we also learned about it through other means. Whether it is accurate or not remains to be seen."
Mu Zhiqing nodded slightly. It seemed that Fan Chu Academy was really well prepared this time, hiding Li Wenyao's strength in order to catch everyone off guard.
"Xiao Qingqing, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get good results in this competition!"
The little goblin sighed. It originally thought that with Xiao Qingqing's strength, she would be able to excel in the alchemy competition, but in this situation, it might be really difficult.
"It doesn't matter." Mu Zhiqing said with a smile.
She is not very concerned about winning or losing. The exchange competition held by the college is a kind of healthy competition for practitioners.
In fact, even if she doesn't get excellent grades, it won't have any impact on her.
After all, it has now become a competition between second-year students, and their first-year students seem less important.
