Kapitel 32: Apprentice Alchemist

As soon as Alex stepped into the Giant Garden, a swirl of aromatic scents enveloped him—a mix of blossoming flowers and potent herbs.

Outer Elder Frank, his long white beard flowing, was waiting for everyone at the entrance, ready to guide.

"Welcome, young brats," Elder Frank greeted. "You have only three hours for your exam" and distributed the white papers to everyone.

Alex immediately started roaming around the garden, and his attention went to a lotus with its luminescent petals. His eyes glowed faint purple.

[ Name : Luminescent Lotus

Age : 100 year old

Use : Mortal Rank Pill

Property : Balance Yin and Yang energies ]

With the help of his eyes, Alex started writing every herb and plant name and its properties accurately.

[ Name : Whispering Herb

Age : 250 year old

Use : Spiritual Rank Pill

Property : Enhance Concentration ]

The pressure was on, and he kept on moving forward with newfound focus.

As he ventured deeper, a crimson flower appeared in front of him. Its fiery petals were like real flames.

[ Name : Crimson Orchid

Age : 520 year old

Use : Spiritual Rank Pill

Property : used for doing long time intercourse with their companion.]

Next, Alex came across a serpent-shaped plant near a lake, giving an ominous appearance with its dark and glossy leaves emitting an unpleasant odor.

[ Name : Nightshade Serpent

Age : 1000 year old

Use : Spiritual Rank Pill

Property : Contains high toxic energy ]

As he kept on writing the names and their properties quickly, Alex saw that he had already written more than 500, and stopped even though there were 10 more minutes left.

Alex handed over the paper he had written on to Elder Frank, who was waiting at the entrance, and left the garden with confidence, not because of himself but because of his eyes, leaving with a cheerful smile.

Elder Frank received the paper, and as his eyes swept over it, an expression of surprise appeared on his old face. Because this brat wrote more than 500 plants and herbs, with every one of them correct and precise.

Elder Frank was confident that Alex would be the top scorer in the assessment. And When he searched for his information in the academy Portal, he immediately decided to inform his Elder brother, who is an Inner Courtyard Elder.

Even if he has to offend Elder Agnes in the process, he has no regrets.

Alex walked inside the assessment hall and saw he was the first one to come out and sat on a chair.

When Stella saw him, she said something to Elder Agnes and immediately rushed over to, " Little brother Alex, aren't you too fast " with an expression of amusement on her face.

Alex smiled, and asked, "In what way am I fast?"

"You obviously had 10 more breaths left, but you already came out and here I thought you came prepared, and caused me to embarrass myself in front of my master!" She said.

Previously, she had even said to her master that Alex has a high chance to be top 10 in the assessment. She had never thought that this guy was so awesome that he would come out already even though there was still time left.

"I never said I was. It was you who thought I was prepared, senior sister" said Alex in a joking tone.

"I don't care, you have to compensate me!" Stella said shamelessly.

"Then how do you want me to compensate you, senior sister?" Alex asked, his relationship with senior sister progressed from strangers to acquaintances in the past one year.

Stella tilted her head, thought for a while, then said, "I haven't thought of it yet, so you'll owe me first."

" Also since you are my cute little brother, I'll kindly give you some exclusive behind-the-scenes information!" Stella said mysteriously. "There is a considerable number of elites that have arrived to participate in the assessment this time. A rumor is going on that a Powerful Elder who was obsessed with Alchemy all his life wants to take an apprentice. "

When Alex heard it, he was surprised and nodded, and said, "Thank you for your inside information."

But it didn't matter for him since he was not obsessed with Alchemy like others and only wanted to learn it so he could be self-sufficient.

And Alex was confident to do it by himself with the help of his eyes as long as he got some Alchemy guidance from Elders.

"Oh, right, My Elder Brother is hosting a feast tomorrow night. Why don't you come as well?" Stella said, "Only those who passed the first test and were recommended by Inner disciples are invited."

Alex could not hold back a smile, and said, "Your Elder brother is attracting the support of the people even before they get selected."

"You're clever!" Stella did not deny it. If her Elder brother intended to obtain the position of Young Alchemy King title of Alchemy Pavilion in the future, he needed to start gathering support.

Since It wouldn't necessarily be the one who's extremely talented in Alchemy or very powerful that would obtain this position. It also depended on one's popularity.

If no one in the Alchemy Pavilion was willing to support you, how would anyone ascend to this position? Stella's Elder brother was the 4th and youngest personal disciple of the Alchemy Pavilion Lord.

Even though he was extremely talented in Alchemy, his senior brothers and sister already had significant support in the Alchemy Pavilion, which they built over the duration of 30 to 50 years. Stella had curled her hands into fists, eager to witness the upcoming battles.

Alex only thought about it for a short while before pushing it to the back of his mind. 'What did this battle for theYoung king's position have to do with him?'

He only wanted to make some pills so that he could be independent and also help his family in the future.

Stella kept chattering on and on, bothering him for a while before finally letting him go when everyone started coming back from the test.

However, when she turned around, she revealed a very crafty smile and murmured, 'Elder Brother, Elder Brother, I've introduced a very capable helper to you. You must not mess things up!'

Stella was confident that Alex would reach great heights in the future, and it wasn't blind confidence but due to the special bloodline skill she had awakened, which no one, including her own family, knew about.

Alex naturally saw through the senior sister's plot, but he did not know about her special bloodline skill and didn't understand why she had so much confidence in him.

Soon, there was a large number of people queuing up in a line, particularly Mia, who looked confident that she would definitely pass the first test.
