BOOOOOOOM!
The 14th contestant to blow through all four portions of her ingredients sighed and shook her head.
They had all tried hard, but they were just not there yet. Extracting the essence from the ingredients was within their control, as all 14 succeeded on that front.
They even went further and burned some impurities from the essence extracted. Looking from the perspective of a Pill God, they had done rather well.
Nobody laughed at them for blowing through their ingredients. Just being able to extract the essence from God-grade herbs is an achievement already worthy of praise.
However, the problems started when they tried to condense the pill. It was just way beyond their control, and so they met one failure after another.
Even Kent blew through two portions.
The first one was out of his control, and so he could only cough up smoke after it was done. However, that explosion taught him a lot, and so on his second trial, he managed to go beyond it.
