The examination hall for the alchemy trainee exam was set up in this building. Each examination hall was equipped with twenty alchemical furnaces. Each furnace took up quite a bit of s.p.a.ce and the s.p.a.ce around each of them was separated by a yellow line. Each examinee was free to move within their own s.p.a.ces.
On the other side of the hall was a huge pile of various dicinal herbs. Each variety of dicinal herb had been prepared in large quant.i.ties. It was clear that the examinees were to retrieve their own ingredients to concoct their pills.
The process of retrieving dicinal herbs was also a test of an alchemist's basic skills!
Each of the examinees followed their respective numbers and ca to their respective positions. From the tablet at the side, they received instructions on what pill they were to concoct. Because everything was random, no one knew what dicinal pills they would encounter during the exam. Basically, they had to leam every type of dicinal pill, and the ones they would be tested on
ReadNovelFull. were the most basic of dicinal pills.
When it was his turm to receive his instructions, Chu Yunfan looked down to see what he had been given. It was a beginner-level Q Replenishing Pill. This pill's main function was to replenish True Energy.
Modern theories believed that 'True Energy was a kind of bioenergy. This kind of bioenergy could not be recovered quickly. The stronger the martial artist, the faster the recovery speed. Normally, it would be a small matter. But in an ergency, in order to recover 'True Energy quickly, one could use Qi
Replenishing Pill. These pills were divided into beginner, interdiate, and advanced-leveled ones. The effects of each level were very different, and so was the price.
However, no matter which level of QI Replenishing Pill it was, it was a very popular commodity, especially for exploration teams. These exploration teams had to dive into all kinds of places all year round and often encountered so extrely dangerous situations. The Qi Replenishing Pill was a necessary pill or them. This was where the practical portion of the test began. After that, they would have to answer a theory paper. If an examinee pa.s.sed both tests, they would naturally be admitted as alchemy trainees.
Chu Yunfan did not imdiately move to get the ingredients dicine.
Instead, he paused for amont. At this mont, the other examinees had already walked to the mountain of dicinal herbs to choose the ingredients that they wanted to use.
All of them were using all kinds of tools to ensure that the quant.i.ty and size of the ingredients they retrieved would not cause any problems.
However, Chu Yunfan had no use for such contraptions for pill concocting
Instead, he grabbed the dicinal ingredients tightly and shoved them into his dicine basket in a very crude manner.
He only picked from each dicinal ingredient available once and there was never a second ti. In the beginning, no one noticed this. But very soon, the nearby examinees all noticed Chu Yunfan's "crude movents"
Many people thought that Chu Yunfan had gone mad. This was just foolishness. All dicinal pills had an exacting amount of each ingredient. If it was even a ittle off, the end result would be far from the desired one. This was simply foolishness.
However, very quickly, so of the observant examinees discovered that every ti Chu Yunfan grabbed an ingredient, he was grabbing a very accurate
amount.
Although these examinees were unlike Chu Yunfan-who could detemine the exact quant.i.ty with just a single glance and a single grab-they had been alchemy apprentices for more than ten years, so they had a rough idea of the quant.i.ty.
Their hearts were instantly filled with shock. If it was just one or two tis that the quant.i.ty was accurate, then forget it. But every ti, the quant.i.ty was pretty accurate. This was not sothing that could be explained away by good luck
Only now did they understand that this extrely tender-looking high school student alchemy apprentice was definitely not here to make up the numbers. He was indeed skilled.
Many people could not help but feel shocked. To be able to hone his skill to such accuracy, how many tis must Chu Yunfan have practiced grabbing8 dicine to achieve this? It was simply unbelievable.
So even speculated that for him to be able to beco an advanced alchemy apprentice at such a young age, he was most likely not self-taught and must have had a sect behind him.
This kind of ancient thod had not disappeared in this Kunlun Era. On the contrary, it was able to flourish. Many sects had their own unique thods, and many of them had made appearances within the field of alchemy.
It was just that they did not know which alchemy sect he was a disciple of!
Many people were extrely shocked. However, soone retorted, "Tha?'s not right. I have seen many disciples of alchemy sects. Even if they have secret techniques, they would not be able to master them to such an extent at such a young age. If they have secret techniques, they should only increase their speed. It should not be possible for them to master these techniques. Even the many disciples of alchemy sects who have beco official alchemists still need to use tools
This made Chu Yuntan seem even more mysterious in their eyes.
As they were exclaiming in admiration, Chu Yunfan had already grabbed all the dicinal herbs he needed and returned to his position. He lit a fire, put on a pot of water, and threw in the dicinal herbs in order. Everything was as smooth as flowing water, it was as if he did not even need to think. Everything was as if he had rehea.r.s.ed it countless tis.
This caused many people to sigh in amazent. After a long while, they finally rembered that they were also in the midst of their own exam. A lot of ti had pa.s.sed and the ti they had left was not too generous.
Very quickly, everyone finished gathering their ingredients, returned to their seats, and began concocting their respective dicinal pills. At this mont, they did not dare be distracted by Chu Yunfan.
If they were to get distracted during the concoction process, the entire process might fail. Then, they would have to prepare all over again for a very long ti before they could resit the exam.
Chu Yunfan would occasionally pay so attention to the process in front of him. However, along with the mories of the Alchemy Emperor, these things had long been fused into his bone marrow. The entire pill concoction process was practically second-nature to him.
Therefore, he was not like other examinees who were pinching their ears and scratching their cheeks nervously or constantly looking at the ti, trying to grasp every second that pa.s.sed. The experience that Chu Yunfan had obtained from the Alchemy Emperor's mories was much more accurate than any alarm clock.
However, his thoughts drifted away. To him, he only needed to pa.s.s this exam so that he would have proof that he was an alchemy trainee. After that, he would be able to sell the pills he made openly.
Previously, if the transaction between him and Lu Qingxuan were really to be investigated, it would be considered an illegal transaction because he did not have an alchemy trainee's license.
This was also a asure taken by the Federal Governnt to limit the flow of ow-quality pills going into the pill market.
Now that this shackle was about to be removed, it would be much easier for him to earm money. By then, curing his sister would not be a big problem.
Actually, in the Alchemy Emperor's mories, there were dicinal pills that could treat this kind of illness. However, the dicinal ingredients required were sky- high in price. It was simply not sothing that the current Chu
Yunfan could afford. He might as well use moderm gene therapy techniques as they were more convenient and simple.
After all, all roads lead to the sa destination. In the end, as long as he could cure his sister's illness, he did not mind using any thod!
As he daydread, two hours pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye. The alchemical furnace in front of him automatically opened up. A white mist poured out, and a dicinal fragrance a.s.sailed his nostrils.
Qi Nourishnt Pill-success!
