Chapter 720 Alchemist Exam (5)



The next morning, Lin Fan got out of bed early to prepare for the day that came.

It was Friday, so it was time for them to take the alchemist exam.

After dinner last night, Lin Fan helped Xiao Tu carry the drunk president back to his room in the Hunters Organization building before Xiao Tu showed them to their rooms.

Then before Xiao Tu could escape, Angela and Yuki caught her and brought her into their room to sleep with her.

That left Lin Fan alone in the hall, forcing him to go sleep by himself in an empty room.

After getting up, Lin Fan got up to prepare breakfast for the girls who hadn’t woken up yet.

However, when he came out, he found the president who was standing outside in the hall near their rooms.

The president wasn’t just standing there in the hall like a normal person, but rather he was hiding behind a potted plant, staring at the door to the room that Xiao Tu, Angela, and Yuki were in.

Lin Fan shook his head when he saw this and he silently came up behind the president before saying, “So this is what the president does in his free time?”

The president suddenly jolted when he heard this and quickly stood up as he said, “Well I just came to check up on you, but it seems that you’re already up.”

Lin Fan gave a nod before saying, “How about we go prepare some breakfast before they wake up?”

The president gave a nod along with a cough before saying, “Yes, let’s go do that.”

The two of them quickly headed off to prepare breakfast and when they came back, they found that the girls had woken up.

Since they were all awake, all five of them decided to have breakfast together.

During this time, the president kept staring at Xiao Tu with a sad look.

That was because other than greeting him, she spent all her time with Angela and Yuki. The way that she was smiling and enjoying herself was something that she had never shown with him, which made him feel like his little girl was leaving him.

It was just a good thing that the president’s secretary came to take him away after breakfast or else he surely would have followed them to the Alchemist King Hall branch.

Since they were done with breakfast, they also headed out to take their alchemist exam.

It was still around nine and the exam started at ten, but Lin Fan had them head right to the Alchemist King Hall to prepare.

The exam would be taken in groups, so it was better to see which group they were in before taking the exam. Especially with what happened yesterday.

Lin Fan didn’t believe that the young master would let things end just like that.

However, when he saw the groups for the exam, he was surprised.

The young master hadn’t been placed in Lin Fan’s group, but rather he had been placed in the same group as Yuki.

It seemed like this young master was using his brains.

He knew that he wasn’t able to do anything to Lin Fan because he already knew that Lin Fan was a Hunter. Lin Fan had already found out the young master’s family background from the president, so he knew that the young master wouldn’t dare mess with him after finding out that he was a Hunter.

So the only person that he could mess with was Yuki since he knew that Yuki wasn’t a Hunter.

But it was just too bad that his guess was wrong.

Yuki was the one that he couldn’t offend because when it came to alchemy skills, she far surpassed Lin Fan.

After all, her cultivation was in a realm that was far beyond Lin Fan’s realm and her alchemy skills were the same. She was the one that was the harder one to defeat out of the two of them.

After seeing these groups, Xiao Tu turned to look at Yuki with a worried look as she asked, “Big sister Yuki, are you going to be already? He’s almost certainly going to play some tricks to make it harder for you.”

Yuki’s heart melted when she saw Xiao Tu’s worried face and then she was filled with fighting will as she said, “Big sister will show you how to beat down a bully like that.”

Lin Fan had a bad premonition when he heard this and he quickly came in between the two, pulling Yuki aside to have a private conversation.

While Yuki was unwilling, she wasn’t willing to act too strongly in front of Xiao Tu, so she followed Lin Fan to the side.

Once they were alone, she glared at him and asked, “What is it?”

Lin Fan revealed an awkward look and asked, “You know that you can’t kill him right?”

Seeing the surprised look on Yuki’s face, Lin Fan was glad that he had chosen to intervene.

Lin Fan then said with a sigh and a more firm tone, “You can’t kill him, even if you do it by accident.” Seeing that she didn’t look convinced, he added, “If you do, you won’t be the only one who they will move against, they’ll also plot against Xiao Tu since they already know about her relationship with us and the relationship she has with that young master.”

,m Yuki finally revealed a hesitant look.

She didn’t care if they plotted against her since she could easily take care of anyone that came after her, but it wasn’t as if she could stay with Xiao Tu forever to protect her. So if her actions caused harm to Xiao Tu, she wouldn’t be able to live with herself.

After a moment of silence, Yuki pursed her lips and asked, “Then what do you want me to do?”

Lin Fan gave a nod when he saw this and then he came closer to say in a lower voice, “You know that technique, right? Then when you’re taking the test, just…”

…

When they came back, Yuki had a wide smile on her face and she looked at Xiao Tu to say, “Just watch your big sister take care of that jerk for you!”

Xiao Tu didn’t understand what was happening, but she was so swept up in Yuki’s positivity that she just smiled along and said, “Un, big sister, you can do it!”

Both Angela and Yuki couldn’t take it anymore and pulled Xiao Tu into their embrace again.

Lin Fan just shook his head as he gave a sigh.

Time passed and it was time for the alchemist exam.

Since this was different from the Monster Tamer exam, the way that it was held was also different.

Since this was a monthly event, they went all out in the venue.

There was a large arena prepared and Lin Fan and Yuki were brought to large waiting rooms where there were already plenty of people gathered.

It seemed like there were quite a few people who took these exams each month.π—ˆπ—π”©xt.𝑐𝑂π”ͺ

They quickly found the young master from yesterday in the waiting room, but surprisingly, the young master completely ignored them. He just turned to his subordinate who had come in with him to say a few things before sitting down and closing his eyes, as if he was preparing for the exam.

Lin Fan and Yuki both ignored this and waited for their turn to be called to the stage.

Lin Fan was in the fifth round while Yuki was in the third round, so she was called to the stage before he was.

Along with her went the young master from yesterday.

He didn’t say anything to her, he didn’t even look at her as he walked into the corridor that led to the stage.

Lin Fan made sure to ask one more time, “You’re sure you know what to do, right?”

Yuki impatiently waved her hand at him and said, “I know, I know, stop being so annoying!”

Then she headed out to the stage.

There was a monitor that was set up in the waiting room, so Lin Fan could only watch with bated breath. He hoped that she wouldn’t go too far.

…

After being brought out, Yuki’s group were sent to their own stations.

When Yuki arrived at her station, she couldn’t help knitting her brows.

While the station looked like it was the same as the other stations, it was clear that hers had been tampered with. However, she didn’t let any emotion show on her face as she took her place.

The judge came to the center of the stage and then said, “The rules of this first round are very simple. You have a recipe on the table in front of you and all the ingredients you need to make that pill. You will be given an hour and as long as the pill that you make can reach the normal standards, you will pass this first round.”

The rules were very simple and expected, so the judge didn’t waste that much time before starting the round.

However, when the judge walked off the stage to watch from the side, Yuki didn’t miss the slight nod that the judge gave to the young master.

It seemed like the corruption ran deep in the Alchemy King Hall.

However, none of that mattered to her.

Their interference was nothing more than adding a bit of impurities to her ingredients and tampering with her tools so that they weren’t as effective as the others. That was the limit of what they could do.

But in front of her skills, none of that mattered.
