Is he an amateur?

The next morning, I headed off to the same square as before for the second round.

After the first preliminary, we had heard the details of the second round.

It was another free for all, but this time it was testing something different.

This time, it was testing our ability to refine the most basic pills since this required the most basic skills an alchemist could have when refining pills.

The first round was about how one refined with flames.

The second round was actually about refining pills.

It seemed like they cared quite a bit about the fundamentals of alchemy.

But it was said that the basics were the foundations of all skills that one could gain, so it shouldn't be strange if they cared that much about the basics.

The second round was being held in groups of fifty, with only one person making it through in each of these groups.
