Lin Xiao kept his mouth shut. Wenren Yu was speaking the truth. Logically, no one would have the courage to go against an organization that could influence the entire land and not only one kingdom. There was only one hope inside his mind, that was the organization would do their test fairly.
Seeing Lin Xiao's concern, Wenren Yu chuckled. "There's no need to worry, Alchemist Association separate itself from any other political and other organization. They stood by themselves and will not get involved in any other quarrel that others might have."
"Really?"
"Yes." do I look like I'm joking?
"While the organization itself is impartial, can you say the same for the people?" Lin Xiao asked.
This time, Wenren Yu was stunned. Most of the time, Lin Xiao didn't look any different from a troublemaker and also a very annoying young man. But at this time, Lin Xiao was able to pinpoint a crucial point that many people never thought before.
Yes, the organization was impartial.
But the people?
Who could say for sure that the people could always remain impartial? There might be some people who tried to put their relatives into the organization or there might be people who were using the organization's influence to kill his enemies. After all, this world was very cruel.
Looking at Lin Xiao's serious expression, Wenren Yu found himself nearly unable to answer. In the end, he only sighed.
"Then, we just need to trust with the management that they have. Even if there's any injustice, there's a limit to what we can do."
Lin Xiao nodded and pointed at the door at the other side, not the door they used to enter the building. "They're coming."
"Hmm?"
The door that Lin Xiao pointed was opened and a middle aged man swept his gaze across the hall. There were some people like Lin Xiao who only came because they wanted to watch for their friends, so the actual number of participants were not that high. Those who wanted to become Alchemist would be holding their plate.
"Follow after me. Those who want to watch and those who want to do the test, both come with me."
"Yes!"
Some of them replied while the others just followed silently. Lin Xiao arched his eyebrows when he sensed the atmosphere grew tenser but he kept silence. These people might be very nervous about the result that they would get.
It didn't take long for them before they reached another large hall. This time, the hall was shaped in circle like an arena but much smaller. Those who only came to watch were directed to sit in the audience seat.
"Good luck."
"Thanks."
Lin Xiao sat on the second row and watched as the middle aged man gave his instruction. The lengthy instruction nearly made him fall asleep, but he still got the key points of what these people were supposed to do.
First, they needed to identify the herbs that was placed in front of them. Because it was mostly just basic herbs, it should be easy for them.
Second, they would make Qi Gathering Pill with the materials that the organization had prepared beforehand.
That was all.
"You can head to your table and begin to write on the paper. After you're done, we'll collect the paper and you can start the second section," the middle aged man explained unhurriedly.
"Any question?"
Silence.
"You may start."
They scrambled to their table including Wenren Yu and Lin Yun. For those who had been living in village for their entire life, it was very easy to identify the herbs. After all, both Wenren Yu and Lin Yun were already used to see herbs on daily basis and create many kinds of medicine.
While pill was different from just mixing herbs and boil them all together, it was still categorized as medicine.
It didn't take long for the two of them to finish writing and the middle aged man collected their paper. They graded on the spot and returned the paper directly. The people were stunned when the paper was shoved back to them. Some of them even broke in tears when they saw their result.
"It's directly shown?"
"So fast!"
Lin Xiao was also stunned by their method. Didn't they usually just wait until the end of the examination before returning the result. But now, it was clearly shoved right to their faces even though they were still in the middle of preparing for the next examination.
Those who got bad score nearly wanted to cry and those with good score were gloating.
'Mental test.'
While it might look like a careless move by the middle aged men, Lin Xiao instantly realized that it was on purpose. They were shown the result to test their own mentality. Would they relax just because their written test was good or would they crumble because their written test was bad?
Making medicine have to be done with calm state of mind. If they were unable to clear their mind within short period of time, they would fail in the second test of making medicine.
'Cruel, but it's quite nice.'
Lin Xiao looked at the center with interest. He truly wanted to know who actually thought of such genius method to test people. With this kind of testing method, it would surely eliminate those who were of weak mentality.
The price to do the examination was not that high, but those from poor family wouldn't be able to do it more than once without feeling the pain. After all, the reasons many people wanted to become an Alchemist was because they needed the resources.
'How about those two?'
Lowering his gaze, Lin Xiao looked at Lin Yun and Wenren Yu. The two of them were still as calm as ever. In fact, they were already used to distraction because of Lin Xiao. After all, it was quite common for Lin Xiao to create a fuss when they were making medicine.
With such brother, Lin Yun had already got used to make medicine under unfavorable condition.
