Chapter 103: The Little Tiger

Hearing this, Otto glanced at Liu Ling and Nalan Yanran, his face suddenly condensed, and he said in a deep voice: "Her name is Nalan Yanran, she is the daughter of the Nalan family, one of the three major families in the Jiama Empire. She is about the same age as the little princess. Four years ago, she was valued by Yun Yun, the leader of the Yunlan Sect, and was accepted as a personal disciple. Although she is not an alchemist, she is gifted and broke through to the Douzhe level at the age of thirteen. I don't know what happened this time, she didn't practice with the leader Yun in the Yunlan Sect but came to watch the test. The young man next to Nalan Yanran is Liu Ling, a disciple of Dan Wang Guhe, in his early twenties. It is said that he just passed the third-grade alchemist assessment half a month ago."

"Yeah." Xiao Se nodded slightly. Now the plot has changed beyond all recognition. Even if Yun Yun came, he wouldn't find it strange.

"Come with me to meet those old guys. They have great power." Otto licked his lips and took the lead to climb to the top platform.

Xiao Se smiled indifferently and followed closely.

Otto quickly climbed onto the platform and chatted with Chemiel and the others, while Xiao Se stood aside, waiting quietly. If it weren't for the mysterious championship reward and the recipe for the Rongling Pill, he really wouldn't bother to join in the fun.

"Old buddy, is this young man the representative of your Black Rock City this time?" After chatting with Otto for a while, Qiemi looked at Xiao Se, and the smile on his face gradually faded. He found that he seemed to be unable to see through the young man in front of him.

"Haha, his name is Xiao...Huohuo, he has unlimited potential." Otto nodded with a smile, turned his head, and introduced to Xiao Se again: "This is the vice president of our Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Guild Headquarters, Master Qie Mier. The one next to him is the little princess Yaoyue of the imperial family."

"Hello, Vice President Qiemier, Princess Yaoyue." Xiao Se smiled indifferently, neither humble nor arrogant.

Seeing that Xiao Se did not salute them, the little princess Yaoyue snorted again, put her hands on her waist, and asked, "Xiao Huohuo, why don't you salute my teacher and me?"

Xiao Se's expression remained the same as usual, and he said calmly: "Just say hello, is there a rule that you must greet each other when you meet, little girl?"

Xiao Se called Yaoyue "you" a little girl, which made her very angry. Because of her petite body shape and figure, what she hated most was people calling her small, and she immediately flew into a rage.

Just when she was about to explode, Qi Mier beside her waved her hand to stop her and scolded: "Yaoyue, don't act rashly."

Hearing Qiemi's scolding, Yaoyue glared at Xiaose fiercely, snorted, and said no more.

"Haha, little guy, I hope you can pass the test, otherwise, old man Otto will be embarrassed." After taking a deep look at Xiao Se, Qi Mier subconsciously regarded Xiao Se as a proud and arrogant person. Little did he know that Xiao Se simply didn't like red tape. Then he shook his head helplessly at Otto. Although he couldn't see through it, in this level of competition, a second-grade alchemist was indeed not good enough.

"At least there's no problem passing this test." Xiao Se spread his hands and said casually.

"Haha, forget it, just think of me as an old man who talks too much. The test is about to begin, you go down first." Seeing that Xiao Se did not seem to be bluffing, Qiemi smiled and shook his head, saying helplessly.

Nodding slightly, Xiao Se turned and walked down the platform. At the same time, Nalan Yanran also left the crowd, walked slowly over, and passed by Xiao Se. The two of them glanced at each other, and Xiao Se nodded at her and continued walking.

Nalan Yanran slowly walked to the platform and stood beside the little princess Yaoyue. She asked in surprise, "Little princess, why are you suddenly angry for no reason?"

"Hmph, it's still that Xiao Huohuo just now, with such an awesome look. He's just a second-rank alchemist, but he thinks he's so powerful. He's just relying on the fact that he's a few years older than this princess. In another two years, oh no, one year, I will be able to surpass him." Yaoyue pouted her lips and snorted.

"Xiao Huohuo?" Hearing this, Nalan Yanran was slightly stunned, and then looked at Xiao Se below the stage with some surprise, thinking to herself, the teacher saw the second-grade alchemist with strange fire on the flying magic beast flying from the Tagor Desert to Black Rock City, and the second-grade alchemist named Xiao Huohuo in front of her was representing Black Rock City in the competition. They have the same name, could it be that they are the same person?

On the other side, Chemiel and Otto chatted for a while, then walked to the edge of the platform, looked down at the people below, and said loudly: "The test time is up. All test takers, please go to the designated small room to take the test."

"Each small room has medicinal herbs and instruments. This test will test your ability to extract medicinal herbs. Only if you can extract the medicinal herbs within the specified time and meet our requirements, will you pass. Those who fail will be disqualified from the competition."

"Now, I declare that the test officially begins." Qi Mier waved to an old man behind him. The old man understood what he meant and rang the bronze bell on the platform with a clang.

Hearing the bell, a group of young people in the audience quickly walked into the small room. For most people, the pressure of this prediction was no less than that of the real Alchemist Conference. If they failed, they would not even be qualified to participate, so they had to hurry.

Looking at the empty hall, Xiao Se slowly found an empty small room and walked in.

On the high platform, the pretty little princess looked at Qie Mier and said with a sweet smile: "Teacher, who do you think will get first place this time? Will it be Brother Liu Ling?"

Qie Mier shook his head and smiled faintly, "It's hard to say. Although Liu Ling is a disciple of the Pill King and has a strong talent, he has just become a third-grade alchemist. Compared with the other third-grade alchemists, he does not have an advantage."

"Haha, I think Xiao Huohuo can win the first place." Otto on the side heard this and said with a smile.

"Him? Master Otto, are you getting senile? He is only a second-grade alchemist, how could he possibly beat a third-grade alchemist?" The little princess frowned and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Yaoyue, don't be rude." Seeing his apprentice speaking rudely to his old friend, Qiemi immediately scolded him.

Hearing this, Yaoyue curled her lips, made a face at Chemir, and said nothing more.

As time passed slowly, people came out of the small house one after another, and the end time finally arrived.

"It's almost time!" Chemiel stood up and clapped his hands. All the fourth-grade alchemists, including Otto, stood up from their seats. He then winked at the old man who had struck the gong. The old man understood and struck the bronze bell.

Glancing at the young alchemists with sad faces below, Qie Mier sighed helplessly, but when he saw Xiao Se's still calm face, his heart could not help but surge. He then led a group of fourth-grade alchemists to slowly walk down the platform, followed closely by the little princess and Nalan Yanran.
