"Teacher, when will Ye Lanyu and the others be back? They're almost ready to enter the Holy City to prepare!" a student asked the strongman leader.
This is the tenth day since they entered the city. Ye Lanyu and the other two girls have not returned since their first day at the Muddleheaded Hall, and seem to have forgotten the purpose of their visit.
Not only did the training not take place, but they also didn't show up when we were about to head to the inner city of the Holy City!
Their entry into the inner city of the Holy City does not mean that the inner city is open. Rather, it means that participating teams from various academies across the continent can enter the inner city of the Holy City in advance to prepare after going through a series of procedures.
As a participating team, we naturally enjoy different privileges!
"I don't know when they'll be back, but we don't need to wait for them. Let's go straight to the Holy City. I'm sure they can enter without any formalities!" The strongman leader frowned slightly, but didn't seem to care much as he replied.
The student looked outside and then asked, "Why? The Holy City isn't closed to the public; we still needed to obtain special privileges before we could enter! Does she have to wait until it opens to the public?"
The strongman leader waved his hand and said, "No need to wait. Don't you all know who came here to deliver the message? And haven't you heard or seen Ye Lang's prestige here?"
"Who delivered the message?" Some of the trainees hadn't noticed this and thought that the person who delivered the message that night was just an ordinary errand boy.
"He's Knights of Light, and a high-ranking one at that, with Earth Grade strength!" the strongman leader exclaimed.
"What?! No way..." The student was a little surprised, no, extremely surprised!!
"You can ask Ye Zhiqin about this, she'll definitely know! Think about it, even high-ranking Knights of Light are doing errands, so what difficulty would it be for them to enter the Holy City at this time?" the strongman leader said.
"Also, didn't you notice how the Knights of Light address Ye Lang? They all use the respectful title of 'Young Master'! It's not just the Knights of Light; it seems the entire Holy City does the same. They either call Ye Lang 'Young Master' or 'Divine Physician,' all with respect!"
One of the students nodded and said, "Yes! That's right!! Ye Lang is one of the most respected people here! In the past few days, we've also heard legends about him. His alchemy and medical skills have reached a god-like level, and almost no one can shake his position!"
"I'd heard before that Ye Lang was an alchemical genius, but I was a little skeptical. It seems I have to believe it this time!"
"Hmm, it seems that this time, our Ye Family Academy will undoubtedly win in the alchemy group!"
No one seems to doubt Ye Lang's victory in the alchemy competition. Even the other alchemy competitors cannot deny this fact, except for those who are unaware of Ye Lang's strength.
Alchemists are a relatively rare profession, and at Ye Lang's age, no one can stand at the same level as Ye Lang. Those who can be with Ye Lang are all senior alchemists, who are already quite old and naturally not at the student level.
At this time, whether it was the teams that arrived one after another or the teams that had arrived earlier, they all heard about Ye Lang, just like the Ye Clan team, and knew that there was a genius alchemist in their generation.
Of course, everyone also knows one thing: Ye Lang is not very good at martial arts or magic, and he is a useless person with Attribute-less by nature!
However, at this point, no one dared to mock him as a good-for-nothing, because no one could claim to be more talented than this good-for-nothing!
Even without Battle Qi and magic, so what? He is already a hero with powerful alchemy, and what am I?
Even though this continent places great emphasis on Battle Qi and magic, and uses it to measure status, outstanding individuals in all walks of life are still respected, especially alchemists like Ye Lang. Although alchemists are relatively rare, they are still quite popular.
As for medical skills, needless to say, everyone is bound to get sick. Even if magic can cure them, if there is a rare or difficult disease, it is still necessary to rely on these doctors.
Among these groups, there were some who were already paying attention to Ye Lang. Upon hearing the news, their reactions varied: some were happy, some were indignant, and some...
The only common reaction was shock!
Among these teams were the top three regular teams: the First Academy, the Violet Academy of the Aila Empire, and the Royal Academy of the Soaring Sky Empire. They were more concerned about Ye Lang there were people in their teams who knew him!
As the central figure in this incident, our classmate Ye Lang was completely unaware of the situation. He was simply happily robbing the rich in the Muddleheaded Hall and then spending lavishly to cure the illnesses of the poor.
Don't think that Ye Lang's treatments are free; on the contrary, they are very expensive. He needs a lot of materials, many of which are precious.
These materials were originally provided by the Holy City. The Holy City's material warehouses have been stockpiled for thousands of years. They can find as much as you need, no matter what kind of material it is!
Even Ye Lang was envious of this place, because there were some things that even he, a super Prodigal Son, couldn't buy, because these things were not available on the market.
These materials were all available for Ye Lang to use without any charge. However, Ye Lang did not want to take advantage of this and purchased them with money of equal or higher market value.
At the same time, he also asked the people of the Holy City to help him purchase materials, so that his previously empty rings now have more, although most of them are alchemical materials used in medicine.
As for the source of his funds, that goes without saying; many people are heartbroken...
Perhaps because of this, Ye Lang used his own materials, so he didn't owe the Holy City any favors and wouldn't need to repay them in the future. This time, only the Holy City owed him a favor.
Sometimes I think that being Prodigal Son has its advantages. At least, Prodigal Son never owes anyone a favor. Others owe the Prodigal Son only others, excluding family members, of course.
Prodigal Son like Ye Lang squander their money, sometimes even giving favors to their families. This kind of Prodigal Son has reached a level beyond the reach of others!
Ye Lang's current act of robbing money is also a transaction, and there will be no delays in payment. Transactions are contradictory; they are unfair, yet also fair...
It all depends on each person's thoughts and values!
