Chapter XXVII
The martial arts examination of Donghua College will be held in the ring in the central square, and the Dan examination will be in a nearby attic. After handing in your name and personal information, there was a lot of movement.
"Su Yu!"
Hearing the examiner call her name, Xiao Yu'er suddenly became nervous.
"Take it easy, with your strength, it should be fine!"
Chu Ming patted the little girl's shoulder and encouraged her gently.
"Hmm-"
Xiao Yu'er nodded heavily, took a deep breath and stepped into the room.
Chu Ming was bored and sat in the corridor waiting, and it took about half an hour for the little girl to come out of the room happily.
"Passed?"
"Hmm!" The girl's face was full of excitement, and she explained: "It turns out that it's just like usual, just refine a furnace of pills in front of several examiners!" β
How complicated could it be?
"Chu Ming!"
"Called you, Senior Brother Chu, go, I'll wait for you outside!"
There was a long table in the room, and the three of them sat behind it, somewhat similar to the interview in their previous lives.
Chu Ming walked to the chair in the center of the room and sat down, and the middle-aged man in the center looked Chu Ming up and down, frowned, and said, "You want to order three products?" β
"Yes!"
"Young man, you have to think clearly, if you want to enter our school's Dan Academy at your age, you only need to successfully refine a furnace of second-grade pills within three chances, don't be reckless!" The beautiful woman on the left opened her mouth to remind, and there was a little concern in those cool eyes that Chu Ming didn't quite understand.
"Thank you seniors, I still want to order three products!"
"Since he insists on it, let him be!" The old man on the right looked at Chu Ming lightly, and then said, "But I want to remind you that the three attempts have not made Cheng Dan, so please do it!" β
Refining the three-grade pill was already within his reach for Chu Ming, taking out the Dan furnace and refining the medicinal materials needed for refining the Purifying Qi Pill, Chu Ming's mind moved a cluster of Dan fire into the furnace.
Incineration, purification, and infusion...... Step by step, it was orderly, but just when Chu Ming wanted to condense the pill, the Dan fire in the furnace soared up without any warning, and the medicinal liquid that was just about to condense suddenly scattered in all directions.
"I can't even do the most basic fire control, so I still want to refine the third-order pill?" The old man sneered.
How so?
Chu Ming was sure that his operation was fine, was it just an accident?
With a long exhale to stabilize his mind, Chu Ming cleaned up the stove, took out another medicinal herb and began to try again. As a result, the flame in the furnace was out of control again when the Ning Dan was desired.
"Young man, why don't you try refining the second grade?"
After two failures in a row, the beautiful woman, one of the examiners, seemed a little anxious and persuaded again.
This time, Chu Ming was very sure that there was no problem with his alchemy steps, could it be the problem of the furnace?
That's a bit of a dilemma!
"What, there's something wrong with the stove? Come on, try it with me! The middle-aged man behind the long table also felt strange, the young man in front of him was very skilled in refining medicine or injecting spirits, and it didn't look like he had no purpose no matter how he looked at it.
"Thank you, senior!"
Chu Ming took the Dan furnace and began to make one last attempt.
As before, the flames soared again when Ning Dan was condensing, but this time Chu Ming noticed something unusual! As he strengthened the Dan Fire and prepared to condense the Dan, a stream of soul power poured into the furnace, and the source was none other than the old man sitting behind the long table!
Chu Ming raised his head violently, and what appeared in his eyes was the other party's sneering look.
"It's you!" Chu Ming stared at the old man and said coldly, "It was you who used your soul power to stir up the fire when I was condensing the pill!" β
"Nonsense!" The old man slammed the table and stood up, sneering, "Why did the old man destroy your Ning Dan for no reason? β
"You'll have to ask yourself!"
"Young man, Elder Wu is one of the elders of our Dan Academy, how could he do such a thing?"
"Not necessarily!" The woman on the left suddenly got up and analyzed in a condensed voice: "Teacher Zhuang, you have also seen it, this little guy refines, purifies, and injects spirits in one go, how can he not condense the pill?" Maybe there's something hidden in this! β
"Liu Qianhong, do you mean to believe what he said, I made a ghost out of it?"
The woman's eyes flickered a few times and said, "Elder Wu, no matter what the facts are, why not let this young man try again?" If he really has the realm of three grades, wouldn't it make our school lose a genius? β
"Strong words! Are you playing tricks on the rules that have been passed down from Donghua College for thousands of years? If the three chances are not released, they should be eliminated! β
"You-"
"Alright, don't fight!" The middle-aged man in the middle, as the main examiner, knew that he should come up with an attitude, and after thinking for a while, he sighed: "Young man, you are still young, there will be opportunities in the future, go back to precipitate and precipitate, and come back in three years!" β
Chu Ming got up slowly, bowed his hand respectfully to the middle-aged man and the woman beside him when he returned the Dan furnace, and said: "Thank you for the love of the two seniors, but I, Chu Ming, am not a doll who comes and goes when people call me, you didn't let me enter the hospital today, and if you want me to enter in the future, you have to let the dean personally invite me!" β
"Presumptuous!" Elder Wu slapped the table again and said angrily, "It's very arrogant to be young!" Who do you think you are? I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue! β
Chu Ming didn't continue to argue meaninglessly, and turned around and left in a dashing manner.
"Wait a minuteβ"
As soon as Chu Ming walked out of the door, the woman who was called Liu Qianhong chased him out, and said hurriedly: "Young man, don't worry, I'll talk to Teacher Zhuang againββ"
"Thank you seniors, I have made up my mind, so I won't trouble you!"
"You ......" The woman was angry, glanced back, and then pulled Chu Ming to the end of the corridor, and said speechlessly: "You really don't plan to enter the academy?" β
Chu Ming nodded.
"What a stubborn temper, exactly like your master!"
"Seniors know the family teacher?"
If so, it is not surprising that the woman had an attitude towards him.
"Don't you know ......" Liu Qianhong sighed lightly and took out a ring: "This is what your master asked me to give to you, he gave you time to go to Luoxia Town, find a person named Candle Jiu, and ask him to get something!" β
"Master, he's gone?"
Chu Ming didn't expect the master to say that he was going to see an old man, but he didn't even say goodbye when he left. Now that I think about it, the old man should be the senior Liu in front of me.
Liu Qianhong nodded and said, "Your master is free and easy by nature, and he doesn't like to be sad and say goodbye, he asked me to tell you, and he will come to you when he finishes the business at hand." β
Chu Ming, who took the ring, was already in a bad mood, and it became even heavier for a while. Master's departure in such a hurry must not be a trivial matter, but I hope there is no danger. Since the master asked him to go to Luoxia Town, he will have to say goodbye to everyone after the martial arts examination is over.
