"Proof?" The middle-aged man was taken aback, and his rigid face broke into a rare smile. "As expected of her student! You have her demeanor from back in the day. Hmm, how do you want me to prove it? "
Both Guan Qingheng and Shi Mingbei had a dazed look on their faces. For the usually stern Master to have such an expression, it was too unbelievable. What was even more unbelievable was that someone wanted them to prove their identity as a student of May's Night Ridge!
That's right, how do I prove it? Ye Chong began to think.
The middle-aged man looked at Ye Chong with interest.
If Lunatic Guan was really from May's Night Ridge, then she must belong to that school of alchemy. If this man was really from May's Night Ridge, then he must belong to the same school of alchemy as Lunatic Guan.
Lunatic Guan's records were varied, and there were many things about other schools, such as Green Tempest. Ye Chong had studied more about alchemy before he began to understand what she truly belonged to.
Since they were from the same school, then he must have some understanding of these things.
"I'll ask you three questions. If you can answer them, I'll acknowledge your identity as a student of May's Night Ridge," Ye Chong said calmly, without a trace of embarrassment. This technical knowledge couldn't be faked.
"I see." The middle-aged man looked interested. "Alright, ask away." Guan Qingheng and Shi Mingbei were both sweating profusely, looking at the middle-aged man blankly.
Heavens, what was wrong with this world? The two of them looked at each other, speechless.
"The questions must not be too simple," Ye Chong thought to himself. However, he quickly threw out his first question. "What is the core essence of exchanging alchemy?"
Ye Chong only understood this question after studying the chip for a long time. In terms of difficulty, it was not the most difficult in the chip, but Ye Chong believed that it touched upon the core of Lunatic Guan's alchemy system.
Silence, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop on the ground!
The middle-aged man's expression was serious. He lowered his head, his eyes flashing. Guan Qingheng and Shi Mingbei, who knew the middle-aged man well, knew that this meant that the middle-aged man was trying his best to think.
Unfortunately, neither Guan Qingheng nor Shi Mingbei paid attention to the middle-aged man. They were also deep in thought. Even though both of them were far from the middle-aged man in terms of alchemy, they were still far superior to the average alchemist. The two of them tried to answer this question.
Ten minutes later, the three of them were still like clay statues, not moving at all.
Thirty minutes passed. Guan Qingheng's forehead was covered in sweat, and Shi Mingbei's originally pale face was drained of all color. The middle-aged man had a bitter expression on his face, and the ground beneath his feet had already become a shallow pit.
An hour passed, and of the three, Guan Qingheng was the first to give up. His entire body looked as if he had just been fished out of the water, and his originally delicate face had lost all color. Thinking at high speed for a long period of time was very taxing on one's stamina. He sat down on the ground, panting heavily. He did not care about his manners, but looked at Ye Chong with burning eyes.
After another half an hour, Shi Mingbei also gave up dejectedly. Her beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment. Where did this young man come from? Was his teacher really someone from the ridge? In her eyes, this youth seemed to be even more enigmatic and unfathomable.
Three hours later, the middle-aged man sighed deeply. His eyes regained their clarity, and he shook his head. "I'll need about half a year of research to answer this question, and that's assuming everything goes well. I can't answer you now. "He sounded exhausted. The long examination just now had left him feeling more tired than ever.
Ye Chong was very patient. He watched the middle-aged man think for three hours, but did not grow impatient. His expression remained calm and collected.
Ye Chong shook his head. "You can't answer this question. The next two questions are even more difficult. I'm sorry, but you can't answer them to prove your identity. " The calm words made the middle-aged man blush. However, the middle-aged man was still able to control himself, and quickly returned to normal.
Ye Chong was not being sarcastic. He was just stating a fact. The next two questions were so difficult that even he did not fully understand them. He had only planned to use them as the finale, and did not expect them to be able to answer even the first question.
Ye Chong was disappointed that they could not even answer such a simple question. He dismissed the possibility that the middle-aged man was from May's Night Ridge. He believed that if they were really from Lunatic Guan's faction, even if they were not as skilled as Lunatic Guan, they would still be able to answer the question.
Ye Chong did not expect May's Night Ridge to be so different from what he had imagined.
However, Ye Chong's mind was occupied with another question. What was the purpose of these three approaching him? Ye Chong became cautious.
Especially that woman, who had suddenly attacked him. Ye Chong could see the hatred in her eyes clearly. He knew people like her well. If given the chance, she would not hesitate to take revenge on him.
Ye Chong had thought that they might be from May's Night Ridge, and did not want to escalate the situation. Now that he was certain that they were not from May's Night Ridge, Ye Chong could not help but feel the urge to kill them. He did not want to leave any hidden dangers for himself.
Ye Chong adjusted his muscles to their peak condition. He looked at the three people like they were his prey.
Guan Qingheng's years of frustration dissipated in an instant. He felt a sense of satisfaction that he had never felt before. If this young man was really her student, then the Guan Family could be saved. Guan Qingheng believed that he would not ignore the Guan Family's current situation. Perhaps this was why she had asked her student to come back.
Unlike the other two, he was a true member of the Guan Family. He did not know the answer to Ye Chong's question, but it confirmed his suspicions. He remembered clearly that before she left the Guan Family, the last project she left behind was about exchanging alchemy. He did not expect her to have such a deep understanding of it.
As expected of her!
Even this student of hers was not to be trifled with! Guan Qingheng looked at Ye Chong with admiration. The more he looked at him, the more Guan Qingheng liked him.
"Tsk tsk, where else can I find such a talented young man? By the way, he'll probably be the leader of the Guan Family in the future. "
Guan Qingheng's eyes never left Ye Chong, as if glued to him.
Huh, what's wrong with him?
Guan Qingheng was shocked. Killing intent! The word flashed through his mind, and he could not help but feel a little surprised. However, he had always been quick-witted. In an instant, he grasped the key point.
"Wait!" In a moment of desperation, Guan Qingheng shouted.
Everyone's eyes were on Guan Qingheng. Ye Chong, who was about to make a move, hesitated.
"Uhhh, that, that …" Guan Qingheng stammered, not knowing what to say. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and his tone immediately became calm. "I've thought of a way to prove our identities."
"Oh?" Ye Chong looked at Guan Qingheng. The other two looked at Guan Qingheng as well, waiting to see what he had come up with.
"If your teacher is the same person as the one we're talking about, I believe you should know about these things." A hint of pride appeared on Guan Qingheng's face.
Ye Chong looked at Guan Qingheng quietly.
Guan Qingheng's eyes were focused on Ye Chong, and he slowly uttered a long list of names, "Daisy Red, Guhe solution, Blue Thread Cultivation, Bilayer Liquid Tempering!"
With each name Guan Qingheng uttered, the middle-aged man's expression grew more respectful. Shi Mingbei, on the other hand, was confused. She had never heard of these things before.
Ye Chong's calm face showed nothing. Guan Qingheng grew nervous. If this young man had never heard of these things, then …
"What can these prove?" Ye Chong asked.
It was not Guan Qingheng who explained, but the middle-aged man. His voice was filled with respect as he said, "If you're really her student, I believe you've heard of these things. This is the most outstanding invention of the Guan Family in May's Night Ridge in the last century. If I remember correctly, the Bilayer Liquid Tempering is your teacher's masterpiece. "
Shi Mingbei looked enlightened, and immediately grew wary. The Shi Family had only been in May's Night Ridge for a short time. In terms of foundation, they could not compare to an ancient family like the Guan Family.
Ye Chong looked at the three of them quietly. The three of them could not help but feel nervous.
Guan Qingheng's heart was in his throat. His mouth was dry, and his throat was tight.
"Alright, you've provided proof." Ye Chong nodded. The names Guan Qingheng mentioned were all recorded in Lunatic Guan's chip. They had a special place in the chip. Besides, from the data recorded in the chip, it could be seen that Lunatic Guan had never stopped improving these techniques over the years. The most improved technique was the Bilayer Liquid Tempering technique. Ye Chong had seen more than five different versions of it, and the last version was clearly influenced by the alchemy system of the Five Galaxies.
Ye Chong did not expect them to be the real Guan Family's techniques. He finally understood the system classification in the chip. Many of the things he did not understand before now became clear.
So, he nodded.
In that moment, Guan Qingheng felt like he was drowning in happiness! (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please log on to WWW .CMFU. com. More chapters. Support the author. Support original reading!)
