Chapter 65 - Challenge, Entrance Examination!
"He is really confident!"
"Wooh! Even facing a behemoth figure, he was not even intimidated in a bit!"
"Just where did he come from to have such confidence?"
"Beats me. It's the first time I saw him here."
"Me too. Though I am a regular customer here, this was the first time I saw this young man."
The crowd went into huge uproar as they heard this. They knew that this young man was pretty confident with himself, but it still amazed them that even with such things at stake, he was still nonchalant that seemed this not bothered him at all! Maybe this young has really the ability to back his words up?
"What a bold claim!" Ma Han glared knives at Jin Rou and said, "I really admire your confidence. Indeed, that is an element necessary to become a fully-fledged Martial Cultivator."
"But you see, this is the Alchemy Tower who reigns over the Path Of Alchemy. Of course, my challenge is about Alchemy. Your confidence is nothing if you do not have the power to back it up."
"Seeing how confident you are, it seems that you have a knowledge in Path of Alchemy? or maybe you are a Master Alchemist?"
"Nah." Jin Rou waved his hands gesturing denial and said, "I am not a Master Alchemist."
"What? He is not a Master Alchemist? Then how come he has the guts to accept the challenge?"
"Is he nuts? Probably he already thought that the challenge was alchemy, but still, why did he accept it?"
"Just a dumb hypocrite probably. Just trying to show off in front of the masses."
Whispering and chattering from the crowd could be heard. After knowing that Jin Rou was not even a Master Alchemist and yet dared to offend the high elder who was a step away from 5-star Master Alchemist, they concluded that he was surely pretending and gathering attention for his satisfaction.
An attention seeker, probably a prodigal son.
Yun Hihi grinned as she heard this, she was waiting an opening to mock this man and said, "You are not even a Master Alchemist yet you dared to dip your tongue here? My admiration for your bluff confidence!"
Ma Han joined in and smiled, "You know that I challenge you in terms of Alchemy right? You do not have the right to back off now."
Of course, Ma Han would not let this ordinary looking man on loose now that he already offended her! The arrogant behavior of this young man really infuriated Ma Han to her bones down to the depth of her marrows! In fact, she was already planning what to do with the man since she was already seeing the victory coming her way!
"Of course not." Jin Rou was still nonchalant and chuckled, "Now. What will we do?"
"Excited to be a lowly servant, are you not?" Ma Han smiled and said, "Very well. I don't want to make things difficult for you because I don't want to bully a junior. How about this.."
"We are having an entrance examination for aspiring Master Alchemists today, and since you are not yet one, why don't you take the examination? If you could pass the exam and be an Apprentice Alchemist, then it could be considered your win. If you failed even in any exams, it's my win. How about it?"
Sss~
The crowd sucked a mouthful of cool air as they heard this. Not making things difficult?
Your mother!
They knew that the Entrance Examination would be today, however, they also knew who made the exams, it was Ma Han herself! When she make and supervise the examination, only one or two out of the thousands of examinees would pass the examination and became an Apprentice Alchemist. In fact, there was a time that she did not pass anyone! Even a prince of high-tier empire was not an exception!
Surely, this exam would spell hell for the examinees! Extreme hell!
They looked at the young man with such pity, they already imagined what life would await this man since his lose was guaranteed in their hearts. Not giving a way to back off, this was the fate he would end up.
But after all, it was his arrogant attitude who brought this catastrophe to himself, he could only blame himself for not holding his high horses.
"Just that?" Jin Rou sneered, "And here I thought that is something that would really challenge me. Disappointing."
"Anyways, let's start."
Hearing this blatant disdain right in front of her made the smiling Ma Han gritted her white teeth. This lad was really underestimating her and overestimating himself! Ma Han was already on her stance to attack the young man to shut his annoying mouth up and subdue him but her position was holding her back. After all, no matter what the situation may be, she was still a senior and her opponent was only a junior.
"Young man, your arrogance is annoying me." Ma Han glared knives at Jin Rou and said, "I hope you don't cry later on. Go to the first hall in the right, the other examinees were already there waiting."
After which, Ma Han turned into a mist and disappeared.
Jin Rou smiled and followed the direction stated without saying a word.
The surrounding spectators followed suit as well. After all, this was an interesting thing between the high elder and this unknown young man!
They were already imagining what would be the outcome. Most of them already concluded and bet to Ma Han which was a very obvious and practical choice. After all, Ma Han was already very experienced especially in the Path Of Alchemy.
Of course, there were some experts hidden in the crowd who were far more experienced than anybody else present, concluded that there will be an exciting scene that would unfold and did not decide which party would win immediately. After all, the world has full of miracles and mysteries. One sometimes could not rely to common sense to tell it was the truth and reality.
This challenge was suddenly blew by the wind and instantly became the hot topic of some regions of the Tyy Empire. When most cultivators heard that Master Alchemist Ma Han had issued a challenge to someone in the younger generation, they were surprised and immediately went their way to the Alchemy Tower. In fact, even some of the old undyings in seclusion came into being as they heard this. After all, this was Ma Han who they were speaking of!
Just several minutes past, the first hall was already packed with numerous people wanting to watch the show!
