Fighting Break Sphere: My Days as a Tutor at Canaan College

Chapter 209: Being mistaken for showing off
"It seems that if it is not beast fire, then it must be that the method he practiced is special, which caused the condensed fighting spirit flame to be very different from that of ordinary people..."

"..."

"Haha, your analysis is pretty close..."

While the alchemists in the field were whispering, Pang Fan and Yuan Huan also came to this area at this critical moment. Hearing the discussions of some guild members around them, Pang Fan twirled his gray beard with one hand and chuckled.

Hearing the voice, everyone came to their senses from the whispers they were having in pairs. They turned around and saw that it was Pang Fan. They quickly bowed and said in unison:
"Meet Master Pang Fan!"

However, few people call him "Vice President Pang" to his face.

In fact, in the circle of alchemists, those of lower rank call those of higher rank or seniors "Master", which is a deeper level of respect and admiration from the heart.

Looking at it this way, although some people called Yan Yong, who was also the vice president, "Master Yan Yong" when he arrived, they were a minority after all. Most people still called him the more blunt "Vice President Yan".

Comparing the two, it is beyond doubt who has a higher status in the hearts of everyone in the guild, and who is more respected by the guild members, between Pang Fan and Yan Yong.

After all, one of them is a fourth-grade and the other is a third-grade, so there is a natural gap in the grade of alchemists.

"Brother Pang, you are here..."

When he saw Pang Fan, Yan Yong was stunned for a moment, then he moved slightly, walked to his side, and bowed slightly.

Seeing this, Pang Fan smiled and turned his body slightly, not accepting the greeting.

Although there is a difference in the quality of the two alchemists, their status in the guild is apparently equal. If they accept this gift calmly in public, it will undoubtedly send a bad "signal" to everyone's hearts. Some old members of the guild who were not very satisfied with Yan Yong's position as vice president will look down on Yan Yong even more in private!

He has a good personal relationship with Yan Yong, so he naturally would not allow such a situation to happen.

"Old Yan, you and I have been friends for many years. Why are you still being so polite in the guild?"

Pang Fan stroked his beard and smiled.

Hearing this, Yan Yong also smiled with a relaxed expression and said:
"Etiquette cannot be abolished. Although we are both vice presidents, Brother Pang is higher than me in terms of alchemist level. There is nothing wrong with me paying respect to the one who is more accomplished."

"You, I don't believe you don't know the twists and turns behind some things..."

Pang Fan shook his head without comment.

As the two approached, they began to communicate in low voices.

In the back, Yuan Huan, who arrived at the scene with Pang Fan, saw this situation and consciously did not go closer. However, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

However, he had never imagined that the two of them had such a good personal relationship, which was not noticeable in the guild!
Of course, what he didn't know was that compared to Pang Fan, Yan Yong had a relatively old-fashioned personality. Even though he had a good personal relationship with Yan Yong, he seldom showed it in the guild. Moreover, he had only been transferred back for less than a year, so how could he really know every detail behind every senior executive of the guild?
"Haha, okay, I came here to watch you inspect the students' alchemy skills, not to chat..."

After chatting for a few minutes, Pang Fan smiled and shifted his gaze to the willow mat on the stone platform.

As he and Yan Yong gradually became quiet, the area fell silent again.

In the opinion of many alchemists, the young man named "Liu Xi" on the stone platform was able to attract Master Pang Fan to come, which greatly improved the credibility of his alchemy skills.

In the light shield.

Liu Xi, who was the focus of more and more attention at this moment, obviously did not have much leisure to pay attention to the movements in the outside world.

With a quick glance at the tray beside him, he picked up a few medicinal herbs in order, and then put them into the medicine cauldron in an orderly manner.

Inside the medicine cauldron, the light golden fighting spirit flame, whose strength and quality far exceeded those condensed by ordinary alchemists, was wielded by him with exquisite frequency control using his strong soul perception. In addition, he used the flame burning technique taught from his cheap teacher to quickly extract the essence of medicinal materials. The medicinal materials put into the medicine cauldron were gently wrapped in the middle and burned in all directions.

Not long after, under the gazes of people outside with various expressions, Liu Xi easily extracted the essence of each medicinal material needed to refine the Explosive Qi Pill.

"The materials have been refined, and the next step is purification! By the way, how many times should we refine them..."

Liu Xi suddenly whispered in his heart.

……

Outside the light shield.

The crowd looked through the transparent mirror in the middle of the front of the medicine cauldron and saw the general situation inside the medicine cauldron in front of Liu Xi.

"Old Yan, your student has a solid foundation in material refining, and he can use the techniques you taught him flexibly. But I wonder how many times he can purify the materials at his age?"

Pang Fan spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Yan Yong did not answer. He was still immersed in deep shock.

Moreover, he was unsure about the answer to Pang Fan's question.

Honestly speaking, from what he had seen so far, Liu Xi's performance in alchemy was already much better than what he remembered from a year ago.

With one technique, it flows smoothly.

He had the illusion that this kid's alchemy skills were about to catch up with his? !

Now, he felt a little regretful... Was the assessment requirement for this kid a little too low?

If I had known this earlier, I would have let him take the second-grade alchemist examination and directly refine second-grade pills...

……

Tsk~tsk~
The light golden flame of Dou Qi came from the two fire channels of the medicine cauldron, interweaving the medicinal ingredients and burning them in the center. Liu Xi used the technique skillfully, controlling the rhythm of the interweaving of the Dou Qi flame, and constantly refining the impurities that were inevitably contained in the medicinal ingredients.

Time passes slowly.

One purification...

Purify twice...

……

Four times purification!

……

Outside the stone platform.

Pang Fan, who was over fifty years old, showed a trace of surprise on his face. He tilted his head slightly and said to Yan Yong:
"Old Yan, your student's alchemy skills are at this level, shouldn't he be allowed to take the second-grade alchemist exam?"

After he finished speaking, his tone became more lamentable, and he continued:
"If I remember correctly, your student should be in his early twenties, right? A second-grade alchemist of this age, wow, is rare in the entire Jia Ma Empire. Old Yan, you have a successor... Unlike me, I still haven't found a satisfactory successor..."

Beside him, Yan Yong looked at Pang Fan's face with a sigh, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. It was not difficult for him to hear the sour taste in his words.

However, at this moment, he really didn't know what to say!

Having said that, if he knew Liu Xi's current level of alchemy skills, why would he need to examine him?
Isn't this unnecessary?

It is better to investigate because you don’t know!
Why did it sound like I was doing this on purpose, pretending to be cool and showing off?!

You know, he himself is also confused now.
