The lecture hall fell silent as more than fifty students immersed themselves in meditation. Not everyone was as abnormal as Xie Qing, who could learn something in just one second. They had to meditate and master this technique. Xie Qing, on the other hand, cracked his bones and entered meditation to begin awakening his alchemical flame.

The method was simple - clear your mind, then use your Qi to materialize it on your palm, and then use this technique to feed Qi into it until a flame appears. It took the young man only ten seconds. A bright milky-white flame appeared on his hand, and he was a little disappointed.

"Ordinary alchemical flame... well, at least it's of the highest class."

Alchemical flames were divided into nine levels, which were the same as talent levels. There was a similar rating system. Unfortunately, Xie Qing had an ordinary flame, albeit of the highest level.

However, Lu Yin was not surprised by this and was only shocked by how quickly Xie Qing was able to awaken his flame. As a side note, even she had to struggle for ten minutes, and with the help of several mentors, to awaken her flame.

"What an interesting person! Even if the flame is ordinary, he can simply buy it later. He is talented!"

Even Lu Yin, who was usually quite calm, could not help but envy the young man's talent for mastering techniques. If her cultivation talent had been as strong as her alchemy talent, she would have reached the Soul Nascent stage long ago.

In any case, she could not pay too much attention to one student. Lu Yin watched to make sure the students were using the awakening technique correctly.

Two hours passed. Xie Qing, who had already fallen asleep, woke up to the rising noise. Many students were trying hard to awaken their flame, and half of them had succeeded.

"I'm going to die of boredom," thought the young man, and he sighed wearily.

These students were too slow! It took them an hour to master the cultivation technique and another hour to awaken their flame, considering that some of them still had not shown any success.

Xie Qing was annoyed, but Lu Yin diligently helped the students who were having trouble.

"It's okay, don't worry. Not everyone succeeds on the first try. Keep trying until you feel like your shoulders have relaxed," said Lu Yin in her usual gentle voice, and then she nodded toward the students who had already awakened their alchemical flame: "In the chest, there is theoretical knowledge on how to use the flame. Read them for now."

The students nodded and looked at the girl with respect. They had just experienced how to awaken their flame, and they all knew that the girl had succeeded in ten minutes, which was considered a record!

...well, I think these guys just didn't know that the handsome young man with the beautiful appearance and carefree exterior was the one who had set a new record two hours ago.

In any case, time dragged on endlessly, and Xie Qing, who had read the book on the theory of using alchemical flames in ten minutes, fell asleep.

"O-he..."

"He fell asleep?!"

Some students heard the soft snoring and were shocked to discover that Xie Qing had fallen asleep! He was lying on the floor, sleeping carefree and looking damn attractive!

"Die, handsome!"

Lu Yin just chuckled softly, helping the students awaken their flame. She had already noticed that Xie Qing had read that book a long time ago and therefore said nothing.

However for many other students, this was disrespectful to the lecture itself, and they felt displeased. However, who would dare make a sound if Lady Lu said nothing?

"Self-satisfied bastard! Your behavior is an insult to all alchemists!" thought the students.

For many, every second of this class was comparable to gold, and they valued everything they received, expressing their diligence as a sign of respect for alchemy. Therefore, Xie Qing, by falling asleep, made them feel bitter.

Another hour passed, and Xie Qing was still asleep. Some students wanted to roughly wake him up, but they were afraid that this young man with a dangerous aura would kill them.

Almost all the students had finished awakening their alchemical flame, so Lu Yin approached Xie Qing.

"Young man," called Lu Yin, but seeing no reaction, she awkwardly smiled and shook his shoulder: "Wake up. We're continuing the lecture."

"Hmmm?"

Xie Qing suddenly opened his eyes, which glowed gold. Lu Yin stammered and fell silent, feeling an overwhelming aura. She couldn't breathe; her face turned red from lack of oxygen, and fear crept into her heart.

However, she held on and did not show a pitiful look, only looking into his beautiful golden eyes with seriousness.

"It's you..."

Xie Qing finally relaxed, and his eyes returned to their usual color, and the dangerous aura disappeared.

"Haah..."

Lu Yin was finally able to take a deep breath, and she stepped back five steps. The other students lost their voices. From their perspective, they saw only that the young man opened his eyes, and Lu Yin blushed. Therefore, they clearly understood something different!

"Healer Lu... blushed?!"

For many, today the clouds had fallen from the high heavens.

***

The lecture continued as usual, with Lu Yin returning to her usual expression and continuing to explain how to control the flame.

"Many of you have already read this, but I will repeat and show by example how to control the flame," said Lu Yin, and she smiled, waving her hand: "The flame appears only after you think about making it appear. And that's not all. The flame will go out if you don't feed it Qi, so don't lose concentration. Now, please try to summon it again."

After this, the lecture hall was filled with abundant Qi. Everyone tried to summon the flame again, and most succeeded after the tenth attempt, while some even tried for half an hour.

"Boring..."

Xie Qing, on the other hand, was able to do this in the first insignificant attempt. He didn't even have to concentrate, as Lu Yin had said. He just wanted it, and the flame appeared; it burned as long as he wanted.

Lu Yin noticed this and sighed, shaking her head. She was no longer surprised by his abilities and decided to simply get used to it.

With her gentle voice, she instructed the students on how to properly and without unnecessary expense use their alchemical flame. The girl taught well, and even the dumbest student was able to easily learn it. Xie Qing, on the other hand, was out of the students' attention, as they were too focused on maintaining the influence of their flame.

"Here's your task - try to maintain the flame for five minutes. If you can do this, then we can move on to pill concocting!"

"Yes, Healer Lu!"

The students excitedly nodded like chickens pecking at the grain and then began to restore their Qi. Xie Qing, on the other hand, slightly raised an eyebrow, noticing Lu Yin's gaze on him.

"What?"

Once, this girl had been his idol, and of course, he had felt sympathy for her, but now meeting her gaze was not as exciting as it used to be.

"It seems that this year someone very talented has appeared," the girl's voice sounded in his head, although her mouth was closed.

"I suppose so," a smile appeared on Xie Qing's face.

This was a common "Telepathy" technique that Xie Qing himself possessed. Only Core Formation cultivators could use it.

Lu Yin was silent for a moment and then said, "I'll give you another task. Try to maintain the fire at its most aggressive level for half an hour. If you can do this, then I'll talk about giving you access to advanced alchemy lessons."

"Oh?"

Xie Qing raised an eyebrow in surprise. Even for him, this reward sounded tempting. Advanced alchemy lessons could be obtained only by a limited circle of people, regardless of how wealthy they were.

Therefore, Xie Qing was a little excited. He nodded and channeled more Qi, making his flame more aggressive.

Soon, the students around him had difficulty sitting, so Lu Yin waved her hand and erected a barrier so that Xie Qing would not disturb the other students.

Out of the corner of her eye, she watched Xie Qing and nodded approvingly.

"Aggressive flame and the Qi consumption is very accurate, no random bursts!"

It was at this level of flame control that one could be considered a true alchemist. It was important to maintain the same level of flame from beginning to end so that the pill would not turn into charcoal in case of an accident.

"I'm not experiencing any difficulties," thought Xie Qing.

His cultivation technique easily handled the Qi consumption, so he didn't even have to strain himself.

Looking at the crowd of students, Xie Qing sighed.

"Ah, the Heavens have blessed this young master too much! Look at these guys; they can't even compare to one-tenth of my talent!"
