Chapter 213: Scoring! The Amazing Time-Based Magical Potion!
Chapter 213: Scoring! The Amazing Time-Based Magical Potion!
"Magical potion development?" someone exclaimed in surprise to their companion sitting beside the television.
Obviously, even they hadn't expected it.
Magical potions, in the context of companion beast cultivation, weren't anything extraordinary. New potions didn't necessarily constitute an invention that would shock the entire world of breeders.
Usually, only when there weren't any particularly outstanding research results would they be submitted.
Apparently, this was the case for everyone.
Despite the potion's name, many people were still extremely interested.
And Su Ping was no exception.
Su Ping hadn't forgotten that Ye Zhou had previously expressed his eagerness to meet him on the competition stage.
What did this signify? Su Ping wasn't sure if Ye Zhou was aware of his cultivation results.
However, for someone to have such confidence and assurance in a potion development, it was clearly no ordinary creation!
On the television screen, a group of five figures emerged from backstage and appeared on the enormous platform behind the two hosts. Among them, the leading figure, Professor Wang, waved at the hosts and the main camera:
"Hello hosts, esteemed judges, Master Zhu Hong, and viewers from all over the country."
Among the three, Su Ping and Sun Chaoju watched with utmost attention.
The reason was simple; they had never been on television before, so it was crucial to familiarize themselves with the necessary procedures.
"This time, the delegation from the Capital City seems to be underwhelming. The Capital City Academy's magical potion and the delegation from the Capital City Breeders Association branch don't seem to have any remarkable research."
"Who knows? But the name sounds intriguing, doesn't it?"
In the backstage area, some people were whispering, evidently not paying much attention to the first delegation from the Capital City Academy.
After the brief greeting, Professor Wang, standing behind the testing platform, continued:
"The cultivation results we, the Capital City Advanced Beast Academy, are presenting today is this Time Elixir! It's a rare and unique time-based potion with various effects!"
As he spoke, his assistant and Ye Zhou behind him opened the silver briefcase.
Inside the case, six silver-white test tubes appeared before everyone's eyes and the camera lens of the filming crew.
Under the close-up, everyone saw the silver-white liquid in the box flowing like mercury, appearing mysterious and beautiful.
However, these words caused many hearts to stir.
A time-based potion?
This time, even the viewers who couldn't discern anything were stunned. The other breeders from across the country, who were also backstage, instantly focused their attention.
The reason for this heightened interest was that time-based potions were associated with mystery and rarity, and they often possessed various extraordinary abilities.
They could even produce effects beyond ordinary imagination.
The only question was, what were the effects of this Time Elixir?
The effects were soon revealed.
Professor Wang directly took out a bottle, opened it, and then, in full view of everyone, he plunged a blade into his own heart!
Blood gushed from his heart, instantly staining his white coat crimson.
Everyone was dumbfounded at that moment.
This wasn't a joke!
Such exclamations weren't limited to one or even thousands.
Everyone watching this breeding master competition couldn't help but cry out in shock.
Although some powerful healing companion beasts could theoretically recover from any injury except for a crushed head, the situation mattered.
Healing a heart injury was extremely challenging!
Even for beast masters, this was a fatal blow! No one expected that the first act of this New Year's Breeding Master Competition would be so explosive. It seemed like the show was heading towards a bloody direction.
The female host beside him, whose surname was Lu, instinctively spoke up, intending to summon a healing companion beast.
But Professor Wang, still alive, swallowed the Time Elixir.
And the remaining potion was poured directly onto the heart wound.
Then, in the next second, a scene that caused everyone, including Su Ping, to widen their eyes in disbelief, unfolded.
An indescribable ripple appeared, and then, although the world remained unchanged, the gushing blood from Professor Wang's wound vanished.
Even the crimson bloodstains on the white coat disappeared, leaving it spotless! It was as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.
An illusion that startled everyone!
But now, everything had disappeared.
Only the blood that had been spilled on the testing platform remained, proving that what had just occurred was definitely not an illusion.
How was this achieved? It was evident that this was the effect of the Time Elixir.
Professor Wang exhaled in relief, and Ye Zhou beside him smiled, stepping forward to explain:
"This is the first effect of the Time Elixir. It allows beast masters and some companion beasts to restore themselves to a state of perfect health before the injury by consuming the Time Elixir and expending a certain amount of energy."
Indeed, many people exchanged glances, and even the esteemed Master Zhu Hong at the head of the panel showed interest, immediately asking:
"Does the energy consumption apply to the life form using the Time Elixir or to others around them? And how far back in time can one be restored?"
Master Zhu Hong's question was truly insightful.
Ye Zhou continued, "Master Zhu Hong, the Time Potion restores the user's state based on the amount of energy consumed. The more energy consumed, the further back in time they can return. For a Tier 9 Overlord-grade Beastmaster using all their Psychic Power, they could potentially go back three days. However, after using the potion, there is a recovery period during which the Time Potion cannot be used again.
Any damage or changes inflicted on the user will be reversed by the Time Potion. However, learned skills and evolutions cannot be altered, but their power may be reduced based on the user's current state."
Master Zhu Hong nodded thoughtfully and praised, "Impressive!"
Indeed, it was impressive! Although the potion couldn't affect learned skills or evolutions, it could achieve such remarkable recovery.
It was even more remarkable than the so-called 'living dead' effect. Most importantly, it worked fast!
In just a few seconds, the effect was complete! However, behind the scenes, Su Ping was as if he had seen a ghost.
Damn it! This kid wasn't being honest! What was this bastard talking about yesterday?
Where was the permanent time regression effect he mentioned?
Although the Time Potion didn't truly reverse time, its effects were still impressive and could be referenced.
Yesterday, he spoke with such conviction, and today, he presented this?
Damn it! In this world, there are there are too few honest people like me!
However, at the moment when Su Ping was feeling indignant, it seemed there was more to come.
Professor Wang paused for a moment and then took out another bottle of Time Potion. "In addition to the time regression effect, the Time Potion has another ability!"
Everyone's eyes widened in surprise. They hadn't expected such a powerful move at the very beginning of this year's breeding competition.
It was a plant buried in the soil.
After seeing this, almost all the breeders present understood the power of the Time Water.
Indeed, it was as they had guessed.
Under the drip of Time Water, the unknown plant resource slowly grew. In just a moment, it became a plant as thick as an arm.
"Time Potion can accelerate the growth of plant-type resources. If used on a Spiritual Elemental Beast, refer to the previous effect.
Currently, one bottle of Time Water can accelerate the growth of a Sovereign-grade plant resource by approximately one-third of its total growth period!"
Ye Zhou smiled at the camera.
The ten judges exchanged glances. As breeders from various regions, they understood the significance of this demonstration.
Su Ping was also amazed by the effectiveness of this potion. If this were a xianxia novel, it would be the protagonist's cheat skill!
Before he could fully appreciate the moment, Master Zhu Hong spoke again, "If there are no additional ability effects to supplement, the Soul Judge can activate its ability!"
At that moment, a shadowy figure wearing a tall hat materialized before them.
Standing on the experimental platform, it calmly observed the group.
Soul Judge!
A special Spiritual Elemental Beast of the Imperial rank! Its sole purpose here was to verify the truthfulness of the speaker's words and the accuracy of their subsequent statements.
"Respected Master Zhu Hong, and fellow judges, the Time Potion's effect is as I have described.
The Soul Judge's body showed no abnormalities, confirming the veracity of their statements.
Master Zhu Hong nodded and then said, "Very well, you may now discuss the value score."
The value score and difficulty score were to be determined.
The higher the value score, the more effective the bred item, resulting in a higher overall score.
The difficulty score was based on the rarity of the resources required for breeding, with rarer resources resulting in a lower difficulty score.
With Master Zhu Hong's command, the previously quiet venue buzzed with discussion.
It was evident that the Time Potion's effect, as just demonstrated, was extraordinary.
Any fatal damage could be instantly cured with the Time Potion.

It could also accelerate the breeding of plant-type companion beasts, and its effectiveness was evident.
The discussion lasted for several minutes.
As the first experimental result of the competition, many were cautious, and some even looked at Master Zhu Hong, curious about his scoring.
Master Zhu Hong did not disappoint.
With a maximum score of 100, he gave an astonishingly high score in the first round:
95!
"95 points! Wow!"
Sun Chaoju exclaimed, surprised. In his experience, value scores rarely exceeded 90, and the scores given by the chief judge, the breeding master, were usually lower.
The scores given by the other judges were also impressive.
The scores of the ten ordinary judges were revealed to everyone present and the national audience:
95, 99, 93, 97...
The average score of the ten ordinary judges was an astonishing 96!
According to the rules of the breeding competition, the value score for this round was an astonishing 191 points!
However, everyone knew that the real challenge was yet to come: the difficulty score!
For a rare potion with such beneficial effects on Sovereign-grade plants, the resources required for its creation must be of the highest quality.
After the scores were calculated and displayed on the large screen, Master Zhu Hong continued, "Now, what are the main materials required for breeding, and what is the approximate value of the secondary materials?"
"Of course, the specific proportions and other auxiliary materials don't need to be mentioned in detail."
Every research achievement belongs to the personal property of the breeder, and the Breeder Competition also actively ensures that these formulas are not leaked.
"The main material for the Time Potion is the Sovereign Rank Time Essence, a half-drop of the Sovereign Rank resource, the Instant Healing Spring Essence. According to the complete Sovereign Rank resource evaluation standard, it's approximately one-tenth of a complete Instant Healing Spring Essence. However, due to the rarity of Time Essences, the value of the main material will be higher. Please evaluate the cost yourselves, teachers!"
As for the other auxiliary resources, there are no other Time Essences, and they are all low-grade resources worth around one million!"
Instant Healing Spring Essence!
This was the first time Su Ping had heard of this special Time Essence.
A half-drop of Instant Healing Spring Essence? Just a tenth of the total amount?
So, a complete Sovereign Rank resource is equivalent to five drops of Time Essence? Su Ping quickly calculated that the cost of just this one bottle of Time Potion was already close to ten million.
This is almost on par with the lowest-grade Sovereign Rank resources.
The value is not small at all!
Regardless, the value of the Time Essence is still quite impressive.
Such a price is within expectations.
The Soul Judge also remained unmoved, indicating the authenticity of the situation.
Zhu Hong nodded slightly and narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.
The Difficulty Rating was more challenging to evaluate than the Value Points.
However, regardless, it was evident that a Sovereign Rank resource would not receive a very high Difficulty Rating.
Indeed, this proved to be the case.
Amidst the discussions of the judges.
Under the gaze of countless Dragon Nation viewers, the top judge, Zhu Hong, was the first to announce his score: 65 points.
This score was not low; in fact, in many people's eyes, it was quite high.
At that moment, among the ten judges below, some even gave scores as low as 50 points and below.
Finally, the average score of the ten judges was locked at 59 points.
Combined with Zhu Hong's score, the total reached 124 points.
At the same time, representing the final score for the Beastmaster Team of the Metropolis Academy, it was locked at 315 points.
Professor Wang and the others could see that they were quite satisfied.
To receive such a high score for a magic potion in the Breeder Competition was already quite rare!
"Thank you, judges, and thank you, Master Zhu Hong! Also, to show our appreciation for this breeding competition, the remaining four bottles of Time Potion can be given away through a lucky draw organized by the program group, allowing all viewers to participate!"
The last sentence from Professor Wang made the majority of viewers in front of their televisions reach a climax.
A brand new magic potion.
The terrifying effects of the Time Essence!
If someone were to win this, not to mention using it, just reselling it would bring in millions, or even tens of millions!
This news instantly energized countless people, and the two hosts who had disappeared earlier quickly returned to the stage, taking the remaining four bottles of Time Potion from the silver briefcase.
The female host smiled brightly at the camera:
"Thank you to the teachers from the Advanced Beastmaster Academy of the Metropolis for showing us such an impressive magic potion! Thank you also for your generosity!"
So, what are you waiting for, viewers? Send a text message to..."
The male host added:
"You can also follow the Metropolis TV network media, and we'll be drawing lucky viewers from those who comment..."
Everyone sprang into action.
Even at the Wood Core, it was the same.
All employees, including Li Shu, took out their phones to participate in the draw.
As Li Shu participated, he muttered:
"This Metropolis Academy team is quite skilled! Is this score high or low? Can Ping win?"
Guan Lili, who had been paying attention to the Breeder Competition over the years, spoke up:
"Based on the standards of recent years, any score above 300 points is considered quite good in the history of the competition. This Time Potion scored 315 points, which is already a relatively high score!"
"So, is Ping in danger?"
"No way! The Ten Thousand Tree Wolf is a new evolutionary form with inherent advantages in such competitions! Believe in Ping!"
Guan Lili raised her small fist in support.
Ever since joining the Wood Core, Guan Lili had regarded Su Ping as an idol, and now she had even more confidence in Su Ping and his research.
Of course, while they talked, no one neglected to participate in the draw.
Just then, Professor Wang, Ye Zhou, and the others bowed to the camera and left the stage.
At the same time, the two hosts announced:
"Next, we have the breeding team from Xi Jing Province. They will present their breeding results on the special earth elemental and necromantic beast, the Terracotta Warrior, and its Battle Soul Skill..."
