"Hmm. Okay, so be it, I should go too. I have to review the college entrance examination when I go back. Zhang Tianbao put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and prepared to leave.

As soon as he raised the exam, a wave of unhappiness surged in Qianji's heart, but now that he is a disciple of Zhang Tianbao, he doesn't dare to say anything, but he doesn't understand how a young and powerful person like the master can attach so much importance to the college entrance examination?

"Master!"

"Huh, what's the matter?"

Qian Jibian hurriedly trotted over, "Master, there is one more thing I have to take shape for you! Those alchemists of the Hexi Provincial Alchemist Guild have a very strange temper, so you have to pay more attention when the time comes." ”

Zhang Tianbao frowned, with a strange temper? Aren't you a typical representative of a strange temper? How strange must it be to make you an old man and say that he has a strange temper?

"Oh. I know. ”

Zhang Tianbao was silent, and pushed the door and left after answering.

……

On the third day, the capital of Hexi Province, Yunzhong City.

Although there are very few first-grade and second-grade alchemists in the Hexi Provincial Alchemist Guild, and there are no alchemists above the third grade, it still has a very strong influence in the entire Hexi Province, after all, only a few people can become professional alchemists, and the vast majority of people can only struggle on the road of alchemy as alchemist apprentices for the rest of their lives.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Zhang Tianbao stepped into the door of the Hexi Provincial Alchemist Guild.

Located in a retro building complex on the outskirts of Yunzhong City, the capital of Hexi Province, the Alchemist Guild occupies a large area with a large number of apprentices, and of course, the number of people who come to assess the alchemists is also very large.

Before he walked into the door, Zhang Tianbao saw a huge long dragon exhausting at the entrance of the Alchemist Guild, and it seemed that all of them had come to participate in the first-grade alchemist assessment.

"Damn! The alchemist profession is really popular, and there are so many people who come to participate in the assessment!" Zhang Baobao exclaimed in his mouth, and his heart was surprised. There are three or four hundred people in line, I'm afraid I can't finish the test in one day, right?

"Hey, you're new here, aren't you?"

After Zhang Tianbao lined up in the long line, a middle-aged man with a beard in front of him turned his head and asked.

"How do you know?"

"Just look at your sad face. ”

"Uh...... , It's really sad, so many people, I don't know when I'm going to take the exam. ”

"Little young man, it seems that you are also a novice, I am afraid to tell you. It's pretty fast, but it's also fast! Today is the eighteenth time I've come to take the alchemist exam this year. Damn, I don't believe in this evil, with the alchemy foundation that I have laid in Li Tiangang for more than 20 years, I can't pass the assessment of a first-class alchemist?"

"Uncle, your perseverance is so strong!" Zhang Baobao admired from the bottom of his heart, it was not long after the Chinese New Year, and this uncle had already come to the exam eighteen times, and he was really frustrated and braver. What's even more infuriating is that he still has more than 20 years of experience as an alchemist's apprentice, which is older than his current age.

"Hey, I'm also cheering myself up! The one in front, the one who is a little bald, has been an alchemist apprentice for thirty years, and he is not the same fate as me. ”

The middle-aged uncle looked Zhang Baobao up and down as he spoke, "Little young man, I didn't say you, don't you come here to waste time, right? How old are you, and you also want to take the alchemist exam!? You better go home and become an alchemist apprentice, I also kindly remind you." ”

"Forehead ......"

"That's it!"

Before Zhang Tianbao could answer, the few people who heard their conversation in front of them all turned their heads.

"Where did you come from, stupid boy, who came here. The way to kindergarten is over there!"

"Haha. Hairy boy, if you want to take the alchemist exam, it's just a humiliation!"

……

The more people talked, the more energetic they became, and the middle-aged uncle said with a little human touch, "Hey! I said a few of you! It's almost there! People are still children, you just ridicule like this, as for it?"

A few people were also interested, so they didn't say anything more. The middle-aged uncle turned his head at this time, "Little young man, although what they say is not good, they all understand it." You'd better go home. You ......"

"Hey, look! There's someone in the guild! Look at the clothes!"

Before the middle-aged uncle's words were finished, he heard the bald man in front of him cry out in surprise, and the middle-aged uncle looked at it curiously, and also gasped, "My God! That's, that's an alchemist! In the Alchemist Guild, he can be regarded as an old qualified alchemist! And I also heard that he was successfully promoted to a second-grade alchemist yesterday!"

"What!?"

Seeing Qianji change out, the long queue all became agitated, "That's right!!!

"I'll go! If he successfully advances to the second-grade alchemist, I'm afraid he will be able to compete for the president of the next Alchemist Guild, right?"

"Needless to say, I think it's for sure!"

"Hey, don't speak, Master Qianji is coming this way!"

Zhang Tianbao listened to the chaotic conversations of these people, and watched Qianji change his hands behind his back, and slowly walked over with a master's demeanor. Everywhere he went, the crowd in line would bow respectfully to him, after all, this was very likely to be the next president of the Alchemist Guild.

On the other hand, in the face of everyone's gifts, he didn't care at all, and still walked forward slowly with a pair of hands behind his back, his eyes were elegant, as if he was looking for something in the crowd, but his demeanor was extremely chic, like an old fairy.

When he got closer, Qianji saw Zhang Tianbao at a glance.

"Master, so you're here? Oh, you can let the disciple and I find it! Why are you still lining up here, hurry into the house, the disciple has already prepared everything for you! Look at this ......."

Before the middle-aged man and the bald man and the others could bow and salute, everyone heard Qianji say anxiously to the crowd. Everyone was stunned, could it be that there was such a big man at the level of a thousand machine change masters hidden in this long queue?

In front of everyone, Qian Jibian came over and personally supported Zhang Tianbao's arm, "Master, you slow down, the disciple is supporting you, you are not familiar with the road, go this way." ”

The middle-aged man and the bald man are about to pop out of their eyes!

What's going on here? This young man has become a second-grade alchemist, and it is very likely that he will be the master of the next Alchemist Guild President Qianjichang!?

It's unimaginable, but it happened to him in front of middle-aged men and bald people, and they can't admit it if they want to.

"Master! Just turn a corner ahead. ”

Qian Jibian took Zhang Tianbao to walk for five minutes in the retro building complex of the Alchemist Guild, as if walking through a maze.

"Squeak"

Qianjibian pushed open a bronze door.

"Uncle Bian, this is not the examination room for the assessment of alchemists, right?"
