Chapter 237: Chapter 237- Youngest Tier 3 Alchemist of Yan City

"If I was his master, I would also ask him to do the same. After all, fame does not always bring benefits, it also attracts trouble"...

"You are right, let us not pry into his matters. I am already grateful that a monstrous talent like him appeared in my Yan city alchemist association. With him, we finally have a worthy participant for the tournament" Yao Dian’s old eyes glowed as he started fantasising.

"Branch Manager... isn’t it too early to count Yang Chen? He hasn’t even received a certification from our association yet. Who knows what plans he has" Elder Du interjected bringing Yao Dian who was lost in how own fantasy back to reality.

"Right, it is as you say Du, I got too excited that I forgot to respect the wishes of the young man" The branch manager of the alchemist association hurriedly came to his senses.

"Putting the matter of the endorsement aside, the young man has proven that his skills as a tier 3 alchemist are genuine. We need to get him the tier 3 badge and the various benefits that come with it"...

"Leave it to me, branch manager. I shall go and prepare the badge for him" Elder Du left to carry out the task. Just as he was about to walk out of the hall, Yao Dian added.

"I heard you mention that he encountered some complications with Song Jie’s son a while ago. While you are at it, also give a message to Song Jie, tell him that I took a liking to this young man and not to make things difficult for him. This is an event of great importance for our Yan City Alchemist Association"

"It is not every time that a tier 3 Alchemist is born in our city. Make sure that no leaks about the event today gets out. As much as I would like to publicise the events of today and prepare a grand celebration from him, the young man himself doesn’t want to stand out".

Even in the whole of Yan province, an alchemist who has reached the level of tier 3 is rare. Not to mention a tier 3 alchemist as young as Yang Chen, was unprecedented in the history of the yan city. If news of such a young genius got out, it would be unimaginable what the consequences would be.

"Understood" Saying so, Elder Du exited the room.

Now with only two people administering the exam and a little girl marvelling at the spectacle from the gallery, the hall descended into silence. The only noise that echoed was the sounds of the refinement.

Not long afterwards, another pill started taking form inside Yang Chen’s cauldron. Looking at that scene, Old Ye sighed and closed his eyes.

"His talent truly is exceptional as you said. It looks like he may succeed in refining a Spiritual grade pill this time".

"Haha," Yao Dian laughed wryly in response. He did not have any more energy to be surprised anymore. The amount of surprise he received today, made him numb to everything. Now he felt like even refining a spiritual grade pill was normal for the young man.

"With a talent for alchemy like that, if he is groomed well and given enough time his name would surely shake the whole world one day. Perhaps he has the potential to reach tier 9 or even tier 10 one day" Old Ye praised.

"Since even you are praising him so much, then it must mean that this young man is truly exceptional. Hehe, how does he fare against your disciple?" With a mischievous smile on his face, Yao Dian asked a question.

"In terms of talent, I will say that they are very close; however there is no comparison right now. Though that is only for now. Who has seen the future? Maybe one day if this young man can come out of the well he is living in, and experience the vast world awaiting outside, then perhaps..." Old Ye answered honestly.

"Hahaha" Yao Dian started laughing heartily looking at the young man’s talent shining brightly not so far away from him.

"A talent like this, cannot be contained within this small empire. I’m sure this young man will one day step out of this well to go experience the vast world outside".

With Yang Chen showing his meticulous skill, the refinement didn’t take long. Soon a milky green pill formed inside the cauldron. Placing the pill on his palm, Yang Chen brought his eyes closer for a close inspection.

After a while, he couldn’t help but frown in disappointment. The pill that was formed this time, in terms of purity was much more better than the first one. One could even say that it retained more than ninety one percent of the ingredient’s properties.

Its effectiveness was far higher. However, the second pill can at best be ranked a spiritual grade. From the point of view of the Great Sage Emperor who pursued perfection, the pill would still be considered a failure.

Neverthless...

"It looks like I can only refine so far with my current cultivation" Yang Chen muttered taking a deep breath.

After two refinements, he realised that with his current cultivation, it was impossible to create a Qi detoxifying Pill of Heaven Grade pill. It was not that he was lacking the skill or sufficient knowledge, it was just that mid stage soul purification realm wasn’t strong enough to extract all the essence of the ingredients thus causing the obvious decline in grade.

"Well I guess it cannot be helped" Sighing to himself, Yang Chen pulled the two pills into his hand and walked towards the administrators.

"Elders, I have finished refining the pill, please inspect it" With that, he handed the pills to them.

"Very good, this is indeed a spiritual grade pill. I have received it, you have passed the exam... congratulations"

An extremely quick assessment. However, it was given. To Yang Chen who pursued the standards of the Great Sage Emperor, the pill might only be a failure but to people like Yao Dian, a spiritual grade pill was the highest grade that an alchemist could refine without going through an enlightenment.
