Hey, Lao Ao, you're bringing someone here too?" When the atmosphere in the hall was slightly there, an old laugh broke it.

Following the sound of his gaze, Xiao Yanxian, on a high platform on the left side of the hall, some old people in alchemist robes were standing on it with a smile, and the previous voice was the martial arts of one of the old men with snow-white heads.

"That's the Guild Vice-President, Chemir, and the little princess's teacher. Laughing and raising his hand with the old man, Otto tilted his head and Xiao Yan said in a low voice.

"Hmm. Xiao Yan nodded slightly.

"Regardless of the eyes of those guys, being able to become a third-grade alchemist at this age is naturally extremely talented, and some arrogance is natural, if they don't reach their level, they won't pay too much attention to it, and most of the young people who have some ability are like this. Otto glanced at the young men in the hall, patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, and comforted Dao Wu.

Xiao Yan smiled and did not speak.

"Come with me and meet those old fellows, they are the ones with great power in the Garma Empire. Otto said, and took the lead to walk up the high platform on the side, Xiao Yan hesitated for a while, and had to follow the martial arts.

Otto walked quickly up to the high platform and laughed and talked with these old people of about the same age, while Xiao Yan stood quietly behind him, and did not take the initiative to come forward to say hello.

"Lao Ao, is this your strong player in Black Rock City this time?" After laughing and talking for a while, the snow-white old man looked at Xiao Yan on the side with a smile and asked Wu Dongkun.

Raising his gaze slightly, Xiao Yan glanced at this old man who was obviously not low in the Alchemist Guild, dressed in an extremely delicate alchemist robe, with a slight smile on his wrinkled face, and a slight vague cloudy eyes, calm and gentle, at a glance, except for the robe representing his identity on his body and the four silver ripples on his chest that shimmered with strange light, he looked like an ordinary old man, and he did not have too special momentum, however, it was this ordinary old man, but he controlled nearly half of the power of the Alchemist Guild。

As Xiao Yan looked at Chemir. Later, he was also looking him up and down. Ordinary looks. Again, there is nothing to show for it. The only thing that surprised Dechemir was the serene look of the other party. can still maintain this pampering and humiliation under the gaze of a four-grade alchemist. This concentration. Among young people. It is still relatively rare to use force.

"Hmm. His name is Rock Owl. The potential is good. Otto smiled and nodded. Then he turned his head to Xiao Yan and introduced again: "This is the vice president of the guild." Master Chemir. ”

"Hello. Vice President Chemir. Xiao Yan smiled slightly. Chemir politely bent over and moved.

"Huh. Little one. Hopefully, you won't let the Otto Land recommendation lapse. Otherwise. That's going to make him lose his old face. He glanced at the second-grade badge on Xiao Yan's chest. Chemir shook his head helplessly at Otto. In this kind of local competition. The second-grade alchemist is difficult to enter even the top twenty.

"I'm sure at least this test will pass. Xiao Yan shrugged. Daowu moves the world.

"It's good to have faith. Because the strength of the local people recommended by the president of each branch is strong. So we're testing this internally. It's going to be a bit difficult. Chemir nodded. Laughing and moving.

"I tried my best. ”

"Hehe, the time is almost up, I won't talk nonsense, you go down first, the test will start soon. Chemir smiled.

Nodding, Xiao Yan turned around and walked down the high platform, and then under the gaze of a group of young people in the hall below, he quietly walked to a corner, and stood with his hands down.

"Alas, Lao Ao, how can you say that Black Rock City is also a big city, right? It is impossible not to even find a young third-grade alchemist, right?" Looking at Xiao Yan's figure, Chemir made a helpless move towards Otto on the side.

"I believe in him. With his hands between the wide sleeves of his robe, Otto smiled and said with a smile.

"Well, you old fellow... If none of you perform well at the conference this time, then don't blame the funding for next year, I have to do these things, and no matter how good the relationship is, it will be useless. Shaking his head, Chemir said that he was in force.

Otto smiled and nodded, not continuing to dwell on this topic, and said, "It's time, let's start the quiz." ”

Hearing this, Chemir didn't say more, moved his gaze to the people below, and pointed to the left side of the hall, where many black curtains hung down on the walls: "Behind each curtain, there is a separate small room, which is your examination room..."

"As we all know, the refining of medicinal materials is an extremely important step in refining pills, and our test this time is to focus on your refining of medicinal materials..."

"On the table in each small room, the medicinal materials for the test are ready, and all you need to do is to refine the medicinal materials to the maximum purity you can achieve in the shortest possible time. ”

"Before the hourglass is completely dripped, the refining will not be completed, it will fail, and even if it succeeds, we old guys will serve as judges, if the medicinal materials you refine do not meet our requirements, it will also be considered a failure, and the end of failure is to lose the qualification to participate in the competition. Chemir pointed to an hourglass on the table, glanced at the young people below, and smiled faintly.

Hearing such a severe punishment for failure, the young people below looked at each other, except for a few people, their faces changed slightly.

His gaze slowly swept below, and Chemir's gaze suddenly stopped on Xiao Yan, who was standing with his hands hanging in the corner

His plain face couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and he muttered to himself in his heart: "Guy T really has some ability?"

"Alright, let's get started, pay attention to the hourglass time. Clapping his hands, Chemir turned his gaze away from Xiao Yan and said with a smile.

Hearing this, everyone in the hall began to walk to the left in twos and threes, and then each of them opened the black curtain and walked in.

Xiao Yan also found a remote black curtain, and was just about to go in, but the laughter from behind him made him stop his pace, and his face turned his head calmly.

"Hehe, I didn't expect the Rock Owl brothers to be able to participate in this kind of internal test, we really have some fate. Liu Ling approached Xiao Yan and said with a smile, but that feminine smile made Xiao Yan frown slightly.

Xiao Yan glanced at him lightly and said, "I was pulled over to make up the numbers." ”

"Brother Rock Owl is really good at laughing, although your level is not good, but you have a strange thing like a strange fire, and your grades must not be too low. Liu Ling's eyes turned on Xiao Yan's face, to be honest, he still had great doubts about whether Xiao Yan had a strange fire, after all, this kind of thing was just his speculation, although he had also asked Nalan Yanran in private, but for this kind of somewhat secret matter, Nalan Yanran did not tell him the exact answer.

Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, did not answer, and after casually coping with it, he lifted the black curtain and walked in, leaving Liu Ling standing in place with a slight frown.

"Brother Liu, aren't you going in yet?" A crisp voice sounded behind Liu Ling, and the pretty little princess walked over with a smile, glanced at Xiao Yan's disappearing curtain, and said with a smile.

"I met an acquaintance, if the little princess is interested, I can introduce it to you. Smiling softly at the little princess, Liu Ling said softly.

"Forget it, a second-grade alchemist... I'm not in the same good mood as you. The little princess shook her head lazily, obviously her interest in Xiao Yan was not as strong as that in Liu Ling, after all, regardless of identity, strength, appearance, etc., Liu Ling was far superior to the former martial arts.

"Hehe, whatever you want. Liu Ling smiled slightly, the little princess ignored Xiao Yan's attitude like this, but it made him feel a little happy in his heart, in the Nalan family, the old man Nalan valued Xiao Yan, so that Liu Ling, who had always been regarded as a genius, felt quite resentful in his heart.

"I'll go in first, Brother Liu, don't lose to me. She winked playfully at Liu Ling, and then the little princess flashed into a black curtain lightly.

Nodding with a smile, looking at the hall that had become empty, Liu Ling did not delay any longer, and walked unhurriedly after the black curtain, that calm attitude made the Chemir and the others on the high platform nod in admiration.

"This test question is good, refining medicinal materials is not only a necessary measure when refining medicine, but also extremely particular about the ability to control the heat, this small one, is able to roughly measure some of the abilities of these little guys. Looking at the empty hall, Otto turned to Chemir and smiled.

Chemir smiled and nodded, sat down on the chair next to him, took a sip of the teacup, and said with a smile: "Next, let's see who can come out with the purest refining herbs." ”

......

Walking through the black curtain, a small room appeared in Xiao Yan's sight, the room was not spacious, but it was quite elegant and tidy, against the wall of the small room, there was a bluestone platform, on the stone platform, there was an hourglass, and several neatly stacked medicinal materials martial arts.

Walking to the stone platform, Xiao Yan glanced at the medicinal materials that were like pieces of black charcoal, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he muttered in a low voice: "It turned out to be the most scorch-resistant black iron spirit leaf, this thing is refined, but it takes a lot of energy, these old guys, it's really not worry-free." ”

Shaking his head, Xiao Yan's fingers flicked on the ring, and a squatting dark red medicine tripod appeared on the table, picked up a black iron spirit leaf, put it in his hand and pinched it, and then frowned slightly, he was worried about whether to use the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire...

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Yan shook his head, he didn't want to use his hole cards under this kind of preliminary test, this kind of simple test, using Qinglian Earth Heart Fire, is undoubtedly killing chickens and using a knife to move the world.

With a flick of his fingers, a purple pill appeared between his fingers, Xiao Yan threw it into his mouth, chewed it slightly, and then spit it out, and suddenly, a purple flame burst out, and then was held by Xiao Yan on the palm of his hand.

Holding this purple flame, Xiao Yan chuckled, because he had devoured the purple flame at the beginning, so now he can also control this flame extremely skillfully, although it is still not as strong as when controlling the green fire, it can be used to refine the black iron spirit leaf, but there is not much of a problem with martial arts.

The soul power slowly poked out of the body, and then controlled this purple flame, and slowly poured into the Ding furnace, and suddenly, the cold medicine Ding began to heat up, and the purple flame rose in it.

Looking at the bright purple flame faintly, Xiao Yan raised his palm, and the iron wood spirit leaf in his hand came out of his hand, and was projected into the medicine tripod, and the purple flame surged up, wrapping it in it, and began a fierce calcination martial arts.

Ten fingers danced flexibly in front of him, and after a while, Xiao Yan, who was more and more easily controlled, gradually closed his eyes, relying on perception to control the burning of the flames......

In the refining room, the hourglass on the table is slowly descending.

......
