You don't know alchemy.
Zong Qi was the highest ranked alchemist in the entire Yingtian Academy. He, who had already become a tier 4 alchemist, stood at the peak of the entire Great Desolate Empire. The only person who could compare with him was Dugu Fengyun, who was also a tier 4 alchemist.
Even a King level expert would have to be respectful to a Grade Four Alchemist. After all, a Grade Four Alchemist could produce a King level expert if he didn't care about the cost!
In Yingtian Academy, the ones with the highest status were the two old ancestors who were elusive and elusive. Following closely behind them was Zong Qi!
After parting ways with Liu Yue 'er, Gu Xuan took the token from the Purple Wind Martial Sect and headed straight to the Alchemy Pavilion.
The Alchemy Pavilion was located near the Ten Thousand Treasure Hall. It was also an important place in the Yingtian Academy. If the students of the academy needed any special pills, they could pay Treasure Points for the alchemy masters in the Alchemy Pavilion to refine them.
One by one, the youths lined up outside with solemn expressions. There were more than ten people in the line, but there was no noise at all.
The status of an alchemist was already very prestigious. If an ordinary person were to offend them, they would be in endless trouble. Not only was Zong Qi a master among the alchemists, he also had a weird personality. There was once someone who shouted loudly in the Alchemy Pavilion and was slapped to death by Zong Qi impatiently.
Not only did that person's family not dare to blame Zong Qi, they even sold off some of their family's property to buy a fourth rank spirit herb as an apology. They knelt down and begged Zong Qi to accept it. Only when Zong Qi impatiently accepted the apology did the family feel completely relieved.
The power of a Tier 4 Alchemist was truly too terrifying.
At the entrance of the Alchemy Pavilion, there was a fair-skinned young lady who was in charge of recording the requirements of these students.
Gu Xuan walked forward and handed the token to the woman.
"Are you here to work as a handyman?" The young girl glanced at the token, then her clear eyes swept over Gu Xuan. "Did you pass the test to become a Tier One Alchemist, or did you pass the Alchemy Institute?"
Gu Xuan was stunned. In the Great Desolate Dynasty, alchemists had to be tested. Only after passing the test could one become a true alchemist and be given an alchemist badge. This was also to prevent people from pretending to be alchemists and swindling others.
But Gu Xuan had never gone to a proper place to take the test. In that case, he really could not be considered an alchemist. A dignified Alchemy Sovereign was actually not an alchemist. This was truly a bit of a joke.
"Don't tell me you're not even an apprentice alchemist?" The young girl opened her mouth wide in surprise and looked at Gu Xuan in disbelief.
"Seems like it." Gu Xuan spread his hands and smiled helplessly in his heart. Without an alchemist badge, even if he said that he was an alchemist, it was likely that he would attract even more disdain. Therefore, it was better to admit defeat.
"You're really … Sigh, you're not even an apprentice alchemist. How are you going to do odd jobs for Master Zong Qi? You know, even a few Tier 1 alchemist students can't reach Master Zong Qi's standards." The girl said helplessly, "I think you should ask your teacher for another task."
"There's no need. How would we know if we don't try?" Gu Xuan smiled and shook his head, "Since a Tier 1 alchemist can't do it, maybe I can?"
The students in the queue looked at Gu Xuan with disdain. Many of them had tried to be Master Zong Qi's assistant. However, in the face of Master Zong Qi's request, these people who were usually very familiar with alchemy theories were like fools. They were at a loss and could only pack their bags and leave.
Gu Xuan was not even an apprentice alchemist. He actually did not know his limits and actually wanted to take on this person. He was really asking for humiliation.
Many people were full of confidence before taking on the task, thinking that they were different from the rest. It was only until the end that they were completely dumbfounded.
"Sigh, up to you." The young girl shook her head helplessly and gave Gu Xuan a look that said, "Come with me."
Following the young girl into the Alchemy Pavilion, a wave of medicinal fragrance filled the air and entered Gu Xuan's nose, making him somewhat intoxicated. Ever since he was reborn, alchemy had only become an auxiliary to his cultivation. He had even forgotten the joy of alchemy.
"Master Mu Ling!"
The two of them arrived at the most central alchemy room. The apprentice alchemist guarding the door respectfully bowed to the young girl.
Gu Xuan subconsciously glanced at Mu Ling's chest and actually discovered that the latter was wearing a grade two alchemist badge. His eyebrows slightly raised.
This young girl was only a few years older than him and looked to be in her early twenties. She was actually able to reach grade two. She was also a rare genius.
"Master Zong Qi is my master. His personality is rather fiery. After you enter, you must be careful." Mu Ling pointed at the door and kindly reminded him.
"Many thanks." Gu Xuan smiled at Mu Ling and pushed the door open.
This was a huge alchemy room filled with all kinds of medicinal dregs and waste. In the center, a dirty middle-aged man sat and was playing with a purplish-red fruit.
Hearing the sound, Zong Qi looked towards Gu Xuan. When he discovered that the latter was not wearing an alchemist badge, his eyebrows tightly knitted together.
Gu Xuan took out his token and introduced, "I'm here to …"
"Enough." Zong Qi waved his hand and impatiently interrupted Gu Xuan. "Aren't you just here to do odd jobs for me? I'm not blind."
Zong Qi couldn't be bothered to take another glance at Gu Xuan and continued to study the fruit in his hand. He muttered with slight annoyance, "They actually sent someone who isn't even an apprentice alchemist. The academy is becoming more and more perfunctory towards me."
Gu Xuan rubbed his nose and stood at the side without saying anything. Looks like this' alchemist master 'isn't very friendly to me.
Zong Qi studied it for a moment before flipping his hand. A ball of dark yellow flames appeared in his palm. He casually tossed it out and it transformed into a cauldron.
Zong Qi had a serious expression as he controlled the flames and constantly refined the fruit.
Pu!
Not long after, Zong Qi seemed to have carelessly controlled the flames and the fruit was burned to ashes by the high temperature.
"Hmph!"
Zong Qi heavily snorted with a slightly gloomy expression. He withdrew the flames and swept the ashes to the side.
Gu Xuan lightly shook his head. That fruit was also a grade four alchemist. As a grade four alchemist, Zong Qi was actually unable to refine a grade four elixir. He was simply too weak.
Seeing Gu Xuan's expression, the anger on Zong Qi's face intensified. "What are you standing there for? I was refining the elixir just now. Don't you know what you're supposed to do as an assistant? Who sent you here? You caused my alchemy to fail. Do you know how much responsibility you have to bear? "
Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled. This Zong Qi was rather interesting. He had failed in refining the elixir, yet he blamed him for watching from the side. Since this person thought that he wasn't even an apprentice alchemist, how could he interfere with a grade four alchemist refining elixir?
