Chapter 37: Perfect Grade, Grade 3 Alchemist

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhu Wangsheng’s disciple had always been a perfect alchemist. With Feng Yin’s current situation, if they dared to give the third-grade alchemist certificate below them, Zhu Wangsheng would probably come out in the next second and throw them all out.

Fang Lili, one of the three examiners in charge of sealing the assessment, looked at Feng Yin and raised his head to look at their puzzled gazes. After thinking for a while, he braced himself and spoke. “You have to refine a Grade Three Perfect Grade medicinal pill before you can be promoted to a Grade Alchemist.”

“Is this the rule of the last line of defense base city? Why don’t I know?”

When he was outside the door, the fact that Feng Yin could refine a Perfect Grade Body Refinement Pill had already been exposed. However, Feng Yin felt that he could still hold on for a while. As long as he did not reveal that he could refine a Perfect Grade Tier 3 medicinal pill, the problem wouldn’t be huge.

Previously, Song Yusheng had also said that there were others in the last defense base city who could refine perfect-grade medicinal pills. Presumably, a small alchemist like him who could only refine Perfect Grade Body Refinement Pills would not be noticed.

“There’s no such rule in the last defense base city.” Zhu Wangsheng walked out of the private room and came to Feng Yin. He looked at Feng Yin and said directly, “I’m Zhu Wangsheng. If nothing goes wrong, I’ll be your mentor in alchemy.”

Zhu Wangsheng first revealed his identity to Feng Yin before continuing, “My disciple can only advance as a Perfect Grade Alchemist. I don’t know what you’re worried about. No one dares to touch the base city at the last line of defense. Not to mention, you’re my disciple.”

When Zhu Wangsheng said this, he was full of confidence. Speaking of which, with Zhu Wangsheng’s achievements in alchemy, the entire human race would probably not offend him easily.

Even those who betrayed the human race were the same. No one knew when they would be able to beg him. If he killed him before this, it would reduce his chances of survival.

Those who betrayed the human race simply felt that the human race had no hope of survival under the siege of the myriad races. Moreover, some of the myriad races had no intention of killing the human race.

The Human Race could cooperate with such people and let them help the Human Race resist the invasion of other races.

Among them, what the human race needed to pay was only their autonomy over Planet Cerulean Water. In the eyes of those who betrayed the human race, the price of all this was something they could withstand. In their eyes, they were just looking for a better way out for the human race.

He couldn’t comment on these people’s standpoints. The only thing he knew was that they wouldn’t take the initiative to harm those famous alchemists, and they wouldn’t even offend them.

In some ways, the value of Zhu Wangsheng’s words was extremely high in the human race.

Feng Yin had no doubts about Zhu Wangsheng’s words. The only thing that surprised him was that Zhu Wangsheng could tell that he had purposely crippled this pill. Thinking about Zhu Wangsheng’s alchemy skills, Feng Yin felt that Zhu Wangsheng could see through it.

If Zhu Wangsheng could not tell, Feng Yin would be surprised.

“Okay.” Feng Yin did not hesitate at all. Since he had already been discovered, he could not be bothered to hide anymore. He immediately cleaned out the pill furnace and was about to light the fire to refine the pill again.

“Use this.” Before the fire was lit, Zhu Wangsheng suddenly handed over a palm-sized cauldron. The cauldron was completely made of purple crystal, and one could vaguely see the inside of the cauldron.

As soon as the cauldron was in his hands, Feng Yin could sense how extraordinary it was.

“For me?” Feng Yin pointed at himself curiously. Dang Hongfei had said before that Zhu Wangsheng was very strict with his disciples.

How did Zhu Wangsheng decide to take him in as a disciple when they had only met once?

“The apprenticeship gift.” Zhu Wangsheng nodded and confirmed Feng Yin’s words. Then, he saw the doubt in Feng Yin’s eyes and thought for a moment before explaining. “You have Absolute Six Senses. Your talent in martial arts is also very high.

“With these two talents, the possibility of you breaking through to the Perfect Grade Eight Alchemist is much higher than mine. The test that I envisioned previously will naturally be canceled.”

With that, Zhu Wangsheng pointed at the cauldron in Feng Yin’s hand and continued, “Therefore, you have to refine another batch of pills and reach the perfect grade.”

“Got it.”

“President, this doesn’t make sense!” Feng Yin had just agreed when Zhu Wangsheng was pulled back by You Meng after he returned to the private room. In the Alchemist Association, there had never been a time when the alchemist teacher would come over to guide them after refining pills and continue with the assessment.

Listening to You Meng’s shouting, Zhu Wangsheng glanced at You Meng indifferently and asked, “Did Feng Yin pass the third-grade alchemist test for the pill he just refined?”

“From the looks of it, he passed.” You Meng did not know why Zhu Wangsheng suddenly asked this, but judging from the Alchemist Association, Feng Yin had indeed passed. You Meng could not lie about this.

However, the moment he said this, Chu Wangsheng suddenly said, “Look, you said that he passed. Then this is just an additional test. Is there a problem with having an additional test for a perfect alchemist?”

“N-no problem.” You Meng opened his mouth to refute Zhu Wangsheng’s words, but when he saw the way Zhu Wangsheng looked at him, he suddenly felt that everything was not that important anymore.

After an alchemist was promoted to a corresponding level, they could take the test to become a Perfect Grade alchemist. However, most alchemists rarely passed two tests at once, so the Alchemist Association did not have any specific requirements regarding the interval between the tests.

Now that Zhu Wangsheng was using this time to take advantage of the loophole, You Meng really had no choice. Of course, the most important thing was that he had to relax his mentality and be more tolerant of geniuses.

Feng Yin had the ability to directly become a Perfect Grade Three Alchemist. He could just directly become one.

Seeing that You Meng had nothing more to say, Zhu Wangsheng finally retracted his gaze and looked at Feng Yin’s alchemy technique again.

The more he saw, the more Zhu Wangsheng frowned.

The alchemy technique Feng Yin used was too simple. Most of the time, there were no techniques to speak of. The reason why he was able to become a Perfect Grade Three Alchemist was because of his own talent, not his technique.

After Feng Yin entered the academy and chose a martial arts teacher, Zhu Wangsheng was prepared to teach him well in the field of alchemy.

The refining time of the Tier 3 medicinal pills was about the same as Tier 2 medicinal pills. Refining it again would only take an extra hour and a half. Not long after, Feng Yin’s cauldron opened its lid, revealing three round Perfect Grade medicinal pills and six supreme-grade ones.

The three examiners in charge of the assessment took the pills refined by Feng Yin seriously and sized it up. They nodded and recorded his results into the Alchemist Association’s system.
