377 All That Matters Is Appearance
When all the materials were distributed to all the participants, their seats also changed.
Originally, they could still see other masked participants in the assessment hall. However, after the competition began, mechanical doors appeared around them to separate them.
During the competition, no one could see the other party’s work, and no one knew what they were using to operate it.
Only the audience in the live broadcast room and the invigilator who was walking around casually knew. This included ubiquitous robots and various surveillance equipment.
Su Bai raised his head and looked around. There was no theme in what kind of thing was to be created.
However, in Alchemy, only those who could refine the most useful thing could be considered to have won.
The results were not announced right from the start, but through the live broadcast, one could see how creative one was.
This was the reason why the audience would take a fancy to the participant as soon as the competition started. If the participant’s creativity was great, there will be families ready to contact the participant they like.
Su Bai did not make a move, but the popup comments in the live broadcast slowly increased.
[Why is there still someone who hasn’t made a move yet?]
[Number 33 is here to be a bystander?]
[However, the competition this time is indeed a little difficult. It is normal to think more, but it has already been five minutes, and the other party still hasn’t moved.]
[Forget it. Number 33 has the best figure and is the most stylish person here. It feels like he’s the noob here.]
[Look, Number 96 is going to create something good!]
[D*mn, is he planning to use these scrap metals to create small robots?]
[Number 83 wants to create a small bomb with scrap metal?]
[I remember that the competition said that if the appearance is useful, there will still be no results. If the small bomb is not powerful, you won’t even get a good score.]
[Damn, I was in the top ten of the last batch of exams, but I feel that this competition is a little too much.]
The participants could not see the popup comments in the live broadcast. They were all doing their things seriously.
Su Bai finally figured out how to use these things to create his formula. First, he condensed the dye into a solid form.
When the dye turned solid, Su Bai suddenly realized that the dye was too little. No matter if it was the dye or the materials, the participants could not ask for refills during the competition.
Su Bai sighed, ‘It seemed that I could only make the thing I wanted to make smaller.’
Su Bai looked at the copper and iron and thought it was enough, but they were pretty useless.
There was a total of one million audience watching the live broadcast of the competition. Almost every participant had a few viewers.
What Su Bai did not know was that the number of viewers in his live broadcast was the least.
[This little brother’s hands are really beautiful!]
[While others are focusing on Alchemy, Number 33 is focusing on making mud.]
[What a joke. It’s a daily life of kneading mud in a world-class competition.]
[Let’s go, let’s go. This is too much. Since you’re here to take the exam, at least treat yourself well!]
Besides the audience in the live broadcast, the invigilator of the assessment hall also came to Su Bai and took a few glances. Then, the invigilator shook his head and left.
Eight minutes had passed since the start of the competition. Participant Number 66 had already completed the prototype and refined a pistol using copper and iron. The next step was to make bullets.
If the bullets did not have any offensive power, the production of pistols would be equivalent to a pile of toys made by Alchemy.
In the Alchemy industry, there was no shortage of people who could refine toys. It could be said to be a useless trait.
Su Bai looked at the dye in his hand and thought it was already usable. Thus, he began to use the remaining copper, iron, and wood to refine the shape.
At this moment, there were less than ten minutes left.
[F*ck, I think Number 9 refined a cannon!]
[Number 15 actually used the crystal to create a robot.]
[I feel that copper and iron are useless. Crystals are the main raw material.]
[Look, Number 66 really created a pistol!]
[And the robot Number 98 looks even cooler!]
Most of the participants in the competition were using crystals to create things. After all, whether it could be effective or not depended on the crystals used.
However, no matter how well one created it, once it could not fuse with the crystal, it would not have any effect. It was completely different for Su Bai.
The patriarch of the Yadi family was also watching Su Bai’s live broadcast seriously.
There were only ten viewers in Su Bai’s live broadcast, but the Yadi family took up three-tenths of the total.
Su Bai’s crystal was not a real one but a replica.
Everyone’s corresponding number had been confirmed long ago.
Of course, the only people who knew the inside story were the decision-makers of the competition.
When there were only nine minutes left in the match, The patriarch of the Yadi family realized that Su Bai finally realized that the crystal in his hand could not do anything.
This way, the patriarch of the Yadi family would not have to report Su Bai for cheating.
There was nothing wrong with Su Bai’s bracelet, but his mask had been covered with a layer of mechanical objects.
In other words, this kind of mechanical object would not be discovered by the detector outside.
Once the patriarch of the Yadi family found out that Su Bai could create something good, he would report Su Bai for cheating.
If Su Bai could not create something good, he would be mocked and even thrown into prison because there was something wrong with the materials in Su Bai’s hands.
It was a great sin. No matter where Su Bai went, even in every corner of the world, no one would choose him.
Of course, those who wanted to go against the Alchemy organization were exceptions.
The patriarch of the Yadi family sneered and thought that Su Bai was finished for sure.
When the patriarch of the Yadi family moved his eyes away from Su Bai’s live broadcast, he found that Su Bai had created something similar to the Crystal Maker.
The Crystal Maker could devour fake crystals and reform them into real crystals.
A few people who had nothing better to do and came to watch Su Bai’s live broadcast watched the instrument Su Bai created.
The Crystal Maker swallowed the thing that looked like a crystal, but it was not a real crystal, and spat out a real crystal!
Su Bai rubbed his chin and thought, ‘It’s still pretty.’
The audience who occasionally came to watch the live broadcast was instantly dumbfounded.
[How did he do it?!]
They could understand if it was robots, guns, cannons, and so on. But creating a Crystal Maker was an entirely different thing. Also, it was pretty.
The patriarch of the Yadi family could not sit still anymore. Naturally, he could not report it himself.
The patriarch of the Yadi family quickly picked up his phone and said, “Call the competition supervisor. Number 33 cheated in the competition!”
After receiving the mission, the other party picked up the phone without hesitation and said, “Hello, I’m reporting Participant Number 33 for cheating during the assessment!”
International competitions like this had strict requirements for cheating. From the moment the invigilator received the call to the moment he appeared in front of Su Bai, it took less than a minute.
