Chapter 1090

(Unedited)



Qing Joming suddenly remembers that this guy was the son of Xin Jong, so how could he know any skills when for 5 years he was considered as a fool. This made Qing Joming feel a bit worried for the young man who just become his friend.

As of this time, he suddenly wanted to step forward and help Xin Ja. But how could he do that when he could suddenly feel two cold eyes staring at his back. He did not have to turn around and know who those eyes belongs to.

In his heart, he is already asking for forgiveness.

"Sorry, my friend… I still value my life after all." That is all he could say in his heart as he showed pity in his eyes while looking at Xin Ja.

How could he not know how hard it is to be an alchemist? Since he became a 2nd tear alchemist, he is able to control the flame to enable him to efficiently concoct any 1st and 2nd tier basic potions, and some of the intermediate potions.

So upon realizing this, he could only lament and at the same time admire the guy's guts to take the alchemy test.

And because of this, in Qing Joming's eyes, his admiration for Xin Ja rose to a new level.

"This guy is really gutsy… I like it," he muttered as a slight smile appears on his face.

Meanwhile, in the stadium, a deep frown could be seen on the faces of two old men. Old Wang has already seen and noticed Xin Ja who is curiously standing in line in the alchemy occupation booth. He is a bit confused why that young guy chooses alchemy, but he did not say anything and just watches to the side with interest.

Meanwhile, Divine Doctor Ba who is wearing a hat to hide his face is also amongst the crowd while looking in Xin Ja's direction. He is frowning because he feels that Xin Ja would be wasting his talent if he falls into the alchemy occupation. He wanted Xin Ja to take up medicine, that way, his medicine skill would improve further.

But just like Old Wang, he decided to wait and see. He has regarded the young man as very talented. The space inventory that the young man gave him is truly precious and he has enjoyed using it especially when harvesting or buying medicinal stuff. It was really an amazing and convenient thing.

In the past, he envies those clans who have such a thing, but now that he owns one, he sometimes could not help but want to flaunt it. But of course, he would do such a thing. Though it is a good thing, space inventory is also something that might kill him.

He did not know what other people might think about it.

But then, when he heard about the news of the famous Ogden auction house auctioning inventory space they named as the 'Mule'. He could not help but think that it is the work of that young man. That is one of the reasons why he is here, right now besides seeing his new disciple.

Xin Ja and the remaining people who have not taken the test numbered around 25.

The man in charge looks at them with slight suspicion, but then pointed at the first five and then asked them to create a healing potion.

The first five almost immediately went to action and began compounding. Xin Ja on the side showed an excited expression on his face as he watches with full attention.

The man noticed this and shook his head. When he saw the name on the paper, a slight frown appears on his face.

The last paper they are given is crafted with rune arrays. If the student applicant lines up in their group, their names would appear on that paper. And among the 20 who have not been called, that young man is the only one showing that expression.

"Is he the famous fool of the Xin manor?" he thought.

He tilted his head to the side and gesture for the person beside him. He then whispered something to that person. It only takes a while for that person to go and come back with some papers on hand.

When the man saw the papers and the information in it plus the comment, his expression slowly changes.

"This guy is recommended by someone… But who?..." he thought but could not think of anyone except for the young man's father of course.

After thinking to this point, he just shook his head and then put the papers on the side.

But before he could do anything, the person who handed him the papers suddenly grabs it and then showed him the two other names. This time, the expression of the man immediately changes. How could he not recognize those family names? He was just a bit baffled by the Xin child that he did not put his mind to it. But now that his assistant pointed it to him, he could not help but feel a bit scared.

This is because those names actually belong to the top ten richest families in the town. So how could he not feel a bit pressured?

The two began to discuss what they should do and how they should proceed from there. And after a while, they came up with a solution.

Soon, one batch after another finished their task and a few of them did not pass and left the area. Xin Ja was part of the last ones who were called.

"For your group, you can just create whatever you wanted..." the man said while showing a courteous nod to the two among the five last youths.

Everyone showed confused expressions on their face, but no one reacted. This is because everyone that is left on the platform has already passed the assessment, so they have no qualms about it.

At this time, a frown appears on Qing Joming's face as he looks at two particular people.

"I see… you those guys are going to use their family's influence even in here?" he grumbled.

At this time, the two youths who belong to the last group showed a proud expression on their faces. In fact, they actually choose to be the last as the two wanted to show off their skills in alchemy. Though their strength is subpar, yet their talent in alchemy is something they have learned from a master.

Ever since they were young, they were taught by a master and both are students of the same master.

Go Fang and Tang Bai both belong to the two famous families in the town, the Go and the Tang clans. But in their family, these two are considered as the lowest members. They have no high attainment because of the low-level cultivation. But because their family still has hope for them, they were taught alchemy as their affinity is with fire.

And because of that, the two began to show their value in the family.

However, that is the only thing they could do. They could only show their value as servants who are tasked to concoct potions for the family.

But when the academy opens up the chance for an education, they immediately grab it. With the support of the academy, the two knew that their standing in the family would soon rise.

And so, they wanted to show off their skills to impress some people in the academy, that way, their path would become smoother. And of course, secretly flaunting their family background is also one of the goals why they decided to be in the last batch.

So when they heard that they can concoct anything they wanted, big smiles immediately appears on their faces.

The two then walk with the group to the table to choose the herbs they could use to show off their skills.

Xin Ja, who is among the group, also began to walk towards the two tables, which is at this time only contains half as many herbs as before.

He could see that names of the herbs and his mind began to work in comparing the herbs he has known and has seen so far.

"So the herbs in here are different… I think these are medium to high-quality herbs." Xin Ja thought as he inspect the herbs.

Then a pill recipe came to his mind as he decided to create as such. In fact, he wanted to create the basic potion just to pass. But since the teacher told them that they can create whatever they want, then he decided to grab this chance to create that pill that has been in his mind using the herbs that look like the ones in the lessons.

"Well, if I did not pass this test, then I could only go to the other occupations…" Xin Ja told himself as he resolve to try and create that pill since the ingredients seem to be all present in this table.

With a glint of excitement in his eyes, Xin Ja quickly gathers the herbs he needed and then quickly walks to the only available space for him to create his pill.

Xin Ja's excitement however was suddenly doused when he was suddenly blocked by a person before he could reach the available space on the table.
