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

Chapter 211 Making things difficult
Undoubtedly, this mid-level official of the guild came to deliver the prescriptions for the elixirs that those who were taking the assessment needed to make.

Not surprisingly, the "questions" for each person taking the test should be different. Of course, if there are a large number of people taking the test, there will be appropriate repetitions in the test questions.

However, right now, in the inner room of the second-grade alchemist examination, there are only eight examinees including Liu Xi. Considering the wide variety of second-grade elixirs, it is unlikely that three or two examinees will refine the same elixir.

However, when Liu Xi saw the intermediate guild official holding eight parchment scrolls, his gaze narrowed slightly.

There is no other reason.

This person was Yuan Huan, with whom he had some grudge.

It happened to be him?
Is it really such a coincidence...

He thought to himself, and his eyes became more restrained.

Not long after.

The eight parchment scrolls were distributed to the eight maids who came in with Yuan Huan under his command. Along with the parchment scrolls, three copies of various medicinal materials needed for refining pills were placed next to the reference candidates on the stone platform.

Yuan Huan did not make eye contact with Liu Xi throughout the entire process, and his expression remained calm.

But after leaving the inner room, when he passed through the dimly lit passage, the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up, revealing a sinister smile.

……

In the inner room.

The eight candidates received the topic of the elixir and the medicinal materials needed to refine the elixir. Except for Liu Xi, the other seven candidates, after knowing the elixir they needed to refine, immediately placed their palms on the fire port of the medicine cauldron, and the fighting spirit in their bodies immediately surged out!

In an instant, semicircular light curtain shields slowly rose from under the stone platform, covering the seven participants.

Many of them were not very confident that they could successfully refine the pill in one go. Although they were given three portions of medicinal materials, which meant three chances to refine the pill, the assessment was time-limited. If you were slow, you might fail twice, and there would be no more time to complete the refining for the third time.

"Huh? Why hasn't the participant started yet? What is he doing standing there?!"

Time passed quietly for a while. At this time, several guild officials sitting on chairs around the inner room naturally noticed Liu Xi's abnormality and doubts began to arise in their hearts.

"His name is Liu Xi, and he is Vice President Yan's student. The reason why he hasn't made any move yet is probably because he is very confident in refining the pills for the test, and he is not in a hurry..."

On the other side, an official who had just gone out and witnessed Liu Xi refining medicine spoke up.

"So that's it..."

Several guild officials nearby suddenly realized what was going on.

But the actual situation on the stone platform at this moment was quite different from what the people around him thought.

Liu Xi looked at the pill that the parchment scroll required him to refine. For a moment, he wanted to walk down the stone platform, run straight out of the inner room, press Yuan Huan to the ground, and rub him back and forth several times!

In the center of the top of the parchment scroll, there were three big characters written: "Lianqi Dan".

The Qi-training Pill, a second-grade advanced pill, is similar to the second-grade top-grade pill "Fighting Qi Pill" that Yuan Huan asked him to help refine.

Both are used to improve the strength of practitioners at the fighter level after taking them.

However, unlike the latter which can steadily improve one small realm, the Qi-training Pill can only help the fighter realm practitioners break through the bottleneck between small realms with a high probability, and cannot guarantee that the strength will be improved.

But even so, as a second-grade advanced elixir, the difficulty of refining the Qi-training Pill is definitely not easy!
In theory, when the Alchemist Guild conducts a grade assessment, they usually randomly select pills for the candidates to refine for assessment, and they will usually only select pills that are ranked in the lower or middle range of that grade.

This Qi-training Pill is really a challenge for newcomers who are trying to upgrade their grades!

Liu Xi's eyes swept over the medicinal materials needed for refining pills placed next to the stone platforms of other candidates. It was obvious to him that the pills that the candidates other than him were taking were only low-level or mid-level second-grade pills.

Ha! This Yuan Huan's methods are really dirty...

Liu Xi sneered in his heart, took a deep breath, took out his medicine cauldron from the storage ring, slowly placed his palm on the fire outlet, and his fighting spirit suddenly burst out from his palm.

Honestly speaking, this is a shameless loss!

After all, the Alchemist Guild has not explicitly stipulated that in the alchemist grade assessment, the pills randomly selected for the candidates to be refined must be selected from the lower or middle range of pills of that grade.

Moreover, in the history of the Alchemist Guild, there have been cases where the assessment elixir was a mid-to-high-level or even top-level elixir of that grade.

Even if he told this to his teacher Yan Yong, Yan Yong probably wouldn't be able to do anything to Yuan Huan, and it would be useless to make a fuss about it.

Yuan Huan must have taken this into consideration, which is why he did it so obviously and even swung in front of him. He must have intended to disgust him on purpose!
"Okay! Yuan Huan, right? I'll remember this mistake. I'll have to stay in Chuancheng for a few days to deal with family matters. You'll have to cry someday!"

The thought flashed through his mind for the last time, and then Liu Xi focused his mind and concentrated his attention on the few feet area around the medicine cauldron in front of him.

-

Wutan City.

East of the city.

Xiao family, inside the central building complex.

Xiao Xun'er, dressed in an elegant green dress, pursed her lips and returned to her courtyard in a bad mood.

The gate of the courtyard was closed, and she sat gracefully on the rattan swing in the courtyard. She stepped on the ground below with her delicate feet, and the rattan swing began to sway back and forth with a creaking sound.

One after another.

I don’t know how long it swayed.

In the corner, Ling Ying walked out from the swirling black fog.

Glancing at his young lady who was worried, Ling Ying hesitated for a while before finally speaking:

"Miss, Xiao Yan may have some misunderstanding about you..."

On the swing, Xiao Xun'er heard the voice, glanced at Ling Ying coldly, but said nothing.

Seeing this, Ling Ying wisely shut his mouth, and his figure blended into the darkness of the corner again, disappearing without a trace.

Hey!
crunch~
The swing stopped swinging as Xiao Xun'er's feet landed on the ground again.

There was a hint of sadness on her beautiful face.

Suddenly, she suddenly remembered something someone had once given her.

As her thoughts flashed through her mind, she silently took out the object from her ring.

The white box has a golden tower and rolling mountains on it.

Xiao Xun'er half-closed her eyes, her gaze falling on this so-called cigarette.

After a moment, she pulled out a cigarette and recalled the steps of smoking it that Liu Xi taught her halfway up the mountain.

She slightly opened her little mouth and gently held it between her rosy lips. A cluster of golden, bean-sized flames quietly rose from the tips of her jade fingers.

ba da~
"cough……"

The second time she smoked a cigarette, she was still a little uncomfortable, but after the second and third puffs, she felt much better.

The trace of sorrow between his eyebrows and eyes seemed to gradually dissipate as the gray-white gas was exhaled.
