At this mont, after Jiang Qingge helped Lu Ye put on his shoes, she still didn’t get up.
Squatting in front of Lu Ye, slightly tilting her head, seemingly...expecting sothing.
"Not bad, the progress is fast, beyond my expectations." Lu Ye smiled and said.
Upon hearing this complint, Jiang Qingge imdiately felt satisfied, not wasting her nightly ditation and hard training!
...
anwhile, in Danling City.
Today was the day Jiang Lingyue signed up to participate in the alchemist examination.
Early in the morning, she arrived at the Alchemy Association, waiting for the previous exam takers to enter the assessnt one after another.
Beside her was Su Liuying, the steward accompanying her from Dan Peak.
Watching the girl next to her who seed a bit nervous, Su Liuying couldn’t help but smile and said, "Don’t be nervous, you just need to perform as usual, and there will be no problem at all."
"Okay, Steward Su, I won’t be nervous." Hearing this, Jiang Lingyue nodded vigorously.
The Tier One Alchemist badge, she absolutely had to get it.
Next ti, she would take the badge back to show that person.
Before long, as the people ahead either left dejected or pleased after their assessnts, it was finally Jiang Lingyue’s turn.
"Next, Jiang Lingyue."
With the examiner’s impassive announcent, Jiang Lingyue imdiately stood up, clenched her little fist to cheer herself on, and quickly walked towards the alchemist examination room.
Behind her, Su Liuying appeared calm. She was truly unconcerned, knowing well this little girl’s alchemy skill level.
Sure enough, in less than half an hour, Jiang Lingyue walked out of the alchemy room.
Su Liuying looked at the girl’s expression and found that the girl wasn’t overly happy nor particularly disappointed.
This aroused Su Liuying’s curiosity.
Did she succeed, or did she make a huge blunder leading to failure?
"How did it go?"
Jiang Lingyue thought for a mont and whispered, "I succeeded, but..."
Before she could finish speaking, an elder in robes suddenly walked out of the alchemy room behind her and directly approached.
Seeing Jiang Lingyue, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the old man’s eyes.
"Are you the little girl who took the exam just now? Would you be interested... in apprenticing under ?"
Next to her, when Su Liuying recognized the attire of the elder, adorned with a dal featuring four patterns, she showed a hint of surprise.
This was evidently an alchemist who had reached the level of a Tier Four Alchemy Master!
He ca here to take Jiang Lingyue as a disciple?!
At this mont, Su Liuying realized that during the examination, Jiang Lingyue must have perford very well.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been possible to move an alchemy master of this level.
anwhile, inside the Alchemy Hall.
Many people stared blankly at the scene, almost unable to believe their eyes.
A Tier Four Alchemy Master!
There were only three stationed in Danling City altogether!
This ans that if she apprenticed under this one, she would rise to prominence, almost no one in the Northern Territory would dare provoke her.
Many people felt their breaths quicken.
But on the opposite side of the elder, hearing the elder’s words, Jiang Lingyue thought for a mont and then showed a hint of an apologetic expression.
"I’m sorry, sir, I already have a ntor..."
As these words spread, reaching the ears of the crowd, they were stunned again, doubting if they had misheard.
A Tier Four Alchemy Master publicly accepting a disciple was actually rejected face to face?!
Isn’t sothing strange about this world...
Even the elder himself hadn’t expected that the little girl in front of him would refuse so decisively.
But thinking of the little girl’s solid foundation and seamless alchemy technique just now, his love for talent resurfaced.
"You might not be aware of my identity," the elder confidently said, puffing out his chest, "I am Master Dan Yuan..."
Master Dan Yuan...one of the three Tier Four Alchemy Masters in Danling City!
"Oh..." Jiang Lingyue did not recognize him. Although sensing that his introduction was undoubtedly unusual, she could only softly respond.
After all, it’s not her nature to praise sothing she’s not familiar with.
Seeing Jiang Lingyue’s indifferent reaction, soone in the hall couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Subsequently, it infected a group, and many suppressed laughs echoed intermittently in the hall.
They naturally knew Master Dan Yuan’s reputation, but seeing the renowned Master Dan Yuan being rebuffed by a little girl, they simply couldn’t resist.
Master Dan Yuan was almost anxious enough to scratch his head at this mont.
But regardless of how he persuaded further, Jiang Lingyue remained unmoved, and helplessly, Master Dan Yuan could only leave in disappointnt.
After Master Dan Yuan left, Su Liuying finally asked quietly.
"Why didn’t you agree to him? Your ntor is for cultivation, and this one is for alchemy, there’s completely no conflict between the two."
Jiang Lingyue thought, of course she knew that if she really apprenticed, the teachings from the two ntors would certainly differ with no overlap.
But...
She glanced at Su Liuying beside her without speaking.
The experienced Su Liuying felt a stir in her heart, seeming to understand sothing...
Soon, Su Liuying’s assessnt was also about to begin.
Watching Su Liuying calmly proceed towards the high-tier alchemy room, Jiang Lingyue silently murmured behind her.
"Steward Su... you must succeed in advancing!"
...
Outside Cloud Leaf City.
After parting with Jiang Qingge, Lu Ye once again arrived outside Cloud Leaf City.
This place was about four or five hundred miles away from Cloud Leaf City.
In a deserted cave, Lu Ye first set up several barriers, then took out two array plates.
Using the array plates, he set up two more barriers to block the aura.
Finally, with a mildly serious expression, he summoned the small tree from the Myriad Dao Pavilion.
The small sapling, originally about half a ter tall, shrank to about twenty centiters as soon as it was plucked from the strange ground.
As soon as it was taken out, an intensely dense Heaven and Earth Source Qi erged from the small tree’s body imdiately.
"What a magical little tree, truly a wonder of the world."
His eyes lit up, and placing the small tree around him, Lu Ye imdiately began to operate the Ancient Star Scripture.
Originally, Lu Ye thought the small tree’s size was not large, so its supply of formidable Source Qi shouldn’t be too much.
In full absorption with the Ancient Star Scripture...
In at most half an hour, he believed he would absorb all the overflowing Heaven and Earth Source Qi.
Unexpectedly, it took almost an hour before this scene manifested.
During this hour, Lu Ye, who had just recently advanced to the late stage of the Grandmaster Ninth Layer, saw his cultivation once again rise like the tide towards nearing perfection at the ninth layer.
