Chapter 1601: Storm

"What level did you pass?"

Outside the examination room, an eighth-grade junior alchemist who arrived late asked several seventh-grade and eighth-grade alchemist colleagues who had arrived earlier.

The reason for not going in is simple.

The sound of opening and closing doors can easily disturb candidates.

If it is an ordinary candidate, it would be just a disturbance.

But if the information they gathered was correct, this candidate should be a genius alchemist that appears once in a thousand years, with the potential to reach the ninth rank. The people who follow him in may not be affected, but the first person who opens the door is very likely to cause bad feelings.

If you just come to watch the fun, then this kind of bad feeling is nothing. What's more, it's just opening a door, there's no need to worry about any big grudge.

However, if you come here to recruit disciples.

The consequences of a bad first impression can be said to be quite serious.

Therefore, for a while, no one went in.

No one used their mental power to detect the situation in the examination room.

Because this approach is more impolite than the first approach of pushing the door open.

Therefore, the alchemists present knew nothing about the situation in the examination room. The most they could do was to infer whether Lin Chaoci had passed the exam by the fragrance of the elixir emitted when he was refining the elixir. The other thing they could do was to rely on the news they received when they arrived here, and use that as an answer.

Soon, an eighth-grade intermediate alchemist at the side whispered the answer to the colleague who arrived a step late: "He is currently refining a fourth-grade high-level pill. If he can get full marks in this stage, he will be a fifth-grade alchemist. Logically speaking, this is already the limit, because his fifth grade is different from other fifth-grades. Generally speaking, the refiner of fifth-grade pills should maintain a realm between Dou Ling and Dou Wang. Of course, the higher the better. We all know about this... If he is below Dou Ling, his Dou Qi quality and total Dou Qi will not support him to complete a complete alchemy process, which means he must cheat and try to take shortcuts... In this way, his success rate will decrease. In short, I don't think he can get full marks in this stage."

"The fighting master's cultivation is still too low."

"However, considering his age, this realm is not low."

"He's only eight."

"Wait until I'm fourteen or fifteen."

"I'm afraid he will be the King of Fighting."

"When that happens, passing the fifth-grade alchemist exam will be a piece of cake."

"The difficulty will be much lower than it is now."

At the side, another 8th-rank alchemist took the time to poke the arm of the later 8th-rank alchemist, and said in a teasing tone: "Old Yin, don't tell me that you came here just to watch the fun..."

"I'm definitely not here to watch the fun."

"But you're not here to watch the fun."

"Don't talk about the second one, the eldest one."

"After you go in, don't deliberately raise the price."

"Don't say that we were testing this little guy over there, but you suddenly took advantage of us and started to backstab us, praising him like crazy, making this little guy feel flattered, and then he became your disciple... Let me be frank with you, if you really dare to play this game, don't blame me for beating you, you should understand, right?"

The eighth-rank alchemist named Yin crossed his arms.

The look he gave to the eighth-grade alchemist standing beside him was full of distrust.

However, it's not his fault.

It's because the forest is so big that there are all kinds of birds.

You can’t keep all the true feelings, only tricks can win people’s hearts.

Face to face with a true genius.

Facing a truly great talent.

It is simply unimaginable how proactive these alchemists can be.

All I can say is that high-end ingredients often require the most common cooking methods.

When these alchemists fight over the talent, they are no different from the uncles and aunts buying vegetables in the market. The saying "gentlemen use words instead of hands" is useless here. The most important thing is to snatch the genius back to your own family, especially the five major families, which need this kind of new blood to join.

So, at a distance.

A few descendants of the five major families were also brought here.

However, there is no routine here.

Just a side trip.

In addition, there is far less intrigue among children than among adults, so the atmosphere is naturally more harmonious and there are no quarrels.

After the normal greetings.

They have formed their own small circles.

Just like the group of seventh-grade and eighth-grade alchemists present at the present moment, standing together in twos and threes, sharing the information they know, or chatting. It can only be said that where there are people, there is a world of martial arts. Even if everyone belongs to the big organization of Danta, there are people who are good at playing and those who are not, and there is also a chain of contempt.

Although these have no impact on the children's circle.

"Sister Danchen, you are here too?"

"Sister Cao Ying?"

The two children, both of whom looked under ten years old, were a little surprised at each other.

But after getting over this initial surprise.

We quickly became familiar with each other.

The older one.

That is a little girl who looks about eight or nine years old.

Compared to people of the same age, he is taller.

His expression also became more arrogant.

He folded his arms and said this to the timid little girl opposite him.

The little girl standing opposite her is not very old.

He looks only four or five years old.

This is no longer a question of whether one looks childish or not.

It's pure juvenility.

It's like a small ball.

Especially since the clothes she wore were light blue.

It can also be called off-white.

It's a bit plain, but it actually looks cute on her.

Plus, her voice was very soft.

In comparison, it is undoubtedly more favored.

As for the girl who looked older, who was about eight or nine years old, she naturally knew the character of the little sister of the Dan family. She took the initiative to speak up and took over the topic, saying with a smile: "I heard that a genius appeared here, so I came to see how talented he is!"

That's fine.

But the tone of dissatisfaction was still very obvious.

However, it is normal to have such an expression.

Who isn't a genius these days?

For her, who used to be praised as a genius.

It was very important to see if other people were qualified to use the same title as her, especially when she heard that the other party had refined a fourth-grade elixir at about the same age as her. She became even more interested. She even wanted to compete with the other party to see what method the other party used to refine the fourth-grade elixir. After all, she was only a third-grade alchemist, and her cultivation level of a seven-star fighter did not support her to make further progress.

In fact, this achievement can be achieved.

It has surpassed most people in the world.

Not everyone can reach the level of a seven-star fighter at the age of eight or nine.

But if you compare people, you will die; if you compare goods, you will be thrown away.

In front of an eight-year-old fighting master.

This was also in front of an eight-year-old fourth-grade alchemist.

Be it a seven-star fighter or a third-grade alchemist, none of them are worth mentioning.

However, I'm not jealous.

If your skills are not as good as others, you have nothing to say.

What's more, that's how people are.

When others are only one step ahead of you, you will have endless fighting spirit. When others are two steps ahead of you, you will be jealous of others and question them. But when others are three steps ahead of you, you will instinctively examine yourself to see if you have not done something well that allowed others to surpass you. When others are ten steps ahead of you, you will choose to offer your respect. This is a gap in ability. There is no problem with you, it’s just that the other person is stronger than you. When others are a hundred steps ahead of you, and you can’t even see their backs, you will choose to offer your respect, and regard the other person as your guiding light to chase, and as a benchmark to measure and demand of yourself at all times.

This is what Cao Ying was thinking.

Known as the top genius of the new generation of the Cao family.

This is not exaggerated.

Because that's the truth.

The rest of the Cao family's peers at this age are often at the seventh or eighth stage of Dou Qi, because the Dou Qi stage is for laying the foundation. Being able to make rapid progress proves that the cultivator himself has high talent. A large family like the Cao family will never use some means of forcing growth on their children, not to mention that the Cao family started out with alchemy, so it is useless to have such a high level of cultivation.

As long as their cultivation can support them in refining medicine.

This is enough.

Cao Ying could go this far.

This is inevitable due to her hard work.

In addition, depending on age, Dou Qi also has the effect of developing brain power. This is why many children are smarter than ordinary people when they are young. Precocity is not uncommon in the Dou Qi continent.

How precocious can this be?

Take Xiao Xun'er as an example.

At the age of six, he entered the Xiao family and worked as a spy.

I wouldn't even dare to make up a story like this.

But reality doesn't require logic.

Xiao Xun'er dared to take on this task and was confident that she could complete it. Regardless of whether she was a young and fearless person or not, she was special enough.

Although Cao Ying is not as good as Xiao Xun'er.

Incomparable in every sense.

But in terms of precocity, she is no less than Xiao Xun'er.

In addition, she is one and a half years older than Xiao Xun'er.

This one and a half year gap is indeed not noticeable on a normal day, but as they grow up and enter puberty, it will gradually widen.

Besides, she was older than the little sister from the Dan family next to her.

Moreover, he is more than one year older.

Five and a half years old.

She is nine and a half years old.

The little girl from the Dan family standing next to her is only four years old this year.

I can only say that they are all quite precocious.

They are all very talented.

Because this four-year-old girl from the Dan family is also an alchemist, although she is limited to the primary level of the first grade. But when Cao Ying thinks of this little sister who, with the fourth level of fighting spirit cultivation, controls ordinary fire and refines a primary first-grade pill like frying candy beans like cooking, he feels that he is still growing too slowly.

When can a first-grade primary elixir be made by cooking?

If those alchemy apprentices saw this scene of yours, wouldn't they be pissed to death?

Speaking of this, we have to mention how this first-grade primary elixir was produced, and how the little girl from the Dan family became a first-grade alchemist. It is a series of legendary stories.

This little girl from the Dan family is of high status.

She is the little granddaughter of the head of the Dan family.

The creation of the first-grade elixir originated from a game of house between children. Due to her background, the little granddaughter of the patriarch of the Dan family could easily access the ancestral book of alchemy. In the beginning, the patriarch of the Dan family did not take it seriously, and just used the book of alchemy as a literacy book to enlighten the little girl. He said that this way of enlightenment was a bit novel, but never mind whether it was novel or not, as long as it was useful.

But unexpectedly, the little granddaughter of the Dan family patriarch had learned the alchemy technique at some point, and was even able to use an iron pot and the herbs from the house to fry a pot of pills in the yard. The Dan family patriarch, who had just returned from visiting a friend, saw this and was completely stunned. Then the entire Dan family was alarmed, and even the entire Dan Tower was further alarmed.

Mainly because of so many years.

It's not surprising to use an alchemy furnace to make medicine.

It’s not surprising to use the medicine cauldron to make medicine.

But he was the first one to use a pot to make medicine.

Especially in the later alchemist assessment, this young lady was the only one who took the iron pot to the test, saying that it was convenient for her to use. In the end, she actually succeeded. Although she later began to learn alchemy, the systematic kind of learning, the children of the Dan family can use the alchemy cauldron, the alchemy furnace, and can even make pills with their bare hands.

But you must never use a pot to make elixirs.

Reputation is also important.

But no matter what, it was indeed refined.

This first-grade alchemist badge was naturally awarded to the eldest daughter of the Dan family, who was also the youngest alchemist in the history of Danta, bar none. At the age of four, she directly broke the previous record.

Fortunately it doesn't matter.

And after hearing Cao Ying's confession.

The eldest daughter of the Dan family.

His name is Danchen.

He also smiled and encouraged softly.

However, even if it is encouragement, it is only weak.

The nature of the consolation was more than encouragement: "Sister Cao Ying is a third-grade alchemist. In my opinion, she is already a person that I can never catch up with. This big brother who suddenly appeared is said to be a fourth-grade alchemist, and is about the same age as you, Sister Cao Ying. It is really hard for me to imagine what kind of person he is. Is he like the description in myths and legends, with three heads and six arms?"

"He's not a monster."

Cao Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

I looked around.

Curious, "Where's your old man?"

"Grandpa?"

"I do not know!"

"I'm so young and weak, how can I possibly find Grandpa's whereabouts?"

"I did come here with my grandfather."

“But after getting here, it’s not clear anymore.”

"Sister Cao Ying, do you have something to do with my grandfather?"

"How about I wait until I see Grandpa and then tell him?"

Danchen poked his tender chin.

This innocence is not fake.

But it's real.

This made Cao Ying laugh.

He rubbed Danchen’s little head affectionately.

He explained, "It's nothing, I just want to ask your grandfather if he wants to take this genius as his apprentice. If not, our Cao family will take action... This is also the task my grandfather gave me."

"Are you taking a disciple?"

"Grandpa didn't say that!"

"But I think grandpa won't let this big brother go."

"The premise is that the news is true."

Dan Chen spread his hands.

There was no look of jealousy or anything like that.

Instead, I am full of interest.
