What will we do with Grandpas injury if we dont have the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill?

The expressions of the youngsters changed. However, they could only speak through voice transmission as this was a grandmaster.

Grandmaster Kirton was the one who had dropped the dan prescription of the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill.

The middle-aged man standing in front got anxious. Grandmaster Kirton, did you fail for all five sets of ingredients?

Yes. Grandmaster Kirton felt a little awkward. Theres always a failure rate. Ive found the feeling though. Give me a few more sets, and Ill definitely succeed.

The middle-aged man sighed in his heart. However, he couldnt reprimand him. He hesitated before saying, Youre right. However, you know that the ingredients for this dan are hard to find. It took a lot of effort to get the five sets.

Dont worry, there should be a few ingredients left in the alliance. I think I should be able to use them with my status, Grandmaster Kirton said with an embarra.s.sed smile.

Ill have to trouble you then. Ill repay you later. My family will bear the cost of the ingredients, the middle-aged man promised hurriedly as his eyes lit up.

Its nothing. The main thing is the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill. Ill fulfill my promise to you. Grandmaster Kirton waved his hand.

He contacted the staff in the alliance, wanting to get the sets of Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill ingredients.

But soon, his face turned black.

Grandmaster Kirton, whats the matter? The middle-aged man knew that something was wrong when he saw his expression.

Someone took the ingredients just now, Grandmaster Kirton said helplessly.

Huh? Who is it? Is it too late to get them back? The Ji family is willing to pay any price, the middle-aged man said hurriedly.

Grandmaster Hua Yuan took it. Theres a grandmaster-level a.s.sessment today, and the candidate knows how to refine the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill. Lets take a look. We might be able to stop him. One can make other dans for the grandmaster-level a.s.sessment. Theres no need to make it complicated, Grandmaster Kirton said as he rushed toward the a.s.sessment room.

The middle-aged man and the others followed him.

Grandmaster Alfred and the other grandmasters were waiting outside the room. It was quite a magnificent scene to see a whole group of grandmasters gathered in one place.

Do you think Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng will pa.s.s the alchemy a.s.sessment? a grandmaster asked uncontrollably.

Despite being in the audience, they felt even more nervous than w.a.n.g Teng.

I think so! Alfred pondered before replying.

Grandmaster Alfred looks very confident in Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, a grandmaster smiled and said.

Hahaha, if you saw his a.s.sessment, youd think the same way, Grandmaster Alfred said.

The other two rune grandmasters nodded in agreement.

The grandmaster blacksmiths were surprised by their reaction. They were the only ones who hadnt seen w.a.n.g Tengs a.s.sessment, so they were filled with curiosity.

While they were discussing, Grandmaster Kirton charged over fiercely with a bunch of people. Seeing the situation outside the room, they were stunned.

Whats the matter? Why are there so many grandmasters here? Grandmaster Kirton was dumbfounded.

Grandmaster Kirton, what are you doing? Grandmaster Alfred got up and asked.

Grandmaster Kirton remembered the purpose of his visit and replied hurriedly, Grandmaster Alfred, is Grandmaster Hua Yuan holding the a.s.sessment for the candidate now?

Indeed. You know about this too?

Of course, I know. Did they take the ingredients for the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill? Grandmaster Kirton wanted to barge in as he spoke.

Wait, what are you doing? Grandmaster Alfreds expression changed, stopping him furiously.

Grandmaster Kirton, you cant go in.

Theres someone taking the grandmaster a.s.sessment inside. You will offend him if you enter now.

Thats right. This a.s.sessment is very important. You cant go in.

The other grandmasters ran over hurriedly and stood in Grandmaster Kirtons path.

What are you guys doing? Grandmaster Kirtons expression changed. He didnt expect so many grandmasters to come and stop him.

He wondered who the person inside was. How could he have such power?

Grandmaster Kirton recalled the Ji family. If he could make the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill, he could gain a favor from them, benefitting him greatly.

He decided to take the risk and said, I have an emergency use for the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill. Ill explain to the candidate and apologize to him.

No, this candidate is different. We cant offend him, Grandmaster Alfred said.

The other grandmasters nodded fervently. They agreed with Grandmaster Alfreds decision.

This was a triple-grandmaster candidate. His significance to the alliance was different. Even if the probability was low, they mustnt take the risk.

Grandmaster Kirton didnt think that these grandmasters would still stop him after he repeated his request. His heart dropped.

Did this candidate have such a powerful background? Why were these grandmasters helping him?

Grandmasters, cant you give the Ji family some leeway? The Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill is extremely important to us. A middle-aged man stepped out from behind Grandmaster Kirton and cupped his fists at the grandmasters.

The Ji family! The grandmasters expressions changed.

Is it one of the eight dukes, Duke Xukongs Ji family? Alfred took a deep breath and asked.

Not bad! the middle-aged man replied proudly.

Alfred exchanged glances with the other grandmasters. In the end, he shook his head and said apologetically, Im sorry, we still cant permit you to enter.

The middle-aged mans expression turned black. Even though he had used the Ji familys name, these grandmasters were still unwilling to give him face.

Were they looking down on them?

Grandmaster Alfred, whos the person inside? asked Grandmaster Kirton.

Alfred read his expression and explained, The candidate inside might be a triple-grandmaster. We dont want to offend the Ji family, but this potential triple-grandmaster t.i.tle is extremely important to our alliance. Were really sorry!

Triple-grandmaster! Grandmaster Kirton was shocked.

He finally understood why Grandmaster Alfred and the others stopped him. If he offended the other party, he might have to cut ties with these grandmasters.

A triple-grandmaster was too important for the alliance. He wouldnt want to get on the bad side of this genius either.

The middle-aged mans expression changed. Naturally, he understood what this triple-grandmaster t.i.tle meant. No wonder the grandmasters treated him as such even after learning he was from the Ji family. It was understandable.

The middle-aged man sighed uncontrollably. He couldnt enter forcefully since he didnt want to offend all these grandmasters. Shaking his head, he said, I understand, Im the reckless one.

Actually, you dont have to be disappointed. What if he succeeds? Alfred smiled and said.

Oh right! The middle-aged mans eyes lit up.

Its just an a.s.sessment. He might not need the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill. You can buy it from him, Alfred said.

Hahaha, indeed. Thank you for reminding me, the middle-aged man laughed and said.

Grandmaster Kirton couldnt bear to douse his happiness when he saw the smile on the mans face.

He had refined the Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill before, so he knew how difficult the process was. The person inside might not succeed.
