C77 (2/2)
The Alchemist Association was located at the northernmost area of Hun Tian City, not too far from the inn where Ye Xingchen resided.
Looking from afar, the Alchemist Association looked very grand. The entire Alchemist Association was five stories tall, and in front of the Alchemist Association was a square area. Alchemists were all conversing with each other, and around the square was a fence that prevented ordinary people from getting close.
Furthermore, even without the fences, no one would dare to approach the plaza because there were many alchemists in the Alchemist Association, and they were famous for not daring to offend any alchemists on the streets.
Even the four great powers and the City Lord Palace did not dare to provoke the Alchemist Association, of course, Heavenly Profound Chamber of Commerce did not fear the Alchemist Association, but they would not take the initiative to provoke it. In general, the management of the Alchemist Association was very lax, but as long as the Alchemist Association was in trouble, many alchemists would come forward to help.
Ye Xingchen glanced at the alchemists in the Alchemist Association's plaza, and then walked into the pavilion, entering the first floor of the pavilion. It was extremely quiet inside, with only a few staff members inside.
Seeing Ye Xingchen walk in, the employee asked, ”Excuse me, are you here to join the Alchemist Association?”
”Yes, I want to join the Alchemist Association. I wonder what methods you have?” Ye Xingchen said in a low voice.
”As long as you pass the Alchemist Association's test, you will be able to join the Alchemist Association.” The staff continued to explain.
”Alright, can I take the test now?” Ye Xingchen asked.
Our Alchemist Association's test is only held once ten people will begin. Eight people are already waiting in front of you, adding that you are one of the nine, we'll begin once more. After which, the staff led Ye Xingchen to the second floor.
On the second floor, Ye Xingchen was led to a very large room. There were eight young men and one White-Haired Old Man, who seemed to be the person who set the test for the Alchemist Association, while the other eight were people who wanted to join the Alchemist Association.
White-Haired Old Man glanced at Ye Xingchen, indicating for him to sit down and wait, while the other eight looked at Ye Xingchen.
Although they were all young, they were all close to thirty years old, and Ye Xingchen didn't even look to be twenty.
”Bro, do you also want to join the Alchemist Association?” A simple and honest man beside Ye Xingchen laughed and said.
Ye Xingchen nodded, ”Yes.”
Just at this time, a male voice sounded out in Ye Xingchen's ears, ”Hmph, aren't you looking at yourself? You're already an alchemist at such a young age? Then have all of us lived for nothing? Wanting to join the Alchemist Association is not that simple, don't make a fool of yourself. ”
Ye Xingchen looked towards the source of the voice. It was a young man in white, with a disdainful smile on his face. He looked at, but Ye Xingchen ignored him and quietly sat at the side.
After a while, the last person came in. Seeing that everyone was here, the White-Haired Old Man stood up and said to everyone with a smile, ”Hello everyone, I am the main organizer of this test. This test is also very simple, it is to be able to refine a Grade One Pill, even the most ordinary of Grade One Pill, as long as it can be refined, congratulations, you will be a member of the Alchemist Association.”
The pellet that was refined this time is called the Strength Gathering Pill, it is a first grade ordinary pellet, there are a total of ten small rooms, each of them pick a small room, there are all kinds of alchemical instruments, and also medicinal herbs, but there is only one pellet, if the refining fails, there is no chance. The White-Haired Old Man continued.
”Everyone, choose your room now. After you finish refining, you can show it to me. Of course, all of you need not think of cheating. If my Alchemist Association finds out, it will be very miserable.” With that said, White-Haired Old Man sat on the armchair and closed his eyes to rest.
”Little brother, I'll be going in first. I wish you good luck.” The good-for-nothing fatty who was talking to Ye Xingchen said to him before choosing a small room to enter.
The White-robed Man who was filled with disdain towards Ye Xingchen also glanced at him once before walking into the small room.
Ye Xingchen chose a room with number eight and entered.
”Old Bai, I wonder how many out of ten people will be able to successfully join the Alchemist Association this time around?” Outside, a worker laughed and asked White-Haired Old Man who was resting with his eyes closed.
”It would be great if there were two or three, but I don't think there will be more than two.” Old Bai chuckled.
”The conditions to become an alchemist are too harsh. Otherwise, our Alchemist Association wouldn't be in such dire straits.” The staff said.
The Alchemist Association is the same as the Heavenly Profound Chamber of Commerce. There are branches in every city in the entire continent. As long as you become a member of the Alchemist Association, the Alchemist Association in every city will acknowledge you.
But because the requirements to become an alchemist were too harsh, even though the Alchemist Association had an alchemist, they were still too few.
As for what the staff members said about the decline of the Alchemist Association, the outsiders would not think so. In their eyes, the Alchemist Association was still an unreachable existence.
