”Since I've answered the second question already, na the other party conceding the second question, Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered to continue lingering about the matter

”I admit defeat! These are already the twoa !”

Apothecary Jin Chen shook his head

The other party's action of listing out the names of so many books felled his confidence He knew that if he continued like this, the only one being eht as well surrender at this point At least he could retain so to ask the third question?”

Zhang Xuan was taken aback for ato a realization

Since he was able to easily answer the most difficult questions he could co hi Xuan was impressed with Apothecary Jin Chen's decisiveness

”It's your turn!”

He turned around to look at Lin Mu

Upon seeing Zhang Xuan's attention turned onto hiritted his teeth and asked, ”I have a question which, honestly speaking, I don't have an answer to either If you can't answer it, it won't be considered your defeat! However, if you can answer it, I will adht away It will be pointless even if I ask any further than that anyway!”

In the Pill Debate, the examiner had to know the answers to the questions they were posing Otherwise, when you don't even know the answer yourself, how can you determine whether the other party's answer is correct?

Now that Apothecary Lin Mu had confessed that he wasn't able to answer this question either, logically speaking, it was already beyond the boundaries of the Pill Debate Zhang Xuan could reject to answer his question

It wouldn't be considered his defeat if he chose to do so

”Speak!” Zhang Xuan casually said

'Reject? Are you kidding? Since I can anser questions, it is obvious that I should answer his question'

”I have been researching 【Meridian Expansion Pill】for a very long and regardless of the forging method, the medicinal herbs, or the cauldron, I double-check the with them But for some reason, I am unable to form the pill I would like you to tell me the reason forfor a moment

”What kind of question is this?”

”Aren't you being a little too difficult here!”

”That's right, you should find the reason behind why you're unable to successfully forge a pill yourself How do you expect him to answer that question out of the blue?”

……

Upon hearing Lin Mu's words, everyone was dumbfounded for a moment before peculiar expressions crept onto their faces

When posing a question during a Pill Debate, one had to ask so the other party how many moles you had on your body, how many meals you had yesterday, how many women you had relationshi+ps with… Even Gods would be unable to answer these questions!

Right now, Lin Mu's question was sie the Meridian Expansion Pill, how do you expect the other party to answer your query?

”Cough cough, Apothecary Lin Mu, you have to ask a question with basis behind it This question isn't suitable, you should switch to another one…”

Ouyang Cheng, as conducting the Pill Debate, couldn't stand looking at the situation any longer and spoke up

”I was being too rash…”

Upon hearing the words of the others, Lin Mu realized that his question was inappropriate Thus, he shook his head and just as he was about to say so Xuan beat him to it ”You weren't really rash How about this: you try to forge a Meridian Expansion Pill for h just your descriptions alone!”

”Alright!”

Lin Mu didn't expect the other party to agree Nodding his head, he walked over to the cauldron

Actually, he didn't intend to ask this question initially, it simply popped into his mind all of a sudden

Recently, he had been thinking of forging Meridian Expansion Pills, but for some reason, he was unable to succeed He had researchedtechniques, and everything he could think of, but his forging still ended in failure! Upon seeing Zhang Xuan pointing out thehi as he was able to find the mistake behind it, he was confident that with his skills he could successfully forge it
