Mr. He was at a loss of words, and the expression on his face changed, then went back to how it was after a while. He chuckled softly and said, "Since Mr. Qi you've said that, then we shall do it that way then!"
After that, he looked at Artur and said, "The examination hall is an important venue. We won't allow you all to do anything as you wish. Please wait outside!"
"Ah, but-" Artur was a little shocked
Zoella, who was standing on a side, said, "Artur, since the Master had already said this, you should wait then. Also, that kid surely wouldn't pass the exams, and he'd surely be kicked out after one round. It may not take too long."
"Yes, Miss!" Artur held his hands together and said. Then he waved his hands and asked his men to leave.
Seeing this, Devon turned around, looked at Fade, and said with a poker face, "The test is about to begin. Please be at ease and prepare yourself for the test."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Qi." Fade thanked him.
Devon waved his hand, with his face still cold. "You don't have to thank me. I'm just maintaining the order of the examination hall. I don't care what happened between you all."
After that, Devon turned around and walked into the examination room.
Fade also turned around and walked to the front.
Looking at Fade's back, Zoella's eyes were cold as she said in a low voice, "You scum, just you wait and see."
Fade followed the crowd into the examination hall.
As the examination hall for the one- star alchemists, this hall had the most participants.
Among them, there were many familiar faces, such as Zoella and Eva.
The content of the test was very simple. There were hundreds of kinds of herbs there, and they could choose any one as they wished, crafting a one- star rank pill in the time span of a candle's burn. After the judges verified them, then they would pass and be a one-star alchemist.
Because there were so many people, the candidates had to be divided into groups in the examination.
20 people were assigned in a group, entering the crafting room to take the test.
Fade was lined up at the back, so he could only wait for others to finish first.
They had to admit that although the one-star alchemist test was the easiest test among all the alchemy exams, still it made most of them scratch their heads.
There was no problem with the selection of herbs and the production of medicine, but there were problems in the process of refining medicine in the Magic Furnace. Almost 80% of the candidates had problems in this part and they failed in the end.
Fade understood the reason behind it. It was possible to choose the herbs, make the medicine, and boil the ingredients with proficiency.
However, in the process of refining medicine in the Magic Furnace, one had to rely on one's divine soul to control the materials and flames, hoping that all kinds of conditions would meet the requirements, and finally, the pill refinement would be completed.
Just that divine soul stopped a group of people from passing.
After all, it was difficult for many people to enter the Soul Refine Realm in their entire lives. They were unable to activate their own divine souls at all. Even if the divine soul was activated and they wanted to use his spirit to control the materials for the flame, the requirements were highly precise, and every single process had to be accurate, and that was too difficult.
Therefore, even for a one-star alchemy test, the test was still very difficult for most.
That could be seen from the candidate's success rate.
Before Fade, there had been a total of 100 candidates entering in five groups.
But in the end, there were only five candidates who successfully became one- star alchemists.
Just to be a one-star alchemist, the success rate was only 5%, and it could be seen how difficult the test was.
Just like that, groups of candidates kept entering and leaving the medicine refining room.
When one group of candidates entered the medicine refining room, Fade's eyes glimmered a little.
Because Eva was in that group.
Fade looked at Eva, and many of them who paid attention to Eva turned to look as well.
At the beginning of the test, Eva seemed to be very skilled in choosing medicinal materials, processing them, and mixing them together. Then, when she reached the hardest part of the test, she put the medicinal materials into the Magic Furnace and started the fire to refine them.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Under everyone's attention, Eva's controlled the fires in the Magic Furnace at ease, and she didn't show any signs of difficulty.
A moment later, the Magic Furnace made a soft sound and a stream of hot air gushed out.
Eva touched it lightly with her tender hands. The Magic Furnace then opened and a creamwhite pill flew out from the Magic Furnace.
The pill gave off a soft medicinal fragrance, and there were clear lines around it.
"The elixir is done. Please test it." Eva handed the medicine to the judge.
Most of the judges were so bored and couldn't gather their interest in the one-star test.
However, when they saw Eva's pill, their eyes lit up in surprise.
"This is the White Lotus Pill, a high-grade one-star pill."
"The pill is smooth, the lines are clear, and the fragrance of medicine is pure. Not bad, not bad!" "This White Lotus Pill would at least get a score of around 85 points."
"No lower than that!"
"Very well, Eva Xu. You have passed the one-star alchemist test. This is your certificate. If you wish to participate in the two-star alchemist test, you can go to the examination room over there." A judge said.
Eva took the badge of a one-star alchemist with both hands and nodded, "Thank you very much, Master. I would like to participate in the two-star alchemist test."
After that, Eva walked toward the two-star alchemist test room.
Seeing this, the people who were looking could not help but whisper amongst themselves.
"I didn't expect that Eva would not only be good-looking, but she's also so good at refining medicine. She is too strong."
"If anyone can marry her, it would be
a great thing She has both good looks and good skills!" "But I'm afraid that she wouldn't like ordinary people like us. Only a gentleman like the Junior Alchemy Master can
attract her attention." Content
The crowd's discussion made Zoella unhappy. She snorted and said, "She's just a one- star Alchemist. What's there to brag about? She doesn't even deserve to be his maid."
When the people around saw that it was Zoella who spoke, although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to say anything. They all just shut up and stepped back.
At that time, it was time for the last group of candidates to take the test.
Zoella lifted her head and held her chest high as she walked into the medicine refining room.
Fade was also in the last group, and he walked in silently.
Perhaps she had been holding in her anger, or perhaps she wanted to show herself again in front of everyone.
From the very beginning, Zoella kept
et
on making a big fuss. For every single herb she chose, she would give them a lengthy introduction: about it just to prove how well she knew about the medicinal herbs.
After that, she would also make a huge introduction for every process, as if she was teaching everyone instead of participating in the exam.
Finally, as the Magic Furnace opened, Zoella's elixir was successfully refined.
She proudly held her pills and gave them to the judges.
Naturally, the judges knew Zoella. They looked at each other, nodded slightly, and began to comment on her pill.
"This Bamboo Spirit Recurrence Pill has a good appearance and clear pill lines. It's really a good item. It can be said that it is at the peak of a one- star alchemist."
"That's right. If it weren't for the fact that the quality of the medicinal ingredients is limited, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to judge it as a two-star medicinal pill!"
"I've given 90 points to this Bamboo Spirit Recurrence Pill. It's really not bad."
"Zoella Liang, you've passed the one-star alchemist test. If you want to take part in the second-star-" the judge said.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked and began to discuss softly.
"Three consecutive exams. This Miss Liang is really quite capable.
"Her family is wealthy, and they could hire the five-star alchemist Tommie He her personal tutor, what else do you think?"
"I saved up ten years of money, and it took me a lot of effort to finish ten classes of the alchemy course. But for her...what a huge difference for us in
status and wealth!"
"Anyway, her skills must be good for her to take three tests in a row."
Under everyone's attentive gaze, Zoella raised her head and walked towards the two-star alchemist test hall like a proud swan.
In a corner that no one paid attention to, Fade silently handed over a black pill that he refined.
The judge glanced at it casually and gave their evaluations, "this Black Pine Blood Cling Pill, the quality, pass. The pill lines are showing, considered okay. It's 65 points. You've passed."
As for the details to enter the two- star alchemist test, the judges barely told Fade much about it.
After all, with his current level, he could barely pass the one-star alchemist test. There was no need to think too much about taking the two-stars test. Fade took the badge and walked towards the two-star alchemist examination hall.
The judges didn't pay much attention to him.
Because at this moment, many candidates went there as well.
After all, Eva and Zoella, the two well-known women in the examination room, were waiting for the test there. It was natural for everyone to go over
and have a look.
Moreover, those who did not pass the test would not be kicked out immediately as well. They could stay inside and watch other people taking their
tests.
After all, this was also quite a rare opportunity for most of the candidates.
Soon, the candidates all fathered at the two-star alchemist examination area.
At the two-star alchemist examination area, each time, three people would form a group and participate in the test.
When Fade arrived, Eva was already taking the pill refining test. Many of the students who followed her were discussing in low voices.
"I wonder if Miss Xu can pass this time."
"I think she could. The judges just said that Miss's pills are of good quality."
"As long as Miss Xu is here, and I can see her for another second longer. That's enough."
Zoella glanced at these male candidates who were all head over heels for Eva, she tugged her lips, and said in disdain, "What a group of toads."
Then, she caught a glimpse of Fade, who was walking in their direction.
Suddenly, she said with discontent, "Why are you here?"
Then, Zoella waved her hands and called the guards on the scene. She pointed at Fade and said, "Throw him out."
She did not forget that Artur, the subordinate of the Liang family, was waiting outside to capture him.
Upon receiving the order, the guards walked over to Fade and shouted, "You, get out!"
Fade asked in confusion, "Why are you driving me away?"
Zoella sneered and said, "What are you doing here still? Get lost!"
