Chapter 73 - Chapter 73: Chapter 73: Assessment (2/2)

“Elder Yu, you shouldn’t blame yourself. It’s only normal for me to undergo an assessment if I wish to become a pill master offering priest for Yuebaolou, isn’t

“Besides, Elder Yu, you haven’t seen me perform alchemy with your own eyes yet, now there is a good opportunity for you to see. If there is anything I’m doing wrong, please offer your guidance,” Lin Jing said.

After listening to Lin Jing’s words, Elder Yu was relieved, especially by the last sentence, which comforted him. Elder Yu kept nodding and said,

“Well said, well said…

After finishing, he reminded Lin Jing, “For tomorrow’s examination, Elder Bai might ask you to make a superior elixir for the assessment. Are you confident?”

Lin Jing thought for a moment and said, “Don’t worry, Elder Yu. As for supreme elixirs, that might be a bit difficult to say, but there should be no problem with superior elixirs. ”

This time, the use of the System Space would definitely be prohibited, which meant the success rate bonus from the System Space would no longer apply.

However, he was now a Second-Grade Alchemist. Making a first Rank elixir was still very easy for him. Even without the system’s enhancement, making a supreme elixir should also not be much of an issue.

But even so, Lin Jing dared not to be too full of himself.

After all, alchemy was never one hundred percent certain; who knew what accidents might occur?

Afterward, having chatted with Elder Yu for a while longer, Lin Jing then left.

Early the next day, Lin Jing arrived at Yuebaolou.

And Elder Yu had already been waiting there for a long time.

“Let’s go, we’ll head to the alchemy room now,” Elder Yu said upon seeing Lin Jing’s arrival.

“Okay,” Lin Jing nodded, then followed behind Elder Yu.

The two left Yuebaolou from the back, crossed the street, and walked a distance until they came to a quiet courtyard and stopped.

Elder Yu pointed to the small courtyard in front of them and said, “This is Yuebaolou’s alchemy room.”

“Elder Yu, why is the alchemy room built here? I saw there was a courtyard behind Yuebaolou, why not there?” Elder Yu sighed and replied,

“Alas…

“There used to be an alchemy room there, but later an Offering Priest, who is a pill master, had an accident while doing alchemy, which caused a furnace to explode.”

“The explosion from that event was quite powerful. It broke through the alchemy room’s defensive array and affected Yuebaolou, causing significant casualties. ”

“Therefore, since then, the alchemy room has been moved here.”

Lin Jing looked around and found that this place was indeed very quiet, and the surrounding courtyards seemed to be uninhabited.

It was unclear if this was done specifically to prevent unforeseen incidents.

Pushing open the courtyard door and walking in, Lin Jing found the space inside was not small; there was a large square in the courtyard, and behind the square was an alchemy room.

“Does no one come here usually?” Lin Jing asked, curious.

“Of course…” Elder Yu began to answer.

“Those Offering Priest pill masters aren’t here; most of them do alchemy in their own homes, and few come here to practice alchemy.”

“This place is usually only used in special circumstances, or during alchemy competitions between the offering priests.”

“Oh… I see.” Lin Jing suddenly understood.

Next, Lin Jing and Elder Yu waited there, expecting Elder Bail s arrival.

They didn’t have to wait long before Elder Bai arrived.

“Elder Bai.” Lin Jing bowed in greeting.

Elder Bai nodded in response and then said,

“For today’s assessment, I’m not planning on making it difficult for you. I’ll give you three chances, and you only need to successfully make one batch.”

“As for the final outcome, it will be decided after Elder Yu and I have inspected and consulted on it.”

“Yes, Elder Bai,” Lin Jing replied.

“Alright then, let’s go inside.” Having said that, Elder Bai led the way to the alchemy room.

Lin Jing and Elder Yu followed behind him.

Upon arriving at the alchemy room, Elder Bai took out three sets of materials for the Energy Gathering Pill and handed them to Lin Jing.

Then he told him,

“Alright, you can begin now.” “Okay,” Lin Jing nodded..
