Chapter 406
As they watched this group of alchemists enter, the atmosphere seemed to become more tense.
Even some of the more confident alchemists frowned slightly and kept looking into the mist.
However, the mist seemed thin, but nothing could be seen clearly.
They could only hear some movements from inside, and soon, there was a loud explosion.
Next, a similar sound could be heard from time to time, mixed with the burning smell of failed alchemy, and slowly dispersed.
This made The Invisible String in the small courtyard even more taut.
At this moment, three more alchemists walked down the corridor.
After hearing the footsteps, some of the alchemists turned around to look. Some of them were surprised and began to whisper to each other.
Noticing this, PEI Ling also turned around.
He saw a female and two male alchemists slowly walking down the corridor.
The three of them were wearing green robes with plain patterns. Their pure auras gave off an ethereal feeling, as if they were one with the surrounding vegetation.
The female cultivator in the lead was pretty. She had curved brows, almond-shaped eyes, a Jade-like nose, cherry lips, and a white oval face. She had some baby fat and looked childish. She had an innocent and delicate beauty.
Behind her were two male alchemists. The left one was slightly thin and tall, with a fair complexion and a refined bearing; On the right was a handsome looking man, looking around with bright eyes.
The two of them walked very slowly, and from time to time, they would comment on the Blackwood outside the corridor.
Unlike most of the alchemists in the queue, they looked calm and relaxed, as if they didn’t care about the audition at all.
“A disciple of the Jade Qilin Academy!” Just as PEI Ling was in doubt, he heard an Alchemist not far away whisper softly, ” why are they here? And from the looks of it, you’re also going to participate in the audition with us?”
Before he could finish his words, an old Alchemist stroked his long white beard and said indifferently, ” “You’re a wandering cultivator from outside the Empire, right? According to the rules of the Empire, the pill ceremony didn’t care about one’s background and treated everyone equally! Even if the Jade Qilin Academy is established by the royal family, and the disciples are either rich or noble, there is no exception!”
&Quot; unless they have already passed the examination to become an apothecary of 5th grade and above! &Quot;
“Is it difficult to become a fifth grade Alchemist?” The foreign cultivator who had spoken earlier asked in surprise.
Hearing this, PEI Ling also listened attentively.
The old local Alchemist sneered and said, ” “A fifth grade Alchemist ... Hehe, the standard for a ninth grade Alchemist in this dynasty is to be able to refine middle grade pills. An eighth-grade Alchemist could refine high-grade medicinal pills. Once you reach the level of a seventh realm Alchemist, you have the qualifications to enter the ‘minor sky of freedom’ and seek the opportunities within ...”
&Quot; if he can really pass the fifth-grade Alchemist test, even if he directly enters the ‘small sky of freedom’ and participates in the final ceremony, I believe it will be enough to convince the public! &Quot;
&Quot; the disciples of the Jade Qilin Academy are indeed outstanding. After all, they are young. &Quot;
“So, these three people need to start with the pre-selection, just like us ...”
Hearing the people beside him whispering, PEI Ling muttered in his heart.
The Jade Qilin Academy ... Before they entered, the guards at the door had also said that there were students from the Academy who were responsible for leading the way today.
It seemed that the Academy should be the system used by the glaze avarice dynasty to cultivate the younger generation.
This dynasty was one of the nine great sects, but its system was quite different from that of a sect.
It could be said that in the eyes of the other sects, the glazed tile Empire was one of the top sects.
However, in the eyes of the Liu Fu dynasty ...
They were actually a dynasty, not a sect!
As he pondered, PEI Ling secretly observed the three of them and discovered that the aura around them was particularly pure. It was obvious that their foundations were strong and pure. Not to mention ordinary rogue cultivators, even among the disciples of the Zhong gang sect, there were not many who could be compared to these three!
Sensing this, PEI Ling thought, ” “The foundation of the righteous path’s disciples seems to be generally stronger than that of the devil cultivators ...”
“The disciples of su zhentian and the cultivators of Liu Yan Empire that I met along the way all had pure auras and strong foundations ...”
“As for the heavy puppet sect and the heaven’s born sect, these big demonic sects, the foundation of their disciples is somewhat uneven.”
“The difference between the strong and the weak can be said to be as vast as the clouds and mud.”
“However, I feel like these righteous disciples are missing something ...”
Gu Nanxun walked briskly through the long corridor. She could feel many eyes on her and heard the cultivators ‘whispers. However, none of this affected her expression or mood.
As the beloved daughter of Marquis Zhao tai, who held the real power in the glaze avarice dynasty, her aunt was one of the favorite concubines of the current Emperor. Her cousin was even a Princess. Due to her noble birth and outstanding qualifications, she was admitted to the best Jade Qilin Academy in the dynasty at a young age and was loved by the teachers in the Academy.
It could be said that she grew up being surrounded by stars.
Therefore, Gu Nanxun had long been used to being the center of attention.
No matter the environment, no matter what happened, as long as she appeared, she would definitely become the center of attention.
Gu Nanxun had long been calm about this.
She didn’t pay any attention to the gazes and words of these people. She raised her chin slightly, walked to a dark and thin young man at the back, and began to line up.
Xin Yuhan and he zhuzhi, who followed closely behind, were also descendants of high officials. They were born to be arrogant and domineering, and lived in luxury for many years. This caused these three students of the Jade Qilin Academy to reveal a sense of superiority in their actions.
However, even though they appeared to be incompatible with the crowd, they had no intention of stirring up trouble.
Instead, he was like everyone else, quietly lining up. He did not seem to be angry or dissatisfied that he did not receive any special treatment.
&Quot; Nan Xun, this selection is not difficult for you at all. &Quot; After they started lining up, Xin Yuhan looked around and didn’t see anyone interested, so he said telepathically, ” as for these itinerant cultivators, I don’t know if three out of ten will be able to pass, but they’re always trying their luck for the various benefits of our dynasty. &Quot;
“Now that we’re all squeezed here, we’ll have to wait for a long time,”
Gu Nanxun’s eyes curved as she said softly, ” “Don’t say that. Since our Empire has set such a rule, we naturally have to abide by it.”
“Furthermore, when it comes to pill refining, a slight mistake can lead to a thousand miles of error.”
“The Masters have always said that even a famous master can’t guarantee that there won’t be any mistakes,”
&Quot; so even if the difficulty of the pre-selection is not high for us, we can’t let our guard down. &Quot;
“In short, we must do our best later.”
“Yu Han and I are the ones who need to do our best.” &Quot; as for you, Nanxun, I’m afraid you can just casually refine a furnace with your eyes closed. &Quot; he zhuzhi also transmitted his voice.
&Quot; after all, the teachers have all said that we look forward to you becoming famous in this alchemy discussion ceremony and spreading the name of the Jade Qilin Academy! &Quot;
