Upon closer thought, Liang Sheng’s response caused less damage and was more straightforward than the answers they’d come up with themselves.
Unable to hide his admiration, one of the Golden Core Daoists at the side finally sighed, his gaze complicated. “Brilliant,” he murmured.
His praise disrupted the previous calm, and they all started discussing directly in front of him, even arguing over if it could be done better.
This made Liang Sheng somewhat uncomfortable. Why weren’t they questioning him further? Why were they discussing this among themselves? Where was their professional conduct?
It was no wonder that Liang Sheng was agitated; the way Peak Master Jin Jun was looking at him was becoming increasingly odd, as if he were the old man’s grandson.
This strange feeling made Liang Sheng increasingly restless. After a while, the Golden Core Daoists finally stopped their discussion, realizing that their conduct seemed inappropriate.
After all, it was unbecoming for Golden Core Daoists to act this way in front of a Foundation Establishment Disciple. One of them could not help but lightly scold the person who had asked the question earlier.
If not for this, how would they have lost their decorum in front of a disciple? Their debate resumed as they sought to shift blame onto one another.
Liang Sheng never expected this scenario. He was utterly dumbstruck. I’m still sitting here, he thought, why are you suddenly arguing?
Fortunately, one of them, who had been watching Liang Sheng all along, hadn’t participated in their quarrel – Peak Master Jin Jun. “Alright,” he said, “Let’s continue questioning.”
His words immediately made the Golden Core Daoists realize that the lecture test was still ongoing. Why were they arguing with each other again?
Hence, they quickly composed themselves, but there was a moment of shared silence where they just looked at each other.
They felt somewhat embarrassed by their behavior, but it was the Golden Core Daoist who had asked the question earlier who reacted the quickest. “No more questions,” he said. “Let’s see how he practices his craft. One look at his alchemy skills and we’ll know if he’s competent.”
With that, he directly instructed the disciples outside, “Today has been a little exhausting. The other disciples can come for their exams tomorrow.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Sheng was thoroughly dumbfounded. Are all these Golden Core Daoists this capricious? Despite his confusion, he didn’t have the time to contemplate, as one of the Golden Core Daoists had already taken out a pile of Spiritual Grass.
Once he saw the Spiritual Grass, Liang Sheng understood what they wanted him to refine.
Dust Removal Pills.
The Dust Removal Pills didn’t take long to make, but they could reveal a person’s alchemy skills, especially their stability in alchemy.
At this moment, Liang Sheng wasn’t afraid. This matter was related to his points; he could not afford to back off. After all, there weren’t many tasks remaining in the Internal Affairs Office, so he could take a different path and not compete with those exam kingpins.
The Golden Core Daoists didn’t say anything. If Liang Sheng couldn’t even tell what pill he was supposed to refine, what was the point of this exam?
With a calm demeanor, Liang Sheng returned to refining the Spiritual Grass according to his rhythm. His confidence and precision were apparent in each step he took.
