"Haha, this old man is slow-witted. Along the way, I have forgotten to ask for your name. Please don't take offense. Haha."
The chairman chuckled as the few of them walked forward. His face revealed an embarrassed expression as he turned his head and asked Xiao Yan with a smile.
Xiao Yan also returned the greeting and smiled. He cupped his hands together towards the chairman and said:
"I am Yan Xiao."
When Xiao Yan's words left his mouth, the chairman and the other two were slightly startled. Immediately, a surprised expression surged onto their faces. The gazes with which they looked at Xiao Yan were filled with an increasingly disbelieving expression.
"You are that Yan Xiao who fought with the ancestor of the Li clan, Li Gan, half a month ago?"
It was a long while later before the chairman opened his mouth and continued to ask Xiao Yan with a shocked tone. Xiao Yan also smiled and nodded his head in acknowledgement.
"Hiss ~"
Although they were already mentally prepared, when they saw Xiao Yan nod his head in acknowledgement at this moment, the three of them could not help but emit a wave of cold air.
No matter how they thought about it, they would never have imagined that the genius alchemist that they had met today would actually be Yan Xiao, whose name had recently shaken the entire Ancient Wild City!
"Tsk tsk, this is really unexpected! Little friend Yan Xiao possessed such talent at such a young age. Not only did he possess great strength, but even his achievements in alchemy were also so shocking! Little friend Yan Xiao is really a talented person, a genius blessed by the heavens! "
At this moment, even the deputy chairman, Chi Lin, who was following beside the chairman, could not help but let out waves of exclamations from his mouth. The gaze with which he looked at Xiao Yan was as though he was looking at a monster.
Xiao Yan was actually able to walk so far on the path of cultivation and alchemy at such a young age. This point involuntarily caused these old fellows, who had spent their entire lives in order to reach this step, to feel ashamed in their hearts!
When they thought of this, chairman Gu Li and vice-chairman Chi Lin could not help but look at each other. However, they could see a bitter smile in each other's eyes. Xiao Yan's excellence really made these two old fellows feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts!
The two of them felt the same way. How could Wei Yi let it go? The more outstanding Xiao Yan was, the more unjust he felt.
He had spent his entire life to get to where he was today. How could this brat in front of him obtain it so easily?
This also caused the resentment in Wei Yi's heart to become even denser when he looked at Xiao Yan's eyes.
However, if he knew that Xiao Yan's current strength and vast alchemy foundation had been painstakingly obtained, he probably wouldn't have the confidence to compete with Xiao Yan anymore!
There was no shortcut on the path of training. The reason why Xiao Yan was able to obtain his current achievement was merely because he had relied on the tough perseverance that he had accumulated during his training. The difficulties and hardships along the way, the life and death battles, were all not training.
If Xiao Yan hadn't swallowed the 'Heavenly Flame', how could he have his current strength? However, how could swallowing a 'Heavenly Flame' be so easy? One didn't know how many life and death situations were involved. If it wasn't for Xiao Yan's extraordinary perseverance, it was likely that he would have fallen on the path of cultivation long ago!
Xiao Yan's achievements were all obtained by risking his life. They were all obtained by Xiao Yan by enduring pain and torture that an ordinary person would not be able to endure. How could Wei Yi compare with him on this point!
…
A moment later, the group of five had already arrived in front of a thick black mysterious door. This was also the first goal of Xiao Yan's trip.
"Ke ke, this high grade examination room has indeed not been used for many years. Now that I have come here again, I can't help but recall some of the outstanding geniuses of the past. Ke ke."
Gu Li sighed emotionally as he laughed. Immediately, the aura all over his body suddenly shook. He clenched his right hand and pure Dou Qi surged out of his palm like spring water. Immediately, his palm smashed onto the black mysterious door.
Following a wave of water-like energy ripples that slowly spread apart, a layer of faint cream-white glow appeared on the surface of the black mysterious door.
The mysterious door also slowly became illusionary in this space the moment this layer of cream-white glow appeared. Finally, it completely disappeared.
"Ke ke, I have caused Xiao Yan to laugh. This high grade Spirit Testing Tablet is extremely important to our Alchemist Association. It is also because it is too expensive to make. Therefore, we have no choice but to carefully protect it. Ke ke."
The black mysterious door had also completely disappeared after his voice sounded. All that remained was an empty doorway. Gu Li waved his large sleeve and made an inviting gesture. Xiao Yan also smiled. He exchanged glances with Qin Zhonghu before taking the lead and entering.
This large hall was not much different from the examination hall from earlier. However, it had not been used for a long time, causing a layer of dust to accumulate everywhere.
Gu Li, who had followed closely behind, could not help but reveal a bitter smile when he saw this. He waved his large sleeve and an invisible force suddenly shot out, sweeping away all the dust on the ground.
Xiao Yan ignored this. His gaze had landed on the dark-black stone tablet in the middle of the hall ever since he had entered.
High grade Spirit Testing Tablet!
Without any explanation, Xiao Yan had already walked in front of the Spirit Testing Tablet before the people behind him had all stepped into the hall.
Xiao Yan was already incomparably clear on how to use the Spirit Testing Tablet. However, when facing this Spirit Testing Tablet, Xiao Yan did not dare to directly use his Spiritual Strength to bombard it.
He was able to sense that there was an extremely mysterious array within this Spirit Testing Tablet. However, with his current strength, he was unable to investigate it. It was likely that even if Xiao Yan poured all of his Spiritual Strength into this Spirit Testing Tablet, it would not be damaged in the slightest.
His right hand extended out from his sleeve. In his mind, the endless Spiritual Strength that was like an ocean transformed into a surging river at this moment and completely gathered on Xiao Yan's right palm.
At the same time, Xiao Yan's right palm slowly came together with the Spirit Testing Tablet.
In an instant, Xiao Yan's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened wide. The Spirit Testing Tablet was like a water pump, sucking out all of Xiao Yan's Spiritual Strength that was like a tidal wave out of his body in an instant. At this moment, Xiao Yan could not help but feel a wave of dizziness in his mind. His entire body felt as if it was about to collapse in an instant, causing Xiao Yan to involuntarily take half a step back.
When Xiao Yan withdrew, the surging Spiritual Strength once again returned to Xiao Yan's body. Xiao Yan instantly regained his consciousness and stabilized his retreating body. His face was still filled with lingering fear as he looked at the Spirit Testing Tablet from before.
In the next instant, four large golden words slowly appeared in front of Xiao Yan's eyes.
Second level Emperor Realm!
