After Nie Li entered the room, there were two Primary Alchemy Masters sitting at the front. Both of them are around fifty-sixty years old. Beside them was a table and a chair. On the table sat a stack of books and a sheep’s horn pen.
Seeing Nie Li come in, one of the Primary Alchemy Masters was stunned for a moment, puzzled. He asked, “This student, are you in the wrong place? This is the exam room for Alchemy Master.”
“Two honourable Masters, I’m not in the wrong place. I’m here to take the exam for Alchemy Master,” Nie Li politely said. For the examiner, it’s best to be more polite towards them.
The two Alchemy Masters looked at each other. They have no idea who’s kid this is. For this kid to actually come to take the exam for Alchemy Master. In a moment, he will know how difficult the Alchemy Master exam is. If he hasn’t been in the way of alchemy for at least a few decades, it’s impossible to become an Alchemy Master!
“Okay then, there are more than three hundred and sixty pages within this book. You can take a few from the book. On each page, there is all sorts of alchemy questions. You are required to write the answers on the paper. You have to take a total of twenty pages and finish them within two hours. Only if the correct rate is over 90% can you go into the next round,” One of the Alchemy Masters instructed.
“Honourable Master, help me pick a few,” Nie Li said, looking at that the Alchemy Master. If the papers are picked by the Alchemy Master, then that will eliminate any possibility of him cheating.
That Alchemy Master saw Nie Li’s clear eyes, nodded and said, “Okay!” He randomly pick twenty papers from within and place it in front of Nie Li, “You can doing these!”
Nie Li took up the horn pen. His gaze swept across the questions on those papers. The corner of his mouth rose. These questions are simply too easy for him. It was like an Alchemy Master doing an Alchemy Apprentice’s papers. Nie Li’s understanding towards alchemy has long surpassed the realm of Alchemy Masters! He is even worried that these Alchemy Masters would not be able to understand if his answers were too complex, so he deliberately simplified his answers. Some of his answers to the questions are wrong, however, Nie Li can only write it this way because these Alchemy Masters alchemy knowledge is not to that level yet.
Nie Li’s pen was flying. Scribble scribble and he finished answering several questions.
Those two Alchemy Masters originally thought that Nie Li wouldn’t be able to answer them, however, they never thought that Nie Li would be able to answer the questions so fast! After he completed several questions, they thought that Nie Li is just randomly scribbling and stretched their head to take a look.
“First question is about the sixteen uses of Spirit Core Grass. Oh, the answers are quite good. Not one was missed out!”
“Second question is about the refining process of the Spirit Concentration Pill, the twenty-six steps are very complete!”
……
The two Alchemy Masters looked at each other. Their first reaction is that Nie Li is cheating! How can a thirteen-fourteen year old teenager be able to understand the process of it so thoroughly? Truth is, just one page is extremely easy. However, this is picked out from tens of thousands of herbs and thousands of elixirs. How much profound knowledge does one have to be able to answer these questions so easily?
But these papers were picked out by one of the Alchemy Masters, which nearly eliminates all possibility of Nie Li cheating!
A thirteen-fourteen year old kid, even if he was to start reading since he was in the womb, could not possibly finish reading so many books.
The two Alchemy Masters looked at each other and bitterly smiled. Could it be that, in this world, there’s a genius with birth wisdom? Birth wisdom means that the wisdom and knowledge is extraordinary since birth.
Under normal circumstances, ordinary person would need roughly at least a quarter of an hour to finish one paper. To be able to finish ten papers within the allotted time frame is very hard. Lots of people would be stuck by a few difficult questions, however, Nie Li is simply completing them without any pause in between. He answered three papers in a quarter of an hour.
Before an hour had passed, ten papers have already been filled with answers.
After every paper was completed, those two Alchemy Masters would inspect them. To their horror, all ten papers don’t have even one mistake. Some questions were also brilliantly answered. They had surpassed some of the book’s record, causing them to be amazed.
Genius!
A genuine genius!
The two Alchemy Masters were marvelled, their mood was excited. Regarding this matter, they definitely have to report it to the elder group. Nie Li’s age is still small,but he already has such frightening knowledge. What will become of him in a few years?
Nie Li might even be the person who will let the Alchemist Association develop further! Thinking about it already had them excited. At that time, someone who marked the papers of Nie Li will also become well known.
“May I know where this young master is from?” One of the old men said, smiling, “My name is Huyan Ming, he is Mu Yang, are both Primary Alchemy Masters.”
“Honourable teachers, you can just call me by my name. I’m Nie Li, from the Heavenly Marks Family,” Nie Li humbly said. There’s actually another person with the surname Hu Yan. Nie Li wondered if he’s from the Hu Yan Family.
Hearing Nie Li’s words, Huyan Ming and Mu Yang’s eye happily squinted up. Nie Li’s addressing of honourable teachers made the two of them happy. Not bad, not bad. For such a young age, he has such a vast talent but is not arrogant. If Nie Li is really able to get himself a spot in the Alchemist Association, this addressing of honourable teachers would have their status raise by a lot.
