"Greetings to all Senior Brothers!"
Although Chu Ning was a bit surprised to find nearly a hundred people in the Alchemy Pavilion hall, he still nodded calmly at everyone.
He Yanmao also vaguely felt that such a grand gathering of the Alchemy Pavilion was indeed sowhat inappropriate.
A gentle smile appeared on his stern face as he said to Chu Ning:
"Junior Brother Chu, you have already t several of us stewards before.
However, there are other Senior and Junior Brothers and Qi Refining disciples you haven’t t yet. When they heard you were coming, they wanted to et you."
Saying this, He Yanmao turned his head to the crowd and said:
"This is the new steward of our Alchemy Pavilion, Steward Chu Ning."
Although the people in the Alchemy Pavilion were curious and surprised by Chu Ning’s youth and had heard so discussions in recent days,
most of them didn’t have the status and background of Yuan Rongzhang, so even if they were surprised in their hearts,
they still cupped their hands and said:
"Greetings, Steward Chu!"
Chu Ning cupped his hands in response, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, and then he said:
"Mr. Chu just arrived here and I ask for my fellow sect mbers to care for in the future."
His polite words sowhat surprised He Yanmao, who was slightly familiar with Alchemist Xiao’s temper.
But he thought that since Alchemist Xiao had completely changed his identity and settled past grudges, his personality no longer being quirky seed normal.
At this mont, Yuan Rongzhang inadvertently gave a glance, and imdiately an elder next to him, who appeared similar in age to He Yanmao, spoke:
"Junior Brother Chu, Geng Wansheng has sothing he wishes to ask."
Chu Ning’s gaze fell on Geng Wansheng, seeing that he was also at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt Cultivation.
This person looked thin, but his aura was stronger than that of ordinary Middle Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, as if he was about to step into the Late Stage of Foundation Establishnt.
"Senior Brother Geng, please speak."
Chu Ning spoke, and Geng Wansheng’s gaze imdiately fixed on him.
"To tell the truth, Junior Brother, I had also considered vying for the position of the Alchemy Pavilion steward with the sect.
The sect has rules for this position, requiring not only to be an Interdiate Middle Grade Alchemist,
but also to be able to refine five types of Interdiate Middle Grade Elixirs with a pill formation success rate of over 60%, and ten types of Interdiate Lower Grade Elixirs with a success rate of over 80%."
Hearing Geng Wansheng’s words, Chu Ning was slightly stunned.
Indeed, he hadn’t heard from He Yanmao about such rules.
The requirent to be recognized as an Interdiate Middle Grade Alchemist is to be able to refine an Interdiate Middle Grade Elixir with a pill formation success rate of over 60%.
However, one only needs to be able to refine one type.
The steward requirent for the Alchemy Pavilion to refine five types of Interdiate Middle Grade Elixirs with a success rate of over 60% is indeed more demanding.
At first glance, refining ten types of Interdiate Lower Grade Elixirs with a success rate of over 80% seems easier.
However, Chu Ning knew this was only relative to him.
Ordinary Alchemists, even Interdiate Middle Grade Alchemists, can usually only refine five or six familiar types of Interdiate Lower Grade Elixirs with over 80% success rate.
After all, at this level of elixir, the required spirit dicine is not common.
It’s difficult for Alchemists to get a large amount of spirit dicine to practice with.
So Alchemists are only proficient in refining one or two types of elixirs.
Seeing Chu Ning’s expression, a strange glint flashed in Geng Wansheng’s eyes, and he continued:
"However, Mr. Geng’s alchemy technique is lacking in these two requirents.
Since Junior Brother Chu has been recognized by the sect elders as the steward of the Alchemy Pavilion, I believe you must have t these requirents."
As soon as Geng Wansheng finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the Alchemy Pavilion beca even more varied.
No one was a fool, and they could hear that Geng Wansheng was using a provoking thod.
At this mont, Chu Ning spoke calmly:
"This rule is unknown to Mr. Chu.
Elder Gong did see the elixirs I refined, but it seems they weren’t this many types."
"Wow!"
Hearing Chu Ning personally admit to this matter, there was an uproar.
The Qi Refining disciples were alright, but so Foundation Establishnt Cultivators had already started to speak up.
"Why does our sect’s alchemists have to comply with this rule, but others do not?"
"Indeed, for Senior Brother Geng and others, isn’t this unfair?"
"We’ve all seen Senior Brother Geng’s alchemy technique. If he can’t be a steward, how can others manage?"
...
For a while, the Alchemy Pavilion was in a hubbub.
More than ten Foundation Establishnt Cultivators looked at Chu Ning with so disapproval.
Although the Qi Refining disciples dared not show such looks, they still carried a hint of peculiarity.
The expressions on the faces of several stewards in front of Chu Ning were also varied.
He Yanmao’s face showed slight embarrassnt, obviously feeling troubled by the sowhat uncontrolled situation.
Su Yuqing’s expression remained relatively calm, with curious eyes directed at Chu Ning, seemingly wanting to see how Chu Ning would handle this situation.
As for Xu Minghua, no expression was visible on his face.
Yuan Rongzhang’s gaze at Chu Ning bore a sense of amusent.
At this mont, Chu Ning remained calm, his eyes swept over everyone and finally settled on He Yanmao.
"Senior Brother He, since my alchemy skills are in doubt among my senior brothers, why not arrange a test?"
Upon hearing Chu Ning actually suggest a test himself, He Yanmao imdiately breathed a sigh of relief.
He had seen the elixirs Chu Ning refined and knew their quality wasn’t low.
As to whether Chu Ning could master the refining thods of so many types of Interdiate Elixirs, he didn’t know.
