Hearing that Mu Qingxiao was only 20 years old, the lady in purple exclaimed softly. She frowned and said, "Sir, you are really young and promising. However, your teacher's information is not in the Alchemist Guild's records."
"He likes to live in seclusion and doesn't like to be disturbed. Is there no other way?"
"Sir, there are other ways. For example, you can pass the Alchemist Guild's assessment and receive your rank badge. However, the assessment is usually done during the day. There are no higher-ups here at night."
Mu Qingxiao frowned. If possible, he didn't want to waste time participating in the assessment. However, the rank badge had a good effect and could save him a lot of time. He didn't mind waiting for a while.
"If that's the case, I'll come back tomorrow."
Just as Mu Qingxiao was about to leave with the Little Doctor, two old men suddenly walked in. After looking around, they quickly walked towards the two of them.
They stopped in front of Mu Qingxiao and sized him up carefully. One of the old men nodded slightly and exclaimed, "Hello, I am the Guild Master of the Alchemist Guild. I heard that you are already a Level Four Alchemist with Real Fire. Is that true?"
Mu Qingxiao glanced at the two old men's badges. They were both Level Four Alchemists. He nodded slightly and said, "That's right."
Although he had only refined Level Three Elixirs, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was a Level Six Alchemist. If he had the materials to refine a Level Six Elixir, he could definitely refine it.
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire hall fell into a dead silence. The lady in purple who was registering the information didn't even realize that her pen had fallen to the ground. The two old men looked at each other and gasped. They were obviously stunned.
"No … I wonder why you've come to our Alchemist Guild?" The Guild Master asked. There was no trace of arrogance in his tone. It was as if he was talking to an equal.
"I'm here to receive my rank badge. However, I heard from this lady that the assessment starts in the morning. Since that's the case, I can only come back tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, the old man was anxious. He had heard that a 20-year-old Level Four Alchemist had come to the Guild. Therefore, he hurried over to meet him in person. He found that the latter had an extraordinary temperament and was very interested in his alchemy skills.
Not only the Alchemist Guild Master, even the old man beside him was the same.
"Xiao Lan is right. The assessment is in the morning, but little friend doesn't need to make an extra trip. You see, we are all level four alchemists. Let us invigilate the assessment. What do you think?"
Mu Qingxiao naturally had no reason to refuse. He was not the type of person who liked complicated situations. He said, "Alright."
"Young friend, please come with us."
Thus, Mu Qingxiao held the Little Doctor's hand and followed behind them. Under the shocked and incredulous gazes of the people in the hall, they walked into the Guild.
Along the way, the two old men also developed a strong desire for knowledge. They talked about their alchemy experiences, and Mu Qingxiao could answer them all in one go. The two of them were even more certain that the information was true. There was no doubt that he was a Tier Four Alchemist.
A twenty year old fourth rank alchemist. When they received the news earlier, they almost pulled their beards off. What kind of terrifying existence could teach such a monstrous disciple?
In their opinion, being able to become a grade one alchemist at the age of twenty was already considered a genius. The young man in front of them was definitely a monster!
"Young friend, may I know the name of my teacher …"
"He likes a quiet life." Mu Qingxiao was not afraid of offending people and rejected them.
Although there was probably no one in the small Jia Ma Empire who knew of Yao Chen's identity, it was better to be safe than sorry. The Hall of Souls was secretly eyeing him. With his current strength, he was unable to contend with them.
After walking for a few minutes, Mu Qingxiao followed the two old men to the Alchemy Room within the Guild. Just by standing at the door, he could smell the rich medicinal fragrance that permeated the air.
"This is our exclusive Alchemy Room. Young friend, there is no need to stand on ceremony. We have already ordered our staff to prepare the medicinal ingredients."
Entering the Alchemy Room, the walls were embedded with fluorescent stones, illuminating the large Alchemy Room. In the middle of the room, there was an ancient bronze medicinal cauldron. It was a middle grade medicinal cauldron.
A moment later, the staff of the Alchemist Guild respectfully brought the medicinal ingredients in and placed them on the stone table beside the cauldron.
The tray contained four stalks of 50-year-old Ink-Leaf Lotuses, two ripe Snake Saliva Fruits, a piece of 20-year-old Spirit-gathering Grass, and a level two water attribute magic core. These were the materials needed to refine a level four qi-gathering elixir.
The Little Doctor sat beside the two old men, her beautiful eyes staring blankly at Mu Qingxiao in the middle of the Alchemy Room. The two old men each held a teacup, their hearts filled with anticipation.
Sweeping his gaze across the stone table, Mu Qingxiao settled his mind and sat cross-legged in front of the Alchemy Cauldron. With his knowledge and experience, he could perfectly control the flame. Refining a mere level four Qi Gathering Elixir was a piece of cake. All he lacked were the ingredients.
Now that the Alchemist Guild was providing him with the ingredients, it was naturally the best outcome. At the same time, it would save him a lot of time.
Sitting cross-legged in front of the cauldron, Mu Qingxiao raised his hand and a ball of black flame appeared in the center of his palm. The flame did not have any heat, but because of its existence, the air was distorted. Nothing could be more extreme than this.
Under Mu Qingxiao's control, the demonic black flame was transmitted into the cauldron, and the insides of the cauldron immediately began to burn.
At the same time, the two old men sitting on the side almost dropped their teacups as they stared at the black flame in the cauldron, their pupils constricting violently.
The guild master pointed at Mu Qingxiao and said in shock, "The black flame is so demonic. It's definitely a Strange Fire, a Strange Fire!"
The other old man was also stunned. He stared fixedly at Mu Qingxiao, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets, and his breathing quickened.
The Little Doctor's beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at Mu Qingxiao, her gaze filled with extreme gentleness. Her heart could not help but beat faster. In her opinion, the latter's serious expression when he was refining the elixir was many times more handsome than usual.
"It's definitely a Strange Fire. I can't feel its temperature. It's so demonic. It's impossible for it to be a core fire or a beast fire. To be a level four Alchemist at such a young age, and to be able to control such a terrifying Strange Fire so adeptly, he's simply a world-shaking monster!"
The Alchemist Association's guild master's gaze was solemn. The corner of his mouth lifted as he said, "The new generation surpasses the old. I really want to meet little friend Mu's teacher."
The other old man said, "I can't see through this Strange Fire. I don't know what rank it is on the Strange Fire Ranking. With such control, little friend Mu's strength is probably at the Da Dou Shi level."
Da Dou Shi was the limit of his estimation. He didn't even dare to think about it. With such a demonic ability in alchemy, his strength was even more terrifying. Even he himself didn't believe it.
Sitting to the side, the Little Doctor heard the words of the two old men. Her heart was filled with sweetness. If they knew that her man was a Dou Huang, she wondered what kind of expression they would have.
