Chapter 193 - 193 Yao Huang

Next to the room where the tests for the bronze grade alchemists were being conducted, was also a large door with the word 'Silver' on it.

This was where the tests for the silver grade alchemists were taking place.

Contrary to the busy room where the bronze grade alchemists were being tested, there were only 4 people in this room.

A rank 3 bronze grade alchemist, along with a rank 1 silver grade alchemist, were both sitting in front of 2 cauldrons, refining their pills.

In front of them were 2 men, both wearing badges of rank 2 silver grade alchemists.

One man seemed to be in his middle 40s with a long ponytail and a stern expression on his face.

The other one, had a unique wide jaw, short spiky black hair and a pair of cold eyes.

The door of the room abruptly opened, and both men turned their heads to look at the newcomer.

The middle-aged rank 3 bronze grade alchemist, Lai Rong, entered the room in a hurry, and looking at the man with the short black hair, he quickly bowed as he said

''Senior Yao!''

The man with the cold eyes looked at Lai Rong without any change of emotions on his face, as he waited to hear the reason that he had come to meet him.

At the same time, the man with the long ponytail frowned slightly, before he continued watching the tests of the 2 alchemists in front of him, completely ignoring Lai Rong.

Lai Rong took a deep breath as he stared at the man with the short hair in front of him, before he said

''Senior Yao! There is a very unusual alchemist who came to take the bronze grade examination!''

Understanding that his words weren't enough to garner 'Senior Yao's' interest, Lai Rong hurriedly explained

''He just took 5 minutes to refine 4 top-grade rank 1 'Qi barrier-breaking pills', but that's not everything.

His 'Qi barrier-breaking pills' are completely different from the normal ones. He even claimed, that those pills can allow someone who is at the peak of rank 6 in Qi condensation, to have a 90% chance of advancing directly to the middle of rank 7. Brother Jie, brother Rui and me, all examined the pills, and we can estimate that even he exaggerated his words, the pills should still have a somewhat similar effect as what he described.

Aside from that... he... also passed the test to become a rank 2 bronze grade alchemist in less than 5 minutes as well... again refining some top-grade rank 2 pills.''

Lai Rong had his head lowered staring at the ground, as he recounted everything with great detail.

As he raised his head, he saw a dumbfounded 'Senior Yao' staring at him in shock.

Even he, who was a rank 2 silver grade alchemist, couldn't say for sure that he could refine top-grade rank 2 pills in less than 5 minutes.

''Could it be, that this person is actually a pinnacle rank 2 silver grade alchemist?''

As 'Senior Yao' gathered his thoughts, he didn't even spare a look at Lai Rong in front of him, as he quickly walked towards the examination room for the bronze grade alchemists.

Back inside the room, Shun Long was still extracting the essence of the rank 3 'Crystal Ice lotus', as he prepared to refine his anti-toxin pills.

As soon as 'Senior Yao' entered the room, the overseers and the alchemists who were observing Shun Long, stared at him in shock. A rank 2 silver grade alchemist had actually come to watch the test of a rank 2 bronze grade newbie?

'Brother Jie' and 'brother Rui', the 2 overseers immediately walked up to him, and with fawning smiles they greeted him

''Senior Yao!''

'Senior Yao' however, stared at them with an ice-cold look in his eyes, as he pointed at the rest of the alchemists and said

''You idiots! If you aren't supervising the tests of everyone, then what are you doing here?''

The 2 overseers immediately lowered their heads, but an aggrieved feeling overcame their hearts as they thought to themselves

''Aren't you also here because you are interested in this person? Why can't we observe him as well?''

However, the 2 rank 3 bronze grade alchemists didn't dare to argue with 'Senior Yao', as they continued observing everyone in the room.

The spiky-haired 'Senior Yao' walked towards Shun Long, while at the same time, he was seriously observing the movements of his hands.

Shun Long seemed to have been deconstructing the petals of the rank 3 'Crystal ice lotus' in front of him, one by one, before he placed them inside his alchemy cauldron.

'Senior Yao' had never seen something like this before.

It was known that the 'Crystal ice lotus' could only be refined properly if it was intact and under low temperatures.

The person in front of him however, was doing the exact opposite.

Not only did he 'destroy' the ice lotus, but the flames of his cauldron were scorchingly high.

After placing the 'Crystal ice lotus' inside the cauldron, Shun Long also added the rank 3 'black centipede's powder', before he put back the lid of the cauldron.

'Senior Yao' could no longer see what was going on inside the cauldron.

Additionally, since even the bronze grade cauldrons of the 'Alchemist's Guild' were equipped with special formations, he couldn't have a look inside it even with his soul sense.

The rank 2 silver grade alchemist didn't speak, as his eyes were staring at Shun Long's cauldron, curious if he was going to succeed in his pill refinement, after he had practically ruined the 'Crystal ice lotus'.

Less than 10 minutes passed, as Shun Long then opened the lid of his cauldron, revealing the contents inside.

'Senior Yao's' mouth was agape when he saw the 5 completed pills, all of them being top-grade rank 3 pills.

'Senior Yao's' mind was now in a mess.

As a rank 2 silver grade alchemist, he had even received pointers from a rank 1 gold grade alchemist in the past.

And yet, he had no way to explain the scene in front of his eyes, that was completely different to what he knew.

Taking a deep breath, the spiky-haired 'Senior Yao' approached Shun Long and cupped his hands as he said

''Greetings. My name is Yao Huang, an overseer for the tests of the silver grade alchemists in the 'Alchemists' Guild'.''

Shun Long looked at the man in front of him, and noticed the silver-colored badge with 2 stars on his c.h.e.s.t, showing that he was a rank 2 silver grade alchemist.

Nodding his head, he then cupped his hands in response, as he said

''My name is Shun Long''

Yao Huang's mind immediately tried to remember if he had ever heard of this name before, but to his surprise, no such young alchemist seemed to have appeared in the 'Heaven's Dome city'.

''Younger brother Shun, did you just come to the 'Heaven's Dome city'? Otherwise, such a talented young alchemist couldn't have stayed nameless.''

Shun Long understood that Yao Huang was probing him for his origins, as he smiled and said calmly

''Indeed, I have only just come to the city and I don't know many people here.''

Yao Huang started laughing when he heard that, and patting Shun Long's shoulder he continued

''Haha, then coming to the 'Alchemists' Guild' was the best choice. Almost all of the alchemists in the 'Heaven's Dome city' are members of our Guild. The 'Heaven's Dome city' is a dangerous place, and being a member of the 'Alchemists' Guild' offers you a certain degree of protection as well as status.

Actually, I also wonder, if younger brother Shun intends to join any of the strong powers of the 'Heaven's Dome city' as well!''
