1412: C1412 A Turn for the Better Occurs

C1412 A Turn for the Better Occurs

After thinking for a while, Tang Ao said to Shi Yi: "I'll go down and see if there's any way to participate in the second round." After Tang Ao finished speaking, he did not wait for Shi Yi to react and directly left the place. Shi Yi was stunned by what he said. "What did he just say about participating in the second round? "What!?" Shi Yi muttered to himself before he reacted.1

Shi Yi was speechless. Tang Ao seemed to be a very normal person, how could he have this kind of whimsical thought? It wasn't impossible for one to take part in the second round if one didn't take part in the first round. It was just that one had to pass the examiners' trial in order to pass the second round. But this time, the chief examiner of Alchemy Conference was Xiao Zhen, the Alliance Master of the Alchemy Alliance, who was known for his old-fashioned and solemn attitude.

There was a total of Alliance Master and three Vice Alliance Masters in Alchemists Union. In every Pill Refining Assembly, these four top-notch pill refiners would take turns to be the examiners. If a pill refiner who failed the first round of exams arrived before the second round, then as long as he answered the correct question set by the examiner, he would be able to make it through the second round.

This rule was accepted by all four of them, but ever since Xiao Zhen had become the main examiner, there had never been a person who could pass the examination. And because of this, if they knew that the main examiner of a certain batch of examinees was Xiao Zhen, the pill refiners of Fulong Crypt would rather leave half a year earlier than to be late. It was also because of this that Shi Yi didn't tell Tang Ao this method.

On the other side, Tang Ao was already in front of a wooden hut. Tang Ao found out that this wooden hut was specially used to consult the Alchemy Conference about everything, so he wanted to ask around. Or was there any other method of authentication?

Tang Ao felt that with so many pill refiners in Fulong Crypt, there were too few people who would be able to pass the examination once a year. When Tang Ao came over, he saw that there were a few scattered people standing on the other side of the wooden house. As for the window, there was not a single person. There were still two hours before Alchemy Conference's start. Everyone was already in position, ready to watch the Alchemy Conference this time around.

"What are you doing?" It was completely different from what Tang Ao imagined, there was no Female Fighters with a sweet appearance in this small hut. Instead, it was an extremely muscular, middle-aged man reading books. When Tang Ao came out of the window, the middle aged man casually asked without even raising his head.

"I am Tang Ao, a pill refiner who came to participate in the Alchemy Conference. "Due to the delay on the way, I failed the first round of the apothecary examination. I wonder if there is any way to let me pass the second round?" Just now, Tang Ao had already inquired around, the reason why the Pill Refining Trials were split into two rounds, was because in the first round, all of the martial artists that acted like they were enough had to be eliminated, and the second round, was truly the assessment of the pill refiners' Alchemy skill.

Thus, the first round of the examination was not very important in a strict sense. This was also the reason why the four higher ups of Alchemists Union had set up the rule that the main examiner had the authority to allow the pill refiners to directly participate in the second round. In fact, during the first round of the examination, those slightly famous apothecaries didn't participate because their pill refining ability was already unquestionable.

After Tang Ao finished speaking, the middle aged man raised his head and looked at Tang Ao, and then pointed at the empty ground at the side. Tang Ao had noticed that there were a few people standing on the ground, but he did not know what they were standing for. Since the middle aged man was pointing there, Tang Ao had to ask him about it. Could it be that he could also go over and stand there in a daze?
