After Ye Xuan controlled his second clone to escape from the Mysterious Dragon Snapping Turtle's pursuit, he withdrew his consciousness. His main body brought Hun Yuying and Ao Bingxue to Nine Heavens City.
Now that the Nine Heaven Sword Sect had undergone a drastic change, and the entire sect had become mysterious and powerful, he could not rush the matter of avenging his clone and taking back the position of sect master. This matter had to be carried out step by step slowly.
In addition, the Void Ruins outside of Nine Heavens Star will open in seven days, so Ye Xuan decided to go to Nine Heavens Star to gather some information. At the same time, Ye Xuan also wanted to make a trip to the Alchemist Guild and participate in the examination to become an official alchemist so that he could sell some pills later on.
With the terrifying speed of the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale, according to Ye Xuan and the others' estimations, it would only take them half a day to reach Nine Heavens City from Star Sea City.
Nine Heavens City was located in the center of Nine Heavens Star. It was the largest and most prosperous city in Nine Heavens Star.
When they arrived at Nine Heavens City, night fell and the sky gradually darkened. Ye Xuan and the others could only find a place to temporarily stay.
Early the next morning, Ye Xuan rushed to the Alchemist Guild. As for Hun Yuying and Ao Bingxue, they didn't follow Ye Xuan. Instead, they went to investigate some information regarding the Void Ruins and the Nine Heavens Sword Sect.
The Alchemist Guild was built in the most bustling commercial center of Nine Heavens City. When Ye Xuan arrived, the place was already packed with people and bustling with noise and excitement.
"Come and take a look, it's a freshly made Mysterious Qi Pill, only one Star Coin per pill …"
"Brothers and sisters-in-law, please don't miss this opportunity. Come here and take a look. I guarantee that there will be pills that you need …"
"I am a Master of the Alchemist Association. I am looking for Alchemist Apprentices. Those who wish to learn Alchemy, please register here. The first ten who register will only have to pay ten thousand star coins."
Some members of the Alchemist Guild or Alchemists of the Jianghu had set up stalls at the entrance of the guild, selling all sorts of pills. Many citizens were there to watch and choose, making it seem especially lively.
Ye Xuan only took a glance before smiling and heading straight towards the Alchemist Guild.
Very quickly, Ye Xuan arrived at the main hall of the Alchemist Guild. This place was still filled with a sea of people, and there were young and beautiful men and women wearing alchemist robes everywhere. On his chest, there was an eye-catching and unique badge with two eye-catching words written on it - Student.
Without a doubt, these people were alchemy students and not real alchemists.
"Looks like it won't be that easy to become an alchemist!"
Ye Xuan couldn't help but click his tongue when he saw that none of the young men and women in front of him were alchemists.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Xuan walked towards a group of young men and women standing not too far away. "Excuse me, may I ask where I can take the alchemist examination and certification?"
"Apothecary test and certification?"
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the young men and women couldn't help but be stunned, and a trace of doubt flashed through their eyes.
"What? You want to take the alchemist certification test? "
Then, they seemed to have thought of something and asked in astonishment.
They were all students with talent in alchemy, and in the near future, they would definitely become alchemists. Among their peers, they could be said to be the pride of the heavens, outstanding existences. Now, this young man in front of them, who looked to be about the same age as them, actually wanted to take the test to become an alchemist. How could they not be shocked?
"That's right. It's my first time coming to the Alchemist Association and I don't know where to take the certification and test. The staff are all busy, so I can only ask you. "
Ye Xuan lightly nodded as he replied with a smile.
"It can't be? He actually wants to take the alchemist examination. "
After receiving Ye Xuan's affirmative answer, everyone was extremely shocked.
"May I ask what rank of Yellow Rank Alchemist you want to take the examination?"
Someone couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Around the seventh level of the Yellow Rank."
Ye Xuan thought for a moment before replying in a low voice.
He originally wanted to take the Profound Rank Alchemist examination, but he was afraid that it would scare them, so he reported a seventh level Yellow Rank.
"Seventh level Yellow Rank?"
"Damn, is this for real? Is there a mistake?"
"Bro, are you that awesome?"
Although Ye Xuan's answer was still very conservative, his words still fiercely shocked everyone, causing the gaze he looked at Ye Xuan to become abnormally brilliant.
They thought that this fellow would at most take the second or third level of the Yellow Rank. Who would have thought that he would directly take the seventh level of the Yellow Rank?
Even in the Alchemist Guild, there weren't many who could reach the seventh level of the Yellow Rank at such a young age.
Where did this guy come from? How could he be so awesome?
"Bro, you can't be bragging, right? Do you know how difficult it is to become a seventh level Yellow Rank Alchemist? In the entire Nine Heavens Star Domain, all of the young alchemists who have reached the seventh level of the Yellow Rank are famous and are known as the geniuses of the alchemy world … He actually wants to take the seventh level of the Yellow Rank?
"Jiang Li, who's always been proud of himself, couldn't help but question Ye Xuan's words.
He had studied hard in the Alchemy Academy for many years, but he still hadn't become an alchemist. This guy actually wanted to take the seventh level of the Yellow Rank the moment he arrived. How could he not be surprised? How could he not question him?
To be able to reach the seventh level of the Yellow Rank at such a young age, which one of them wasn't famous? However, this guy had never even seen one before, not even an alchemist.
"I don't have the leisure to lie to you. When the time comes, you can just watch and see if I can pass the examination."
Ye Xuan said with a smile.
"Alright, we want to see if you're bragging or not!" Let's go, the alchemist examination and certification are not in the outer hall, but in the inner hall … "We'll take you there.
"Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the group of people became interested. They immediately led Ye Xuan through the outer hall and into the inner hall.
There were much fewer people in the inner hall than in the outer hall. Most of the people here were alchemists, and most of them were at the first and second level of the Yellow Rank, while the third and fourth level of the Yellow Rank occupied a small portion. Some of the older middle-aged alchemists had reached the fifth, sixth, and even the seventh level of the Yellow Rank …
In addition, there were also some students and staff from the Alchemist Guild.
"Jiang Li, what are you doing here?"
Just as Ye Xuan and the others arrived, they were stopped by an especially sweet looking young girl.
The young girl looked to be around eighteen or nineteen years old. She had a pleasant face and wore a medicinal robe. There was an exquisite badge on her chest. There were five yellow stars on the badge, indicating her identity as an alchemist.
Her name was Shang Xiaomei, and she was a fifth level Yellow Rank Alchemist. She was also one of the representatives of the Alchemist Guild's students. She was quite famous in the Alchemist Guild and had many suitors.
"Senior Shang, we are here to bring this little brother to take the alchemist examination."
Hearing Shang Xiaomei's question, the leader, Jiang Li, replied with a smile.
"You want to take the alchemist examination?"
Jiang Li's words caused a trace of astonishment to flash through Shang Xiaomei's eyes. Her gaze fell onto Ye Xuan with a trace of doubt in her eyes.
"He is not only a certified alchemist, but also a certified level 7 Yellow Rank alchemist."
Jiang Li seemed to want to show off in front of Shang Xiaomei, so he spoke first.
"Examination to become a level 7 Yellow Rank Alchemist?"
Jiang Li's words caused Shang Xiaomei to be shocked once again. Her eyes were filled with astonishment.
"Yes." Ye Xuan lightly nodded.
"Oh right, senior sister Shang, why are you here?"
Jiang Li ignored Ye Xuan and looked at Shang Xiaomei as he asked with a smile.
He had admired Shang Xiaomei for many years.
"I'm also here to take the examination …"
Shang Xiaomei replied with a smile.
"Senior Shang's alchemy skills have broken through again?"
"Senior Shang was previously a level 5 Yellow Rank Alchemist. Now, she might even be a level 6 or even 7 Yellow Rank Alchemist. She's really too amazing."
Everyone couldn't help but be shocked. Their gazes towards Shang Xiaomei were filled with envy and admiration.
In the face of everyone's exaggeration, Shang Xiaomei only smiled modestly.
This time, she had also come to take the test for a level 7 Yellow Rank Alchemist. She was more or less surprised and curious that this unfamiliar young man, who she had never seen before, wanted to take the test for a level 7 Yellow Rank Alchemist.
Thus, Shang Xiaomei couldn't help but ask with a smile, "Friend, how should I address you?"
"Ye Xuan!" Ye Xuan replied with a smile.
"Student Ye Xuan, which alchemy academy did you study at before?" I've never heard of such a genius that can take the examination for a level 7 Yellow Rank Alchemist. "Shang Xiaomei asked curiously.
"I've never been to the Alchemy Academy. This alchemy technique is self-taught." Ye Xuan lightly replied.
Because alchemists were extremely rare in the universe, in order to nurture more alchemists, the Universe's Alchemist Guild had established many Alchemy Academies in the universe. They recruited students with talent in alchemy to undergo systematic training, striving to nurture them into outstanding alchemists …
Of course, the tuition for the Alchemy Academy was extremely expensive, and ordinary people couldn't afford it.
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard Ye Xuan's reply. Their eyes were filled with deep astonishment and disdain at the same time.
A guy who hadn't studied in the Alchemy Academy actually said that he wanted to take the examination for a level 7 Yellow Rank Alchemist. Wasn't this just bragging?
"Brat, are you playing with us on purpose?"
Jiang Li said snappily.
"Self-taught? Student Ye Xuan, you really know how to joke. "Shang Xiaomei couldn't help but smile and shake her head, thinking that Ye Xuan was joking.
Many people who studied in the Alchemy Academy might not even be able to become alchemists, let alone self-study.
"I'm not joking. I really haven't been to the Alchemy Academy before." Ye Xuan said helplessly.
"It's not that you haven't been to the Alchemy Academy, but that you can't afford it, right? You don't even have a set of alchemy clothes, and you still dare to come to our Alchemist Guild and say that you want to take the alchemist examination?
"Just as Ye Xuan finished speaking, an extremely arrogant and disdainful voice sounded out.
As the voice rang out, under the gazes of the crowd, a handsome man around 1.8 meters tall with an arrogant expression walked over. He wore a medicinal robe and had seven yellow stars on his chest badge.
"Senior Situ!"
Looking at the young man walking over, everyone spoke with respect and fanaticism on their faces.
His name was Situ Wenhao, and he was the young master of the Situ Family. Whether it was his martial arts talent or alchemy talent, he was an expert at the peak of the Undead Stage. At the same time, he was also a level 7 Yellow Rank Alchemist. Amongst the younger generation of Nine Heavens Stars, he could be considered an influential figure and had a large number of followers.
"Little sister Shang, you've really become more and more beautiful recently." How have you been? "
Situ Wenhao walked over and asked with a smile as his gaze fell on Shang Xiaomei.
"Xiaomei is fine. Thank you for your concern, Senior Situ." Shang Xiaomei replied with a smile.
She didn't have a good impression of Situ Wenhao. Although this person's talent in alchemy was not bad, he liked to show off and was very arrogant. He also liked to bully the weak.
"Senior Situ, what are you doing here today?" Jiang Li and the others asked with flattering expressions.
"Recently, I've been in closed-door cultivation and my alchemy skills have improved. I'm here to take the examination for the eighth level of the Yellow Rank Alchemist!"
Situ Wenhao said with a proud expression.
"Yellow rank eight?" "Oh my god, this is too amazing."
"Senior Situ is so awesome!"
Hearing Situ Wenhao's words, everyone could be said to be filled with admiration.
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, smiled indifferently and ignored him.
However, Situ Wenhao obviously didn't have any intention of letting Ye Xuan off. Instead, he wanted to act cool in front of Shang Xiaomei and the others. Therefore, after chatting with Shang Xiaomei and the others for a bit, his gaze fell onto Ye Xuan and he sneered, "A brat who hasn't even been to the Alchemy Academy dares to talk nonsense about taking the seventh level Yellow Rank Alchemist examination? "Brat, aren't you afraid of cutting your tongue when you brag?"
"Let me advise you, this is not a place you should come to. Hurry up and go back, lest you embarrass yourself here!"
