All-People Beast Taming: I Can See the Evolution Path.

Chapter 27 First-Rank Alchemist

Qingming Chamber of Commerce.

As soon as Ye Fan arrived in the lobby, the waiter greeted him.

"Hey bro, what brings you here again?"

"Oh, I've come to sell some pills!"

Ye Fan responded calmly.

"Pills? Could it be that you turned all the medicinal herbs you bought this morning into pills?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter was immediately surprised and asked.

"Um!"

Ye Fan nodded, then took out a jade bottle containing Qi-restoring pills from his storage ring and handed it to him.

"These are the pills I want to sell. Could you please take a look and tell me the price?"

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go find an alchemist to appraise it."

After taking the jade bottle from Ye Fan, the waiter turned and left.

After a long while, the waiter returned.

"Brother, the quality of your Qi-restoring pills is truly excellent! Master Wu from our chamber of commerce praised them highly after seeing them! And the effect on restoring spiritual energy is also quite remarkable!"

"That's good. How much are all these Qi-restoring pills worth in total?"

Ye Fan asked.

"One and a half million star coins!"

The waiter called out a number.

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan began to calculate in his mind.

He only spent 500,000 star coins when he bought these medicinal herbs. Now, after refining them into Qi-restoring pills and selling them, he made a full million stars coin after deducting the costs!

Thinking of this, Ye Fan couldn't help but sigh: being an alchemist is truly a profession that can make you rich overnight!

"If you don't think it's feasible, we can discuss it further!"

Seeing that Ye Fan had not responded for a long time, the waiter spoke again.

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile, "No need, no need! One million five hundred thousand it is, just transfer it directly to my star card."

Under normal circumstances, he might have been able to negotiate a higher price, but not now! He had to go to the Alchemist Association later for his alchemist level assessment, and missing it would be a huge loss! After all, 1.5 million star coins wasn't much in his eyes. He could earn more by hunting a few ferocious beasts in the Black Demon Mountains! However, hunting ferocious beasts was risky, while alchemy was much safer. Moreover, some high-grade pills were priceless; even if he killed all the ferocious beasts in the Black Demon Mountains, he probably wouldn't be able to match their value!

"Please wait a moment!"

A moment later.

Ye Fan then received a text message notification that 1.5 million star coins had been deposited into his account.

Ye Fan checked it and, after confirming that it was correct, headed towards the Alchemist Association.

Alchemists' Guild

Ye Fan noticed that although there weren't many people here, they were all dressed in fine clothes, clearly wealthy individuals.

"Hello, could you please tell me where the Level One Alchemist assessment is held?"

Ye Fan walked to the front desk and asked the staff.

"Just go into the first room on the left. If you go now, you should still make it in time."

"Thanks!"

After thanking him, Ye Fan walked towards the room where the assessment was being conducted.

Upon entering the room, all that could be heard was a low cough.

"Ahem, everyone participating in the First-Rank Alchemist Assessment, are you all ready?"

At this moment, an old man with a flowing white beard stood up, looked at the crowd, and asked.

"Ready!"

Everyone responded in unison.

"Very good. Now that you're ready, let's begin the assessment. For this Grade One Alchemist assessment, you only need to refine one finished Grade One pill to pass! The assessment time is one hour. Let's begin!"

After the old man finished speaking, he casually lay down on the rocking chair to rest.

Seeing this, Ye Fan quickly found a spot to begin the assessment.

Looking at the various medicinal herbs on the table, Ye Fan frowned and pondered for a moment before finally deciding to refine the Qi Gathering Pill.

Ye Fan was no stranger to Qi Gathering Pills. Not long ago, he relied on Qi Gathering Pills given to him by Wang Chaoyang to break through to the Spirit Awakening Realm and become a Beast Tamer, which led to his achievements today.

The refining of Qi Gathering Pills is not complicated; compared to Qi Returning Pills, it can even be said to be quite simple.

He chose to refine the Qi Gathering Pill for two reasons: first, he didn't want to reveal too much of his strength; second, refining the Qi Gathering Pill would ensure that he could pass the test smoothly.

After gathering all the necessary medicinal materials for refining the Qi Gathering Pill, Ye Fan began the refining process.

Twenty minutes later, Ye Fan finished refining a Qi Gathering Pill and handed it to the old man.

After the old man picked up the pill and examined it carefully, his expression became somewhat strange.

"Are you sure you're here to be tested as a first-grade alchemist?"

Ye Fan nodded upon hearing this.

"This is truly interesting! The quality of your Qi Gathering Pill is almost comparable to that of one I, a second-grade alchemist, could refine!"

The old man looked at Ye Fan with a strange expression and muttered something.

"Yeah?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was overjoyed.

If what the old man said is true, then wouldn't he be able to try refining second-grade pills very soon?

Immediately, Ye Fan hurriedly asked, "Old sir, will my pill pass the assessment for a first-grade alchemist?"

"Of course!"

After saying that, the old man took out a badge from his storage ring and handed it to him.

The badge was golden in color and featured a soaring dragon engraved on it, with a small silver star beside the dragon.

"Sir, what's the use of this badge?"

Ye Fan asked.

"Sometimes I really wonder how you obtained the alchemist's legacy. Don't you even have this basic common sense? Didn't your elders tell you?"

Seeing that Ye Fan didn't even recognize the alchemist's badge, the old man immediately asked.

Upon hearing the old man's question, Ye Fan knew that he regarded him as a scion of a prominent family.

So he quickly began to explain.

"Sir, you misunderstand! I am not from a noble family, so no one has told me what this badge means."

"You're not from a prestigious family? Then where did you get your alchemy skills?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan told him about the origin of the alchemist's notes.

"I see. I didn't expect you to be the top student in this year's academy exam! No wonder the Beast Taming Academy instructor gave you the alchemist's notes."

After listening to Ye Fan's explanation, the old man stroked his beard and sighed.

"Alright, today I'll tell you the meaning of this badge. It's a badge exclusive to alchemists! Only those who pass the alchemist examination will receive it! See the star next to the dragon? You're currently a first-grade alchemist, so you only have one star. If one day you become a ninth-grade alchemist, then there will be nine stars next to the dragon!"

The old man explained.

"I see, I understand now!"

Ye Fan nodded.

"Alright! Now that you've passed the test, hurry up and leave. Don't disturb the others' tests!"

The old man waved his hand, signaling Ye Fan to leave quickly.

"Um!"

Ye Fan nodded upon hearing this.

He then left the Alchemist Association and headed home.
