Chapter 203: King Grade
The elder and the young lady looked at him in shock.
"What, do you really want to take the tests to become a noble grade alchemist? Are you sure?" the elder asked in shock, again unable to understand exactly what this young man of only 20 years old was talking about.
How the hell could he be a noble-grade alchemist at such a young age?
'Shit, even geniuses from the Central Continent couldn't do it so simply, he's kidding, right?' he thought.
Tang Yin cocked his head slightly, "Of course I'm sure, why would I come here if I wasn't?" Tang Yin asked with nature.
He knew perfectly well that an alchemist of his age who is in the noble grade is rare in this place, in fact, he doesn't even know if they exist. After all, isn't Wu Lingxia a renowned alchemist among the disciples and respected among the elders? But, even so, she is not a noble-grade alchemist.
That lets it be seen that the status of an alchemist is always high, more so if it is of a high grade.
'If I could make King-grade pills I would have applied for those tests, but... With the alchemical fire I have its barely possible to make the noble grade.' Tang Yin thought with a smile.
'I hope it's enough to buy information from the east properly.' He said to himself, and just then, the elder nodded slightly after coming out of his stupor.
"...This... I don't have the authorization to test a Noble Grade alchemist. Please come with me, I'll take you to someone who can." He said, and the three started walking again, but silence reigned in that place until the young lady at Tang Yin's side spoke.
"Young Master... Are you really a noble grade alchemist?" She asked in shock, and Tang Yin nodded at her.
"Indeed, I am, why?" Tang Yin said as he looked at her, and she nodded slightly as she lowered her head.
"...This is the first time I've seen such a high-grade alchemist so close to me. Besides, if you had said it from the beginning, Lord Gu wouldn't have disrespected you like that, it confuses me." She said doubtfully, and Tang Yin smiled.
"If I had said so, that Gu would have mocked me and not believed me, as you did. He is not as smart as you think, miss. He may have a higher position than you in this organization, but it is merely because of his alchemy, not his intelligence." Tang Yin replied calmly, surprising both of them a little.
The elder in front of them smiled when he heard this.
"That's true, but not exactly like that. It's not because of his personal ability, it's because of his background. he's barely a Three Star Heaven Grade alchemist, how could he have such a high status? That's where his father comes in, who is a Three Star Spirit Grade Alchemist who has a similar status to me in this place." He replied, and Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders upon hearing this.
'Well, it's worse than I thought.' It went through his mind at that moment.
"In this branch, there are a total of 11 Noble Grade Alchemists, who receive the title of the 11 Seats. The status they have within the association is quite high and they receive tokens from mid-level elders, do you think you will be able to become Seat Number 12, Young Man?" Said the elder as he left that question at the end and looked at Tang Yin out of the corner of his eye.
Tang Yin smiled and nodded.
"Naturally. But I don't care about the status, I just want to buy detailed and updated information about the eastern region." Tang Yin replied, and the elder nodded slightly.
'The east, huh.' He thought with a slight frown, but after a moment, he returned to normal.
"If that's the case, I hope to see you get your seat before long." He replied, and after walking a while longer they came to a huge alchemy room.
There were 2 people in this huge room, both elders who were talking back and forth regarding alchemy and whatnot.
"Elders, we have a special case today." Said the elder who was leading Tang Yin as soon as he entered, as he bowed to the two elders present.
They wore alchemist robes that reflected their status.
'Are they King Grade alchemists?' Tang Yin thought as soon as he saw him.
He was a little surprised to be brought to a place like this, but this was better.
When both elders heard this, they stopped talking and looked at the bowed elder.
"Oh, it's you, Little Ma. Long time no see looks like you'll be moving up to a noble grade alchemist before long, hehe, the twelfth seat must be getting ready then." Said one of them as they both stood up.
Ma Feng smiled and nodded.
"Elders, I believe what they say is true. But, not by me. This Young Master says he wants to take the test and claims to be a noble grade alchemist." Ma Feng said as he stepped aside and pointed at Tang Yin.
Both elders were surprised to hear this and looked at Tang Yin.
'So young, how on earth could he be a noble grade alchemist?' They thought to themselves in shock but frowned slightly.
'I don't think someone would be such an idiot to cause a scandal in the association... Could it be that he's telling the truth?' They both thought, and then one of them moved his hand slightly to the right, and his spiritual energy flew to a tray and brought it to his hand.
After that, he did the same with two other trays and put them in front of Tang Yin.
"Tell me the uses for each of these 3 sets of herbs. Also, list to me the differences between them, you have 1 hour to do it." He said quickly and without wasting time.
Even Tang Yin was a bit surprised, but he smiled and looked at the spiritual herbs a bit.
"This one has no feasible use." He said as he pointed to one and then pointed to another, "This one is for antidote pills for the poison of a sixth or seventh realm killer snake... And this one is a spiritual advancement pill, but it's a bit poorly made. Herbs dipped in the fire are no good for spiritual advancement.
A spiritual advancement should be smooth, not explosive, much less should it be explosive in the fire type. A Lotus Spiritual Herb, of any type, might be better to complete that recipe. I don't think I need more, does that answer his test?" Tang Yin said, surprising both elders a bit.
They looked at each other for a moment in shock at Tang Yin's ability to recognize such spiritual herbs in such a short time and give them a more detailed explanation than they thought.
But…
'Would a Lotus Herb be of use to make such a pill? What's wrong with adding the explosive into a spiritual advancement pill?' They thought to themselves in shock, but right now, it was better to focus on the 'flaw' Tang Yin had.
"Why do you say there is no use for this recipe? You don't seem to recognize this set of herbs, so we'll teach you. Although you already passed this test. First, this set of..." They said, but Tang Yin interrupted them for a moment.
"Of herbs is good for making recovery pills, isn't it?" Tang Yin said, and they then frowned. Find your story on mvle,mp _y,r.
"If you recognize it, then why did you fail on purpose?" one of them asked in shock, and Tang Yin shrugged.
"I didn't fail, it's just that it's a failed recipe." Tang Yin replied.
"What do you mean?" both asked in confusion, and Tang Yin smiled.
