End of the second round

After everything was said and done, Michael ascended to the air and returned to his seat in the VIP seats, leaving the participants and the spectators stunned. And he was thrilled with the number of badass points he received. Olivia was clapping and bouncing up and down in joy from the spectators.

Unlike the battle tournaments, the judges gave no break to the alchemists.

Clapping his hands again, Hendrix drew everyone's attention to him.

"Alright, since everyone has completed the test and witnessed what you can do when you increase your skills, let us start the second round. Please press the red button on the bottom right of the table,"

Hearing Hendrix, Noah moved his finger to the small round red button on the bottom right. 

As he pressed the button, the jade table suddenly trembled slightly. Then, the hole in the center disappeared as a pile of neatly stacked ingredients and a golden parchment slowly appeared on the clear, sleek table.
